Has anyone figured out a fix for the GPRS connection with the new T-Mobile ROM 1.60.07? My GPRS used to always be connected and now everytime I turn off the phone, the GPRS disconnects. In addition, I think some of the battery life problems come when the phone turns itself on (screen and all) to check e-mail (as set up in the Inbox settings). It used to check the e-mail silently without turning on the screen and then sound a notification tone.
I wasn't sure if anyone knew if this was a simple registry setting or a problem only solved with a Phone Stack upgrade?
Any help would be appreciated.

I've just upgraded to 1.60.00WWE (the radio stack is 1.60.01) and noticed the exact same thing. I did a lot af searching on Google and these symptoms are not mentioned anywhere, in general everyone is saying that the upgrade went fine and the device runs better than before, so it seems we are in the minority. Hopfully this is good news, and there's just something dumb that is not configured properly.
I also have the same problem ( and my friends with xda-2 ) all was fine befor the upgrade, But now the GPRS disconets , No good for MSN Messanger

I heard this from several users on several forums.. a lot didn't notice, but there was enough who did to make me not upgrade.. once the imate update came out i asked around for people that used that if their grps disconnected.. it didn't, so i upgraded with that ROM instead of the t-mobile one. Sorry for you guys =/

GPRS Fix
See the post above this one. Apparently if you delete the file TMD_AP_NL.sa.CAB from the extended ROM and hard reset, the GPRS stays on. You do lose the little GPRS timer but who cares!
I'm going to try it tomorrow and will report back.

Success! Sort of...
Well, I took some advice and changed my Ext_ROM. I took out all of the T-Mobile stuff and put in a bunch of the programs I always have to re-load myself. Then, the Hard Reset!
Bam! Now I have Always on GPRS again. However, apparently, one of the files in the Ext_ROM must also have the Bluetooth Fix with it. Now, I don't have the option of COM4 and COM5 for Bluetooth communications from before.
Does anyone know which of the files in the Ext_ROM this might have been? I am reluctant to try them one by one for fear of messing up the GPRS again.
Any help is appreciated!

Bluetooth Fix for Serial profile
I believe is between this two
CAB: \Extended_ROM\OEM_AKU1_WWE_4AP.sa.CAB
CAB: \Extended_ROM\OEM_WWE_03120301.sa.CAB
Total Success... finally!
Well, thank you thariman for your help. I am very pleased now. I installed the two files from the ext_rom:
OEM_AKU1_WWE_4AP.sa.CAB
OEM_WWE_03120301.sa.CAB
The first gives Bluetooth Settings the option for in and out COM ports. The second assigns these ports to COM4 and COM5.
Now, I have the Bluetooth fix to use my GPS and wireless sync AND the always on GPRS.
I hope everyone figures this out. I guess T-Mobile does not want users to have the always on GPRS connection. In seems to be disabled via there customization. Seems strange though considering their pricing is for unlimited use.
Anyway, I'm happy with my set up now! Good luck to all.

I have seen many, many threads about POST installation issues regarding the new 3.16 rom. I would like to attempt a problem/resolution thread that hopefully everyone will participate in order to create a "one-stop-shopping" thread regarding these issues.
I figure the mods will later either delete dormant threads or compile related threads into one. Hopefully we can get most if not all issues related to post installation here and properly labeled...
Please post problem(s) and if applicable, the resolution(s) to the problem regarding the 3.16 rom w/ Rev. A & GPS compatibility, including custom & stock rom. Please keep the thread limited to calls, data ( Rev. A & 0 plus Ev & 1X), task bar icons, prl's, etc and refer GPS questions/issues to threads like TalynOne's The Titan Internal GPS FAQ (01/30/2008) located here...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=363431
I have included below some links to start off the thread which includes a link to the definition of what the PRL is and what it does and below that is a site with former & current PRL's for numerous carriers.

