    Default AIM issue


    I get IM's but the sender is listed as me! I can't see who sent me a message and this is a huge problem because of my 100+ up to date AIM list. I can have up to 60 people logged in at once and guessing who sent me an IM doesn't work for me very well.

    I know I've heard that other people have had this same issue, but has anyone worked it out? Did you need to get a new phone? Is it going to be addressed in the update?

    Advise please. There's no easy-to-use alternate application so I'm stuck using the default mail client.

    I believe this was addressed before and the solution one individual came up was to log in without spaces in your screen name.

    AIM SUCKS PERIOD ! everytime i IM someone i get a text from myself with their reply, so i look at active chats and theres two IM boxes, one from me and one from the the person that i IMed. Connectivity issues suck ! SLOW TO LOAD ! &i still don't understand why i get an IM from myself with the person's reply.

    Exactly, that's the same issue I'm having and it seems like we're the only two with this problem.

    Bumping for justice.

    So, another bump. Can anyone be of service yet?

    I already returned to my TMobile store and apparently they are out of G1's. Glad I got mine early.

    I haven't called tech support yet, but they're usually just a bunch of morons who keep telling me to restart my phone or flat out refuse to help me. I can't even begin to tell you how bad the customer service at TMobile is and how much free bull**** they've given me because of it.

    You need to uncheck automatically sign in and save password.

    I'm going to attempt to do this right now. Will update with results.

    (P.S. If in fact it does work, that'd be pretty ridiculous. Save password and automatically log-in are two pretty important features. It's not as if I'm simply just logging in with a space in my screen name or anything, I mean, in that case I may as well just use Mooble, or whatever it's called.)


    UPDATE: So yeah, that didn't work either. Any other suggestions?

    I had that problem at first, but I reset my phone to the factory settings, entered my screen name with all lowercase letters and now it works fine, except for the logging me out after a while. I hope that may help you.
