1. Install Google Talk on your BB.

2. Install Miranda (Jabber Client) on your system.

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/m...3.exe?download

3.Unzip the following archive to the Miranda directory under Program Files.

http://www.lastwebpage.de/pictureuploads/ssldll.rar

4.Setup Miranda to connect to the Jabber network using the following instructions.

http://www.google.com/support/talk/b...y?answer=24885

5. Connect to Jabber in Miranda.

6. Once connected click on the crown icon at the top of the screen.

7. Select "Jabber", then select "Agents..."

8. Enter jabber.anywise.com into the "Jabber Server" box and click "Browse"

9. You should now see a list of services. Select the network you would like to connect to.

10. Click "Register".

11. Enter your login for that network and click "Register" again.

12. If you receive a successful registration your contacts from the new network should start showing up in Miranda and on your BB if it is logged in.

13. Repeat for each network.

Hope this helps.

Another method:

The first method using Miranda was the easiest way for me to connect.

When using Psi, I would always get stuck at “Next, go to Service Discovery and browse the Jabber server ursine.ca and you’ll see the transports available” but none of the transports registrations were enable for me to click.

A couple things I don't like about this method is 1) any contact 'denied' from the handheld (let's say you don't want a cluttered list of contacts) is automatically blocked on the MSN client; and 2) if you're Google Talk name and MSN display names differ, it automatically changes your display name on MSN to the Google Talk name.

I posted this in another thread so sorry for the dupl. but there seems to be too many threads on the topic.

How does a person go about deleting the multiple networks on GT if you just wanted to return to the default clients? There are several things i don't like now that i have used it for several days and as i try to return things to default i am seeing they are not responding correctly. GT is still controlling all other clients.

again sorry if this is the wrong thread. (Admin feel free to move or delete)

thx

You should be able to delete the agents from you google talk account and they should drop.

I thought so too, but that did not seem to work. I'm still waiting just a bit longer to see if things catch up. I removed them on Sunday afternoon but as of today @ 2pm central time it has not worked. I'm still digging and will post if i find a fix.

I just logged into GMail (via IE/PC) and clicked on Show All (or directly to Contacts) and removed the two networks - aim and msn) from there. Logging back into Google Talk nets a lot of Unsubscribed contacts (from GMail) but none login.

That worked, thanks. I of course then deleted all those contacts added by the other 3 networks. So far that seems to have worked.

Very nice, thx

Very Nice works here no problems. Aleast dont have to add all those IM to your bb

Awesome - now I'm sorry I paid for quick IM - gtalk with jabber is a much better solution.

aim will not stay logged in for me via first method, and cannot access the yahoo registration...can someone help?

Try using AIM and Yahoo transports on a different jabber server. I went through about a half-dozen before I found one that seemed stable for the transports I needed.

You mind sharing, with the rest of us, your findings of what server is more stable?

-MrKyoo

I cant get the yahoo agent to respond. Anyone else see this?

Eric

yeah, ive tried several both on miranda and psi
although had better luck on PSI for aim

AIM: ursine.ca
Yahoo: njs.netlab.cz
Works perfectly

i would stay away from Ursine.ca, found it to be very unreliable

I found managing the Jabber stuff on Miranda IM works okay. But PSI allows be to be logged in on the transports simutainiously on the desktop and BB.

AIM/MSN always scream another user is logged in elsewhere when using either Miranda or Trillian(Basic) and the BB at the same time.

It's a learning experience, that's for sure! But nice to be able to run GoogleTalk on the BB and getting the other IMs to work. All without having to set the APN (cha-ching) in the TCP settings on the BB.

I'm using aim.jabber.anywise.com and msn.jabber.anywise.com. The AIM transport goes up and down, but has been improving (Sometimes when I set availability as AWAY, AIM tunes in!). The MSN transport sticks.

Steve

njs.netlab.cz has been working for me for both AIM and Yahoo!

reliable has not dropped but once, and when it did i signed in/out of google talk on the BB and they came back up.

I've only left the MSN transport running and I am using nedbsd.nl; very satisfied with the stability.

