Kaiser and Skype - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Hi All
I have a question, does kaiser now fully suport skype?, right now I'm using TyTN and Skype works only on back speaker.
Best regards
PiNiO

That is not an TyTN or Kaiser issue. This is related to windows mobile. So use the headset. No other chance.

Works for me for some reason. Perhaps because it's a recent version of Skype?

Umm, it works, but it plays sound thru the rear speaker or a wired or BT headset. It doesn't work thru the normal earpiece of the phone.

You are right! I was pressing the thing up to my head and was hearing the external speaker *through* the thing. What a stupid WM6 shortcoming. Hope they fix it soon.

And the problem with this is it causes the other party to hear a bad echoing. Using a headset is the best workaround.

Disable speakerphone repeat during voice speed dial?

I'm not really sure why it does this. I don't really want, or need everyone in the vicinity to hear the phone repeat out loud to me who I'm calling. I'd like to change it so it only repeats through the earpiece. And since I don't use a headset, that's not an option for me.
Anyone know if there is a registry setting or other fix to turn this off? I've searched but haven't found anything. Thanks in advance. This has driven me crazy since the 8525.
Nobody has any ideas? I really need to figure this one out...
I'm in TOTAL agreement. Don't need my phone screaming back to me what I just said to it.
btw..loved your last album jack.
Ditto this. Let me go 1 further. I get my voice mails attached as .wmv files to my outlook emails. When I click to play one, it opens in the windows player and the voicemail comes through the speaker phone. Like other said, I really don't want everyone hearing my voicemails this way. Is there a way to get windows player to also output sound to the headphone.
I guess what we're all looking for is some sort of global program that lets us select where the sound for ALL apps goes:
1) handset
2) speakerphone
3) bluetooth
Thoughts? Suggestions?
thx

Never heard that one before. Hahaha.
Yea, I've seen many threads in different forums about this same issue, but no one seems to know a fix for it. I'm glad, at least, that I'm not alone on this.
Maybe if there was a way to programatically disable speakerphone, launch the app, and as soon as it is closed, re-enable speakerphone?
Anyone else have any ideas?
try searching for BTAudio, it redirects all audio out to BT headset, i used it on my S200 (Prophet) but i think it will work on the Kaiser

BTAudio is in the sticky thread for the Kaiser CAB Collection.
But will BTAudio direct all audio to the handsets speaker (not the speakerphone) if I want it to instead of the bluetooth headset?
Exactly. I use my bluetooth headset rarely. In those instances, I'd rather all audio going to the speakerphone INSTEAD go to the internal handset speaker.

BTAudio isn't working for me. Especially since I don't have a headset. Does anyone know how to turn off speakerphone using an EXE, shortcut, or registry setting?
C'mon guys, anyone??? This really drives me crazy. I need the voice dialer to confirm through the handset's speaker, not the speaker phone. Help!

Newbie: Skype over phone instead of speaker

Hello
I just installed Skype for smartphones on my new S730 and the connection works like a charm. However, so far the sound is only played over the phone's loudspeaker. Is there a way to change that, so I can skype using the S730 like a normal phone?
Thanks.
Rob
Currently it's not possible. When calling with Skype, just turn round the phone.
use headphones
I have another question. Is there a way to use Bluetooth handsfree with skype. When i connect my bluetooth handsfree and make call over skype, the sound come from loadspeekers. Works only with wired (headphones) handsfree.
The "issue" is that the API [for sound output] used for VoIP is the same as the Windows Mobile OS (like media player, ringers...) use; not the same the phone uses.
thanks for the answers, guys!
that sucks! any hope this will get resolved sometime soon?
cheers!
rob
Oh, I don't think its solved "soon". Or somewhere in the future. I have had a qtek 2020i and already in those ancient days, I had the problem that it was not possible to use a BT-headset for voip-connections.
For the 730:
Whats about using a stereo-bluetooth headset? Its made only for listening music?!
So, could work for voip/skype too?!?

I suppose that would work, depending on which API VoIP uses to output sound. If it is the same that music uses, then yes, it would work. I'm going to guess it is since wired the stereo headphones work.

