Link works.
Nice 'challenge' I hope there isn't any hardware limitation. HTC ought to have these in their new products.

just repost the links directly into the thread so we can get the ball rolling faster. i love the backround noise option is hilarious but at the same time the most useful things ever LOL...just what i need when my GF calls and im not where i told her i would be.

Reposted inside, per request.

Okay here's my challenge to you...
I came across this link over at XDA:
http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=391825.
So I did a little Google'n to see where this phone was available...and of course it's not available to us telecommunication-ally challenged US folks.
So here's the company that sells them; but of course they're in Dubai:
http://www.iteqonline.com/en_index.asp
After some more research I found the new updated ROM for this phone, and so I proceeded to unpack it so I could find the applications I wanted.
So--my challenge to you is who can provide for us the following applications from this ROM?
1. Answering Machine (Figure 7)
2. Background Effects (Figure 11)
3. Phone Recording (Figure 12) - granted I don't think this will work on the phone I want to try it on
4. Java Applet (Figure 27)
5. Voice Recorder (Figure 30)
6. Filter SIM and Send DTMF (Figure 20)
7. Magnifier (Figure 24 and 25)
All items should be in their own respective cab files for easy install for anyone who wishes to use it.
Thanks and Good Luck!
You can download the dumped rom from here
You'll need 7-Zip to unzip the archive. 7-Zip is available at http://www.7-zip.org/

On the Answering Machine....
First the Wizard has a hardware limitation that prevents call recording unless you are using speakerphone. I would assume this would eliminate the Answering Machine ability.
Second, my assumption would be that it would be in the PhoneDialer App. So you would need to install their Phone.dll and the control panel applet for the settings.
Third, a registry dump would be useful to see any hooks to the AnswerMachine.dll.

Any thoughts on where to get the registry dumps?
I'll do some more Google'n

I would love to see someone rip out the answering machine. I think a lot of people woudl find this very useful...

I just took the java app (exe) out of the dump and dropped it in my storage card on my mda. it seems to start up fine. i dont have any jar files handy to try out. It shows an option to install them from either the storage card or "my documents". Im no tech wiz but it seems like someone who knows what they are doing could get all of these features, or maybe some of them from this to work on a wizard.

Due to the hardware design of the Wizard, WM5 has no access to the incoming audio stream. bluetooth routing is also done independent of the OS as I understand it. There simply is no way to 1) send audio out to the GSM Phone conntection or 2) record to other person.
The idea of an answering machine on your Wizard is a pipedream.

Previous post deleted.
Nice challenge, I'm interested in the answering machine.

I would be interested in the Cyberon Voice Commander which appears to add a lot of features to the relatively inferior voice speed dial we have. Also the Easy-Touch Menu would be nice, it adds the option of phone profiles and a few other handy items on one menu. It looks like it's a non resident program also so it would be handy for our performance challenged phones.
I don't have any experience with ROMS, otherwise I would attempt this myself. Is this possible?

Wow I am glad I didn't know this when I downloaded and installed PMRecorder. Although the calls are quiet (unless using speakerphone) they can still be heard. But I assure you they work. If we could get the answering machine to turn on the speakerphone automatically, we could even screen calls!
Maybe the answering machine is a new upgrade to Voice commander!

Volume Booster

Hello All,
I'm a newbie and I wanted to know if there is app any where like Volume Care that allows me to boost the sound of the device? I currently have a T-Mobile Wing.
Thx

Yeah i would like somethin like that to

Wow I'm surprised no one has tackled this one? Is it possible for me to develop something on my own? I have no programming skills but I would be willing to try it out.

yes..i'm interested also

Do you guys want this for the main speaker, handset's ear piece used during
calls or headphone output?

There are multiple threads running on this forum about boosting the volume using the registry. Did you check that out?
Maybe you should ask an admin if there could be a special section for the T-Mobile Wing (HTC Atlas). Keep in mind that a lot of tips and tweaks are already available for similar devices

I would like it for the main speaker personally. I don't think the volume of the handset's speaker is bad. More so I want to hear it when I have an incoming call but I don't think it would hurt to have something that controls all that can be adjusted.

WOW, the main speaker is TOO loud in my case. Maybe your settings are off.
Another fix is making your own ringtones and tailoring the sound for more high
end. I'm sure you noticed how TV commercials ALWAYS seem louder, well it's
how they choose the sound mix do get that "loudness". I make all my
ringtones and they're bloody loud.

