Hi,
here is the new Version 2.3
wfg
Starbase64

Won't work on a lot of devices. Can't record directly from the radio.

what devices does this work with? does the answerphone work silently by intercepting the audio stream of the call. I though this couldn't be done.
If it can be done. How!! Could have lots of fun with this feature

Has anybody testet this on a TyTn II ?

this software ask me for the netCF.. where can i get NetCF?

Tried the newest version 3 on Trinity and it does not work. It cannot play the outgoing message. I hope they can get this working on Trinity.

Not workin'
It's not workin' on my Universal WM5, i unzipped the folder, double-clicked on .exe file, nothin' happens.

After some testing I can say its working fine on my Hermes.
Recording quality is pretty good and it's customizable.
The call being receveid and recorded can be heard trough inner or outer speaker of the pda.
The pda microphone is switched off excepting for the first seconds while your message is played back to the caller.
I'm using iSecretary 3.0... you can find it here.

You mean that you can still record with good quality even when not in speakerphone mode, i.e. the software doesn't depend on the microphone picking up the call from the loudspeaker? If that's the case then the developer deserves the Nobel Price! Up until now everyone(?) have thought that this was impossible due to hardware limitations in the Hermes and almost all other PPC phones from HTC.

I downloaded the version 3 as well, installed the cab. I don't know why the f**k, it ain't workin' on my Universal WM5, even though it mentions clearly in this website, that it's compatible with WM5.
Any suggestions ?
P.S what is Compact FrameWork v2 mentioned on that website ? Is that .NET Framework, anyone with the link ?

Agreed..

I truly agree on that, that is why i really wanna try this application. B'cuz, as far as we know, the hardware of WM phones ain't compatible to record sounds from microphone. Same is the case with Call Recorder.

got it running on the herald without issues.....nice app although I still wish I could get the Answering Machine from the stealth....but like someone said before I thought this could not be done with HTC devices so I'm happy anyway

Does it do as I suspect and just put the call audio to the speakerphone and then record that via the microphone?

yeah, absolutely pal. It's like the answerin' machine in symbian phones. The only difference is that, speakerphone is a compulsion(or a limitation) here, b'cuz of hardware incompatibility.
Adieu..

Hrrrm - thought so.... DO NOT WANT.

WOW is work on my HTC Touch!!! I'm using iSecretary 3.0 is wayyy better then the old vers.........
if they make play message easy i will buy right away!!

I couldnt get iSecretary to work on my Kaiser (Tytn II) i mean it would run but when people would call in they could not hear the voice message.

4.4 wont work on my jasjar

Why I Secretary can’t mute the microphone of my xperia x1 and why the caller can’t hear my answer message
How can I fix this using registry or any tweak tool for windows mobile 6.1
thanks

SKype

does anyone know why skype doesnt work on Ppc

What's your device? OS?
And what about Skype version?
I've got a Cruise and WM6 and Skype 2.2.0.37 works fine.
@+

I have titan and I used 6 & 6.1 wm and no worky

I have it working on WM6 on a Himalaya. How did you install it?
It seems to have trouble installing via cab and needs to be installed using the exe via Activesync (though I am sure there is a way to do it via a cab).
Perhaps you installed it to ramdisk and when your battery goes flat you've lost part of it?
Give us a bit more information of what part exactly isn't working.
Does it install or not?
Does it not launch when you click on it on your PPC?
Which version are you using?
etc

when i make a call i cant hear anyone and they cant hear me and i nstalled with active and cab both dont work

I have a Sprint Mogul also know as HTC TITAN PPC6800 and I just downloaded the SKYPE cab file for pocket pc from the SKYPE.com website and it works perfectly on my phone. I have been using it for over 4 months nows!

