I would like to use my XDA to FAX directly to any number. Not using any kind internet service like printeron.com
Do the T-Mobiles have this capability?
Thanks in advance.

There's a program called 'KSE TrueFax' for PocketPC. It was made to talk to Hayes modems, but they did create a version for this device. It never really left beta though, since (my guess), there were too many different ROM versions with different RIL-dll properties, and too many providers, like O2-nl , block fax calls for some yet-to-be-understood reason.
Modem for FAX???
Does the XDA comes with a modem integrated or not, I would like to send my faxes just dialing to a fax number directly from my xda, without using external modems or things like that.
Yes, there's an integrated modem. But normally, applications can only talk to it using a mechanism called 'TAPI'. It is also a hayes modem, but only if you use some special tricks.
What application would you like to use to send the faxes?
I will use any application that you tell me, I have a T-Mobile
PPC Phone.
I already downloaded the KSE but as a Hayes Modem it goes straight to find a com port.

I have been using O2 xda Truefax ver. 2.03.03 for sending and receiving fax. You can download it at www.myxda.com
You will need to activate a fax line with your provider.
The only problem is that it would not auto answer and turn off the phone while execution. Once the operation is completed, the phone will come on again. Very inconvenient if you have pin on. I find that sending fax is ok but very bad success rate on receiving.
Hope this help.
Thanks but this only works with CABLES attached to my XDA, I am looking to send a fax at a construction site where there are no cables. I would like to use my XDA as a stand alone solution. I HATE CABLES. I need to know how to set it up to send faxes, I would like to know the TRICKS.

Hi, I forgot to mention, it is a software, no cable needed. Download the trial version. So far it keeps my job going when I needed an urgent fax.
You need to activate a fax line with your mobile phone provider, similar to your data line ( not land line !). It is quite cool.
How do you set the phone to work?, which modem?, any special preferences?.
Thanks

This version of TrueFax is specially designed for O2 xda. You do nothing, it will port itself to Com#2, and set the strings. You just fax !
Down load the trial, I am sure you will be delighted.
You must have fax feature activated by your mobile provider. They will assign you a different mobile fax number.

Hi cchia,
Which mobile phone provider you are using now? :?:
I am using MAXIS fax service. And I have been having a severe problem sending the fax since 3 months ago. In fact, I had tried it in a very strong signal. 90% fail to send.
The problems I encountered are:
1. Read timeout on serial port. Line dropped.
2. Will not work with certain fax machine.
3. Not all pages can be sent in one time. Especially, if certain part of the page is blank.

TrueFAX download source
You said TrueFAX can be downloaded from mypda.com, but unfortunately that's only for US users :shock: , I suppose: They ask for your device's IMEI number, and if you don't have a valid one: Goodbye .
Is there a source for non-US XDA-owners who also want to use their device as a fax machine? :?:
Martin
I'm in the US and put my IMEI number and what not knowing it was probably an auto response email system, and....they sent the link to me.
Now for the bad news. If your are running an incarnation of 2003 once installed it will kill your power switch :evil: i.e. once you turn the phone off the power switch will not turn it back on nor any of the buttons. You have to do a soft reset :x
Give ut a try though if you're brave 8) I already looked all through the reg to see if I could find and fix this little setting as a result of install, but no luck

I've read with interest much of the content here and on pdaPhoneHome about enabling my XDA to do MMS.
It seems to boil down to
1) Upgrade my EzWap from 2.1 to 2.5
2) Set up my EzWap connection to use a suitable message server
If I understand correctly the new ROM includes v2.5 of the EzWap software, so all I need to do there is download the new .exe and flash my ROM :shock:
If I'm wrong about that (someone please tell me) then I'll need to get hold of v2.5 separately, but that may be hard since the EzOS people still have 2.1 as the latest/current retail version, with 2.5 only via OEM distribution.
I've visited Photo.Net and looked at how MiNG has set up his connection, but he's in Singapore. (check it here... http://www.photo.net/photodb/folder?folder_id=257848) The myXDA site says EzWap 2.5 is available only to those who got their XDAs in Asia, so I'm assuming the settings MiNG uses are for his local TelCo.
Does O2 UK have a corresponding server I should point to, or should I point to the server detailed in MiNGs message (presumably in Singapore but who knows whether it'll be picky about sources?)