Skype audio on tilt through a bt headset?

I've read that skype only uses the speaker phone on the tilt when making voip calls is this correct? If so is there anyway to get the audio through the phone's ear piece or a bluetooth headset?
Try a search through BTAudio or BTToggle. THat will allow you to do it.

Holy crap! This thing worked! I tried it before and did a soft reset, but it didn't work... Jut tried it now after a couple of days without doing anything, and it worked...
Thanks buddy! I know this thread is old, but I'm sure there are people like me wondering if this thing works...

Diamond renders A2DP useless

Another day, another bug..
We tout a2dp as a killer feature, but whats the point when after listening to music you take or make a call, only for the music to resume by blaring from your PHONE SPEAKER afterwards, prompting you to soft reset just to get your headphones working again. This is very embarassing and did NOT Happen with my old HTC Touch.
What gives HTC?

i've heard about this bug.
use coreplayer (from my experience) or another civilized, technically advanced app. forget about the original prog. i can add that i am amazed by the quality of a2dp. i don't have any skip. the quality is the same as the wired headphones.
please don't give me the usual "but i bought...and i expected...". get used to it. diamond is strong in some fields and not so strong in others.
maybe they'll (xda-dev) find a cure. let's hope
Doesent happen with my phone ... works like a charm for me..
Even if I connect to bluetooth amplifire and someone is calling, it pauses and I take the call on the phone... and then it plays again when i hang up...
same thing here also as darth

No im sorry. There is no excuse. This is poor quality control and id expect better from HTC.
Either the Diamond supports A2DP or it doesnt. There is no inbetween, thats slack.
I expect to be able to use the official player as its quick to launch and easy to jump to a specific album/artist.
Now I cannot walk out and about, fire up A2DP and enjoy music while being able to take calls.
Now I cant even accept calls on the train if I have been listening to music.
Its a joke and it needs to be sorted.
We mock iPhone for not having A2DP but whats the point - we dont have it (working) either!

Hold on.. lets get something straight, you think its UNREASONABLE for me to expect A2SP to actually work.... It worked just fine on my old HTC Touch and yet my Diamond cant seem to do the job properly.
Instead of sticking your head in the sand and being in flat out denial about the state of the Diamond, why dont you acknowlege the problem and work WITH people like me to try and find a solution.
lol
is it possible that it works on certain headsets than others...?
i have an i.tech and it works fine...however quality itself isnt too great...
but i dont have the music blaring via speakers problem after answering a phone call....
maybe release to us
rom version & headset model?
Same problem here using a BT Sony-Ericsson headset. Latest FR official ROM. And I agree it's very annoying.
Now I cannot walk out and about, fire up A2DP

"Fire up A2DP" ?, LOL. You make it sound like it happens in a push of a button.
The process of enabling A2DP takes some dozen clicks deep into the ancient parts of the WM interface.

Nothing gives dude - I use Sony DS-970 and A2DP works great I use it all day, quality is great never had a single issue - phone and A2DP works flawlessly i.e jumping between call and music and vice-versa is flawless...

For me too btw, with DS-980...
So we have people claiming this problem does not exist and we have others saying it does.
Surely this needs to be investigated further right? Because If A2DP isnt working correctly then I conisder that a vital feature lost.
Im using the Sony DRBT30Q with the latest official UK WWE Diamond ROM and let me add that this worked FLAWLESSLY with my old original HTC Touch.
i don't know if htc alone is to be blamed for these issues....A2DP is a very volatile technology which needs support from all parties involved (i.e the Headset vendor, the Phone vendo and the OS vendor)...and in your case, any of these can be responsible for the problems ur facing
i've had a similar problem with my del bh200 bluetooth headset...the music sounds pretty decent (in fact, i distinctly feel it played better on my earlier HTC Touch elfin)...however, whenever a call comes in, the headset switches off and i have to pair it again...which means we can't use it in handsfree mode....
the same headset however works with several other models in both handsfree and wireless stereo mode
after searching a bit, i found that the problem lies with the microsoft bluetooth stack...so summing up, investigate a bit before naming your thread "diamond renders a2dp useless"