Clicking/Skipping during Echo123 call
Hey All--
I've had a Sprint Mogul for about 6 months now--just upgraded to the latest official EV-DO Rev.A ROM, and things seemed to be working a bit better for me (particularily battery-wise, the latest ROM seems to be a little more energy efficient).
So, I felt brave, and decided to give Skype a go. I've been waiting to look into it to fully utilize the WiFi with Skype--cheap and/or free calls from any free hotspot? yes please.--and finally installed the latest available version from the Skype website (can't rememebr the rev #--whatever the website recommends). Of course, it installs, and even calls the Echo123 number, but no sound.
Did a little more research, and found that it's the earlier betas (2.2.0.20 and 2.2.0.18) that seem to be working for people (apparently with mixed with results--some people say the sound quality is awful, some say it works like a charm).
I uninstalled the most recent Skype from the phone, powered down, and then I tried 2.2.0.20 beta--and lo and behold, I was able to hear and record from echo123, but there was a crackling noise (like a CD skipping) any time there was sound coming across the speakers (this is using both the loudspeaker and the included wired headset, also happeded on WiFi or EV-DO, with and without echo correction).
I then uninstalled 2.2.0.20 beta, powered down, and then tried 2.2.0.18. Exact same problem. The sound of my voice coming back on echo123 was actually slightly better than my regular phone; it's just that crcackling that I'm sure will drive me crazy and make the program unuseable.
Has anyone gotten Skype to work on the Mogul without that CD skip sound? I've read through all the forums here, on PPC Geeks, and SprintUsers, and have yet to find anyone definitifely getting great results who can explain how they got there. Is there some other codec or driver that I need to replace? Is there a certain kitchen ROM that will enable Skype to work?
Failing that, is there another program that I can use to make calls for free without having to sign up with an SIP? I also tried fring, but it didn't have any sound on the echo call either, just like the most recent Skype download. Any other suggestions? Seems like things like Octrotalk and SJphone al require setting up some sort of server, which might be fun, but don't really have the time or resources for right now.
I'm leaving for vacation in a few days, and would love to figure this out before I went...any help? Thanks...

i recently tried something called fring, and skype doesn't work on that either.

Why don't you try FRING?
It can manage Msn, Yahoo, Skype and other SIP accounts.....
PS: It works correctly on my Touch.....

More updates
Well, I've been searching around, and it looks like WM6 doesn't natively handle VOIP (check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299950)
I'm going to try to install these dlls and see how far I get...
Otherwise, I have tried fring, and excitingly, everything worked just fine in googletalk (actually the sound quality I got was *better* than a regular cell call)--except that the person I was talking to couldn't hear me. I could chat though, so at least we could communicate. Similarily, skype through fring to echo123 did not work--I connected, but no sound came through my mike.
I also tried a straight up Skype call (using the 2.2.0.18 beta), however the results were very disappointing. Sound had lots of skips, clicks, slowdowns. Don't see how it would be useful, and certainly not worth paying for.
Also installed Octrotalk--but was surprised to see no talk protocols in the program, just chat stuff through AIM, Yahoo, MSN, etc. Also, the soft buttons (the two screen buttons usually on the left and right of the bottom) seem to be unlabelled--I can press them, but there's not text on them, so I didn't even think they were there at first. A bad install? Maybe my Java is outdated?
Anyway, the search continues...

VOIP on the titan??

I was wondering if anyone knows a fully compatible VOIP Service that will run perfectly on the titan?
I've tried skype, but when making calls, they cant hear you can you cant hear them. Beta version trick of skype (2.2.0.18/20) do not work on WM6.1. I've also tried Fring, but while you can hear people talking to you, they can not hear you talk to them (mic issue). I looked all over the net for a fix to this issue but none have been found.
I've only been using skype for a week and all the hype about it being the coolest voip service is quickly fading.....
So I was hoping someone could point me to a fully compatible with the titan VOIP service that runs perfectly.
I'm running DCD's 3.2.6 rom.
Thanks

Anyone out there?

are you in evdo coverage ?

I Think so

Me Too...
I would be interested in an answer to this question as well. I have unlimited EVDO coverage, so using the service over the network is not a problem for me.

You could try this :
http://www.ageet.com/us/products-agephone-mobile.htm
You need your own voip provider. I use http://les.net
Quality is so-so... Choppy audio... But maybe I haven't tried hard enough, there are lots of tweaks that can be done within the application.
Also, skype 2.1.0.66 works really well on DCD 3.2.0
cheers!

i guess a new version of skype was just released that works with the Mogul/Titan in WM6.1 and has audio!

