is there a way you can send DMTF with the JAM like in most nokia phone if not all
They say that if you switch off sound when you press buttons, DTMF tones are sent correctly. There was such a reply in this forum. Sorry, I don't remember the author
DTMF is no problem with my device even with sound/tones active when pressing the buttons.

It was not good on mine - T-Mobile MDA Compact. In some cases the other side did not show reaction on incoming tones. With the sounds set to "off" it became fine.
do one of you guys know, how i can store these dtmf tones? for example i you've got a mailbox where you have to enter a code for access. the easiest way(you don't have to remebmer the code) is to store the phone number incl the dtmf tones in the phonebook. like nokia does it, e.g. +49323244322p1234
after the p is the access code.
do you know a way how to do this with the magician?
thx in advance
simple. create a contact with the dial string. assing a speed dial and you're good to go.
111-2222,,,,1233
each comma makes the phone wait a few seconds before inputting the 1233 string.
Hope that helps.
cool thx. its working.
It is the same as Nokia
You can also do with the magician as with any other phone. The Pause digit ("p") is a standard convention. If you use it in a number in a Nokia phone, the phone will wait for the other end of the call to "pick up", and then will send the remaining characters as DTMF.
Same on the Magician. You should have just tried.
The use of commas is also standard and works in all phones, but it just makes a 1-second pause, which is not very reliable for the first DTMF sequence after "pick-up". In fact, due to line coverage, 4 commas might work one time, but not the other time. "P" works all the time.
On my Magician phone book I actually have very long sequences of DTMF, to check various types of voicemails, or use calling cards. I always use "p" after the main number, after that the use of p or comma is the same, it's always 1 second.
the "p" doens't work with my mda compact.
the , is okay but p not.
i tired before, otherwise i wouldn't ask
:roll:
That's really strange!!!! Could it be that MDA's have got a different dialler (my Magician is i-mate)?
In my Contacts in WM 2003 I used to be able to define an access number before I call my contact e.g.:
08707940000,,01xxxxxxxxx.
Where the first number is access number and the second is the contact's number.
However now, the phone only dials the access number (the first number) and after a short pause I can hear it dialling 3 to 4 DTMFs but it is not actually dialling them because the provider is not picking it up the DTMFs.
I have to dial the numbers manually and than its OK.
Can anyone reproduce this? Please help!
Same issue here... I have a contact like this:
+3493532XXXX,1234#,0561617XXXXXXX
This dials +3493532XXXX (my home number) where I have an asterisk box, then I hear the message "Please enter your password followed by the pound key" and the DTMFs for the password and # key are sent correctly (in the number the passwd is 1234), then I hear the tone where I can dial any number, I dial 056 (prefix to use FreeWorldDialout on my asterisk) and 1617XXX (USA Boston number)... I hear all the numbers, but I see my asterisk hanging up before the whole number has been sent.
Very weird... I will do some more tests to see if I can find any solution...
Ok, finally I got the solution... do not put more than 4 digits without a comma (pause)... i saved my contact like this and now it enters the password and dials correctly:
+3493532XXXX,1234#,056,1617,XXX,XXXX
Hope it helps you too! :shock:
I did what you did, the problem seam to be that the DTMF tones are not sent at all aldough I can hear them.
I'm getting this too very odd. Getting rather bored of holding the phone up to my speakers so I can play the right tone and empty my voicemail box!
hi.. got my vario II on friday, and i have the same problem. i used to be able to dial an international number on my UNIVERSAL by calling the local access number and insert a pause before dialing the international number for example: 02071246666,006596454343. however, this does not work on vario 2 and i am very upset about it!!
Hi,
you have checked this:
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL: EnableDTMFSupport = 0
switch to
EnableDTMFSupport = 1
Hi,
Thanks for the help, but i tried that, but it was already set to "1".. i switched to "0", soft reset, switch back to "1", soft reset again, but still not working...
I am also having this problem, cannot empty voicemail at the moment.
I have the same problem on my Vario II. When I'm entering the number manually during the call I can hear the sound, but the other end does not respond to my input at all.
This is really annoying as I can't get into my voicemail or contact customer service
Anyone had a solution for it so far?
Are there more people with a TyTn/Vario with this problem? If so, do respond because it might be a bug or something...

