Hi guys! This is my first post!! Just got an I-mate Jam, just wondering how does one disable SIM contacts on smart dialing. When I try to search a contact on Smart Dial, it shows both contacts I have in the phone and the contacts in my SIM card, therefore 2 contacts would show up. Anyways to fix this?
Please RTFM! :shock:

ooo get the wannabe mod :roll:
What if he got the phone without a manual or has lost it.
Its the guys first post!!!!! The reply was unacceptable.
If i had a manual myself i would have told him the answer.
Ha, I've got the same thing on my MDA Compact- hasn't really bothered me until I saw this topic
I will have to RTFM tonight i think :lol:
It makes a VERY BIG DIFFERENCE if at least explain that the unit was acquired without the manual or CD which contains the manual, or as you (pda) said the manual/CD got lost.
I've been in Tech Support for 15 years and believe me, I know when people ask for help without reading the manual.
@sh500: That's the right attitude! Right on!
i rtfm - 3.3 Smart dialing (page 22 in russian manual) but did not find the solution....
hmm, so zerimar, y dont u tell us how to do it? i believe u do kno how to do it, coz u've been in "Tech Support for 15 years" and must hav "rtfm" pretty many times n probably kno "tfm" by heart.. theres no harm tellin as "Forums are designed to help people" rite? :wink:
From Page 49 of Manual
Smart Dialiing searches the Phonebook entries in both the SIM card and Pocket Contacts, as well as numbers in Call History (Incoming, Outgoing, or Missed).

With what is said in the manual there is no way of filtering out entries from the SIM card. The only way is if there is a 3rd party software that would;
1. Replace Smart Dialing
2. Have similar feature like in Nokia phones to select which phonebook to use .
@Appu: I never read manuals from cover-to-cover for whatever gadgets I buy, but I browse through it to have an idea of the features, capabilities and limitations of the gadget. I keep the manual handy just in case I am not clear about something.
Forgot to mention. The only way would be to delete the entries in the SIM card (anyway a copy is is Pocket Contacts which is then syncronized to Outlook).
aah so thts how it is.. thanx, zerimar..
hope this info by zerimar was useful for btong and everybody else around..
Ah it's a shame there was not concrete answer....
What's not concrete? It's crystal clear that it's designed as a feature but for most of us has become a disadvantage. This shows that's it's a limitation of the OS/software. From the day I acquired my S100 and noticed the problem, I have already started searching for a solution (3rd party software, or registry hack).
This is similar to the BT issue. By default, the only way to switch on BT is to switch off Flight Mode first and this is solved by PocketMax's Phone Alarm.

Well I was making reference to the originial question and the simple answer to it is no, you can't select which phone book to browse; whether the manual was read or not prior to the question being asked.
In my opinion a 'designed feature' in this case would be one that gave users the option. The way it is currently is more of a 'design by default'.
Thanks, that's the answer I wanted... It's my first time posting here, doesn't mean it's my first time posting in a forum. I wouldn't have asked this question if it was clearly written on the menu or if someone asked the same question in the forum... 15 years of tech support eh? maybe it's about time to change job before getting fired...

Sometime ago I saw here comments about a software that was pretty usefull for me, but now I don´t have it anymore, I don´t remember the name and I would like it back very much.
What it does?
It is used to clean somekind of garbage information left everytime the PPC is softreseted. This garbage make the PPC becomes very slugish with time and the use of this software help clean this garbage and soo bring some speed back to the PPC.
Someone did used this software?

Hi,
I have the I-mate Jam.
I got this problem when sending text messages.
Each time I send one the message : Message send.
comes in my screen twice.
First I tought it was just a second warning but then my friends told me they got 2 messages each time with the same content.
And yes I get billed twice aswel :-(
I didn't try to hard-reset my I-mate yet couse I wasn't sure if this was just a technical problem or a setting in the messaging system.
Do you guys have had any probleems that looks simalair like this one?
or have any idea on how to fix it?

Is it not a general rule that before posting one should;
1. read the Stickies
2. browse through
3. search
In fact here's a nice link for everyone which I believe it was initially posted by "nonentity" http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/posting.php
Some people are just so dumb lazy and don't bother to do any of the above.
Why not just stay out of the post.... instead of replying with foolishness.
Just makes you look like you got your head up your arse..
It's the guys who post stupidly who have their heads up their asses.
Infact I did use the search function but didn't found what I was looking for.
But thanks anyway.
I have pocket plus installed so think it is solved now.
Thank you Zerimar you really know how to help people you should work at a helpdesk :wink:

Guys,
I know I sounded harsh but my point is that by doing some search with the proper words (i.e. sms sent twice, or sms sent 2 times) for sure you will easily find your answers:
Just to prove to you guys, I just now did a search using the parameters mentioned and found over 15 posts in a couple of minutes. In the third link, which is from Oct 2005 "elyl" already mentioned that this same question was already posted.

No he's not a smart a**. He's actually a quite helpful member of this forum. His suggestion to search is that standard answer by anyone who's been around and/or contributed to this forum for any amount of time.
The point of the Search function is to try and get newbies and the inexperianced to look for the answers themselves and not make other members repeat the same information over and over for every new member that is either too lazy to search and read or just doesn't know that the Search function exists. The information posted here is so far and above what your carrier or software or hardware vendor could provide you for any price and it's available for FREE. So respect the forum and respect the members or go call your service provider for answers. (HA)
You are in no position to tell anyone, especially a Senior member to "shut up" if they don't have an answer.