Voip
As noted above, the latest skype mobile (version 2.5.0.108 BETA) will work on the mogul, but still uses the rear speaker.
I have also had some luck with installing WM6Voip.cab and SeuopVoip_v0.3.cab, and configuring the SIP to work with my provider (which is InterVoip). When I use this method, instead of showing Sprint on the dialpad it shows InterVoip as the service. Again it uses the rear speaker.
Third option is a program called AGE phone mobile 2 (which you have to purchase). This lets you set up multiple SIP's and presents its own dialpad. Still uses rear speaker though.
As you probably know, if you use a headset you get around the rear speaker problem.
All these programs/files are easily found with a search.

nimbuzz
If you use the latest version of skype in conjunction with skype account can use audio without rear speaker and gets better volume through headphones for me

what about with bluetooth? will this bypass the rear speaker?

Yes!
If you use BlueTooth headphone, it will bypass rear speakers!

Skype dec 10th Release for HTC P4000 on Telus!
There is a new Skype just released on DEC 10th that works on the P4000 on the telus 6.1 A-GPS ROM, just make sure u put echo cancelation on in options.

Skype 2.5 beta

Looks like a new version came out today:
http://www.skype.com/intl/en/download/skype/windowsmobile/
Unfortunately audio still comes out the back speaker. You'd think they'd figure this out by now.

that speaker isn't accessible for regular windows mobile applications. like skype said themselves about this request: they have ask every phone maker to give information on how to access that speaker on all their phone models. it already works for e-ten devices I believe.
you can only hope that they make it happen soon for diamonds

Fring uses the correct speaker.
http://wmpoweruser.com/?p=2250#comments

That user didn't say what kind of phone he uses, and it doesn't say at all if it works for all WinMo devices.
Let me try it on my Diamond and report back
@edit:
Well what'ya know.. I guess you were right and Skype-devs are not (and so I was not).
Fring can indeed make voice calls (at least to their own voice-call-test-service) through the earpiece on my Touch Diamond.
Interesting

Skype keeps crashing

I just got my 2nd A500, installed Skype but it crashes more often than not. If it works then it works fine.
This is something i found at the skype forums... the exact same thing is happening with me

Sorry, I haven't been able to reproduce that result. Will keep trying though.
Do you have any other voip things running at the same time? Fring? Tango? Qik? GTalk? for eg. Just curious.

I have tried Gtalk, it works fine, will try Fring and Tango.

Oh I was just wondering if they were running on your device, where one app could cause another to possibly crash but it seems you weren't. Will try to use skype more and see if I get crashes.

skype crashes on me as well when I was trying to do a test call. I installed fring and did a test video call just fine though. I can't even stand to look at fring though.

workaround
I had a similar problem on my Acer iconia a500. The work around was to go to settings>wireless and networks>wi-fi settings>wi-fi disconnect policy>never when plugged in. After setting this and plugging in the tablet I can make calls... And it has continued to work since unplugging, so you might even be able to skip that step.

What Skype are you using that allows video? Where do I get it? The only ones I see allow voice (mobile).

I would also like to know which skype someone is using to get video calls. Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks

Dolby
Hello,
my Skype was crashing the tablet too all the time. opening it and chatting with it was fine, but as soon as i did place a call, the tablet restarted.
I deactived Dolby in the Settings, and everything worked as it should.

>I deactived Dolby in the Settings, and everything worked as it should.
Thanks!
Turning off Dolby fixed the garbled sounds that I was getting when making calls with Skype.
Before this, I could hear the lady on Skype test call clearly, but my recording was garbled. (My workaround to this was to plug in a set of headphones when making calls.)
>Skype keeps crashing
>I just got my 2nd A500, installed Skype but it crashes more often than not. If it works then it works fine.
I was having the same issue. Played around with the wifi settings as suggested by ttenani and reinstalled Skype. It has not crashed since.
Spacey1982's suggestion on the Dolby has now fixed my the garbled sounds that I was getting with the mic.
Now, if only Skype would release a version that allows video calls. Otherwise, we should all migrate to Google Talk. (Are you listening Microsoft?)

Thank you so much for this fix and or workaround. I now have Skype YEA!!!!!!! Wow a forum...

Just the fact it's Microsoft is enough reason for me to migrate my family to Google Talk.
