Here are the Instant Messaging settings for Cingular.

I'm sharing these because i looked for them forever. I have an unbranded nokia 6822 and could not get on Aim for the life of me. Now i can. Hurrah. Maybe these should be added to a sticky.

These seem to only work through wap.cingular.

i tried entering these settings into my unlocked/ unbranded Motorola PEBL U6 and no matter what I tried I couldn't get it to connect. My phone asks for the following info then isn't all listed on this thread:

IM ID
Password
IM Server
IM Port
Post URL (asking for a 4 digit number)
Secure Login (yes/ no)

Anyone have ideas on what to input in these fields?

The number after the colon in the GPRS address (for instance, 1171 for AIM) is the port number. It sounds like your phone is asking for the IM server name (http://aol.cwmim.com) and the port number separately.

Don't know what the Post URL means.

Good luck.

dude! i've been looking for the settings to use AIM thru the wireless village client built into the phone. i can get yamigo working, but AIM never works thru yamigo... i just tried these settings on my 6270, and it stars to connect, but then says login failed. also, i don't see where to enter the text message #.

it works on my 6230b but its very slow.

where did you enter the text message number? you got it working with the built in wireless village client?

i entered everything above and it works. its laggy so i wont be using it anymore. also i was wondering if this uses data or text?

[FONT=Verdana]I have an unbranded nokia 6822

So I'm assuming this works on the wireless village IM client that comes on all the unbranded nokia phones??

Does this AIM client function like a regular AIM mobile client? Do you see your buddy list also?

2 ways...neither of which are "built-in" the phone, no application for it.

1) Set up mobile settings within MSN Messenger, that way people can send you IMs that go to your cell phone. Uses text messages.

2) The Cingular Media Net home start up page has MSN Messenger, it's listed under the Mail and Messaging link. It's ugly, but it works. Uses data.

Sorry for reviveing a dead thread btw...

Mobile IM sucks (it's slow and cumbersome)..... But, I am grateful for these settings... I haven't been able to get it to work on my unbranded 6230. Thanks.

As several other posters have asked, does this use DATA or TEXT??? Thanks...
