Is there a macro that would redirect all calls to a certain telephone number?
I have an in built car phone with its own SIM and it would be a lot more convenient if i could forward calls to the car with one button press rather than the normal method.
Thanks

I see three options:
1) Install PhoneAlarm and set up two profiles. I one profile forwarding is enabled, in the other it is not. By switching between the profiles you switch forwarding with one button.
2) You can setup a MortScript script sequence that does all the clicks and taps required to manually enable and disable the forwarding. Just as you would by doing it through the menu.
3) you can find out the forwarding code for your provider. That means you have to enter a dialing command with something like *123*<number to forward to>*# and send it. I do not know for sure what commands are used or if they differ from provider to provider. Check your manual or contact customer service. Once you have this command sequence you can use Vijay's Phonetools to generate a shortcut that automatically does the dialing/sending part with this command.
Just got my new Orange M3100 (Tytn) and I'm having problems with trying to forward incoming calls to another number. I have to divert and cancel divert often during the the working day and could do with a short cut to the settings call forwarding page. I don't seem to be able to make one... Could anyone advise...
Also trying to do similar with Bluetooth settings as I swap my BTheadset between phones just as frequently. I have found a link on this site to a utility to do that but not had chance to try it yet...
Can I just make a shortcut to that as well ??
Apart from that it appears a excellent device, running Tomtom etc without any problems....
Thanks in advance Phil
All the ways I tried to create such a shortcut do not work, because it requires an USSD "call". I asked WM5NewMenu author to implement USSD handling, will see...
For now the best solution I've found is to assigh speed dial keys in the dialer to USSD sequencies to divert and cancel diverts. It's OK for a while because speed dial keys can be easily accessed with one hand only (green phone button, then arrow left or down).
EDIT: In case you don't know USSD sequences... You'd better consult your operator to be sure. For me:
Divert all calls: **21*number_to_divert_to#
Cancel divert of all calls: ##21#
There are also codes for conditional diverting, of course.
Hi Phil,
What Lurker0 has mentioned is a good idea. You can save those strings as a number in a contact and maybe assign a speed dial or voice tag to that contact for speed? I guess one contact to enable and another to disable. The commands Lurker0 mentions are standard over all networks.
I'm not sure if there are ways to send AT commands to the modem in the TyTN (M3100) but it is another possible way to do it if someone knows how, if not then it might be useful info to someone else.
The AT command you need to send is AT+CCFC=1,1,<number>,128,1,,, this is the number in local format (no +44) like 07968xxxxxx to enable and AT+CCFC=1,0 to disable.

Phonealarm may be a simpler solution as I think u can add a forward number within a profile so just switching profile from the Today screen (phonealarm skin) would do the trick...
www.pocketmax.net
I've not had any dealing with the ATM commands so to be honest I wouldn't know were to start. I've just tried to install Phone alarm in my Orange SVP
M3100 but after asking me if I need and extra language the software just locks up.. Soft restart then required....
I managed to find the directory that it was installed in, the setup prog is there but I can't find the executable file, I guess that it has not got that far !!!!
Any help please...Phil
I'd suggest to try USSD codes as the easiest and 100% working solution.
Tried the ussd numbers in the contacts list.... works very well both divert and cancel divert... Just need to setup the speed dial now, were is that manual !!
Thanks again.

Hi Phil,
Go into the phone skin (green button) > Menu > Speed Dial...
That's you...
Gav.
Speed Dial is also at "green phone button" then arrow left, or arrow down, or wheel down. So one hand operation is possible.
Many thanks to you both... Nice to find helpfull people on here... Phil

Phil,
I do the same and installed the O2Plus (and patch) software which tweaks the today screen and gives direct access to mutiple profiles for different forwarding options - works really slickly.
Check this forum for the .cab files
Hope that helps.

i tried putting the codes in a speed dial but Tytn unhelpfully said i had to enter the sequences in from the phone pad directly. all i did was put the **21*<no># in as a speed dial. did i miss something somewhere?
If you are rooted, start a shortcut to "Activities". Scroll down to "Phone", expand that, then scroll down to "Call forwarding". Select! Easy peasy.
Does anyone know of a good call usage monitor. I use to have Phone Dashboard but I can't add this to the HTC Homepage. The call timer in Windows Mobile only monitors all calls not just outgoing calls, as far as I can see. Any ideas

