Sorry, mates, that may be a rather silly question, but I couldn't find anything...
On my NOKIA I always had the location / area in my display. Jow do I get my XDA II to do that? Is there any setting or key combination that would enable it?
Yes,there is,but it is not functional how on Nokia phones because you will contiunue to receive messages on xda with your cell-location.
To enable Cell-location or other services on your operator go to:
Start-Settigns-Phone-More,Enable Broadcast channel,Settings-New,Channel number 050.
Enjoy.
Regards
Hehe, very funny, mate. Yep I do receive a notification every 30 or so seconds... Best part is that is tells me first my suburb, next time the suburb east, then mine again and then the one south :shock: while I just sitting here at my desk :lol:
OK, after the good laughter - is there not something as I used to have it on my mobile phone :?:

Maybe this doesnt work with O2 in the UK. I recieve no information.
Is there a list of the channel numbers and their functions?
normally it is channel 50, but upto know it will provide too many messages instead of traditional bar view.

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.

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.

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
Hi,
Over a period of time, I have been able to solve many problems with my qtek9100. However, these are 2 things, I am still fighting with.
Call Monitor:
I have tried a couple of softwares but none are fully customizable. HudsonMobile Phone Dashboard is good but it allows customizations on total minutes based talk plans. In my country, talk plans are not flat rate /min based. Rate depends which networks I call or where I call. So typically I have to set rules for certain number prefixes to use X rate/min and some to use Y.. so on.
I found a good software for this from Pisiloc software for symbian systems and was happy with it till I used Nokia. But its really getting tough to find one on WM5.
Cell Info
Did someone get this to work so far? I tried the engineering mode and googled around to see what all that information means. However, there's nothing which shows or can be used to find the cell info. Its frustrating to see a nokia show the cell info and this mighty phone not showing it.
Can someone please give me some pointers from here ?
Try phonealarm - has a good call monitor and varying profiles for diff tariffs see here http://www.pocketmax.net/phoneAlarm.htm
Nicetrack might be what you are after to show cell info see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=46803

I hvae tried Nicetrack before. The problem is that you need to collect the cells and name them manually. And cell info that you see are the names you give.
What I was talking about is some software that shows the cell info name from the cell tower. The cell towers of my network have an area name coded with them. This way when I drive, my phone shows me the area I am in, simply by displaying the text from tower its latched to. This is an inbuilt feature in nokias and I know my operator provides it. Just that the wizard doesnt show it. My hunt is still on for such a 3rd party software.

It seems to me you're actually looking for a way to read cell broadcast messages. They're available in WM5 as in every phone around (not only Nokia's). Go to Settings->Phone->Other[tab]->Transmission Channels(enable)->Settings then click New and create a new channel with channelID 050

Hi, thanks for ur reply. I have tried this before. Can you give me a little more help on this feature. Here's what I did
Phone->more[tab]->Broadcast Channels->Settings
Recieve Channel List: unchecked
Language: English
Select items to recieve: (clicked new, channel name: "Info" Channel number 050)
OK
Checked "Info"
OK
So now with this, what should I be seeing and where.
Thanks for ur help in advance

This might be useful for you - engineer mode - i placed a link from gsmtestmode.exe in the \windows directory and got all kinds of cell info.
see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=36807
There is a Today plugin titled DKToday, which displays cell strength in a four segment bar graph, operator and cell name. However here in Oz (Australia) the cell name works, but it also comes up as a balloon at the bottom of the screen as a notification (annoying). The software author has been unable to stop the balloon appearing. This is on a K-Jam. Yo need to enable cell broadcasts as stated earlier in the posts.
If a fix is found or a new solution is found it will be popular.
Hi all,
I'm a new PDA phone user....just bought my O2 Atom Exec few days ago.
Not sure if this has been answered before but I can't seem to find any posts on this anywhere.
1) When dialing or receiving calls, the phone number is always displayed with country code, area code format, e.g. 1 (234) 567-8, even though all I wanted was to dial an 8-digit local phone number without any country/area codes. Is there any way to change this display behaviour?
2) Can we choose what fields to be displayed on the Contacts page? Currently, only the Name and phone number is being displayed in the Contacts list. Can we also perhaps choose to display the company name on the list as well? I have customers from different companies with the same names....would be good to be able to differentiate them at a glance.
Appreciate any help. Thanks.
Andrew

u have to change the regional settings...
try other types of English
for example: English (United Kingdom) or English (United Sates) or...
No No I think it is purely network operator dependant.

