Is there a free Call SMS blocker that actually works, I've tried a few but they seem to not work.
I have a cingular 8125
the ones that I've tried are
Call SMS Blocker
I know you're asking for an app that's free, but your should really check out Magicall... It's only 25USD and workin splendidly on my wizard...

Hmm, sounds like a cool program, downloading 7 day trial now. Hopes it works as advertise. If it does, I'll consider paying for it.
But is there a free solution out there?
I have been looking for such program for a long time until I found MagiCall.
It works smoothly. Althought it is not free, I think it is worth the money. I'll buy it soon.
try "call sms blocker", blocks unwanted callers as well as sms

I have the trial version installed on my 8125, and yes the program works when it keeps the settings that were saved. I have to keep entering the no. I want blocked. I don't think it's worth the money.

It is not necessary to enter the no manually. You can select them from the Contacts or the phone log history. And it supports wildcards * and ?
It has a feature that I think is better than other products is that it filters Outlook's categories. So that I can put unwanted callers to a special category and let it block them.
It has never failed during my trial period.

free is absolutely great if you dont care about extras and you just want to chat. other than that.. its a hacked version of an old version of aim. its very buggy. doesnt auto switch from landscape to portrait and vice versa. doesnt show all of your buddies. and the list goes on. but its free and it works. so i dont complain.

yeah, VERY BUGGY. everytime i run the program, when i power off my phone (just by tapping, not holding power button) and turn it back on, it wont turn on. also when i go to the program (while it's already running) from the start menu, more than likely the phone will just freeze, causing me having to reset the phone.
grew tired of it & just deleted it the other day. thinking about looking into either IM+ or Agile. any suggestions between the two??
Here is AIM: www.aol.uk.co/aim/wince/index.html ... <it could be www.aol.co.uk/aim/wince/index.html but not sure...>
to use it, start it, then try to instant message someone by typing in there screen name and a message, at that point the sign in box will pop up and set it to sign u in automatically.
if i had to pick one.. IM+ is def. the best ive used.. its $40 (expensive) but it has a today plugin, custom away messages, keeps you logged in, and has like 4 other services you can use with it.
Great thanks guys. How does 'staying logged in' effect battery life? I mean say you didnt IM anyone but it was on all day, will your battery die quickly? I havent tested Pocket MSN but I thought it seemed to take up more battery when I had it up
Try this aim and see if you like it.. Its Free.

Try this cab, but I'm not sure it's free I think you'll need cingular data plan.
trying octro and fairly impressed so far. Weird how I need to make an octro name before i can use the 'legacy aim' lol
Ill check out the others as well, thanks guys!

The old aim that was hacked for wm5, works fine here...I use it nightly, goes from landscape to port.
the best messenger can u use very fast and easy
first make register on
http://www.palringo.com/register.php
and sign in your register in pocket pc now u can use program
looks attractive, any way we can get more screenshots than just the one?
This is what I use. It's been great for me
I used to use it, But I find JiveTalk to be a bit more polished.
I use palringo. First time I've heard of JiveTalk. It looks sexy! Downloading now =D
+1 for jivetalk. Palringo is good, but it has this annoying status bar icon that never goes away when the program is on. It takes up way too much space on the today screen for something that is pointless. I switched to jjivetalk and haven;t gone back ...

Read that the latest version gives you the option of removing the tray icon.

Not sure why, I know when I set mine up I registered on the site first and got all the registration stuff taken care of,then I downloaded and installed. Logged right in no problems. I have been using it about a week. Maybe go to palringos web site and verify you can log in there.
yes it has conference... all you have to do is make a group and allows you to talk to people in that group... it also allows pictutre messaging and audio messaging
may be due to sd installation... it works much better from main memory... been using it for about a year now, and it does auto updates as well... so for the most part i love it... i also use jive talk because it stores threaded chat sessions

I can log in into palringo's forum..
But using palringo on my device, it doesn't log in.......
When JiveTalk comes out of Alpha/Beta, it will go on a pay to use fee thing. Is Palringo free (and will it remain free)?

I have a G1 right now and I am planning on purchasing a TP2 when it is available in my area. What I want to know is (and I guess this can be the official thread for this) does Winmo have an "equivalent" or similar apps for the following android apps:
123Spoof: App that allows the end caller to see a different phone number that is not yours.
A2B:Allows you to save your location using GPS so you can find it later.
Anetshare = Touch Pro 2 WiFi Router: Turns your phone into a wireless access point.
Barcode Scanner: Scans barcodes with camera and searches online for cheapest price for that item.
Call Blocker: Allows you to automatically block callers (they will hear a beeping sound when they call you)
Google Voice: allows you to use your account on your phone through an app. From my understanding there is not an app.
SMSBarrage: Allows you to send 100 txt messages to 1 person all at once.
SMS Commander: Allows you to send a txt to your self with a special code that turns off and on settings. EX. if I text "123456" from any phone to my phone it will turn on gps.
I understand that Winmo is Winmo and Android is Android; They are two operating systems with two different goals. This will not at all persuade my decision in getting a TP2 but it would be nice to be able to have a reference for these similar apps.
As members give me answers I will place them next to the equivalent android app.
Thank you
if this isnt a correct spot for this thread can I have the mods please remove it.

It works here in Los Angeles California in the States.
It only allows free 2 minute calls. If you want longer then you have to pay.
For Barcode Scanner, try i-nigma

Just about any GPS app does this. I think the latest HTC cameras save GPS info in the picture files too so you can take a picture with GPS info embedded. But I'm pretty sure every single one of the many GPS apps you can get will save your location. I use Tom Tom but there are tons out there.

You'll have to go to the website linked from the first post (or read through the thread) because I don't think the front page is updated.
SMSBarrage: Allows you to send 100 txt messages to 1 person all at once.
Try SMS Nuke. You can do both Flash SMS and Standard SMS .
Just thought id start a wee best apps for function thread:
Backup:
Im looking for the best app to take care of as much of the x10s features and functions as possible? wifi hotspots, contacts pictures, apps, settings etc... does anyone have any favs?
Remote locator / destroyer:
Also looking for one of these applications that can locate ur phone when lost or delete all date remotely and render the phone broken.
Please feel free to add any other TOP fav apps to the lists.
thanks
andy
bump

ive tryed out a good few backup apps...free versions thus far...but im happy to pay for one that can back-up everything on the phone...ie settings etc!
ta
I use MyBackUp Pro and have had very good results with it. As for the other im at a loss.
Phonelocator is a good, free location solution.

Try using wavesecure for locking your phone in case it's stolen. I think it tells you where the phone is and stuff too. And it locks the phone as soon as someone trys changing the sim. Give it a shot.. i liked it.

It'll ask you for a password. So you can enter that and you'll be in.
I'm now using the SlideIT keyboard - where you slide your finger through all the letters of the word you want to type and it works it out for you and pop's it right in there... it's so very cool to use.. makes me smile everytime I use it.! I can type quicker than I ever did now.
and Hendcent for text messages - it's much more natural to use than the standard.
Couldn't find it by searching, is there an app or a hidden somewhere that will read the caller ID and then play the normal ring tone.
(i.e. "Incoming Call From <INSERT NAME>...."<plays ringtone>)
I wanted to try Ring Pro but didn't want to spend $3 on something that may not work.

Tasker can do that along with a million other things, it's a little pricey though.

Yeah - Trying not to spend $$$. I'm trying one of the free apps on the market to see if it does it OK. Right now it works but it uses the media volume and doesn't turn up on speaking.
