I'd like to test my video call facility, but don't know anyone else with a 3G phone yet. Is there some sort of test number that I can try it on, like Skype has the 'Skype Test Call Service' when you add username echo123 to your contacts?
just call to your operator help line in 3g mode, works with me in vodafone PT.
They all have videophones?

I am in the USA (NYC), using Cingular. When I let my Tytn use the UMTS bands, I get the following message from Cingular when I call my own cell phone number (or hold down '1' to call voice mail):
"The number you dialed is not a working number."
I can send and recieve other calls, sms, etc... Once I set the band to use GSM only, calling my number correctly brings me to voice mail.
My SIM card is a 64k 3G card.
Any clue what the problem is?
Thanks!

Have you programmed Speed Dialing to 1? In order to call to your voice mail (Cingular) you have to program your phone to dial +1 (806) 252 9009 when you press 1. YOu can program it by opening PhonePad ->Menu->Speeddial. I hope it'll help
caller id doesn't work
I changed the VM as you suggested. Interestingly, it doesn't recognize that I am calling from my cell phone, and asks me for my 10-digit phone number. I have now confirmed this happens either in GSM or UTMS Mode. Is that the normal behaviour? The VM feature works when calling the cell number from the cell phone (in GSM mode).
When I called home from my cell phone the caller ID was properly displayed. IE: that information is properly being sent. but I think the problem is internal to Cingular services.
Thanks,

Morning all,
I'm trying to make international (specifically calls to the US) using VoIP in WM6 but it doesn't appear to be working. I've tried a whole range of numbers but all I get is a few seconds of trying to connect, then possibly a connection for a split second, then it drops.
My provider is VoipCheap and I can make calls to the US fine using my laptop.
I can call UK numbers fine (44) and am using the international dialing codes, etc.
Anyone know what's up?
Thanks
With my older phone, if I have a GPRS data connection, incoming voice calls will be rejected (busy). I was told it is the same with all phones.
Can HD2 make or accept a voice phone call when it has a GRPS connection? Or an HSPA connect? With the My Location, Weather, and Direct Push, I can neve tell when my phone has a data connection. Does it mean I may be missing calls all the time?
I have no problems with my telco. They will "downgrade" my data connection whenever a call is coming thru.
Nope - works fine for me. Will be using MSN and then a phone call will over ride it

what phone would do that? You wouldn't happen to be with Verizon before, would you? My gf has a blackberry on verizon and whenever she's using the net incoming call would be rejected. I don't know any gsm phone would do that. I've had 5-6 GSM phones and they would allow incoming call and suspend your current web until the call ended.
Well, voice calls are made on a certain frequencies and data connections are made on others.
Ex: in my country the data connection is on the 1900/2100 freq, while the voice calls are on the rest.
So it should never be a problem. I believe its also the ability of the phone to use different freq for different tasks.
Thanks. I can now use the data connections without worry
Why not you try yourself. COnnect to data constantly and make a call to your number. What will happen...?
3G and GPRS/Edge won't block calls. But you can still use old fashion data-call. While I doubt any provider would provide data connectivity this way, I can't rule it out.
The T-mobile tab will allow you to use voice +EDGE or 3g/H data (US version, some report complete functionality in China and Isreal). The current work-around is the Roto Modem Switcher solution (brilliant!)
If you stay on the 3g/H modem, some have suggested google voice, voip, etc.
What can you do if using a voip service so someone receiving a call can see your cell number? What are your solutions so you don't have to reflash your tab, or switch sim cards between phone and tab?
I tried the skype app from the market, but no-go. Skype uses wifi in the US.
Fring works, but your caller won't see your number. They see 111 as your caller id, so they can't call back.
Google voice shows your google number not your cell number.
ooVoo wasn't any better.
What add on service will show your cell number, and allow people to return the call? And do this on 3g/h?

here's the file
Thank you. I will get after this and let you know how it works. I found something else in the market called Vopium. It works pretty good.
Something good to know..but this option is to get a new mobile number so not sure if you want to do so

Hi!
When I receive a call on roaming and reject it, for the person who is calling me doesn't receive the typical busy signal. Stills on calling
I tested this is national calls and it rejects the call and the phone that is calling me receives the busy signal.
Doesn't anyone have the same problem?
I'm using the Dezire HD rom but it happens also with cyanogen roms.
Thanks!
