I am wondering if there is any way to send all incoming calls to voicemail when I am using PDAnet to get online. I know there is a PDAnet setting to "allow calls when connected" but even if I uncheck this, calls still come through and discconect my internet.
The reason I'm posting this here is because if something specific to PDAnet isn't available, or possible, is there anything that I can do to the phone to not have incoming calls disconnect my internet connection? I had a Motorola Q for a little while, and there is a "bug" that actually does this automatically (sends call to voicemail while on EVDO). It was a setting in the DEBUG menu, in the field test option, called DDTM, and it was by default on (I think), and so people had to change that to off (could be switched) to allow incoming calls. It was perfect for me though. Now, I think I tried looking for a DDTM setting in the mogul and I had found it a while back, but I dont think it did anything with regard to my situation. So my questions are:
Is there anything with PDAnet that I can do besides the setting I talked about? Registry or something...?
If nothing with PDAnet, then does anyone know how to change the DDTM setting on a mogul? I got into the DEBUG menu (##33284#) and I didnt find any DDTM setting there.
Besides the DDTM setting (since it hasn't worked for me in the past) is there any other method you guys can think of that will do what I want?
Thanks!!

Hmm, that does seem to work for my last option. But I cant receive any calls at all when in this mode, so I guess I would have to manually change this each time . Is there any way this entry can be automatically changed somehow with a script or a registry change?
How I dont see mode of operation under services list. This is all I have:
Location setting, Voice Privacy, Network Service, TTY Mode, and Time Sync
Found this on an old thread somewhere.
edit the registry to make that option appear in the services list. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHING\Software\OEM\PhoneSetting
Change HiddenPreferenceMode from 1 to 0
I am on WM6 and the correct registry to change to make the "Mode of Operation" selection appear is: HiddenModeOperationPage (set value to 1 to hide, and 0 to show).
Cheers ...
Sorry for what might be an incredibly stupid question - my Touch Dual only rings for about 20secs which is frequently not enough time for me to answer it. Anyone know how to increase this time? I've been through the manual but can't find an answer on how to do this.
cheers
squire
it's operator depends
Thanks but I don't think that's right - I had a Sony Ericsson phone before my HTC & I could change the ringtone length to whatever I wanted
You need to go Start > Settings > Phone > Network > Services > Call Forwarding
And in there you can set the timeouts before diverting to voicemail, but the length of times available to choose from are network dependant. The max I can set is 30 seconds.

I read a post by smachine detailing how to do this a few weeks back and it seemed so simple, I thought I'd try it. And it was! I wish I had done this months and months ago; unlimited calling over wifi and 3G, so easy! His original post is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8813244&postcount=18
This is so awesome I thought I'd start a new thread on this for others to see, and make a little guide out of it for easy reading / bulleted-format. The entire process should only take around 15 minutes. Here goes:
[Edit 11/23]: Added CSipSimple setup info and link for Sipgate setup
--------------------------------------------------
Get a SIP Account:
A) Purchase a Gizmo5 account (eBay around $5 to $10). (I purchased from buildfruitkit.)
B) [Edit 11/23]: Or try a free SipGate account (Note: I haven't tested this but might be worth a try before buying a Gizmo5 account.)
Log into https://my.gizmo5.com -> Change email -> Change password -> Write down your Sip Number
On PC: www.google.com/voice -> Voice Settings -> Add another phone
Name: SIP
Number: Your Sip Number (no "1" beforehand)
Phone Type: Gizmo
Save
Verify the number (click Connect, it will call, Sipdroid will ring, enter the two numbers)
You now have free incoming calls! Yay!
On phone: Download CSipSimple OR Sipdroid from the Android Market:
CSipSimple (Seems to be better than Sipdroid) [Added 11/23]:
Open app. Wait for files to download
"Easy Configuration" Screen:
"Integrate with Android": Leave checked
Availability Profile: Choose based on preference
"I'm allowed to use mobile": Check this if you want to call over 3G
Add Account:
Select Sipgate or Generic Wizards -> Basic
Account name: Anything (I put "Gizmo")
User: Your full sip number (including 1 beforehand)
Server: proxy01.sipphone.com
Password: Your Gizmo password
It should show up in the accounts list as Green and Registered
Sipdroid:
Open App -> Settings -> SIP Account
Authorization Username: Your Sip Number (including a "1" beforehand)
Password: Your Gizmo password
Server or Proxy: proxy01.sipphone.com
Username or Caller ID: Your Sip Number again (including a "1" beforehand)
Port: 5060
Settings -> Advanced Options
Use STUN Server: Check this box
STUN Server name: stun01.sipphone.com
STUN Server port: 3478
(Optional: if you find calls too quiet) Sipdroid -> Settings -> Audio/Video -> Earpiece Gain -> High or Highest
For outgoing calls, download "Google Voice Callback FREE" from the Android Market (no need to purchase Gizmo5 credit)
A) Sign in with your Google username/password.
B) Choose your callback number (select Gizmo), and select "Ask every time" or "Always (when possible)" based on your preference.
Calling:
A) Incoming calls: These should be routed through CSipSimple/Sipdroid (as long as the app is running).
B) Outgoing calls: Use the stock dialer. GV Callback Free should pop up -> Tell it to call you back. This will make it act as an incoming call just like A)
Hope this helps others out there.

