Hi, I'm using tapi on a imate 2003 jam phone and I've run into several features not being supported by that tsp, such as voice mail, wav files over the line, radio signal, etc.. . I'm trying to find a good phone with a good tsp to go forward with my development and was hoping a developer here would have thoughts on which phones had the best tsp. I don't care if it's mobile 2003 or 2005.

I have owned an O2 XDA for a while and I currently use an XDA II (Himalaya). I have now found myself supporting 8 XDA IIs devices and 15 XDA IIi devices, in addition to 6 Blackberries.
We are currently running Blackberry Enterprise Server and although I do not like the software or the devices very much I can't deny their impressive features. For the XDA devices we have a contract with O2 and provide wireless Active Sync and OMA using MS Exchange over both WiFi and GPRS, however management for the devices is a bit lacking. I am forever setting up devices for users who have hard re-set their devices or let them go flat.
With the Blackberrys the BES software can manage the fleet of devices, push software to them, define policy etc.
My question is, has anyone else used software that can manage PDA devices in an organization. I have been reading about MS System Management Server and its Device Management Feature Pack. Has anyone used this, is it any good, reliable etc.
I have looked into Blackberry software for the PDA's and it seems possible, but I would rather integrate with active directory and group policy if I can.
Also what are the possibilities of cooking ROMs and deploying them, such as getting rid of that damn O2 software and installing the GPRS monitor? While I am at it can I automatically collect log files in any way, such as the GPRS software or Active Sync errors (coz I get that allot of them). It would beet setting up all this stuff by hand. I will go ahead and give this a try anyway I think but I would be interested in talking to any one that has done this before.
In return I have noticed that there is not much information here on these subjects, and I would be happy to share my experiences in this area if it is needed.
Thanks for the advice.
I think you scared everyone off. What a scary thought, having to support that many devices. Just one is enough of a pain for most on here!
Well I have managed to configure the ExtROM of the blueangle deviced, and i am happy to say that my users can now take there xda IIs devices on the road, if they go flat, or hard reset, all is ok. I installed the demo version of Microsoft SMS server on my test network at home and i love it. Using this I created cab files that configured activesync, GPRS, VPN and browser settings that now mean my users only need to set the time, and put in the username and password and the hole thing is up and running, GPRS sync and all (my boss is very happy). All I need to do now is convince them to buy the software.
I am looking in to useing WMI to collect device information, and perhaps a .NET app to gather loggs etc.
Thanks for all your help. I could not have done this without this forum, cooking up my ExtROM and geting rid of the O2 software and even puting on a company splash screen are all very cool. (oh and i upgraded my xda 2 to 2005 while i was at it )
Some thougts
a cab to configure WiFi ? (registery patch?)
will the XDA IIi be as easy?
could i install tom tom useing the ExtROM ? to many prompts ?
and my origanl plee for help stands,
thanks again guys
Running 40 XDA2, some on a BES server, all using a flaky bespoke software requiring a BT connection!
Need some help on the MKROM stuff as I'm fed up of activsync 10+ times a day
Guys,
I thought it would be nice to receive a fax while shopping in the mall

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.
sending fax via wizard...
The only solution I have found is to sign up for efax. I receive my faxes via email in the form of a pdf To send... I email to the phone number of the fax machine @efaxsend.com I works excellent for me. I would rather have it intergrated... but hey... it works.
Cyb
Really no other possibility for a software like TrueFax ?

KSE TrueFax is integrated on the Qtek 9090, and it's a modem too...so what is compatible and not ?
Strange... even my old 9110 Communicator could send/receive faxes...
MFaxCE
Doesn't do word attachments like Truefax, but it does let you attach TIFFs. Only $9.95 too.
However, I couldn't get it to work on my Wizard. Just hung when trying to create a fax.
Ho hum.
DBo.
I found a couple I'm gonna try out...
http://www.handango.com/PlatformPro...d=2&N=96806&Ntt=fax&productId=177460&R=177460
and
http://www.handango.com/PlatformPro...d=2&N=96806&Ntt=fax&productId=186735&R=186735
Edit: neither of which work on my Cingular 8125.
I contacted the Truefax people, and they say that they need some "secret" info about the Wizards processor to get the fax software to work. The manufacturers have not released this info to them yet. They also stated that faxing is not a great priority with phone manufacturers now days, so they are not a priority.
So it looks like Efax on a yearly subsciption is the only way at the moment.
Come on HTC, pull your finger out of that hole and realise that faxes are still used all around the world on a daily basis.

There is print en fax software
Hi,
Does anyone already have a solution? This is the only, but big drawback that I have with my Qtek 9000.
Thanks,

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!

unfortunately there is no software for fax, working on WM5 platform. developers promise to correct problems in nearest future. you can use internet service to send/receive faxes.
