I have everything installed. HEre are my issues:

1) Yahoo works (can create account / sign in)
2) Facebook login doesn't work
3) MSN login doesn't work
4) When I click on the "offline" button and make it say available --- it does nothing and stays offline

hrm.... i read in an earlier part of the thread to create a new random MSN profile and link accounts ? is this a way around it ?

btw to sign into msn...even though it says screen name...i recommend u add the @hotmail.com after ur screen name...and if this plugin doesnt work i also recommend not going crazy it is a beta plugin or probably even alpha...if it doesnt work then just remove all ur accounts u created and remove the plugin thru device management

EDIT: remember facebook doesnt work yet or probably wont work at all till palm implements this...the only ones that i have on my pre that work are aim msn and yahoo...havent tried the rest

ok a reboot seemed to fix everything. Facebook chat and other seem to work. but still the ONLY thing I want to work is MSN and it is not working - says cannot connect to server try again.

I am thinking this is because my MSN list is too big. I mean it's massive, hundreds if not thousands of contacts. could this be a reason ?

my yahoo ID has a few hundred and i could not get it to work - made a new "phone ID" and that one with only a couple contacts works great - soo yes, a huge contact list may be a problem

I suspected as much. Now is there a way around that ? like creating another account from scratch and "linking" it to that one?
or am i screwed.

Just an update for folks following this project:

Greg has pushed 1.0.5 out to his testers, and after some initial hickups with the wrong packages being pushed, it looks like 1.0.5 is a real champ.

I have tested it as extensively as I can, and it looks great. No install errors, fully functional.

It includes support for Google Talk, AIM, Yahoo, Jabber, Sametime, Live Messenger, ICQ and Live Communicator. If you're upgrading from a past version, Facebook will still show up, but will not work properly.

It's 100% up to Greg and the guys from webos-internals, but IMO, this release is ready for the public feeds. It's really excellent work.

Either way, I'm sure it will be available here soon, provided that the other testers have a similar experience with it.

sorry if this has been talked about but i havent seen anything related to it. ive used this app for MSN (only) since i got my pre about a month ago or so. it installed fine, and worked fine untill 1-2days ago. i can still login, see everything fine, but now can only recieve msgs, when i try to send a msg, the text for it just stays grey and the contact does not get the msg. any ideas? thank again for the great app

This has been discussed a bit, but I'm not sure there's a solid explanation yet. (I'll admit that I haven't read every post)

Have you recently installed any patches?

Have you had the issue with repeated 1.2.1 updates?

Have you left yourself logged in from another location?

The thing is, that 'most' people are simply able to use this package without any serious difficulties.

Worst comes to worse, the newest testing version, which Greg says will be released as soon as he get's some specific feedback from one of his other testers, seems to be extremely smooth.

In the mean time, you might simply try reinstalling it through WOSQI.

i guess i should just reinstall to test it out, but no issues with repeat updates, msn @ home was closed, and no new patches (just updates). like i said ill try the reinstall and see if that fixes it. thanks

E: tried a reinstall and msg's still won't send. when i reinstalled tho, all my seetings for msn where still saved, should they have been cleared and i just did it wrong?
