Hi,
Maybe i'm missing something. How do I disable the caller ID from saying the callers name (simply not loud enough), and just set it to the ringer tone I orginally had? I ran a search and came up with 1000 hits :roll:. I know there is a simple solution but maybe i'm just blind.
Update: I don't know what is going on now. I managed to get the ringtones to work, but the call ID girls talks at the same time.
What do you mean by that ?
Do you mean to PhotoContacts that can choose ringtone per contacts?
or MS voicecommand ?
MS voice command has nothing to do with it. I mean when a caller calls me, the default ringtone (set to oldring.wma) and the girl's voice telling me who the caller is and where, come on at the same time. I want to disable the girl's vioce altogether leaving me with only the default ringtone.
What I find mysterious is that I have two versions of Caller ID's in the /Windows directory, IA-P_Contacts.exe version 1.17 (build 16895) and PhotoContacts.exe Caller ID version 1.20 (build 17975). When I customize the setting on either version and a person calls me, I can see both custom animated images pop up. As well as the girl's vioce and the ringtone I assigned to a caller.
As of now, I don't know how to turn off the girl's vioce and I have no idea why two custom animated images are showing in the pop up when a caller calls.
I think both IA_contacts and Photocontacts are thesame program but in different version.
If you want to disable one ,you can do it by delete it from \Windows\Startup.
Firstly ,this is an easy way to stop this problem.
In my suggestion, IA_contacts is older version and it cannot assign ringtone per contacts. If you need to use only default ringtone ,you should pick its.
But in Photocontacts which is newer version ,You can assign ringtone per contacts.
Secondly, in your Ext Rom, It may have Two version of CallerID.
To eliminate this problem, You need to edit your Ext ROM and remove one of this.

Thanks for the tips tumtum. This is what I entually ended up doing. More or less per your instructions.
* In Call ID Options (old version), I disabled/ unticked all the available boxes.
* Disabled/ Removed IA_Caller_ID.lnk from the /startup folder
-- reset --
Results: pop up with no images, caller ID girls still there, default ringtone is audable.
This is what I wanted, but is there a way to remove the Caller ID voice girl? The reason why I want to do this is that it the voice and the ringtone cancels each other out in most cases.
PS. It seams that when you go into the Caller ID options, without changing anything, the pop up doesn't want to show anymore and the ringtone isn't audable anymore as well. But the Caller ID girl is still there. It takes a reset to get the functions back.
Man do I want to break up with her. The sooner, the better. :x

Could you capture your screen that you have problm ?
Because I can't undrestand what you mean "caller ID girls".
Perhaps I can help you.

I can do something better. I recorded it with my Sony Ericsson T610. The trick was to convert the amr file to mp3 format because I don't know whether or not you have a player that plays amr files.
When you play it, you will notice a girl telling you who is calling, according to your phone book, and at what number. I want to remove the girl talking.
[link removed]
That's sound like "Microsoft Voice Command".
Because I had used it before.
I'm pretty sure that's MS voice command.
To nomadman
I need you to check something
At Start > Setting > Personal, Do you have voicecammand icon?
If yes ,you can set it by clicking it.
And set option at Phone to Disable speaking the name of Contacts who calling.

OMG! You are so right tumtum 8) . I just didn't realize it was a simple solution. It has been a while since I registered and installed my copy of MSVC and I didn't bother to check the command settings.Man, I sure appreciate your feedbacks on this. You have made a freind for life.
Now, to get back my old setting again. Glad I made a Sprite backup everytime I installed a cab file :lol:. If there is any way I can be of service, hollar at me.
Best regards..
Glad to hear that.
I can do as best as I can do. Because We are friends.

Hi
Quite a while ago i had software on my Symbian OS Nokia that worked as an answer machine. It was great. I have had no luck finding one for the Pocket PC. Has anyone seen one about.
Some key advantages included:
No cost for reteiving messages from the network
Quick access to messages
Multiple answer recording depending on caller and situation ie friend calls answer 'hi man in a meeting leave a message' vs business caller 'Sorry i am in a meeting at moment...'
I have found a couple that uses sms to reply but none that actually record the voice.
Any ideas?

