Installation is in deutch, you can turn it into english after.
i've tried, it works fine.

Nice to know about the software but we get that feature for free here in Switzerland with either Swisscom or Sunrise.

we dont have this chance in france ! Everything have a cost here !

My own Call Filtering/Call Firewall

I write a Call Filtering program. It works in most PPC 2003 and WM 5.0. Unlike some similar program sometimes doesn't work well, this is perfect!
It supports:
- Black/White List
- Block All Without SMS
- Block All With SMS
Feel free to try it.

Wow, that's really cool! Maybe you can add local voicemail / answering machine capabilities, you'd be the first

Thanks.
I also think that voicemail /answering machine is a good idea :idea: ! After all, SMS is limited in some situation.

I think this is a great tool.
I would be able to leave my phone on in the weekends (when I need loads of sleep ) and only a few (emergency numbers) would be able to contact me.
Wicked

Yes great !
I was waiting for this for long time ! Thanks !
Is there a way to know the CF status on the today screen ?
I like the local voicemail / answering machine capabilities too :wink:

Yes Great
Is it possible to have an Icon in the taskbar to say when the CF is on.

This tool is great. Fix a answering machine to and it would be great..
If you fix a answering it would be cool with like two functions on it so you can let the one who calls you decide if he wants to recive a sms with my mail adress on a sms if press #2 or something =D

I've got a doubt : what is the difference between Black list and White list ?
I thought the phone numbers in white list were able to join me whereas the others phone numbers can't.
And the Black list was the people to be redirected to my answering machine whereas the other number can reach me.
I ask this question because I try with my wife phone number : I put it in the white list and she was not able to reach me (I saw that it was block by CF)

Just checked the application out!
Works very well, thanks!
Just a tip for a future release.
I tray icon would be perfect, so you can actually see right away if its running or not.
For the rest, keep up the good work!

Unfortunately there is a more stable/mature application (CSB), that's been around for a while now, that is able to do everything you're asking for.

@Morphy: Please don't take me wrong.
I have myself developed a Profiles application. But I am not willing to reinvent the wheel, given there is a bunch of other 'Profilers' out there that do much more than my application does.
You'd better try to make your application 'different' from the others in some way.
Just my two cents.

I update it!
Thank you all. I have added an icon in SysTray and updated the CAB file. Now you can know the status of CF on the today screen.

Great Work !
Thanks
And for my question about the difference between black and white list ? :wink:

I've got other questions :
- is there a way to block hidden numbers ?
- could it be possible to create a log of the blocked Calls ?
- coud you add an exit option and a link to the CF settings and in the today icon ?
I try to put numbres in the balck to test but when I test to call myself with this phone numbers, nothing happen... I'm missing something if you could explain this it would be great :wink:

I'm sorry I cannot test hidden numbers blocking now.
If you enable black list, all incoming calls in black list will be blocked.
If you enable white list, all incoming calls NOT in white list will be blocked.
Outgoing calls are never blocked.

Sorry but it doesn't work for me (Qtek 9100 - WM 5.0)
When I choose black list => nothing happen, incoming calls in black list aren't blocked. Same for those who aren't in the black list.
And when I choose white list all incoming calls in white list are blocked.

I have tested it in i-mate JASJAR WM5.0. Do you save your change?
If you did it, I cannot realize what's wrong.
Maybe you can also check whether the incoming call number is the same with the one in list. I mean both have the prefix "+" or not.

OK thanks for the reply.
I'm going to check that

Hi DoctuerN
I tryed this software on the Xda Executive and I have the same problem:
Numbers saved in the Black list are not blocked
Numbers saved in the White list are block
You have said in the earlier post that the Black list are blocked and the White list are not blocked.
Can you please check your coding it looks like you have got them the wrong way round.

Excellent , works fine on Qtek2020i Congrats

Text voicemail notification not working on Vodafone? Help!

Hi everyone,
I have just been told that there seems to be something wrong with the HTC TyTn when it comes to receiving voicemail notifications by text on the Vodafone UK network.
Has anyone else come across this and if so, are there any solutions?
We can get notifications through "alert & deliver" as well as the "alert" options, but when we choose "text" notification, nothing comes through to let us know we have a voicemail waiting for us.
Thanks!
J.

you need set up your answer service at vodafone on line. the voicemail number changes to 242 - you get full alerts as normal plus you an download voicemails as wav. files and you get a fax number an its all free!!!!

We are getting SMS alerts but they are damn slow - they come through hours after the voicemail is left.

