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.

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!

Steal Files Over Bluetooth

Check this article out... it has information on the methods used to hack bluetooth enabled devices.
The easiest way to avoid this is 1) Turn your BT off if/when you're not using it 2) Set your device to "Not Discoverable by other devices." 3) Smash your friends PDA to bits...J/K
Even so, those clever hackers always seem to find a way around an obstacle, if they didn't we wouldn't have the useful wealth of information found on this website... Not all of em are bad.

he keeps it locked and hidden from eyes sight. like its some massive secret
Ok I am not an expert on this but while various bluetooth attacks may allow access to phone records an such (particularly on older phones) non of them should allow complete browsing of the file system an a brand new WM5 device. Your device is a TyTN equivalent correct?
I think what has happened is that at some point your friend had a chance to pare the two devices so now he has complete access. Check your bluetooth settings and delete any devices listed there. Also delete any incoming ports and uncheck 'make device discoverable'. This should solve your problem. (If not I would very much like to hear about the technique used - out of sheer scientific curiosity of course)
And by the way, if he does this to you more that once to prove that he can, he is not much of a friend...

Not exactly sure what you mean by this.
What I was trying to say is that a friend might do it once or twice to show off his knowledge and not keep bugging you.
Levenum, I was trying to make a delicate joke about anal sex.
No offence meant!
V
Non taken, my brain is just a bit underclocked at the moment, its been along day.
Any way I am waiting for someone to jump in and tell me that i am not up to date and there is a way to hack in to any WM5 device by BT without users consent and get full control of file system.
V.
I am offended.... but only as I did not get it.... Oh forget it, get it?

yeah its an mda vario 2.have taken device off discoverable. that's sorted it. would like to know how he's able to do this for to satisfy my own curiosity of course
its a pipe dream give it up.
BT "hacking" will never be anything more than an urban myth, sure there is some cool apps available with a snarfing button that will show some cool CIDs but geezee anything can do that

Video chat over internet with Universal

Hi guys
do you know any program for Uiversal that enables the device to video chat with another pc. i have fount microsoft portrait , but it doesnt support universal webcam.
thanks.
no ways?
I'm also looking for that kind of application.
Anyone could help us?
Many thanks in advance!
Currently, there're no TCP/IP-based (that is, no UMTS-based "native") chatter apps.
I too would love to have this kind of app, it just brings the Universal to yet another level!. Ive tryed searching but found nothing. I hope someone finds something soon
SKYPE
Anyone tried SKYPE mobile? I hear it works on PDA's I think it has video also.
How about Microsoft Portrait... http://research.microsoft.com/mcom/portrait/
skype>>doesnt have video chat
portaite>>doesnt support universal camera
did you ever used cool camera software that get the ppc video to pc with active sync i think this is based on tcp/ip.we should use this http://www.ateksoft.com/ >>cool camera. plz test it and find that can we change the ip off the pc that configurated in this program.
well the new beta skype has live webcam, maybe a matter of time skype will release a new better beta skype with webcam
but it would be awsome
the new version of skype that has webcam its only for pc i think and its version 3 but i am not sure
That cam on the front was a damned waste.
Well not really, it was only ever put there for video calling, which some people apparently use somewhere.
Nearly everyone I know has a 3g phone, not one person uses video calling though,
skype mobile does not support video chat. Pointless to post information that you haven't verified or can confirm.
Odd, I've got the universal using the front camera on portrait today.
Make sure you use beta 3.0 and soft reset after installing it.

Sounds like some Bull**** Buddy. Nothing personal, but I've tried about 20 different possiblities, including changing the registry entry for the cam that portrait uses and it does not every work with the video call camera, only the main camera on the universal. Further research has shown that there are almost 30 other people who have made posts in various different forums about this very issue with different branded universals. It seems that with the current version its not possible. If you really did do this somehow, posting more useful information about what else you've installed or what you've tweaked may help someone reproduce it. As far as Im concerned however, this Myth is BUSTED.

Location Based Profile Manager For Windows Mobile

There's a nice software for windows mobile devices called GSM Locator and you can find it at
http://www.handango.com/catalog/ProductDetails.jsp?storeId=2218&productId=246582
It uses GSM Cell Information and assigning various actions to be performed automatically when you enter or leave a specific place: set alarm, switch current theme, change ring tone , change volume , change ringer mode,change phone status ,change phone status ,change bluetooth status , send SMS ,Run Exe or e-mail message
It's a really nice software i'm using it on my HTC Tytan II Device and it working nice, you can try it for free for 13 days.
Enjoy It
It is something I have been thinking about for a while... Does it allow to change the profiles manually from the today plugin? Or to switch the WiFi or Bluetooth on/off?
Changing Profile Manually
GOOOOOD IDEA ,, but it dosn't switch profile manually it uses the cell information to switch profile automatically ,,
But they will take it into considration in next release ,, I sent your idea to them and they replyed this feature will included in next relase next FEB,, if you have another suggestions you can mail them at [email protected]
Guys,
for that matter, better use PhoneAlarm - it can't be beat http://www.pocketmax.net/phoneAlarm.html

