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.
Being an alltel customer still in verizon's eyes means no access to verizon services such as Vcast tv, visual voicemail, vz navi, etc........who really cares. But I do need the visual voicemail. And fusionplus works great, tack 3.99/mo and you have voice-to-text. Very nice service.
Explain a little more about PhoneFusion. I have verizon visual voicemail and it seems ok but I was wondering how PhoneFusion works since you have to forward you number to their number then you getting charged minutes everytime you get a voicemail.
It does run on your normal minutes when you call in to check your voicemails. However, they are visible and you download them via data connection and then play in windows media player as mp3's so the there really is no need to use your voice minutes. You can manually download or set them to auto download. And of course the service is free. More info at http://www.fusionvoicemailplus.com/
how did you get it to forward it? when i did i called the *72 it makes it go straight to voicemail everytime, it doesnt ring on my end.

You first need to call verizon and have them set your conditional call forwarding number to 813-200-0200. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ALL YOUR MESSAGES DELETED BEFORE YOU CHANGE FROM VERIZON VOICEMAIL TO FUSION PLUS (or else you will not be able to get rid of the new voicemail notifications and it will drive you crazy like it did me). When you call verizon, speak only with tech support as customer service will say its not possible. After you do this go in to phone settings and on the first tab "phone" (start->settings->all settings->personal->phone) where it says "voicemail" change the number to 813-200-0200. This should automatically set your 1st speed dial to your new voicemail box. Good to go.

Here's a quote from the email they sent me:
To activate conditional call forwarding: Enter *7118132000200 as if it is a phone number that you are dialing and press "SEND".
To deactivate conditional call forwarding: Enter *73 as if it is a phone number that you are dialing and press "SEND".
*72 is Call Forwarding:

I tried this method three times and was unsuccessful until I called tech support and had them do it for me. Did this work for you?
how do you get 'sync' to work? I'm either putting in the wrong number/password combination or something else. New email comes in fine.

See post number 5.
Sweeny Russ, it has been about a week or so since you have had phonefusion running, how do you like it, Verizon's visual voicemail is handy but the app takes to long to load and I don't know if it is 2.99/month handy. Reading your posts it seems like it is a pain in the A$$ to setup if you have to call tech support. I wonder why doing the *71 + the number would not work?
Thanks

Thanks, but that didn't help me. I did figure it out though. When you add an account, use the Fusion Voicemail Login number they email you and the password they give you. Then sync will work. I had changed my password via their website and it wasn't working in the phone software. Must have needed a little more time to update.
Overall, it works good. I like it better than the Visual Voice Mail and I think the quality is better and its free. I didn't have to call VZW to get my cell to forward. It was very easy and straight forward.
However, I need to find away to be able to use the handset speaker to play the voicemails instead of using the speaker phone. It's getting a little annoying. I think the default is Microsoft media player. I can't find away for it to switch between handset and speaker. If anyone can help, I would appreciate it.
icon, did you do *71 + number or * 72 + number?

Thank for the reply. If I would of only read. My fault. I got it.
Morning all,
I am trying to get FusionPlus to sync when I hit the sync option. I have put my VZW phone number in there, along with my VZW vm password. Should I do the opposite and put the FusionPlus number and password?
Steve
I just entered my verizon number and the password. I clicked sync, I did not get any errors but it does not seem to have done anything.

That's what I was talking about above...
For syncing, put the Fusion Voicemail Login number they email you and the password they give you.
Hope that helps. I think they could have given a little more direction on that. I wasn't sure what number to put either.
I used my verizon phone number and the password phonefusion sent me.
I think fusion is perfect. I also found that it does not have to be open to notify you of new voicemails. It is very finger friendly and If you have bluetooth toggle you can list to your voicemail via bluetooth headset, the way I do it anyway, which is nice if you have messages you don't want anyone to be able to hear because it routes through the speaker. And if you delete a message but then need it later they save it for 14 days, unless your free mailbox is full. Also I can't see it using any visible resources, its footprint is very small compared to verizon visual voicemail.
Is there a way of showing the time of each call in the call history list?
..when you click on the call you have the duration!
Thanks for your reply, but it was the time of the call, not the duration, that I wanted - e.g. call received at 6:28pm. When I click on a call it simply re-dials the number

Instead of clicking on the call, click the contact card on the right side.
This will list all calls from that number with times.
When I click the contact card to the right of the call details it either:
- does nothing (if the number is in my address book), or
- asks me if I want to add the number to my contacts (if the number is not in my address book).
Is this behaviour configurable to get it to work the way you describe?
May be default config for WM6.5.
I assume you're on WM6.1?
I tested with both calls from address book and not in address book, both gave me times.
Yes I'm on WM6.1. Anyone know if it's modifiable behaviour?
i'm using wm 6.1 stock rom, go to menu then choose call history then you can click contact card and see the date, time and duration for any number even if it is not saved to address book
but when the call is from an unknown number, it will do nothing when I press on the contact card. You can only see the date of call if the call was not received today...

