I have been trying to get an AIM client to run on my BB, I have the 8700g and I am having NO luck.

Ramble downloaded fine but it gave me an error "Invalid Connection String: could not open tunnel - failed". So I deleted it.

Now I'm trying GoogleTalk but there is so much crap that I need to install and run that its making my head hurt. I never use gmail for one, Miranda, Google Talk or none of that, so I am not familiar with any of it and its driving me nuts.

I just want to simply use AIM on my Blackberry without going thru a hassle. The OZ client sucks and It will no longer let me login, it stays on the 20% screen forever.

This is really starting to annoy me, and I just want to use AIM successfully :(

Please if anyone can help me out at all I would REALLY appreciate it.

Thank you.

Try this! It's worked fine for me so far.

Thanks, I sent him a PM.

also, you need to add your apn to your phone.
if its tmobile then its wap.voicestream.com
if its at&t you have to look it up.

Nevermind, did a little searching and answered my own question.

Thank you.

I got Ramble to work, maybe it was the APN?

Thanks everyone.

JiveTalk is the way to go.

id still try out jivetalk. its 1000000% better then ramble =)

Cannot wait to try jivetalk when i hopefully recieve the beta. Am i right in saying this should work even though im not a BES user, just personal. I'm also on O2 UK and have entered the APN details but had no luck with either web messenger or verichat :( Hope i have more luck with jivetalk!

Guys i'm on THREE (3) in Hong Kong with a 8707G Blackberry. Yak on and Ramble simply will NOT work. Is there any setting for my network for APN? I Can't find anyone who can help me in this thing i'm getting frustrated. I have posted a thread about it on another section but nobody is helping. Please help!!!! AIM addict here!

Jive-Talk! :D

flash can u send to me? or how do i get Jive?
