Switch between VoIP and GSM - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

First post, here we go! http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/smile.gif I've been keeping track of this site for quite some time now, found all the info I was looking for but this:
I have VoIP enabled on my beautiful Diamond, and am able to make phone calls (through the speaker on the top, but who cares, it works http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif), but I can't switch between VoIP and GSM if I have TouchFlo enabled as the link is on the Today Screen.
So I was looking for an application which could do the same, but could be linked to e.g. the Start Menu. Or - even better - an application which allows me to switch between VoIP and GSM from the dialer.
Couldn't find any app how could do such a thing, maybe the knowledgeable people here have some suggestions? http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

wish it's helpful...
one app called 'mtoday' may be helpful in your case. what it can do is to add a new Today panel to your device (then you will have 2 Today panels) and allow you to configue them independently (so you can keep TF in 1st Today and use normal interface in the 2nd). finaly, you can use it to switch between 2 Today very easily.
only things you should to do is switch to 2nd today and active voip (then you could turn back to 1st today as you like, voip will working well in background. once you want to turn off it, do the process again).
it works very well on my diamond, you can find this app by google (very easy). hope you enjoy it!

SPB Mobile Shell w Kaiser usefull?

I was researching SPB mobile shell because i heard alot of good news about it. Now most of the stuff that it offers is already given from the get go on the Kaiser.
Is there anything else on Mobile shell that is not offered already by the Kaiser that is a must have or very helpful?
While i'm at it, is there any other good programs that you would think are 'must have'?
Thank you in advance!
i like mobile shell and also diary and weather from spb but i am having a few issues. The weather tab is black text and doesnt stand out from the black background. Also, when i have spb weather installed i cannot figure out how to resize the weather tab so diary goes up further. I would just use the htc home screen but the dang clock is too big
Subscribe to Club Spb and you'll find the solution to your black text problem. There's been a release that addresses the problem.
I use the following:
P+ for the battery indicator, safe mode, and PIE extensions. Everything else is off.
Shell for the Today plug-in. The menu thing and wake-up screen are off.
Phone suite as a tab (first) in Shell.
Diary as a tab (second) in Shell showing only calendar, tasks, special events.
Weather as a tab (third) in Shell.
Shell's 'main' tab as number four.
On my Today screen, I have the date, then Shell. Auto-hide is off for Shell, and Diary is set to like 172 for height.
It's the perfect setup.
Nice indeed, i'll use the same setup as yours for a bit and see how convenient it is. (however i don't see the use of installing P+ in order to have the battery bar since mobile shell show the battery icon with the percentage).
Thanks for the idea
Oh, will have to look for that black text fix, that must be pretty new. I prefer keeping Diary below the mobile shell stuff as it's my primary Today screen tool. I'm trying different apps for profiles, the SPB one is a bit too simplistic for me, and mobile shell already has things like photo quick dial.
There is definitely some overlap in features!
Phone suite works for me. I like the auto profiles (meeting marked as busy puts phone in silent mode, etc.) and other notifiers. edit: also forgot about radio on/off's on the plug-in.
I forgot to mention the close button for P+ - I use that all the time.
Used to be a die-hard Diary guy. Now I find myself just using the PocketInformant list view instead. It's easier / more detailed. I could probably remove Diary and miss nothing.
I used the SBSH stuff for a long time, too. Paired with WisBar Advanced. Didn't want to suck up that much memory / CPU on my new device.
The HTC Home plug in is great, but Mobile Shell is much, much more powerful, particularly if you pair it with other SPB products that it can use as plugins. I've got PocketPlus for a range of reasons, and having 4 Mobile Shell tabs + PocketPlus tabs means two to three tap access to everything I want.
I did like the HTC Home as a freebie, but the SPB stuff just goes much, much further.
I've tried SPB Phone Suite and it does not handle the radio/bt/wifi switching well. For now I am trying PhoneAlarm and it seems to be good. radio/bt/wifi switching works correctly. I also like that it is possible to have bt automatically switched on during a call (for using a headset) and then off after the call ends. This is a good power saver.
One question: If I disable the HTC Home plugin from the today screen in order to try SPB Mobile Shell, will the HTC plugin still be running (in the background) in program memory?
I have had ZERO issues with radio control using Phone Suite. Everything goes on and off as it should. Is it possible you're using an older version?