No such problems here.
SwBL's latest rom with Plantronics Voyager 855 headset
Just start media player and hit main button and A2DP starts up, Incoming calls work fine, music mutes and starts up as soon as the call ends.
Loving the new headset

Sprint Diamond Stock Firmware with Jabra BT8010 1.4 firmware (latest)
Music and calls work fine... Sprint TV doesn't play nice with A2DP and the headset randomly starts playing nothing at times.
I think HTC and Sprint fixed music playback with A2DP but left the other quirks of the Bluetooth Stack for later.
I remember a similar problem on my HTC Vogue, but that fixed right up after the GPS REV A Update.
I didn't want to open a new thread, but this does have to do with bluetooth. Does any body know, when the SE IS-800 are coming out, because the release date of "late 2008" is a bit vague...
Can this have something to do with radio rom version?
I use Sony DS-980.
I had v1.00.25.05 and upgraded to v1.00.25.08 and last time I received a phone call I had to answer the call from my Diamond and after the call the sound came from the phone speaker. I can't remember this happened when I used .05 version

Making Phone calls from your Gtab

Nettalk seems to partially work on the Gtab. I just side loaded it onto my xoom and it works perfectly however on the gtab it hangs up after a while. Just seeing if the community knows of a fix maybe even as easy as a external mic?
Here is the apk you can download from the market for free!!
There is a microphone though..
hmmm i wonder why i can hear the person on the other end but they cant hear me but on my xoom it works both ways??

Don't know but I wonder if its the same reason Shazam doesn't even setup for me
I can make calls but they end after 30 secs for some reason and the person on the other end cant hear me? I was wondering if it was a mic issue not hearing anything so it shuts off the call of a programing issue since the xoom has 3G capabilities but the website says it can make calls over wifi?

no microphone??!! I use my Gtab skype with my gf everyday... hmm, guess she really can't hear me in the other end, and she's just pretending that she knows what i'm saying... because there's no microphone...
Yes, the gtab does have a microphone.
Now what might be happening here is what happened to me using Skype. For whatever reason, when placing a Skype phone call, the microphone is on mute. Hitting the little button on the bottom left enabled the mic. Calls then went smoothly.
I have to re - enable the mic for each call. A small inconvenience really
OK good grief LOL i just got my gtab so I am not that familiar with it and was thinking out loud about it not having a mic LOL has anyone side loaded this apk like i did and used it? I hit the mute button and it does nothing?
Edit--- Ok the problem may be my router. I have a Belkin and it is listed as one of the bad ones that only enables one way voip calling going to try tethering.
Maybe a dumb question, but did you try using speaker phone? BTW, which rom are you running?
It works for me. Must hit speaker phone. This is really cool. Calukins and Pershoots overclock kernal.
Update: this program works but the person on the other end hears everything they say after they say it.
I hit the speaker phone tab in the nettalk program and i can hear the person on the other end but they can not hear me. I am running vegan ginger edition

To test it I called 1800555TELL and on the speaker it was getting confused pretty easily. But with a headset plugged in it seemed to be fine. I expect my bluetooth would have been even better but didn't try it. My quick testing on other things tells me the headset jack has no mic in or it isn't switched on. Its just headphones.
Were you able to talk to someone and have them hear you? I can hear them but they can not hear me? I am running vegan gingeredition and do not know if there is something in it that is making it not work?

Yes TELL ME is voice response. So I said "News desk" and it went to the news. Then I said "Top stories" and it read me the top stories. You could probably try bing411 if you'd rather.
yup works perfectly. because the mic is close to the speakers the mic can pic up sound from the speakers and give it the eco effect. when i use it with headphones it works perfectly.
What rom are you running cause i have vegan gingeredition and i dont know if it is the rom or me but the everything works except the person on the other line can not hear me, gonna try an external mic

I'm on Vegan Ginger so not that. Maybe get Volume Master or something off the market and see if you have some gain level turned down or something? I can't recall if it controls mic gain or not. Or try a bluetooth headset.
Ok thank you will do!

Doesn't seem to work for me on calkulin's rom. It just sits there when I try to dial out and eventually stops trying.
