Ok... I think i need some help here. I wrote an app that would screen save and trap all the keys (even the red and green phone keys). I did this according to the following post.
http://www.xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3665
Then i wrote some tapi stuff to listen for an incoming call and restart cprog.exe after the first ring. Only problem is, cprog.exe seems to need the LINEDEVSTATE_NUMCALLS (0x0800) notification or it will not log the call as missed. It can never get that notification, cause that is the first thing i can trigger off of. So... cprog.exe does not log the call as missed. If i answer the call, then it is logged...
I was hoping i could do one of the following:
1. Write the missed call to the log myself.
2. find a way to trap the keys without killing cprog.exe
3. Fake a LINEDEVSTATE_NUMCALLS (0x0800) dev state change message to cprog.exe
or worse case (which i don't like at all)
4. Keep my own call log which means i will have to write my own call log app.
or even worse still...
5. Just be happy with the screen saved, but the keys unlocked and hope that i don't make 3 hour "prank" calls of me singing along in the car to the radio on some friend's voice mail.
Any help here would be greatly appreciated. Also, if anyone needs to see the code that i used to detect the ringing and stuff... let me know... i can post it up.
thanks,
John
Being as you know you missed the call, you could just put the relevant information into the call log database.
Thanks... i didn't realize that existed, but i figured something was there like that.
Unfortunately for this app... but fortunately for everything else, i upgraded to WM2003... so now, i don't need this as much because the now the GPRS stays connected even in suspend mode (which locks the keys).
It also seems that 2003 behaves differently with respect to screen power. It seems 2003 automatically turns screen power back on in the event of a window focus change... so my app needs to be rethought now.
thanks for the help,
John
Hi John
Did you ever find how to add/insert your call into the log?
It seems that ther is no API to do it (there is an API to query the log...).
Any thoughts?
Hi,
Every now and then when I try to send an SMS from my XDA2 I press the send button in the top left corner and all that happens is that the cursor jumps to the end of the "to" field. Nothing else?
In order to be able to send an SMS once in this stat I have to turn off and turn back on the phone part and then everything works fine. It's only infrequently but when it happens it's quite annying.
This is my second XDA2 and both were running the 1.60.00WWE Rom with 1.10.00 Radio and both suffered from the problem.
Has anybody got any ideas?
Thanks,

@ads_green,
although I can´t help you out here, I still can confirm that bug on my machine
My machine:
Vodafone Personal Assistant (Qtek 2020)
ROM-Version 1.66.01GER
ROM-Date 02/23/04
Radio-Version 1.10.00
Protokoll-Version 1337.18
ExtRom-Version 1.66.143
Software installed:
Adobe Acrobat
Funny Snake TKCreater
Mobile-Banking
PocktZenPhone
PocketWeather
Total Commander
WisBar Advanced
VITO Voice Dialer
I see that we both use the same radio version.
Anybody else can confirm that bug ?

SMS problem
I can confirm the same problem you have but I noticed the following:
When I turn on the phone from a soft reset and after entering the
PIN for the telco network, the "G" icon (GPRS) briefly pops up
and beep sound is heard. This is normal
Occasionally this "G" icon comes up again and beep is heard for no reason.
When this happen, then I cannot send SMS like you mentioned.
Receiving SMS is OK. Making and receiving calls is OK also.
Also at this time
START--->SETTINGS---->PHONE cannot be accessed.
Nothing happens when clicked.
The only way to get out is to SOFT RESET.
However one time I tried to investigate further and check the processes
and applications, open/closing other software, etc. the system
went into a HARD REST automatically.
I suspect the problem is due to the phone settings software part.
It could also be a SIM card problem or a loose contact with SIM card.
I also have the same ROM.
Anyone has any ideas?
I have the exact same problem recently and that 'G' icon keeps appearing, i find that if i turn my phone onto Flight mode then back to normal, it resolves this for a while but doesnt stop it happening!
hello! i've searched but didnt find any help with my problem. When my jasjar rings (incomming call) and after i press the answer button (the green one) i need to wait about 1 to 2 seconds before i can hear the person that is calling me...strange...did this ever happen to you? how can i solve this problem? Thanks in Advance
Yes, i have the same problem on my MDA Pro
After pressing the green button, i have to wait 3 secounds with speaking.
I had the same problem and now is solved.
In phone/options/band select WCDMA (not automatic)
i think that didnt solve the problem...sorry...thanks
I have the same probelm on the incoming call. However, i finally realized that it's the problem on the Pocket Plus V3.0.4 installed on the system.
It appear to be normal once i removed the program.
It's the case for me, and i hope it would help you as well
I too have this problem with my I-Mate Jasjar. I need to wait for a few seconds after hitting the answer button before I can hear the calling party. I did a hard reset and installed the latest wwe ROM available on clubimate site. The problem still persists even without any third party software installed. So I do not blame pocketplus for this problem. I think this is a software/hardware issue which should be addressed in a ROM upgrade.
I have the same problem with my JasJar. I have also updated to the lates ROM from clubImate by advice from clubImate support.
Sometimes the phone does not even answer the call at all when pressing the green button. This is becoming an even more expensive phone since I have to call back so many people on account of missed calls
Seriously, It cannot be right that a problem like this exists on a phone in this price range. ClubImate support even said they had never heard of this problem before.
i did a few hard resets and the problem persists without any extra software installed. "Very bad bug". i've already test a K-jam and it works beautifull...i'm sad
Got my XDA Exec today. It's pretty good but is not the same as my XDA2. Even less phone. More PDA...
If I turn my machine off in landscape mode and then close the lid with the screen out (like the XDA2) then when a call arrives it takes ages to answer because the screen has to rotate first to portrait mode.
If I turn off and close in laptop mode (landscape) then it rings immediately and I can answer it immediately using the hinge buttons.
Maybe it is the same for you?
i have noticed it seems to be quicker to goto portrait than to landscape in all respects of use
ok, lets try it...thanks
how i test it: jasjar "on" charging, open in portait mode. same delay.
L to P is roughly twice as long for me.
going to L i get twist and flip and the display is done ready and waiting
going to P i get twist and flip then get a 2s ish of L before it flips to P
this was battery power
*** its the same on mains and battery !