No, I downloaded the latest available from the SPB site. I also soft-resetted to be sure. Perhaps mine is a one-off case?
To be more precise, my problem with Phone Suite is that for example I am in Normal profile with Wifi off. I have a scheduled appointment that will trigger the Meeting profile, and Wifi is turned on with the Meeting profile. However Wifi is not being turned on with the Meeting profile or any other automatic profile. It works normally with an explicit manual profile change. Anyone experiencing the same issues with SPB Phone Suite?

So under the Automatic:Meeting profile, the selector for WiFi is "On" rather than "Unchanged?" And that's not causing WiFi to go on? I'd e-mail support and let them know. Since it's a new device on a relatively new OS, they may have some fixing to do.
Out of curiosity, I do have to ask why you're having that go on automatically, though. That's going to drain battery relatively quickly compared to standard operation. And when you're in a meeting do you always have a WiFi connection available? I typically don't, but I'm on client sites that either don't have it or have it but don't permit access. And if you're in a meeting, why are you surfing anyway?
I haven't noticed the issue myself. Do you have PA and PhoneSuite installed simultaneously?

I don't actually have the need for WiFi to automatically switch on with the Meeting profile. It's just that as a developer myself I tend to go over an application to see if all functionality is as it is supposed to be. It just sort of 'irritates' me when some things don't work as supposed.
At the moment I have Phone Alarm and Phone Suite installed simultaneously. However I actually tried out PhoneAlarm because of the issues with Phone Suite so PA is not the cause. I presently am trying PS just for the 'Reject and reply with SMS' functionality, and PA for all other profile functionality.

I'm not a developer, but do much the same to make sure that when I do want to use something, I can. I've a meeting coming up, so I'll change my profile as well and see if I get the same issue.
SPB is normally quite responsive to support issues, so I'd let 'em know and see what's what. They'll probably have a good answer for you.
Hi Leon100,
What version of PhoneAlarm are you using. Is it 1.62.
I am asking this because I tried using PA with my HTC Touch but I notice that with this installed very often the Touch fails to Switch On when I press the Power button. Most of the time needs a Soft Reset. I used the PAy Touch v2 skin and I suspect that the PA Task-Switcher is conflicting with the SPB Plus Task Switcher and causing this "Sleep-of-Death" problem. Do you know of a way to De-Activate the PhoneAlarm Task-Switcher.
will appreciate any help & suggestions

I just checked and noticed two things:
1. Automatic profiles don't "work" unless you've set the profile to "Automatic" on the PhoneSuite Today screen.
2. Once I did that, WiFi fired up for the profile as expected.
So I guess it's worth asking - did you select the "Automatic" profile?

Great, that was it. I thought that since the Meeting profile was an automatic one it would activate by itself. Thanks.
Another question now: Is it possible for bluetooth to be activated only during a call? PhoneAlarm has this facility but I did not manage to find it in PhoneSuite. It would be a power saving facility.

I have version 1.62. What do you mean by Task-Switcher? If it is the profiles that you mean then most of these can be deactivated, but there has to be at least the Normal profile available. The option to deactivate the normal profile is disabled. You can try to deactivate all profiles except the normal profile, soft-reset and see if this helps.

Not that I'm aware of, no. But I've always got my headset on and haven't run into battery issues, so I wasn't looking for it.
With BT 2.0, I haven't noticed a drain issue, but then I also always have second battery with me just in case.
I previously used SPB Mobile Shell on my rw6828 and had major battery drain problems (which stopped when it was uninstalled).
Is anyone seeing higher battery drain with SPB Mobile Shell on the Kaiser? thanks

I'm only using the Today plug-in part of Shell, and in general, I have to charge nightly.
Maybe this weekend I'll disable Shell and see how the battery life goes.