Same problem for me - no text alert of voicemail. However, registering for Vodafone's 242 service via www.vodafone.net fixes it - pretty much instant text alert of voicemail, plus some other also free services that I have yet to explore.
What I find difficult is that VF itself seems to have no corporate memory for this and other Hermes/1605 problems. I wasted hours talking to customer services while assorted agents made me repeat the lack of Internet browsing problem that I experienced when I first got the phone, only to discover - thanks to this forum - that VF is peddling an incorrect setup sequence, using the word Intranet when it should be Internet.
The lack of text alert for voicemail has meant yet more time with customer services and has again exposed VF's inability to remember a practical work-around.
It is not very impressive.

Any way to change the persistence of the new voicemail notification?

Whenever I get a new voicemail, I get the notification and the little tape icon on my top bar - but I can't dismiss the notification like I can, say, a new text message. It's always there, I can hide but it's still there, taking up my left soft key - which I already have assigned for other things (in my case, WM5NewMenu).
Are there any registry changes which can be made to change the persistence of the new voicemail notification?
Also, I had to hard reset my phone once and although it's now working perfectly, the 1 key doesn't have the voicemail number bound to it (although if I receive a voicemail message, and I hit the Voicemail softkey when the notification appears, it correctly dials the voicemail number which I now have saved in my phone's address book).
Is there any way to re-bind the voicemail number to the 1 key so that I can just hold 1? I've tried reassigning the number via the Speed Dial menu, but it won't let me bind any number to 1 as it's reserving it... For voicemail! haha.
Any help is much appreciated.

I have the same problem, I can't get rid of the Voicemail tape message icon eithier, but this only started today so maybe this is something to do with Orange.
Hopefully someone here will have an answer.

I'm on T-Mobile... It does go away after you listen to the voicemail and either save/delete the message, so it's obviously a system message which is updating the phone to remove the dialog - but I'd much rather be able to specify how long the message hangs about for, I know when I get a new voicemail because it makes a noise / vibrates and the icon appears on the top bar - I don't need a message which hogs my soft key too
There's gotta be a registry setting, I had a cursory look around my registry earlier but couldn't see anything which jumped out at me.

Here's a convenient list of useful registry info.
http://www.rotlaus-software.de/wiki...les?DokuWiki=0562770ec55a74217e3db710ca5e6e88
Which Rotlaus kindly put up to help you program skins for the excellent freeware app rltoday.
From that...
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\State\Messages\vmail\Total\Unread\Count
is the culprit. Then again I find the best way to get rid of the notification is to listen to the voicemail

I am running the newest version of LVSW's WM6 rom and this isn't an issue. If I hit Dismiss, it goes away but the tape icon stays in the top...yay!

I don't think some of the replies understand that the symbol remains even if you have listened to your messages, and even in my case deleted all of them.
It's really annoying as you constantly have to check voicemail because you may have a new message.

I seem to be having the same problem. I have listened to all of my messages and the tape icon still remains. This just started today and I am on Orange UK.
I use the LVSM WM6 ROM too.

Is there any patch yet available? It's been 7 days since I first informed
you of the bug. A patch (alpha or beta or stable) should be available
within two weeks of the first confirmed bug report.

Sir,
I got a chance to test on a WM6 device so I've updated my message as
follows:
"It appears that this is a known bug - it's reported on
xda-developers.com and seems to be known there. I also tested this on
our WM6 Wizard and this issue appears to be corrected in WM6, but until
there is an official WM6 ROM available for the 8525 - if there even will
be - the customer would like to know if there is a WM5 patch available
to fix it, or if one could be made that would be "official" and not
break his warranty."
Thanks,
****
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-----From:wdsglobal-----Sent: March 23, 2007-----
I received a response from higher up in my department asking whether it
affects only the 8525, or if it affects all WM5 devices. Here is my
reply. Please look it over before I send it to ensure I accurately
represent your views on the matter:
============
Further clarification.
I have now tested this as well with an 8125
ROM version: 2.25.11.1 WWE
ROM date: 5/11/06
Radio version: 02.25.11
Protocol version: 4.1.13.12
ExtROM version: 2.25.11.102
It acts the same. Other notifications dismiss so that one can access the
previous notification, and when all notifications have been viewed the
left softkey returns to being calendar and right softkey. But when there
is a voicemail notification, it won't dismiss -- thus you can't easily
view who the caller was by viewing the missed call notification.
I suspect that this is a known bug - it's reported on xda-developers.com
and seems to be known there.
I'm trying to get a hold of our WM6 Wizard so I can test it on that,
hopefully it's been changed on WM6, but even so until it's available the
customer would like to know if there is a WM5 patch available to fix it,
or if one could be made that would be "official" and not break his
warranty.
============

