Text to Speech on Texts and Incomming Calls - Help! - Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading

Ok I have windows mobile 6 - but for some reason Im not getting the text to speech on Texts and incomming calls. It use to work on my phone, but I got a replacement and now wont work. I tried searching to see if theres an update I need or something and came up empty. Any ideas?

sounds like it might've been a feature of a program...most likely windows voice commander...which does come default on the t-mobile stock rom...

Sheesh Im an idot. Your right. It was in the settings for the voice commander. Thanks dude!

Orange Voicemail icon Gone!!!

Hi all,
After I did the ROM upgrade to the official HTC WM6, everything works fine, well apart from the GPS, which I never managed to get it working and the icon that I should get when I have a voicemail. Now I get a text message with this "[email protected]" characters? Any ideas.
Thanks in advance.

I got the same problem..
the mobile however should still be able to recognize it as a voice mail message. You just get an extra messages in your SMS messages folder
A kludge that works for me:
create a contact with the mobile number of "[email protected]" (just save it to your contacts) with a name like "Voice mail Notification"
install wm6_threader (find on this forum) and it will create a thread per contact!!
works better than original.. why? cause you have history similar to
incoming calls
outgoing calls
missed calls
but for SMS.
In Canada at Rogers Wireless we get additional SMS messages for missed calls when our mobiles are off.
I called it "Operator Notifications"
I also use it for SMS sent from Microsoft, Google and Yahoo. One per website.
The attached cab fixed it for me a while ago.
Not sure whether you need to install the sdkcerts before or not, so I include them just in case.
Reboot after installing.
The voicemail fix is included within rabdo's 1.6 cab for Orange UK network setup. (Also includes the necessary certs).
If you are on Orange UK, I recommend that (I use it with every flash....)

Incoming/outgoing calls to people in MyFav 5 not being logged

I decided to post this in a new thread. Sorry if it was the wrong thing to do.
I installed some of the cabs found here, specifically the HTC plugins
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=326655
After performing the mods, the call history is not logging any calls to/from people that are in my fave 5 anymore. So I thought maybe the actual My Fav 5 program is logging the calls now, but no, it's not.
Anyone else experiencing this? The today screen plugin for missed calls does not increment by one when i have a missed call from someone in my fave 5, the call history does not log any of my fave 5 calls, and the My Faves program does not log them anymore either.
Any have any suggestions? What could have caused this problem? One of the HTC cabs I installed maybe?
Thank you in advance!

I'm really stumped here. This is my last try to bump the thread up in hopes that someone has answer.

hmm? My MyFaves is setup correctly. The problem is that my phone doesn't report/log any calls that are to or from people in my My Faves list. It reports/logs all other calls though.
I guess since all calls to myfaves people are free ... the phone doesn't register the calls or minutes used to those people so they aren't accounted for in any type of logs.
if you're running a custom rom, they wont be accounted for through any type on log on your phone
only way to track is through my-tmobile.com
I'm not running a custom ROM, just the HTC cabs and the pagepool hack.
It's disappointing because I don't know when someone from my My Fave 5 called me. It doesn't report it as a missed call! I'm not really trying to track the calls, I just want to be notified when I have a missed call.

I have the exact same problem. I have installed the same things. NOTHING in the call history involving anyone on fave 5. A fix for this would be huge for me. If anyone in my fav 5 calls and doesn't leave a message, it never tells me I have a missed call, and it never shows in the history. VERY frustrating.

Yeah that's the problem! I can't even find the calls from within the actual My Fav Program. The only thing listed in the log section are the text messages.
Something happened and we could really use a fix!
I got somewhere... someone sent me a private message and explained that they removed the "+" sign from the contacts.
Well I've tried to remove the country code, the plus sign, and tried formatting the number is different ways. So far I have gotten the outgoing calls to be logged, but if you call the person using the htc favorite people plugin or the contact manager. Outgoing calls are still not logged when calling via the myfave program.
I keep trying different things. Would someone mind sharing the format of the numbers in their contact manager and then also the format of the numbers in the myfave program? Thanks
I just edited the my favs contact number directly from the contact program (not the my favs program) with ####### no spaces, it automatically reformatted it to (xxx)xxx-xxxx, and it logs both incoming and outgoing calls fine from the 5 tab favorite contact screen. I don't have touch flo installed just have the regular interface skinned with the 5 tab, Pocket CM contact list, the htc dialpad, and the htc new default theme. It took me a few mins just messing with the contact number to get it working, but once it works, it works.

Ok..it seems to log outgoing calls that way....but no luck on incoming, what about missed calls? I seem to only have luck on it working when I dial them.
Also, when they call, their number shows up with their name and the "1(xxx)...." before it, even though the "1" isn't in the number in contacts. That probably has something to do with it...but I can't seem to fix that.
After editing them from my contacts, I still see they have the +1 in myfaves, which also seems to be having an effect.
For anyone that might know...
Is there a way I could just remove the myfaves application, which is probably a main cause of it not working right? I can just call them from my contacts or the home page contacts, which works for me if it means missed calls will show. So is it possible to just remove the application altogether? I assume it would still work because I could still access the numbers (and change them if necessary) online.
Welllllllllllllll.......
I went back, hard reset my wing, installed the stock t-mobile RUU. I then added things back one by one figuring I'd figure out which thing was causing my problem. It seems the pagepool is causing SOME problem (it doesn't NOTIFY me when I miss a call), but now even with everything I previously had installed, all calls show up in call history. I don't mind that it's not notifying me, as long as I can do a quick click into call history and see if I missed anything, so all is well now, I guess. I added my home phone # into my fav 5 (since I had an empty spot open anyway) and tested with that, calling back and forth over and over...it all seems to work fine. I'll be 100% sure when my gf or one of my friends calls me tomorrow, but it looks like I fixed it for now.
Start > Programs > myFaves > Menu > myFaves Settings > Refresh myFaves
If that doesn't solve your problems, log in to your My T-mobile account on the web and at least make sure you aren't getting charged regular minutes for your faves.