coldfire is right....I changed the regional settings to English (Australia) and it's ok now.
Any ideas on how to add more fields when displaying the contacts list? Or are there any good replacement software?
Thanks.

This is not possible on HTC's Pocket PC phones.

it is impossible on Hermes, but it might be possible with Prophet. Prophet can record conversations (both side), and it can automatically pick up the phone, so if someone finds a way to play a sound for the other party, then we have an answering machine!
Depends on your definition of answering machine.
I've acomplished this, somewhat.
Get a service like CallWave that can forward voicemail to an email attachment, notification via SMS.
Sign up for AIM email (2gb). Link to that in Pocket outlook. Send receive when u text a txt indicating that you have a new VM.
caveats: REQUIRES LARGE DATA XFER plan. It IS an answering machine in the sense that your vm will play out of the speaker. -- unless you have a wired headset or get A2DP. I had a problem with AIM mail not receiving emails from one of my providers. Workaround: GMAIL forwards to AIM.
I prefer aim for this cos it allows IMAP, incase you want to set up your other, non hermes devices to "read" you voicemails.
HTH
EDIT:
OR u can even set to do this for a PUSH email acct. This way, lets say u miss a call, and you don't see it until much later... by the time u look at it, email w. attachment will already be sitting in the inbox, waiting.
or just use the answering machine most telcos offer with the plan you sign up with, its what i use.
i did like the one on nokia, that and the app that puts sounds into the background of your call but Pocket pc has soooo many other cool features its easy to overlook these.

That one is not free with many operators in your home country (I for instance pay the air time for listenimg to recorded calls) and THREE times the money as an onboard solution when roaming (roaming with onboard: you pay 1 time the roaming fee (you pay the call being forwarded to the country you roam in) / roaming with your solution: You pay the call being forwarded to the country you roam in, then pay for having the call routed back to your home country where the AM is and finally pay for listening to the message).

. . . one more thing: operators' voice mail doesn't allow fancy stuff like diverting some people to voice mail, others to /dev/null (busy tone). This you can do with Symbian-based software like SmartAnswer. I wouldn't expect anything less from WM5-based apps.
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
just spoke to orange about the fact that i only get two rings of my phone then the answer phone kicks in.
they gave me a code that i type into the phone and it adjusts in increments of 5 seconds anything from 0 - 30.

What is the code you are trying to enter?
Generally if you get a number or code to enter for example 0800 25 TREE (Just made this up) you would dial 0800258733
i.e. T = Push button 8, R = Push button 7 & E = Push button 3
Found this on another site, seems easier than using an operator code.
"Regardless of the operator, the way to do this is to go: Start/Settings/Phone/Services, then tap Call Forwarding then Get Settings. The phone will connect to the network and retrieve your settings. In the Divert if Unanswered section is a choice box for the delay (up to 30 seconds); make your selection, then Send the settings back to the network."

O2 have a code as well. I think it's quicker for them to give that out than to walk people through how to set it on different makes and models of phones.

Sorry, but I think your example may be a bit misleading... As far as I know (these codes however are not that popular here in Germany), a "0800 25 TREE"-code should be entered as "0800 25 8733", and NOT "0800 25 87773333"... which means you push the number where the letter is "printed on" once, regardless whether it's the first, second, third or fourth letter on the button (so NOT like typing sms (without T9 or similar))...
...At least that's what I thought, but I maybe wrong...
