First off, don't do this at all if your Pre was upgraded from 1.1 to 1.2. If you upgraded you will need to run WebOS Doctor to reimage your phone with a clean install of 1.2.

Having done that, download the Messaging Plugins .ipk detailed in the first post in this thread. Fire up WebOS Quick Install and install the .ipk. If you get an error 4 during the install the stop and install Preware and the Package Manager, then try installing the Messaging Plugins again. Don't ask me why, Greg suggested it and it worked for me.

You should know that if this all works you will be able to use MSN Messenger, but AIM will stop working, at least until the devs figure out why, so if AIM is important to you you might want to wait for the issues to be fixed.

On a completely unrelated note, if you appreciate the work that went into this as much as I do, consider making a donation to the project. The link to the PayPal account is in the first post.

Can someone please point me in the direction of Preware and Package Manager? While Im sure they are in the easiest place on earth to locate Ive hunted and cannot seem to find them! I did get the error 4 so apparently I need them. Thanks everyone!

sorli · 10/01/2009, 10:29 AM

Just tried it here, but only using MSN...works though and thanks for the great work!

chile_man · 10/01/2009, 10:30 AM

yahoo and msn both work great

melissasroja · 10/01/2009, 10:30 AM

Ignore me...I found Preware and Package Manager!

chile_man · 10/01/2009, 10:32 AM

lol ignore me... no one is ignoring you but good job for finding preware and package manager

melissasroja · 10/01/2009, 10:33 AM

Does AOL still work at the same time as Yahoo?

maxima2k53 · 10/01/2009, 10:38 AM

so im guessing msn does work with 1.0.3...bc i installed 1.0.1 yesterday and msn didnt even show up

chile_man · 10/01/2009, 10:39 AM

yeah msn does work

chile_man · 10/01/2009, 10:43 AM

Yes AIM YAHOO AND MSN WORK WELL

CheshireFrog · 10/01/2009, 10:44 AM

OK, I installed Messaging Plugins 1.0.3. Like an idiot I didn't delete my Yahoo account first and I ended up with double contacts in the Buddies list for all my Yahoo contacts. Deleted the Yahoo account (twice) and rebooted.

I can verify that MSN and Yahoo are both working, contacts show up fine, online/offline status is accurate, messaging works both directions.

I do not have an AIM account to test with, so I can't verify that AIM and MSN are working together.

To Greg and the individuals who tested this: My hat's off to you. This was the one GLARING ommission in the Pre. If Palm puts this on the App Catalog I will be buying it.

maxima2k53 · 10/01/2009, 10:59 AM

alright guys with 1.0.3...i can say...MSN AIM and Yahoo r working fine at the same time!!!!

great job all the guys that put an effort on this...AMAZING!!!

trim81 · 10/01/2009, 11:18 AM

how are you guys installing this?

via git or web os quick install?

chile_man · 10/01/2009, 11:29 AM

New Version 1.0.3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi everyone,

Good news. Version 1.0.3 has been released which supported WebOS 1.2 updates, fixed AIM and fixes yahoo messaging.

A big big thanks to VeeDubb65 for debugging and thread support!

If you have a Yahoo IM account added please remove this first.

You can install the IPK over the top of the old version.

I am taking some time off over the next 3 days. I will try and get on when I can. Hopefully this version will get everyone up and running while I am away.

New version can be found here Messaging Plugins - Windows Live

Thank you all for your patience.
Greg

You need to download this one first

chile_man · 10/01/2009, 11:29 AM
