I want use the WM6 VoIP (with lVSW ROM). I install the voip cab and the settings for my provider.
The question is: how can I receive calls? how can I make calls? I not find any dialpad or similar to make it.
Thanks a lot and sorry for the offtopic.

If I understand you correctly, you want to know how to make a call after getting your VOIP settings. Actually, there is no separate dial-pad for a VOIP call - you have to use the existing dial-pad which you would normally use when making a cellular call.
If you have set up your VOIP settings correctly, your plug in on your Today screen should say "your VOIP service:Available or Searching" instead of Internet Calling : Available/Not Available.
In my case, I use Gizmo, so it says Gizmo:Available (when it's not connected) and Gizmo:Searching (when connected via wifi).
When it says Searching, you click on the plug-in, then go to your normal dialing pad where it should also say "Gizmo" on the top right hand corner to indicate that WM6 is using VOIP instead of GSM to make the call.
Hope this helps.
As I am a noobie, I would appreciate it if the senior members could either confirm the above or correct anything which is wrong above.

This is the correct "Usage Instructions" for voip.

This is also how I experienced it. Voip only connects through WIFI, although I have made the registry changes as mentioned in another thread. It will be nice if you can select which service to use eg. VOIP or GSM

what if i want not use voIP but my gsm network to call. there is isnt any option to do that once you setup voip. you can disable it but thats not the point. nokia's give you option. am i wrong?

Just tap the today screen item for it toggles between VoIP and GSM

ok... lots of speculation here. Let me tell you what I know:
VoIP, when properly installed, works in the following manner. (If you can't obtain these results then your ROM needs upgrading or your provisioning is incorrect).
Initially, the Internet Calling today screen plugin will show "off" when VoIP is set to "Never" in the Internet tab of phone settings.
When connected to WiFi, you can change this setting to "whenever available". At this point, a properly provisioned VoIP installation will show your VoIP provider from the provisioning XML and "Searching". Shortly after, "Searching" will change to "Selected". At this point all outbound calls placed from your phone will be through your VoIP provider. In fact, the phone skin will show this name too.
However, your phone will ring for incoming calls made to your GSM phone number as well as your VoIP phone number
Now, tapping "Selected" on the Today screen VoIP plugin will change this status to "Available".
At this point, outbound calls get placed through your GSM provider again and the phone skin will show your GSM provider name.
However, inbound calls to both your GSM and VoIP numbers will still ring on your phone.
Turn off VoIP again by going to phone settings and changing the calling network to Never.
Additional notes:
The "Searching" forever behavior previously described is a Bug in some WM6 releases. lvsw 4/23 doesn't have this issue.
You can also set VoIP to work over 3G as well as WiFi by removing the values "1" and "2" in HKLM\Comm\RTC\AdapterTypes. However, there are issues with this that haven't been fully resolved yet. Incoming calls work fine but the called party can't hear you when you place an outgoing VoIP call over 3G.

so there is no way to do this
dial a number select or even press voip button and you dial via voip.
i hate symbian but i might just have to carry to phones because voip enabled nokias can do it.

hmmm maybe you didn't understand. Sorry about that. Short answer is No, there is a way to do this. You can dial any way you want with VoIP active. Just toggle the today setting between "Selected" or "Active" to choose which to use.

Computer to computer calls
I was wondering if there could also be made computer-to-computer-calls. Is there a way to enter 'voip-names' instead of phone-numbers?

at&t CallVantage
How about those of us on Cingular or "The New at&t" is it possible to subscribe to the at&t VoIP service called CallVantage and then get it working on the Hermes?

@tembares:
You *could* try calling directly to the other phone's IP address. the default dialplan supports this. use the following syntax (example assumes you're calling a phone whose address is 192.168.0.1):
192*168*0*1
@brandyholt:
If the AT&T Callvantage service supports a SIP based softphone then the answer is yes.

Thanks a lot Sleuth255 and all people answer to me.
Finally I have been able to make work it!!!!!
@Sleuth255
One question please, if 192.168.0.1 is 192*168*0*1, how I dial for call to an SIP address, for example my gizmo address [email protected]

Well, as you may have noticed I've found those threads, but I saw that the most of the thread is regarding HERMES.
I was wondering if anyone with an Artemis has been able to turn on VOIP (native voip)
I did manage to install the package as mentioned in the threads above, as well as put in the right config files. Also, the "Internet Calling: Available" today plugin is correctly displayed. However, I cannot switch dial pads and I don't get the correct status (connected).

