Hello,
I've read that WM6 supports UMA/GAN access. Anyone knows if there's a way and if so, how to configure it?
UMA, or GAN as it's called now, requires that the handset support it.
There are still not many many of those handsets; UMA today has a list here: http://www.umatoday.com/mobileHandsets.php
Not sure if the list is complete.
Hmm, one of the new features of WM6 is UMA support. So are you saying that there must be some hardware changes (even if the phone has both wifi and cellular radios) before UMA can be used?
Yes, the OS alone cannot give you UMA functionality, even if the phone has both WiFi and Cellular radio.

does anyone know if you could port UMA capability from a WM6 device like the HP iPAQ 510 to an to an HTC device?

No; or at least that wouldn't give you UMA.
To give real UMA functionality there is also hardware involved.

Has anyone looked into this?
does anyone know if the SE Xperia X1 will support UMA? I've tried looking all over the net, but no one has any concrete conclusions
uma / gan for winmo handsets
All htc handsets that have wifi are capable of being used as UMA / GAN handsets - source HTC technical team.
Problem is, win 6.x is now old hat, and companies will not spend money on software development, when they want you to buy new devices.
Companies - such as 'Kineto' are writters of this software, they have said they are currently writting software for android series phones as an add on. But have said yes its easy to develop the software to run on wifi winmo's devices, just no money to be made from it commercially.
But then, will your network provider pay for the add on software for ur device, it was confirmed that orange was in talks but at that time no deal had been reached for patching andriod devices.
So its down to money again, as the device can support it, just no software as of yet!

Hy, I'm a new owner of a nice MdaPro/Jasjar, and for me is very important to send a fax to my customer or receiving a fax. It is possible with my young favourite.
Would you have a net connection?

Dear .
U hv to use KSE True Fax 2.09(d/l from FTP) and your SIM shd have the Data/Fax service activated from yr service provider...
Hi,
can you tell me how you did it. The TrueFax is ver. 2.09 is not recognizing the modem.
If you succeeded you let it running, plz. describe the procedure in detail.
thanx.
KSE's website explicitly stated that it doesn't support HTC Universal
HTC-Universal device without fax software - The already available "Universal" devices manufactured by HTC are not equipped with a fax software. That means, when you purchase one of these Pocket PC Phones, such as MDA Pro, XDA expert, VPA 4, etc. no version of our software KSE Truefax is included. Furthermore no version of our software is available for these devices. Previous versions of Truefax are not compatible with this device type. If you need a fax software please contact your respective net provider.

I haven't tried this, but maybe you can give it a go:
MFaxCE -- Don't know if it's WM5 compatible.
http://www.samtechnc.com/eng/introduction/mfax_intro.htm
Anyway I can use Winfax Pro 10 installed on my Windows XP computer to use the Jasjar as a fax modem so that I can fax from my pc connected to the Jasjar via bluetooth. I know I can do this with my Nokia 6600. I tried the same with the Jasjar but it appears that the Winfax Pro does not recognize the Jasjar as a fax modem. Maybe I am doing something wrong or maybe simply that the Jasjar modem is not fax compatible. Any view would be appreciated.
Kind Regards
I remember someone in the BA section posting a working KSE cab file for the BA with WM5.
Just don't have time to find it right now.
I have a big dilema...will it ever be possible to use fax on my qtek 9000? I have all the required fax services on my SIM and software on my phone (TrueFax 2.09), but it still not working to send or receive fax from my device...
And about the fax modem...is this an aditional software, or what because my phone is not detecting any fax modem?
We are the developer of MFaxCE
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!
@samtech
Sounds great, i really miss Faxing on the Universal.
However, I seriuosly doubt that HTC vill release any info on the internal's of their device. They will more likely give you a datasheet on an upcoming device, and perhaps give you some limited access.
It's very clear that the whole WmMobile business market is centeret on one thing, pushing new devices out the door.
Rom Updates that actually makes our devices work the way they are marketed, are never released......just forget it!
And why should they, we are stupid enoughf to buy the new devices, hoping that it will solve our problems.
Luckily we have some brilliant guys working on the linux Port for the BA, Universal and other devices ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=35972 )
Doo feel free to join or provide any info you might posses to the community, the more the merrier
On the negative side, it dossent excatly put food on the table, but hopefully it will help us by providing the tools we need to help us do other things that will, without having to constantly monitoring this board to get our devices working within resanoble boundries.

