[Q] HowTo? automatically dial a number - Windows Mobile Apps and Games

Hi all,
still happily using WinMo 6.5 and have PhoneAlerm on the device which allows me to run programs when I enter a location.
That was great to switch off call forwarding in certain situations if i knew how to automatically dial a number (#21#). Unfortunately I didn't find anything working though I googeled some hours
Do you know of any program doing that?
Thanks!
Franky
P.S: "By posting questions to this forum you are breaking the forum rules". There is no more accurate forum I found. this is a generic OS- 8not device-) related question. Where was it better posted than here??

Issues sending SMS's, i have searched forum :-)

Hi All,
I have searched on this one and can't quite find anyone with a resolution, either positive or negative. Any help is appreciated.
When sending SMS's i have found that my contacts lists will show the correct entries for the person that i search for. However after about 2 seconds, all the entries (ie home p, mobile p & work p) will change into e-mail entries. If i guess & click on correct one it fills out the SMS form correctly, however this is a bit hit and miss. Whats worse is that the order changes!
Thanks guys, and if i have missed the post with the solution please accept my apologies & i understand I’ll be suitably chastised.
PS - ROM 3.17.03 ENG with RADIO 4.21.00
Confirmed...
It happens when you go to 'inbox', hit 'New' (left-bottom), hit the contacts icon, and then use the 'search' function to look for someone with more than one entry of either type 'mobile' or 'email'.
Bad bug, they never tested the search from here. Must say I never search from there either. Looks like the search results window is populated in a screwed up way, where the order of the real information and the displayed information doesn't match.
They really need to force these developers to use their own code on a day-by-day basis.
( I send my SMS's by just going to the contacts straight away, tap and hold a contact and selecting 'Send SMS' from the context menu. Works unless you're sending the same message to a number of people, I guess.)
Thanks for that, seems to be a bit too much "they didn't test" in this product i must say.
I'm sure they'll get it all sorted in the end. It took a very long time to get PPC2002 to a usable state .

Software for auto-ignore incoming calls

Hi, I want to know is there any software we can use to ignore incoming calls from contacts in certain categories? I use only 1 number for business and personal things, it would be very useful for me if I can auto-ignore calls from Business category after business hours
Thanks folks...
Just wanted to add to the question. I was using Nokia3650 previously and it came with a utility named "BlackList". You could put in contacts in the blacklist and they woudl always get a message of "The number your dialling is not responding at the moment". Is there any such utility available for the XDA :? ?
I would love to have such a utility.........If anyone came accross it, PLEASE post it
Just set that business number to other short "beep" ringtone and u won't get any attention when te call comes in.
hello
is there already a blacklistprogram?
thx

Of course there is such a program. It is called Smart Filter(commercial unluckily). I will post it tomorrow (my network is a bit... down... so I'm writing from my MDA! ). Any way, if you don't wanna wait for me to post it - try google!

Isn't this CallerFirewall in Chineeze?
SmartFilter is good.
CallerFirewall
Yes, but it has been translated to English (look further down in the same thread)
CallerFirewall rocks. It's ugly to look at, you need to soft-reset your phone sometimes to get blocked callers added properly, but it's very effective and free. Even though it's clunky to use, it's not like you need to be worried about using this program every day, right?
Hi everybody,
I'm using CallerFirewall for some time now and it works great, no problems so far. But u can't block callers by category, u can do it only individually.

Running Voice GSM & the XDA - Will it Work with the XDA?

As a long time PPC user with the Audiovox RTM-8000 GSM CF modem and Running Voice GSM, I have grown to like how Running Voice GSM's 3.0.5 GUI works.
However, I recently got an XDA, and I was wondering if Running Voice GSM would run on the XDA?
Has anyone tried it ?
Or is this just plain redundant with the XDA's standard features / software?
I tried the search with no results & I didn't want to just load it up and crash the XDA...
Thanks,
JB
PS: this is THE forum for the XDA...
PSS: yes, this is the same jmbneaf in the other PPC forums....
It didnt work for me, however why dont you do a backup then try it yourself, if it doesnt uninstall properly you can always restore the backup.
Cruisin-thru,
I may give it a shot... I'll report back here afterwords; that is unless someone else posts prior results...
-JB
I tried it a few months ago, it didn't work. I emailed the company, and they answered me "not compatible with PPC Phone Edition". Anyway, if you see it on the Handango page, the notice says: "not for phone edition".
Thanks Tekflow. Sounds like a closed question to me.

