WM5 AKU 3.0 features info

FYI Mobile Review from Russia features a informative introduction to WM 5 AKU 3 (Tytn has 2.3). I hope this update will make it into a future Tytn ROM. Interesting improvements: A2DP update, vCards via SMS, support for WPA2, and enabling your provider to include language packs to choose from only once at initial startup of machine. BTW Does anybody know what is the advantange of sending SMS via GPRS? Free on a flat rate then?

Coming from experience with the BA, don't expect updates, we need gurus like Mamaich and Helmi to start working on the TyTN to help innovate it the way microsoft and others can't.
Try taking a look at the Blue Angel forums and you will notice the great advances they have contributed to make the Blue Angel a great competitor at an age of over 2 years old.

How do you send sms via GPRS? with Web & Walk flat rate of course

Any release date?

can someone clarify this...
if i am on the W&W from t-mobile does it mean that i can send sms' through gprs...
now here come the annoying newbie questions
How and whats the set up...
any help would it be appreciated
regards

The sending SMS via GPRS comment is regards the way WM5 handles vCards at the moment. Whilst Nokia, et al can all send a business card via SMS, i.e. the sensible way the Hermes can only send a vCard as an MMS, i.e. with significantly higher cost to most people. In the AKU 3.0 update you will be able to send vCards via SMS. Its only taken, what, four or five years for MS to acknowledge that people really do want to text busniness numbers to each other.

Caller ID Telus p4000

Hey Guys,
I have a weird question, i have a p4000 from telus in canada and i DONT have caller ID. Telus charges a ridiculous fee for it.
However when i go the caller id screen i can see the numbers of my calls for like 1/2 a second then it goes blank. This is enough that i can get my last call anyways.
Is there any way to completely unlock this via software that anyone knows??

My Telus bill is about $180/mo. (For my HTC Titan & my wife's RAZR V3c.)
...
*sob*

i think mine is 100 or so for the p4000 and the touch.

I agree on the price gouging. I stripped everything off my P4000 plan months ago. No data, no CID, no voicemail, everything except a 20$/month calling plan. I didn't do this because I don't need the features, quite the contrary. But it's my way of protesting the horrible monopoly we're stuck with in Canada. ****em, they're not getting access to my wallet until they match Sprint's unlimited data, unlimited text and 500 minutes for 30$ a month. [/END RANT]
Now, what do you mean by the "caller id screen"? Maybe there is way to hack it but I'm not sure what you're referring to.

I'm referring to the screen you get when you are at the phone screen and you press the button named: Call History
I couldn't find a shot of it in its default state but here is what it looks like if you have the contact photos addon:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

Any idea's??

herez the site i found this
http://the-gadgeteer.com/review/htc_universal_windows_mobile_5_pocket_pc_phone

im not gonna lie.. that's kinda ugly, but goodluck finding it

There was no need to start a new thread on this!
Check my skins thread, I'll let you search through there.

this is the original WM5 Dialpad skin...

am not looking for this but, i wish i cud find a dial pad where speed dial access is avalible like this one, insted of going through "menu" i looked at cuple of skins but none seems to look like this one, i have T-Mobile Wing phone with WM 6

do a search for smartdial. that will give you quick access to all your contacts. for example, if I want to dial my friend danielle, all i have to tap is 3, 2, 6 for the first 3 letters of her name, and it will filter down everything that does not start with a DEF, ABC, and MNO. the same would go for John only it would be 5, 6, 4, 6 if you want to spell the full name.
i am currently using the dialer from the HTC opal and it is the best i have ever used. i'm not sure if this has been released as a cab file to install on any device yet.

All I'm gonna say is that Mr. Incredible's dialpad is definitely incredible, for speed dialing.

Orb Phone Interface Concept - Incoming Call

Check out the Orb Lock Screen here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=487066
Here's what an incoming call would look like when you are using the Orb interface.
Of course, this is only a concept, and I need the help of some developers to make this happen, but anyways, look on at the pretty pictures:
So, your browsing the web when you get a phone call:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
That's what you'll see when the call first comes in. The upper right orb for the phone turns orange and then alternates with the following icon shown next:
That icon shows the picture of the person who's calling so that you can quickly tell who it is. If you want more options or to see their number, you can touch and drag the orb out to the center and it will come up with more options like ignore, txt back, etc.
So, those two phone icons keep on alternating until you pick up or your voicemail picks up.
If you decide to answer, you just click the phone icon there and your talk screen will show up:
The upper right orb for the phone stays illuminated orange to signify that you're currently in the phone section.
When you click End, you will be taken back to your previous screen, in this case the web browser, and your work isn't interrupted.
If you didn't want to pick up, you could just ignore the flashing and keep on working, or you could drag the phone orb to the center of the screen to get an option to ignore.
This is, of course, still a concept, so I need anyone that knows how to develop WinMo apps to help me if they can. It would be great to make this interface a reality since it would be easier to use than the current WinMo interface, and it could even be better than PointUI.
A video showing this phone answering system will be posted when I have some more time.
So please, if you can develop, or if you know someone, show them this page!
And remember to check out the Lock Screen also, if you havent: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=487066
Thanks, everyone,
Andrew

nice concept, i like it much! wish some1 manage to develop it.

LG H918 V20 has no video calling available

When I got my v20 I had the option to video call. But I've noticed lately that the video call button has been grey for a while now and I don't have the option anymore. I'm on VoLTE with wifi calling enabled. I'm also rooted stock with custom TWRP recovery. Anyone know what dependencies that video calling relies on

Thank you

Just wiped to a custom ROM and still no video calling....what is going on?...

My icon on the dialer is also greyed out (rooted stock rom T-Mobile), goin into my contacts allows me to video call people. Unfortunately going into the contacts is how I've always VC friends..so Im unsure what the greyed icon actually does.
Can you verify goin to a particular contact and hitting video still works like me?

Ok now that Im playing around with mine, my daughter who is sittin right next me on a J7 is greyed on my end and my wife who is here too on a S7e is green. Here is whats puzzling...My daughter can still VC me like normal and I can accept, but I cant VC her.
Can you have a party maybe initiate a VC to you?
Extra info: a few times the greyed icon still let me call to my daughter's J7
Even more info: I can regular call my daughter and switch to a VC midcall, even tho she is greyed out.
