Bluetooth-aware voice dialing?

Is there such a thing? I use the Fonix voice product, but it only works via the speaker or wired headset. Sure, it will transfer the call to the BT headset once it dials, but having to pick up the device and open the cover kind of makes voice dialing pointless.
On a similar note, a Bluetooth-aware caller ID application would sure be useful. Having it speak the name/number in the BT headset would mean hand-off answering based on caller. Or maybe even just speak it over the speaker on the device.

I've been wishing for those exact same things ever since the first Pocket PC Phone came out. Hopefully someday!!
In the meantime, feel free to send such feature requests to Microsoft repeatedly...

Using Skype ppc - setup?

I have Skype ppc on my mini, should I be able to call other skype users through the mini?....meaning talking through skype with the phones earpiece and mic.
I have tried to call someone but the sound (thier voice) comes through the speaker on the back of the phone and it seems they can't hear me
Is there a setting somewhere that perhaps I've missed :roll:
Thanks for any thoughts

Are there other programs people have successfully used the mini's mic and earpiece to talk with?

P3600 and Skype

Hi to everybody,
I'm using skype 2.2 beta on my p3600, everything is working fine but I have a question for you...
The incoming call voice come from the rear speaker instead of the front speaker like a normal phone call.
So I need to increase the volume to ear properly or use a headset.
It is possible to redirect the sound (incoming voice) from the rear speaker to the front speaker?
Thanks in advance
Gianni

Thats the same with mine, and as far as I know there isn't a work-around for this yet.

Hi,
I have the same "problem". I tried also the following VOIP programs: Fring, SJPhone, Expresstalk and Wengo. All of them use the rear speaker for the incoming call.
For this reason I used headset.
I hope someone is able to find a solution for the front speaker.

I Think it is possible to record voice calls through WM...

Hi
I've seen many threats about Answering machine, and Voice call recording.
I've understand that the Voice call "mechanism" does not work through the operating system, so the WM does not "aware" for that calls.
(If there is a solution for that, except speaker, I'm sorry for bothering you guys... I Haven't found one, please link me)
But
I've read threats that it is possible to use Bluetooth headset as microphone, and it is possible to hear music through it...
I Think that the OS can analyze the Bluetooth activity, and record voice calls through it.
What do you think?

[Q] Are there any SIP programs for the Snap?

There are programs for windows mobile but I can't find any for windows smartphone 6.5 . I'm also looking for stock quotes software... one that can use stocks from non US markets.

I managed to get incoming VoIP/SIP working with a native app but it was a bit messed up. Basically I installed this package: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=596682
and followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299950
I can't get outgoing to work, but incoming works.

Wow you got it working? Which device do you have? I tried with the HTC Maple (called Mobilicity Snap here) and could never get the audio to come through the earpiece.
Anyway, the two programs I've tried that DO work are AGEphone and fring.

On the Mobilicity HTC Snap I got it working, yes. The question was not about using the earpiece, it was about using the native VoIP client. In fact, I did manage to get the VoIP calls through the earpiece but it has a very bad negative effect: the ringer also goes through the earpiece after a few seconds, thus making the ring on incoming calls very quiet. In my opinion, it is much better to use the headset for VoIP calls as it provides excellent quality, no echo and no problems with the ringer.
The problem with outgoing calls is in the way WinMo's VoIP places the calls. They work with Voxalot but not PBXes. I am assuming everybody can just use Voxalot as a middleman between the HTC Snap and the voip provider if there are any problems with outgoing calls.

That's funny, as I could never get it working with the headset. Outgoing calls worked, but only over the speakerphone, while incoming calls had no audio at all. The mic didn't even work; I could press the keypad and get a DTMF tone, but that was it.
Could you tell me exactly which steps you took to get the audio to come out of the earpiece? I kind of gave up and am using fring, but it would be interesting to see how you did it.

Sorry, apparently I was wrong, even with the earpiece hack (I tried both of them) the most you can achieve is to get the ringer to go through the earpiece but once the call connects it goes back to the speaker.
The only solution is to use the headset. I tried for outgoing only and I am able to dial, send DTMF and speak, so the mic works well.
With the native client on the HTC Snap VoIP works only with headset. Overall, I have been using WinMo for about a week and I can say that I hate it more than any other OS I have used. I wish we could get Android to boot but seems like the CPU on the Snap is messing up the effort.
Fring is also garbage on WinMo. It often fails to connect and when it does connect the call quality (over WiFi) is much worse compared to Fring on S60 or iOS. It eats the battery like a monster, something that doesn't happen on S60. There is no way to change/silence the ringtone with Fring on WinMo and if a call comes over the GSM line while you are on a call with Fring your Fring call goes through the speaker, very embarrassing.
I got my Snap for 100$ from Mobilicity and I think the hardware is worth it, but Microsoft should be paying me for being stuck with their useless OS.
