sip/gsm combined dialer

does anyone know of a combined sip/gsm dialer program for the wizard/wm5? This is to be a feature in 'crossbow' and truphone.com is alledgly working on such a program although they dont have theirs out yet.
I was wondering if anyone knew of anything that exists today that did this.
It would also be nice if you could use the phone speaker instead of 'speakerphone' when making a sip call. While bluetooth is nice, its not that great of an option for me since I use wifi and the two fight for the RF spectrum and range is greatly diminished and a wired headset is sometimes bothersome.
I am currently using the wm5 beta of sjphone, which isnt bad, although it doesnt give me one integrated app for calling people ...
Thanks

Hi,
here is the new Version 2.3
wfg
Starbase64

Won't work on a lot of devices. Can't record directly from the radio.

what devices does this work with? does the answerphone work silently by intercepting the audio stream of the call. I though this couldn't be done.
If it can be done. How!! Could have lots of fun with this feature

Has anybody testet this on a TyTn II ?

this software ask me for the netCF.. where can i get NetCF?

Tried the newest version 3 on Trinity and it does not work. It cannot play the outgoing message. I hope they can get this working on Trinity.

Not workin'
It's not workin' on my Universal WM5, i unzipped the folder, double-clicked on .exe file, nothin' happens.

After some testing I can say its working fine on my Hermes.
Recording quality is pretty good and it's customizable.
The call being receveid and recorded can be heard trough inner or outer speaker of the pda.
The pda microphone is switched off excepting for the first seconds while your message is played back to the caller.
I'm using iSecretary 3.0... you can find it here.

You mean that you can still record with good quality even when not in speakerphone mode, i.e. the software doesn't depend on the microphone picking up the call from the loudspeaker? If that's the case then the developer deserves the Nobel Price! Up until now everyone(?) have thought that this was impossible due to hardware limitations in the Hermes and almost all other PPC phones from HTC.

I downloaded the version 3 as well, installed the cab. I don't know why the f**k, it ain't workin' on my Universal WM5, even though it mentions clearly in this website, that it's compatible with WM5.
Any suggestions ?
P.S what is Compact FrameWork v2 mentioned on that website ? Is that .NET Framework, anyone with the link ?

Agreed..

I truly agree on that, that is why i really wanna try this application. B'cuz, as far as we know, the hardware of WM phones ain't compatible to record sounds from microphone. Same is the case with Call Recorder.

got it running on the herald without issues.....nice app although I still wish I could get the Answering Machine from the stealth....but like someone said before I thought this could not be done with HTC devices so I'm happy anyway

Does it do as I suspect and just put the call audio to the speakerphone and then record that via the microphone?

yeah, absolutely pal. It's like the answerin' machine in symbian phones. The only difference is that, speakerphone is a compulsion(or a limitation) here, b'cuz of hardware incompatibility.
Adieu..

Hrrrm - thought so.... DO NOT WANT.

WOW is work on my HTC Touch!!! I'm using iSecretary 3.0 is wayyy better then the old vers.........
if they make play message easy i will buy right away!!

I couldnt get iSecretary to work on my Kaiser (Tytn II) i mean it would run but when people would call in they could not hear the voice message.

4.4 wont work on my jasjar

Why I Secretary can’t mute the microphone of my xperia x1 and why the caller can’t hear my answer message
How can I fix this using registry or any tweak tool for windows mobile 6.1
thanks

SKype

does anyone know why skype doesnt work on Ppc

What's your device? OS?
And what about Skype version?
I've got a Cruise and WM6 and Skype 2.2.0.37 works fine.
@+

I have titan and I used 6 & 6.1 wm and no worky

I have it working on WM6 on a Himalaya. How did you install it?
It seems to have trouble installing via cab and needs to be installed using the exe via Activesync (though I am sure there is a way to do it via a cab).
Perhaps you installed it to ramdisk and when your battery goes flat you've lost part of it?
Give us a bit more information of what part exactly isn't working.
Does it install or not?
Does it not launch when you click on it on your PPC?
Which version are you using?
etc

when i make a call i cant hear anyone and they cant hear me and i nstalled with active and cab both dont work

I have a Sprint Mogul also know as HTC TITAN PPC6800 and I just downloaded the SKYPE cab file for pocket pc from the SKYPE.com website and it works perfectly on my phone. I have been using it for over 4 months nows!

Clicking/Skipping during Echo123 call
Hey All--
I've had a Sprint Mogul for about 6 months now--just upgraded to the latest official EV-DO Rev.A ROM, and things seemed to be working a bit better for me (particularily battery-wise, the latest ROM seems to be a little more energy efficient).
So, I felt brave, and decided to give Skype a go. I've been waiting to look into it to fully utilize the WiFi with Skype--cheap and/or free calls from any free hotspot? yes please.--and finally installed the latest available version from the Skype website (can't rememebr the rev #--whatever the website recommends). Of course, it installs, and even calls the Echo123 number, but no sound.
Did a little more research, and found that it's the earlier betas (2.2.0.20 and 2.2.0.18) that seem to be working for people (apparently with mixed with results--some people say the sound quality is awful, some say it works like a charm).
I uninstalled the most recent Skype from the phone, powered down, and then I tried 2.2.0.20 beta--and lo and behold, I was able to hear and record from echo123, but there was a crackling noise (like a CD skipping) any time there was sound coming across the speakers (this is using both the loudspeaker and the included wired headset, also happeded on WiFi or EV-DO, with and without echo correction).
I then uninstalled 2.2.0.20 beta, powered down, and then tried 2.2.0.18. Exact same problem. The sound of my voice coming back on echo123 was actually slightly better than my regular phone; it's just that crcackling that I'm sure will drive me crazy and make the program unuseable.
Has anyone gotten Skype to work on the Mogul without that CD skip sound? I've read through all the forums here, on PPC Geeks, and SprintUsers, and have yet to find anyone definitifely getting great results who can explain how they got there. Is there some other codec or driver that I need to replace? Is there a certain kitchen ROM that will enable Skype to work?
Failing that, is there another program that I can use to make calls for free without having to sign up with an SIP? I also tried fring, but it didn't have any sound on the echo call either, just like the most recent Skype download. Any other suggestions? Seems like things like Octrotalk and SJphone al require setting up some sort of server, which might be fun, but don't really have the time or resources for right now.
I'm leaving for vacation in a few days, and would love to figure this out before I went...any help? Thanks...

