no, i didn't make a screenshot when i experienced the bug, but, after some googling, i changed icq server to login.icq.com instead of -slogin.icq.com which i had by default (strange, isn't it? i used to use pidgin previously on oneiric so empathy was "as is" on my updated to 12.04 system), restarted the system (because i'm still noob and do not know which processes shall i kill to make empathy respond) and empathy reconnected. it looked like it works until i received your response and now i discovered it doesn't so i make screenshots now.

i don't know what exactly should i screenshot. I receive no messages (they come to my android device but not to empathy, normally messages shall come to both devices), but i see my contacts change their status from away to online and back.

Thanks for the video, in your video things work... In my case they do not. That's the main problem - status message of Empathy can be changed in Empathy, but not in MeMenu. And the whole thing doesn't seem to work (i mean Empathy). Today I got another crash, telepathy-mission-control-5 crashed with SIGSEGV in g_closure_invoke(). In my humble opinion, Pidgin is much more polished and works better, so i better uninstall empathy and forget of this stupid struggle with telepathy mission control
Thanks for your input!
