Hi, I've tried searching the forums, but i'm having no luck. I recently got the T-Mobile MDA (great phone, btw), and I was wondering if anyone can advise on how to enter numbers into your contacts, so that you can include a persons extension. This is a feature that I would like to know so that I can call friends and family at their work numbers, where I would have to call the company number, wait for the automated receptionist, and then dial the person's extension.
I use to be able to do this with a Samsung phone that I had for Verizon using a "p" pause feature, which would wait an additional 2 seconds per "p", followed by entering the persons extension. (ie, if you were to enter "(123) 456-789 ppppp 12345", the phone would dial (123) 456-789, wait 10 seconds (5p's = 5 x 2 seconds), then dial 12345.
if the above explanation was confusing, maybe you can check the info from samsumg's site at
http://erms.samsungusa.com/customer...D=557&PROD_SUB_ID=561&PROD_ID=613&AT_ID=24794
it gives an explanation of this "p" pause feature (not my previous phone, but still same feature).
overall, this would make my life easier when i use voice dialing, so that when i'm driving and want to call someone, i don't have to look down at my phone bad and try to touch the numbers (which are a bit inconvenient on the MDA), for the person's extension.
thanks for any advise you can offer.
Use a comma instead of "p"
i.e.
123 456-7899 ,,,,, 12345
thanks lotech, it worked. this will definitely save me from getting into a car accident.

Hi there,
I have used this little gem of a program, it allows you to add numbers before and after the number you wish to dial. Very useful if you have a cheap international call contract from your mobile i.e. you have to dial a landline number which connects you. Hope this is of use to you all. keep up the good work site, Cheers.
Fergie.

Do any of you know of or think that the iPhone style Voice-mail service will be coming to Windows Mobile devices soon? (At no additional cost )
Unfortunately I found the first feature the iPhone has that I currently see no alternative solution for.
Still, I would never get an iPhone but would love to have the ability to browse Voice-mails like TXT messages. Delete without listening to. Seems like something that should be available to all and is long overdue!
nothing free as of yet but here's the one if you willing to pay.
Code:

another pay service:
http://simulscribe.com/?gclid=CPeJndrMm48CFQqZggodMiuRfA
I didn't actually mean get Voicemails as TXT messages, I meant be able to browse through them rather than listen to one at a time and have to skip if you don't want to delete one and stuff like this iPhone ad.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TcPv9PqnqfM
Just a list of voicemails and who left them with the ability to listen to any or delete them if I don't care what they have to say
Like described here in the commercial! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-2PeyLz30E
yea I know what you're talking about. I havent seen an app like that yet but i'd like to see something like that come out soon for us.
I assume that it uses the data connection and/or possibly txt messaging. Otherwise I don't see how they can be doing this. Even with a txt msg list of voicemails, it would take longer than it does in the "demo" video to start playing if it had to dial out and play it on a voice line where as if it downloaded then through a data connection they are on the device ready to play.
That also means that AT&T will most likely charge for the feature if they ever decide to do it for WM Devices.
The iPhone integrates with a custom server in AT&T's network infrastructure that links into AT&T's voicemail servers. The custom server pushes a new voicemail down to the iPhone via the iPhone's data connection, and stores each voicemail on the phone itself as a compressed audio file.
Someone would need to write an application that could pretend it was an iPhone on AT&T's network, and attach itself to the iPhone voicemail push server. That same app could then store each file as it is transferred to the phone in memory and present the voicemails in a graphical interface.

While simulscribe is a pay service.... Simulsays is not. Yes there are two different things. I figured this one out on my own. So here ya go. Go to Simulsays.com and then setup an acct. Where it wants you to chose a package don't worry about it. The trick is to check no to having your voicemails transcribed. Once you set up your acct. you will download the program that works EXACTLY like Visual Voicemail on the iPhone. It is great. The way this one works is it instructs you to reroute your voicemail to the service and then the program that you then download pulls voicemails at a "set by you" time interval or just at will without auto polling. Hope you can figure it out. If you want to be sure you are not getting charged simply go to the link for support and get the phone number and say hey i want to make sure my acct is set up so that I won't get charged.
I am just not sure if every 'cool' service makes sense!
As the name says already: it is a VOICEMAIL! By seeing who left a message and being able to delete you will most likely often delete people who might have an important message! You won't know until you actually listen to it!
However, most likely you see on your phone who called anyway, so, you can asume that that was the person leaving a message. If you don't wanna listen to it then don't!
This reminds me somewhat of the new AUDI cell phone which has its own docking slot within the car and takes pictures of intruders. Those pictures then get forwarded to the AUDI CENTER. Audi really expects you to leave your phone in the car all the time ...