Running voice gsm
If anyone still have a copy of Running voice gsm, pleeeeeese upload a copy for me. I've searched the world over at my home and the web. It no longer exist.

Why Cant This Be Done ?

hey everyone,
was just thinking everyone is making an effort of converting xda,xdaII,xdaIIs,xdaIIi and other pda phones into extra ordinary pda's which have everything......skinning....games...theft control...and many other things, was just wondering why cant someone make a software which accepts a call plays a recording from the pda and then records the msg of the caller on the pda and ends the recording when the caller hangs up, i mean how hard that could be ? when the guru's out here can create a software which runs in background and sends a sms msg (in hidden)if name or addy is changed on pda then why not an auto ans'ing software ?
regards
jeetz.
whats wrong with voicemail anyway?
do a search it's been up 10000000 times
from what i been able to understand then the gsm module dont support the auto answer option in settings
looking for posts about the subject
use search and
search for
Answering AND machine
or
voicemail
the AND mean that it will only give posts where both answering and machine are present

RemoteTracker - Antitheft software

Hi there,
This software is an Antitheft and you can use it to track your device when it was lost or stolen. It works catching a formated SMS sent from any phone and then send useful informations back.
You can use it to others objectives, like keep your eye in your child. Use your imagination!
If the thief change your SIM card, you will receive a SMS alerting you and you still can track your device. All you need to do is set an emergency cel number.
RemoteTracker can be added to third part custom ROMs. But, with a hard reset all configurations was lost. Now, RTRegCreate tool can create a configuration file using your PC. ROM cookers can use this DLL to make RT hard reset safe!
I need to learn VisualStudio 2008 and develop to Windows Mobile for professional purposes. I choose to make this projet because thought it might be fun
My Glofish X800 has Panot (from eten-users.eu) custom ROM with WM6.1 and native .NET 3.5, but you can download this .NET version if needed here: http://www.microsoft.com/Downloads/...49-3C6B-42F1-9FD9-0041345B3385&displaylang=en
The installer CAB file and source code of RemoteTracker can be downloaded here:
http://remotetracker.sourceforge.net
This version answer the commands below:
rt#help - send this list of commands;
rt#ehelp - send this list of commands by e-mail;
rt#cb#<some_tel_number> - turn on the Phone and call the number passed as parameter;
rt#gp#<some_cel_number> - try to get GPS coordinates and send back to cel number passed as parameter.
rt#egp#<some_e-mail_account> - try to get GPS coordinates and send back to e-mail passed as parameter.
rt#pb#<some_cel_number> - Use them to receive your contacts stored in SIM card back. If you do not take the phone back, at least the contacts will be saved.
rt#epb#<some_e-mail_account> - Same as pb, but the message goes by e-mail.
rt#elt#<some_e-mail_account> - This command will start GPS, Log the path about 5-6 minutes and send the KMZ file by e-mail. This file can be opened with Google Earth. Very cool.
rt#go#<some_cel_number> - get 'settings/owner' informations.
rt#ego#<some_e-mail_account> - Same as go, but the message goes by e-mail.
rt#rst - softreset device.
rt#dkz - delete all kmz files.
rt#dsc - delete all contacts in SIM card.
rt#eganfl - Send, by e-mail, a list of all incoming and outgoing calls if you have VITO audio notes installed.
rt#eganf - Send, by e-mail, all incoming and outgoing calls records if you have VITO audio notes installed.
rt#findme - Same as 'gp' command, but ask you if you want to answer the command.
rt#alarm - Just play a sound. Useful when you don't remember where the device is, but you know it's your home.
rt#gi - Send informations about your phone: IMSI and IMEI.
rt#egi - Same as 'gi' but the answer goes by e-mail.
rt#msg - Send a message to be displayed on your device.
The main screen has a tab with help.
I did this project to be multi-language. In this version there is Portuguese (my mother language), English (sorry about it, my english is very bad), Dutch (thanks to Cybermoose, from etenusers) and Spanish (thanks to Popy from etenusers). If you want to make your own translate, I can tell how. Very simple.
If you decide to try RemoteTracker, I would like to read reviews, comments and suggestions. Remember this is a beta version and may contain bugs. Use at your own risk and with caution.
Please see ChangeLog.txt to see the improvements.
For those of you who are having the problem with the help file,
with some strange certificate errors and PIE opening when you start RTconfig, the problem lies with having the default program that opens html set to something besides PIE (Opera 9.5, perhaps)
To fix this, use schap's Advanced Config tool to set .htm and .html files to be opened by:
Code: iexplore.exe file: %1

Keep RemoteTracker up to date!
There is an integration with AppToDate. This application verify if configured softwares are up to date or not. If not, you are alerted, and invited to download the new version! Very cool and useful.
You can download AppToDate here: http://www.modaco.com/content/apptodate/267096/download-apptodate-supported-applications/
After install AppToDate, please download RemoteTracker and run RTConfig or softreset your device to configure AppToDate.
Try this and don't forget a new version never more!
--> It is a work in progress. In future versions I will make a lot more.