Ummm....have you checked under the call history button on the dialer? When you launch your dialer, click on the call history button. If its showing you all calls click on menu-->filter and select only outgoing calls. It should show you only outgoing calls now as well as durations for each. At least that's how it is on WM6....I don't know if they've changed if for 6.1
Nope. You can view only the duration of the calls when you open Call History and select specific person in it. Or through Contacts -> Click contact -> Menu -> View all calls.
It is very disappointing, because at least I want to know the duration of the last call. Doesn't matter if I end up the call or the other party. This dialer doesn't show last call time!
Thanks [email protected].
However, the Call History lists all the calls made or have come in via the filter. However, I want to know how many minutes a month I have used and unless I try and add all the outgoing message together, I'm stuck.
Under Call History there is a button called menu which gives the option "Call Timer" but if you click on this it gives you the total number of calls made since last hard reset (I assume) and the number of minutes used since last reset. Most people, I would think, with a contract want to know the number of outgoing minutes since last reset (with reset being since the last cut off date for calls on their contract). This appears to be missing. Can anyone help or know a program that does this that could be intergrated with the HTC homepage.

I'll second that, any way of\software for knowing how many minutes have been used in the monthly bundle?
Try Home Screen Plus
Have you guys tried Home Screen Plus? Its a great piece of software...and If I'm not mistaken it does have a feature to track call timers etc. Give it a shot. Its free Make sure you download the latest version. I know of a lot of other older versions floating around.
that is a real cool app but also a little heavy just for the calltimer. Anything with a small footprint out there?
Thanks Guys. However, I want to keep the HTC homescreen but I don't think you can add bolt ons to it, so any homescreen add-on won't work. I need a program that runs on its own that monitors the minutes and then being able to access it via the programs tab.
Found - LCMinutes
Not the easiest to configure, but once you grasp the concept it's a doddle (and elaborate).
LCMinutes :X
so i played around with LCMinutes and all it did was give me a headache! lol
i found this and wanted to share:
hxxp://www.hudsonmobile.com/products/phodash/index.html
is very very neat and a very easy to configure

I had heard it didn't work on the HD but if it does, how about sharing it on the wiki
Can anyone comment if this works with TF3D?
Call timer on Dutty´s Touch HD 2.1 is missing?
Hi there!
Anyone having problem with a missing call timer on Dutty's 2.1?
Or should I do a hard reset?
Thanks!
I am using phone dashboard which I find is very good and should suite your needs. Without Today screen it is a pain to use but still possible. Goto settings->Today then highlight the plugin and options. There is one tab which shows you the usage. But you have to "regenerate" the data before viewing.
Alternative, why dont you just run TouchFlo + Today screen (using TFD or SecondToday).
I know phoneAlarm also have a call duration tracking but phoneAlarm is just too much of hassle to configure.
Hi there,
Is there any call-forward management program for diamond?
Such that I can forward a phone call to office when I at office, or forward a call to home when I at home.
Sorry for my English as it is not my native language.
Thank You!
I think there is no such program. However, Microsoft creates an excellent tool in the Settings called Phone. Using that setting, you can easiy set forwarding number to your network in different scenarios such as Unavailable, Busy, etc.
I do agree that Phone setting is great for call diversion...
Yet every time when I need to divert call... (sorry that my OS is not English so the wording may not be exact)
Start - Setting - Phone - Service - Call divert - Get setting - enable diversion...
Any easier way to get the call divert done without memorizing the **0x*xxxx# ? Thanks
I see. Thank you very much!
And there is Call firewall. .. .it's nice and easy to use.
search for it ...
I spent a couple hours sorting through blog posts, downloads, cabs, blah blah blah... with the goal of getting my forsaken Treo Pro (WM6) to use VOIP through my office's SIP/Asterisk setup.
To save you all some headaches, here's the distilled version of what I found to be the best combination of software and quick hints for install:
I started with this blog post, to give credit..
http://voipguides.blogspot.com/2008/05/voip-sip-client-for-windows-mobile-6.html
But I used different software... so I've included a zip with the package of all the stuff I installed to make the damn thing work.
1) Install all of these:
- voipdrivers.cab
- custelvoip.cab (works better than MajikVOIP.cab)
- sipconfig.cab (originally named SipConfigTool_2_0_1.CAB)
- audioroute.cab (from http://www.teksoftco.com/index.php?section=freeware)
I've also included setupvoip.cab .. which is a fancier SIP setup tool, and may work better than sipconfig... but I used sipconfig originally, so that's what I'm writing up here.
2) Restart your phone
3) Run sipconfig ... enter all of your sip configuration details, and also use the menu option to enable VOIP over 3G if you desire it.
4)Now go start -> settings -> personal -> Phone. Choose ther Internet Calling tab. Set the option for "whenever available".
5)On the main/Today screen you will see a phone icon with description VOIP ( you entered name of provider VOIP in (step 4). It'll show you the status of whether or not it has registered with SIP. A Hint, you might need to trick the phone into connecting to 3G first... e.g. by browsing the web... otherwise WM6 at least doesn't seem to auto-connect to 3G for SIP.
6) After connecting using 3G or wifi, You will see the status displayed as VOIP: Available.
7) You can now make calls as normal, or receive calls in.. and everything is routed through VOIP.
8) You'll notice that many WM phones will route the audio through the rear speaker (annoying) .. which is why you installed audio router from teksoft... it adds a little icon on your top system tray to let you change between earpiece and rear speaker for audio. There's a bunch of audio switchers out there. This is the best one by a mile. And it actually works.
Cheers,
Andrew Eross
Thanks for your effort. Similar tool is already posted as Schap - Setup voip Tool -