Im sorry, I might not have explained my self. I'm after software that will do voicemail. I want to take a voice recorded message from the caller rather than have it diverted to my network voicemail.
I like the sms idea though and I'm sure the 2 applications could be integrated etc.
Hi
I have been doing a lot of investigation into this subject as i think its a neat idea. I know it has been asked many many many times before in this forum as i have dredged deep into the archives so I'm just wanting to share some info as to what i have found and find out if there have been any new developments since the last relivant posts a few months ago.
I have found this software i used to use called smartanswer for a symbian nokia
http://www.symbianware.com/product.php?id=sanswer60&pl=n6600
So i know it is possible on a similar system but different OS. I haven't managed to found any real reason for it not being able to be done on a pocket pc yet although I'm sure there is a reason or else it would have been created several times over already.
Anyway its just my small blabber wasting time in my lunch break.
phatbloke:
I've been asked about this numerous times, and you say that you've found no good reason why it's not happened yet:
Basically, as I understand it, and I know next to nothing about this area, but basically, the Phone PocketPC is just a pocketpc with an entirely seperate piece of hardware for the phone. The two are independant.
Inorder to control the "phone", the pocketpc comunicates with it through a COM port, sending commands to start calls, data connections etc. However, as I understand it, we have no direct means to access the audio/in out. So, although this is bog standard on many intelligent phones, the pocketpc was never designed around phone hardware, but merely slapped on piggyback.
Being able to record the calls is obviously essential to the answering machine. Some of the clever boys on this site have said that this is impossible or unlikely until we reverse engineer the drivers, and this hasn't happened yet AFAIK. Again, if this is all ball-ocks then someone please correct.
I can monitor missed calls, hangup incoming calls, log all that and so on, but spooling audio in and playing something down the line evades us for now.
Look here towards the end for discussion and futile ideas I had:

and here if you're Italian:

PS if you follow the first thread, someone mentioned that Resco Sound recorder can record both in and outgoing audio on calls. Can you try that software? If that works, it might be possible. But I've seen no verification and don't have the opportunity to check it myself.
Hi all,
I am understanding; Microsoft don't publish some "sensitive" APIs like recording audio from downlink, etc. ..... I am Symbian Software Engineer; That is everyday life for me.
So, while using Symbian, you have the possibility to make requests to Symbian or Nokia for getting access to their internal API. We do that several times... perhaps for muting microphone, GSM trace information, etc. Exists there a business case to get access to Microsofts internal API?
A contact will be very helpfully!
Thanks a lot!

I'm looking to know if the Jabra BT800 is compatible with the Qtek 9000, anyone can help me?
Sorry about the delay, only just noticed this question, yes, the BT800 works with the Universal / XDA Exec / Qtek 9000 I use one myself.
Hi,
I can also confirm the Jabra works fine.

Just the number! MS BT stack doesn't implement this interesting feature.
However you can use the SW on this link http://www.jetwaremobile.com/index.htm from JETware Mobile
Evidence! I saw letters on my JABRA BT800 today!!!

Hi All!!!!
Yes, I saw letters on my JABRA's display after about one year of using this piece of almost useless crap! I have installed the latest version from jetwaremobile.com and it finally works. Previos versions just didn't worked!
(I wouldn't like to describe all issues and low quality if BT800, I just use it in a car to answer urgent calls.)
BUT!
1. If the name in the contact calling you - is not in English - you will see nothing on the LCD Screen;
2. It takes ages the name to appear on the screen (5 rings or more) even if I called few times;
3. It uses Jabra's internal memory to store the contacts. So, if you have 1000+ contacts (like I do), there is no chance to use this feature. (But, you stil can create a separate Category for the hot contacts, and setup jetwaremobile's software discussed here to load only these numbers).
So, All, train your memory and remember all your 1000+ phone numbers yourself
In my case names are displayed quite fast. But I've just a few hundreds of contacts... if it makes the difference.
Also managed to have previous versions working (v1 and v1.11. OK also for 1.20 Beta)
I guess your problem with non English names, means non occidental characters!? Because it is OK with mine and they are not English.
To avoid some potential problems I've ticked in 'Advance options', just what I'm interested in, 'Caller ID'
My only frustration is that I wish large names to scroll, otherwise many contacts seems to be the same...
@dima_the_chief
how can you browse contacts from bt800. I only know about last ten calls are stored in headset.
As for delay this is true but only sometime when devices loose conectivity,usualy works fine for me with xda2 wm2005.

As far as I understood dima, didn't say that.
In fact BT800 doesn't allow to browse contacts stored on device!
then what to understood with:

It means BT800 uses internal memory to keep lookup tables, that would allow to correlate an incoming number, with the correspondent name.
Doesn't mean you can browse the contacts list, from the headset, what in fact you can't.
Most probably it is technically close to be possible, bu it isn't in the feature list or at least implemented so.

