any IM which works with TZone 5.99 plan

[pratikgr]

Do we know any IM which works with TZone 5.99 plan.

I tried Skype and IM+ but none of them worked.

I am also not sure what are the setting needed for Skype.

Any one tried ebuddy? It's java based but I think it goes over SMS not the proxy.

Can anyone help for any IM which works for TZone 5.99 plan.

I use the hacked version of Aim 2.0. All you need to do is set the port to 110 in the program settings, and it should work, as long as your connected to EDGE.

lol i don't suppose there's a hack to enable full internet connectivity with the $5.99 plan is there? i hate paying $30 more for tmobile total internet when i'm already paying $100 for the family plan...

[xkookooman]

Ya there is. I don't know if there's a guide but it's been going on for a while now. Just change ur proxy to point at 216.155.165.50:8080 for the T-mobile data, under Https. It should work. Not sure if it's slower than the more expensive one, but I'm using it right now.

hey, i did what you said and internet explorer now works fine, instant messenger programs works fine too and so does microsoft live search with traffic info! nice! but my pop3 mail doesnt work :*( and that's an important one... any idea how i can get my pop emails in messaging using the above connection? THANKS!

[xkookooman]

I don't think Pop3 will work with the 5.99 plan. Only http/https. If you want , you can use the blackberry plan for $20 by changing ur phone model on your t-mobile account page, then adding the blackberry internet plan.

On your phone, go to Messaging and select the email account you set up previously. Hit next until you get to "Server information" then click the options button. Make sure the proxy-enabled connection is selected in the drop box. All of my POP3 accounts work fine on the 5.99 plan. :)

lol your a ~!#$^&* genius! *HUGS* AND *KISSES* TO YOU !!! :D

your suggestion didnt EXACTLY work since there is no option for the steps you mentioned for windows mobile 6, you must be running wm5, but any how, in wm6 server options there is an option to choose what you want to use to connect, and mine was on THE INTERNET, i changed it to T-MOBILE DATA and now pop3 works fine!! WOOOT WOOT !!

THANKS GUYS!!

(now if only i can get my thunderhawk browser to work...., it's like the best freaking browser ever made for windows mobile, you can view full webpages in it's original format and look in 800x600 without needing to scroll constantly, and they also compress the site before sending it to your device which speeds loading of ALL webpages even when your on a crappy t-mobile 2.5g connection... once you tried it, you'll never go back)

nice suggestion, having the $20 blackberry plan would be EXACTLY the same as having the $30 total internet plan right? i wonder why they made the blackberry plans cheaper?

My proxy enabled 'wap' is not there in the list. Just 'work', 'The Internet' and 'T-Mobile MMS'

try, the internet, if that doesnt work, check your connection settings and see if there is a tmobile gprs connection there.

[pratikgr]

Only "Work" is working. I am not sure what is this "Work" but it connects the GPRS. So not sure if I will be getting any data charge, since I only have Tzones plan

you wont get any data charge if you are using tmobile, since they dont even have a 'charge by data usage' plan in the USA that i know of...

[daguru]

Nvgear, glad to be of help! ;)

Pratikgr, the reason why "Work" connects to GPRS is because that's the only connections profile that takes proxy entries. By selecting "The Internet", all data gets routed through the "My ISP" profile (no proxy access).

TmobileWeb/Tzones is a flat charge for data. Although no apps other than the Web and email are supported, I also use it for streaming audio, Google Maps, automatic weather updates, etc.

I use the hacked version of Aim 2.0. All you need to do is set the port to 110 in the program settings, and it should work, as long as your connected to EDGE.

there are two places to put port which one do you put it in?

[frozinwater]

if any of you guys use IM+, you can use AIM using the 5.99 Plan. all you have to do is change the aim port to 110 in the IM+ settings.

i get this to work but for some reason with the touch 2.3 rom im+ doesnt open the dialog windows in order for me to chat. its like it freezes and all i can do it close it.

There is a program called Palringo (http://www.palringo.com/), you are able to add your Aim, Yahoo, Msn, GG, ICQ, XMPP .. services and yes it will connect througn the proxy, all you will have to do is edit the registry yourself or you can import the attached reg file which I exported from my device with the reg entries

[Jamaican]

Sorry forgot to attach the file, well here it is ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,


Sorry had to to remove the reg file, my password was also extracted with the settings .............. the steps to input the settings manually are on the next page

i tried but this did not work

i tried but this did not work

Did you Restart your device, if you did and it still did not work; here are the steps to do it manually

GO Here

HKEY_Current_user ~ Software ~ Palringo ~ Settings

Now edit/add these Strings

1} Name: Connection/Proxy/Host
String: 216.155.165.50

2} Name: Connection/Proxy/Port
String: 8080

3} Name: Connection/Proxy/Type
String: 1


Now Save/exit and Restart your phone .......................................

[nvgear]

i tried the palringo on my pc, it does what it suppose to do and wow it is just about as simple and clean as a chat program can get, too bad there's no customizability what so ever...

anyways do you know how to CHANGE the super annoying beep that the program uses for incoming im sound/alert ? i want to be notify by sound, but that chirp is sure annoying... (desktop pc version not pda version.)


THANKS buddy

good to go thanks

[marscandybars]

Thanks for all the proxy info for Parlingo, but how can we change the AIM ports to 110 on parlingo so i can access AIM?

[nvgear]

thanks for the reg info and palringo jamaican! works like a charm, you rock!

[aad4321]

good to go thanks

This is great, now why the heck cant the registry be edited on the weather program on touch-it so it works with the tzones as well????

[rookie00]

i noticed that the proxy settings only work for me when i start ie and browse to a webpage. why is that?

[martian07]

I have exactly same problem. Parlingo does not start a edge session on its own. If anybody has any idea what could be the problem.

[treo...not!]

Sorry forgot to attach the file, well here it is

Is anyone having trouble connecting to Palringo using the T-Zones proxy?

I'm getting a 403 Forbidden error, assuming that T-Mo caught up to it and shut it down.

thank goodness i've switched to sprint, they are much better... www.sprint.com/sero

for $30 you get 500 anytime minutes UNLIMITED text msg AND unlimited high speed internet, PLUS night and weekend that starts at 7pm.... everyone should switch to spring sero and not deal with the crappy dial up speed tmobile net.

$50 you get 1250 anytime minute rest is the same, just a heads up for those willing to switch, sprint mogul does everything the wing does but got a much faster cpu

Hehe, we're going off topic, but you can't beat my deal. I pay $60 a month for a family plan with 700 minutes, nights and weekends, and internet service to TWO phones. Plus, the Wings cost me a combined $100, with no activation, no taxes, no shipping, and only a one year contract.

But it comes at a price - I could pony up more money for guaranteed Internet access to T-Mo, I just don't find it worth the extra cash.

$60 for 2 phones = the same as my $30 for one, so if i use ur logic, and activated TWO phones, i would have 1000 minutes with the two combined and stil be at $60/mo but remember i got unlimited txt and internet that is LITERALLY 10 times faster! night and weekend start at 7pm not 9pm like tmo

there's no activation or shipping here too... and yes we are going off topic... but my suggestion is another 'option' for some ppl who's got this problem with tzones hehehe

[pbowman]

if you get palringo u dont need a text message plan just edge

There IS a cab floating around for this, and a patched htc home installation.
