how to enable dialing by name on Wizard - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

I used to be able to dial dial the name of the contact I wanted to call by pressing the numbers associated with the correct letters on the dial pad in the default dialer on MDA.
however, after i upgraded it to the newest T-mobile (ROM 2.26 I think), and skipping T-mobile customization script that runs after the initial bootup after upgrade(didn't want to have all the customizations, like their AOL client, etc.), I'm unable to dial contacts by name.
Is this something that can be changed in the registry? Or perhaps there's a CAB file that can be run that installs this feature? Please help me bring back the much-needed functionality.

you need to install a smartdialer, there is a link for one in my signature

Divert phone calls

Is there an easier way to divert phone calls tham as outlined in the handbook Start>Settings>Phone>Services>Call forwarding>get settings. I have to divert phone calls several times a day and this just seems so fiddly!
Sorry I don;t have more details, but I would imagine that there might be phone numbers to dial...depending on your carrier.
For example, *21*[dest]# to forward all calls to the "dest" phone number.
Assuming you forward to the same one or two numbers, you could setup shortcuts to dial that whole string (like Wisbar or vijay555 wonderful phone tools) and viola! your call is forwarded with a single press.
What kind of device do you have? I'm using O2 Plus and its divert profile feature is great. It's the fastest n easiest way. You should try O2 Plus (1.7 or 2.0 - both work well).
pocketMax phoneAlarm has divert profile feature also but it does not work on my device at all.
I've got an o2 mini s. Where do I get o2 plus from?
Click left mouse button on http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php then enter "O2 Plus".
I've already tried searching - nearly 5000 responses and I still can't find a mention of where to get O2 Plus. Please can anyone point me in the right direction?
Sorted it
For all calls press ** 21 * phone number *# SEND
To cancel press ##21# SEND
I've put these numbers into Speed Dial - all sorted.
Location of o2 plus version 2 download
o2 Plus adds lots of value and makes it real easy to do diverts, so if you still want it, you can download it here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/vie...days=0&postorder=asc&highlight=o2plus&start=0
I particularly like the schedule feature, so you can have timed diversions.
Make sure you download the cracked version which is in a message about 2/3 of the way down the first page of this forum
excellent App...
i was looking for something to add operator name... and o2 plus does that and more....
Can't install
I've downloaded it but I don't seem able to install it. I can load the main program but can't load the patch - there's not setup program!
the patch is a cab, just copy it to your device and tap to run... after it installs it will prompt you to restart.
A bit more help
Please can someone give me step by step instructions as to how I can install this program. I unzip it and it goes into 2 files. I unzip the main program and copy that onto my mini s then run the setup. Soft reset and copy the zipped patch file across and run it, it installs and I do a soft reset.
Nothing is appearing on the screen.
What am I doing wrong?
All sorted
After many various atempts it's all sorted. Brilliant program.

Calling Card dialing

Has anyone found a utility or a way to automatically dial numbers using a calling card? This is a rather convenient feature in my previous (non-WM5) cell phone that allowed me to import my corporate phone numbers and then use automatic calling card to dial them without editing hundreds of entries in the phone book.
I have noticed the "Callingcard" code sample at MSDN, however, there does not seem to be a compiled binary available anywhere and I do not have the development environment available.
Any help or tips appreciated.
Ihave been using this one
It is one of the importat things for me
so I use Program called "Long Distance Dialer (Pocket PC Phone) 1.3"
it works on WM2003, WM2003SE and I am runing it right now on WM2005
http://www.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=12595
good luck

Thanks! I did not realize it even runs on WM5. However, it does not see to go past dialing the access number - goes to reorder / busy tone right after. Is there a trick / fix to it?
I am using it on HTC Wizard
I never had that kind of problem
I don't know how to help you
This is my settings
Name: My card name
Acces#: my number (only numeric )
Dial Seq : PIN/Destination
Wait: 1Sec Pin : My pin
Wait 1 Sec Destination
then I go to Contacts I right click on the name I want to dial , it gives me optioon >> Dial using : then Name of my calling card .
When I click on that it gives me list of the phone numbers unther that name .
Since I call from USA I do need to select option << Add 011 before number >> but I do not do it because I added 011 to all phone numbers that I call with the card , in the Contacts
I hope this will help.
Good luck