I tried running the Yahoo transport on the same server but never had it working consistently.

these steps worked as expected for MSN, but i am receiving "Error 502: Remote server error" when attempting to set up the Yahoo! agent.

haven't been able to find anything about anywise at Miranda's forums, and goog searches are lean on the help factor, but rife with integers and non-arabic letters.

any other users having this issue, or better yet - know how to correct it?

I see your point about Miranda and the screaming logged on message from two different locations. That’s driving me nuts.

Initially I found to like Miranda better for the ease of setup. I just couldn’t figure out how to setup Psi correctly at first.

Thanks for the tips.

-MrKyoo

Thanks, I’ll try that server and see if there are any differences for me. AIM acts buggy with whatever server I’ve used thus far.

-MrKyoo

I've been using njs.netlab.cz for AIM and works great. I'm still having issues with getting Yahoo setup and I have tried different servers. I might have got Yahoo working today but will test that out later when I'm home.

I use AIM for the most part anyway so Yahoo isnt that big of a deal. But I have had great stability, and I've stayed logged on all day (with chatting) and barely affects the battery. This is in comparison to Verichat, Yak-on, IM+, Ramble....which so far I see no comparison as to those eat up the battery pretty easily. I logged on GT at 8am this morning, talked to a few people, its now 4:10pm and I still have full bars (85%) with some browsing/email as well.

noticing the same here, not experiencing battery life degradation(sp?)

Does anyone have the ssldll.rar? I get a 404 from the page when I try to access it.

It’s in the 3rd post in this thread.

-MrKyoo

Cool, I missed that... I actually ended up getting it to work with Psi

http://www.jabber.org/network/oldnetwork.shtml


Hope this helps.

I've changed transports to deepdarc.com. AIM and MSN are working much better.

I did unregister from anywise.com, but aim.jabber.anywise likes to remind me I'm no longer registered. Well, "duh!" I've tried using PSI's XML Console to also remove authorization.

<iq type='set' to='aim.jabber.anywise.com'>
<query xmlns='jabber:iq:roster'>
<item jid='aim.jabber.anywise.com' subscription='remove'/>
</query>
</iq>

<iq from="aim.jabber.anywise.com" type="error" to="username@gmail.com/Psi" >
<error type="cancel" code="501" >
<feature-not-implemented/>
</error>
</iq>

Steve

Does anyone have a solution for logging on to AIM or a similar IM service along these same lines...but running a Mac instead of a Windows PC? Using iChat or some other Mac based Jabber app.

I liked the Psi way of doing it. It worked great for me. I didn't have any issues like I did with the Miranda way.

maybe a dumb question but.....all the miranda jabber stuff is done on the desktop computer? and then all the contacts will show up on my BB when I am logged into GT?

Yes!
Not sure of the technicalities... but once you do your stuff in Miranda, and then login to GT on your BB, the contacts show up!

When using PSI you can select Service Directory from the General menu drop down. The attached image shows the dialogue box.

psi_register.jpg

Enter the URL of the dot.com you want to use for the transports. If successfully connected to the server a list of services will display. In this case, you can highlight the AIM Transport and pick Register (key icon). This will bring up another dialogue box for you to enter your AIM screenname and password. When registration is successful, the buddy list will populate.

The buddies will have @aim.deepdarc.com added to them. These can be renamed if you want.

When you log into GoogleTalk for Blackberry, it will populate the list there.

Hope this helps,
Steve

Ok, I followed the author's instructions on the initial post - got my registration confirmation, fired up the 8700, and all my AIM contacts are showing up (I only registered AIM via the aim.jabber.anywise.com method)

However every last one of them is showing offline - and I know for a fact quite a few ARE online.

I then fired up Miranda on my desktop, selected Jabber--Agents, and in my Registered Jabber transports it's giving me an 'offline' status for aim.jabber.anywise.com. I clicked the 'log on' button, and it grey's out - still shows offline status :(

Is this why my contacts are showing offline on my BB? How can I fix this issue?

Thanks.

Whenever I think the trasports aren't in sync, I change my Status (Available/Busy) back and forth on the Google Talk application on my BB.

Wakes it up I suppose. This was one reason I switched from anywise to deepdarc.

Steve

Must the PC stay on and connected to the Internet for this to work?

I went the deepdarc route via Miranda, and AIM has been active and stable since last night. Thanks for the tip, Steve.