On my Vario II if I go to the phone app dial 150 and when connected then press keypad I can then navigate the customer service menus by pressing the on screen number keypad if that is what you mean?
Yes, that is exactly what's not working for me. I can press the keys during the call, and I hear the tone, but somehow the other end does not get them.
Interesting topic I just saw on MoDaCo: http://www.modaco.com/Problem-with-Phone-Dialer-on-Hermes-t247377.html
It turns out that it is not just the DTMF, but also the d-pad up key not going to the call history, and the 3G icon having changed to U.
This all happened after a hard reset.
Can anyone else who did a hard reset confirm if they have any of these problems?
Check that
HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\3GVTEngine\AMRDTMFToneFile = "\windows\dtmf122.amr"
then try changing the value of
HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\3GVTEngine\UseAMRDTMFTone
from 1 to 0 or 0 to 1
No idea what it means, but it is set up in some Preconfig setups
Excellent, I solved my problems. What I did was re-install all the cab files from the extended ROM. This gave me back my T-Mobile dialer and also made the DTMF working again.

That worked for me to.
Mine worked fine untill I installed the DeepOcean dialler skin and then it stopped working - removed it and it came back (DeepOcean lacked smartdial).
Installed the Eten dialler and smartdial, and have lost the tones again, think this phone skin is great, but it won't properly uninstall (need the original T-mobile phone skin/graphics) so am currently stuffed!
Have done all the usual soft reboots etc.
I'm confident if I re-instated the deafault t-mobile dialler it would come back, however, I don't want to do a hard reboot and reinsatlll all the add-on apps and data.
Any ideas how to get the DTMF tones working - I can 'hear' them, they are clearly not being sent, If I put it on speaker phone, then in clear conditions the mike picks it up and it works!!
Any ideas?
DTMF Doesn't work - FIXED IT!
Fixed it!!
Editing the registry and setting the value to 0, then soft reboot and dtmf tones are working.
Setting it to 0 wasn't the obvious choice, and previously I hadn't soft rebooted.
Found the following from dhushy in:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=276700
Worked it out. For anyone with a similar problem, use the registry editor to locate the following key:
HKLM,"Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL","EnableDTMFSupport",0x0 0010001,1
Change the value from 1 to a 0 and Bob's yer Uncle (for non-British readers that means everything will be cushty - see Only Fools and Horses for a contextual translation)
Did this and I was able to manipulate my voicemail messages as normal.

I am on T-Mobile UK.
A Big Thank you
This advice on changing the dtmf code from 1 to 0 was the thing ive been lokking for - for the last 4 months. A really big thank you
No one at T-Mobile has the answer and HTC tech support referred me here. I dial my office voice mail maybe 10-15 times a day. On my Sprint phone I was able to insert pauses in the dialing. It would dial the number, pause for the voice command, add a string of numbers, pause for the next voice command, and finally put in my password. So I could press 3, for example, and it would take me all the way through to my messages. So far I can not find a way to put in the pauses on the Wing. So I have to press 3 and then wait for the voice command, and then manually put in the next string of numbers, then wait again for the next voice command, and then put in the password. This is time consuming and impossible to do while driving. Anyone know if it can be done on the Wing? If so, how? Thanks, Tom
I have not tried it on the Wing... But try just putting a comma "," in the dialing string... Should work.... Does on all my other phones......
Commas
I tried this. Maybe I'm doing it wrong, but I don't think so. In my contacts I go to the phone number. Here is the string I use (with x's for most of the numbers): 1802xxxxxxx,,,#802xxxxxxx,,,xxxxxx
I have this as a speed dial and also as a T-Mobile Fav. Any way I try to dial it it only dials the 1802xxxxxxx and then stops.
There is no way to insert pauses
I have now been told by someone who seems to know at T-Mobile that the Wing has no way to insert pauses into a contact phone number. To me this is a near fatal flaw. It means that if I call my office voice mail 5-10 times a day I have to type 16 extra digits (which includes my phone number and my password) each time I try to get my messages. Oh well.

