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 upgraded from a Nokia 6310i and iPaq 3870 connected by Bluetooth to an unlocked XDA using my orange SIM. With help from this site, particularly Dave4391, I've got GPRS working, but the next problem is that I've got Line 2 on my SIM for friends and family, but I can't find anyway of switching to it on the XDA. On my 6310i it is a long (about 5-7 seconds) press on the # key, which toggles between Line 1 and 2. Using SIM manager I can see both my numbers but I can't find a way of changing lines. Can anyone help? Thanks.
Hi,
not much help but I am looking for an answer to this problem too
Hope someone can do it
Thanks
Michael
You need a phone that has the orange logo "stamped" on it - they preload their software on to the phone... Theres going to be no way to do it, unless one of the lovely XDA developers can program their own software :?:
Hi John
Glad to hear those settings work for you I was just looking through the forum. I have upgraded my xda1 to a xda2 and had line 2 activated recently and I am having the same problems as you, if I discover anything I will drop you a line, lets hope one of the developers from this great forum will help us out and maybe write some software to solve this, I have quite a few beers to give away I don't know whether you know or not but orange are bringing out their own version of the xda,
check it out www.orange.co.uk/cgi-bin/business/phones.pl?context=corporate&phone=spvm1000.
Cheers Dave
Hiya,
I've has organised myself a new XDA 2, does anyone know if these can be unlocked to any network like the original XDA?
Regards,
Chris
Now that the XDA II is to sale, I hope it will be possible very soon to unlock it :wink: , a friend will bought one for me in UK , and I need to have it simfree ...to use it, unless that, it will be a PPC Phone Edition, with no phone ! :roll:
Unlocking

Unlocking from O2
Hi,
What number at O2 did you call to unlock the phone and what excuse did you you use?
Thanks,
K
no excuse...just asked for the unlocking code..and they charged me £15
Hi, do you have the number? I checked in 3 shops and they claimed no unlocking options for 12 months... :?
Unlocking
Called O2 and they said they would unlock it... however they didnt give me an unlocking code... they said they will take care of things for me.
Can they do it from their side? I thought I was suppose to enter some code to unlock the device or at least thats what I have done in the past with an Ericsson phone I had...
Can someone help? dont want them charging me for nothing...
K
Number is
08702 410 202
Option 0
they need to give u a code which you need to enter once u put a non o2 sim card in the xda2
Or run SimLock.exe (hidden file in Windows directory)
Out of interest, what was your unlock code?
No luck... O2 wont unlock because its a new contract... Didnt like their attitude might take the phone back tomorrow...
Mine is a new contract & "Darren" in Warrington definately said to me that they would unlock on payment of £15 and my whole year's contract in advance. He checked with his manager & that was confirmed.
Ring 'em back. They are being totally inconsistent.
my xda is on a three month old contract and they gave me the unlock code without any fuss
Every 1 in O2 sing a different song!
When I bought my XDA 1 I paid O2 £15 to unlatch it so I could use it on any network. So when I upgraded (over the phone with O2) to the XDA2 I told them I wanted that unlatched too.
No problem, they said, just call customer services when it arrives.
After being given many different stories by O2 they finally gave me the unlatching code.
The problem is that when I entered it the phone rejected it every time although O2 checked the IMEI number several times.
Finally they tell me that they have an arrangement with HTC (The manufacturers) not to allow the unlatching of the XDA2 to any network other than O2!!!
It would have been nice if O2 staff had been advised of that and not told me there would be no problem and then given me a code that doesn't work!!
I have sold my XDA 1 and bought accessories for the XDA 2 so I am now out of pocket and fully intend writing to O2 claiming I have been mis-sold. That is, unless anyone out there knows how to unlock the phone so the unlatching code works ??
I shall persevere with hassling O2 until I get it unlocked though I cannot see how any of you out there have managed this when O2 staff have so adamantly informed me that they simply cannot and will not be unlocking the XDA2 for any but O2 network until next year!! :x :x
it may be that the staff who i spoke to were not aware of this policy and just treated like any other handset...i am not even using my o2 sim card but using it on t-mobile and vodaphone.
i have read all the responses on this page and the sim lock exe has been metioned but what does this programe do i would love to know
Please, xda-developers , can you find a way to desimlock XDA II ???
I was suppose to receive my unlock code , paying 15£ to O2 , and 650 £ full price with no contract ; IMEI and bill have been sent by O2 store to the Central stuff, but now, they said , no more unlock !!!
So that means, as I leave in France, that I can use my XDA II only like normal PPC and not PPC Phone , and that I will have to buy a phone !!! :evil:
Simlock.exe is the program that runs when you have a SIM inserted that is not belonging to O2 - asks you for the unlock code.
Alternatively can be run as standalone exe for the same purpose.
rustek/tenzin
They cannot legally NOT allow you to unlock the phone if you request it. It is against OFTEL regulations in this country. If they persist, just mention that to them, further non-cooperation, ring OFTEL and get them to intervene - the "watchdog" is there for our benefit.
Hi, I've just bought an XDA 2 off contract, SIM FREE. However even though it's not locked to a network when you put a non-O2 sim card in it asks for an unlock code.
Does anybody know the unlock code to make it SIM FREE, or is it specific to each device???
Which means it is locked to a network, namely O2, the only way to get the unlock at the moment is from O2.