any way we can't compare GSM Locator with phoneAlarm because they are diffrent ,,
phone alarm aims to make phone usage more simpler and it gives users some profiling capabilities
but GSM Locator is a "Location Based Profiler" it aim to customize you phone settings based on your location throw a list of activites like
Change Device Volume
Change Phone Volume
Change Ringtone
Change Ringer Mode
Change Bluetooth state
Send SMS to a Pocket Outlook contact
Change Theme
Set Alarm
Start an executable file (.exe)
Change Phone State (ON ,OFF Flight Mode)
Also it can integrate with any other software using "start an executable activity". this feature gives you the ability to do any thing you want.
Much more GSM Locator support schedules that you can use to customize you setting on time bases without changing the profile.
You can use schedules to activate flight mode at night and turn it off at the morning or changing windows mobile theme once at the morning , at the evening ,at the night ,, etc,,
And you can get all those features with just 34.99 $ , WOW so great
GSM Locator is really different and powerfull
http://www.handango.com/catalog/ProductDetails.jsp?storeId=2218&deviceId=1149&platformId=30&productId=246582
Hey, PhoneAlarm does all this too, and much much more!
Besides location based profiler, it also incorporates Calendar and time-based profilers etc etc. GSM Locator is just one of the locator options, others also being wi-fi, cell broadcast, SIM-low resolution, and GPS. And PA's profiles are fully packed with an enormous number of features.
Dear nallvaico
We are not here for fighting we just sharing our experiences with the two software products ,, I used the both and I selected GSM Locator and also I see phoneAlarm not easy to use than GSM Locator .
this is my opinion as i'm free and this is ur opinion so, no problem at all ,, i see GSM Locator good for me.
and I advice people who searching for such software products to try GSM Locator
http://www.handango.com/catalog/ProductDetails.jsp?storeId=2218&deviceId=1149&platformId=30&productId=246582
And at the end of the day people can try the both products and decide which one is better for them comparing to the features the get and the cost they pay ,, take it easy dear
Cellprofileswitcher is freeware and does the same, read here and download.

LOOOOOOOOOOOL(s) , i'm not working for any anyone else. I bought a software ,, and I see it's a good software product that's all ,,
Then, you seem a little too eager, I was thinking of trying the app but you seem too pushy with the "this is the greatest app ever attitude." That is why people are suspecting you. In XDA we are already see people plugging paid apps as a bit dubious, specially when they get as defensive as you have when someone mentions an alternative. I am positive I am not the only one who thinks that way.
In the spirit of XDA-Devs I am going to test the freeware app on my Hermes first, will report later.
In my experience PhoneAlarm, although being very very good software, makes my device sluggish and unresponsive. And I am not alone in this view. I have been using it for about a year, then switched to a simpler SPB something, then Phone Weaver... The phone feels much quicker without PA (same for Trinity and Omnia).
So I do understand that PA is not for everyone and GSM Locator may do the job better.
Are you guys reps of PA by any chance??
No - just a fan.
As I said, best thing is try them all - in the end I had no such issues with PA and still use it.

Missing Features

Hi I just ordered my HTC magic from vodafone, though I have since discovered 2 missing features since.
The first is the circular zoom has been removed from cupcake so not vodafones fault.
Also I hear that the voice search has also been removed.
Can someone with the magic confirm these or point out any other features missing from the G1 or features that may have been demonstrated on the videos demonstrating the Magic.
yes..i'm comfirm
there's more!!
I just got my htc magic yesterday and when I turned it on, it was missing HTC DIALER and the HTC SYNC for android as well.
I'd thought they were included in the package and the phoning screen is different to the demo on the website as well. Not that its the end of the world but at least when you sell something make it clear on what you're getting.
are the described applications like pdf reader, word/excel/power point compability, Microsoft exchange. Enabled?

Not on the Voda variants... but they will be on the HTC release. Typical Network customisation?
I also heard that latitude is missing from google maps.
I am not too worried about these features missing as either, I never use them or apps on the market place can be used instead. Getting my magic on monday.
Latitude is included and works great : -)
Typed on my HTC Magic
My magic is due to arrive on Monday. I am like a lot of others a Kaiser running Android and liked the experience so jumped ship. So what do you think of the magic?
vodafone e-forum
Yeah, we were discussing this on the Vodafone eforum. (thanks to haykuro for proving that things have been left out).
Its quite funny, when we started (on wednesday) the forum was completely open, but in 4 days of posting, we have had external links removed, and now they are moderating every post before it gets published, so they're clearly not happy with us discussing what's missing :/
agree,they been deleting 3 of my posts after about less then 5 minutes that they were up,so how can we get some right answers??
anyway is a disgrace ,so much words on the "OPEN SOURCE" and then some cool features are missing.
i do understand that android need to be modify to fit different phones like the samsung I7500 were on the camera setting there is a extra setting for the flash on/off. but no voice dialling??? i do drive for work so for me is a must feature, no pdf and so on.
i been criticizing the iphone and i don't want bite my tongue.
i hope voda is gone find a solution to all that or we will be forced to jailbreak it if we can get all the features and benefit of the android platform .
should we complain direct to Google as their adverts about android is misleading???????

Sorry I couldn't find discussion on VodaUK forum with links to these apps. on Haykuro's website there are no apps, just Magic port to G1.
Or am I missing something?Is it possible to install HTC Sync on Magic?
Does anyone know how to undo some of the Vodafone restrictions in place on the Magic or revert to the original HTC setup?
Here's a few of the features that I was expecting to see
Rotate Animation - shrink to small image then expand to fit orientation
Menu on lanscape mode
Support for word, exel, pdf etc
Support for Microsoft Exchange
Activesync
Voice activated dialling plus apps

does the phone support T9 or will the only method of entry is basic Qwerty keyboard?
getting the missing app back from this ??
Can't we concentrate on helping this guy to get the firmware out of his pre release magic to get the missing app from our VF magic back? ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=494535
He's uploaded the system folders on the web but he is still to find a way to get the system dump out. . .. i'm not really too much into android and don't really understand much of it, but can't we get the rom from this phone and get it into VF then we'll be happy with our phone and enjoy it with the rest of our contract ??
I'd like to see htc syn, Microsoft office and active sync back into my vf magic too