P's don't work for me

Tried it on the Wing but no luck. When I dial with the P's added, the dialing never gets past the first string of numbers. On the dialing screen there are no P's and nothing past the first string. This is true for comma's also. When I tried it with ***'s it did appear, these did appear on the dialing screen of the Wing when I dialed but the call clicked off without dialing with the message, "Call Ended." One thing I noticed is that Outlook takes anything after the first string of numbers and puts the rest under "Extension" and puts an x before it. But I'm having the problem even if I enter the number only on the Wing and not in Outlook.
My mistake -- p's work and also commas

Yes! I see what I was doing wrong. A comma or a "p" both work fine. Thanks for the help.
One problem remains: I have this number as one of My Fav's, and if I dial it using My Fav, it doesn't do the pauses. I think I have to wait until July 1 and refresh the My Fav. -- I hope.
And what have you done wrong? (Just to solve this one exactly)

At least this: When did the speed dial (after inserting the pauses), at least a few times I did not wait long enough for the pause to kick in. On my Sprint phone I think it happened quicker with more pauses (I think), and I was used to have it happen quickly.
The Call Ended message that kept happening may possibly have been due to being out of a service area, but I tested at the time and other calls were going through, so I'm not sure what happened.
Finally, I haven't synced it back with my desktop yet. I hope the Outlook on the desktop doesn't screw things up.
One more thing if it is useful: T-Mobile has these My Fav's. If I dial using the speed dial or directly from the number itself, it is working. But if I dial directly from the My Fav's it does not insert the pause. I think the reason is that I uploaded the My Fav number to T-Mobile before I put in all the pauses, so T-Mobile must have it and be using it without the pauses. On the first of the month I intend to upload it again with the pauses and see if that will work. Hope so.
Thanks, Tom
we can also use a 'w' to insert a wait
along with the 'p' for pause, a 'w' can also be used to insert a wait. That would be useful when you are not sure how long to pause and want control of when to send the rest of the DTMF sequence. If you insert a 'w', you have to keep pressing the Green Call button and it will keep sending the DTMF sequence till the next 'w' in the number.
I use that very frequently to dial international phone numbers with different calling cards.
a w may work on the wing, most current android phones it seems like a ";" is whats required for the wait tone. also a comma is used for pause (3 seconds)but the easiest way i found to do it is by simply pressing the menu button while in the dialpad screen, it will pop up with options to add wait's or pause's
I haven't been able to get Google Voice to function as voicemail on the Aria, either by using the in-phone command, the call commands specified by the website, or the bootleg "type in the number" method that I used to get it working with my G1. There are actually commands missing from the call settings menu (the additional GSM call settings): principally the "call forwarding" commands. AT&T meddling, or am I missing something?

I have had no problem using GV as my voice mail and forwarded number as well.
Made sure i set it up on the website first then ran GV and set it up following the prompts. Skipping the step where i tried to change the voice mail settings automatiically. Use the settings option on the website to give me the # 004 # etc.. code which set up the forwarding without much problems.
When I go to Menu > Settings > Call > .., at the very bottom I see call forwarding, Call barring settings, Additional Settings, etc.
As for Google Voice, I don't believe you need to change anything using the settings within the Aria. For me, anyway, I left my voicemail settings intact on the Aria, and my calls still get directed to Google Voice (I figure by keeping the carrier voicemail settings, it'll default to that if Google Voice fails). So if you changed the voicemail settings ON the Aria (via Menu > Settings > Call > ..) then change them back to the AT&T settings?
Don't have the phone with me now, but when I tried the *004 etc# thing it returned some kind of incorrect code error message. I'll try it again tomorrow. I'm just glad to hear that's it working for someone.
Works for me using *004*.... method.
It failed for me thru the Google Voice App, but worked when I activated via the Google Voice website...make sure you type it in exactly as they tell you to on the website.
I did it a couple of times, and very carefully; got the same error message each time. So I don't know what's going on. I'll try it again tomorrow (it's not my phone). I do like the phone, however. It's a lot snappier than my G1 and I like the size. I don't think I'd miss the extra cpu or screen size of the nexus and I can get it for almost nothing; I'm thinking about it. But then there's that Legend...

