Fax software

Hi,
Does anyone already have a solution? This is the only, but big drawback that I have with my Qtek 9000.
Thanks,
J Fonseca

Does that allow you to receive faxes to your device?

It doesn't work
Hi,
I tried that software, but it's only to view fax files, it does not allow to send or receive faxes.
i'll keep looking for a working alternative.
Thanks,

Hi
I found this one on a Yahoo Group:
http://www.samtechnc.com/eng/introduction/mfax_intro.htm
It should work on my Qtek 9000, but i was not able to try, because i don't have enough skills for that.
Maybe someone here can try and post their experiences

Mfax is for PocketPC 2003. I asked them when they may make it available for WM5 and got the following reply;
"Right now we do not know if and when we will be able to support Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC Phones with our software.
The problem is that the modem i.e. network manufacturer (Qualcomm with their CDMA network) is not supporting fax class 1 or 2 in their system. Therefore we are not able to support the WM 5.0 Pocket PC Phones (or the CDMA based WM 2003 Pocket PC Phones). Furthermore HTC is - due to the lack of support from Qualcomm - not able to support us either.
So we are stuck in the middle. As long as Qualcomm doesn't set a higher
priority to the fax class support within their network (modem) we can do
nothing about this issue.
As soon as they would change this issue we would immediately be able to
support WM 5.0 Pocket PC Phones as well as CDMA phones using their network.
Frankly, I do not think that this issue will be solved soon. Faxing is still
seen as not important by the big companies (which I certainly do not agree, but we do not have a lobby or a direct contact person at Qualcomm, who has the power to change this)."
Maybe we should start lobbying Qualcomm.

We are MFaxCE's developer
We are the developer of MFaxCE. Actually, we have already ported our MFaxCE to WM5.0 successfully, but we found that HTC have changed a lot or haven't open the port for fax on WM5.0 device, we still fail to send/receive fax on WM5.0 right now.
However we are working with some manufacturer who is willing to modify their driver to make our MFaxCE capable of fax on their WM5.0 device. And we are also looking forward that HTC can do some modification or disclose some information to us, so that we can make MFaxCE compatiable with all the HTC WM5 device.
We will keep you posted about any news in the future!

any news ?

Softwate to send faxes

Please, Could anybody tell me if there is any software to send faxes from the S200?.
thanks in andvace

no idea
I tryed every software i found, none worked for me
please help!
P.S. I want to use my XDA as a fax modem to SEND faxes. I know that I need to pay the provider for extra data-number if i want to receive faxes..

As far as I know there is currently no fax software working on WM5 devices - I looked because I wanted it also. KSE have good software but not WM5 compatible.

WM5 fax software??

I'm looking for fax software for my Tytn that will allow me to send and receive faxes directly on the device.
I looked at Phonetools 5.0 but the trail version doesn't work. (It doesn't say that is is for WM5: only 2002, 2003 and 2003SE)

Possibly a stupid question, but does tytn have a built in fax modem? I know my previous phone didn't, which meant my fax software on my previous pda (via bluetooth to the phone) was useless. I used KSE Trufax, which I always liked. These days I use the fax to email gateway provided by my isp (redirect to your mobile email address and you're at least sorted for incoming fax).

I assumed that since it has a data modem, it would have a fax modem as well. I checked the specs, and I was correct. Didn't check it upfront
I will look google for your suggestion. I do have a fax-mail number set up, and I could forward it to my email address on my phone.

This is a very common question I've answered several times. Unfortunately, you can only use online fax services as no local fax apps run under WM5 because of HTC's disabling the fax ports that were still open and available in pre-WM5 devices. Some of them even work on the Pocket PC; I recommend for example http://www.efax.com/

until someone finds a way to receive the faxes directly on the device like you can on the nokia communicator(s), I guess the next best thing is to install a email to fax/sms gateway to my MS exchange server.
I allready had the sms gateway installed since it was free if I didn't use the fax gateway from GFI faxmaker, so I could remote activate pull email using WM2003/WM2005 without the real push functions.
If someone has a better suggestion how I can send the fax directly from my device, let me know!!!

Please notice that KSE Truefax is NOT running on Pocket PC Phone Edition devices with integrated modem, like XDA I + II, MDA I + II, Qtek, i-mate, etc.

Send A pic as a FAX
Im not sure this is exactly what you want , but maybe this will help

I have used www.yac.com to send faxes. Once you set up an account you can email them a word document and it gets faxed to the number in the subject line. But I think there was a minimum spend of £30 a year or so. They also do a free fax 2 email service (person sending fax pays as it's an 07 number)

[Question] Sending faxes with the Diamond

Is there any software which those I can send a fax on my Diamond? KSE TrueFax seems not to work with it!

faxes
It's a weird thing but support to send or receive faxes from windows mobile seems to have been removed from the os since WM5.
So kse truefax will not work on any 6,6.1 or 6.5 devices
Somebody have more recent news ? I remember that we used to speak a lot about this in the old times but not since some months.