I flashed this ROM and I have since, jumped to DCDs version of it, and then back to 2.17.
I have, and apparently, a lot of folks have had inconsistent EVDO connection problems. Some times it freezes on "Loading"...other times, I can begin to pull up a web page and it times out. Speeds were good when it rarely did work properly.
The odd thing is that I have loaded new ROMS (including the current Sprint OEM ROM) and I'm still having that problem. (I'm taking suggestions to resolve this)
Also, like others, voice signal displayed fewer bars than usual. More "Signal Faded, Call lost than I have ever seen with this device.
On a kinda more positive note...
GPS worked well (when the EVDO connection did)
New Apps sucked up more of our previous RAM, but I didn't have any
latency or freeze ups.
I myself am experiencing a number of problems with the new ROM version, and will be downgrading to 2.17 soon. It took 3 installations of the new ROM to get the GPS to work. Since then, I've experienced several performance issues, including multiple times where the phone will freeze during web browsing in Opera Mobile. Sometimes, the phone won't even freeze, but will come up with a screen saying that the system memory is low, even when I'm only running Opera Mobile, it'll ask me to close either "Opera Mobile" "Phone" "Phone" or "Phone". Weird? I think so...
Also, there are times where I won't even get the internet to work. I'll have to either go in to the connections menu and disable the data connection, or do a soft reset of the phone completely.
In my opinion, it's probably more trouble than I really need to go through. I will be downgrading to 2.17 until the official release comes out.
Same issues for me:
inconsistent EVDO connection problems. Some times it freezes on "Loading"...other times, I can begin to pull up a web page and it times out. Speeds were good when it rarely did work properly.
Also, like others, voice signal displayed fewer bars than usual. More "Signal Faded, Call lost than I have ever seen with this device.
Spent 30 min with VZW level 2 support today. I called due to ##debug HDR an/aaa was = 0.. I was under the impression was supposed to be set to 1. They did look at my SSDR (I think he said that) and found it had a small issue with the authentication (still reads =0), but after he fixed that I still have issues. My HDR RDX power goes from -71db to -96db.
I also noticed every time I call the phone changes from EV to 1x. I know you don't use EV to make voice calls, but I did not remember (key word) seeing it switch like that before. Maybe someone with 2.17 1.40 radio can confirm.
I have thought about moving back too, but my call ticket history is getting pretty long with VZW and if I needed another A-key (yes I have one written down) it may start to look strange.
I'm on sprint and when I tried to update I was stuck on boot loader so I went online and switched esn over to my Treo for the time being as I worked on my Mogul. Eventually I got to load the rom fully and switched esn back. I noticed afterwards that my internet was only locking at 1x. Upon restart it would say EV but anytime it is connected to the net it is 1x. DSLreports clocked it at 50-90kbps so I know as definitely getting 1x speed. Reloaded the rom several times and still the same. This went on for 2 days. Eventually called Sprint and told them of my problem. They noticed that I was still on the regular Vision plan but I have always been able to connect to EVDO speeds so I never thought that was an issue. They updated me to Power Vision and right after I started getting EVDO speeds. I'm not sure if it was because of the change or maybe a restart of my data service that did the trick.
2 other issues I'm having is I noticed my phone is a little slow with this ROM. Opening programs etc. Sometimes the program using GPS like Live Search or GPS Viewer will lock up temporarily. The 2nd issue is what some are also reporting regarding signal. I noticed I get 1 to 2 less signal bars.
Overall 3.16 has been "ok". No problems with flashing really, and memory usage is "ok", I'm averaging around 17-18mb free with no apps running. It's not exactly the 20-22mb I had free with my prior custom rom, but enough to get by.
I'm not having problems with phone freezes or out of memory errors. I am, however, having some problems with BT and with net connectivity.
Data: I'm using Schap's Advanced config tool, version 1.1, and I've selected the option to keep my 'net connection live all the time. Unfortunately, this is not working, and I'm finding that throughout the day my connection goes down. With my prior custom rom, if I was streaming audio content over evdo or 1x, the connection would stay alive as long as the audio program was running, barring a loss of cell signal. Now I'm finding that about once an hour my data connection goes down and interrupts my audio stream.
BT: I have a Plantronics 320 headset, which worked flawlessly (albeit with less than stellar audio quality) with my prior rom. With 3.16, the volume and sound quality are much improved, BUT I am not able to answer calls on my headset. If I initiate a call with BT on, no problems, I can talk till the call is over, then press the headset hard button to hang up. If I *receive* a call, however, when I press the headset hard button to answer, the call is answered, but the audio is not directed to the headset. Instead, it routes to the handset.
GPS works well with TeleNav, GoogleMaps, Live, and generally locks onto 5-7 satellites within about 60 seconds if I'm somewhere with a clear view of the sky.
I tried using GPS2Blue to redirect the GPS data to a BT comm port. When I have BT enabled and attempt to redirect, GPS2Blue says BT port not open, waiting for BT port to open. If I go into comm manager and turn BT off, then GPS2Blue says BT port is open, and begins to wait for a BT connection to my laptop. If I go back into comm manager, the BT icon has been grayed out as if BT is off, but the little circled "X" icon is not superimposed over the BT icon as it would be when BT is off. If I click the icon again, it acts as if BT is being enabled, but the icon doesn't change, and the BT LED does not begin to blink. Don't know if it's a problem with GPS2Blue software or something else. Wish it would work cleanly, I'd love to use my 6800 as a BT GPS receiver for my laptop.
ETA: I've seen a few folks mention that when they answer a voice call their 6800 switches from Evdo to 1X. I'm wondering if this might be a way of implementing simultaneous voice & data. Has anyone tried taking a call and browsing the web simultaneously? I think this may be dependant upon network services in your area, so this may only work for folks in big cities with the most advanced network features, if it works at all...
ETA2: Just tried the above, and I'm getting the usual message that data connections cannot be initiated while on a voice call. I'm in a large city that *should* have all the latest network features, so if it dual voice/data was possible with this radio then it should work here. I'm assuming it's not presently possible, based on my experiment, but I'd be happy to be proven wrong.
with the sprint rom a ton of us have no audio out using an adaptor to listen through headphones

