i plan to use universal but when i ask the reseller,can i receive/sent fax they say no because it use win mobile 5.it's right/not.if only software restriction i will ignore it and go buy it if hardware problem i will look another devices.
Hi,
No, if you want to send/receive fax with uni, there is no software supporting this pda. If you plan ton use your Universal as a modem linked to desktop, you'll be able to send and receive fax...

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

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 ?
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!!!

You can't, sorry.
I have the adapter - which plugs into the bottom of the phone providing a phone plug - that can be inserted into a phone/fax.
Has anyone got this to work? Is there something special I must do to use it as a Fax? I searched the forums - and saw nothing about this.
regards.

Sending and receiving faxes was possible with WM2003/WM2003SE but Microsoft, with their infinite wisdom, decided that this was not required in WM5.
If you have a special adapter then it requires its own driver and software.
Here´s one application
Although the description doesn´t state that is compatible with WM5 you could give it a try....

Fax
It seems you could fax with the software above using Att/Cingular's CSD service which I've heard isn't offered anymore. I've tried phonetools on my 8525 and 8125 devices and have had nothing but problems with the software.
An alternative to send faxes to and from email in which you can send attached files to be faxed to your recipient is Myfax at http://www.myfax.com
The supported files to be sent as attachments may be pdf, doc, xls, and more... I am currently testing this product on their 30 day trial offer. Their packages are pretty cheap and no extra charge for getting a toll free number.
Cortado.com is offering a similar product at http://www.cortado.com/index.php?s=23&lc=61&p=13, which requires the installation of the Content Beamer app on your device to send faxes wirelessly using your data connection. I am trying to test this service but have had problems with it, they appear to have some server side issues as I cannot access my account info on their site, and cannot send or receive faxes.
I'd go for Myfax, I have been pleased with the service so far and no extra software needed on the device to take up space.
See the description at the developer's web site. It doesn't list WM5 as a supported platform so the software probably depends on the OS to provide the support for sending and receiving faxes, and this is missing in WM5.
i want to use my HTC P3600 TO SEND FAXES EITHER THROUGHT IT OR BY MY LAPTOP HOW CAN I DO THIS?
There are a few programs that you can use, but none that I know of are free.
any of them can work on wm2005?
and what if i want to send through the laptop how can i connect the HTC P3600 and use it as a modem
still no answers until now?????????????????????
try mail to fax... you send the document to a mail adress, and they send it to a fax number.

Guys I Found This Software Which Is From Sony Ericsson And Its Made To Use With BackBrrey But I Dont Own One So I Want Some One To Try It ,I Think Its Special But I Dont Really Know How To Use It
Here Is The Link:

Its For Download For Free, You Guys Check It Out And Tell Me How Its Work And What Do U ppl Think About It
BB Connect for X1 has been out for a while... but it works assuming you have BB service enabled by your carrier. It does give you access to your bb email address minus HTML support. (A huge negative in my opinion) No pin messaging support, and takes over your data connection - meaning it asks you to disconnect from the BB network every time you try to use Opera or IE, etc.