I used to have this plan before they even had a month-to-month version of this data only plan. If you sign up for a 2yr version of it you also can get a AAA 15% discount (you can't get this on a month to month plan) so that you only pay $34/mo data only.
Im im UK...can i get free calls over wifi/3g?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Hey Paul, Do I only have free incoming calls when someone calls my sip number only ? or is it my tmo number and google voice numbers also.
Glad the guide is helping out people. Feels good knowing I helped out on these threads, as I have learned so much stuff here over the past month.
I used GV call free app, however lately the program sometimes doesnt dial out. Has anyone found an alternate callback app that works almost 100% of the time? I say that there was another app called google voice callback free, I might give that a shot.

Its only the google voice number. If you have an incoming call and are in a bad data connection area/ no wifi you can press the back button and you can take the call using the tmobile network (as long as you set up call forwarding of your google voice number to tmobile number). You should just start telling all your close contacts your new google voice number. This sipdroid setup has been great for when i go to my relatives house who has next to 0 tmobile reception, I can just connect to wifi, and my then gets full reception. I used to really want tmobile UMA wifi calling, but now there is no need with this setup.
one question ,does it work if u make international calls or just the local call or us only....

I actually finally got around to setting this up on my phone on Thursday using pretty much the same setup - great minds must truly think alike and all that jazz. I also installed the hacked sipdroid client from the author of Google Voice Callback Free, which allows the callback to be automatically answered by sipdroid. I don't have a great need for voip calling over 3g, so I took it a step further and established a Tasker profile to automatically set the third-party callback setting to "always if internet available" when the wifi state is connected, and left the app's setting on "Never". The Google voice app is still set to handle all outgoing calls, so calls happen as standard gvoice voice calls over the cellular network unless I have an active wifi connection, in which case they are voip calls.
Super easy and fully automated, and completely transparent to the party on the other end.

Where did you find the hacked sipdroid client? Same settings as the normal sipdroid version? What exactly is the difference of the hacked client, is it just so you avoid having to swipe up during the callback?

Free calls to your Google Voice number. Your GV # will forward to your SIP number (or your T-Mobile number if you want). Don't worry, you don't need to give out your SIP number to anyone.

Yeah, I def wouldn't have known about this. Thanks of course.
I tried the GV Call Free app and yeah, it would never connect for me. That's why I switched over to Google Voice Callback. That one worked right away for me.

Yep, that's the one. The author says it was hacked to allow the Gvoice Callback app more access to the sip client under the hood. The main difference is the ability to auto-answer a callback from your Google voice number. It is based on an older version of sipdroid, but it seems to work beautifully for me.