When my Exec is on, the rotation is pretty much instant. I have no apps running. It's only when a phone call wakes it up that the rotation is slooooow.
My Qtek 9100 also take app. 5 sec before it rings, and the S100 I had before was the same. My dad has an XDA mini, same problem. It seems like pocket plus will increase the problem, but even without any extra software its not working perfect. Its strange after such long time, they havent been able to solve simple problems like theese.
I also get this, Its very annying. Maybe they incorperated it so you can answer the call asap and the before it acually picks up, you have a few seconds to turn the screen round and see whos calling ect?
I have an Exec and there is certainly a knack to answering a call on it, but i'm getting better!!!
Firstly the voicemail seems to kick in way too early, i only get 4 rings of the 'ring' ringtone max before the VM kicks in, sometimes i think it is less, but i may just be going deaf! does anyone else find this a problem?(not deafness)
As i usually have the exec closed in my pocket, this is how i answer a call.
1, Hear the first ring, if i don't it's too late already!
2, Drop everything, and remove phone(ha!) from case and open into laptop mode only. If i rotate all the way into PDA mode the screen takes too long to change and the call goes to VM before i can see who it is.
3, Answer call after seeing who it is
4, Rotate or close screen and put to my ear and wait 2 seconds to speak.
It's a real pain in the arse and very annoying.
Great forum btw, it's been very helpful, i knew bugger all about PDAs three weeks ago.
Ian
Which button(s) do you have success with?
The small green on the side,
the green above the other keys on the keyboard,
the soft key button,
or touching the screen?

If you're using the Exec on o2, you can adjust the cut-in delay at the o2 end. You do so by keying in/sending the following to o2:
**61*901*11*xx# [send]
(where xx is number of seconds, e.g. 30.)
Note: I think the maximum delay allowed is about 30-secs - at least I've never got it to extend longer than that!
I have found that o2 occasionally reset mine back to about 10-secs, so have it programmed into a contact number.

I've found something interesting.
I tried to swap two sim cards.
<boring>
The one originally in my phone was a sim card from Orange Denmark (where I live). Orange has since been bought by Telia, and this same sim card is now using Telias network. This is by design. It gives my the roaming symbol all the time since the buy-over.
To say the least, some things have been very ****ty in this process, so I thougt that I might try another sim card.
</boring>
I had another one from TDC (another danish operator), and bang! My Universal (Jasjar) answers instantly - every time - on all the buttons!
Could some of you who have this problem as well, please confirm this? Please tell what kind of sim card (and country) you are networking through, and try another one.
i just put on the latest TNT wm6 rom on my 8125 and i am not able to send message, it sayings phone is not ready wait 15 seconds. Also i don't get calls, and i know this because people of told me they called me but i never got the calls. Also when i call some one with my phone and i want to hang up it wont let me the end button dose not end the call or nor dose the end button on the screen. and also the hold button dose not work. I have also tryed many other wm6 roms but i get the same problem. And my phone is a G3 with radio 2.17 or some thing, i also applied the fix for my carrier (AT&T).
When I get an incoming call the answer screen apears and I can select accept or ignore but when I slide the button to the accept side the screen locks and I can't hear the person on the other end. After a few seconds, presumably when they hang up, the call ends adn the phone unfreezes.
This has been getting wrose for about a month now until it is at the point where it happens almost 100% of the time. I have not installed anything new in the past two months and my memory (running and storage) is about 50% free so I don't think that is an issue. I am running Duttys V3.2 XT WWE rom. Any ideas?
I have a similar problem, but I'm using the mobile with XAndroid...
(My phone doesn't unfreeze)
