Hi, I'm looking at the various WM6 releases and I'm trying to understand how much functionality for VoIP exists in these ROMS, and what is required to get it working.
From the various reviews on WM6, when Internet Calling is correctly installed it seems to appear as an additional "Internet" tab under phone settings as well as being integrated with the WM6 dialer. I also belive that MS also provides additional hooks for developers (such as dialing third party dialer from Contexts with SIP dial strings).
Looking at the XDA Live version (screen shots only as I'm running a different ROM), it looks like it has the "Internet" tab under Phone Settings for Internet Calling, although people have indicated the functionality is not working. Is this a dialer integration issue then?
I have the LVSW ROM running on my Hermes (great ROM BTW ) and I don't even get the "Internet" tab.
So:
- Can anybody upload the standalone related components such as VoIP.cab, WM6 dialer (not just the skins) along with corresponding registry settings to switch to the correct dialer.
Update: Found the VoIP cab in FTP, was only recently added. still looking for additional info
- Is there any additional info/posts/sites/wiki that can shed more information on this?
At the moment I'm using a thirdparty SIP application that works well, but it has poor integeration with the OS. I've tried other SIP apps.
On the same thread, has anybody tried the dialer/SIP by BeWIP?
Update: Also saw this thread over on the Wizard forum

patience.... patience....
well, I think this thread might be a good thread to collect information on this topic.
I would also like to have Internet (SIP) calling from WM6
I currently use SjPhone and it is fine but it really has no integration with the OS.
So the greatest addition of WM6 voip calling feature would be integration.
However, it should be highly customizable (sip server selection, codec selection etc.)
Can we make this thread sticky ? I think Golfman has collected some important links under his post.
Have you guys tested Skype? I did and it worked quite all right.

Skype is Voip but not SIP. Some of us would love a nicely integrated SIP client.
I'm using Skype and X-Pro now, but i would prefer a real built-in SIP Client.
Perhaps it isn't that hard to get it running...
I also use Octrotalk. That's googletalk for WM5
It really works fine with voice.
But that's not SIP again.
We really miss an integrated sip client which can be customizable like SJphone.
Perhaps a sticky thread on this issue would help us but no one makes that.
Sleuth... you not sharing something you found?
I'm curious about something.
The one thing I don't like about Skype is because it doesn't allow me to use my bt headset. Now this VOIP that would be intergrated in wm6 does anyone know if it will let you use bt headset like with regular phone calls?
I mean is this basicly like Skype where you can make free phone calls? If you have unlimited data of course..
Just curious
Skype and misc VoIP...
I run X-Pro at the moment as my SIP client, I used SJPhone and had to do some tweaking to stop the voice jitter - XPro just seems to work better.
On WM6 and "Internet Calling", I've tried some of the xml settings but no dice at the moment - I've not enough time to really go through the M$ docs its a bit of a paper blizzard.
I'm personally not a fan of Skype for several reasons.
-READ THE SMALL PRINT OF THE EULA, ESPECIALLY REGARDING BEING MADE A SUPERNODE
- Its a closed protocol
- Only allows single session
I like SIP, however it does have some NAT issues
One thing that I was disappointed when I got my Hermes phone and I'm not sure if anybody can come up with a solution. Once the phone goes into standby, the Wi-Fi radio turns off to save power. Therefore unless a SIP call is coming in on a Cellular data-plan, the SIP client only works when you want to make a call - would be nice if the built in WM6 client had true radio integration, it might just not be possible unless you want a dead battery real fast.
I was hoping to be able to use my Cell Phone as a cordless in the house (connecting to my SIP server in the house). Dedicated SIP Wi-Fi phones are still way to expensieve.

