AFKIM3 Multi-IM Client Released
greg | March 20, 2007
Danzel said it best — “AFKIM is back and better than ever!” I can second that… “Away from Keyboard Instant Messager” (AFKIM) initially appeared on the PSP homebrew scene almost exactly 1 year ago; it was later enhanced April of 2006, and today — prepare yourself, with a fresh update for the NEO homebrew competition, AFKIM3!
AFKIM is an instant messaging (IM) client supporting the AIM, ICQ, MSN, GoogleTalk, and Yahoo! protocols.
AFKIM3 changelog:
- Much better, more usable program.
- Works in OE kernel, DHCP ONLY CURRENTLY, not sure why static IP address doesn’t work.
- Faster display rendering (Keyboard lags less)
- Better wifi handling - User can rechoose which to connect to if connecting fails.
- Better menu system, lots more menu items.
- Away / Back
- Remove Account
- Reconnect to Wifi (No more quitting AFKIM to reconnect! yay)
- Get Buddy Details
- Rename Buddy
- Block/Unblock Buddy
- Delete Buddy
- Fixes related to pressing buttons, menus now continue scrolling if you hold up or down.
- Better connection handling.
- Many many code cleanups
- Fix memory leaks (introduce a new known one)
There are current 2 versions:
- Experimental OE version, tested in game310 folder with OE 3.10′, seems to not work in 3.03
- 1.5 Version, tested in game150 folder on OE 3.10′The OE Version works with WPA connections, you must use automatic network configuration however (DHCP)
Download:
AFKIM3 for 1.50 (tested on GAME150 with 3.10 OE-A’)
AFKIM3 for OE (experimental version for OE kernels)

cool nice idea :D
cheeer been waitting for this
the version 2 didnt work out right for me :D
The age of instant messaging is taking over psp HELPPPPPPPPPPPP
maybe im kinda jerk but i cant find the send button…you can i send a tipped text??
Press D-PAD Down button
yay more reason to fail school! :D
urgh, its so true too…
i take it you write messages just like you write something in the xmb? for example when you change your nick under settings
Nope, it uses the danzeff keyboard.
http://localhost.geek.nz/afkim/danzeff.txt for instructions.
how do you logout of that app? or do you just exit out like most games.
this is a godsend as well as a curse. i’ve been looking for a good chat client for some time now, but SO not a fan of danzeff’s keyboard (no offense danzeff) can’t wait to try this out with piKey and the palm keyboard!
No worries, I prefer a proper keyboard too :)
Once I get an IR keyboard I’ll get in piKey/IRKeyboard support definately :)
danzeff = danzel/Jeff Chen. It was a joint project between us ;)
does it log itself out when you exit?
yes
I recommend you use the exit option on the afkim menu, then it makes sure to log you out properly.
Quitting by pressing [home] may not log you out always.
haha…yeah…the second time i HOMED instead of properly exited it did take a bit longer. is there any way to get in touch with you devs directly? (AIM, MSN, e-mail?)
My email is in the readme
i loved afkim. though dont have wifi, if i ever found an unsecure network. finally got an update, damn nice.
yeah for some reason it seems like it stuck on resolving!
how long should i let it resolve?
righteous
ya im stuck on resolving , ive never been able to get afkim working on my psp, dunno why it wont resolve after i put my name and pass in… Someone have any idears?
-1.5 FW Running 3.03 OE-C
after connecting i had to create an account with the im.bitlbee.org server?? it wouldnt resolve
hey how come http://www.im.bitlbee.org never works for me its just a blank page, so i cant make an account so basicaly i cant use this sweet app
I just loaded this, and was disappointed. it wants me to sign up for a bitlbee account. I thought this thing was for AIM. nobody uses bitlbee lol wtf