Skype Sound output switch

I have made a program for my girlfriend wizard so she can talk with skype using the earpiece instead of the loudspeaker...
It might be useful for others too, use it at your own risk, I do not take responsibilities for any damage made by this program...
It also may work with other phones, it is a matter of trying... of course again, at your own risk.
It is very simple, just run the program before a skype call and then bring it up and press "ok" to close.
If someone knows tha if skype broadcast some sort of message while making a call, please send the information to me so I can make a auto-switching program ;-)
Do not let the program running because you can really mess things around, but nothing serious... just annoying.
standalone exe file, do not sell it!!! it is free!!
Thanks.
Check the new program, at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=469223

Thanks man, I don't need it at the moment, but it is great idea.

this is a fix that a lot of ppl have been waiting for but unfortunately it doesn't work on my tytn 2. is there any way that you can make a universal switch or one for the tytn 2?

can someone use this fix to auto-switch when wm6 voip call is comming in?

This is brilliant, brilliant!!!!
I suggest you repost this as VOIP: Audio redirection to earpierce and hopefully the mods can make this a sticky. This is a problem that has baffled many for long.
I've tested with both Express Talk and WM6 VOIP. However WM6 VOIP has got an issue on my phone where the volume is low with lots of noise. However in both cases,the app redirected the audio to the earpiece. Express talk is crystal clear through the earpiece and is what I'll be using for VOIP calls.
Would you care to elaborate on what issues we can expect if we leave the application running for long?

one small problem is after running this .exe, i am unable to key lock my device. so as i speak over the earpiece of skype i have the tendancy to press buttons (eg. hangup) with my face.

pmugabi:
you wont hear your phone ring at all if you leave the device running. all the sounds and notifications that come through the loudspeaker will all now come through the earpiece!

would vibrate still work?
To answer my own question, I tested it and it does! (Well I tested it on my Tilt and it worked)
My own problem now is finding a ROM that works with Skype and Troca2. The one I have now will not use the mic on the phone (whether troca2 is running or not). Either way I am making progress towards my Skype only wizard!

SKYPE and FRING on Sony Xperia X1
Have you managed to make this software automatic??
It may be a good idea if the software would work for FRING and SKYPE only without redirecting ALL the sounds.
Is it possible??
Best
Michael

I am having a issue with audio not coming out as mono on MP3 files will this work for that?

hello,
could you please make this run on WM2003 also ? i need this for my HTC magician.
thank you in advance...

Does it work on X1?

I think WM2003 is too old to run

Code ... maybe?
Hi MarceloFB,
This works great on my Xperia X1 (didn't try it with Skype, just my own VOIP app). ... Also have not tried it on my TytnII, don't even think I'm going to bother, since the TytnII hardware (as far as I know) won't support it.
I would, however, love to just put the API call into my own VOIP app instead of having the extra executable.
I have tried:
waveOutMessage( hWaveOut, /*MM_WOM_FORCESPEAKER*/WM_USER + 2, FALSE, 0 );
... as I thought that was the way to redirect the sound on devices where the hardware supports it, but that does not seem to work.
Would you maybe be willing to let me know what API calls you make in your app?
Regards
Hendrik

Hi ...
.... Nevermind ... got it working .... and on TytnII as well

Perfect
Works fine with Fring, Thanks, any idea why Skype 2.5 Beta crashes on Xperia when trying to make a call?

Works on Hermes
I've been testing express talk: http://www.nch.com.au/talk/index.html and your app reroutes the audio perfectly.
Where do I send beer? I would love a today plugin.

Is it possible to guide us how you changed your API to make it automatic ?
I don't know why nobody continued this thread. It is a big problem for all of WM users .
I have WM 6.1 and still the same problem . Damn Microsoft cannot fix this issue ?

Take a look at the first post, I have made a new program with automatic switch, and need people to test it and give some feedback, I intend to make corrections as bugs appears.

Call recording?

Hi,
Would it be possible to record calls on the HTC Leo? I know for HTC Touch HD it was possible ...

Its funny they copied exactly the same registry settings that I made a cab for *HERE* 8 months ago and put a pretty little interface on it

Can anyone please confirm that this phone can indeed record (clearly) both sides of a phone call and how it is done?

id like to know it as well, since i've been using it on previous HTC with pleasure. With the HD2 it only records our own voice.

If it only records own voice - it is useless, it's not just "doesn't work quite well", it doesn't work at all to better put it.
Could you please test it with the reg tweak and let us know if it made it work properly?