But what about being able to prioritise your voicemails -you can see a list of who has left you a voicemail, and just jump immediately to the one you want?

I am no programmer, so do not know if what follows is feasible or not, but, I can see no reason why you'd need to link to the iPhone's system at all- just use the WindowsMobile 6 system.
1.) When someone calls, this is logged
2.) When a voicemail is left, this is logged, but not against someone's number
3.) By combining the "missed call" log with the "voicemail" log, you should, in most cases, be able to identify who left the voicemail, I believe, or at least have a rough idea.
4.) The application needs to be able to list the voicemails left, and the link the call's number to their name: so you can see that Mr. X left you a voicemail at 10:00am.
5.) Provided that you always access voicemail via the application, and not directly, you could sort out the deleting too - most systems I've used have an IVR which lets you jump between messages, and delete them etc. So, for example, you tap on the third message in this application. The application dials your voicemail number, waits for a period, and then, using the IVR commands, moves to the relevant mail.
for example, something like, 121,,,,1,3,3,3 for the example above. (where "1" is the IVR code for "voicemail", and "121" is the shortcode)
If you deleted the voicemail yourself directly, then, that could cause a problem, as the application is not linked to the voicemail system, but, you could delete it via the application:
121,,,,,1,3,3,3,4 (where "4" is the IVR code for delete)
The application then removes the listing for that voicemail from the list. As such, the fourth voicemail becomes the third etc.

And all that only because of people get too lazy to press and hold "1", set your phone on speaker and listen while doing something else?
However, your plan still would require to communicate with the VOICEMAIL system. You want to delete something by pressing "4" - if you do not communicate with the VOICEMAIL system you can't delete but only the notification in your phone! As a programmer you should know better!
It would require an always-on connection to your voicemail to monitor what is going on there and also to transmit changes you make through the "menu" in your phone! And so on and so on and so on ...

I'm sorry, but, can you please read through what I've written again? I can't see how you reach any of your conclusions, and, as you've written "[a]s a programmer you should know better", whilst I've clearly stated in the first line that I am not a programmer, I have doubts that you've understood it properly.
As long as the application can register a keypress in the Phone application, I cannot see why it would not work. It expressly does not require an always-on connection to voicemail, hence why the dial-strings I've included contain the voicemail dial number... The string dialled is the based on the options you select, combined with call-log details.
I agree that it is probably not worthwhile in terms of time-saving, but, hey, someone bothered starting this thread
Well, I missed the "no" in the beginning of your post - I appologize for that!
However,
a VOICEMAIL with functions mentioned in this thread would need a permanent or repeated connection to the voicemail itself.
A better thing would be to disable the NETWORK PROVIDERS voicemail service and have an application running on your phone just as SMARTPHONEWARE's BestAnswer for SYMBIAN PHONES. This has all the options and I used to love that app when I still had NOKIA. It records your voice messages directly on the phone's memory and not to a virtual MailBox in the network provider's computer.

Indeed- it would need to call voicemail each time, in my model. However, if someone really wanted a visual voicemail application, then, in the short term, it might work.

lol i dont know who told you that but it's blatantly false...
The iPhone system works like every other system except that when a new voicemail message is received (by the server) a text message is sent to the iPhone (not the actual voice message. a text message) that is encoded with the time of the delivery, the caller's #, and various other information like how long the message is and such. A link is also included in the text message that is added to the Voicemail List on the iPhone. When you select to listen to a message from the list you're actually clicking on a link (basically a specific # to input once you're connected to the voicemail server).
Your method would require that every single voicemail message that is received by AT&T would be converted and sent to the receiving user (even if they don't use an iPhone) and then if the user was *not* using an iPhone the file would be denied. That would require huge amounts of converting and data transmission for no reason whatsoever. AT&T's out for money like every other company they're not going to waste time and effort developing a system like that when their simplified system works just fine.
Also, it appears that visual voicemail alerts are sent via SMS, and there's a special handler in the SMS app that passes them to phone alerts in the Phone app.
The SMS alert comes from the number 1000000000, its composition is below. Note that I've replaced the relevant mobile number with 8005551212:
smpp-vip.allntxacds12.attwireless.net:5400?f=0&v=300&m=8005551212&p=&t=8005551212:A:AMS_NB_VIP6:ms01::5065
If you attempt to reply in SMS to this number, you get an error message:
Error Invalid Number. Please re-send using a valid 10 digit mobile number or valid short code.
the text message is the trigger for the voicemail
we know how it works now can we get it to work on wm6 and or 5
Short search with the help of Google bring me this solution - http://www.isecretary.net/
WM based voice mail.
Is this what you all wanted?