No! i CAN NOT BROWSE THE CONTACTS with my crappy-****ty BT800.
But, I can review last 10 incoming calls. I can see names instead of numbers.
There is a compatibility sheet on http://jetwaremobile.com/bthfx/support.htm .
It says that BT 800 only can do a Voice dial, In-band ringtones and the Caller Id.

Why dont you think, BT800 loads the name for the incoming call on demand? That could explain the delay for the Caller Name display on incoming call.

HI All, gabiz_ro!
Sorry for bullshitting you, but my latest investigations shows, that, even the jetwaremobile's SW will try to send all off my 1000+ contacts to the BT800 it wount accept them.
My proposition about storing all the contacts in internal memory of the BT 800 - is wrong.
But, other BT headsets still can do that! And those devices can browse the phonebook. Like Parrot 3200 LS doest. But, it has a limitation of contacts to load. In this case you have to create a Hot Contacts cathegory in your contacts.
Hope this post gave clearance on the subject.

warn the newbies -- DONT purchase JABRA BT 800
Hi All!
With this post I would like to warn the newbies against purchasing the JABRA BT 800.
Guys!!!!!!!! Spend some time and find another product!
More reliable, stable and usefull!!! You will NOT meet your challenge with purchasing this useless crap!
After using for about a year of BT 800, I have finally got it bricked.
I would not like to discribe here my unseccessful experience of using it for a year, will only descirbe the technological issues in the product.
The main buttons stopped responding to my presses. As the warranty is almost not working in my place, I tryed to repair the device myself.
The reason was - the tailanted chaineese engineer's solution to use the small ****ty piece of the plastic as a spring for the buttons. Of course after the year of rare using, this plastic part was broken, preventing the microswitch to be pushed.
Had to change the button's design and introduce the spiral spring to make it working again.
Sorry for the technical details, ALL, just do not buy BT 800 not to be concerned to the subject.
Yes, I am a strong man, and have weight down the buttons, especially when JABRA do not respond to my pressings during the incoming calls (How many of them I lost thanks to BT 800!!!!!).
How will I live further? Will buy an expencive but more reliable kar kit to use in a car and will continue using just a plain Uni for regular calls.

JetWare Works on MDA but...
I like this program and all but before installing it, I used to be able to hear my actual phone ringing instead of it just ringing in my Jabra BT800 headset. I can't seem to figure out how to have them both ringing, any suggestions?

Just not possible. It is the normal behaviour JetWare implemented, just like that.
See their answer I received this week about the same question, bellow.
"The behavior you observe, of the ring going only to the headset when “Use phone ringtones” is checked, is expected behavior."
Does anyone have the tekkeon ez 3000 with the Jetware app using the Universal? Any comments?

Does this mean that when you are reviewing the 10 incoming calls you see names instead of numbers? I can see only the numbers despite that I use jetware so I see the names when the call is coming in.
Hello All,
Would anyone know of such feature. in the nokia e90 there is a feature that when the person gets a phone call it speaks out the contact name using a voice does any one if there is the same is available for hermes, thank you all for all the great efforts
microsoft voice command does this however it is a big file if thats all your after. it also reads out messages...
Different than Micorosoft Software
Thanks, I am aware of this Microsoft Software, but I guess you have to record the contact name using your voice? in the new nokia you dont have to do so
"I guess you have to record the contact name using your voice"
No, if the number is in your cantacts with a name then it will tell you that "whoever" is calling.
I like MS VC as it allows anyone to use voice commands to call or bring up apps without you having to record ANY voice tags.
Cheers...
I was wondering if anyone knows if the TP2 had the capabilities to have a different ringtone for each person so that when they call AND text it is the same ringtone for that specific contact, instead of defaulting back to the main ringtone for texts. I have tried searching for this on google but I have only found solutions for this problem if I have a blackberry. For example, I would like Song A to play for Person A when they text AND call. I would like Song B to play for Person B when they text AND call. Right now all it will do is to play Song A when Person A calls and Song B when Person B calls. When either Person A or B texts me, it will play Song C. Is there something I am missing on what to do to fix this? Is there a setting I can change or is there a hack that I can use? Any help is appreciated.
PhoneAlarm lets you assign custom tones based on email or SMS subject & sender.
(I'm starting to feel like a shill for PA, but it is the only thing I have to contribute at this point.)
There is no "built-in" method for setting per-person Text ringers. (I used to have this feature on VzW's "The V" a few years back, and haven't seen it built-into a phone since).
As the other poster mentions, there are various applications that can be installed after-the-fact to provide this feature for each contact for text messages.
Definitely need to try PhoneAlarm myself... hadn't seen that one yet.