Unresolved Tilt Issues (Please Contribute)

Ongoing issues that need to be resolved - If you respond to any of these before you write any response PLEASE put the issue number at the top of your post, because this thread is going to get very large fast and this will help keep it somewhat organized, thanks.
#1: I have tried everything but can dump the time & battery icon off the title bar without alignment problems. Anybody find a key yet? Are we stuck creating new icon templates in black to save us from the alignment issue? Or has someone found a key to compensate the alingment loss from removing both time & battery status icons?
#2:Does Video Share work on the Tilt if you have an HTC ROM on it and are connecting with a Video Share enabled phone? (obviously this will only be applicable for people who live in the selected 3G networks for which Video Share is supported)
#3:When I make/recieve a call, and I try to access the top bar (start button) the top bar locks up. if I try a shortcut button to IE for example, IE loads but just says connecting... if I hangup the call, it redoes the 3G connection (it was 3G before I was on the call) and the IE works.
BUT the top bar is locked up. Start/3G icon, etc doesn't click. Only the "X" will work until I do a reboot.
#4
The "Buttons" setting only allows me to change the short press settings for 5 buttons. Elsewhere on this forum, there are instructions for adding the PTT button for both short press and long press, by adding registry keys 40C6 and 40C7. Can I add long press entries for other buttons?
Update!: According to HTC support, this is currently impossible. Sorry. (thanks deathace)
Update #2: Vito Button Mapper also enables push and hold functionality for the standard buttons (not PTT button) using the Start, Settings, Button Mapper. Also allows for customization of the soft buttons based on running application. Got to say that while Vito Button Mapper works, it's not that WM6 Pro friendly. In other words it works, but has some issues with icon display and uninstall. Hopefully HTC support will get their act together. (thanks Jim_R)
Update #3: Spb Pocket Plus 4.0.1 also allows for remapping of keys w/hold functionality, including PTT and works with WM6 (thanks _Alex_)
#5
Is there a way to choose radio frequency besides using Bandswitch? Meaning the setting would show up in the Phone Settings menu that allows Band Selection. Perhaps there are some registry edits out there?
Here is a cab file that replaces "PhoneSettings.Dll" with the one from the Rogers Canada Tilt Rom. and enables the Band Tab. You will be required to reset your phone after installation.
#6
There have been issues regarding connecting to WEP encrypted networks...if anyone else knows of these issues and a possible fix, please contribute...whitelisting the MAC address on the router has already been attempted (and failed).
This post has been moved and temporarily stickied.
Please be sure to visit the Wiki. Most of your questions can be answered there regarding the Tilt.
The previous thread, "The thread to address ALL TILT-specific questions" has been unstuck, but can still be used if required.
Have fun!
HTC steaming media seems to work on the TyTN II but not the tilt. of all the posts that I've read, and googled, only 1 person has said that their tilt works with streaming media is working, but not fully with every site, just a few. TCPMP with ytpocket seems to be the closest thing to a band aid. but this ony gets you youtube, not the other sites that work on a TyTN II with HTC SM.

Okay, Here's the deal. HTC streaming media is for RTSP files only. That means Pocket YouTube. Yes it works in the US, but you have to have the correct ID/User Agent for it to work correctly. Basically the Streaming Media Player is a license of Real Player. All stock Tilt have an EXE called Real.exe in windows directory. If you open it, it's the same as Streaming Media Player, Has the same Icon as Real Player, & the about screen calls it HTC Real Player.

