hey
i was just wondering, can you access MSN messenger through WAP?
thanks very much for your help
jay
That's an easy one - Yes
How? very interested. As I am on Cinglar in the US and they subscribe to neither of the services, provided by Microsoft to Verizon(only) or AIM to various service providers.
How do you access these services via WAP? or what would be even better is how do you access these services via SMS if your service provider has not licensed the SMS/WAP IM Client for their network?
Please let me know this would be very 8)
Prophetor: click some of these, and you'll be happy:

On a more general note, and definitely not just for Prophetor:
Asketh not a forum what thou can asketh Google.
hhhmmm using MSN messenger though SMS would mean it would have to send sms in a seroius way one ever so often to tell your status
and one to you to tell you the status of everybody else
not sure but here a SMS is pretty expensive compared to GPRS if you count bandwidth and time used on the system

One thing that I didn't like about Sprint is that it didn't offer a desktop redirector software for e-mail. In my case, my company uses MS Exchange, but doesn't have OWA setup for my phone to be able to sync. Alltel and ATT I know for sure have desktop redirector software, not sure what ATT calls it but Alltel calls it "Office Sync". It basically just redirects your Exchange features (email, calander, tasks, ect) to your phone.
I have no idea how long Seven has had their beta program open, but I recently found it and it works great. So if anyone else was in my boat, have fun with this. Here is the link.

I was in the same boat as you, I came from Verizon Wireless where I was using their Wireless Sync program on my desktop since my company does not allow me to go directly to our Exchange servers. I thought when I went over to Sprint they would have a comparable application - I didn't do my homework very well. I was not so worried about losing wireless sync for calendar, tasks, and notes, ActiveSync when I get the chance is fine. Email was another thing. My solution, which was not so elagant, was to setup a server based rule to redirect all email out to my personal pop3 email account which I setup especially for this purpose using the same name as work, just a different @ address. This insures that my email responses contain a from address as close as possible to my work address.
That having been said, you are the first person who has proposed anything similar to VZ Wireless Sync. I am anxious to try this out but am sceptical about using beta software. I will investigate the company you provided with caution. Any additional insights would greatly be appreciated. Thanks again for a least giving hope....
Try mail2web.com.
Just forward your mail there.
They are a free exchange service.

Let me know what you think. This solution was perfect for me, no problems at all, works great all the time.
Brief Introduction:
BlackBerry Connect allows you to have access to the BlackBerry's push e-mail functions as well as receive BlackBerry Messenger IMs from BlackBerry users. This program does not allow you to send new IMs from your device.
BlackBerry Application Suite (BAS) allows you to run a virtual BlackBerry on your Windows Mobile device. This allows you to access the functions of many BlackBerry applications including BlackBerry Messenger, but is currently being testing on on GSM models.
Now, my main goal is to find someone that can allow BlackBerry Messenger to have full functionality on a Windows Mobile CDMA device. I don't care about any other application.
Can anybody take on this project and succeed? Theoretically it is possible we just need someone with the knowledge to do it.
Who can help out the many that are unable to help themselves?
bump any news on this?

I believe this would require someone at RIM to be involved as you would need a BlackBerry PIN number, which would get you access to their server. There is an app out there which allows you to receive BB messages but other than what has been developed by RIM nothing I am aware of that will allow you to send.
It's not possible on any non-RIM device.
The PIN you get when you sign up for bb-connect is only used an as a means of identifying your account in the RIM provisioning tool.

I've begun to notice that Yahoo and Gmail have been telling me there have been access from Germany such as 195.124.9.241, which comes up as Verizon Germany and I see the word social hub in there somewhere too.
Unfortunately there have been spam email sent from my inboxes to my contacts and the times of sending email corresponds exactly to one of the times while "logged in" from Germany.
Question is, does Samsung really route all it's requested data traffic from users in the UK through Germany? And do you think my phone/samsung emails been hacked or what?
Thanks
same problem here... what is it???
i was curious about that and did a tiny amount of research and found out that verizon germany only exists for companies and government agencies and looking up the ip address gave me this: http://www.ip-adress.com/ip_lokalisieren/195.124.9.241 as a first result. it says that it is SAMSUNG SDS EUROPE LTD (nat-egress-g-01.fra.samsungsocialhub.com). so it seems that your account has not been hacked but that is an actual route for the social hub.
however, spam sent from your email address can still happen, depending on what you did with your address. if you ever posted your address openly on the internet, you are likely to receive spam, but also to be used to send spam. there are so many ghostmailers out there, that don't require your actual login credentials to use your address as a sender and also there are many apps on the market that request to many rights. simple free card games request the right to send sms, call, and read out your imei, contacts and existing sms. that is malware that is able to grab your contacts' information.
also, these days, people tend to care less about privacy, just have a look at the google+ threads and the dozens of people openly posting their email address for millions to read and for bots to grab. facebook and google live from selling your personal information as well.
in conclusion: by not being careful it might easily happen that you give your contacts' email addressses away to receive spam, and your own to send spam, but that does not necessarily mean, someone else actually has access to your google account or whatever email provider you use besides google. but since there is of course still a chance that your account might be hacked, you should still change your passwords for your email account and every site you use with that account (as people that read your inbox might have read what you do on the internet and got that password as well).
I was looking at this free Kingsoft Office and here is what it lists among its required permissions:
"Access email provider data
Allows this application to access your email database, including received messages, sent messages, usernames and passwords."
It seems highly suspicious to me even without the usernames and passwords part. Can anyone explain? Should I stay away from such apps? Thanks!
The app is in Google Play, I can't give the link because I'm a new user.
OK, so I take it nobody cares why an app downloaded millions of times would ask for these things? To me it seems like a huge risk, so good thing I'm not using it. The developers didn't bother to answer my email either. Great! Check permissions very carefully before you install an app, people!
Hi!
I have a rooted Xperia M dual (C2005) with factory firmare (4.2.2). Installed Afwall+ and blocked all network activity except Firefox and K9mail.
But there is still network usage (Android OS).
There is a blog post about this, but I can't link it. Google on "How to debug/examine data usage leaks in Android using iptables"
Does somebody have an idea how can I block these types of data transfer?
Thank you,
Tim

Last time this kind of issue popped up from a few days ago, it was because of tethering. Do you tether? And sometimes the Android OS reads traffic from other apps and is included there. Like for instance, you use K-9. If you use it to access your Google account for mail, that could explain the data traffic there. I'm not an expert in these matters though, so might be a better answer out there.

Hi, es0tericcha0s!
Thank you for the answer. No teething, no Google mail, absolutely no Google account registered on the phone.
Why could a @gmail e-mail account in a 3rd parity e-mail client make traffic on the OS level?
Cheers,
Tim

Weird. Can't even imagine not having a Google account on my devices. lol But most of the IP addresses were Google's so, was assuming that the OS would detect that and thought it might be linked to a Google account and you mentioned having 2 apps and one of them was an email. Stretching a bit for the answer. lol But android is funny and doesn't necessarily work the same across different updates, carriers, and manufacturers, so this kind of stuff can be tricky.
probably google giving the NSA access to your phone
