account-plugin-haze
 

Hello,

I installed account-plugin-haze a couple of days ago because i wanted my msn contact imported in my N900 and i wanted to be online with my msn while i'm online with my other IM accounts.

A couple of days haze worked.....and at this moment i'm getting errors all the time .

I'm connected to the WIFI at my home
server messenger.hotmail.com
port 1863
http method NO

All the time i';m getting could not connect
more people with this error?

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

haze is disappeared in the download, so i think they shut it down.

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

im not sure why they would get rid of it, unless there was legal troubles. i use it, and it seems to work fine.

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

i did a reinstall and it's working fine now.......
they should have build in MSN support from the beginning!

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

I have an interesting issue with haze.
When I connect with it, it will download users avatar images and put them to contact image. When I disconnect they remain there.
But when I connect again to msn through haze all the avatar images are deleted and then slowly re-downloaded.
How can I tell it only to download avatars of peaple who do not have them in my contact details? And not to delete them from conatcts when contact already has avatar image?
Otherwise it just works fine :)

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

nux, I have the same issue with avatar images dissapearing. I wish there was a feature to just disable downloading of avatar images from msn altogether. I already have avatar images synced from my gmaill contacts.

Also being online on MSN all the time seems to drain the battery faster (makes sense since the 3G have to be online more or less all the time)

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

try port 8080 and http method on, works for me!

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

Haze has always been a little bit broken for me.

It will work fine on my home WiFi with a good signal, but if the signal gets patchy it will struggle as it switches between Wifi and GSM.

Once I start actually roaming AIM will fail guaranteed. Generally, Yahoo and MSN are more resilient (which is nuts as on PC AIM has always been the most stable as it was designed in dial-up days) but often they too will eventually disconnect and "network error".

To prove its Haze at fault I setup a Skype account as well. Skype NEVER has problems reconnecting, I have never once looked at my N900 and Skype been disconnected, its rock solid.

So something about Haze just is not working as well. I was tempted to switch to Butterfly for MSN to see if its any different but I do not want to have to merge all my contacts again.

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

Same as Alex Atkin here, with ICQ for me.

I wonder if there is somewhere to file a bug about it.

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

I think Haze is a bit unstable, last night it was taking all the CPU, so had to kill it. But when it works its sweet

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

anybody know where this has gone? Telepathy has vanished off of the applications list.

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

Try the development repository?

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

I found it on the development repository :
http://maemo.org/packages/view/account-plugin-haze/

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

Some IM providers don't like unofficial clients being used so change the protocol regularly & don't publish the standard in the first place. MSN is one of these providers. You are supposed to pay MS a subsription and use their Mobile soluion instead.

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

please help, i cannot get rid of haze

- My Chat Accounts are empty
- But my availability shows me both accounts and im online (msn, icq)

i have tried to uninstall and install only account-plugin-butterfly

but it wont work, and i cannot select msn in the accounts

after i reinstalled haze my two accounts (msn, icq) where back
but still no entry in the accounts list

so i cannot make any changes!!!

whats wrong here?

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

Err... no? And who is "they" here? Please don't accuse "them" of doing something if you're not sure.

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

Argh. Please NEVER EVER send normal user to an unstable repository without a BIG warning that software can be unstable and create huge problems for your device!

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

Please provide exact steps how you checked this.
What is the output of "dpkg -l grep haze" ?

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

It (account-plugin-haze/telepathy-haze) is part of the "Pidgin protocols plugins for Conversations and Contacts"... I think that uninstalling this will uninstall haze (along with AIM,GaduGadu, Groupwise, ICQ, QQ, Sametime and Yahoo support too...!)...

I liked it better when account-plugin-haze could be installed seperately (seems to me that doesn't really work any longer)...

I tried installing account-plugin-haze (apt-get install account-plugin-haze) but that pulls in the Pidgin meta package instead...

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

Same problem here.
I uninstalled "account-plugin-haze", but I can not uninstall "Pidgin protocols plugins for Conversations and Contacts".

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

Can we still install account-plugin-butterfly? and if so what repository is it in?

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

after i uninstalled all the haze and telepathy stuff

und installed the "account-plugin-butterfly" package
(account-plugin-butterfly python-openssl python-papyon python-telepathy telepathy-butterfly)

now i can see my MSN account in the Accounts list and is schown as "Enabled"

a bit strange it is because when i edit this account the username and password fields are empty

and the "My availability" list tells me that im Online.
And i can see both, my icq and msn availability with the green dot...


EDIT:

i think its solved now
i could still not login into my msn account with butterfly, and the empty entry in my accounts list was saying if i want to delete "nil" when i press to delete it.

and i couldnt create a new login

so i removed account-plugin-butterfly with apt-get
after this i shut down my device turned it on again

then i reinstalled the butterfly package account-plugin-butterfly

now my availability list is empty as it should be
and i was able to create a new account for msn und connect to it

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

I'm having a strange bug - ICQ/AIM can't login (I'm stuck with "Not signed in" message in account settings. In the meantime pidgin works fine. And of course, I did not misspel my password/account name,
Can anyone tell me how to completely remove an account? Cause after purging haze ICQ settings are still saved.

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

I'm experiencing the same behaviour... (no ICQ login possible, stuck at "not signed in")
As much as i know you can remove it from ~/.rtcom-accounts/accounts.cfg , remove it via the UI first (maybe reboot) and check the file.

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

Somehow solved it. Here is the solution:
1)Disable devel and testing
2)Remove haze and other stuff. I purged libpurple* and purple-extra-protocols with their friends
3)reboot
4)Install account plugin 0.7 using app. manager from maemo-extras

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

The butterfly plugin can crash the whole contact list when it is enabled.

What do you mean with "I purged libpurple* and purple-extra-protocols with their friends" Lunatik?

Re: account-plugin-haze
 

This should remove them with all the settings.
