Hello, I need some help finding some Jabber client for my Curve 9620. I'm having a really hard time finding something that works or has an available link.
For the record, I'm trying to connect to an already existing account in a standard Jabber server (jabb.im), so there's no crazy configurations from my side.
Here's what I tried (and what failed in each case):
- IM+: fails to connect. I don't know if maybe my account wasn't working somehow (and I created a new account since the last time I tried this), but I hear this client connects to its own server (i.e., not directly to the Jabber server in question), so this could mean IM+'s serves were deactivated. Also, this client is a bit too heavy for my taste anyway, so I figured I'd look for better options.
- Bombus: it's a J2ME app, but it seemed promising, since it's opensource and it has a lot of features (for a J2ME app). But it also fails to connect with some cryptic Java exception. The error message complains about some invalid URL or a missing port -- even though I filled everything in.
- Talkonaut: Another J2ME app. It looked promising until I noticed that it seems to require those Nokia-like action buttons, which BlackBerry doesn't have. I got stuck in the account config.
- Nimbuzz: I remember using Nimbuzz in my old 6300 Nokia phone and it used to work pretty well. Not in this phone, though. The native version seems to be dead: it asks my mobile number in the initial setup, then it gets stuck. Then I tried the J2ME version: same problem as Talkonaut.
- Lampiro: nowhere to be found.
I know I maybe should've posted this as several separate questions, but, at this point, they would probably get no traction.
Any ideas? I need _something_ to communicate to the outside world from this phone.
Also, hello everyone! This is my first post and also first few days ever using a BlackBerry.