is a big thread about this going on the main board.
Took the plunge and installed the "stock" 3.16 on both my phone and a friend's last night. The first thing I want to note is that it went extremely smooth. No issues to note. It took a bit too long for my liking but it was fine. I didn't have to modify any MSID or MSN data - my phone worked fine right off the bat. Data was hosed, but a quick client-initiated IOTA Programming fixed that. (Settings, Personal, Phone, Services, Internet, Get Settings)
I have two constantly pinging(one 15 mins, one 30) e-mail accounts(one imap, one Exchange) that must keep my data connection alive. I haven't noticed a single decline in my data rate, nor a problem with disconnections. Then again, I live in NYC, which may make a difference.
GPS sucked last night - I couldn't get a satellite to save my life. On the way to work today, though, it was perfect. 4 satellites found in GMaps and tracking worked great.
I'm pretty happy w/the new additions to PocketOutlook too. Has anyone noticed that Gmail's IMAP works perfectly now, and that when you have multiple accounts - hitting messaging (when it's previously closed) brings up a choice of which account to go to? SWEET!
Just a quick "me too" regarding both disconnects and getting hung up during certain downloads. I've noticed that both "Live Search" from Microsoft's site and the latest (2.17) OEM ROM from HTC's site both hang up soon after they start downloading. This occurs both on the phone itself and while tethering to my laptop.

So the phone made me out to be a liar. The LiveSearch download from wls.live.com failed now. It definitely worked last night on my roommate's phone however. Hrm. I downloaded it from my pc and emailed it to myself and it actually downloaded. That's odd.