Even if the registry tweaks dont work on the stock rom, in my understanding they pretty much always work on a custom rom so once olipro has worked his magic and done HardSPL for the HD2 the custom roms should allow 2 way recording.

I believe most of the people participating in this thread already know the speculation, otherwise the question wouldn't need to be posted, but we are waiting for a first-hand confirmation that this is actually possible and how exactly it is achieved.

I've tried with Resco Audio Recorder.
I hear my voice very well but the voice og correspondent is lower. Forced to pump up the volume to listen afterwards.

Previous solution for recording calls - works perfectly for Touch Pro 2 (2-way clear recording).
I install it on my new HD 2 - 1 way recording (record microphone + speaker echo). I'm very upset about it... I thought my new HD 2 is totally perfect... Now I need solution (if only it is hardware possible). Wish it is possible. It is very usefull function for me!
Sorry my English

This seems to confirm that the registry tweak wont work on a stock rom with the HD2.
Im afraid everyone who finds this function useful will have to wait until HardSPL is done so that custom roms can start being flashed and then hopefully the registry fix will work.

You think it is SOFTWARE problem, not HARDWARE?

Yes I do. For years it was assumed that HTC products werent capable of recording incoming calls because of Hardware limitations but someone discovered that all it needed was 3 registry entries to enable incoming recording. I made it into a cab and brought it to XDA and now thousands of HTC devices can record both sides of a conversation. Unfortunately I also discovered from feedback of people trying the fix that it only seemed to work on cooked roms (pretty much any custom rom), which means in the process of cooking a rom some part of the rom is either modded or a file added that makes the registry entries work.
We did start doing tests and thought it was linked to the cprog.exe file but noone bothered to take it any further.

[TESTED 100% WORKING]Increase ALL of your X2's volume by 200%!!

This solution increases:
MICROPHONE VOLUME
IN-CALL VOLUME
SPEAKER VOLUME
RINGTONE VOLUME
MUSIC PLAYER VOLUME
and has been tested and working 100%
I've decided to share a ONCE-AND-FOR-ALL solution for all the X2 users and the general population of windows mobile users.
Here's the solution:
First, you need totalcommander. Google it.
1) Open TotalCommander
2) Go to ftp\\registry\HKCU
3) Change ALL the following to the value specified:
HKCU/Control Panel\Phone\vol\65535 (General volume of the X2 including microphone input!)
HKCU/ControlPanel/SoundCategories/InCall/Initvol\5
HKCU/ControlPanel/SoundCategories/Ring/5
HKCU/ControlPanel/SoundCategories/System/5
HKCU/ControlPanel/SoundCategories/Attentuation\All to 5
HKCU/ControlPanel/SoundCategories/InCall/InitVol\5
HKCU/ControlPanel/SoundCategories/Ring/InitVol\5
4) Soft-reset
5) Press the volume up key and set it to the 5th indicator (Max)
6) Press volume up key 1 more time, and you will hear an additional beep 200% louder and the indicator marker remains the same at the 5th marker on the top. This means you have sucessfully tweaked your volume!
6) Do step 5 again with in-call and congrats!
Enjoy your beloved X2 =)

I am satisfied with the default volume levels and will leave it as is.
Do note people, increasing output levels beyond the specified levels can damage your speakers!

sounds good. is it possible for someone to make a registry file of this? so we can just run it and it does it all for us noobs lol. (like the sd card fix)
although im not sure i need to increase the microphone input level, is it possible to leave that out.

Couldn't get totalcomander to work!!!! Which file did you download? It says if you have a touchscreen to download the pocket pc version...Did you download the installer or just the cab files? Thanks.

If your capable of making a cab file for this, trust me a lot of people will be happy and appreciate it.

You dont have to use totalcommander. Since it is a registry tweak, you can use a simple Registry Editor that you can download from Windows Marketplace for free

I've been dealing with low volume issue of WM since my O2 atom but not for my Samsung Valencia (c6625), so I just copied all samsung's ringtones and alarms from my valencia and use it in my X2, hahaha . they are sound nicer and louder! SE could have done much much better providing us lots of (nice and loud) ringtones just like samsung did.

i have found a program that increases your volume

Many Many Many thanks to HS_LuKa_ i want to tell that the application is perfect and sound is very loud and if u receive error when run it first time just restart the phone ,
thanks again HS_LuKa_