Same problem here
Setup was done with Sip Config Tool 2.0.1
The plugin is configured : "Always, if available"
When connected by wlan or activesync the plugin displays : "Kein Empfang"
Disconnected from network displays : "Available"
Hopefully someone can help me

Guys I've got it working just fine on an xda orbit. There does seem to be a little bug though and that is when it's says "Searching" and "Available" on the today screen. Available actually means searching and searching means available
When searching is displayed, click on it in the today screen and you might notice a slight change in the signal which means it has switched to voip rather than gsm. Go to the phone screen and you'll see that the network has changed to your voip provider and any call you make will be routed through them.
I have downloaded sjphone yesterday and configured it to use my sip voip provider and it works brilliantly. The sound quality in sjphone is absolutely brilliant compared to the native voip, you should try it.

Finally it's working...
I tried to deinstall the plugin and after prompting an error it worked
The homescreen plug signals "searching" but as you said before it means "availabe". There are still a couple of things:
1) no incomming calls... i can't find the stun settings
2) +4930xxxxxx format doesn't work, i've to type 030xxxx
3) doesn't work after standby
Which version of sjphone are you using? There seems to be nothing available for wm 6

Hi BlueD,
I'm glad it's working for you. I tested incoming calls and that worked nicely as well without configuring any stun. The voip I used were sipgate and callcentric.
There's a post somewhere on one of the big voip threads and the guys managed to customize the dialing plans so that you can dial without using the international format. Do a quick search on voip dialing plan and you should find it somewhere.
Well obviously it doesn't cause the wifi disconnects, hence making it only useful for dialing out rather than receiving calls, except ofcourse if you want to leave the device on all the time, but that's not a very feasible solution.
The sjphone I downloaded was the one for v.1.60.303c Pocket PC 2003SE, it works nicely with excellent call quality. I also think you don't really need native voip capabilities to run that, which makes me think we could have had this on WM5 hmmm...

OK.. just fyi - i got a little bit more success in using the native VOIP solution. I had to flash from the WWE 6 to the BnB 2 ROM, then install the VOIP.cab and SipConfigTool. Now i can receive calls, but cannot place any... not sure why. Also, when i receive a call the sound is CRAP.. probably some codec issue here.

What type of internet connection have you?
Have you open ports on your router necessary for SIP, inbound and out?

Yep I did. I got this confirmed by testing it with a softphone on my PC, which works great (same voip provider etc).

Problem with new WM6.1 ROM

Hey everyone, got a quick question.
I just finished installing the WM6.1 ROM for my T-Mobile dash, and it looks really nice. Everything is working fine, but I have two small problems.
The first thing is that for some reason, my phone wants to put a + in front of all outgoing calls. So if i make a contact in my address book with the phone number of 212-555-1212 and try to call them, the phone places the call as +2125551212 and I get an error from tmobile saying that 'The international phone call you are trying to make cannot be completed...' I realize that + denotes the international dialing prefix, and I can get around it by setting up all my contacts with a '1' before the area code, but there has to be a simpler solution as this was not the case with the original rom. If I dial a number normally, it doesn't put the + before it. Any ideas?
Lastly, I am having a hard time finding out how to disable the JOGGR from doing in-call volume adjustments. While I like it for scrolling, I find it really annoying in phone calls as it is constantly missreading my face as my finger and adjusting the volume up and down. In the original t-mobile rom there was an option under settings for it, but I can't see it in the new rom. I went into the registry editor and tried disabling one function that looked like what I wanted to turn off, but it didn't work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
-James

No idea about the + but the JOGGR disable is still in the Settings. It is on the 3rd page, #3 JOGGR.

Thanks for the reply. Yeah, I am able to disable the JOGGR completely using that, but I was hoping for a way to use it for scrolling, but not for volume control.
In regards to the + problem, I went through every option in Settings and couldn't find anything. All the Regional information is correct. I even used the RegEditor to search for + in the entire registry, and it came up with nothing relevant.... Weird. Especially because even if this is an international version, there shouldn't be a + in front of all calls by default, because that would force an international call no matter what country you are in...

Well, I think that it fixed it self in regards to the + problem. Even though I had done so before to no success, figuring that it is running a Microsoft product, a couple of reboots later and it seems to have gone away. Hopefully this isn't a bug that will continue to resurface or is the tip of a larger iceberg.

Just FYI, the + is the prefix for international dialing. If you input all your contacts as +1-404-555-1212 you won't have the problem (1 is the country code for the USA). Another plus to this method is that, if you should go outside the US to a country that uses the GSM network, you can dial your contacts directly via whatever carrier you're on there.

