Hi,
I am planning to buy a Jade after using Hermes for a long time.
I was happy with the use of internet calling (internal sip client) of WM6 on my Hermes.
Now I wonder if it will be possible to use it on Jade.
Is there anyone who have used it and can supply feedback ?
Thanks.
well, there is no inbuild sip-client in the wm6.1 of jade. which is pretty bad. i tried a lot, activating the wm6.1 client, agephone, etc, all with sipgate.de and via wifi, but i was never satisfied... somehow it does not work and i am still looking forward to a good solution!
Try Fring http://www.fring.com/. Works very well and the sound comes from the earpiece.
Does not work properly, just tried it out. Via WiFi, a lot of disturbing side-noises, no good quality... Still no a good alternative...
I was talking about the "internet calling" application which integrates sip into the default phone application of WM6
I use this on my Hermes for a long time. It is installed as a cab file (not available in the rom but can be available in custom roms)
Now, is it not possible to install this cab on Jade ?
have you ever tried ?
Here's the long thread about it:

First, thanks to AsGF2MX and his topic here
This tweak is not new, im just bringing it to the attention of those who only read the prophet forums.
It would appear the high and low CPU version of skype are most likely the same, the only difference being which codec it uses to compress the audio (high uses a smarter and higher quality codec resulting in high voice quality).
While low has a lower voice codec it is possible to make it even lower. The actually call quality is fine, the only difference is IT WORKS!
Heres what to do:
1) Install Skype for Low CPU's from http://www.skype.com
2) Run the attached CAB or modify the registry yourself (HKLM\Software\Skype\Phone\Audio\DisableCodecs and set it to read ILBC G729 EG711U)
Thats it, no need to overclock. You cant call the skype echo123 or Linux users as they dont support this codec but everyone else should work fine on WiFi.
Now even easier. Below is an install which will install skype that will work on the Prophet/JAMin/M600/S200.
What is it?
Its just the bog standard Skype 2.0.0.51 from skype.com but I added the registry keys required to acutally get it working on this device. I also added the Today plugin from the new Skype 2.1 beta.
How?
1. Remove any existing Skype install
2. Click here to Download Skype for Prophet and run the CAB file on your device
3. Launch skype and logon
Also attached is a seperate download to add the today plugin found in the 2.1 Beta for those that dont want to fully re-install.
Wizard?
Any idea if this will work with a Wizard?
Yes, the original thread I took the tip from was for teh wizard. Same processor, same outcome.
Work fine, at least in my device, thanks a lot!

As for me.
Seems to work fine for me too! Thanks a bunch
This is great. Thanks a ton! I finally am looking forward to installing Skype on my prophet without any hassle
works great here too on the wizard
I installed the CAB file that dannyoneill posted. When trying call skype's test number I get "no common codec" and skype hangs up. Does anyone know what to do about it?
// lidholm
You cannot use skype once you have applied this fix to call users running skype on Linux. Which is what the test server runs.
Linux only supports the one codec and it happens to be the one thats causing trouble for us.
For most they dont actually know anyone who runs Linux so its not a problem, and even if they did they have a choice. Not working at all or working for windows users.
Thanks for the reply.
Am I able to use SkypeOut ?
// lidholm
you can, as far as I know its just skype on linux that has issues, skype out, in , chat, it all works.
What about calling users that have Skype for Mac OS X? do their skype support this codec?
i believe so, yes
codec issues
This version works great with my xv6700, howeverm I replaced skype 2.2 with this. Problem is, when I reinstall skype 2.2 after uninstalling this modified 2.0 version, I cannot call with skype 2.2! It would seem all the codecs are disabled. No skypeout, no windows users, no nothing. I have checked the registry and there is nothing listed under the disabled codecs. Skype 2.2 worked OK (but slowly) before I installed this package. Any suggestions?
Does Skype work on GPRS
Hi,
Unable to download the cab file off the ftp server and also there's no Low CPU version available on www.skype.com mentioned as such. Can you please upload the file as an attachment with your message.
Also, I have an unlimited data plan through GPRS with my service provider. I have read, not clearly though, that Skype would work only through a Wi-Fi connection. My questions are -
1. Is it true, that Skype works only with Wi-Fi Net connectivity
2. If yes, is there any tweak/modification to use it through GPRS connection
3. If no, is there any other VoIP software available for WM5 that connects through GPRS.
Thanks,
Umesh
O2 Neo, WM5

