Fax software - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

Hi,
Does anyone already have a solution? This is the only, but big drawback that I have with my Qtek 9000.
Thanks,

Does that allow you to receive faxes to your device?

It doesn't work
Hi,
I tried that software, but it's only to view fax files, it does not allow to send or receive faxes.
i'll keep looking for a working alternative.
Thanks,

Hi
I found this one on a Yahoo Group:
http://www.samtechnc.com/eng/introduction/mfax_intro.htm
It should work on my Qtek 9000, but i was not able to try, because i don't have enough skills for that.
Maybe someone here can try and post their experiences

Mfax is for PocketPC 2003. I asked them when they may make it available for WM5 and got the following reply;
"Right now we do not know if and when we will be able to support Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC Phones with our software.
The problem is that the modem i.e. network manufacturer (Qualcomm with their CDMA network) is not supporting fax class 1 or 2 in their system. Therefore we are not able to support the WM 5.0 Pocket PC Phones (or the CDMA based WM 2003 Pocket PC Phones). Furthermore HTC is - due to the lack of support from Qualcomm - not able to support us either.
So we are stuck in the middle. As long as Qualcomm doesn't set a higher
priority to the fax class support within their network (modem) we can do
nothing about this issue.
As soon as they would change this issue we would immediately be able to
support WM 5.0 Pocket PC Phones as well as CDMA phones using their network.
Frankly, I do not think that this issue will be solved soon. Faxing is still
seen as not important by the big companies (which I certainly do not agree, but we do not have a lobby or a direct contact person at Qualcomm, who has the power to change this)."
Maybe we should start lobbying Qualcomm.

We are MFaxCE's developer
We are the developer of MFaxCE. Actually, we have already ported our MFaxCE to WM5.0 successfully, but we found that HTC have changed a lot or haven't open the port for fax on WM5.0 device, we still fail to send/receive fax on WM5.0 right now.
However we are working with some manufacturer who is willing to modify their driver to make our MFaxCE capable of fax on their WM5.0 device. And we are also looking forward that HTC can do some modification or disclose some information to us, so that we can make MFaxCE compatiable with all the HTC WM5 device.
We will keep you posted about any news in the future!

KSE TrueFax is integrated on the Qtek 9090, and it's a modem too...so what is compatible and not ?
Strange... even my old 9110 Communicator could send/receive faxes...
MFaxCE
Doesn't do word attachments like Truefax, but it does let you attach TIFFs. Only $9.95 too.
However, I couldn't get it to work on my Wizard. Just hung when trying to create a fax.
Ho hum.

Edit: neither of which work on my Cingular 8125.
I contacted the Truefax people, and they say that they need some "secret" info about the Wizards processor to get the fax software to work. The manufacturers have not released this info to them yet. They also stated that faxing is not a great priority with phone manufacturers now days, so they are not a priority.
So it looks like Efax on a yearly subsciption is the only way at the moment.
Come on HTC, pull your finger out of that hole and realise that faxes are still used all around the world on a daily basis.

Smartner Duality and Win Mo 5.0?

Hey Guys,
Due to my companies outdated exchange servers I am in need of a good realtime redirector. I read that Smartner Duality Pro is very good but it doesn't seem to work with Win Mo 5.0. Anyone have any more info on this or could recommend another Real Time Redirector that is compatible with the Wizard.
Thanks,
Alex
can't u ask them to upgrade the exchange server? ... i've used smartner duality before with my XDA 2S but i haven't really used it on a WM5.0 device ... i use an O2 XDA Exec now with mine connecting to our exchange server at the office and it's cool and everything but it has a 1 to 5 second delay compared to using blackberry ...
Cheers!
I have actually looked into it, and apparently they will be upgrading sometime this year, which could mean 2008 knowing this company. I have asked to be one of the first on when it gets up and running. For now I am looking for something to bridge me till that time.

I have used the smartphone client successfully on the vario for sometime, however most recently been having some TCP connectivity issues.

