Hi,
Does anyone know if any of the changes put into 7.8 will help bring any voip support or api? If not, any suggestions for voip client?
I've tried the Ozeki sdk windows phone example, it's useless.. the client only actually interfaces with its own server app.
It's shocking to see basically every voip app on market all only connect to specific voip services that you have to sign up for, and nothing with custom settings =\
Thanks

Hi,
I'm looking for an app that allows you to connect to your own VoIP server of choice and not a predefined server, and Viber doesn't do that.
OctroTalk does allow you to add your own sip server, but it doesn't work, doesn't even try to connect (at least any traffic leaving the phone)
Ozeki SDK sort of works, but they want $700 for it and i have not gotten their demo to work over wifi yet =\

Brief Introduction:
BlackBerry Connect allows you to have access to the BlackBerry's push e-mail functions as well as receive BlackBerry Messenger IMs from BlackBerry users. This program does not allow you to send new IMs from your device.
BlackBerry Application Suite (BAS) allows you to run a virtual BlackBerry on your Windows Mobile device. This allows you to access the functions of many BlackBerry applications including BlackBerry Messenger, but is currently being testing on on GSM models.
Now, my main goal is to find someone that can allow BlackBerry Messenger to have full functionality on a Windows Mobile CDMA device. I don't care about any other application.
Can anybody take on this project and succeed? Theoretically it is possible we just need someone with the knowledge to do it.
Who can help out the many that are unable to help themselves?
bump any news on this?

I believe this would require someone at RIM to be involved as you would need a BlackBerry PIN number, which would get you access to their server. There is an app out there which allows you to receive BB messages but other than what has been developed by RIM nothing I am aware of that will allow you to send.
It's not possible on any non-RIM device.
The PIN you get when you sign up for bb-connect is only used an as a means of identifying your account in the RIM provisioning tool.

Hey, I was wondering if anyone knows how to make the sprint touch pro compatible to a work account? I contacted the people that handle the work email accounts and they said my phone isn't a supported device but the blackberry is so I thought there might be a way to make it so I can get my work email. Also, how do I go about removing my hotmail account from my email, I have tried but not had luck. If this is easy, I apologize in advance but I am new to all of this.
Have you tried Blackberry Connect?
I have and I absolutely can not get it to work on Sprint.
Anyone been able to get Blackberry Connect software to work on a Sprint TP?
I have tried everything available at http://www.sems.org/entry.asp?ENTRY_ID=276 and several versions that are not there as well. Someone has go to be able to solve this issue...

By work e-mail are you referring to an Exchange Server? If so, all you have to do is set up the e-mail account via Active Sync (on your device, not the PC). You will need certain information such as Username, Password, Domain (Name of the server), and server address (ie webmail.yourcompany.com).
I have never tried BB Connect, but it can't hurt to try it out.
Good luck!

Some companies, like mine unfortunately, fall for the Blackberry Enterprise Server propaganda and opt to manually disable the OTA Exchange Server connection and instead force all mobile devices to connect through BES... The big problem is that Blackberry devices suck, as recognized by Blackberry, for which they created Blackberry Connect Software so that your WinMo phone can connect to BES. My problem is that Sprint will not allow me to add Blackberry Service to my WinMo phone... So I am trying to find out if anyone knows a way around this? I am sure there are some Sprint pros here.

Just ask your IT department to set you up for pop3 or IMAP.
A company that disables OTA Exchange server access and forces Blackberry would never go for IMAP or POP....

Not true, I know firsthand... Besides, it wouldn't hurt to ask them.
Can you access your Exchange server via the web? If you can access owa.<yourcompanyname>.com to get your email via a browser then you can setup Active Sync on your device.
I am using my Sprint Touch Pro to get my Exchange mail/appts/tasks. Our official policy is that only BB are supported but it doesn't necessary mean that you can't use it. What I had to do was install a couple of certs to allow syncronization but you may not need to - depending on what CA your company is using.

I do have access to owa.mycompany.com, I have grabbed the cert from this site and attempted to connect this way, however, there is no documentation out there for how to do this, so I may have done it incorrectly. Can you detail how you did this?

PM me your owa.<yourcompany>.com address (if you are not comfortable with posting it here) and I will take a look at the certs information that your company is using and walk you through it. If you can access owa site, you should be able to sync with no issues.
System SEVEN
I had the same issue, unable to connect my Sprint Touch Pro to my company Exchange server. The IT department wouldn't budge on granting me access.
I now use System SEVEN 'Out of Office' since January and haven't looked back; It works perfectly for me and syncs everything. Check it out at www.seven.com.
what do i need to do to set up my work email on my touch pro... and where do i get the correct certs from?.
bump... i still need help w/ this! anyone please?
Can you tell me what error are you getting when you set up your exchange sync?
Edit: If your error with missing certificates, then by looking at your owa site I can tell that you need to have these public certificates installed: click here to download
Download the file above, unzip it and you will see three verisign certs. Copy them onto your phone and click on each to install them. Try to sync to your server and let me know what happens.
I wonder if there are IM applications working on Streak.
I am mostly interested in Live Messenger and Google Talk.
Are there any native applications for these networks ?
If not, what are the suggested apps for both IM networks.
I'd prefer to use apps which are officially supported by either the IM network or Dell.
Thanks.
there's tons that work, doubt any are supports or endorsed though.
Personally I settled on nimbus as it does all the networks I use..
well, thanks. But isn't there even any google talk client ?
As Android is google's OS, I'd think we should have Gtalk natively.
And I dislike all-in-one IM clients.

