WM6.5 Contact problem... PLEASE HELP - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps

I would like to know that the WM6.5 contact supports many mobile phone number in one contact?
For example, can I add 10 mobile phone number in 1 contact. Many Thanks.

Yes. Fax, Home, Work, and multiples of each. This is nothing new to WM.
However, I have never tried to enter 10 mobile numbers to one contact. None of my people are important enough to have 10 mobile phone numbers... I wonder what kinda of person has 10 mobile numbers... Hmmmm....

that is just an example. I cannot enter more than one mobile in one person on WM6.1
And I cannot enter more than two mobile in iPhone.
Could you test it if you have WM6.5? thanks

There's only 1 with the description "Mobile", but there are also "Other", "Home", "Home 2", "Car" etc.... Basically all the ones available in Outlook... I have some contacts with 5 or 6 numbers defined for them....

I see 1 with "Mobile" in iPhone too. I can add 2 "Mobile"s in one guy. Could you do that on WM6.5? thanks

Can WM6.5 contact do like this:
First Name: Toby
Last Name: XXXX
Mobile: +1 123 123 1233
Mobile: +1 123 123 1234
Mobile: +1 123 123 1235
Home: +1 123 123 1236
Business: +1 123 123 1237
Fax: +1 123 123 1238
This is very import if some persons with multiple mobile when using sync function. If the WM6.5 does not support such contact may cause information lost during sync.
Please help me to do a very simple test. Many thanks everybody.

The answer to your question is no. Windows Mobile 6.5 is no different in that matter. You can only add one number listed under "mobile". You have to use other categories if there is more than one mobile number (fax, car, home, work, etc).
As yes...this could mess up or cause sync issues when using different formats.

Wrong ID with the caller ID

My brothers cell No. is same like my home No. only with a different prefix, so when someone is calling from home the Magician mixes the two numbers up and displays brothers name.
Is anyone femiliar with this issue ?
(Bros No. comes first in the contacts)
I have the same problem with various people. Couples have the same home phone number and I have contacts of people at the same place of work.
If one of the couples phone me from their home number or the one of the people phone me from their work, it picks up the first "contact" with that number.
well,In my case the number is the same but the prefix is different
anyone has any Idea how to solve this ?
anyone?
Did you try?: +(country code) (province code)(home number) something like +44 99123456 and for mobile +44 mobile number

Do you mean saving all the contacts with the country code ?
Yes , 00 or + to get international and then country code as i suggested before on both ,fix and mobile numbers.

Dot replaced by zero in Smart Dialer

I've just starting using my new HTC TyTn some days ago, so forgive about stupid question.
When I select a contact name at Smart Dialer, select the phone number, mobile for example, and press return at keyboard, the Smart Dialer replace the "." (dot) at phone number by "0" Zero.
the number 04111 1234.5678 stored at contact mobile phone is dialed as 04111 123405678.
Any help?
Any sugestion?
Nobody have the same problem?
Forgive what may be a stupid question, but why do you need a dot in a telephone number anyways??
I have no numbers with dots in it so i cannot comment but smartdialing for me works perfect.
S.K.

As I sync with my MS-Outlook, all the number have spaces and dots. It's easy to read.

Seconded ?
Surely the solution to your problem, is to remove the dots from your phone numbers ! Convert your contacts in Outlook to Numbers and Spaces only, as they should be, and everything will work fine.

2 Mobile numbers?

Is there a way to add to add 2 mobile numbers for the same contact? I don't why, but people do have more than one mobile, and I just cannot figure out why there is only one Mobile number category in the Contacts option. If anyone knows how to do this, it would be really nice to know. Thanks in advance.

Put the other number at Car field and you will be able to call and send SMS to that number using our device.
Thanks but even after entering it in the Car field I don't get the number when I type a new SMS. (I can send the SMS selecting it manually) It just suggests the number in the Mobile field... so back to square one.
you can create a new text message click contact -> navigate to the caller -> high light the car using your dpad. click menu then click sent text message to

Inesoft Address Book 1.8 or 2.0 has that feature. Just replace one of the fields (say fax,car,etc.) to mobile and you'll have two mobile numbers for a single contact..

Current bounty $255 to anyone who creates these VoIP apps

I am prepared to pledge $30 for some of these hacks, to the first person to develop a working cab to enable them.
If you wish to join me, reply with your pledge and I will update the current bounty below:
$160: Route Kaiser VoIP calls through front speaker
$30: A ipdialplan.xml Dial Plan Wizard app for the WM6 devices including the Kaiser, which allows you to specify in simple fields how your phone book entries should be dialled out via VoIP, and also things like being able to ignore text characters after a number (e.g. +44 20 7841 1234 - Sales)
$65: An app to automatically set different SIP providers for incomings vs. outgoing calls. When phone is inactive, it is set to receiving incoming calls via VoIP provider #1. When you press dial, it sets itself to use VoIP provider #2 until you hang up. (Many people use a no-frills free calls company for outgoing, but a more advanced company for incoming.)
Anyone care to join me in adding to my pledge of $30 for your preference(s), or are able to start a fund on PayPal or somewhere?
Same here, $30 for
1. Speaker correction for Titan P4000 ( should be same problem as Kaiser)
This drives me crazy
I'm in for $50 for anyone that fixes the speaker issue. It is driving me insane