Had trouble getting my phone to flash, because I flashed the radio before the rom. Once I got phone going is working perfect. Hooked up to pda net on laptop downloading at 1.7 uploading at 500K. Use Holux to get gps started all programs work, Tom Tom is more accurate with my mogul compared to the external gps. Have not tried my s9 headphones yet. Running the DCD beta and I have no complaints except for the memory. Phone quality is the same.
v3.16+ ROM puts a voicemail icon on the 1 key which screws up the keypad if you are using the BlueFrog Big Button Dialer. To fix this, change the registry DWORD value at
Code:
HKCU\ControlPanel\PhoneExtendFunction\CDMA\EnableVoicemailIcon
from 1 to 0, and soft reset.
I was running Custels V1.1 2.14 and radio 1.47.00. I had my data set to connect all the time (which never idled btw...)and had Ev service everywhere. After installing Dcd's 3.16 & radio 3.27 I first recieved the "twin towers"... One had data connection and the other looked like the searching-for-signal tower. Plus my roam indicator was constanlty blinking.
After searching the forums, a helpful soul recommended *228 then press 3 which programs your phone. Remember that you are not upgrading to a new phone.
I then *228 and pressed 2 this time to program the latest PRL (which was 30029 before and still then). After searching some more, I saw that there was indeed a newer PRL which is 40029 (link in the first thread). I downloaded the PRL to my Sd card, dialed **775, entered my Alltel Unlock Code of 000000 and and the first screen I saw was update prl. Click on "Menu" in bottom right and hit the "Edit" button. Now you should see a empty value with "Browse" below it. Browse to the location where you placed your prl, upload and if you exit out correctly, you should be soft resetting your device.
After completeing the steps above, my roaming triangle was gone as well as the extra tower. I still have my data constantly on with Ev coverage all the time but my data actually idles now. Call quality has been noticed by myself and others as clearer and louder than before.
That Reg Entry doesnt exist on mine.