I met the same problem. I sent email to O2 Data support and explain situation. They asked me copy of the receipt, model number and IMEI of the unit. And at least i've got code. So, you must proof that you bought unit off contract.
can you tell me the email address you sent it to?
thanks

The same as in User Guide [email protected]
O2 have unlocked my xda2,
I provided them with imei only and they were very helpful, if only they could start to make their xda's unlocked in future so that we dont all have this trouble.
o2 are impossible!!
i think i need a miracle to get a unlatching code any time soon!
any miracle workers out there contact me plzzz!!
thanking u in advance
Well, I'm also waiting for a miracle, after several hours on the phone with no results....and from France , it's a lot of money....for nothing !!!
i bought the XDA2 @ expansys (ok it s more expensive) but i get the unlock code included in the package on a paper sheet as well and it worked perfectly on French and belgian networks
Hi ! Cyberbob, after an ultimate call to O2 , i'll probably do like you and sell my xda2 locked as a simple pda ....
But don't believe it's more expensive on Expansys (LOL !) , I have paid 1030 euros to the guy who bought the xda2 for me in Uk , plus around 8 hours of phone calls to UK from france....so I think , Expansys price is not so bad , and your xda2 is sim free ! :wink:
the price for exclusivity of having the first XDA2 in France
i guess it will be to bad to sell it as a simple PDA i hope you ll find a better solution

3125 unlocking help.
Hi, I tried to sim-unlock a locked 3125 with this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?p=2459703 , after that the phone gave me a ''fatal error" "data crashes" message, I had a backup of the supercid file of the phone (file made with the spv-developers supercid tool), I flashed the file back and now I don't have the "fatal Error" message, and the phone accepts other sim cards different from the cingular sim, but the phone has no signal at all, all the other stuff works fine, I appreciate any advice anybody could give me to restore the signal (service) back to the phone, or that means the phone is still locked?.
Thank you

no signal
try to flash just the radio and see if that helps.
How to??
Thanks for your reply, I don't know how to flash the radio only, would love to give it a try though, besides I am willing to provide this phone and also donate to anyone who thinks it's able to create an unlock tool for these phones.
Thank you

Sim unlock? is it still necessary?
How about using one of the new sim-card chips which you place under the sim card (you might have to cut off a small piece of the sim card plastic) and it supposedly eliminates the need for an unlock? The phones (so I have heard) word as if they were unlocked with all cards.
The chips are called x-sim or something.
If you know if it works - give some feedback
Do you have other link?
lewnetoons, thanks a lot for the link, are you able to upload the file to a different service, I don't want to install third party stuff from zango on my PC, is it safe?.

X - sim
I think the universal or tornado sim will work, however I have not used them, I'll give them a try and let you know.
X-sim, xsim turbo sim
I tested the x-sim card and it works.
Right now I have a Nokia e51 because my Startrek died on me (power connector just fell out... can you believe it!?)
I can see no reason why the CHEAP x-sim (bought my for 9 Euros with postage) should not work on other phones.
I simply cut away a piece of the card (so that the small chip on the xsim can sit there tightly - so not too big a piece) and inserted it carefully - simply no simlock, none at all, with any card I tried.
It works on 3g sim cards as well.
@dakiro
where did you buy this x sim for only 9,= euros with postage? i can't find it that cheap anywhere.
tx in advance for reply!

lol, yes
same thing happened to me
For a 3125, call ATT, give the IMEI and they will give you the unlock code in about 5 minutes, no charge, no questions. They asked if I was an ATT customer, I said no and they still gave it to me.

Just got myself a brand new Cingular 3125 off ebay. Called AT&T to ask for an unlock code, but they told me that that serial and IMEI number is not listed in their database...and I should contact the manufacturer. Did it fall of the truck before it reached AT&T???
Anyhow I have mailed HTC for an unlock code 4 days ago and still no reply