Thank you!!!
I've looked around for a guide as clear as yours. You've the best guide all around... Thank you a bunch...
Thanks for your great job. I new on Windows Mobile so I need a lot this kind of help.
I download and followed your installation procedure on a HTC 3G+, T3238 (chinese version of the HTC 3G, manufacturer HTY Taiwan)
Works well, Hope others also will be successfull
By the way, is there an also simple way to sending DTMF tones for remote control of my answering machine? When I try to send numeric keys after the call is connected it looks like I start a new connection with numbers actually for remote control of my answering machine.
Hi, I'm also in the club that has browsed hundreds of post looking for a setup of VOIP and also looking for a solution on good incoming sound level when using Voip on phone. Your files solved all my problems!
Phone: HTC HD2 Norwegian with Rom 1.66. Use the Norwegian company www.iplink.no for VOIP at home / office and (now) on my mobile phone.
Made my own ipdialplan.xml which can be found attached to this post.
Done some testing calling people through Voip: after approx 1 minute the connection falls down. I looks like I'm still connected to the other part (interface shows that a call is going on) but none of us can hear the other part. I then have to cancel the call in the phone interface. Make new call to same person, after approc minute the connection goes down again...
Is there some kind of registry setting that controls this "timeout"?
Hi, this tools does work also on windows mobile 6.5?
I know that on the HTC Fuze some of the wmvoip.cab installs breaks the GPS - anyone test this yet?
THanks!
does this work on hd2
I've done everything you said, but I can't find the option to show internet calling is available. I have Kumar 1.5 installed, and am about to try another ROM (maybe Laurentis, the SIP drivers are cooked in). What are you running?

Best Voip All in one solution. Try This
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=596682
I tried last night to no avail. I am guessing that using a WM6.5.x ROM stops me, because I can't access the right settings (start-settings-personal-home or phone) because my settings button takes me straight to the black screen of text version. I even tried to go to a 6.5 ROM (cooked with VOIP drivers in), and even then I couldn't get the VOIP phone icon to appear on the today screen. Every time I selected it from the Internet tab in the setting, it would just ignore my changes.
I would love to get this working with a nice cooked 6.5.x ROM, and am not giving up yet, but man is this frustrating. As a side note, I am learning lots about the workings of WM.

thanks for the reply. i have also installed i was able to receive incoming call but unable to make outgoing call. are you able to make outgoing call?
Okay, I feel like an idiot, but I figured out how to enable the internet calling tab on my HD2. I am still apparently learning lots about WM6.5. After I disabled Sense, I could add tabs to the today screen. I did everything right, but the voip tab just either says searching or not active. And it somehow disabled my data connection. Not sure anymore, almost through trying ROMs. Is everyone else running this on a stock ROM, or are there certain features that interfere with this?
VOIP almost working
I've implemented Internet Dialing and have SIP configured my my provider and I am able to receive calls. But, I notice that when I dial out a "9" is put in front of the number I'm dialing making it impossible to dial a number correctly. How can I change this?

You need to edit your ipdialplan.xml. It's in your windows directory. Basically it is set up by default to dial a 9 and in area code 425... If you look at it you should see where to edit it... There's also a utility knocking about here to set up a basic one for other countries...
Can't svae ipdialplan changes
I can open Total Commander find the file and make the changes to ipdialplan.xml by taking the "9" out of the 10 digit plan and the 7 digit plan, but I can't save the changes. I get "Error, could not create file" every time.
It's either open or write protected. Edit on the PC. Copy it over with a different extension. Rename the original, and then rename the new one to the right name.....
I have this very strange problem.
I have tried to install all this, but it works only partially.
Outgoing calls work and the receiving party can hear me. However, I don't hear them. Also, on incoming calls my phone doesn't respond at all.
Does anyone have any idea what is the problem?
I'm having a Topaz @ WM65.