errrrrr. If you flash the identical ROM on a TyTN II and a Tilt, how are the files in the windows directory any different?
I think you misread what I typed.
OK, after serching in many forums, i found that the problem is:
"When the device is protected by a password (Start/Settings/Lock), the start menu freezes after ending phone calls. In addition, the backlight turns off.
This only happens if the phone call is long enough (more than a few secs) for the display to turn off during the call. This is to prevent accidental button presses. When the phone call is ended the display should come back up, however, this is where bug seems to manifest itself. Somehow the password protection gets in the way and turns the display off and freezes the start menu.
The reason why this is serious (especially for business users) is that when you use MS exchange sync, many businesses enforce policies requiring a device password (common & recommended practice). This means that the option of turning the device password off does not exist. Therefore, using exchange sync (with security policies enforced) and making phone calls does not work."
So, acording to this, there are two solutions:
1º Sinple turn of pasword protection if you don't need it;
2º (found in modaco) Change a registry entry:
\HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\EnableFastDormantDisplay DuringCall
From "1" to "0" will stop it but be warned if you arent using a headset then the touch sensitive screen will be in operation throughout the call so you may end up with your ear triggering applications etc...

HTC Kaiser QuickGPS Fix (Error solution)
Just import this .reg file into your Kaiser registry:

Nasty Camera
My phone works ok I guess and I am pleased with it. But I miss not being able to take photos with it. I used my TYTN all the time primarily as a mobile video station and a camera. But this KAISER is a complete mess when it comes to taking photos.
My point is, can someone tell me how to turn off the auto focus is thats the problem or does anyone have any idea how to speed up the lens to capture time. It takes forever to set its focus. Oh, and don't start me on video capture as that IS the joke of the century.
I can't believe what a step back this KAISER is in comparison to its older brother the TYTN. I expected this phone to at least take a moderate picture. Why on earth is the 2nd camera better (VGA) than the 3MP main camera. It is completely crazy.
I digress and am off to cry now.
Hi all,
may I know if anyone had face this problem. Whenever we receive an SMS, it pops up as a notification at the bottom of the screen. But the notification normally have 2 options: Normally, reply/view on the left and menu on the right. For the left option, sometimes it is "reply" and sometimes it is "view". Is this normal? How can I change it to permanently as "view" only?
Thanks all in advance.

Hey, actually I have a problem synchronizing. I have been told that if a Kaiser is connected to a PC through Activesync, then the Kaiser could use the PC's Internet connection. And I think that is great, except mine won't. Instead my PC will try to use my Kaiser as a modem, even though it is already connected.... What can I do?

DoubleLauncher also includes similar functionality, but with even more options:
single tap, double tap, single hold, double hold, triple tap - 5 combinations per button - HTC may be right that it isn't possible with vanilla windows, but it is obviously possible to code something.
wifi vs AT&T
Sorry for asking a question that I am sure was already addressed (unfortunately I cannot find it).
How do I instruct my AT&T Tilt (Kaiser) to try to connect using WiFi when it is present rather then connect using AT&T GPRS, 3G whatever?
When I bought my phone in October, I got advice from Howard Forum to go to your site (http://forum.xda-developers.com/att...22&d=1191864241) to get a cab file. I did that, and it worked.
I had to replace my phone which was defective, and now I wanted to get the same cab file for the new phone but the link no longer works.
Your advice and help will be very much appreciated. If you prefer you can send me a private message to [email protected].
upgrade??
I was this close to jumping from the 8525 to the 8925 but advised not too: ATT rep says there are software and hardware issues that they are working on with HTC and IT guys say they've had issues as well.
What's the consensus here? is it worth the risk or should I wait a while longer for things to iron out?