It does not: the new Special Edition ROM included the EzWAP (2.1) as it came from the O2 ROM we modified. We chose to include only software which came with the ROM we modified, plus a lot of freeware.
Someone could ofcourse make the mother of all warez distributions: a Special Edition ROM that includes (for instance) SpbSoft's GPRS monitor, Agenda Fusion (or PocketInformant 4), EzWAP 2.5, SSH and loads of other commercial software packages.
Point is, we wanted to prove that you could make the device a lot cooler by using nothing but what's already in there plus some freely available software. And even then we asked the authors of these freeware programs before including their work.
Tulaine I have posted on here and the other forums you mention all the setting for uk o2 xdas mms setting but they do not work, I know been trying to get it to work for about 1 month now, at the moment its not possible as far as I can tell(even tho as you said it work for the bloke in asia)
If anyone else can figure it let us know, I am still trying tho
Are you still having problems with this ? i've had my xda set up for mms with ezwap 2.5 for a few months now and it seems to work fine. can send and recieve mms from everyone i've tried it with. let me know if you need any help
You will need to get MMS enabled on your account by O2, but depending on who the reseller is, this may prove a Kafkaesque nightmare.
Hint: Do not admit you have an XDA, pretend you have a regular MMS phone.
Another Hint: Carphone warehouse's billing system doesn't allow a data plan with an MMS service, so you'd have to use the more expensive pay as you go GPRS plan. I might ring them up later today to see if this has been resolved yet.
Just called CPW, and got through to a decent techie who put the flag on for me with the data plan, at my own risk. Said about 50% of accounts have problems, but if I was willing to give it a shot that would be fine by him.
Interestingly, he also mentioned that CPW have stopped dealing with the XDA, and there's rumours about O2 UK also giving up. Major shame, as IMHO the XDA is still the best device around.

I want to know is there is a possibility to Flash the HTC Hermes of Softbank:

And change JAPANESE the ROM to English (or Spanish) one.

Beware the X01HT from SoftBAnk uses Bootloader 1.06. Basically that means that flashing it is impossible unless a fix for the bootloader issue is found. I just found out that I am stuck with Japanese now too

I had plans to go this afternoon to buy one What is this problem? I was looking in the forum but I couldn't find anything about it
The problem is that with Bootloader 1.04 the update software did not check the vendor ID of the Hermes. That meant that you could update a e.g. Cingular model with a T1 ROM or use a ROM with a different language.
Hermes that have Bootloader 1.06 (like the SoftBank X01HT) nocw ckeck that ID and won't let you update with a ROM from a different vendor....
Before you buy it, you can check mine if you are in Tokyo....
Yes, I'm living in Tokyo
So, is not possible to flash it Is there any post that speak about if they're researching to fix this issue?
Anyway, I don't speak many NIHONGO. Do you know any way to make it work in English (or almost English) ??
Other thing. I read in the Web that this model can't handle MMS. I imagine that it's because they didn't put a MMS program there. Could you make MMS work in your model?
Thanks for all!
Sesaru
Sorry for my late response here - I'd say currently there is no (easy) way to use a different ROM of the SoftBank model. I wil require somebody to come up with a solution for that, but that may take time. I'll go to the SoftBank store on the weekend to see if they plan to come up with an English model.
Right now, the unit will work in Japanese and Japanese only, no way you can get it to work in English as far as I can say at the moment.
MMS also does not work, so you are restricted to SMS. I am myself contemplating taking it back (I made an arrangement with the SoftBank people last Saturday to try how far I can get...) and get me a unit form Singapore.
So, if you are not comfortable with the restrictions, I'd rather advise to wait with the purchase. Let's see how DoCoMo will handle this...
Some more points:
You cannot use it currently as a wireless modem for your laptop (that's disabled)
There is no MSN chat on the unit (disabled too)
Outlook is fully restricted to SMS, I could not get pop or imap access to any other mail account to work.
I had the opportunity right now to compare a frirends DOPOD variation - he bought in Singapore. e uses it while visiting here utilizing his Singapore SIM roaming. On his, all functions work, including wireless modem, etc.
In my opinion, SoftBank did a great job in crippling the X01HT to the extent that it is less functional than an odinary Japanese 3G phone. My best advise is to buy a unlocked in Singapore or Taiwan. Alternatives on the Japanese market are the Wilcom units (but agreed, they are big and ugly compared to the sleek X01HT)
Hope that helps...

That's impossible. Softbank is removing all the staff for gaijins that Vodafone put here. For example, now WAP (Yahoo! Keitai) don't have any in English (I used the "last train" opcion a lot in the past).