Mine has the following instead:
"HKCU\ControlPanel\PhoneExtendFunction\CDMA\VoicemailIcon
Value name:BtnDN_LAND Value data:Windows\_VoicemailBtn1_Land.bmp" and three other similars.
Should that entry be added in it's entirety or should I remove my current entries? Any body else find they have entries like mine?
I thought I had that problem at first, but when I looked more closely, the reg entry is *in* the CDMA folder, not in a sub-folder below CDMA.
!!Major Bluetooth Issue!!
recently installed DCD's new GPS enabled ROM for Verizon. Everything has been working well even the GPS !!EXCEPT!! Bluetooth OBEX. When I try to send / beam any type of file my XV6800 stops responding and I am forced to soft reset.
I don't know if this only affects the Verizon ROM or all carriers for that matter. Is there any one here that has a fix or know's of a fix to resolve this issue? Has DCD released any news on this? I would Gladly appreciate it, as all the people with this issue.
Searching For Service
I loaded the Sprint Test Rom. No when ever I boot my phone it takes ~4 minutes for the phone to lock onto the network.
You are may differ with this situation....
PRL's didn't change. Even reloaded 60610. EVDO roaming is gone. Guess they didn't like people forcing their phone to roaming in areas where Alltel has EVDO and Sprint doesn't. 60611 also removed EVDO roaming in my area. 60610 and 2.17 work fine with EVDO roaming.
CardExport & the My Documents-redirect-to-SD-card reg tweak:
HKLM\System\StorageManager\Profiles\SDMemory
change the value of the string "Folder" to "My documents"
no longer work.
I just got a Mogul today. It's really nice, but I've run into about fifteen brick walls while trying to unlock, flash, and program it so I can use it with Cricket. I used Olipro on it, then I flashed the latest radio to it, and then I flashed Ryan Mogul's ROM to it. I loaded the included Cricket PRL, and then after a lot of frustration I was able to get it to work with QPST. I changed my SPC to 000000, and I changed the carrier name thing to CRKT (should I have done that? It was SPCS before). Then I went and enabled all the GPS settings, and wrote to the phone.
So I thought, now that I have my SPC as 000000, I can get my phone programmed. But of course not; when I dial *228, I always get the "We're sorry" response. I think I missed a step or something. Maybe it was the MDN: When I dialed ##000000, both the MDN and MSID were exactly the same, but I heard that the MDN was supposed to be the phone number. You know, I'm trying to "transfer" my phone number to the new phone. I can't think of anything to do beyond this point. If I dial any other number, by the way, I get some kind of "Welcome to x roaming service" message.
Anyway, I really want to get this thing working before I head off to bed, so fast help would be appreciated. Thanks.
my MDN (phone number) is different from my MSID number. i think Cricket links your phone number to another MSID when you get a new phone, as mine has changed twice!
in QPST, when you set the SPC code to zeros, there is a button to hit to write the code to memory, or save it to flash, or something. i missed that a few times. you enter the one from the log file, then send 000000, then write it. it's not very intuitive. but if you can edit EPST with 000000 then you are fine. i haven't touched anything else in QPST on five phones i have flashed to Cricket
also, you need to point the phone to the right towers with the 1050, or 1013 PRL file, if you haven't. but if it is Cricket on the line with *228 you are good
you don't need to activate the phone, if you don't want to. if the settings in EPST are right you will be OK, as that is all the programming does
I agree with catfishk.
If you can get to ur EPST using all zero's then ur fine. When you call *228 and you do hear the cricket guy then thats good as well.
Try heading over to www.howardforums.com to download a cricket prl. I would recommend 1040 or 1050 and then try to *228 for it to program.
*228 will also program your phone with a new PRL for your market.
I don't know if I could have programmed it manually, but I called Cricket customer support yesterday at 7:15AM and they quickly changed everything for me for $15. Everything went smoothly after that, *228 worked just fine and all that. I don't know if the call and everything wasn't required, but it sure made things easier. My mogul is working now, but I have some now:
I heard that some things, such as MMS, don't work after flashing this phone to Cricket. Are there fixes for whatever is broken?
Also, when I use google maps and I try to look up my GPS location, it shows me as being somewhere only relatively close to where I am and then it says that I should be within 80 meters of that point. I was in a building today trying it out, and it said I was out on the street. Should I just use iGuidance or something?
And finally, is there something special that I need to know for tethering the device? I heard that I can make it act as a WiFI AP, but when I used WMWiFiRouter, it just said it connected to the AP in my house and it didn't show up on my computer's AP list. Is there something else I need to do?
Edit: Oh yeah, also, how much memory should I have free at a time? Currently, I only have 18mb free. I want to have at least Palringo open in the background, and it seems that TouchFlo uses 2mb. I used a program to free up 2mb, so that's really useful, but I didn't imagine so much of the RAM would be used up. I guess that's the way it is.
Also, Opera seems to have some problems. It throws an error when I try to go to a website sometimes, and last time I tried it on EVDO it wouldn't go to any websites when IE would. Anything I should do?
Thanks.
What ROM did you use? The mogul to me really does not have the memory to push T2D or M2D properly with other programs. I would find a clean cricket ROM without the m2d.
Also, to get MMS working you need a program called Arcsoft and manually program the settings for it to work.
As for everything else you just need to research a bit.
I used Ryan Mogul's ROM. Can't I just disable T2D and M2D? I know I disabled T2D, but I dunno where to find M2D to disable it.
Thanks for the MMS info, but the thing is, I don't know what the other things that don't work are. I found out I was stupidly using the Java version of Opera, so I now have the latest WM version and it's amazing. Any answers with the stuff I asked about, such as GPS and tethering?

it doesn't use true GPS, from what i have heard. it uses AGPS which triangulates from cell towers or something. i dunno but it is never spot on, just approximating

you need to install the right drivers in Windows (i presume that's your computer) and tether it via USB, i think. it pulls data, and acts as a WIFI card from your PC/Laptop, but doesn't act as an AP, i think. i use Linux so i do it differently :/

i don't know. use DCD's stuff from his site here. they are light, stable and have a lot of free memory. install the radio ROM, O/S ROM, and Cricket carrier CAB:

Opera 9.5 is BETA, and has issues. mine is stable but i use the mobile version, not the Java mini version. also, Cricket is an authentication mess when it comes to EVDO- it works great until you put it down, then it takes a few minutes to get it's s**t together. IE and Opera bail with errors timing out and you just have to keep clicking! it helps to disconnect then reconnect but meh...
Hey everyone i know alot about this phone from your forums. I have done the gps update on my phone using the wiki you had and Worked for some time. So after some time the gps wont pick up any satellites. Ok so i thought well i would hard reset and resintall the carrier cab and gps cab nogo. Ok so i reverted to stock rom and redid to dcd rom and radio added the carrier cab and gps cab again nogo. I even tried the mr1 update with gps cab via your wiki and still google maps and live search wont pick up the gps. Does anyone other than a defective gps unit have any other steps to try would be appreciated. thanks
Did you even search to see if others had your same problem. Look in the last 10 pages here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=424387
have you applied the aGPS fix? and if you have, did you update with the new information? im not sure when it happened, but verizon changed the IP address and port you should be using. i lost gps for a while and didnt even realize that a hard reset made me lose all my gpsOne settings (when i lost my akey). if you have the aGPS fix set up correctly, you should have no issues at all.
I've been having a similar problem. I am not sure what the definitive ip address settings for verizon users should be (ip/port, that is). I think I've seen at least 2 or 3 different settings, including Telus ones. Does anyone know, definitively, which ip address and port we should be using?

When you mean the ip address change do you mean using qpst and if so i might not have changed the ip address.so i will give that a chance i saw in a previous post a different ip didnt think anything of it. I will try and if someone has the new ip can you please send it to me.
I found
ServerIP=66.174.95.132
ServerPort=8888
Or is it
ServerIP = 216.198.139.92
ServerPort = 8889
And one thing i looked at my phone and when i pull up qpst i dont see the usb ports listed i do see unknown i would try those but if anyone has anything on that would be great thanks
Guess i have to revert back from mr1 to dcd rom hope this works i loved my gps. my omnitech with igo and navigon is ok but i like google maps better.
you should be using DCDs rom anyways. the correct settings are the second block that you listed. your ports may not match the same numbers as the wiki, but add them both and open whichever one has SURF next to it
Use the telus servers. The verizon ones are hit and miss if they work without VZ navigator.

whats the settings for telus doing rom update right now
68 to 69
Ok so i had the xv6800 and got it working with gps. Then i decided to get the xv6900 because it has more ram and i knew my software i had would work on it. Plus i knew about this hack so....I gave it a shot.
Well I turned on the XV6900 as soon as i had power running to it, and it came from verizon with 6.1 on it. Which saved me some time having to install it later. The first thing i did was install the vahalla cab that i had on my 6800.
the registry settings were automatically set at
Mode 2
PDE address 5C8BC6D8
PDE port to 8889
I then installed the Serf telus agps deal....
Mode 4
server ip 216.198.139.92
server port 8889
then i install Franson gpsgate2.6
and it shows me a lite green icon on my today screen then when you go into settings it says "getting gps data, but no position"
I couldn't get gps to work in google or live. Maybe because i was impatient. I sat here at work on the 8th floor of my building and still couldn't get it to work. So finally I when i was leaving for work, i called my wife to let her know i was on my way home, and when i hung up the phone....there it was. The light green was now dark green which means gps position. And it works now. So i installed tomtom and that works (btw i use gpsgate for this to fool tomtom into thinking that the installed gps is a real tethered gps, because built in wouldn't work). So now gps works great, until I turn on my phone on the 8th floor. So my guess is, the gps has to get a lock outside with clearview of sky while you use your phone. once you do this the agps helps out and then you can go inside and still have location.
Try it let me know if this works for you.
btw- has anyone been getting text msgs saying a free software update available by dialing *228 then 2? this updates the roaming area. I wonder if this is tied in with us hacking the gps. Just a thought.
Telus server info.

