Hi,
I want to develop the following app:
I have two mobiles with Windows. One for business and one private. When somebody calls on my business phone (which I leave at home) I want to divert them to the voicemail (maybe after one ring) so they can leave a message. At the same time I want this mobile to send a SMS to my private phone with the number of the caller (caller-id?). So I can phone them back after listening to the voicemail.
Can anybody direct me in the right direction to develop this? Is it possible to develop this?
If you have VStudio with WM5 SDK, I think it won't be difficult (I think. I dont have WM5 SDK, as I'm cheapo and using evc). There is this thing call.. State and Notification Broker thing that WM5 has which check on the state of the phone and do something about it. Probably a good place to start.
a software MagiCall ..has such feature..not sure if its sms includes the callers number..but custom sms can be set when incoming call comes..
google for MagiCall

Dears,
I was searching all over the net about an application to deal with SMS issues, but did not find any, then thought if it would be a good idea to develop it. I am not a programmer, so thought to share the idea with you here.
Here are my thoughts; which is developing one application to do the following:
1- Every time you receive an SMS confirmation (that your SMS was received by the other party), his phone number appears (not his name) while it is stored in your Imate. The problem is that some times you send the same message to a lot of friends (at the same time), then u start receiving SMS confirmations but you do not know who did not yet received it! Some time due to their mobile was off or out of signal. It would be nice to have a program that dispayes the Contact name instead of the mobile number when you receive the SMS from the operator!
2- Same problem!! when you divert your mobile to the Service Center (to pretend it is turned off), people calls you and find your mobile is off. But you usually receive SMS notification about those who call you in this time (I do not know what this service is called??)!
Any way, when you receive SMS from the service center, it display the mobile numbers not the Contact name! Again the idea is to develop a software to display the Contact name instead of the mobile number.
Please let me know if the idea is not clear, and I got other ideas to add up to this application or other applications.
Hi,
I need to develope an application that basically replaces the caller ID screen that pops up when you have an incoming call and show some more information on the caller, then let the user answer or decline the call.
any help on where to look first (or maybe code snipets if i'm lucky) highly appreciated.
Cheers,
Shafa
I think you may have a hard time if it is truly a seperate application you wish to write. I have written a program to try to be used at the same time as cprog.exe and when that incoming call window comes up nothing I have tryed will let the user interact with any windows I create. You could stop that process but most users will not want to do this. I ended up having my program automatically determine if it wants to accept the incoming call and answer it itself. This was particularly anoying because my incoming call interest was set to data only and cprog dose not normally even register an incoming call that is purly data. But after I had initialized tapi with my settings cproc unexpectedly shared the same interest for incoming data calls.
Just as speculation - if your program was constantly running, when an incoming call is offering, you could enumerate the desktop windows using EnumWindows and its associated callback function to get the hwnd of the ballon that comes up. Then perhaps you could close the incoming call window or send it to the bottom of the z order and use your own to replace it. I do not know what effect this would have on cprog.
code related to tapi tends to be long so your not that lucky
:lol:
I am looking for an app that lets me do stuff when certain incoming numbers (either a simple editable list or a selection of contacts) call..... essentially I want the phone to answer and then hang up immediately so the numbers don't get my voicemail, they just get rejected.
At the moment I have the contacts set with a silent ringtone so I don't get disturbed, but sometimes I get voicemails from them and I want to prevent these.
I have had a look at Mortscript and can find how to handle incoming calls, just not how to handle incoming calls from specific contacts in specific ways.
Any help appreciated
go to www.youmail.com
i like this free service and it handles caller id calls more efficiantly than any software you can purchase.
Thanks for the link, unfortunately it's US only and I'm in the UK.
CallFirewall does exactly that what you need.
Try this:
http://www.mobiion.com/magicall.html
It does everything you asked, and a whole lot more.
+1 for magicall... it rocks
Thanks for the links guys, downloading them both now
Call Firewall didn't quite do the trick as I could only get it to go to voicemail, but Magicall does 100% what I want, plus more, so I promptly coughed up the cash for it
Somewhere else on the forum there's a program what lets you make your own interface in html with js/flash. you can use that and make javascript countdown for x seconds and than let it pick up and hang up... or whatever you want not the best solution but it still is a solution
Does anyone know how to get this to work?
It can be found in Start - Settings - Phone - Advanced Tab
Mine is ticked but doesn't seem to do anything when I choose Ignore to an incoming call (i.e. the caller is not sent a text message saying the above)
Any ideas
I have wondered about this for a long time, but haven't come up with anything to make it work, sorry.
I usually disable it sooner or later, just in case.

I have unlimited text messages so charges isn't an issue for me.
All I can find is the option to send a text message when a call comes through, but nothing to automatically send a text message on an ignored call.
Hm, I think it's like this. Someone is calling you and if you wan't to ignore/reject the call, put your phone upside down on a table(with screen to the table), the call will be automatically ignored and I think THEN the message will be sent try it, not sure
I think, I have figured it out.
On an incoming call, you have the option to click on "Send text" in the lower left corner. The call is then rejected and you can compose an SMS to send to the caller.
I use an app called SMS Minder to do this myself, and I'm quite pleased with the results. You can have it respond to all missed calls/texts (select BLACKLIST & leave the field blank) or only to missed calls from certain numbers (select WHITELIST & add the numbers you want to respond to).
I've been using it for several months and it makes my work so much easier. I'm a cabdriver, and when a call comes in & doesn't get answered for whatever reason SMS Minder sends a message that says "I can't talk now, please text me".
For the longest time I didn't really trust Texting that much, but it's become an integral part of my work now. So much easier to read&reply to an SMS (10 to 15 seconds tops) than it is to dial voicemail, listen through the prompts & recital of the phonenumber, then listen to the message...and finally after all of THAT is done, then return the person's call. Texting is just that much easier.
Especially if I use a program like this to automate my responses...and a program on my desktop to send other text messages just like they were an email (it's got an interface similar to Outlook). I plug the phone into the computer & tuck it away...then any interaction I have with the phone is done by using Jeyo Mobile Companion (SMS interface with additional cool features) and/or MyMobiler (fully manipulable screen-shot of the phone's screen) on my desktop.
Of all the apps I've tried and/or discarded, these three have become almost indispensable to my work.

Posted Android app on non Android forum by mistake. Sorry!
i believe, given the age of this thread, that it is about the native windows mobile feature to reject calls with an sms and there was no need to bump the thread with an app for another operating system. also, on android, depending on your phone and rom, this feature might also be pre-installed and available from stock, w/o the need for a 3rd party app.
Does anyone know how to forward call or divert call to another number?

Call forward through a PBX
Hello Everybody,
As a profane developer , I am trying the following on my htc T5353.
I have a central pbx at the office and I would like a software that when running, makes all calls going through the central in this way: I call a number, then I receive a tone, then I send the real number I want to call.
I don’t know how to “intercept” an outgoing call so to make it going through my routine.
Alternatively, I could split in two the green button (“TALK”) in the default call program and use one for standard calls and the other for calls going through my routine.
However, I don’t know how to modify the standard call-program.
Thanks a lot in advance for your help.

Def.ly google voice, you can't go wrong....
Googlevoice and include "googlevoice callback free".
If you need to retain your current phone numbers then you may need to configure free accounts with tricky configurations at:
Pbxes.com
It is intricate, but to get really fancy, you may include:
Sipdroid app, with ipkall.com, smsdiscount.org.
You really want to change your main usage to google voice, though..