I just tried several Wm6 roms on both my Trinity and Hermes. It seems all the new RTM roms now work correctly with the earpiece speaker using VOIP on the Hermes, this is using CUSTEL VOIP.cab and/or built in VOIP in the various Hermes RTM roms. However on the Trinity we get no sound alot of times, and when we do it sounds on the back speaker and doesnt work with bluetooth unlike the hermes. ANyone know why this is?

not sure... how about asking on the trinity forums instead of the hermes forums ???
Both Hermes and Trinity are amongst the supported devices in AGEphone Mobile 2.5 Speakerphone Edition! Forget about the crappy internal client and use a real softphone
VOIP Blutooth Hermes
I got a Herme's and i Just got VOIP to work. (SIP, Vbuzzer)
but when i dial out with it, i dont have any sound comming through my Bluethooth headset
(Blacks 3.1 rom)
To make your BT-headset work with the current version of AGEphone, please follow the following instructions:
There is no official support for Bluetooth Headsets yet, but you can make most of them work with AGEphone using a little hack. There is no need to change the audio device in AGEphone for this at the moment. You only have to use a little tool called "BTAudioToggle.exe". For further information about this utility please refer to this thread. The package you can download there contains "BTAudioOn.exe" / "BTAudioOff.exe", but using "BTAudioToggle.exe" does the job just fine. Once you have downloaded the utility please go to "Settings - Other" and give AGEphone the path to the "BTAudioToggle.exe" file there for "Execute on Connect" and "Execute on Disc." without any further parameters. If your BT headset is paired properly with your phone AGEphone will automatically switch output and input to the device whenever you accept a call. It's probably of note that BTAudioToggle.exe only works with the Microsoft Bluetooth Stack.
This allows you to use the headset not only with AGEphone Mobile but any other program. I hope it helps!
hi all,
i'm having issues with my agephone mobile 2.64. i'm connecting it with gizmo5 and grandcentral and my hermes.
i call grandcentral, agephone shows that it has a call (no sound), i accept (still no sound), press one (cause i know i need to press 1), then the call connects.
but there is no audio in both ends, i can't hear the other side and i can't talk to the other side.
any one know if a way to fix this?
Earpiece workig ?
The new version is here:
[APP][FREE] audioRoute 1.2.010 for VoIP

Hi,
I am using the Dopod WM6 ROM with MajikVOIP.cab, VOIP Drivers.cab and SetupVoIP_v0.3.
VoIP works OK but with bursts of crackling from the loudspeaker so are there any other alternatives to the above for getting VoIP working that I could try?
Also, are there any VoIP add-ons that allow the setup and quick switching between multiple SIP accounts?
For what it's worth, I have also tried the beta version of SJPhone's VoIP software for WM5 and it works very well, but it's obviously not as tightly integrated as using add-ons to the core OS.
Thanks
As some of you may know, VOIP is possible with our phone, but require a VOIP cab, and editing a file to enter the SIP settings. Or, alternatively, there are a few applications out there like Skype, or Fring.
But the universal problem for all implementations thus far is that they all route the sound out the speaker on the back of our phone!
Today I came across BT Total Broadband Anywhere: http://www.productsandservices.bt.com/consumerProducts/displayTopic.do?topicId=24561
This service clearly uses VOIP!
Obviously BT has fixed this problem! So two questions:
Could any of the ROM hackers here extract the fix for the rest of us to use?
Can a BT user with this service test Skype and see if the speaker problem exists?
Thanks!

BT Voice over internet is lame, you can hardly hear people, it cut's out during calls etc.
I have just reset my phone from BT due to bad programming on BT's behalf, so no voip i can live without, battery life was lame 2.
Yeah, but those issues may just be with BT's implementation of VOIP. Can you remember if when you were on a voip call the sound was correctly routed through the earpiece? our longstanding issue is that the sound was coming out of the back of hte phone (speaker) and thus voip caloing was useless in public places.

It was proper routed through the earpiece.
With AGEphone Mobile 2 Speakerphone Edition there is no need to worry about this in the long run: We are planning to add support for the internal speaker to all relevant devices!
I was searching this forum for VoIP/SIP on TP2. Has anybody some experience on this?
Here is my adventure:
I found a wiki link at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=VoIP_on_Windows_Mobile_6
Apparently the topmost cab and also the one on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=596682 kill the GPS capability, which is a no go.
Thus I installed cab from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2497988&postcount=8 , and configuration for Gizmo5 http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=VoIP_Provisioning_XML_WM6
I was able to get "Internet Call: Available" only once, and even then an international call was done as regular. Now it's always unavailable.
I know fring is available, but is a resource hog
Any ideas?
Skype 3.0 for Windows Mobile works perfect on my TP2. However, there is an audio cab you have to run to make it behave correctly; the info can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=498166
Yes, I have skype.
Sorry I was not clear enough in the initial post. I need to have SIP support.
