Live Messenger Final?

[dmxl]

Hi there.

With Black 2.5, Live Messenger final seems to be included, according the release specs. I posted questions regarding Live Messenger Final over there, but since that thread is flooded with posts, I 'm asking here.

I know the beta version had a problem. It would connect to gprs, also when a wifi connection was available.

Besides this, I wonder if the final version of Live messenger still syncs it's contacts with the phone contacts.

Thanks

Is there someone willing to answer these questions? Thanks :)

New live messenger got a new option wether to merge windows live contacts with outlook contacts or untick if you dont want to so as not to include your mesenger contact

I do not know if the version present in Black 2.5 is final but i can answer the other questions:
-WM Live on black 2.5 still try to use the GPRS connexion when wifi is available; just cancel the GPRS connexion and it goes automaticely through wifi.
-WM live on black 2.5 still sync MSN contact to phone.

Thanks for answering!
Terrible piece of crappy software then. Disconnecting the GPRS connection doesn't work for me. It keeps trying to connect.

There's also no workaround for the msn contact sync to phone?

To get around the GPRS issue, create a new connection called 'fake' and leave that defaulted. That way it'll never connect to the GPRS. But when you are out and about and want GPRS/3G again, just go to connections and drop down to what your usual connection is. This works a treat and saves a lot when the 3G randomly decides to connect when I don't wan it!

Thanks for your reply/workaround. I cannot believe we have to work around this bug.

Do you know of any way to disable Live Messenger from adding it's contacts to the pocket outlook contacts?

Thanks.

If creating the "fake" GPRS connection doesn't do it for you, I use http://www.modaco.com/New-FREE-Utility-t246171.html

Guys, thanks for your help. Though I still wonder if there isn't a way to disable Live Messenger from throwing all it's contacts in the phone contacts...

Sure there is.

De-install the WindowsLive mail account from pOutlook.
Re-add it.
In the setup, be sure to UNCHECK the box to sync contacts. Choose only to sync emails.

Well, I guess this all assumes that you have an email account as well as a messenger account, but it should work for you.

I don't have an e-mail account with hotmail no. Thanks for your workaround. I'll try later.

I cannot seem to be able to "remove/delete" the Live Messenger Mail account from the accounts tab? By holding on the "Windows Live" account the delete option is greyed out :( How did you do it?

Im using CUSTEL 1.3 ROM atm with its built in Live Messenger. Does it only apply to the Live Messenger Final cab posted?