@evilhomer - thanks for the support.
@wratran - so the seaching or reading is working for you obviously since you found one of those links I was talking about.
To the topic - I wish we could get the UA bypassed in WM6 PIE since I do not like NetFront. I think pappl is looking into it.

wpbear, have you tried this solution to the UA problem? PAPPL and some Europe users were having the same issues and he made a .zip with some files to replace the default files that are keeping PIE from sending out the changed UA in the registry

I am happy to report this works and I will be posting two cabs shortly to make this install the two files and make the reg fix. One cab will be just the fix and the other will be a realplayer all in one fix.
EDIT: Here are the CABS
EDIT- Cabs removed- the fix by pappl causes some to have email problems. If you still want his fix since it works for most people then go to his thread.
Glad it works for Cingular Video as well. Nice work making the .cab files!

Exactly what has changed in this forum when people who are upstanding members of this community, like wpbear are put down and attacked by "big shots" who want to show they are better than the others on here? wpbear's comments were valid and to the point. It's really quite annoying on a **developers** web site to have the same questions asked over and over again. wratran--get over yourself. So, you can search. Yay. How about you post the results of your search without the person attacks next time, huh?
This forum is NOT for kiddies who are just learning how to make a phone call. It is, in my opinion, a forum designed for DEVELOPERS who actually understand what they are doing! There are n00bie forums around that will fit you better. HowardForums.com comes to mind...
I rest my case....
you noticed wpbear finally post a link to help a member...instead of making smart AS* remark. Look at his first response after the question was asked...and see how obnixious he was...
The search function on this forum does not work very well. I did not get that link by using the search command.
Since I have still not upgraded to WM6 (holding out for WMXL 3.0), I can confirm it works on WM5 AKU 3.3 with PIE. Awesome work guys, I really didn't like Netfront and now it's bye-bye gone!
Huge problem with this fix with outlook email not opening. Email list opens and then the message will try to open but it freezes. Have to close poutlook to get out of it and still can't view emails until HR. I veriefied it is was by installing each app I Had one a a time. I havenot tried this again with the manuall fix and checking email. I will try later.
Edit-The webview dll is causing the email and sms problem but without it the favorites links in pie do not work.
Ugh... yeah, I can definitely confirm that problem!
Is it possible to fix without a hard reset? (I haven't looked inside your cab yet.) I just got all my apps reinstalled and set up on the latest LVSW!
some reason i did not have the outlook problems.
i am using wm6 black 1.2 version with netfront 3.3 and shogun realplayer. i followed the instruction from lokemup and it works.
to many things to comment on here... so i will just tell everyone to place nice or i will lock this thread, since there was already a massive thread on this....

I think you guys must be confused...
In my case, when i call someone that is on a call with call waiting activated on my HTC Touch doesn't "say" anything. On my old Nokia it "says" Waiting.
Another think i noticed is when i receive a diverted call on the old phone says "diverted call" and then put a simbol before the number. On my new phone no information about it is displayed.
I know this happens with HTC's... don't know about other brands...
Can anyone know if there is any app that can make the phone "smarter" in this case?
Click to expand...

I think if we can get AT Command or anything like that in PPC can find the main code of alert and write a programe to show the messege for call waiting
how to do it? is any programmer here to know this?

no answer?
it is very important for me
please help(

Guys,
The reason why this thread will not get answered is because there is a very valid campaign to reduce the number of threads in this forum, especially the ones that have nothing to do with Developing & Hacking or with new developed software.
Too many threads on here makes searching for something specific really difficult. Also there are plenty of people out there who can't be bothered to search and treat this forum as some kind of unpaid Q&A resource.
If you had taken the time to read first you would have found this thread to post your question in...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398571.

Hello everyone,
I am looking for a program that will let me click a button and record my phone coversation with someone on the cell phone. I do not know if that is even possible but I would like to be able to record important phone calls to my SD card.
Please let me know if you know of any software or way of doing this.
Thanks,

yes ... yes there is an app available regardless of the countless threads describing why there cannot be one (cred to Menneisyys who worked on that for ages)
how the app works is you pay someone to follow you around ( a stalker is good for this purpose and costs less) then when your phone rings you simply
-Hand it to them to answer
-Give a brief detailed message to the person on the phone(get someone with a good memory, it costs more but it is worth it)
-They write down a message.
-They hand back the phone (providing you pay them enough) then hand you the message.
its as easy as that!
(you could also just search to find the answer!)
Thank you for a very usless answer. I hope you didnt hurt yourself typing it.
Also searching it dont help because smart people like you post crap without knowing the answers so if you search there are 10 people saying that it works with resco or pm tools or vito recoder and others and the other half says it wont work with smart phones.
So who is right?

Old postI gave up on but i have not been here for a while and just have to say it.
Ok so the links he gave me take me to crap about answering machines which i was not looking for. I need to record phone calls not an answering machine. Also even if i was looking for an answering machine those posts still do not answer any questions just couple of people one saying well its hardware another no its software another we can break it another no we cant .....
The hardware limitation in the Hermes, and most other WM PPC phones for that matter, applies equally to answering machine as well as call recording software.
Buy a Gigabyte WM phone if this functionality is important to you. Or better, any Nokia Symbian S60.
Actually it DO appears to work...
I haven't done too much experiments yet but answering machine on my Hermes seems working fine.

Interesting... and the quality of the recorded audio is good? You don't need to keep the phone in speakerphone mode to record the audio, i.e. the phone will be quiet while recording the audio?
Does not work on hermes.
Yep... I'm having troubles too.
It seems I have spoken too fast.....
BUT they have released 3 major updates in the last few days.
New version is iSecretary 3.0.
Going to test it.
*EDIT*
In the first post they are looking for Call Recording software.
Answering machine is quite OT, so I posted my first impresions in the correct thread.