I installed Long Distance Dialer 1.5 on my PPC. I like it so much that I want to register ($4.99). However 1.5 cannot be purchased anywhere anymore. Did anyone manage to purchase a registration key for 1.5? Or alternatively are 1.3 registration keys inter-changeable with 1.5?
This seems like a great piece of software, but it won't seem to accept pins less than 4 numbers. I have all my number listed with the country code first, so I need to add 00 to call them. In the past, I've configured my calling card feature to use 00 as the pin, which works great, but I can't get this to do it and I don't want to manually add 00 to all my numbers!
Many thanks for any help,
Paul
The link is to version 1.3. What you need is version 1.5. A quick Google will give you two or three sources.
1.5 has no limitations, but has an annoying trial notice pop-up each time you use it. Where can I purchase a registration key?
Thanks for the reply. I've downloaded v1.5, but it still won't let me enter a pin of less than 4 digits. Any thoughts?
Many thanks,
Paul
Solved the problem. In v1.5 you can put spaces as well, so, even though it needs at least 4 characters, I can put two spaces and then the two zeros.
Best,
P
Interesting - I was trying to solve my problem with the software dialing only the calling card access number. I defined an address book entry with the whole number with pauses - and still only the access number gets dialed. The card I use follows the "Number followed by PIN" model with a second dial tone after you dial the access number and a third one after the called number. Any ideas what could be causing the issue? Could it be that the Wizard does not recognize that the call has been completed after it dials the access number?
free and the best calling card dialing software
this is reply to betstu2004 request i.e compiled binary from msdn betstu2004 mentioned about
its in cab format and is attached for downloading.
here is the procedure for installing and using it:
1)copy the cab file in ppc and install it
2)then using any registry editor we have to edit the values of number to be dialled and the pin number of the calling card,to do that
open registry editor
go to:
hkey_current_user
then software
then microsoft
then calling card
in this option you have to edit two entries
1st is Number which is your calling card number
2nd is Pin which is your pin number
save the changes
then to use the software
go to contacts
then
with stylus touch and hold the contact(international) you want to dial
you will see an option
call mobile using calling card
click it
and ppc will start dialling using calling card software with stored calling card number and pin
once the card is finished you can input the values of number if different from previous one and pin again
in some cases the new number and pin will only be saved in the registry after soft reseting the phone
you can even adjust the pause time which is 2 sec by default
this software is working perfectly on my xda exec and i hope you all will love it
cheers
My email to the author (VSOFTCODE) of LDD bounced. Looks like I will have to remove it after the trial expires.
Edit: I just managed to purchase a licence through Handango after all.
----->chaniana
Thanks works fine!!
chaniana - BIG thanks - it works flowlessly.
Now - if I could only get it to dial the number before the PIN!
reg key
Well I know this is not a warez site but
would it be wrong if I give out the reg code ??
I think not ,because the software no longer supported by the developer.
what you think ???
One more thing !!
I have Version 1.3 which I bought from www.pockeatgear.com
where did you find v1.5 ???
Let me know
DNO
this is cool....
chaniana , i have been looking for something like this for a while... i have 2003 not 2005 to be able to complie or change this...
I am just migrating form treo 650 and am missing a program TakePhone. what it did it let me create rule
e.g. any number starting with a string it will use a calling card so i could set +44 use a calling card x
that way when i disl a number it will intercept the call an see the first few digits, if +44 it will dialthe calling card and wait for me to hit a button to enter a pin then eait for another button to dial the number, all in a few strokes i was dialing international and never had to change my contacts. when i was there in UK all i do is disabke the rule and voila i am in business...
see if u can do this
i did something similar in VS2003 creating from scratch an app that would list the contacts and i enter a ph and pin in 2 seperate textboxes and hit dial, got it to make a call to the 1800# but could not figure out how to dial the rest automatically so i am stuck
Long Distance Dialer 1.5 at handango.com.
Just pay the 5 bucks, it may inspire others to create affordable useful software!
This software doesn't work with PocketInformant. Any solution ?
I installed Long Distance Dialer 1.5 (Trial), entered Calling card (access#, PIN)
I can see new menu item when I right click "contact", but when I select "Dial CCard" NOTHING happe! No call started.
I'm using Wizard.

VoiceMail shortcut

Hi.
I've been happily playing and customizing my TyTN and everything was going very smoothly until today. So, I was wondering if someone might know what the hell is going on.
Everything was working fine today in the morning. I have checked my voice mail as usual using the shortcut that gets automatically enabled in speed dial under number 1. Since then, I have installed Handmark Pocket Express, which also installed MS .NET CF 2.0 and then when I went to speed dial Voice Mail was no longer there. And I cannot create a shortcut for that number at all. It does not give me an option to use number 1. Soft Reset did not help. Installing a different SIM from my wife's phone did not help either. Before I start uninstalling and Hard Reseting, I was wondering if anyone else seen this issue before.

Any help will be appreciated.
bumping this up
Hi,
Go to phone ==> speed dial ==> long tap on the number 1 (first top) ==> modify, then screen phone, select fifth line "voicemail and SMS" and tap display parameters ==> then, on the voicemail screen key into the voicemail box your number to call your voicemail. After going back to the speed dial screen your voicemail should be recorded.

Missing Voicemail Speeddial
I have a similar problem, but in my case not only is the speed dial for voicemail missing, but there's no number one on the speed dial screen. When I try to create a new speed dial, the numbers that are listed as either available or already assigned begin at 2. There's no "1" on the speed dial screen so I can't use your solution, and I've created a new speed dial for voicemail, but I've assigned it to 2. How can I make speed dial 1 visible?

Editing Phone settings in Touch IT 4.5

I've recently installed Itje'e Touch IT 4.5 ROM and been stuck with this problem. When prompted for my voicemail number (Orange UK) I mis-typed a digit and am now left with speed dial number 1 with the wrong number within. You should be able to edit within Phone settings but for some reason this ROM does not allow certain fields to be edited - speed dials being one of these.
Can anyone assist with an alternative method or registry tweak for this problem?

How can I use a custom phone app instead of default WM6 phone app?

Hi,
I am working on a custom phone dialer app. Here is what we expect:
When opening the contacts or the call history and clicking one call phone number, the default WM6 phone app would not be invoked and popped up, instead our phone app would be shown. And the selected phone number would be caught;
1). When clicking a number in Contacts list or CallLog, how do I stop the default behavior---starting the default WM6 phone dialer app--- and launch the custom phone dialer app we provide?
2). Since the number clicked is not a hard key, how can I catch the event and pass it to the custom phone app?
Really appreciate any helps,
Mike J.
you can't override windows and replace files in it, the best you can hope for (ask HTC and Samsung) is to either skin or create with windows. In your case you're trying to create a dialer that will basically hide most functions already build into windows (contacts, missed calls, etc) I think what you want to do is build the entire program yourself from scratch...link it how you want then tag it with green button so that instead of the default dialer opening your program (dialer with your own customizable setup) will open. I believe that is the easiest solution. Out of curiousity, what exactly are the current dialers lacking that makes you want to create your own dialer? Eitherwaygood luck with your project