Does the older hacked version of sipdroid cancel the default tmobile ringing when the call is answered (Google voice number is forwarded to ring standard tmobile network)? I believe that feature was added on the newer versions. It would be kind of annoying to answer a call on sipdroid with the stock tmobile dialer still ringing.
I'm not sure exactly what you're asking, but I haven't had any issues with redundant incoming calls - though I do often see missed calls registered when I answer with sipdroid. I'm not sure there's anything that can be done with that aside from changing the phone preferences under the Google voice web app. If it is set up to ring both numbers, both numbers will likely still ring.

The current setup i have right now is that I have both sipdroid on, along with google voice forwarding my gv number to ring my original tmobile number. When I get an incoming call the sipdroid comes up first and is ringing, if i take the call then sipdroid shuts off the google voice-tmobile forwarding ringer. With old versions of sipdroid there would be a dual ringer problem, meaning if i answer the call through sipdroid the phone would continue to ring because google voice forwarding to mobile number wouldnt recognize that the call has already been answered. The reason i keep the forwarding to mobile still on is that I can pick whether to do a voip call or a standard tmobile network call if im in a area with bad data coverage.
I have an HD2 (australian -Telstra NextG) 1.72.841.0 WWE Rom.
Works fine with the Telstra Sim and Data access is fine.
I'm setting up with an alternate sim - "Roaming Sim" (Sim with UK based number and data) so I can ease the roaming costs when I travel outside Australia.
New Sim works fine on voice calls, but there is a block when I try to access data.
The following message is displayed ...
Message ID:
FILTER_DENIED
Problem Description
Your system was configured to deny access to this URL.
Possible Problem Cause
Request denied, as specified in the local filter list configuration.
Possible Solution
Contact your network support team if this problem persists.
Data connection is fine with the Telstra Sim, but with the alternate sim and settings the above block stops any data access.
Any assistance would be much appreciated. Thanks
who is the sim with in the uk?
Settings -> All Settings -> Connections -> Connections -> Advanced -> Select Networks -> Edit (if you already have the details) or New (if you don't) for the data connection for the SIM. Make sure that all the settings are correct for the new SIM (you can easily find them with a search of the internet).

The sim is marketed under the name "Roaming Sim" - for international travel - I believe it is an Irish based company, but the number is +44 prefix so a UK based number.
Their help desk was not very helpful "there is money in your account so things should work properly" and "no-one here has a HTC HD2, so we don't know what to suggest".
Thanks.

Thanks for the trail of where to change the settings - I've set the sim up as per their meager info and I've checked their web site for any info on the problem I'm having - nothing specific to assist there.
On a web search I found mention of a similar error message related to PCs and it was pointing to Proxy setting issues, but there are no Proxy Setting in Cellular Line (GPRS) setup (in setting up the APN for this sim).
I've also done a google of the exact error message in quotes and come up with no listings, hence me coming to the gurus at xda.

No I've checked that with supplier and Data is enabled with the sim.
I've contacted the Australian supplier of the sim and I'm waiting on their tech guru to phone me to try and work through the problem. I'll post if/when I get some resolution.
But don't let that stop you guys from having a go - so far the sim supplier's technical assistance has been very pleasant, but less than actually helpful at resolving the problem.

ok made sure you got the correct internet settings in the phone?
Thanks for the assistance - I have discovered the problem - it was me (obviously).
When I set up the New Network Settings I did not select Proxy settings and therefore did not check "This network connects to the internet".
If you do this (as above) then save - you can't come back to fix the error because you are not offered the Proxy Settings tab if the box wasn't checked on setup.
I've now set up a New network setting, (with Proxy- This network - checked) and I can now access data and URLs.
Thanks for taking the time to help me out, perhaps this might assist another nooby down the track.

Either the calling parties were using the CLIR service (Calling Line ID Restriction), either you are deactivating the CLIP service (Calling Line ID Presentation).
To check for the CLIP service, install my app Advanced Call Settings, select 'Line ID' tab, select CLIP, and tap the button Interrogate.
To activate it again, tap the button Activate.
You may ask your service provider for the availability of the service (it may depends on your contract with the service provider, or the local policy...)