Wow...why would you say it's false? Do you have an iphone? I can listen to my voicemails when my iphone is in AIRPLANE mode (all raidos and calls disabled)...so either my iphone is lying about being in airplane mode and it's really calling AT&T servers...OR...it really does download the audio voicemail files to your phone.
GrandCentral is your answer ...
Go to GrandCentral.com and signup. You'll probably have to wait, as it is still in private Beta, but not more than a few weeks. Basically, you'll get a free phone number (choose one in your local area) and can route that number to a number of places and can access it in a number of different ways ... including the Internet.
It has voicemail that you can peruse, just like e-mail.
- Unlimited inbound minutes
- Unlimited voicemail
- Unlimited Credit for click-to-call
- All premium features, including call record
And the best part is that it is owned by Google, so it is FREE!!!! Woo hoo!!!!
[05/27/08] HushSMS - A "Silent" SMS Tool [Version v0.6beta]
HushSMS is a tool to sent a class zero message (aka Flash-SMS) or a stealthy PING message to another cellphone.
The "Silent Ping" enables you to sent a message to another cellphone without the owner getting knowledge about.
The message is discarded on the owners phone and no trace exists. You will get back a message from the operator that your message has been delivered, proving that your message has been received, and thus you can know that the owners phone is switched on.
This is not some kind of hack or whatever. It's a normal function per standard and works on any phone.
Q: Why such a software? A: I regulary need it in my job. Sometimes I have to be sure a specific phone is switched on and I can send information to that phone without it beeing stored (class zero message).
It runs on Windows Mobile 5 and 6 based PocketPCs.
EDIT: A word of warning: If you send a class zero message to a windows mobile device, your number will not be shown. Instead of the senders number, windows mobile will show something like "Network Message".
So in general this tool could be used in a manner it is not intended and designed for. So be responsible!
Usage
-----
Copy the CAB file to your device and double click it.
The program is installed to \Program Files\HushSMS\HushSMS.exe.
There are three functions:
Send a normal SMS
Send a class zero message (Flash-SMS)
Send a stealthy message
- To send a normal sms, leave the checkboxes for "Class 0" and PING unchecked. If you want a receipt enable the "Return Confirmation" checkbox.
- To send a class zero message enable the "Class 0" checkbox and write your message.
- To send a silent PING just enable the "PING" checkbox. There is no need to write something in the Textbox, because the target phone will discard it anyway.
If you enter the number manually you have to enter it in international format (for example starting with +49... for germany).
You can alternately choose the number from your address-book but it has to be in international format also.
The program will pop-up a message box to notify you about the success or failure of the sending process. This message box
might be under an overlaying window if you have other programs open (a file explorer for example).
That's it. Enjoy it, as always it's freeware.

