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.

pocketnow.com -- it's all about portability...
http://www.pocketnow.com
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"
http://www.geek.com/news/geeknews/2002Jul/bpd20020729015637.htm
"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.

thanks

Dear all Hope the attached file helps u all.
hi! before my tytn i had nokia smartphone and i had program for bluetooth remote control. (control freak) now i have tytn, but i can't find good program. i need program, that controls winamp quickly and smooth. there are many winamp plugins, but they are very, very buggy and connects 1 per million. my old control freak connects for 2 seconds, the connection in strong and it had desktop control (the desktop screen appeared on my nokia)
so please i need such a program for partys and for comfort.
10x, very much!
I'm looking for something similar...
(on my Nokia, I was using Puppetmaster; but while there are .jar and ppc clients, I can't get them to work)
Jörg
I'll publish a BIG roundup on all these questions very soon (as did I with "full" remote control solutions - see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1092389 ) - stay tuned
Oh my, i loved control freak. It's an excellent prog with sexy GUIs. right now i'm using RemoteAmp for my PPC, not bad but it runs over wifi. Or you could run it over EDGE/GPRS/3G. Overall it's great, it GUI isn't that sexy, but it's workable.
Puppetmaster allowed one to control different programs (WinAmp, Zoom Player, Media Player, Powerpoint, Acrobat, ...) and allowed one to add scripts to get support for other non-natively supported softwares.
I'm currently actually still using my old Nokia as a remote (I kept it as a backup device)...
Jörg
PuppetMaster is great ("fantastic" is the word ), but I wish the developer would continue the development...
Perhaps this is an option:

Anybody found a good application that works well as a bluetooth remote control for Windows Media Player or winamp or divx?
I use Salling Clicker, it does pretty much all you ask but unfortunately it's not free.

Jaylee1024,
Up till now, I haven't been able to test your software, as I'm using a Widcomm stack on my PC's...
I'm about to reinstall my system, and before installing Widcomm, I'll give your software a test (given the bluetooth features I use, the MS stack may suffice for me).
But I have found a software (Altiris SVS) that might be used to allow switching between both bluetooth stacks, so I'll also see if/how that goes...
Jörg
I use PPC tablet. It is not that good looking but easy to use. You have different profiles for different programms and you can make your own profile realy easy.

Thanks VJ, I've had reports that some latest version of the Widcomm stack might do the trick, but if you could keep me posted on your tests, I'd be interested too
Thanks !

I second this. I've used it on my 7610, 6682 and now my 8525. It's fantastic. Plus you can control with either bluetooth or wifi

Apparently, that utility can't really be used to swap bluetooth stacks. But I now have the weird situation where both WidComm and MS Bluetooth stack are active at the same time . I'm not sure what this is doing to the stability of my system though , or if both effectively work, so I'll need to test some things first.

Hi again,
I have in stalled the latest Salling CLicker 3.0.1.347, but when prompted to setup my device i am unsure which to choose. The choices are:- http://www.salling.com/Clicker/windows/devices.php
I have tried WM5/Smartphone and a few Dopod ones (I have a Dopod 838Pro) and when I open Salling Clicker on the phone i get "Fatal Error Service Unavailable most likely cause is incompatible device or faulty installation".
Has anybody successfully set it up?
Cheers, hawsktf
Handset requires rebooting after installing Salling Clicker... It's all good
Also, don't forget to check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=294524 - it's the long-promised roundup.
Does anybody out there have, or know where to find some Salling Clicker scripts for Hermes?
Dear Prophet users,
Is there a way to use my nokia 6230 as a bluetooth keypad for my QTEK S200?
On screen keyboard is not useful most of the time.
I'm an expert on my nokia 6230's keyboard.
If it were possible to use it as a bluetooth keyboard for QTEK S200 it would be perfect for me.
And If it is not possible is there a blutooth keypad with 9 key phone key layout which can be used as "phone pad" text entry tool in WM5.0
!! NO BODY?? !!
No body have an idea ??

