T-Mob are now allowing calls to any suppliers 07744 numbers again out of X-Net Inclusive Minutes.
This means free international calls.
But I have to prefix the 07444xxx number to my contacts.
I do not want to save my contacts with the prefix because I also call them without the prefix (e.g. when roaming)
Is there an application to do that ? I've tried PhoneCard 1.2 but it doesn't seem to work...
Any other proram to dial a contact with a prefix ? or to dial a contact while in a call ?

I mean that you can call a 07744 provider and then call any international number... i
f you have x-network minutes allowance in your contract (
e.g.. 400minutes free) then you will not be charged for the call...
It will use your free minutes...

jesus this will save me a few quid!
cheers cant belive i didnt know about this?
I wish there was something like that here on the other side of the Atlantic. I just tried calling 00447744200006 with my own calling card, thinking then to dial another international destination (because calls to the UK are cheaper than to that destination). My calling card does not allow calls to 00447744200006 - the call just does not get connected. That makes sense - my calling card wants to make their money too. :x
Hi, has anyone tried to increase the call history so that it will be unlimited? It appears that around 300 calls it starts dropping calls. And has anyone figured out a way to copy the call list thru active sync? Thanks, Ken B
I haven't tried to increase it, however I have seen a reg key that leads me to believe it can definitely be changed. I'll see if I can find it again.
Haven't bothered to try copying the call history though.. that's what I usually use my statement for..
HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone\CallHistoryMax
try this
That would be the key I was thinking of. Thanks fordcan!
Nothing at all :wink:
Has anyone tried to modify the DWORD Data value?
Over at the PDAphonehome forum a poster "jrider" tried doubling the DWORD Data value and it did not change the limit of just 300 calls. The DDWORD Data value is set at 65535, is there anyone who has found an amount that would make the call history unlimited, or increase it? Thanks, Ken B.
does anyone have any new ideas on this subject to bring to the table?
Just curious question, since PIM Backup can backup the call history is it still a grave matter to increase the limit?
Advanced Configuration Tool v3.3 IS ALSO NOT WORKING FOR THIS PROBLEM
I am presently using a Wizard. Previously Himalaya and Blue Angel.
I have always had a problem with the ring duration of incoming calls. I have tried the GSM fix "#61##number" ..., but cannot change the settings (invalid command).
I dont know if this is a KPN Holland problem, but I do miss many calls because I dont get to the phone quick enough.
Anyone know any Registry fixes ??
Tony
Hi, I think this is a network setting. You can not change it thru the registry.
By the by, I think you are entering the code wrong. It should be ** not ##, like this:
If your mobile's voicemail number is, for example:
+27-82-131-987-6543
....and you want your phone to divert to your voicemail after say 20 seconds, then type:
**61*+27821319876543**20#
The time can be up to 30secs (network default)
ACTION CODE
Set number of rings **61*YourVoiceMailNumber**N#@
Cancel previous Setting entered ##61#@
N =Ring Time (up to 30sec)
@ = Send/OK button on your mobile phone
Got the above info from:

Thanks Nispen, but I have tried what you suggested. I get
"Command not supported".
When using Phone/Services., I get "cannot save settings", so I guess this is
a KPN problem. Other people are getting the same thing with HP Ipaq's.
Development of VoipCall has been stopped.
VoipCall 0.2.1
In the VoipSMS thread people started asking for a similar program for calling. So here it is
It's a first trial. If you've got some suggestions; let me know.
Requirements
You need the .NET Compact Framework 2.0 to run VoipCall.
Instructions
In order to use VoipCall, it's important to configure it first.
Go to options and set the following values on the first tab (Application Settings)
Pause sign: p (lowercase, this is default, however unlikely your phone might have a different sign)
Default country code: this is a digit code which will be used when no country code is set.. For The Netherlands it's 0031. For Germany 0049 etc.
Use '#' Sign: set to true.This will add an '#' sign to the end of the number to call. This is needed by VoipBuster.
Accounts (second tab)
Add a new account by tap and hold on the list of accounts. Enter a friendly name and the number.
The number can be retrieved over here: https://myaccount.voipbuster.com/clx/accessnumbers.php?form=profile
(Login first and then go to : 'Make VOIP calls from your fixed/mobile phone)
Select your country and a city. The number displayed must be filled in on the VoipCall settings)
Done.
Now you can use VoipCall ;-)
Just select a contact or type a number in the textbox at the top. and press the call button.
Have fun!
Versions
There are two versions available;
- For PDA/PocketPC
- For SmartPhones
The SmartPhone version has some limitations. It does not support favorites and currently only 1 account. Hopefully I can change this soon.
PDA
Changelog
Version 0.2.1 (31-05-2008)
- Parenthesis in numbers will be removed in order to make calls.
Version 0.2 (22-05-2008)
- Move favorite down/up in contextmenu on favorites
- Delete all favorites
- Order favorites fixed
- Phonepad will be visible during call
First attempt...
Hi Mathieu,
Thanks for the app! I tried it but I have few comments:
1. After configuring the app and using a country code where I'm at right now (France) it looks like the app tried to call to my own number...?
2. I saw that VoIPbuster actually has a Java app where you enter your own number and the other party's number and when you click "call" it dials back to you and then connects you to the other party. Can your app use the same method?
The reason I'm asking for (2) is because at least for me, I travel allot and I would like to redirect my call to either a local landline or other mobile phone which is different from the one I registered; doing so will be very useful...
I noticed that the app (also the XP app) using UDP to communicate with VoipBuster so I'm not sure if this is an open interface that they publish or not but it will be very useful!
Again, Thanks allot for the efforts!! Let me know if I did anything wrong and why the app initiated a dial to my own number after selecting someone from my contacts to call to...
Gil.
Hey,
Some quick answers.
1. Did you enter the correct number for the account? It must not be your number, but the service number from VoipBuster.
For France it's: 0170909535
2. I've to take a look at that app. I'm aware of its existance. Unfortunately VoipBuster is not giving away a lot of information. But I'll take a look at it.
Another option is to configure multiple accounts. You can switch accounts at the bottom of the main screen.
Ok, now it's clear
So I will have to enter the local access #. I will try that tomorrow morning...
Let me know if you have more information about phone-to-phone using two numbers (my own number and the number I want to call to) it has lots of benefits when one is abroad and using a pre-paid SIM card... if VoIPbuster will call me instead of me calling out - I will not be charged locally for the incoming call. I will only have to pay VoIPbuster charges which is much cheaper...
Thanks!
Gil.
hi Rhapsody, that was quick! didnt expect it so fast.. great idea and it looks like another very nice app...
ive been having some trouble with my voip calling from the internal wm6 possibility, so i cant wait to try this one
The VoipBuster rates for calling to your mobile number and the number you wish to call apply (plus a callsetup fee of 5ct). Costs for the calls will be settled via your VoipBuster account, so make sure you have enough credit.
Example: You are in the USA and wish to call a landline in the UK. You pay a callsetup of 5ct plus a rate of 18Ct/Min + 1Ct/Min = 19Ct/Min

It seems like you also pay for VoipBuster calling you.
I've uploaded a SmartPhone version.
Unfortunately I was unable to add favorites functionality as well as multiple accounts. Hopefully I can add this soon.
Rhapsody is the best
Rhapsody,
I've sent you an email with some additional information I've found for better automation of betamax services.
Take a look, let me know if some of these functions can be part of your client, it will be REALLY COOL if it can be implemented and make your program even more complete
Gil.
Thanks!
In the meantime I was also searching for some more information but without success...
I'm gonna check my mail now
Does it work only with Voipbuster? I only have account with Voipstunt..
It should work with every VoipBuster clone.
what about?
what about freecall.com? can I use this with account in freecall.com? imho freecall much better than voipbuster. they offer more countries to call for free, and free sms as well.

FreeCall.com seems to be another Betamax client, so the answer is yes; you can use this app for it.
In fact; the required settings are identical to VoipBuster. (http://www.freecall.com/en/geo.html)
VoipCall installation
Hi Rhapsody,
I use "VoipSMS". It's great, thank you for it.
I' ve tried to install "VoipCall", as well. Unfortunately, I can't select any provider nor can I define a new one because the "Account" tab is unaccessible, it is grey. Is it normal? My gadget is an Asus m530w smartphone with WM6 Standard OS.
I use "fring" with "Poivy" settings. It works fine. I' d like to use "VoipCall" with "Voxalot". Could you advise me the required parameters for selecting Voxalot, please?
Best regards,
tipmix
I am using Gizmo for my voip. can i configure it on voipcall 0.1
thanks

I cannot find anything about Gizmo on this issue on their website.
The only thing you need (for now) is a service number to call. This service number is a computer where you can enter the number you want to dial through the voip provider.
Gizmo is not a Betamax client so I think it's not possible.
Further I'm waiting and hoping for some help from VoipBuster itself. I've dropped a question at my contact at VoipBuster about if it would be possible to implement calling like on their website (that the service calls you and the recipient).

I don't know Voxalot. (Seems like there are thousands of Voip Providers)
The only thing you need to get it to work is a service number.
I'm not sure but you could try a number from this list: http://www.sipbroker.com/sipbroker/action/pstnNumbers
I'll try to look at the account issue asap. Thanks for reporting.
I am confused by the overall VOIP concept??
Is it truly free, or do I still have to have Skype or a similar account?
What other software must be loaded for your progiie to work?
Thanks so much!
pardon my ignorance, but I am not sure what this program is for. If you are calling a service number or if the service is calling your phone, aren't you charged airtime on your phone anyways? Or is this really a way to get international calls cheap or free using standard local airtime?
hi,
I have desire z, android 2.3.3 (stock soft and rom) and I installed dialer one. I can see last 500 calls only in call log even if I set "unlimited" in dialer one settings. Does somebody know how to set option to see full calls log.
thanks
