I having Issues With Ramble and Verichat and BBToday and the error is Invalid Connection String: could not open tunnel - failed can anyone tell what could be causing this error???

The .jad file is meant for over the air installation, not loading via the Desktop Manager. The Ramble website now includes an option for downloading the Desktop Manager files for those of you won't can't do over the air installs.

Check out the Ramble thread for assistance with Ramble. Lots of folks there with different configurations that work.

Hi,
I installed IM+ . It works fine but I have a problem connecting with one of my accounts on msn . when I connect with the first account it works. when I connect with the other one I have a message "connexion failed". I have 80 contacs on this second account. Could it be the reason?

With Verichat (trial) I have a message "cant find images" and it shuts down.
thank you for helping me.

having a problem with verichat using bell mobility 7250 it keeps giving me the message "bad dns". any ideas

"CDMA/Verizon/Sprint/Bell Mobility
You need BlackBerryOS 4.0.0.204 or later to get a TCP/IP stack on CDMA BlackBerries. The good news is that Verichat and WebMessenger is reported to work fine on the BlackBerry 7250 out-of-the-box. However, 7750 users may need to get BES/MDS in order to run IM software. For the best performance of running IM software on CDMA networks, you may wish to obtain Hosted BES/MDS for about $10-$25 per month. This will allow you to run the IM software reliably"

Does this statement that a 7250 works out-of-the-box, include bell mobility?

Thank you

k i just tried downloading verichat through my phone it said everything it needed downloading and stuff like that once it finished i got this blank white screen with a circle int he middle a box in the circle and a square, circle, and trianbgle in the box and it says 543 underneath it all it seems to have frozen the phone in that mode and i cant get anythign out of it nothing not even a call coming thru anyone been thru this let me know i have the blackberry 7520 4.0

I have just experienced the same problem while upgrading a 6280 to 4.0. I was hoping someone else already had the ansewr. The quest continues.

Just tried Verichat.

Seems to work fine for Yahoo.

But, AIM, says:

Logging into AIM
Logging into BOTs
Hit Enter th chat with this buddy

Then within 5 secons:
Disconnected from AIM

How do I keep it connected?

Still having issues trying to get Verichat to work with my blackberry. I have the 4.0 handheld software and have tried using wap.cingular and the isp.cingular apns and to no avail the software still does not connect. Any suggestions? I get the error message "Connection timed out," when trying to connect. Now I am able to connect to the internet and have GPRS and all of that good stuff. Any help would be greatly appreciated in this matter.

Thanks

i have tried everythign possible i even took the battery out and nothing guess the protection plan comes in handy gonna take it back and say it was faulty lol just appeared like that guess the verichat isnt very compatible with some 4.0 blackberry's

I am currently using Ramble on my 7250 - no config required other than username and password... I am suprised u r having issues. What seems to be
the the issu?

i have no idea i install it..and try to login..and errors occur..it says...the application im+ has requested a http connection to gate 1...what do i do here...i click allow..and still does not work

Hi, my frien has the same problem with IM+. But when he sent his account and password to SHAPE they find bug in our product and help him

Hello everyone,
I just received my blackberry 7100t and tried to use AIM, however no one from my buddylist shows up. Do I have to manually add everyone? Please let me know what you know ;) thanks

Hi, what application are you use ?

You need IM application (IM+, WebMessanger or other), configure the AIM service (account name and password), connect to AIM and then if your buddy list not empty it loading in your contact list and you'll see it.

Why does verichat set my bb to away when i put it in the holster? how do I turn this off?

After using Verichat on my 7230 I have to take the battery out and replace it again if i have to use the web browser...What am i doing wrong??

No idea but I wish I could figure how to get it that way .. My stays online all the time .. I'd rather it say away if in the holster ..

I have been attempting to set up IM+ for the last week without success. I believe my issues are with Cingular and not IM+. Can someone tell me what line items I should see on my bill for this to work. The install instructions say I need "DATA CONNECT" plan ($5/month) in addition to the existing "Blackberry unlimited Data".

Originally I had the "Text Msg 1000 promo" and when I asked for the service mentioned above, "B2B Data Acess PPU" showed up on my plan. I saw in another thread here that it might be refered to as "Internet Express".

Any Help would be appreciated,

Mitch

Here's a mobile-friendly web-based MSN Messenger client. It works well with my 7100g. Best of all - it's free.

AIM Client for 7100t (TMO)
Question: Should my AOL Buddy List populate automatically when I login? When I SignOn to AIM on my 7100 (currently), it comes up with an empty Buddy List...

Any clues?

Login Failed! Reason Unknown: Error Code 989

Now a co-worker and I both installed Ramble tonight on our Berries his works and mine does not. :(

Apparently RIM has released IM software that is free and will work with major IM networks. Has anyone heard about this at all? If so could they please post a link to where this could be downloaded from.

Thanks

David,

You might be thinking of the Blackberry Messinger, which works only for pin to pin instant messaging. See the Blackberry Messinger thread.

Hi guys, I am new to this site, I currently have 7250 and I am with Bell Mobility. I am looking for a MSN/ICQ software. Is there any chance that I can get a a Free copy somewhere? Any of you guys with Bell Mobility that have MSN set up on your rims? I just want to know whats the best one out there. and DO I need to get BES? Thanks.

Hi Mark,

I assume this comment is specific to Telus? I have a Bell 7250 running 4.0.0.204 and there is no TCP/IP stack as far as I can tell. Verichat does not work -- do you know if there is something that I am missing, or is this just a case of Bell maintaining their "behind-the-times" mentality?
Thanks,
spence

This is not specific to Telus. Telus has TCP/IP stack enabled and so does Rogers.
I am also with Bell Mobility, I will download the Demo version and see if it works.

UPDATE: I just spoke with Bell Mobility DATA SUPPORT, and I was specifically told that they don't support TCP/IP stack. You need BES :( darn

For Bell Mobility users: call 1 877 328 2123 for data support.

That really sucks! Bell is, thus far, a very good provider -- but what possible reason could they have for limiting this functionality? I hear VeriChat is working on a version that will not require BES/MDS... patiently waiting

yes, Bell is one of the best. i will try updating Black Berry software to see if it works. If it doesn't, I will sign up for a BES/MDS serivce. 10US per month. :(

Hi everyone, my name is Derrick. I'm new to this and I'm in serious need of direction. I can tell that everyone has a lot of knowledge about the blackberry. I have the 7520 model from Nextel. How can I identify who's sending me text messages? Do I need a IM software for text messages? What should I do? Thanks, I appreciate your help.
Derrick

Please specify, what exactly is happening. is text message being sent from Nextel website or form Messenger or from a cellphone?

Text messages are sent from a cell phone. I get the message but I don't know who it's from. I haven't added any software to my phone, I have a data plan to send and receive emails

you don't have to add any software to the phone, 7250 come preinstalled with phone software. maybe you dont have that person in your contacts and thats why it's not displaying his/her name but only the number. is thats what happening?

You can't. This is because of Nextel's implementation of SMS, which isn't very good. The best way to get around this is to have people sending you text messages email you through an SMS-to-email gateway.

How do I go about doing that. I'm not exactly sure what you mean, I don't understand the sms-to-email. What I'm assuming is that text messages should be sent to an email address instead of a phone number. I'm I right or do I have it all wrong. Thanks