EDIT: v0.2
Download @: http://www.silentservices.de/HushSMS-0.2.CAB
EDIT: v0.3 beta 08.04.2008
See post #87: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2098699&postcount=87
EDIT: v0.3 beta4 15.04.2008
Changes:
- Smartphone UI
- Added PING2 message option
- Added notification bubble (for PPC only)
- Program now quits after message is sent
- small general improvements
As for the PING2 function: I added this for all the people whose provider will automatically transform Type0 messages to normal SMS. This function uses a different method for sending a "silent ping" which should enable all users to send those messages, even on US carriers. The principle is pretty simple: I'm sending a MWI deactivation, which is not shown to the user, and request a status report. If you receive the status report, you known that the "pinged" phone is active.
See Post #103
EDIT: v0.6beta 27.05.2008
New features:
- Additional MWI Messages (except for voice MWI, most of them will not work on windows obile based target phones)
- Added WAP-Push SI (service indication) and WAP-Push SL (service load messages)
See Post #124
This program doesn't seem to work on US-Carriers (except with the new beta4 which enables another method for the "silent ping")
Edit: I've tested the program on the german eplus network, and found out that class0 messages, as well as type0 (The Ping) are converted to normal messages by the SMSC of eplus.
However, it is working as expected on vodafone.de
Thanks a lot I have been looking for program like this for a long time. Will report any glitches.
useful one, great bro
dont work on Artemis (wm6)
error when sending msg. ..
EDIT: owww i forget about country prefixes (f/e +48) now working fine, thanks
Tested on my tytn and it works perfectly.
Quick question...If I send a class 0 sms to normal cellphone like samsung or nokia will my number be shown.
The only extra feature that would be great would be the ability to send a sms to a friend and make it seem as though it came from another friend.....is it possible to do and if so how difficult would it be to implement something like that?
"Silent Ping" funtion dosn't work.
It seems like a class zero message appears on the Nokia cellphone
Before anyone else says it doesn't work: read the first post, you MUST USE COUNTRY CODE.
Ive tested all the features of the app on my tytn and everything works fine.
I never entered the country code and it still works.
I've tested this app and it does everything it says it does, which is cool. When I choose "Class 0" and sent a text message to myself (wm6 device), it read the message, it was from "Network Administrator", and my phone number was not listed. Also, when I enabled just the ping to send a silent message to my other cellphone which was off, it read that the message was sent. When i turned my other cellphone on, (motorola phone. non windows device), my cellphone number was visible. So this works exactly as c0rnholio states.
tried it on my wizard and nothing happens, international format or not. It says message sent but i never get a ping or anything back even to myself
I tried this on my apache as well and had no success. Maybe I don't know how to enter the phone number properly. I also live inside the US and have Verizon if this helps at all.

AFAIK the APache is a CDMA device. Handling of SMS is sligtly different between CDMA and GSM. This program is written for GSM Networks and due to the lack of a CDMA Network and a device which supports it, I cannot make it compatible. Sorry.

It might be that your network opertor is blocking such messages. Have you been able to send class 0 sms in general with other tools?

A class zero message is displayed in general. Also it is right that your number is shown. Some phones are able to save those messages, others are not. So in general everything is fine and your operator supports class zero messages. If you get a class 0 message and to not click on options->save or whatever the procedure is on your phone, the message should be discarded according to the GSM standard.
The number obfuscation only seems to occur on windows mobile based devices. On these, when a class 0 message is comming in the device will not show the senders number but instead show "Network Message" or "Network Administrator". This seems to be a bug in windows mobile and may lead to further attack scenarios because a user may think this message is comming from the network operator. If you send a wap push SI message for example you can embed a link to a webpage, or a link to a cab-file on a webpage. The user might then think this link is from the network operator and click on it. This may lead to mallicious code installation or execution or whatever.
The "Silent Ping" is defined in the GSM standard. It is a kind of message which must be received by the handset and must be directly discarded without user notification. I've tested this with different phones from different manufacturers and it never failed to work, but YMMV.
So your phones behaves in the normal range of operation. Have you tried to send the PING to your nokia? If so, and your nokia shows it, what is displayed?
PING works as advertised - no sign of it at Nokia at all.
works fine on most handsets, but the Nokia display your number.
Nice program
this is somewhat a nice-and-funny program....i like it....though i haven't figured out how the function "Ping" does as i have tried by following the instruction from its official site......weird.....One thing is important to whom may it fail with other functions....pls do remember Enter International Format in a word coutry code....for exampl like me Hong Kong is +852..
cheerz
Does anyone know how to get this to work?
It can be found in Start - Settings - Phone - Advanced Tab
Mine is ticked but doesn't seem to do anything when I choose Ignore to an incoming call (i.e. the caller is not sent a text message saying the above)
Any ideas
I have wondered about this for a long time, but haven't come up with anything to make it work, sorry.
I usually disable it sooner or later, just in case.