AFAIK Universal does not support V2.0, which will
make it a PITA to support. I don't know if it a hardware
limitation or a phone radio ROM (mis)feature.
Edit:
sorry, it was mgetty+sendfax that does not support v1,
but hylafax does.

Does anyone know if it will be possible to enable Unlicensed Mobile Access (UMA) on GSM/WiFi WM5 devices with software? Would it require a hardware update?
UMA support
Hi!
Did you get any answer or did you find something during your investigations?
Thank you!
Anyone have any news on this?
T-Mobile has UMA deployed in at least some parts of the US now but only with a Nokia phone and a Samsung...
Does anybody know how to get the [email protected] service working on the 8525. All I really need is the SIP settings for t-mobile. I cannot find this information anywhere and when I asked t-mobile they had no clue.
TMobile's Hotspot @Home doesn't use SIP; it uses a protocol called UMA -- Unlicensed Mobile Access. It has been described as GSM tunneled through IPSec.
HP has one Windows Mobile device which uses UMA. You'll probably need to obtain one, extract the program, mod it to run on an 8525. The settings for TMobile UMA have been posted at Howardforums.com under the TMObile Group, [email protected] subgroup.
This might be possible, but it is a massive project. People have generally not succeeded on getting UMA phones working on other networks which support UMA (e.g. a TMobile [email protected] phone working on a Rogers Hotzone or Orange Unique network).

My wife is a tmobile employee she said they had a hard enough time getting @home working reliably the way it is, so getting it work on a non uma phone may not be possible.
Thanks!
Hey guys, thanks for all the knowledge. I now own a Mogul and am switching to Sprint (faster network, GPS, and I will actualy have service!) so the need for [email protected] has diminished. However, it would be a good project to try and produce a program to utilize the UMA...Anyways, thanks for all the help!

CAB?
anyone find the cab yet?
the 'currenly posted' cab works great after a reboot?
I read in multiple locations that the T-mobile version (MYTOUCH3G) had passed the FCC with UMA capability (and that nice 5mpix cam) what happened?
I was looking forward to getting this phone but UMA is essential to my wallet and I can't get it without UMA!!! Where did it go? Is it possible that it is in the box, but just not activated? Is anybody going to make an app or patch to unlock UMA capabilities????
Does anyone know of a decent device (htc or other) that will sport UMA and 3g????
I ordered one and will have it next week. Anything to do or advice? I don't currently have a data plan and don't plan on getting one.
I'm using my Jade with T-Mobile USA. I have no data plan, just a prepaid card. I don't call that much so this was the cheapest way for me. Most of my calls are made from my home land line or from work. Jade helps anywhere between, on the soccer field and on the beach. You can buy 1000 minutes for $100 and you have full year to use it. Not bad. I have no problems with coverage. It is similar to T-Mobile I used in Europe, but it is much cheaper here. I paid $0.50 per minute there.
I have a Fave 5 plan and will be trying to install a cab. file to have the Fave 5 stuff on my phone. I can get to some wap sites on my Samsung Behold t919. I hope that I can get to those sites on the Jade like I can now without the WIFI. Do you ever use the internet without the WIFI?
Got UMA?
Anybody in America using T-Mobile UMA service successfuly? I bought the phone from Ebay from someone in Australia, so i never had UMA software installed like the ones from Orange UK. I thought about flashing Orange software thinking it should get UMA access using my T-Mobile SIM.

I don't know what UMA service is.
UMA info
UMA lets you talk over a wifi connection and automatically switch between wifi and GSM towers.
The benefit is apparent to anyone who gets terrible reception in an office building. If the building has public wifi (or it's your building and you have the network password). you get fully digital voice and data service even if you have no cell reception.
T-Mobile has many Blackberrys that have this feature along with a few other phones. The only device with WM6.1 and UMA I've found is the Jade. However since the Jade was never sold by T-Mobile, they don't have software for it. The only software that seems to support it is the unique software from Orange.
My goal is to skip the Orange branding crap, and get the benefits of UMA. I work in an office building as described, and I need WM6.1 or better for work software.
http://w ww.umatechnology.org/overview/
Hopefully somebody with a big brain can help me figure this out. I've been somewhat sucessfull at flashing roms on my jade, but I'm not sure I'm ready to cook one from scratch.
Thanks for any help,
-Rick