I'm not actually using TF3D - I use SPB Mobile Shell 3. Is that maybe why I can't see call history for numbers which are not in my contacts?
Hi all,
So I'm picking my HD2 up for my birthday next week and have already done a ton of homework (aka reading of the Leo forums here at xda) on the device but have a question...
I have a voipcheap.com account to make free/cheap international phonecalls from my computer. I assume it's viable to use SIP/this service on my HD2 (I've tried on old handsets with varying results, which seem to come down to the hardware being rubbish)
What's everyone using to make calls via their internet calling accounts, and have you successfully used the 'audio routing' tweak to route calls to the normal ear speaker?
Thanks
Mr Baig
I think the best way to go about SIP is using softwares like Fring or Nimbuz
lowcaller
Hi!
VoIPcheap.com is just another phone service offered by Betamax. For a full list, see this page: http://backsla.sh/betamax
For all the Betamax brands, there's a great way of doing VoIP calls from a WinMo phone: go to http://www.lowcaller.com/en/index.php , choose your service (voipcheap.com in your case) and download the cab for your phone (yes, there IS a version for the HTC Leo). Once you download it, it will create an icon on the start menu. Select it, input your voipcheap id and password and your mobile number and UNCHECK the "auto lowcall" (or whatever it is called) option. Tap on "Save".
From this point on, you won't need the lowcaller icon anymore.
To make a call, go to your contact, tap on Menu=>See more information, then Menu => [scroll the menu down] and you will see the Lowcaller options.
I've been using lowcaller for a while now, and it works very well.
Hope this helps...

Fantastic - sounds like this would do the job!
1 week 'til I've got my HD2 and I'll post back here with my results.
Just reporting back to say that lowcall appears to do the job perfectly (just made the 1 call right now, in a dodgy 3g area!)
Many thanks to ccristal for the tip-off, more people need to know about this little cab for sure.
Now for another question (sorry!) - is there anything that exists which takes advantage of the SMS service in Betamax clients like Voipcheap.com? I use the text service occasionally to text internationally so it'd be great if I could access this on my phone.
Trust the xda-devs to be on the case!
Actually, you can send sms using lowcaller itself. If you select a contact from the WM contact list (not the Manila one) and you open the menu, you will find a menu item to send a sms to that contact using lowcaller.

It's important to point out, however, that the call is not a full VoIP call. When you use lowcaller, you actually call an access number in London, and it's only from that point on that the call is forwarded using VoIP. Here's how I think it works under the cover:
there are 3 numbers in the game here: your number, your contact's number and the lowcaller access number.
you select a contact in your list and call it using lowcaller;
a data connection is opened, and your own number and your contact's number are sent to the lowcaller server;
the lowcaller server associates the two numbers with an access number taken from a pool, and it returns the access number to the lowcaller client running on your phone;
the lowcaller client dials the access number;
the software running on the server identifies your number and the access number you are calling and retrieves your contact's target number from the mapping established at step 3, after which connects the call.
This has an interesting side effect: after the first call to a given contact, you can associate the access number that lowcaller actually called with the contact as if it were your contact's own number. From that point on, every time you dial the same access number, you will actually call your contact, without a data connection being opened at all, since the mapping between your number and the contact's number is already stored in the table for that access number.
Not sure if I've been clear enough... but please do feel free to come back to me for any additional question you may have.

No, you don't have to. If you don't, every time you call the same contact a new data connection will be opened, and a different access number may potentially be chosen. However, if you do associate it, you won't need to go to the WM contact page to get to the lowcaller menu, since the number will be visible from Manila and can even be saved as a shortcut.

Hi guys, I've just moved over from iphone so still finding my feet with android.
For the most part android is far superior but the contact side of things is still bugging me. This is what I want to be able to do:
1. Have my call log as calls only, not texts. I know you can change this to view calls received, dialled etc, but it soons defaults back and shows everything. I just want my log to have dialled and received and nothing else? I'm sure i've read somewhere on the net that this was possible on the SGS through a hack??
2. I want to set up a favourites list of say best mate, gf, work etc and just be able to press their name and it dials there number, not opens another window that shows history, text option, dial option video call option, i.e. just direct dial. I also would like this to be the first screen that opens when I press my phone icon on the dock??
I've set my gf up on my desktop as a direct dial shortcut, but I don't want to be doing that for everyone. I've got a load of contacts but maybe only dial 10 at most on a regular basis.
are there any hacks or thrid party dialers that do this??
Cheers

I can help you with #2. Just swipe right on your favorite and you call that favorite immediately. Swipe left to immediately send a message.

hmmm, can't say i can see a way around No.1, other than using a new dialer/contacts app such as Go Contacts or Dialer One etc..
must say, i actually quite like the comprehensive log, coming from Sense and Stock roms with calls only, i like having it all in one place...
Dialer One would be my choice, but only as i used it on CM7 on my Hero for its smart dial feature... can't comment on Go Contacts
hope this helps
Dickie
I use loads off texts a day so within 10 mins of dialling someone their details are long gone
I'll check out Go Contacts and Dialer One though, thanks for the recommendations
This is a Samsung thing, regular android does not put texts with the call log. I don't think I'd like them to be combined like that.
it is the right thing to do
