Hang up
I think these two programs have one problem. When you set one number to hang up before that the person who call you listen one free ring and then busy, which is in my opinion not so kindly.Except this they are good soft.Unfortunately i've been tried and others applications like magicall,no calls, callblock and they have the same problem.

thanks guys

i have this two

02. No calls

How to find out received SMS sender's number

Is there a way to find out from which number has an sms arrived, when more than one number is associated with the sender?

Nice question!
This happens because of microsoft: They do not understand that in other countries, unlike the United States, pepople have more that ONE mobile phone..
So they don't handle this situations.
I solve in a silly way.. But i don't have evidence that works: i simply replay to the sms.. And I see what number it uses for destination.

Ohh I see.
If it really uses the number in the reply which was used to send the sms, then it is a good workaround.
But we cannot be sure, can we?
Maybe someone has already made a simple app/plugin/whatever to find out the number or something?

It's no different from replying to an email when sender has more than one email address in your Contacts - your reply goes back to the address the sender used to send the original message. It's behaviour by design.

I was farting around the other day and came across an app that (if I recall correctly) does that. I am really sorry because I cannot remember the name of the program, but I will try to re-trace my farting around and if I come across it, I'll post back here.

Ok, thx!

voice to text - "Sim free" -HTC say NO!

i email HTC to ask if the voice to text feature was disabled on the Sim Free version of the Desire and this is the response i got....
Thank you for your enquiry about voice to text.
Well the device does have voice to search via Google, so it should do. The only thing is you'll probably have to install some apps from market on the Device, hope this helps..

So any one with the desire ATM does the above work? (i.e voice to search) i find the answer vague so i have asked for a yes or no answer to the question i asked. i quoted the desirehtc website where it states this feature will be available.
if anyone else has emailed HTC on this subject i would be interested in the response you got.
UPDATE
HTC have now resopnded with a Simple "NO" you will have to use a 3d party App.

no voice search here.
cos it's using the HTC IME, it is missing the microphone key that you get on the Android keyboard to use the voice to text functions.
whoever answered that at HTC obviously didn't have one to hand to check and was probably looking at the nexus....

Afternoon all,
After enabling the 'Voice to Text' as shown on How To Enable Voice To Text using one of the links on page 2 I have now got Google search by voice working on a T-Mobile Desire.
You don't have to change over to using the android keyboard if you don't want to use the main voice to text functionality, but now pressing and holding the search button brings up a pop-up on screen with 'Speak Now - Google Search' and a microphone symbol.
Seems to work fine to me.

works fine for me too.

Maybe it's coming in another update, this is from the htc website desirehtc dot com
" Android 2.1...
What's that all about then?
Launched in January 2010, and known in the trade as Eclair, this is basically an update to the operating system. In laymans terms, it's a sexier looking interface. But it's not quite that simple.
Now, for example, your Wallpapers can be animated, injecting your screen with a new lease of life. This works particularly well with the AMOLED screen.
Rather excitingly, it brings us into a realm where voice-to-text is a reality in all text fields. Imagine sending texts or emails simply by talking to your phone. Now do it, we're there. "

I'm sorry but voice search has always been there...

Cheers mate... great help, 1 more reason 2 love Desire...

Back to my orignal post.....
HTC tell me the voice - search is available by default (i.e not installing any other SW) they say it has to be enabled in settings then it work when using the search key/menu?
any one confirm this?

Actually, I also got a similar answer from HTC. I'm from Singapore though. Thus, most likely it is an unlocked version. My question was:
"Does the HTC Desire support the speech-to-text function out of the box? Does it also support AVI files? Thank You."
This is what i got.
"Thanks for contacting HTC.
For HTC Desire, it does have the function for Speech-to-text, but it doesn't support AVI file.
Thank you for your continuous support of our products and services. Should you require further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us again.
We look forward to be of service to you again."
From this reply, it seems obvious what the answer is. But the truth, from those who already got the phone, are far from it. I had specifically said out of the box. But, as told by owners, you need to download apps and everything for this function. Just FYI, I do not own the Desire...yet XD

HTC says NO! to voice enabled in default.