Please explain: do you mean when calling through GSM, dial using rule 1; when calling through SIP: rule 2. Or if there is a +49 in the listed number, then call using rule x ... Or if .......
Since the dialplan xml can support some of these ifs, I presume you are looking for something else, implied by the word 'simple' and wizard?
I simply mean a program that lets you enter your local dialling preferences purely for VoIP calls. This is a much requested feature. Such a program would allow me to specify such things as these:
My country code is +44
My prefix for international calls is 00
My prefix for national calls is 0
From that it should be able to translate the following sort of numbers for dialling out via VoIP using the dialplan file:
+44 20 1234 5678 becomes 020 1234 5678
020 1234 5678 remains 020 1234 5678
+1 404 123 4567 becomes 001 404 123 4567
"+1 404 123 4567 - Sales" becomes 001 404 123 4567
1471 remains 1471
And so on...

No takers ? I'll bump it to $60
Anyone ?
I am now updating the first post with a running total to get these things fixed.
i would love to donate if you can get 2 & 3 done. I use skype IM+ from shape services. Unlimited incoming calls on my plan, and when i dial out via skype it routes and incoming call back to me, and an outgoing call through the server... For full voice quality..??? i would love a dialer pad for that, or an option before i call to call via skype IM+ or normal call... Unless someone has a good voip program for skype that has full quality i would pay for a dialer program to do that .,.. (seems like option 2 and 3)
I will put you down for the $30 for options 2 and 3 then ambush276 unless you state otherwise.
yeah, if we can get it to work in the Skype IM+ fashion, like ive somewhat described... i would defiantly donate $30 to the cause...
the other positive thing about the +IM< is it dials out over VOIP (skype) but then it sends a incoming call to my phone and an outgoing to another phone, from the server. SO im not 100% what to do...

Have a look here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1806047&postcount=16
what about for skype.
I am surprised there has not been more response from developers or hackers to this thread I must say
Me too, I guess it's not that easy to do.
To my suprise not too many people complain about it ... I use VOIP all the time for long distance calls.

For me, the problem is that :
- you cannot rely on any non digit character
- you cannot even rely on the position of groups in the expression
as the parsing of the expression is beginning anywhere in the expression, where it can match the rule.
Example: the rule '123' matches any expression containing 123 (and not only beginning with 123 and having only 3 digits), as 123, or 9812357, or (123), 001 123 456 7890, ...
As I said in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1808972&postcount=19
Those who are using only this three type of phone entries (with or without any non digit characters inside the number):
- a number beginning with only one 0 (zero) = area code + local number -> in that case, you add the international code (+xx) and suppress the 0 before using it.
- a number beginning with 00 (2 zero) = international number -> in that case, the phone number can be used as it is.
- a number beginning with + = international number -> in that case, you change the + by 00 before using it.
have a very simple ipdialplan and it's simple to make a Dial Plan Wizard app (as you only have to adjust the ipdialplan with your international prefix for numbers beginning with only one 0).

PS Was the ipdialplan (updated with the right attachment) posted in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1806047&postcount=16 useful?
The thing is, if there were a wizard, then it would be for each user quite simple to find one that works for him, because he will know what he can rely on depending on how his phone book is formatted.
For me I format every number internationally, even local ones. So calling my neighbour in England, is still formatted as +44 20 1234 5678. But so far there is no dial plan that works for internationally formatted UK numbers, as my VoIP provider likes them converted into local numbers, e.g. 020 1234 5678.
A wizard would solve everything.
Small problem
In ipdialplan, what happens when more than one rule match the expression?
On my HTC Touch, with WM6, it's the last matched rule which is the selected one.
The answer of this question will decide the order of the rules.

Yes it works perfectly for me! I recommend that file to anyone in the UK looking to solve this problem!

I donate
- 20$ for voip sound coming through ear speaker (in all apps: WM6 VOIP, Skype, fring, ...) but also only if one works (like the WM6 VOIP) then its worth the 20$
- 5$ for config with 2 SIP Providers (one for incoming, the other for outgoing)
go for it freaks!

SMS to contact with multiple numbers

It's not an error as such but still a problem.
When entering a person's contact details e.g. Joe Bloggs, he has a work number, mobile, home, work 2 etc.
If I go to compose sms, then click the "to" box.
I then start to type "Joe"
I'm then presented with all of Joe's phone numbers,
Joe Bloggs
0103981 3822
Joe Bloggs
000111 1111
Joe Bloggs
04492 18930 etc.
There's no way for me to know which one is the mobile or the work or whatever.
I know for the Iphone it displays like:
Joe Bloggs
0103981 3822 - work
Joe Bloggs
000111 1111 - mobile
Joe Bloggs
04492 18930 - home
Anyone know of a way to get around this problem. I have multiple contacts who each have multiple numbers.
no one has this issue???
you should have a corresponding symbol before each number...
in contacts it shows a different icon, yes. Not in the text message application though

There is a symbol beside each number when you enter the name above in messaging application.

it's a standard symbol for all phone numbers though. I know what he means, you can't tell the difference between a personal mobile no. and a work mobile no. for a contact who has multiple numbers stored sgainst them.

Thank you! I thought it was just me!!
When you go into contacts, all people and select the person, you are able to press send text message and ONLY here is the icon different so you can see what is work/mobile etc.
