Chat on cell phone??

Post by Louise Bayou »

Has anyone had any luck with this? I tried but only the blank Sim Chat screen comes up. I guess I should just call my cell company and see what is up. I would be interested to see if anyone else has tried and had success with it though.

Well darn, maybe that will be a good reason to get a new phone! :)

No auction bids? What happens? How far do you get? Is there an error message? Does it make a difference whether the auction is about to close or not? Bidding on an auction doesn't use any special technology beyond what the rest of the SIM uses so I am surprised that it has a problem on mobile device.

I have a newer blackberry curve which shows most of the SIM stuff expect the central and left hand side links on the home page. Just the top bar and then a blank space. So can't look at results, read or write PMs, alerts, etc. But I get the notifications for results and PMs on my emails when I'm on my phone which is great.

I can do anything with horse profiles except ship. And I can't load auctions or sales pages because I think they're too big to load without freezing.

Chat, I never tried.

My blackberry says it's java enabled but I'm not sure it's working like it is.

No, but the chat software has a module add-on that supports cell phones!!

yes, some phones do support java! both my blackberries do. however, i still can not get into the chat room, and the module that franky talks about does NOT work.

i can do anything on the sim except chat and ship from my blackberries.

It lets me enter a number and then when I hit "submit", it goes "do you want to submit this bid... yes or no" I hit "yes" and then it just... does nothing from that point on.

I have a Samsung Impression, and I can do everything on my phone with the exception of swap the tabs on a horse's page and access chat. I have bred horses on my phone, bid on horses on my phone, ship, the works... I will admit it's probably a good thing I can't get on chat from my phone... I'd never get ANYTHING done.
