How do you stay connected to msn?

[Guest joelb69]

Hi i was wondering if anyone could help me. MSN seems to constantly log me out.

i know by holding the hang up button it disconnects me from GPRS but it seems to log me out even if im just on my homescreen or if ive been inactive for a few minitues. is there any way round this?

cheers

So far as I know, as soon as you hang up GPRS, it logs you off (security feature?). The only way round this I know is instead of holding the hangup button to lock the keypad, touch the power button and then select "keypad lock" from the list. That way, locked keypad but still GPRS connection.

Is this what you're after?

msn seems to randomly log off after short periods of time.....

don't try to get back to home page using the hang up button, the hang up button is the button you press after you made a call / talk to somebody. and after making a call, you must follow the instruction of confused stu.

yes - sometimes (actually most times) msn logs off randomly on the c500. Whether you lock the screen or not.

It doesnt happen if you're connected via bluetooth.

if anyone can find a fix/workaround for this I'll be impressed!!!

Why don't you try out Agile Messenger? It supports MSN, Yahoo, AOL and also ICQ. Take a look at www.agilemobile.com :D I use it for Yahoo! messenger.. It's also free for Smartphones and Symbian phones!

Have you lot got the GPRS "Always on" thingy from Smartease?

I don't use it much these days (after spending ages getting it to stay connected I now use SMS more than MSN) but the tweak fixed it for me

no. it doesn't work. nothing works!

msn disconnects after a random time, somewhere between 20 secs and 1hr, seemingly dependent on time of day, location, weather, etc.

What's interesting - my mpx200 and C500 BOTH do it, and noone else seems to be bothered by it??

Not GPRS signal related?

I'm a cheapskate and so do not use GPRS if I can help it so I'm only guessing atm.

it could be. There are places that last longer (in York last weekend I managed to stay signed in for hours). Nowhere round Birmingham seems to do that, even though you generally have the full 5 bars.

That said, there is one location just by spaghetti junction in brum where you have 5 bars of GPRS but can never get any data, ever.

If that's the case, I can't see any way of fixing it other than moving to York...nice idea.

there is an issue with the orange network which automatically closes the connection after a period.

Its a problem with the network, not the phone.

orange know about it, but they have known about it for a number of months now and not addressed it

[Guest moosery]

aha! That sounds about right. Cheers for letting me know, maybe there's a little hope then!

i cant get into my yahoo or msn using Agile, it always says unable t connect, do u have to subscribe to some network service or somethin before you can connect, or is it my internet settings, im using a qtek 8080 on the o2 network.

Do you get charged for sending and recieving messages on messenger services or e-mail?