Hi Jim,
Could you tell me which device client did you use. When I tried the 4.1 PPC client it won't install, just hangs up. The Smartphone one does install, however it never initializes once I try to get it going.
Thanks,

Like you I have been waiting with less and less patience for a Smartner WM5 client.
Yesterday I think I found the solution but it does seem a good deal more expensive than Smartner.
http://www.esemail.net/index.htm
They do say that you get FULL support including calendars!!!!
My eval is on the way so I shall see.
Robin
Thanks Robin. Ill give it a shot as well and see how it works out.
Well I heard back from them, and they are only licensed to ditribute in Europe, so I am back on the search.
Some optimistic hopes declaims about mid february. Can't say for sure, I'll try to write here when confirmed.
I also heard back from Smartner, Seven, AlwaysOn....whatever their current name is. They will have an official Win Mo 5.0 client out by summer.
Has anyone found a workaround to this. I tried the cab file for Pocket PC and it just hangs on install. The smartphone edition one does install, but can't get it to intialize when I run it.

Smartner Duality and Win Mo 5.0
Contact Dan Metcalfe ([email protected]). In mid December he told me that they (Smartner/Seven) would be supporting WM 5.0 by January 2006 and the O2 mini S which I have. I decided I did not need it so I don't know if it has happened or not
AlexL,
I have this same issue. The work around is NOT to click the "OK" button in the warning dialog box about ActiveSync. Slide this box out of the way so you can get to the menu in the bottom right-hand corner. Under Menu, click on "Settings" -> double-click "Detail". In Detail change the Calendar Sync to "No". Finally, click Done. Then continue through the rest of the setup. Basically mail will work, but the calendar doesn't. There is something the Smartphone version doesn't like about the WM5 appointment database. In addition there are some settings that you can't get to. Like e-mail truncation sizes, etc...

Blaine
Chaps,
Having just upgraded my trusty iPAQ and V3 for a T-Mobile Vario I was mortified to find the PPC Duality 4 client for Lotus Notes won't work. Unfortunately tech support at my organisation won't distribute the smartphone client for me to try even though we have people using C500's.
I don't suppose someone who has access to the V4 Duality Pro Smartphone client could make a copy available?
This is not a request for pirate software as it is useless without the appropriate back end, it's just a frustrated techie who has got himself caught on the bleeding edge while the technology laggards in my IT department pontificate the relative merits of running 'mobile phone' software on a PDA.
Any help would be appreciated as I will look a bit of a tit using my iPAQ to access mail through the bluetooth/GPRS connection or a perfectly good WM5 PDA.
EDIT:
Well I take back what I said about the internal guys, they supplied me with the new V5 ppc client which is 2005/WM5 compatibe and it works a dream.

Windows Mobile 5 Client for Smartner Duality
Hi, we have been using the Smartner duality Professional edition, with a PC in the office pushing emails out to 5 mobile devices. I have upgraded everyone to TMobile Variois and the old 4.1 Windows 2003 client will no longer install. Anyone got access to a working Mobile 5 client? The internet only client will not install with the Push connector.
Many thanks

Looking for FAX software for my ATOM

I tried KSE and it didnt work. (internaml modem error or something like this)
does anyone nows other apps ?
unfortunately there is no software for fax, working on WM5 platform. developers promise to correct problems in nearest future. you can use internet service to send/receive faxes.

Is it possible to use the Hermes as a Fax?

I have the adapter - which plugs into the bottom of the phone providing a phone plug - that can be inserted into a phone/fax.
Has anyone got this to work? Is there something special I must do to use it as a Fax? I searched the forums - and saw nothing about this.
regards.
D
Sending and receiving faxes was possible with WM2003/WM2003SE but Microsoft, with their infinite wisdom, decided that this was not required in WM5.
If you have a special adapter then it requires its own driver and software.
Here´s one application
Although the description doesn´t state that is compatible with WM5 you could give it a try....