Well, the Video Rendering sucks. All in all though, I have to say I really like the device. It's okay out of the box, but after tinkering & tweaking I have to say that I'm glad I moved to the Kaiser. The GPS is solid for me & after changing my DNS settings to OpenDNS the internet is fast. I tether a lot & get great speed on my laptop (when in HSPDA or 3G). Yess, there are some issues, but I think it's the best device around. I've had no problems with my Tilt or my TYTN II. It works really well with our Blackberry server & I get my emails fater on my device than on my pc.
The only issue for me again is the video. But it's mostly a work device for me, so vide isn't a big deal. Besides TCPMP playback is good enough for catching up on my missed episodes of House MD.
I'd say go for it.
Hi all,
I wonder if this is even consider a problem or bug. At the Today screen, there will be times when you are overflow with schedules. Then a scroll bar will appear at the right most of the screen(as shown below left). The scroll bar stretch all the way from the top of the screen to the bottom of the screen. Is it possible to change it to such a way that the scroll bar starts from the bottom of the Today plug-in to the bottom of the screen(as shown bottom right). Please kindly advice if this can be done.
Thanx
Cheers
eRic
You can use HHC (home plug-in config) to lock the home plug in. Then the scroll is just at the bottom. There is a registry setting to do the same thing, but I don't know what it is. The HHC is a great utility as you can back up the plug in and change the fonts and icons too.
OpenDNS
GSLEON, where does one change DNS settings to the OpenDNS settings? Thanks.
What can I do???
Hello all,
I am on my second Tilt now (on AT&T network) but I am still having voice clarity issues. Very choppy conversations at times, even when connected to a landline, but there are always at least 2 signal bars & 3G displayed. I have tried to disable the data before making calls, but so far I have seen no improvement. Could Active sync have something to do W/ my problem? It always seems to be running. Also, I am using the stock AT&T rom.
Any input provided pertaining to my issue is greatly appreciated.

Advanced Profile Prog?

Hey guys, I'm looking for a profile switcher that has the following:
(a) a today component (preferably just one line)
(b) allows for the selecting of a profile temporarily (meaning after xx minutes it would revert back to normal like MeetingMute did for WM2003)
(c) allows for the automatic flipping of the screen (e.g. car profile reverts the screen into landscape mode so I can lay my tilt on the dash)
I am aware of phoneweaver and spb phone suite, but they both lack the last component and I believe they dont allow for the temporary profile...any one got something like this?
Forgot to mention I need it on a 6.1 rom for Kaiser
Hmm, yeah. Last component could be tricky. I just bought Spb Phone Suite tonight. It does allow for temporary profiles but it works in intervals of 5, 10, 15, 30 and 60 minutes. You can also set up one of the automatic profiles to start and stop at specific times of the day. The only problem with that is that it can only be one specific schedule. All it would really be good for in my opinion is maybe setting it up to be silent during the hours you sleep or something.

As the title says, the latest version of PhoneWeaver will rotate your screen, but I don't think it allows temporary profiles like your description, (though it is a simple tap of the home screen plug in to change it manually to any profile, then back again).

I'm using PhoneWeaver (the latest version) and if I understand your requirement correctly, it fully supports temporary profiles. But you can install a fully functional demo for 30 days for free AFAIK.

I'll give the latest phoneweaver a shot tonight, the time I checked it was at version 1.1, so maybe 1.2 will have everything I need. Thanks for the suggestion, I'm still entertaining others just in case cause I really missed meeting mutes interval silent feature which was great if I only wanted to mute it for 2 hours (i.e. at a movie) and wanted it back to normal after that.

I'm using v1.2.1 and in the profile definition on the "Profiles" tab I have an "Timeout" option. Meaning I can switch from profile A to B and if profile B has defined a timeout of 60mins it will automatically revert to profile A after that time.

I am aware of phoneweaver and spb phone suite, but they both lack the last component and I believe they dont allow for the temporary profile...any one got something like this?
Forgot to mention I need it on a 6.1 rom for Kaiser

I use WinMobileApps Profiles for Windows Mobile v2.0.0. You can set Portrait or Landscape for any profile, and it has a nice simple one line Today plugin. It doesn't have temp profile, but does have revert to scheduled. It also has a command line parameter that can run a specified program or script when you switch to a particular profile. Works on 6.1.
Ok looks like both the WinMobileApps and PhoneWeaver both do all of the above. I ended up going with phoneweaver though because of other options. Thanks to those who were able to enlighten me on the newer versions

I'm glad I could help!
PhoneAlarm is a good choice too. It does tons of things besides profile switching (repeated alarms of missed calls, sms, mms, email, traffic cost/counter, etc). There is a free version too.
It's really nice but tends to slow the Today screen only when you change/move plugins or softreset. Other than that it's really nice.
You should give it a try.