I have unlimited text messages so charges isn't an issue for me.
All I can find is the option to send a text message when a call comes through, but nothing to automatically send a text message on an ignored call.
Hm, I think it's like this. Someone is calling you and if you wan't to ignore/reject the call, put your phone upside down on a table(with screen to the table), the call will be automatically ignored and I think THEN the message will be sent try it, not sure
I think, I have figured it out.
On an incoming call, you have the option to click on "Send text" in the lower left corner. The call is then rejected and you can compose an SMS to send to the caller.
I use an app called SMS Minder to do this myself, and I'm quite pleased with the results. You can have it respond to all missed calls/texts (select BLACKLIST & leave the field blank) or only to missed calls from certain numbers (select WHITELIST & add the numbers you want to respond to).
I've been using it for several months and it makes my work so much easier. I'm a cabdriver, and when a call comes in & doesn't get answered for whatever reason SMS Minder sends a message that says "I can't talk now, please text me".
For the longest time I didn't really trust Texting that much, but it's become an integral part of my work now. So much easier to read&reply to an SMS (10 to 15 seconds tops) than it is to dial voicemail, listen through the prompts & recital of the phonenumber, then listen to the message...and finally after all of THAT is done, then return the person's call. Texting is just that much easier.
Especially if I use a program like this to automate my responses...and a program on my desktop to send other text messages just like they were an email (it's got an interface similar to Outlook). I plug the phone into the computer & tuck it away...then any interaction I have with the phone is done by using Jeyo Mobile Companion (SMS interface with additional cool features) and/or MyMobiler (fully manipulable screen-shot of the phone's screen) on my desktop.
Of all the apps I've tried and/or discarded, these three have become almost indispensable to my work.

Posted Android app on non Android forum by mistake. Sorry!
i believe, given the age of this thread, that it is about the native windows mobile feature to reject calls with an sms and there was no need to bump the thread with an app for another operating system. also, on android, depending on your phone and rom, this feature might also be pre-installed and available from stock, w/o the need for a 3rd party app.
Does anyone know of a good call usage monitor. I use to have Phone Dashboard but I can't add this to the HTC Homepage. The call timer in Windows Mobile only monitors all calls not just outgoing calls, as far as I can see. Any ideas

Ummm....have you checked under the call history button on the dialer? When you launch your dialer, click on the call history button. If its showing you all calls click on menu-->filter and select only outgoing calls. It should show you only outgoing calls now as well as durations for each. At least that's how it is on WM6....I don't know if they've changed if for 6.1
Nope. You can view only the duration of the calls when you open Call History and select specific person in it. Or through Contacts -> Click contact -> Menu -> View all calls.
It is very disappointing, because at least I want to know the duration of the last call. Doesn't matter if I end up the call or the other party. This dialer doesn't show last call time!
Thanks [email protected].
However, the Call History lists all the calls made or have come in via the filter. However, I want to know how many minutes a month I have used and unless I try and add all the outgoing message together, I'm stuck.
Under Call History there is a button called menu which gives the option "Call Timer" but if you click on this it gives you the total number of calls made since last hard reset (I assume) and the number of minutes used since last reset. Most people, I would think, with a contract want to know the number of outgoing minutes since last reset (with reset being since the last cut off date for calls on their contract). This appears to be missing. Can anyone help or know a program that does this that could be intergrated with the HTC homepage.

I'll second that, any way of\software for knowing how many minutes have been used in the monthly bundle?
Try Home Screen Plus
Have you guys tried Home Screen Plus? Its a great piece of software...and If I'm not mistaken it does have a feature to track call timers etc. Give it a shot. Its free Make sure you download the latest version. I know of a lot of other older versions floating around.
that is a real cool app but also a little heavy just for the calltimer. Anything with a small footprint out there?
Thanks Guys. However, I want to keep the HTC homescreen but I don't think you can add bolt ons to it, so any homescreen add-on won't work. I need a program that runs on its own that monitors the minutes and then being able to access it via the programs tab.
Found - LCMinutes
Not the easiest to configure, but once you grasp the concept it's a doddle (and elaborate).
LCMinutes :X
so i played around with LCMinutes and all it did was give me a headache! lol
i found this and wanted to share:

I had heard it didn't work on the HD but if it does, how about sharing it on the wiki
Can anyone comment if this works with TF3D?
Call timer on Dutty´s Touch HD 2.1 is missing?
Hi there!
Anyone having problem with a missing call timer on Dutty's 2.1?
Or should I do a hard reset?
Thanks!
I am using phone dashboard which I find is very good and should suite your needs. Without Today screen it is a pain to use but still possible. Goto settings->Today then highlight the plugin and options. There is one tab which shows you the usage. But you have to "regenerate" the data before viewing.
Alternative, why dont you just run TouchFlo + Today screen (using TFD or SecondToday).
I know phoneAlarm also have a call duration tracking but phoneAlarm is just too much of hassle to configure.