Fax
It seems you could fax with the software above using Att/Cingular's CSD service which I've heard isn't offered anymore. I've tried phonetools on my 8525 and 8125 devices and have had nothing but problems with the software.
An alternative to send faxes to and from email in which you can send attached files to be faxed to your recipient is Myfax at http://www.myfax.com
The supported files to be sent as attachments may be pdf, doc, xls, and more... I am currently testing this product on their 30 day trial offer. Their packages are pretty cheap and no extra charge for getting a toll free number.
Cortado.com is offering a similar product at http://www.cortado.com/index.php?s=23&lc=61&p=13, which requires the installation of the Content Beamer app on your device to send faxes wirelessly using your data connection. I am trying to test this service but have had problems with it, they appear to have some server side issues as I cannot access my account info on their site, and cannot send or receive faxes.
I'd go for Myfax, I have been pleased with the service so far and no extra software needed on the device to take up space.
See the description at the developer's web site. It doesn't list WM5 as a supported platform so the software probably depends on the OS to provide the support for sending and receiving faxes, and this is missing in WM5.

Windows Mobile devices and UMA

Are there any clients available, or other hacks to let my devices hook up with the T-Mobile hot [email protected] service? Not so much a samsung fan... Thanks
I have the [email protected], and currently use this feature with a Nokia 6086 and a Blackberry Curve, both work well. It would be cool to have my Windows Mobile Phone (HTC Advantage) working on UMA as well. I've have many lengthy calls with TMobile about this, and even tested the HP Ipaq UMA phone on thier network. To no avail, TMobile has not been willing to provide details of setting up UMA on potentially compatible devices, and to date, I haven't seen any Windows Mobile devices that can work on the [email protected] The general consensus is that TMobile will release the succcesor to the Wing (once that model has sold out) with a Kineto UMA client built-in. But, if they do this, it is unlikely that other Windows Mobile devices will work, as TMobile would want their customers to purchase the new device. For the moment, I wish that TMobile would upgrade their data network to a higher speed. It's coming, but taking too long for my taste.
I believe that UMA might be hardware based but then again, what do i know?
Clarifications?
UMA and Windows Mobile Devices - [email protected]
I have an iPAQ 910c. This has WM 6.1. I too would like to get a WM 6.1 device to work on the [email protected] network.
I had inquired of Bernard Debbasch at Vitendo Systems, Inc. (an outfit that does the programming for this) about a mod to allow WM devices to use Unlicense Mobile Access to get to [email protected] services. Here is the thread:

Hello Ron,
Our company is focused on working with operators and their OEM. We do not
work directly with consumers or individual cellphones. FYI, the addition of
UMA on a cellphone is quite intrusive and cannot really be done as a

I posted a similar question somewhere on xda. What exactly does he mean by intrusive? Seems like a vague reply. As is we aren't prepared to be very "intrusive" with our phones...
If UMA is a protocol I don't see why a bridge couldn't be written to disable the radio stack when the @Home is detected and enable the call through the Wi-Fi connection with the proper protocol in place. How would T-Mobile ever know?
Proprietary hardware sucks but it's the cheapest VoIP I've ever seen... outside of Skype and the like.

I just got the Tmo Shadow II, and the UMA thingy works very very well.
In fact I did not even activate the 9.99 plan for unlimited calls. It just worked (may be a bug with tmo so far) but I am not sure if tmo intends it that way.
I would not even mind if Tmo just used the minutes from my minute bucket, and the UMA is purely providing me extended coverage at work or elsewhere where cell signal is poor.
NOW all you SMART hackers.. I am willing to provide a dump from my phone for all you folks who want to give it a shot, "Make it work for rest of WM devices"

And intrusive to these kind of companies would be cooking a new ROM.
Any word on this? I really need to find a way to get this to work on my Titan WM 6.1 if at all possible. I work from home and cell coverage ends just down the road. I would just go ahead and get a TMobile phone but they don't have coverage in this area so if I did it would only be good at my house.
I am glad to read it here.
willing to dump
I am willing to dump the ROM guys.
provided, (since its my wife's phone)
she does not loose her data.
rom dump wont include contacts and other personal data on the phone.
please just provide a link to the thread with instructions, and i will provide the dump.
so... now I broke down and got a new phone. A G-1. I still want [email protected] to work cuz I may just use the Seimens just for that if I could. I'll wait and see how the ROM dump info works out. If someone will read through pankul's wife's ROM.
htc-shadow II 2009 UMA-need your way to activate
It should work w/o using the minutes on UMA.
The WiFi connection works fine on my phone but uses the talk time minutes.

