Hello...just wondering about an option in the Hermes if some one could tell me about the caller ID settings.
Does it have all 3 options suchs as the following:
Send caller ID to every one
Send only to Contact ( this is this the option I have seen in Smart phones but not in windows pocket pc smart phones)
Send to no one
If some one would be so kind enough to answer this it would be greatly apperciated
Hi Geek,
I don't think there are any settings in the phone to do this but it can be done manually.
There are 2 network enabled settings you can have setup by requesting them from your phone - CLIP and CLIR; CLIP is Calling Line Identity Presentation (show ID - also called CLI) and CLIR is Calling Line Identity Restriction (hide ID). These are done by sending *#30# and *#31# to the network respectfully. It's worth knowing not all network support CLIR.
So if you send *#30# to the network you will enable CLIP and everyone will see your ID. If you send *#31# to the network your ID will be hidden from everyone. your network should say 'accepted', 'enabled' or something similar if it accepts the request.
That covers 2 of your points. Now for the 3rd. If you have CLIP enabled (*#30# - everyone sees your ID) and you wish to hide your number from some people then you dial the number like #31#<number> SEND.
If you do it the other way and leave CLIR enabled (*#31# - no one sees your ID) then dial the number *31#<number> SEND.
Hope this helps.
Gav.

My (Genie) WAP dialup number is 915000. How should the country/area codes be configured please (if left empty they default to 0 and (125).
This obviously does not connect.
TIA

To answer my own question - whether the country/area codes are actually dialled or not is determined by the settings in:
Settings/Connections/Dialling Locations/Dialling Patterns. In this case 'g' should be entered for international calls, for the appropriate dialling location (Work, Home etc.).
Similarly, to dial an 0845 number for the GSM connection, the "+44" should be dropped, so the entry is 'fg'.
I notice that there are similar questions on the Forum - and I hope this helps.

Is there possibility to have field in adressbook saying in which network contact has his cellular phone? Ideally it should be automatically set based on prefix list (every netowrk has his own) but since it's possible to migrate with number it's useless.
The best would be to manually set network picture for every number.
And it would be nice having this picture also on dialpad skin.
I think maybe it should be possible to somehow overlay network logo onto person's picture?
Hi,
I'm using often companies like justvoip or voipcheap to call abroad. First you call a landline number in UK and then you type in the number you want to call. For example first you dial 01617002727, then you dial 007123456789#. Would it be possible to dial the number from contacts and it would automaticaly dial 01617002727 before? Thanks in advance
best regards
you can try to use FRING, i'm just use this software with voipbuster and voipcheap and i call the contact directly from my sim card without type any other number before
Fring doesn't work without the internet connection. Do you use voipcheap over 3G or you dial a local landline number?
best regards
i use frig over 3g and over wi-fi
MagiCall will do it.
I've tried magicall but it doesn't work. Probably it has to wait until you hear "welcome bla bla" before you dial the number
Maby you can use WM client sip solution, but it works only on speaker.
I use it to connect via 3G to my Asterix Pbx from home.
I think you can find a cab somewhere , but be careful to take the one witch doesn't affect your gps.
You might be able to add 01617002727p007123456789# or 01617002727,007123456789# in your contacts where the p is a pause.
magicalls works perfectly for me. From FAQ:
Most calling cards work in this way:
1. Dial the access number
2. Listen to the voice instructions
3. Enter your card number
4. Wait for a while
5. Enter your PIN number
6. Wait for a while
7. Enter the destination number
You may create outgoing rules like the following in MagiCall to automatically apply calling cards to the destination number.
Rule type: Outgoing call
Filter type: Specific number (You may select any filter type you like)
Phone #: +* (I want to filter international calls)
Action1: Change number
Call to: 8000,,1234,,666,,{phone}#
In the rule above, my calling card's access number is 8000, card number is 1234, PIN is 666. Each comma ',' is used to pause for a second. {phone} is a placeholder which represents the destination number. If you need to pause longer, add more commas. (See attached pictures)
Hi All,
how to deactivate international call barring. I tried to deactivate it in HTC hero. But it asks a password. I asked my network operator O2 (Germany). They said, that the password is set by HTC. But I checked the HTC manual and googled, I have not the password yet.
Does anybody know this password?
Best regards from Munich
BS. theres no such password set by HTC, so it must be o2.
No bar on making international calls on my Uk Hero either. And at what Orange charge me for them I am sure they want me to make as many as I can
Or do you mean roamimg, i.e. using the phone when abroad? If so then often networks block that.
What steps did you take to try to activate international calling, because I have never even seen an option on my phone for doing that

Is the "outgoing international" box got a green tick against it? If not then the outgoing international calls are NOT called barred. On mine the ones above headed "all outgoing" and the one below headed "all incoming" are the same - i.e. with no green tick in the box and "disable" underneath. So on mine there are no bars.
But when I click on it it asks me to provide a password so that I can set up call barring, not so that I can get rid of it.
If any of the boxes have a green tick and you did not put it there then somebody has probably barred the calls and put their own password in. Since this is something that the user can do I do not think it will be HTC who will have done it
if it asks for a password, this is usually limited by the PIN2 on the SIM. This is set by the network and not by HTC.
If this is what you have got, with the ticks and everything, ask the network for the PIN2 of your SIM. They should be able to provide it as most networks set it to a default value, just as they do the standard PIN.
if you can not work around it..
You can look at calling cards.. which will save you money in the long run.
The calls are considered local calls on Calling cards.
just an idea....
good luck
Every time somebody phones, it says private number. How can i change so i can see whos calling.

Either the calling parties were using the CLIR service (Calling Line ID Restriction), either you are deactivating the CLIP service (Calling Line ID Presentation).
To check for the CLIP service, install my app Advanced Call Settings, select 'Line ID' tab, select CLIP, and tap the button Interrogate.
To activate it again, tap the button Activate.
You may ask your service provider for the availability of the service (it may depends on your contract with the service provider, or the local policy...)