You can still get that - on you phone, start the browser, the second left icon on the top and you are back on the old page where you can find the 'English' link at the botoom. But I agree, SoftBank is a huge step away from opening Japan to the West....
I probably have the chance to travel to Singapore within the next 3 weeks and will check the price there. I got friends in Singapore as well as in Taiwan and China who could ship the unit to me...
Hi!
this is the UK Expansys url. There are other deals with different accessories etc.

Outch, this is expensive, considering that I got mine here as an update deal for my old mobile for something around $150-US... so I should not worry about the restrictions too mucｈ... ;-) I now managed to get Gmail up and running in mobile Outlook, so the SoftBank model becomes more and more practical.
What I still do not understand is why they disabled using it as a modem - that is really the single biggest drawback for me. The modem applet is simply not there and without it, dialup from my laptop via Blootooth does not work. It works fine with the same SIM in a Vodafone 3G phone, so I conclude it must e the missing modem app...
BTW, as an anectode - I recall the street price I saw in Taipei 3 weeks ago must have been somewhere near US-$ 400.--
Thanks for the link though!

Hi. First let me say I'm glad I found this site, and the info about unlocking the Softbank X01HT. Because of this I decided to get one.
Secondly. The problem is they are completely sold out no matter where I look.
Currently I use a Symbian UIQ Motorola M1000 (A1000) with Docomo and Mopera for push e-mail.
I have noticed it's possible to get hold of a Softbank X01HT for about 48,000JPY off Yahoo auctions, so I'm considering getting one that way just to try it out. But whether I try it with Docomo or get a contract with Softbank is the problem. Even though the hardware should be the same, there seem to be a couple of major differences.
Docomo:
Docomo provides push e-mail and WiFi hotspots via Mopera.net to the HTCz
Docomo sells only 1 phone which is advertised as using HSDPA, and it is *NOT* the HTCz, in fact HSDPA is not mentioned on any of the literature surrounding the HTCz, including HTCs own site at japan.htc.com
Softbank:
Softbank tells me that the HTCz does *not* have push e-mail capability.
Now if I'm going to replace the software anyway how can they be different?
Does anyone know if you *can* use push e-mail (via mopera.net, for example) with a Softbank contract, or if you *can* use HSDPA with a docomo contract using the rebranded Hermes?
I would like to use BOTH! Battery life sucks if the phone has to go and check for e-mail every 5 minutes.

you can't access mopera with the softbank contract but you can run push email with using softbank as mentioned in above. if you insist on mopera, you need to have docomo usim with htc z. flashing docomo rom on whichever hermes may work but i am not sure as i have never tried that. i have docomo usim but mopera push email does not work on my wwe rom and i haven't found any workaround yet. if you want to use HSDPA, you need softbank.

if you want to use both, you may want to use softbank with a 3rd party push email service. with all that said, i don't recommend to those who don't want to use japanese rom going for softbank for now. they will be changing the ap id/password soon and you need their new rom only in japanese until someone cracks the new rom for the password. read this.

What IS actually this lockout policy? Seems they pulled out all X01HTs from sale these days (They said sold out)... I was trying to buy one for whole week, checked 12 different stores (Tokyo area), nowhere to be found! If anybody knows where to buy it, and share this info I'm buying pack of any beer, not kidding!
At one of the big shops in Shibuya, they mentioned something about ongoing 'softo' change that is taking place, and they also said that X01HT should be available again in one or two weeks!?!
I suspect the softo change is just to update their ROM and make it un-unlockable.. you can always buy one from yahoo auctions if you can dish out some spare cash (35,000~45,000yen?)

i tried this myself but it couldn't really solve the issue with using docomo usim. it kills that annoying screen once when booting up and the device becomes operable, but that screen comes up again every now and then even when i'm in the middle of typing something. if you are using it as a pda with no usim in it, that screen won't come up again once it's killed.
i heard that imei-check in the uk has a solution to this.