Why don't you try FRING?
It can manage Msn, Yahoo, Skype and other SIP accounts.....
PS: It works correctly on my Touch.....

More updates
Well, I've been searching around, and it looks like WM6 doesn't natively handle VOIP (check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299950)
I'm going to try to install these dlls and see how far I get...
Otherwise, I have tried fring, and excitingly, everything worked just fine in googletalk (actually the sound quality I got was *better* than a regular cell call)--except that the person I was talking to couldn't hear me. I could chat though, so at least we could communicate. Similarily, skype through fring to echo123 did not work--I connected, but no sound came through my mike.
I also tried a straight up Skype call (using the 2.2.0.18 beta), however the results were very disappointing. Sound had lots of skips, clicks, slowdowns. Don't see how it would be useful, and certainly not worth paying for.
Also installed Octrotalk--but was surprised to see no talk protocols in the program, just chat stuff through AIM, Yahoo, MSN, etc. Also, the soft buttons (the two screen buttons usually on the left and right of the bottom) seem to be unlabelled--I can press them, but there's not text on them, so I didn't even think they were there at first. A bad install? Maybe my Java is outdated?
Anyway, the search continues...

Skype 2.5 beta

Looks like a new version came out today:
http://www.skype.com/intl/en/download/skype/windowsmobile/
Unfortunately audio still comes out the back speaker. You'd think they'd figure this out by now.

that speaker isn't accessible for regular windows mobile applications. like skype said themselves about this request: they have ask every phone maker to give information on how to access that speaker on all their phone models. it already works for e-ten devices I believe.
you can only hope that they make it happen soon for diamonds

Fring uses the correct speaker.
http://wmpoweruser.com/?p=2250#comments

That user didn't say what kind of phone he uses, and it doesn't say at all if it works for all WinMo devices.
Let me try it on my Diamond and report back
@edit:
Well what'ya know.. I guess you were right and Skype-devs are not (and so I was not).
Fring can indeed make voice calls (at least to their own voice-call-test-service) through the earpiece on my Touch Diamond.
Interesting

i've tested skype on my HD with wifi connection with a friend of mine that has skype on his HD
i must say it works JUST PERFECT! xD

skype to my hd work

But I can't get the Skype sound through the ear speaker. It comes from the rear speaker.
Are you guys using a separate version of Skype or a hack, or you guys are using a headset?

You have to use a headset, the sound comes from the rear speaker of the unit.

still no support for video call with skype ?
I would like to use front camera of HD for video call..
like cam.
hmmmz...

It seems it does not support BT headset as well. I do not have HD, but in my PPC the new skype does not work with the BT headset, its either with the rear speaker, or the wired headset.

If im not mistaken i read somewhere in the forum that someone had skype working with this bt headset

Hi guys,
I'm running Skype 2.5 beta on my hd an the chat works fine. But each time I'm trying to make or get a call, Skype crashes and win mobile wants to send an error report...
Does anybody else encounter this problem, or am I the only one??
Any workaround for that problem would be awesome

no u are not alone! i have hd too and tried skype new beta and have the same problem! i read that we all should wait that skype publish a newer version! at the moment there is a bug or a failure thats skype software can't work correct with the cpu of the hd and all the other newer pocket pc's.
notice: everyone with a hd can run this beta version but u can't call (i heard that some with english rom could, but i don't believe them).
2. notice: u can't use the speaker on the front side for your ear, because skype has no access to this hardware! (at the moment , but in the future )

My WWE HD has Skype 2.5 installed and it has worked great with the official rom and many cooked roms. I had the older Skype installed which also worked fine but the screen was only displaying in VGA.
I'm wondering why everyone makes such a big deal about Skype using the back speaker. All you have to do is turn the phone around and it works the same, am I missing the advantage to using the front speaker?

Not sure if this has been covered here or not but here it is on another forum on xda:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3153030&postcount=61
Start tivi, then run skype. All sound comes from the front speaker, not the back. Make sure to turn off tivi when you're done with skype, as ALL sounds will be rerouted to the front speaker, not just voice calls.

The older version 2.2.0.38 runs fine on my HD and I can make calls with it.
Had the same problem with Skype crashing when making a call with 2.50 so reverted to the older version.

Skype on htc hd
Hi all
Ive been doing some searching and found out how to use Skype through the ear piece just like a normal call. Go to www.fring.com and download the application. It realy works great. You can use it through your network provider and also through a wireless connection. Good feature is that it can include other applications such as Yahoo Messenger, MSN and loads more!
Hope this thread was of use....let me know how you get along!

skype v 3.0 (beta) for windows mobile is out !
the new version for wm (beta) is out !
Can somebody explain why it's not possible to make video calls using skype, whereas with a PC, it's possible.
What's the difference actually ?

Skype 3.0 beta has a bug to call to Italy: it automatically removes the "0" from the city code. If I have to dial a number in Milano I dial +3902xxxxxxxx, but Skype automatically skip the zero so the call can not be completed.
Strangely enough if you dial a contact number, it is dialed correctly.
I wait for the final version.