Sending text message after refusing call?

Hi,
this is not strictly Kaiser specific I guess.
I recall sometime ago seeing a feature which looked useful. When somebody calls you and lets say you are busy, meeting or driving etc.
You get a prompt to refuse the call and at the same time send a pre-defined text message back to them straight away.
So they get put through to your voicemail and also recieve a text from you to say "Sorry I'm in a meeting, will get back to you ASAP" . Is this a WM 2005+ feature?
Also another one
Is it possible to only send your caller id to people that are in your contacts list when making calls? Anybody else does not see your number?
Thought I saw that one on my old XDA iis?
Thanks
Mike
the text msg one seems useful. what if they are calling from a landline and not mobile like with most businesses? will the sms bounce back to you and says unable to send or something? just curious.

Well I seem to recall it was up to you what you did with the call, ie based on the number ringing . In the uk at least its possible to spot a mobile number easily.
I seem to think a small menu came up with several choices.
i don't know if this app will help. I've never used it but ran across it a few weeks ago.

I bet something like this could be down with MortScript... I'll research it, i've been wanting to get into MortScript, this would be a perfect test.

There are several apps (commercial ones) that do this. PhotoContacts Pro does it. And I think a couple of other phone utils do also (SPB or VITO may make one, don't remember).

Yes that looks very much like it.
I was sure it was part of WM already. Must have got it wrong.
Thanks, I'll check it out when I get my WM device soon!

Call Firewall
I'm using call firewall, it's a great app imo....
Photo Contact Pro has a reject/auto SMS feature. As for caller ID, My Kaiser has the following function. Go to phone, Menu tab, Options, Services, highlite Caller ID & press get settings. It then allows me the option to:
1. Send ID to everyone
2. Send ID to contacts only
3. Do not send ID
Maybe this is AT&T specific, but thought I'd throw it out there.

Only thing with ''call firewall'' is that when you are on a call if a call comes in it disconnect both the call your on and the one coming in... my experience.
There is also Magicall that does this:

How to re-enable Text Messages??

Hey guys,
my bad lemme clarify the situation:
I just got my tilt two days ago. I did a hard and soft reset to remove all the at&T bloatware. I installed textr for threaded text messaging, when i couldnt receive or send any messages I got frustrated and uninstalled it. I then installed VitoTechnologies's SMS Chat. Now I can send text messages out, but Im still having trouble receiving them. Also, before I did a hard & soft reset I was able to receive text messages in the default HTC messaging program. I also installed Kaiser Tweak and was playing around with it. If anyone has any insite into what I should do. Should I perhaps go to the at&t store and ask someone? im at a loss cuz im payin for unlimited text messages but I cant receive any, only send them out. ppl tell me they get my text messages, and when they send me texts i dont receive them now....HELP!
Thanks in advance,
Himalayasplaya
i think it may have something to do with comm manager?? again im a total newbie to this please help me connect the dots.
Disabled in the sense, can you get into inbox atleast? You need to specify us more details like what exactly you get or where you get stuck actually, or what happens when you try sending a message.
Regards,
Carty..
i dunno wut was happening cuz i could receive non-verizon texts, but verizon texts didnt come thru. I think it was cuz i installed a cracked version of textr.. i just uninstalled it and installed sms threader and i can receive everything now. does anyone know a better texting program that implements threads and ez use of smileys?

Urgent help needed!! should i just do another hard reset, followed by a soft reset and just reinstall the apps and settings? I'm not trynna void my warranty by flashing my rom.
If you can't wait for someone to come with an idea, then yes, hard-reset is the way to go. And don't install bogus SMS handling programs next time

sending tones during an active call

can somebody please tell me how can I send DTMF tones during a call? I searched in everywhere, but couldn't find any clear answers. do I need to install another application?
thanks for ur answers guys..
(HTC Diamond, wm6.1)
as i understand dtmf is enabled by default. i use it all the time with my phonebank.
yes it is enabled in my phone too, but there is no option to send DTMF tones. I am not talking about hearing those tones while dialling a number. what I mean is I made a phone call and connected, and then I want to send a number from my contacts. this is very practical when using the calling cards.
thanks
Press the keypad soft key(left) to bring the phone keypad.
I know it's not "hearing" the tones, as I said I use them to get access to my bank via the phone and that naturally involves quite a few numbers to be received by the other end. And this is carried out rather silently. Unfortunatly I haven't seen a "send number with DTMF" option. Maybe you indeed have to get an extra app to get that to work. The only place i've ever seen an option to even choose DTMF being enabled whatsoever is in schap's advanced config. I can vaguely recall such an option on an old Nokia pone. Sorry though for not being able to help.
ok, thanks for your comments. I appreciate if anyone lets us know if finds such a program.
I use DTMF tones to navigate in my voicemail and everything works fine here.