\Windows\UMA
PS

uma - mmmm!
i spoke today to orange UK, and the adviser that i regularly speak to advised me that UMA is a network thing, and is added or part of a networks own rom, or can be added via an update from the said network.
its orange and vodafone's big thing in the UK.
most handsets that support are the Blackberry's and the nokia's
Straight from the lips of HTC via their tech support bods
Any device that uses WIFI can be made to use UMA software, it's down to the network provider to supply the software either within a ROM or as a patch. Or via a 3rd party to supply a download, then you just need the help to configure to network.
Once the software is on the device, it just needs the info from the network to allow you to configure it.
So all we really need is a 'generic' UMA client for WinMo that does the following?
- detect the nominated wireless network
- checks for access to the UMA servers at the provider
- connects to the above, and routes all previous GSM Traffic thru
the nice shiny UMA connection
- shuts off the GSM radio until such time that any of the above
are no longer available.
Not being a programmer, that seems awfully simple. If I were a programmer, it would probably most likely be MORE difficult.
As OrangeUK are now offering UMA for free (on supported handsets) I don't think it will be long until there is a WinMo UMA client.
Obviously the Android / Tmo G1 has it already - and it'll be hard-coded with Tmo's UMA servers. A little hackage should see you able to change the server to which it connects. A little hackage on your home network should let you find out what the server is too.
How does the billing side of it work? Initially my thought was by IMEI - so what if I borrow a friend's UMA phone, if it's by IMEI then he'd get the bills. Which would be nice, but a little impractical and unethical.
So the conclusion is that UMA *must* integrate somehow with the radio-stack of the device, which must be able to pass a unique identifier of the subscriber (i.e. USIM Serial) through UMA. This, too, could be open to hacking of the bad type - hard coding of USIM Serial into the UMA client etc. So further thought makes me now think that the UMA client and the radio-stack keep some form of 'constant contact' - I guess in a similar way to RSAP works over bluetooth.
These are just my thoughts. I don't even have a UMA phone. But I know I want one.
Update: On Orange UK - these are the 'entries' required.
UMA Protocol = UMA V 1.0.3 (this is defaulty any way)
Take tick out of use default UNC address (if there)
Enter UNC address 'unc.singlephone.orange.co.uk'
Provisioning UNC port '14001' think that's default anyway
Take tick out of box for use default provisioning SEGW Address
Enter SEGW address 'singlephone.orange.co.uk'
SEGW certificate select 'Equifax Secure Certificate Authority'
(this is all taken from a Blackberry forum, but gives the info needed.)

I don't know if you guys are still interested in the UMA for WIN MObile or not but I went into my htc-shadow II 2009 and explored the windows folder, while it was connected to my pc and I found a UMA service cab file in there. So I was wondering if we could use that cab to install the UMA on windows mobile phones that doesn't have the UMA feature already installed. I attached the UMA cab below that hopefully someone will be able to try on their win mo phone and post a result back on here, I am curious to find it out since I am wanting to ditch my Shadow 2009 for a different win mo phone. If any additonal files are needed let me know, and I will try to help.
**Edit** I added some more UMA files that are in the UMA .zip those go in the windows folder

Yeah, same here. It's because the Shadow is a WinMo Standard (no touch screen) device.
I don't see any indication that it's connected to UMA on the HD2.
I'm pretty sure UMA requires hardware support, but I would love to be proven wrong.

Did you get it to work?
Good info (but bad news)
I hope someone can make this work, but I'm pretty sure it will be nearly impossible without specialized hardware. This article goes into pretty good detail about what is involved in making UMA work. "Because a UMA client is embedded into the baseband of the device and requires a modification to the GSM protocol stack, users cannot download a UMA client". In other words, it sounds like even if you do manage to properly setup the software to receive the GSM packets, encapsulate them with IPsec and send them over wifi, you still need a special radio chip that will redirect the GSM packets to your software.
