Nimbuzz or Fring Possible?

---

Hi,

I need to install either Fring or Nimbuzz on my HTC Touch Pro 2 so that I can receive VOIP calls. I installed fring, however it is unable to connect to WLAN. I turned off all the security on my router and it still couldn't connect, so I'm guessing that fring does not yet support this phone.

The touch pro 2 was not found in the list of Nimbuzz's supported phones either. Has anyone managed to get this phone to work with either Fring or Nimbuzz? If not does anyone know of a suitable alternative?

Nimbuzz

Hi Darrenultra.

I have Nimbuzz working fine. Haven't had a chance to test VoIP calls though.

I have Fring working and VoIP configured too on 3G as well as WiFi. No probs.

Fring is what I would really like to get working ....glad to see that it is possible.

Did you download Fring directly to your phone by visiting www.fring.com/cab? Or did you do it some other way? I'm wondering if I maybe there are more than one Windows Mobile versions.

Fring seemed to install fine for me. However it is unable to find either my Wifi connection, or that of my neighbours. Instead when I try and start Fring I get a screen which says:

'Please Select Connection
Search for WLAN...'

However no WLAN is ever found. Any suggestions as to where I'm going wrong will be most welcome.

...there is one other thing that I forgot to mention.

I'm a bit worried that even when I do get fring working it is going to encounter some problems. The Touch Pro 2 tends to go into standby mode after sitting around for a minute or so. Will it still be possible for me to receive incoming calls on fring when it is in standby?

Any ideas?

I guess you must have tried the standard route of un-installing Fring and then soft reset and then re-installing Fring?

I would say turn your wifi on, launch Pocket IE. Go to fring.com and download the cab file directly. Install it. It will (should) sense the WiFi connection and take you further.

Hope this helps.

I've got the same problem... I guess just have to wait for updated version of fring before wifi issue can be solved.

I removed Nimbuzz because I found it chewed through my battery - it was insane. I could get through 1.5 days on a charge, but with Nimbuzz, I'd be looking for a powerpoint by midday on day 1. Love the app but not at that cost!

go to nimbuzz web site.choose your phone az touch pro..it work fine on pro2.no screen size problem..bud i didn't use VOIP calls yet.

I installed fring v3.35.3.248, works well... give it a try... http://www.fring.com/versions/#Windows