I didn't know this software. Very good I think, I'll try later. But I suspect the objectives are different. RemoteTracker works only in silent mode to help you find your device if you loose it.
There is only one user interface to configure few parameters. After that you don't need to use it any more.
All functions are activated by SMS (remotely) and the answers will be by SMS or e-mail. For example you can use your wife's phone to send SMS to your lost phone and then receive GPS coordinates to find it.
If you want to compare RemoteTracker with other software, it's more similar to Mobile Justice, but with more features.
This is first goal of RemoteTracker. The second is help you to retrieve your personal data back. It's not totaly done yet. There is a work in progress.
Hope this answer your question
I think this is fantastic! Great idea! Do you think you can incorperate more CDMA-friendly, not-solely-sim-card features? I'm downloading now
I don't have a CDMA device But I think I can search for informations and then code, but without tests.
About suggestions that similar software already exists, this is no argument that this software should not be developed. We see so many sw that do the same thing. Some do it better than the others. So, even reinventing the wheel is necessary smtimes because smone came made the tubeless tyres by reinventing the tubed ones. (and ofcourse, we all made "Hello World"'s, isn't it)
Thanks joubertvasc, and I wish you luck in your endeavour. Any development is good development.
wow. If this is going to work as it should, then perhaps it is something that needs to be built into the rom itself?
what happens if the new owner decides to hard reset?
Sounds very promising! I'm bookmarking the page already!. can't wait to try it. than you for this!

I agree and thanks. I did not like the similar software in the market. And I need to learn VS .net, so I decide to make one by my self to learn and also for fun.

One thing I'm thinking is how to reinstall RT automaticaly after a hard reset. May be using external cards, but the autorun feature only works when card in inserted.
Built into the ROM is possible, but only ROM cookers or manufactures can do it.
I think its early to think about it. RT have to me more tested.

All WIMP does is send an SMS back with the current GPS co-ordinates, very useful but severely lacking compared to what the OP is trying to do. That said it is native PPC code with no need for .NET.
Surely we should commend anyone trying to write alternatives as without that attitude we would all be using Windows with MS Office and browsing using IE. Possibly not the best analogy but it will do.
Thanks! It's great! Can I ask a question?
When the device's stolen, may be the thieft removed your SIM card and then insert a new one. So how to known a new phone number in that SIM card to you send a SMS?Tks!
maybe it can send sms with phone number whenever a sim card which is not in preconfigured list is inserted.
also another suggestion is, for the phones which do not have GPS, maybe it can send the tower information ? So that it could be used to track where it is based on the tower information ?
i wasn't complaining. i think it's wonderful people are trying to develope new software. i was just giving reference.

When you run RT for the first time, the IMSI of your SIM card is stored. After a new 'boot' this IMSI is verified again. If the new IMSI does not match with the old, you will receive a SMS alerting you. This message has the new number. You must input an emercency mobile number in config tab. This number, of course, must be a mobile number diferent of yours (your wifes, mother, son, or so).

Of course I do! Thank you very much!
Very simple: copy and rename english.xml and english.htm to french.xml and french.html.
Edit both files and just translate ignoring the words between < and > characters (those are "commands").
Edit language.xml file and insert the lines below before </languages> (last line):
<language>
<code>4</code>
<name>Français</name>
<file>french.xml</file>
<help>french.html</help>
</language>
Today I was roaming around some blogs and stumbled upon an article with some tips to protect your "smartphone", they talked about a software called mSafe, I even downloaded it for test.
Anyway, it does mostly what you want to develop. The site is http://www.motionapps.com. Their apps are intended for Treos but mSafe states that it's compatible with WM5.
Just for your reference.

Well... I'm not familiar with windows mobile programming but I'm a SIM Card programmer. I don't know if you can access STK commands (commands to the sim card) via the Windows Mobile API's but, if you can, there is a function ("proactive command" using the specific SIM terms) called "PROVIDE LOCAL INFORMATION" that gives you exactly this information (and more)...
Hope it helps...
