I bought the Jam a few days ago. it's so good that i don't want to put it away. but there is one thing that i'd like to have on it. I used to own a symbian phone, and there are answering machine programs available on that platform. such as this one: http://my-symbian.com/7650/applications/applications.php?faq=2&fldAuto=303
I tried to find something similar for pocket pc but can not find anything. Has anybody here come across one of these at all? Thanks.

A long time back I bought some software for my SPV which was an answer machine, which was based on the actual phone rather than through the provider (Orange).
With this software, you could record your own greeting also stored on the phone itself, and if you missed a call or rejected one, it would be saved as a voicemail on your phone or on your memory card, with details of the number that left it.
You could select other different options like how many rings before it kicked in etc.
This saved having to pay to retrieve voicemails from the provider and was a very useful program.
Does anyone know if there is something similar for the XDA II available anywhere?
Thanks in advance
I haven't heard of such software, and have been looking for one as well.
I cannot believe it is not possible to have a software answering machine.
it is indeed
the first one and the only one i know was on the sony Z5 and M-Z5 phone witch is already 3 or 4 years old
it included a real answering machine on the phone independant from the one of the operator.
so i guess it might be possible on a smartphone but i ve never seen it on the orange SPV.

Sorry, my mistake there, it wasn't on my first SPV at all , it was on my Nokia 7650 and it was called AnsweringMachine_101
I still have the downloaded "sis" file here but am sure it wouldn't work on my XDA? :? :? :?
he he,lol..
Yes,answering machines softwares are popular on Symbian Based Phones.
But there ins't actually soft like that to ppc..or maybe try search on PocketGear.
Will be very interesting to have a Symbian Emulator to ppc!
Good luck!
I've been wanting to do this. Does anyone have any detail on accessing the phone (radio?) wave IO from the .Net Compact Framework? Standard DLL calls are, of course, an option.
Didn't the HP Jornada w928 Pocket PC Phone Edition include onboard answering machine software? I seem to remember reading that it did.

it is impossible to make an answering machine on PocketPC 2003 OS. This is a software and mostly hardware limitation. When call is established the audio output from wave driver is muted, and there is no way to make it play into the phone line so that other side would hear it. And there is no TAPI "wave/in/out" devices that are used by answering machine software on "big" compiters in PocketPC 2003. Built-in GSM modem in all phones I've checked, also does not have voice AT-commands like on voice modems on "big" computers.
Maybe Wince 5.0 would implement all needed functionality.
If there would exist a way of "unmuting" the waveOut device during a call, than it would be easy to write such a program for PocketPC.
Unmuting should be possible using calls to the core system DLL(s). All the same, VS.Net 2005 & WM2005 & its .Net CF will have SMS/Wave/TAPI functionality (so I've read) - hope I get them at work!

"Built-in answering machine with deferred answering
support"

"The 928 comes with voice-activation software, and--this is cool--has a built-in answering machine. This is not software to control your mobile carrier's voice-mail, this is an answering machine built into your PDA. "
Yep, the Jornada 928 WDA Pocket PC Phone 2002 had built-in answering machine software. I wonder who made that program and if it would work on an XDA.

Dear all Hope the attached file helps u all.
Hi everyone! This is my 1st post here so hopefully all goes well
I have had my new magician (O2 XDA II mini) for a week now, and have been playing round installing software and stuff and seeing what this thing will do.
I have installed Pocket Informant and like it - mostly for the ability to set sub-tasks (child tasks). I looked at Agenda Fusion & didn't see this feature.
Other apps I've got installed are pocket breeze, wisbar, pocket artist, betaplayer, pocket music and total commander. But i'll be looking thru these forums to get other ideas of software to trial before I decide what I like best.
BUT... I have found a strange problem. Once PI has run, my incoming calls are muted until I soft-reset (no sound, no vibration). The only notification I get that a call has occured is a "missed call" tool tip.
I think I've proven it is PI by calling my fone before PI has run (ervything normal), minimizing PI (muted), and closing PI (still muted).
I haven't seen any mention of this problem on this (or other) forums but haven't been around for long... maybe its familiar to a regular in the forum...?
Should I look at another PIM program? (know any with sub-tasks?)
Should I look at a setting somewhere? In PI? In windows?
umm.. basically just "help!" :?
edit: see below but I'm looking at Wisbar....
check out the wishbar advance... maybe that is one of the problem!
yeah... I was just trolling through the forums and came across this... testing it out now... thanks!

howdy.. got rid of my 6 day old Atom after downgrading to it from a Mini, so now I have my first smartphone its awesome
After using the sites search feature to answer a dozen questions I had, I am left with a couple of quick questions I cant find answers to..
I use Windows Powertoys to view my phone on my pc's desktop, although it doesnt allow the same functionality as it does if you plug a PDA into it.
What else is there to use that will emulate the phone on a pc desktop?
Thanks
U can try Pocket Controller-Professional v5.05
http://www.soti.net/default.asp?Cmd=Products&SubCmd=PCPro
Hey that looks pretty good.. thanks
Does exactly what I want.. you can send commands to the phone via the mouse.
Windows PowerToys doesnt allow that if you are using Windows Smartphone, only a PDA, CE device
Thanks
Err.. but wat i dun like is some software was installed in the phone right ?
Can I make pocket pc programes works on Symbian phones 9300i. please any one can help
You can look for Windows Mobile emulator for Symbian, but I don't think you will find one.
I looked for one but I didn't find any, can any one help me with this please!!!!!!!!!
It is impossible at the moment
There is no emulator
I have doubts that will ever be one
Is there a free bit of software that will allow me to use the ppc as an extended desktop.
I have played with side window, but would rather not pay for it as i don't think I will use it enough lol
RDC is another option
Would that extend the desktop (use the ppc as a monitor)?
yes..its a short form for REMOTE DESKTOP SHARING..just as u do in wiindows..btw which device do u have and which OS ?
I am on windows XP with an htc touch running wm6

With MyMobile you can do that!
You find it here
Not quite what i need, i use that to control my ppc, what I want is to actually use my ppc as a second monitor, but thanks NatroXz
if u have WM6..remote Desktop sharing is already their..just configure it to connect it to ur computer
ok, so that is letting me remote control my pc, how do i get it to act as a monitor instead? thanks so far!!
sorry a bit off subject
basically my mouse has died on me and i was wondering wheather there is a app to turn my ppc into a touch pad which would connect via activsync and control my pointer on my desktop pc ?????
thanks
yep, look up ppc tablet (not free mind)

Check out http://www.innobec.com/en/products.php for what I am looking for. It is good, but I want to find a free way of doing it, as it is quite handy having somthing like notepad open in the ppc whilst i work in the main screen
thanks for the reply i downloaded to software you recommended but it did not install on my x51v .
i ran the cab file and went through the set up ............it said it is installed but could not find it anywhere on the ppc looked in programs and file explorer ....nothing!
i ve got a axim x51v with a cooked a03 rom
thanks for your help