Hi there,
I had the same problem with disabling the codecs. I installed the 2.2 and after setting DisableCodecs, any call would fail with an error message "Audio I/O error" (SkypeOut, too). Then I removed this registry setting, rebooted and the error persisted. It seems that skype stores this setting at a different position and doesn't change it back.
The solution to the problem is to manually navigate to the Skype folder, open config.xml and remove the codecs which should still be inside the <DisableCodecs>...</DisableCodes> tags.
However, I still haven't figured out what the problem with disabling the codecs is in the first place. I'm running WM5 on an O2 Neo. Any ideas greatly appreciated!
Chris
Thanks for your sharing!
I am going to give it a try!
ANYONE got VOIP to work on HERMS200?????
If you would be so kind as to help me out, that would be great
This is what I have tried and done so far to try to get Voip to work with my provider, but nothing I have been able to do has worked fully yet. I can not program, as one of the links shows how to make your own .CAB, and from what I have figured out with the rest of what I found, all the codex are WAY to old to work with the ISP’s servers the way they should (or this is the way the provider explained it). All the .Cab files or links referred to files that use an OLD G711 Codex, and I was told that in order for Voip to work right, I need a .CAB file that has the NEW G723.1 Codex for the Voip & SIP settings!
This was a Pretty tricky way of trying, couldn’t quite figure this one out…

are they? i mean its time tog et a working version for the touch?
I have Trinity which skype does not support either.
However I was able to found one early beta of Skype which worked perfectly on my device. Here is the link ... test it ... I bet it will work.

Use 'fring'. Connects to Skype, works great on my Touch!
Wow ... fring ... completely useless in my opinion.
What use do I have of something unable to use wifi ? (fring works only with GPRS/EDGE on my Trinity)

I am using Skype for Touch, and it's working. I was able to make calls to Singapore.
osavioro,
I have Dopod D810 running offical WM6 rom with Fring v3.20.23.118. It is working fine with Wifi. I wander why yours is not working.
I fring with google talk, msn, skype, they all work fine for me. The advantage of fring is that u do not have to install skype, messenger and other, just one application and one screen to work with multiple IM.
i know
yes search new version of skype at Google then i am sure you will get the latest versions information from there.

I'm wondering too why it does not work ... it is searching for connection and do not find one.
Fring works like a charm over wifi on my WM5 Wizard (fring version 3.20.23.118). It should enable wifi on your phone by itself, but maybe try enabling it yourself and make sure it connects to a access point before launching fring?
It's also worth mentioning that fring is much more CPU-efficient. With Skype, i can talk only after overclocking my wizard to something around 260MHz. When i make skype call trough fring, it uses only about 60% CPU time without overclocking (@195MHz). So it is really good software, especially on slower devices.

I've done all mentioned above and there was no effect.
I will wait for more stable and eye-candy version of fring.
However my 400 MHz Trinity does not fear skype
P.S. BTW there is another small application -- OctroTalk -- which support several IMs and even Google Talk (unfortunately Skype is not supported).
If there are enthusiastic people in this thread ... test it please ... you can find it here: http://www.octro.com.
Hello everybody,
just got my brand new Touch 3G and am wondering if the VoIP-enabling CAB available here in these forums works on the Touch3G as well AND if it also breaks the GPS connection?
(see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299950&page=140 )
And which of the available WM6VoIP.CABs should I take? And is it using the internal speaker??
Anyone tried that already? I wonder if the SIP connection is good enough over HSDPA..
Thanks guys

Just installed it, but it uses the external speaker, as far as i have seen it....
voip
tried and even bought AGEphone software. it uses the internal speaker on jade and has much better quality than the windows mobile built-in SIP phone. really, WHY can't they just integrate a real sip phone in wm like e.g. all the nokia smartphones have..
download the trial here, for internal speaker go to settings and select "switch speaker"..

Thats only for WM5 or .... because I get the following file Fring_WM5.exe ?
I installed fring just by going towards download button on the site and downloaded a cab file.
But that doesn't seem to work as the application don't want to load on my phone.
Seems there are a lot of version, you even can select a version on phone brand.
I am confused which version i'll should use.

I´ve downloaded FRING directly from my 3G (the .cab) and has installed without any problem. The audio is now better, works very vey well with sip, messenger and skype ands it´s FREE. Works with internal speaker. I´v tried agget.com , works also with internal speaker, very good voice quality but too many´s dropouts. I´ve tried al the parametres, buffers etc and no way to have stable comunications. FRING does the job and works in roaming betwwen WIFI and 3G, and also works with lots o PIM´s at the same time,personaly i use 3, and instead of having skype, msn and voip software charged in memory i use only one.For me it´s the best solution with the LATEST WM Fring version

I had the same problem & I figured it out how to solve this.
First you have to uninstall FRING from your device then re-install it again on device memory NOT Storage Card.

thanks for any info!
Did you ever find anything that is working on the HD2?