Hmmm... well, Google Voice began working immediately for me on my non-rooted Aria, after I installed GV and did the set-up (coming from a Nexus). It sometimes has trouble deleting messages from voicemail, but that's about it. I didn't touch anything, and GV was one of the first apps I installed.

Calling out to Google Voice voice mail may not work correctly if you rooted and used fluffy's original app sideloading procedure, which has since been fixed. There was an 'android_id' problem with the original method. I think non-rooted users should be okay.
Unfortunately, they only way I know of to correct the android_id problem is to wipe data (restore factory settings) and start fresh, and then use the new sideloading patch. This uses your existing settings and not someone else's.
When I did that, at least all off my downloads showed up in android market so all I had to do was redownload and install them. It saved a lot of searching for the apps I had downloaded previously.
The HTC dialer can be quirky somethings. I would try *004*+12223334444# where that is the GV number, the plus may help I am not sure though.
If that doesn't work call 611 and have them forward unanswered and rejected calls to you GV number. They can set the option on there end since it isn't phone dependent, but rather dependent on the network.
I did a wipe and reinstalled, used the new sideloading method and still cannot get GV to work. Getting a MMI error code.. Tried adding the + in as well, no luck.
I have now tried everything mentioned. Any attempt to dial the google code, with or without the "+", returns: Connection problem or invalid MMI code.
Any attempt to change the call forwarding numbers returns: "Unexpected response from network."
I'm glad it's working for everyone (nearly) else, but it just isn't here. I talked to an att rep; they didn't have a clue. I suppose I'll have to try another one...
Okay, I finally found a tech at att who could sort it out. And while he was doing so -- it took a while -- he admitted he himself didn't know what network quirk made it not work the way it should in my case.
So for anyone else with this unexplainable, network problem: persevere until they bump you up to a serious tech.

Glad to hear you got it worked out, was it on their side or did you have to do something to the phone?
Why are some of you guys sideloading GV? It's in the market. Install it from there.
I don't think it is that we are sideloading it, it was the original sideloading "fix" that was posted may have had something to do with the GV issue, at least that was the hope for me, but I still cannot get it to work.

It was completely on their side. And they couldn't even explain why it wasn't working the way it should.
I just called AT&T because my regular VM wasn't working, callers were getting a fast tone busy when I was on the line, also call forwarding wasn't working. They tinkered around a bit, turns out my VM number was in only one place where it is supposed to be in two, so it was a programming error. Once that was fixed I tried GV again and was able to set it up using the *004* method and it does now work! Hope this helps others...
Contact name doesn't show up when they call - using Straight Talk AT&T on Verizon N3
Hello,
I am having some problems with my contacts after switching to a verizon note3 from an AT&T note 2. I had no issues on my prior phones (t-mobile HTC One, AT&T s3, etc) and all of my phones get their contacts imported automatically from my google account.
For some reason, when my friend calls, their number shows up as "+xxx-xxx-xxxx" with the plus sign in the front. Unless I go in and change all of my contacts to have that + sign in the front, my contact's name doesn't show up.
I also had trouble calling them back by pressing the missed call because of the plus sign (I get a voice message saying something like "the international call you are attempting to place is not possible". This has been fixed by an app called "prefixer" which can take out the + sign everytime I make any calls.
Other than changing all of my contact phone numbers, is there any way I can make my default contact app ignore the +?
International Prefix
I have the exact same issue. With a Verizon SIM it works just fine, but with a GSM SIM the calling number appears (incorrectly) like +212-555-1212 (rather than simply 212-555-1212, or even, correctly, +1212-555-1212)
Can this be fixed in the ROM or kernel, or better yet, by the user?
Thanks