I have been trying for quite some time to get the pesky little 'Internet Calling' option to show up on my Touch Pro. I've tried all sorts of little utilities on various different ROMs and I've yet to see my VOIP provider show up as an option to dial out on, or even any change when 'Internet Calling' is configured and enabled on the Home screen.
There seems to be lots of (possibly outdated?) info out there and there is no shortage of utilities that are supposed to enable the feature, but as far as I can tell none of them seem to work on this particular phone.
I would like to have SIP enabled on my phone, and I would like it to use the same dialing pad, contact database and phone program that the phone on the device uses. I don't want a seperate application, I just want the phone to be able to dial out and recieve calls via VOIP over WIFI, and I want the bluetooth headset to work properly with it and I want clean audio in both directions with a good WiFi connection. Support for multiple SIP accounts would be a huge bonus as well. Is this asking too much or is it just not possible with this device?
I am aware of and do have Fring and Skype both working on the phone, but they do not share the same features as the standard phone application that is native to the device, the biggest issue is that if the phone goes to sleep I don't get calls, even if I'm sitting in my office with a perfectly good wifi connection.
Is there a ROM out there that has VOIP enabled where you can just set up your provider and it works? Has anyone had any success on this phone getting VOIP to work natively? If not a thread that basically says no, it doesn't work might help others that are fighting with this issue.
Thanks in advance.
I had never heard of this as even being possible in WM
Go to registry "Features" under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Phone,
and add 8 Hex to the value.
Thanks to beefviper on ppcgeeks who figured this out.
Original info here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.php?p=749746&postcount=5
If anyone else has more info on CDMA & SIP I'm interested, because it seems like I can't get all pieces working together at once. Either the GPS is broken, or the microphone is muted. Fix one, break the other.
This worked for me!!!!
Just going to reflash and see if I can get it all working without all of teh extra hacking around and will report back.

Here is what I did after you posted the missing link:
1. Reloaded my phone with the latest NSFAN ROM.
2. Set up the phone to connect to my wireless network. Turned the phone and data connection feature off (my phone is not provisioned)
3. Installed WM6VoIPFull.cab - restarted phone as suggested.
4. Installed Setup_Voip-v0.3.cab
5. Ran Sip Config Tool V2.0.1
6. Ran Sip Dialplan - soft reset as suggested
7. Ran Setup VoIP and set Outgoing calls using VoIP to 'Whenever Available' in the options tab
8. Added 8 to the Hex value at the reg key you noted. Restarted the device.
9. Enabled the Internet Calling on the Settings/Home/Items option
Saw that the VoIP was saying No service. Confirmed connection settings were correct but could not see the phone hitting the PBX at all.
Re-installed WM6VoIPFull.cab, rebooted, re-enabled whenever available... swore some more... Home item says no service. Reconfirmed that the PBX works with settings I'm using with softphone on PC. Made sure I could get to Google Maps on phone. WiFi is working and DNS is resolving, account parameters are all good... still no service. Phone isn't even attempting to log onto PBX.
Whet back to this thread on another site - http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?p=1610281
And performed the regedits and added thescripts in post #9 (Cudos to 'El Ha$on')
So I am able to easily turn VoIP on and off....
Try random things to try to get it to magically work again. No Joy. Just for kicks try turning the phone on, and I get a notification that says 'home only' - no clue what that means.
Confirmed that the connection is set to whenever available tried togelling the use over the phones data connection, rebooted. Still 'No Service'
Can't figure out why the phone doesn't want to connect through my wifi, throw phone across room against the wall and go to bed.
- UPDATE -
The above method DOES work, however there is another issue. Microsoft uses a different set of protocols for SIP authentication, so if you are attempting to connect to a PBX that does not support the Authentication that the phone is offering up, you are likely geting 401 errors.
I can connect the phone directly to my trunk lines without any trouble now using the above method.
Installing audioroute routes the audio to the earpiece of the phone and the volume that I am getting is sufficient, allthough not particularly loud.
Happy Voiping
Glad to hear you got everything working. Could you post a link to where you got the voip package you actually used?
Sure thing, I used the files from thread number 8 from here:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?p=1610281
Does your GPS work with all this installed, and have you confirmed that your mic is transmitting your voice? When I was first testing, I didn't even think to check that people could hear me. (Because I was calling one of those automated response places).
Thanks for the link, I think I might take a bit to work up the energy to try yet another combination
Yes GPS is working and VoIP is fully functional. Last piece of teh puzzle is to get the Wifi to remain always on.
(and get it to Authenticate with freeswitch)
Touch Pro CDMA and VOIP
I currently use an HTC Touch Pro to dial out through my WiFi router on a phone that is not active with any cell provider. I am able to do this with an older version of Skype software. When I tried updating to the latest version of Skype software it would not work. I am not able to receive calls on it yet, but I believe I will be able to trick the interface into receiving calls through the Internet the same way my computer does.
Wifi: no stand by / always on