yes there is gtalk..
it should be built in..
have a look through the marketplace to find what you need.
FRING
Use Fring, this provides both MSN and Gtalk and many more. It also offers free video talks for Fring users.
thanks forthe fring suggestion.
but does it route all IMs through their own server ?
if yes, I don't want that.
I personally use meebo as I haven't had much trouble with it at all. It supports multi client too such as msn, yahoo and aim. I have also used fring it was great as I can video call using skype but now since skype removed there service from fring I haven't used it.
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
but really, for fring and meebo, can you say that they directly send IM to the original network and not route them over their own proxy ?
Google talk is installed as default

You can't, and probably never will be able to, now Microsoft have bought Skype.
That sawks, why did i bought a ePad if this cam is useless
Don't u think any developer gonna do something wit it? debugging the skype system file?
It's not useless. Lots of other apps use the camera. The whole world doesnt revolve around Skype you know. Have a search.
Yes, is true.But all of my contacts use mostly skype to communicate with each other
Btw,Gtalk work with cam? for Asus ePad.
Of course.

Actually, there is a beta Skype for Android with video. I don'tshare your opinion that Microsoft will kill any enhancements for Skype. Incidentally, th y do have a Bing app that is quite good.
If nothing else, MS buying Skype will give Skype a lot of resurces that they did not have. The N900 has had Skype video for over a year and the ANdroid beta is pretty much based on that Maemo one.
The best thing about the MS/Skype is that you will see conferencing and othe rgoodies in Outlook, Office and many other products.
Ah well that's up to you, but it makes perfect business sense for MS to use it as a selling point for their own WP7 handsets, so i highly doubt it will ever see a full release on android. Yes you're right though, there was a beta out ages ago for it. Anyway... time will tell... we shall see.

The only video calling app under the sun that works for all of Android, iPhone, and Desktop right now is Yahoo Video Chat. That is it, all nada.
All other apps only work with some combination of 2 or 3 of the above, or are voice only.
Android has never been a priority for Skype, for god only knows what reason. They would rather develop for IOS even though it has fewer devices, even though they distribute their app for free.
How about ooVoo?

This isn't entirely true. You can use Google Talk's Video Chat on all three, but on iOS devices and earlier Android versions (pre-GB) you have to use a third party app called Vtok. Not perfect, but it works. I should admit that I don't use video chat really ever, so I can't comment on the quality, etc

Google Talk's video chat does not work on the desktop unless the person you are trying to call just happens to magically be logged into GMail. This is because their desktop app for whatever crazy reason does not have video chat support, only GMail does.
Can you tell I am frustrated? The thing that gets my goat so much is that MSN Messenger is one of the most widely used video chat apps in the world, that is what everyone I know runs and uses - yet they have NEVER made an Android or iPhone video chat client in the past 4 years. Heck they don't even have one for Windows Mobile or Windows Phone 7! And people wonder why Microsoft is always lagging behind - they don't even know how to keep up with the mobile marketplace.
Again, from my experience the only widely used one that works on all 3 is yahoo chat. oooVoo has clients but I honestly have never tried it because trying to find others with an ooVoo account is like finding a needle in a haystack.

And in order to initiate video chat via Skype with someone on the desktop, you have to magically install a bloated Skype client application, open it, and hope that Skype isn't currently down.
I don't understand your complaint. Using Gmail as your primary client for instant messaging/voice chat/video chat on the desktop means you don't have to install any extra applications, and their service is way more reliable than Skype. And if you don't want to be stuck with having to manually log into Gmail every time you open your browser, you can set the browser to automatically open Gmail and log you in. It's no different from any other set of chat protocols, it's just been engineered to live inside the browser so that Google wouldn't have to write a separate application for each operating system. This is why Google abandoned further development on the official Google Talk client; it's just unnecessary when the browser is capable of the same thing.
You know what else makes Gmail better than anything else? As long as you're on a desktop computer, you get free outgoing calls to anywhere in the United States.

Er....
Typically, if a bunch of people you know like to be able to video call each-other, they will all have an application installed. If Skype is installed it sits in the tray, always. A contact can initiate a call with you any time.
With GTalk, they'd have to open a chat session, and get you to go to gmail, etc etc. It really is very sub-optimal. I don't know why Google has not added video to their desktop client, there have been bugs for it for YEARS now.
The browser is great for a lot of things, but one of the things it can't currently do properly is run background daemon-type applications that should be available 24/7, such as a messenger client.

I do use GMail for this as well, but this is a total side conversation and really has nothing to do with the task at hand. As well, this is another feature that should be in the desktop client.
Hi!
I have a rooted Xperia M dual (C2005) with factory firmare (4.2.2). Installed Afwall+ and blocked all network activity except Firefox and K9mail.
But there is still network usage (Android OS).
There is a blog post about this, but I can't link it. Google on "How to debug/examine data usage leaks in Android using iptables"
Does somebody have an idea how can I block these types of data transfer?
Thank you,

Last time this kind of issue popped up from a few days ago, it was because of tethering. Do you tether? And sometimes the Android OS reads traffic from other apps and is included there. Like for instance, you use K-9. If you use it to access your Google account for mail, that could explain the data traffic there. I'm not an expert in these matters though, so might be a better answer out there.

Why could a @gmail e-mail account in a 3rd parity e-mail client make traffic on the OS level?

Weird. Can't even imagine not having a Google account on my devices. lol But most of the IP addresses were Google's so, was assuming that the OS would detect that and thought it might be linked to a Google account and you mentioned having 2 apps and one of them was an email. Stretching a bit for the answer. lol But android is funny and doesn't necessarily work the same across different updates, carriers, and manufacturers, so this kind of stuff can be tricky.