Hi ,
Here is the technical issue I mentioned yesterday which I feel should be
brought to development's attention.
WDS ticket 070320US12253344
Customer Name: *************
MSISDN: **********
CBR: **********
E-mail: diafygi
Cingular 8525
ROM version: 1.34.502.1
ROM date: 09/21/06
Radio version: 1.16.00.00
Protocol version: 32.53.7018.01H
Receive call.
Either ignore it or don't answer it.
Caller leaves voicemail.
Device shows Missed Call notification.
Device shows Voicemail notification.
Press Notification (left soft key).
Shows Voicemail pop notification.
Press Dismiss (right soft key).
Press Notification again to attempt to get the Missed Call notification
to see
who called.
The Voicemail notification is still there - it won't dismiss.
In order to look up who the caller is you have to open the phone app,
and filter for missed calls which is very inconvenient.
Customer would like to know if an upgrade or patch might be developed to
fix this.
Thanks,
wdsglobal
===========
I will let you know as soon as I hear anything, or in a couple days
whichever comes first.

<<<<<<He calls me to let me know that he has confirmed the bug. He then sent my an email (above) of what he passed on.>>>>>>
-----From: diafygi-----Sent: March 21, 2007------------------
I think there is a misunderstanding. You do have the same ROM as I do. You
are getting exactly what I get on my phone.
However, this is the current bug:
-I receive a call.
-Call pops up on my screen with "Answer"(<left) and "Ignore"(right>)
softkeys
-Either I miss the call completely or press "Ignore"(right>); the problem
happens both ways
-"Notification"(<left) appears while "Contacts"(right>) softkeys; and icon
appears at top of screen indicating missed call
-caller leaves a voicemail
-popup notification appears saying that I have a new voicemail; icon
appears at top of screen showing a new voicemail; "Voicemail"(<left) and
"Dismiss"(right>) softkeys appear while popup notification appears
-popup notification goes away after a short period; "Notification"(<left)
and "Contacts"(right>) appears as softkeys
-I press "Notification"(<left) softkey and popup indicating that I have a
new voicemail is displayed; "Voicemail"(<left) and "Dismiss"(right>)
softkeys are displayed
-I press "Dismiss"(right>), mainly because I want to see who left the
voicemail: I want to see the missed call notification
-popup disappears; icon indicating new voicemail at top of screen remains;
"Notification"(<left) and "Contacts"(right>) softkeys return
-I press "Notification"(<left) and the Voicemail notification appears
again!
No matter how many times I "Dismiss"(right>) the voicemail notification,
it does not dismiss. The only way I can get rid of the voicemail
notification is to press the "Voicemail"(<left) softkey during the popup
or call my voicemail and actually listen to the voicemail. So, I cannot
see the missed call notification until I actually listen to the voicemail.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-----From: wdsglobal-----Sent: March 20, 2007-----
Dear Sir,
I finished the ROM update on my 8525
The Device Information for it is as follows:
ROM version: 1.34.502.1
ROM date: 09/21/06
Radio version: 1.16.00.00
Protocol version: 32.53.7018.01H
Please compare that to your Device Information to ensure they are exactly the same.
To test it, I followed the following steps:
1. Called the device.
2. Allowed the call to go to voicemail.
3. Waited for the voicemail notification pop up on the bottom of the screen, at which point the softkeys say "Voicemail" (left key) <--> "Dismiss" (right key).
4. Allowed it to hide itself, at which point the soft keys indicate "Notification" <--> "Contacts".
As I understand it, when you follow the same procedure, in step 4 the right soft key remains on "Dismiss" and won't change to "Contacts", correct?
I'm afraid I'm not able to duplicate that. I've also tried pressing Dismiss while the notification pop up was still showing.
Are you doing any other steps that I am missing?
If not, I suggest our next step would be to fully sync your device so no data is lost, hard reset the device, then without installing any third-party software attempt to duplicate the issue on your device again.
Since it apparently doesn't affect all devices we could ask Cingular to replace the device under warranty.
I also did search xda-developers fairly extensively but haven't found anyone who appears to be reporting that exact problem, though I've found other similar notification-type issues such as this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298280
Do you know of any other threads that report the same issue?
If you would like me to call you back, please email me a time that you will be available between 9am and 6pm Pacific Time and I will be happy to do so.
Thanks,
****
HTC Support
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is my email thread with a support guy at Cingular (apparently outsourced). I've called 4 times in the past about this exact bug, but this time I actually got someone who is willing to help. It's not done yet, but look for me to stay on their asses about it. I'm not technology oriented, so I would like to get an official fix from Cingular/HTC. The bug apparently is also on the 8125 (Wizard) as well as the 8525 (Hermes), so I guess it's a WM5 issue. But, I guess that's Cingular's problem.

