I've encountered a few different versions of windows live/windows live search, which is best and fast? i just want the live search function and that's what i seem to have on my tilt right now.

i have windows live for windows mobile 10.6.0034.0800, and all i use it for is the windows live search plugin on the today screen, i dont use my hotmail or messenger. is there a better search function with a today plugin? what do you use?

I'm looking for a version that has MSN/WL Messenger with it, but I can't tell which one has what.

I have Windows Live 10.6.0038.2701
and Live Searce 3.0.3047.24749 :confused:

The version that the above poster is using (10.6.0034.0800) has WLM included, and is the one that I use on every ROM that I install.

Thanks. I'm pretty sure I had that version at one time, but "upgraded" and it was gone. I'll put this one back on (assuming I can find the CAB) :D

i had to hard reset my device twice yesterday after installing the official version from the microsoft site ..

it has some nice new options like disable sync/connecting when roaming ...

but after reset the device would hang in the green windows mobile screen ..

i now found a zip here on the board that works great:

btw google has a today plugin too that works great .. the version released a month or 2 ago had some bugs but i downloaded and installed it today and works fine now.. http://mobile.google.com

Just a FYI for others, some may get Windows Live for Mobile and Live Search for Mobile confused. Windows Live is the app that syncs hotmail, and has the mobile MSN Messinger, which is the one your discribing. Live Search is a differnt app all together.

I've installed Live Search twice from the microsoft link but 'enable speech recognition' is greyed out and no client update is available from the options.....

Am I missing something here to get this working....? :confused:

I believe the ones I have posted here are still the latest.

I use them daily, with voice recognition, e-mail, etc:

Right folks I have just figured out why the voice recognition is greyed out on the windows Live search interface. Now I'm sure some of you have already sussed this but voice recognition is only active for US residents. (not sure why must be configured for an American accent or something). Thankfully I have found a work around all you have to do is set your country of residents to America in the start screen (simple eh). this also seems to still work when you have clicked on the locate me button get a fix on your location.

Hope this helps as it has taken me a few hours of searching around.
