{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

This is a freeware tool that can be used to route the audio from the earpiece speaker to the backspeaker and vice versa.
A good addon for VoIP utilities.
Compatibility
Windows Mobile pocket pc or smartphone.
Usage
Install the CAB and use the titlebar icon to open the user interface.
The first icon routes the audio to the earpiece speaker.
The second blue icon, can be used to route the audio to the backspeaker.
The orange icon, routes the audio to the speakerphone, while in a phone call.
You can also use the bottom slider to move the taskbar icon, or the about button to show this page.
The top-right square hides the user interface.
Command line
This tool can be executed by command line with parameters.
You can execute /program files/teksoft/audioRoute/audioRoute.exe with the following:
-earpiece , routes the audio to the earpiece
-backspeaker , routes the audio to the backspeaker
-speakerphone , while in a phone call, activates the speakerphone
-switch , toggles between earpiece and backspeaker
Code:
audioroute.exe -earpiece
audioroute.exe -backspeaker
etc.
Download
To manage updates easier, I won't attach the cab here, instead feel free to download it using this link.

This seems very interesting. Would there be any program to route audio to a bluetooth headset?

Thanks. Can you test it on your device? I'm looking forward to a big compatibility list, but for that I need community's help.
(offtopic: for audio over bluetooth , there are several tools, including the a2dptoggle included in my signature or this shareware tool)

I use version 2 to route all audio to my bluetooth enabled helmet

He has a program that does that listed on the download page he linked to.
Anyway, this looks like a great, professional app... My only question is will this interfere w/ the way my phone automatically switches off the speakers when I put in the USB audio adapter and uses that? And will the speakerphone button on the HTC dialer app still work? If I exit this app, will everything go back to normal and automatically ajust?
I'm using an ATT Fuze.
Thanks!

Thanks. I plan to make it even better. I have a very short compatibility list atm, so I can't say much about the Fuze, only to guess that it should work. You can test it, if something goes wrong simply uninstall it, and everything will go back to previous state. There are no permanent effects of using it.

Okay, that's what I was looking to hear. Thanks. I'm gonna download it and and give it a shot w/ Skype.

Looks great, but doesn't route the sound to the earpiece.
I also have DynRILv1.1.cab installed, when I use the Dynamic RIL Interface. The phone can route the sound to the earpiece.
Does audioRoute uses the same dll then the DynnRILv1.1.cab?
My phone is a HTC Diamond

It doesn't seem to work with HTC diamond+skype. I still hear everything from loudspeaker.
A suggestion from me: place a quit button so that we can quit the program when we don't need it. Instead, create a shortcut on Start->Programs for us to start it when we need. The S icon can be pretty irritating as my diamond has lots of icons on top already.

Where to get dynnrilv1.1?

Does not work on i780
Good idea but it does not work at all on my Samsung SGH-i780 with WM 6.1. I tested on Skype, fring and Nimbuzz.
I'll be more than happy to test it more version.
Don't give up.

Yes yes! That worked fine and it's not ugly at all. I find it better than the new version as it allows me to quit and start manually.

Thanks for your comments.
I can check to see what goes in 1.2 since most of you said 1.1 works and the newer doesn't.
Also I'll add a quit button and the shortcut in programs.
Meanwhile feel free to add any other ideas you'd like to see in this update.

Reviewing the audioRoute 1.2.010
Reviewing the audioRoute 1.2.010
It's really hard to believe that any VoIP client who play the sound just only on the loud speakerphone will become a real cellular telephony alternative. Everyone who got to be a VoIP nerd know the importance of routing the voice on the earpiece, and know this is the Microsoft Windows Mobile fatal weakness comparing with NOKIA and iPhone platform capabilities.
The first company who did some research and progress with Windows Mobile in routing the voice to earpiece was Ageet (with AGEphone). But even the today Mobile AGEphone 2.7x is still far from perfect. The small number of hardwares capable in playing AGEphone on earpiece keep the potential of VoIP technology on a very low scale. Another group who anticipated the importance in routing the voice to earpiece was FRING. Unfortunately, FRING developers team didn't learn that a VoIP application if missing a Dial-pad and DTMF, is incomplete. And the same with AGEphone, the FRING routing voice approach is not running well with all Windows Mobile hardwares. On the other hand, some few phone manufacturers get importance to the earpiece and released customized Microsoft VoIP clients to play the voice correctly.
Until now, there is no general solution, no panacea in routing the sound, so Windows Mobile just hopes.
An excellent approach came on xda-developers by routing the sound from speaker to earpiece with a RIL API sequence. The troca2.exe and audioswitch.exe must be mentioned.
When releasing the DynRIL sources, Teksoft came on the spot. The latest soundswitch product - audioRoute 1.2.010 is empowered with a stylish interface and appear as a very nice must-have software for Windows Mobiles. Unfortunately, the latest release of DynRIL doesn't work as good as previous version. At least, not on TiOMAP850 platforms. I am curious to know if, or on what hardwares, the new DynRIL API sequence have been reported to respond correctly as designed. Let's hope is just a bug, not a set back.
The new audioRoute 1.2.010 came with some innovative improvements: instead build a monolith that run the RIL API sequence, Teksoft released a RIL wrapper, an audioroute-switch that can be also accessed by scripts, and a try-icon executable designed to manage the playing sound-instances from speaker to earpiece.
The try icon interface can be dragged on taskbar, and some hidden features can reveal more if modifing some HKLM\Software\Teksoft\audioRoute\ properties. For example, if want to really know what is happening when tapping the audioRoute buttons, you may enable the EnableDebug to “1”, on Registry.
What personally I consider a downgrade when compare with downloaded DynRIL v1.1 is the missing of a "quit" option (you can only kill the try-icon executable) and also the missing of the coloured sound-routed instances.
Now, you are not informed what instances are active with the new interface.
DynRIL v1.1 had the following improvements:
- Started switching on earpiece directly;
- Colored the taskbar-rectangle accordingly with the instances, especially needed when sound was routed to the earpiece;
- Switched back to load-speaker on exit;
(incomplete) Hardvares list reported to work with: DynRIL v1.1
More necessary customization is expected to be implemented - like tracking the microphone in use, or activating RILInit sequence with a customized list of third-party applications. Are those higher expectations than ever? I don't think so.
Let's hope Teksoft will correct the known buggs and improve this must-have baby.
Congratulations radhoo !
Thank you.

I tried dynril 1.1 and Audioroute.
It seems Audioroute doesn't work at all. Pressing those tree icons doesn't change a thing. I have Polaris with 3Lit3 VI FULL ROM if that is important.
Dynril routes sound to internal speaker but it seems that sound is still on external speaker too, just much quieter than before. Same thing is when I use enable earpiece in Fring.
Can somebody explain me that?
Thank you