The easeiest way to solve this for me, was just calling my own phone, leave a 1 second message, check the voicemail, then delete it and the tape goes away. Annoying and should be unnecssary but i can't stand the icon there

I believe that's a different bug. This bug is when you actually receive a voicemail. When I listen to the voicemail, the notification goes away. My icon (knock on wood) doesn't stay like other people's have.

issue NOT resolved
I just got a call from the HTC support team for cingular. They said that there is NOT going to be a patch or bug fix for this issue. It IS a known issue, and the next version of the ROM does fix the problem. However, the next ROM official release date is not finalized and will contain Windows Mobile 6 (WM6). They said it should be in the next few months. This ROM has already been cooked in the wiki. If you want you can use those for the immediate fix. However, being not technology-oriented, I'm going to wait for the official release and official support (but I guess that hasn't really helped).
WM6 ROMs:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Cooked_ROMs
This would have been sooo much easier if it were open source. The bug would have been fixed yesterday. But now, we have to wait for a HUGE upgrade with (I bet) its fair share of bugs and bloat. I am bumping the Hermes Linux project.

It's a WM5 issue, for sure. My wife has Treo 750 (WM5) with exactly same issue: VM notify stays on even if all VM listerened to and deleted.
Needs a reg-tweak I guess.

Annoying issue, yet simple solution:
Use regedit (a little search over the forum will help you download it if you don't have it)
Then go to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> System -> State -> Messages -> vmail
At this point select wich line is the one that has voicemail (1,2,etc), go to "unread" and
on count value, edit decimal value to "0"
Do the same on "total" folder.
That will erase the recording tape from your PDA.

Hi,
not sure about the tape symbol, mine goes when I delete/save a message...
However I can solve the number 1 key problem...all you need to do is dial 222 and listen to what it says (it'll send you a text which you delete and then soft reset) and it should assign your voicemail number to you #1 key.

issue NOT resolved after upgrade WM6
Hi,
I upgraded my TyTN with WM6 (from HTC site). Before, when I was abroad, I did never receive a SMS message from Vodafone indicating a voicemail was delivered. After installing WM6 this is fixed and I do receive the text message, not only in The Netherlands but also abroad.
However, the tape symbol appeared after the very first received voicemail and I can't get rid of it anymore. So, WM6 did NOT fix the problem......
Flight

Yep
i am on Satin and I get the tape too. It only goes away when I listen and delete the message. Every time I turn the device on (back from sleep), i see a message warning me aboute de voicemail. If it had not this message, I guess i would not mind. Just the tape would not botter me. But the frequent warnings i cant stand. Dont know about the soft key, will pay attention to that next time

XDA2 and Voice mail problem

Hi,
I hope this is the correct section and that someone can help me.
My XDA2 has sudenly decided that I have voice mail. (The utility warehouse provide the SIM, Carrier is currently T-Mobile). I have listened to all the voice mail, it tell me I have no new messages. The XDA2 shows me a notification along the top near the phone signal strength meter. If I click on it, it says I have 1 new message, I click on the Dial button, it phones the voice mail centre. That tells me I have no new messages!
I cancelled the voice mail option via The Utility Warehouse in the hopes that the XDA2 would decide it no longer needed to show me the Voice mail Notification - Guess What, it's still there several days later and obviously I can't phone it up because I have cancelled the option with The Utility Warehouse!
So, my question is:- Is there any way I can tell the XDA2 not to display the Voice mail icon?
Would be nice if I can just delete something or change some setting...
Regards,
John
P.S. I tried going back to a backup I had from before the voice mail icon showed up, but it just appeared because it thinks I have a voice mail, but the mail box is empty!

i have same problem, but my phone it's a prophet, does someone knows if there is a registry hack to avoid the voice mail notification icon?
thanks

Voice Mail Problem
Hi,
All fixed!! It turns out that the voice mail icon is triggered by the mobile phone carrier you use. They have the ability to turn the flag off, which will work if you do not have any un-listened to messages. Then you can cancel the voice mail option with your carrier so that no one can leave you voice mail. This option usually costs you money, as you have to make a phone call to listen to it!
So can in certian circumstances make sense to cancel it, particularly if you generally have your mobile phone on all the time, and it only gets turned off at times when you really can't have anyone phone you! (They can always phone again!)

JOhn