[BETA] SpeechyVTS

A translator you can really talk to, literally. Say what you need and Speechy VTS will translate and speak out loud what you said in English for others to know what you really need or if you're just trying to learn the language to prepare for your trip.
So when you're at the Airport and no one speaks English and you don't know the native tongue, you can say "How do I get to Terminal B" and know someone who speaks Spanish, Japanese, Chinese, or French can help.
Currently in BETA and as we've encountered 1-error out of 10 so far, we may be needing more testers but on a non-AT&T Network. If you're interested, please let me know as we will contact you if you're deemed needed.
Thank you all for our continued support by XDA and it's users, YOU!

Nice app, but I have question: Does app supports other languages, or only those listed ?

Hi Budniu,
Currently at the time of the screen shot, those were the only languages supported but we've now migrated to a whole new speech service that is using a speech server hosted in the cloud...
We we're trying to make it a non-net connected App but we've gotten requests/concerns wanting other languages like Babel fish, Bing & Google Translators offer.
Good thing is, we don't make App's around us and what we want. We make what YOU, the users want and that is our main goal.

That is so terrific to hear! We can't wait for you to try it out too and see what you think about it...
Unfortunately though, an automatic closing issue kept occurring on non-US Phone Carriers using SpeechyVTS 0.0.6B. Everyone who got a pre-existing copy, including USA has been asked to please remove from his/her phone, just temporarily.
Good news is, we've spotted the error and I think pretty much done but just want to make sure it's workable and stays loaded before allowing even US users access once again... We will notify you ALL immediately and update the screen shot.
I appreciate your message as it's nice to know we have others interested!

Hi Diboze,
We certainly do. New Artwork is being applied and version 0.0.9B will hopefully be made available tonight.
Once everything is encrypted and ready for release we will let you and others who are interested aware.

0.0.9B
Speechy: VTS got a bit of a face-lift... Here she is! Now with a iPhone "like" scroll list to easily scroll through the list of languages and the list acts just like an iPhone list as it can be flicked and extra "cushion" to the top and bottom of the list when you pull/scroll through it...
Icon's/Tiles are being revamped... All those who were interested in testing, you'll be notified.
Thank you,
Lance

Hello,
With the new update, all testers are desired. We've changed how Speechy works almost entirely as for functionality to try and make it, without sounding too rude, idiot proof.
I will notify you once the file is encrypted and ready for export.

BETA Requests ENDING!
I would like to thank EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU, you've all been great and have made this very exciting for us.
However, we've gotten an outrageous amount of requests which will be ending, tonight. We will not be allowing anyone else as of 11/23/11 - 9:45 PM PDT. Very sorry but as we didn't want to turn anyone down, we got mass amounts of requests!
Q: Will you have any other BETA's?
A: Yes! We're actually fixing it up for the 3rd BETA release but making this public, just like this as it seems to be AMAZING people wishing to try our stuff.
Q: ... But will it be Voice Enabled?
A: Actually, it is... The App is named TESA (The Extremely Smart App) and it is our take on the ever so popular iPhone 4GS Plugin, Siri.
Q: Is it just like Siri?
A: No. TESA is programmed with a hundred+ (or will be) options/functionality and really to be used to help those who are blind or bad vision and additionally for general use of course.
Q: Hundred options? Doesn't sound like much!
A: It is quite a bit but that's ok as we're making this a public TODO List where you the users get to help add functionality in to an App. With a simple form, submit a desired task OR word/phrase/etc and could be added and in some cases (if verified) instantly!
As for TESA, we'll need a valid Full Name, Zipcode and Email but not everyone will be elected to try it unfortunately and please wait until the thread for it is created before requesting to help.
Thank you all yet again!
Sincerely,
Lance

Quick question: it will be a free/ad-based app, or paid?
For promoting (so aggressively) commercial app you should pick another forum, AFAIK...

It will be free. If you wish to have the entirely other edition with OCR translations included (not shown), that will be paid. TESA will be free as well, maybe a popup but doesn't seem logical since really no UI for it and can use Bluetooth to use it.

I forgot to ask... Which forum should I be directed to for my commercial apps?

[Q] SMS call reject

Hello,
Is it possible to customize the pre-defined SMS messages with which you can reject calls? As most calls that I get are from Swedes it feels silly to send them English language "can't answer right now" messages. Typing a new "non-canned" message every time is not an option. Especially as there is no Swedish spell-checker in ICS yet...
Grateful for any help/M

Yes, there is. Google is your friend

Still, the manual doesn't have a lot of information. I think it's up to you to explore the phone (and this forum) to discover the nice things inside.

Many thanks forumache. /M