Can't you use the built in phone pad with your fingers?
Personally, I use Spb Full Screen Keyboard
I've been googling for a bluetooth keypad for a long time. Touch screen keypad is definitely not a good idea, at least for me. I'm on the road most of the time. Used to be able to sms without looking at the screen while driving. Can't do it now. I know I'm not suppose to do that but.... excuse... excuse... excuses....
The closest (but not close enough) is a device called "Frog" something. Can't remember the name. Emailed the distributor in Singapore. They didn't follow thru with my query. Sad....
I have a omz bluetooth keyboard,no wording in dopod 830 too...
No one ??
Actually I have an idea but I'm not a programmer so it is just an idea for me.
There are some software those enable users to connect their PC(server) via Bluetooth (and/or GPRS) enabled mobile phones (client).
There are two parts of the sotfware
1st to be installed on PC and works as server
2nd is a java program to be run on Mobile Phone.
This enables the mobile user to control the PC via mobile phone.
User can use navigation key as mouse and keypad of mobile phone as keyboard of the PC.
If there were a server part for WM 5.0, it would also work for PPC to mobile phone management.
Can anybody have a proramming background to perform this kind of software.
I'm sure it would have so much buyers.
no one ??
isn't there a good programmer to do this application
I think what you're describing there is remote desktop. This is already built into Windows Mobile (5 & 6), and can connect to any PC running XP Pro/Server/Vista. Alternatively you could use a VNC client opn your WM Device (there are a few around) and a VNC server on your PC (again, there are a few variants). Although this sounds like a good idea its pretty fiddly trying to control a whole PC using a touchscreen and an onscreen keyboard, and if you're anyhting like me you'll get sick of it pretty fast and just use a laptop.
As for the PC connecting to the WM device, this can be done using the Remote Display Control Powertoy released by Microsoft a couple of years back. You'll have to google for that one though. If you cant find it give me a buzz and ill post it somewhere.
A lot of Windows Mobile users have been asking for answering machines for years. While it has long been available on competing mobile smartphone platforms (for example, Smart Answer for the S60), for Windows Mobile, so far, there wasn't a generic one - that is, one that wasn't shipped along with a specific Pocket PC model only.
Now, this seems to be changing: the first "real" answering machine has been released for WM Pocket PC's.
iSecretary is one really nice working answering machine for Your Windows Mobile Pocket PC.
Features:
- Lifts the handset automatically when the preset time expires.
- Plays the file to the caller.
- Records your caller's message within the limits of preset time and hangs up.
- Contact list filter (choose an individual wav for each contact or group of contacts).
- Ignore list.
- Compatible with speakerphone (for PDA which can not work with signal in line).
- Autoload after SoftReset.
- Speakerphone volume control.
- Microphone control (its work with some PDA, For example: ASUS P525).
- Black list, reject ringing (filtering by phone number).
- Notify system.
- Task bar icon.
- Events system, send sms or voice message by rules.
- Emulate sound around you.
Found this on:
http://www.freewareppc.com/communication/isecretary.shtml
Before everyone starts asking this is from the site... I wish my device worked. (TyTN)
Tested devices on this moment (fully support):
ASUS P525, DOPOD M700, ASUS P535, ASUS P735, HTC Wizard, HTC Touch, I-Mate Jam, Rover E5, I-MATE JASJAR, Eten M600+, E-TEN G500, Toshiba Portege g900.
Tested devices on this moment (half support, outgoing message problem or some other problems):
E-TEN X500, ASUS P526, E-TEN M700, HTC TYNT, TYNTII, Vario 3, Universal, Vario 2, Orbit, Kaiser.
Thank u very much, works fine
does this means that now we have a way to record calls? It was the same problem, and now its fixed!
COOL!
turns off
isecretary turn off when we keep it on standby or power off mode...
ne solutions????
So doesn't work on the mogul?
iSecretary
I dont like it because of the hardware issues with not be able to record without speaker phone, plus this is useless if you have no signal, or turn off your phone.
The alternative that does private/unkown blocking, and allows custom messages for any caller you choose is http://www.youmail.com/.
I started using it last night with my ATT Tilt, and it integrated flawlessly with my service, I can't even tell I'm not using the default service (except that its much cooler).
As far as quick dumping calls it helps to get a firewall, seen a couple free ones around xda that look good, but since I already have spb phonesuite I just use th blacklist built into it.
Tried the latest version 4.6 on BlackStone. It did take the call. However got no greeting message. Still I continued to speak. But i didn't record (no wav file was saved).
I think recording should now be very much possible with running ICR in the background if not possible to code a custom recorder. Hopefully they can fix this.
ohh please wake up al!!
Dear al!!!
Before you try this soft. and start asking questions,I can tell u I have more win mobile handsetts,and not even the above mentioned phones are ok for this software.No flowless working yet.
I think the 4.4 version is lower than the 4.6!Even this latest works exact like S>H>I>T!Unfortunatly.
So hear my request LORD of h.a.c.k.s...Please someone who understand this winmo programms,build finally and for all a nice answering machine.On nokia the guys are already set wit the nice app.
Why we still have a lot of useless program,but no such as this what helps for sure more than hundreds of users????
thank you in the name of suffering Bill Gates haters! helios

isecretary is a good application but i am looking for a specific feature. I want the application to route calls at a specific time to answering machine and accept only calls from white list.
lets say after 12 night, i want calls to be accepted in white list while all other calls go into answering machine without even a single ring
those this do any extra charges on the phone??
Why iSecretary can’t mute the microphone of my xperia x1 and why the caller can’t hear my answer message
How can I fix this using registry or any tweak tool for windows mobile 6.1

hi, I have made a small application to retreive nmea information from my bluetooth GPS on my HTC Tytn phone ( wm6 )
I developped it using microsoft visual studio 2008 pro avec wm6 pro sdk.
I would like to include a button to activate/desactivate the bluetooth from my application, any idear how I could do that plz ?
You'll find native functions and description in the SDK-Help.
Anyway, bluetooth is not simple to handle.
I'd recommend to use a freeware called 32feet to use bluetooth functions in .NET.
I's a library which does the wrapping of native DLL-functions to .NET.
You can find it on codeplex.com.
But keep in mind that it is not guaranteed to work properly, because there are 3-4 different bluetooth stacks on the market and the library does not work with all of them.
Hi,
if I good remeber someone on XDA have made some library to enable/disable BT/Wifi/Phone, and it was make in C# or VB... and there was near 1 or 2 month ago.
I don't know how to find his post but the good users could help you...
Sorry for this little help Hope you'll find !
I've been messing around with the 32Feet libraries (6.1 Touch Cruise with MS stack) and found them to be very useful and reliable so far. But the may be overkill for simply turning Bluetooth on and off. VJVolubilis (http://www.vijay555.com/?Releases:VJVolubilis) may give you what you want but it looks to be only compatible with the MS stack too.