For guys girls who didnt know about RemoteTracker - Antitheft software by Joubert

Guys/Girls since we are equipped with an expensive piece of phone i guess this software is very useful! After all its Totally FREE!
Check it out! it is released by a guy called "Joubert Vasconcelos"
on XDA he is known as 'joubertvasc'!
I guess we all should have this on our HDs i have on mine already totally awesome and working!
this is where you can download the app.
http://remotetracker.sourceforge.net/
this is where you find support
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=394203
A word from the Original Site:
"This is an Antitheft software and you can use it to track your Windows Mobile device when it was lost or stolen.
It works catching a formated SMS sent from any phone, MSN, AIM or web sites and then send useful informations back. These informations can have GPS coordinates, list os contacts, owner informations and more.
You can use it to others objectives, like keep your eyes in your child. Use your imagination!
To use all features RemoteTracker has, your device must have GPS and GSM capabilities. If your device does not have a built in GPS receiver, you can get the position based on the Cell Tower it is answering. Please visit OpenCellClient project for more details.
If the thief change your SIM card, you will receive a SMS alerting you and you still can track your device. All you need to do is set an emergency cel number."
Enjoy!

i've been using this app.. really great stuff

UPS this is COOOL !!
I am always hanging around with an expensive piece of hardware, you´re damn right !!!
This will help to make me feel more comfortable with my SEX1

Yeah they should actually. the guy who made this app is even giving out code to have it cooked in Roms.
My only question is even if they do cook this into roms, after a hard reset by the guy who steals the phone how will the settings be loaded again to the program? (such as the Number to SmS) hmm.. if they have a workaround on this too it will be so great!

for true tracking & protection and to be "cookable" it needs to be stupid on the device. By that I mean all it knows how to do is call home and report the phone IMEI & Location info. For example:
On hard reset it is set to run as a service in the background.
On New SIM Detection it calls home and report phone number & IMEI.
Server side has info for registered owener of the IMEI. Forwards the message to your e-mail.
If the phone was taken you can send SMS to the number to enable "active tracking" which sends location reports to home on a regular interval. All message sent home are forwarded to registered owner.
If a developer did this they might even be able to make a deal with providers so that the Call Home function is directly to the carriers and it gets built into the Stock Roms.

I use Sprite Terminator. Has the option to remove all your important data.

Usefull thread. but only missing small how to cook this into the touch diam/pro or HD ROM. The main problem is how to make that shortcut fo SMS

[Q] Native VOIP support

Doesn't the GNEX have built-in VOIP support?
My old HTC Desire with Oxygen ROM (AOSP 2.3) had this.
I assumed ICS would have it too, but I don't find anywhere to enter the sip key and password....

No it does not.

Aww, that sux.
Does any of the roms offer this?

nxt said:

SIP accounts have been natively supported since Gingerbread.
In ICS go into phone -> Menu -> Settings -> Internet call settings.
You can set up your SIP account there and call settings (when to use, receive incoming, etc).

Hm, yeah thats what I thought too, but I don't see any "Internet call settings" in the setup menu on my GNEX 4.0.2.

Anybody want to recommend a good SIP service and say a little about them? Currently I am using GrooVe IP + Google Voice but who knows what is going to happen now that Google has screwed them over..

I was recommended sipgate.com and terrasip.com by friends. Not much experience with them yet but I was told they are good.
From my own experience, avoid voipdiscount.com, awful call quality.

SipGate is not going to work for me, at least for the time being.
Thank you for your interest in sipgate!

CallCentric

didlogic.com
Few people know about this provider because they mostly sell to other companies but their quality and rates is second to none. I pay $6/monthly and use the native sip feature. works like a charm.

Can anyone explain in a few words what is the difference between DID and SIP and VOIP.
I live in Thailand. I'd like to be able to let people call a number somewhere in Europe or US and have that redirect to my mobile here. Obviously with as low cost as possible.
I'd also like to be able to call people worldwide without spending an arm and a leg. That is what a SIP provider provides, correct?
I guess to get a number somewhere I need to find a DID provider able to provide the number in that country, right? And I'd still need some way to carry the call from the DID to me? Do I understand this right?
Unfortunately the international Internet connectivity from here isn't too good, so I thought perhaps it would be best to get a SIP provider here? Or does that not make any difference?
Sorry if this is going somewhat off topic, but since you guys seems to know this stuff and the OP (my) question has been answered I guess it's ok

Anyone know of a way to set it to only use internet calling when you are on wifi? It is pretty pointless for it to use 3g or LTE for internet calling...
Thanks

SIP is a protocol for VOIP (Session Initiation Protocol).
A DID is a direct inward dialing number (a telephone number).
Normally with a sip provider you don't get a DID. You receive calls at [email protected] This does not allow a standard phone to call you, just other SIP clients.
There are various services (and some SIP providers) that will allow/grant a DID to send a call to a SIP service. You can get a DID with Sipgate or use a service such as IPKall to get a DID and forward the calls placed to that DID to your VOIP/SIP provider (which will then ring your phone).