hey,
i have just purchased a Touch Plus (Dual) after selling my Kaiser due to it being utter ****e, I am really happy with the phone and am looking at using toms cooked rom, the problem is the price plan i am on with T-Mobile UK requires its own app called MyFaves which AFAIK is built into the custom rom T-Mobile include, its used to manage my 5 chosen contacts which work with my price plan, my question is if i install the cooked rom will it remove this app and how do i get it back as my price plan wont work without it,
Regards
Xionic
im with t-mobile on the flext plan with same phone and i dont think i have that app... maybe its just a case of them sending it to you like an sms that you accept.
think something like that happened on my mda vario
Regardless of the t-mob contract you're on the app is in there - just depends whether it's activated or not. It's also hidden as a 4th side to the cube.
As to how you'd extract it I don't know, sorry It runs as a service and has reg keys in various places. There are also a number of brn files for the cube so stripping it out will not be easy.
yea i work for t-mobile and can definately confirm the MyFaves app cannot be sent to the phone or be downloaded from anywhere, the only option i can see is for someone to extract it, i know it has been done on the US version, anyone who could do this would be great, and i would be happy to pay
Bump, anyone???,
can't you tell them that you're using another phone and would like to find out a work around or if they can send you that application to install onto another windows mobile phone?
Surely you don't need an app for this? Just call the numbers as usual right??
As I state above I work for t-mobile (customer services), if there was a simple way round it i'd know about it, and I've spoken to techy's and everyone and there is no way to install the app' its included with the rom and the price plan does not work correctly without it, only way round this i can see is for someone to use a t-mobile branded handset and try and extract the program from the rom.
Try install Myfaves cab files in here.....

I have the Tmobile MyFav 2000 family plan and have the stock HTC Touch Dual WWE rom. Where I am located the application is not needed, you just need to login to your tmobile account online and manage your MyFav's manually. It took me a while to find because its buried in there. It lets you plug in a number and a name.
I have checked my bill and I am not penalized for those numbers. The application only makes it easy to change the MyFav's wich Tmobile only allows you to do every so often (I think every 30 days)
Hope this helps,
if you are unable to find the MyFav's section online let me know, I will help build a map to it.

hey,
i have just purchased a Touch Plus (Dual) after selling my Kaiser due to it being utter ****e, I am really happy with the phone and am looking at using toms cooked rom, the problem is the price plan i am on with T-Mobile UK requires its own app called MyFaves which AFAIK is built into the custom rom T-Mobile include, its used to manage my 5 chosen contacts which work with my price plan, my question is if i install the cooked rom will it remove this app and how do i get it back as my price plan wont work without it,
Regards

Strange, I have nothing like that in mine that I have spotted!
Dear Group
I am not sure if I am in the right place but I am looking for some help with the above watch.
The supplier Gearbest is not helpful at all.
This has forced me to seek help else where. I tried scouting around to find out who makes this watch then obtain perhaps an email . The supplier Gearbest will not release details of who makes this watch or a support email address. This has forced me to do my own searching.
I found a company who makes Rwatch but the the fellow I emailed deny this is their watch.
My problem is thus I bought the above watch. From Gearbest. It arrived here and fully functional except no communication via GSM ie cell phone data . I paid Gearbest a fee and they sent me a replacement watch and exactly the same problem it arrived fully functional but. No communication via GSM ie cell phone data.
We import a variety of gps tracking devices the majority have to be set up especially setting the apn depending on the cell service provider, I was wondering if the apn on this watch is not set correctly, hence the lack of data, it seems to me impossible that two watches of the same brand etc don't work on arrival here in South Africa.
I tried an alternative cell phone service providers sim cards in the hope that one would by chance work but alas I could get no joy.
I tried to plug the watch in to my pc via usb cable thinking I could perhaps telnet but could not make any progress on my own.
I was wondering if any one here knows who actually makes these watches, perhaps a support email address would really be helpful.
Alternately Is there any way of finding out if the watch is set up to the correct apn for example. How would that be checked via a sms command or a telnet session. Is there software that I can install that can probe the smart watch for its settings via the usb cable.
To me it seems silly to send the watches back at a cost to me and only to have them send another watch and we persist with the same impasse.
I was hoping with a bit of help or pointer and a few keystrokes we can have the watches fully working in no time.
If this is the wrong place to seek this type of help could you please direct me where to go to get the help I am asking for.
Thank you for your time and trouble reading this and any help you may be able to provide me with.
Regards

Hi, same issue here. Just bought the watch from Gearbest and there is a complete lack of support for it. I wrote a ticket to Gearbest demanding support and manuals, but I don't think they are going to provide anything...
Anyway, I gave been messing around and my trouble was that no data communication was in place. Only voice calls were working. I have found the codes to enter engineering mode; just dial *#3646633#. In the menu I have been able to go to GPRS act and activate GPRS. A big G letter is shown in the screen, but nevertheless, no communication is made, and the watch is still useless....
I have been messing around with the menus; been able to activate a serial port via USB and access via Putty to the watch and perform basic AT commands, but again, with no luck.
Other codes that work are *#66*# Factory mode and *#87# autotest.
If anyone can dig any deeper and find out how to make this watch work, they will be very welcome!!
Thanks
