hello
first, I use skype on my hermes 200 adsl connection via a USB or EDGE connection in both cases I had not heard the voice of my interloccuteurs (voice cuts) while they are listening
will become of the weakness of my connection or there a reason?
also, I install skype mobile beta lite (for symbian s60 v.2) on a Nokia N72 to communicate with my hermes 200 but I have not the icon of the call, and in the category of aid on I said that "the call will be possible after the upgrade skype when it will be available in your country"
could I have the icon of the call before skype lite mobile beta is available in my country knowing that they have not yet?
else, the audio chat it was possible between two windows mobile user?
Finally, set apart the MIDs (see here) http://www.intel.com/products/mid/devices.htm , are there other mobile devices capable of video chat skype? if not, they are the other software can do without 3G or wifi, personally I know 5: vochat, octro, tivi, imichat (under symbian), and microsoft portrait
and another that I could not operate: tabletmedia, of whether someone else could get it to tell me how?

Hello,
I'm raising big hopes about the scheduled WM6 upgrade (i'm waiting for the official one, not t-mobile's or russian one) but in the meantime, do you know if there is an working SIP client for my s620 ?
By working, i mean that the audio is correctly routed, I don't want to use an headset.
I've tried fring, skype, bewip, gosip. I don't mind purchasing a piece of software if it work well.
Thanks
as much as i know.. the very best (for the moment) is skype..
and the headset i think it is not big deal to use..
just my opinion..
Oh, pick me! I know the answer! Me! Me! Me!
Well, if you wanna go proprietary, Skype'll do the job. But you want SIP, so that puts Skype right out. The correct answer was Fring™. Fring is a free MSN/ICQ/Skype/SIP client that claims to operate over WiFi and GPRS. I've only tested it over WiFi, and I'm doubtful that GPRS will be enough to make it work right (EDGE, maybe). Thankfully, Fring™ is free, and all you have to do is go to their web site. The entire process can even be done on your phone.
I could never get the WM6 Internet Calling app to work. Others have reported that the connection drops (although the wi-fi connection is still up) after 15 minutes. Another user and myself had the same config (aside from username/password and phone number), his worked, mine didn't.
I installed Fring and its SIP client worked as advertised. Can connect to any voip provider.
(But didn't like the fact I had to create a Fring account even if not planning to use it)

if you check the skype download page you will see that version 2.2 is not supported for trinity, it only allows limited functionality= chats only, no calls... try version 2.1
Hi guys.
All these 3 version that I'm uploading work fine on my device.
Try a softreset and also try a softreset for your router/acess point or whatever gets you online(if u use wifi).
That's what I do,because I use wifi.
Let me know if it works and try out the other versions. ;-)

It didn't work for me on WM5 either. I was lucky to have an older version somewhere.

Running LVSW's WM5 -- Skype 2.2 works fine.
i think there is only problem whith WM6...
Last version not working on 3G phones?
isn't it a bit strange this last version of skype not supporting to place calls in phones with good processor power? Tytn and P3600? It's also strange that the supported HTC phones don't have 3G communications?
My instinct tells me that there is some kind of pressure by mobile network providers for skype not being supported by 3G phones, because people are able to place much cheaper calls than trough the UMTS (3G) provider.
Just a guess...
(Actually previous versions work very well with my trinity either trough wi-fi or 3G)
skype 2.1 works fine
but via 3G in tmobile UK its not possible to make a call...lags are just to big....via WiFi works like a charm...
Anybody get VOIP working on the WM6.1 HP 914c yet? I've installed different VOIP CABs, but till now no succes
Brandnew HP 914c is such a suberb device with all of the specifications, but they removed the WM6 "Internet Calling" function (in contrast till their older device the HP 514 "Voice Messenger" which is made for voip)..
I hope one of the smart developers here will know a solution !
For my HP 914c I succeed with these files:

*Sound loudness is very good (not quiet or so) - by install of just file (1) sound was very quiet!
*Sound by internal speaker, not external (like Fring)
*GPS is working just normally
*I used a HP 914c / product-ID FB052AA#ABH / Productrevisieniveau: 1.0 / ROM-datum: Jul82008 / ROM-revisie: MP-1.00.05 (info HP Asset Viewer)
But:
*WIFI connection is quitting very quickly after no use of the device, so connection to SIP provider is lost. This is very annoyingly because then I am not reachable for others on my SIP number..
Dose someone know a hack for keeping the WIFI online ?
Thanks !
Greetings,
Calls over 3G don't work
I have just another "big" problem to solve:
*Calls over WIFI are just PERFECT (good quality)
*BUT... calls over 3G (UMTS/HSDPA) don't work yet !
*It is possible to call over sip to external numbers (like a landline) > other phone is ringing normally > when other phone picks up there is a connection, BUT no sound.. (dead line, in both directions)
*I am using a 3G data-only card from KPN (Netherlands) and an account from Voipbuster.com for testing
*Looks like data provider blocks port 5060 ?
*When I use same 3G data card and same Voipbuster account, but then by Fring i CAN do a call and it's WORKING
*When I use same 3G data card and same Voipbuster account, but then by my notebook (with the 3G data card in my notebook with a ExpressCard) it is working too !
Very strange huh.... Somebody ?
Hello everyone, we have Time Warner Cable, and Vonage phone. When we are uploading/downloading something on the internet we own a home-based design business, so this happens often, the quality of our calls is horrible sometimes not even able to use the phone. What would fix this…a higher speed internet connection or should we look at switching to a phone line that is not VOIP? Have a nice day.
Hi,
I would like to use my Hermes as a VoIP device via WiFi. To be more precise, I want to use it seriously, not just to play around. The battery time is neglectible, server-side voip configuration and codes can be adjusted.
So far I have seen Schaps WM6.0 Rom, the Voipwm6.cab's, the voip Drivers .cab and destr0`s cab (I have also tested some overfilled Rom Images with Voip support).
My experience so far has been rather disappointing, laggy connections, no reconnecting after Wlan disconnect, lack of speech codecs. This seems surprising to me, as there are other WM6 based devices, with similiar memory and processor power, being marketed as business-VoIP devices (eg. some iPAQs). So, as far as I understand, it should be possible to enable full VoIP functionality, quality and reliability by chosing the right software.
My question:
Is somebody here using VoIP on a Hermes daily? What setup are you using, which drivers did you install? Are there WM6.1 Voip drivers availible? I do not like this mixing up of different library versions, which seems to be popular with the rom kitchens.
SKYPE MOBILE FIND IT ON THE SKYPE SITE THATS what I always use I have millions of enteries and errands to run and I have to meet political connections in other countries and I know this sounds boring but here I am and I have to use VOIP NO JOKE
since you asked.....
I fooled around with the same issue for several months. While Fring and the newest version of skype for ppc both gave good sound quality, I have given up on the issue because of an unacceptable voice delay (~0.5 ). I once thought the issue was related to my internet provider - my current opinion is that this is due windows mobile issues and inadequate processing power. Calling in to a local voip dial-in access telephone # via my hermes did NOT produce the same voice delay, nor did internet skype calling via a wifi connection from my computer. I also got the voice delay when I tried calling via a 3g/umts cellular connection and when using some Viop software found on this site. Finally, using every phone 'tweak' I could find on the internet also did not improve the voice delay, nor did different 'fast' custom ROMs improve the issue. If you/or anyone else ever solves the problem of voice delay on the hermes, I would love to know how.
I've been testing NCH Express Talk: http://www.nch.com.au/talk/index.html + this little utility that forces sound output to the earpiece: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=396829
I haven't done much field testing, but the quality is much better than inbuilt VoIP, works ok over 3G and unlike Fring, the communication between you and your VoIP provider is direct.
Thanks for your replies and sharing your experiences. At least now I do not feel like a complete idiot. The strange thing is that when I tried Voip on Hermes the first times (just with VoIP.cab etc). and connecting directly to a normal provider sound quality was really good and the lag was low. Some hours later it has been bad.
As far as I am concerned, I have also tested agephone (gives you a lot of configuration options) and i will test voipsurfer (uses iax) a bit more as soon as i find some time.
I will not give up now. Among other things I want to look at the network settings of the Hermes (packet size etc.) and test with a lot of free memory.
I am going to keep this thread updated, as soon as I find out more.
Tremere, thanks for the nch hint. The program gave me a warning about my network setup, which may lead to one-way or lagged audio. Hmm...
Voip
Download fring from yr htc install it and insert yr voip account.
It works like charm.

I got around the warning by setting up port forwarding on my router. The audio is fine, both directions work, but the lag is still not acceptable.
I bought a Hermes (8525) about 2 weeks ago and have been trying out different voip methods. Here's my bit:
Skype
+Keeps phone from sleeping so you can always be logged in
+Best sound quality from the ways I've tried
+Very cheap rates for US calls and DID
-Very unstable on my device. I constantly have to soft reset when skype runs
-Skype contacts separate from Hermes contacts
-Speakerphone used by default, which causes bad echoing. Torca2 works to route sound to earpiece, but awkward to start/stop. I haven't managed to get audioswitch to work, which would sort things out.
-Must use +1 on calls, and the + is obnoxious to get to
Fring (with skype)
+More stable, and I can use gmail chat!
+Smoother interface (for me) than skype
-Short to medium delay, enough to be a deal-breaker
-Doesn't stop device from sleeping, so calls in don't work
-Fring contacts separate from Hermes contacts
SIP with Home Asterisk/Sisky-Skype Server
+More control over detailed options
+When at home, great call quality with little delay
+WM6 has built in voip support
+Phone automatically logs into wifi networks and connects back to my home server very well, displays status on today screen
+Hermes contacts dial using voip when available
+Easy to build on and add more phones (mobile and landlines) to the system
-Good quality but bad delay (so far) when connecting remotely through the internet
-Tricky to get set up from scratch
-Requires at least one dedicated server, preferably two
-Sisky enterprise software is proprietary ($60, free 30-day trial)
-Voip stops when the device is in standby. There are supposed to be ways around this but at the cost of battery life. Still testing...
I'm going to try the voip with voipbuster or another provider... but that's next weekend. I'm hoping my home asterisk server pans out, but there's a lot of configurations to learn and perfect.
Here's the link for torca2 again

And audioswitch, which would be a gem if it worked on the hermes

My Daughter and I regular use Skype. She used to have vodafone 1615(HTC kaiser??- tytn11??) and I have TP2 we used video calling alot which was nice.She then upgraded to an HTC HD2, so video calling stopped between us on Skype so we just used normal calling via Skype.
Anyway she has just upgraded her phone again to one which supports Skype video calling(iphone)So I tried to make a Video call on my TP2 and found I couldn`t. So I tried to make a Skype video call to pc and it didn`t work So I thought I would load Skype onto my Android(froyo7) os from the developers here. Unfortunately video calling is not supported on my phone via the Android os.
Sorry this is long winded but I needed to explain it correctly, so my question is can I get an upgrade for my TP2 on windows 6.5 to enable Skype video calling or is ther an upgrade for the Android (froyo7) os on my phone to allow video calling.
cheers in advance.