Hey guys, I'm looking for a profile switcher that has the following:
(a) a today component (preferably just one line)
(b) allows for the selecting of a profile temporarily (meaning after xx minutes it would revert back to normal like MeetingMute did for WM2003)

Profiles Manager for Diamond

Hi all,
Just bought a Diamond in replacement of my Cruise.
This Diamond is beautiful and easy to use but I have not fount a profile application to use with.
I need a profile application that can control Bluetooth, rings and notification volume in profiles like cars, home, work .....
I usually used PhoneAlarm but with the Diamond and the touchflo screen, it is not possible to add the today plugin ...
So I have tried an application called PZP and the PZP Menu software that I launch using a long press on button. this application is great but eavy and slow to load...
So I am now searching an application to manage my profiles through the TF3D (why not ..) or with a button on the task bar for example.
someone has an idea ?
regards
i have this same question and couldnt find the answer. has anyone solved this yet?

...sure: Disable the manila plugin ;-)
You could always remap a TF3D soft key to whichever profile switcher application you decide on?
I've tried PhoneAlarm in the past (http://www.pocketmax.net/phoneAlarm.html) but now use Wireless Time (http://freewareppc.com/communication/wirelesstime.shtml) which alters my profiles based on the time of day.
Don't think there is anything integrating tightly within TF3D just yet
I'm the developer of PhoneWeaver (I'll don't put the link to avoid it to be considered SPAM, but it is public that beemer=miguel). I think it is the best profiler program in the market and I can tell you as a secret that as long as I have a Diamond as my personal phone, current version works well on it and next version will be fully optimized

I haven't yet managed to find working documentation for WirelessTime. Presumably you need to keep it running and there's no minimise option. I can't work out the configurable time option under the settings that seem to defaulted to 00:10, but it looks like hourly configurable slots on the main screen. I have searched, but can't find a manual, either on PDAInfo, Google, or here. Any pointers in the right direction?
If you are still looking for a tool to manage profiles, here you have
- Profiles for Windows Mobile
I bought it a year before, and they told me I could get 2 more licenses. I have been trying to contact with them this month (in order to get my second license for the diamond), and no way.
So, in the trial version you would be able to configure and programme 2 profiles. Anyway, if you look around the web...

I have created a link to it that I put in the startup folder so it runs on every soft reset. I never have to open the program and it doesn't appear as a running program.
I've not found any docs either, but I've left the time option set at 00:10 because I wasn't sure what it did! On the main screen I've just highlighted what I want to be 'on' each hour, and repeated that for all the days in the week. Been working fine for me on this basis

Hi
At the Diamond, how you change profiles? where you connect it to?
I am using Phoneweaver I have added a button to the Phoneweaver Menu on my Programs tab and when i press that i get my profile list ... works a treat
SPB Phone Suite is nice - and if you couple it with Second Today then you can access all of the home screen plugin options for switching profiles.

Custom Phone Profiles on Fuze??

Hello. Here is what I am looking for and maybe my Fuze can already do this, but I can not figure it out.
I would like to have more control of the phone profile options like I used to have on my Blackberry phones. Basically I want to be able to make custom profiles.
For example. With my old phones I was able to use an "advanced" feature in the phone profile section to create what I called a "night" setting. When this setting was activated the entire phone was on silent (texts, emails, etc, everything was silent) EXCEPT the phone, which would ring if I received a call. So it was basically a "phone only" setting. This was perfect at night because I would only receive a call if it was a real emergency.
Or let's say I want EVERYTHING to vibrate EXCEPT the phone that I want to ring. On my Fuze I see how to put the entire phone on "vibrate" or "silent", or "normal", but how do I adjust those profile settings if I want to or create new profiles
Is there a program/script/plugin that will accomplish this? Or can I already do it on the phone?
Thanks for any help with this.
i am looking for something like this too so if anyone knows of a program that does this or can make one that would be really awesome.
phoneAlarm from pocketmax.net is the program you want.
You can create several different profiles controlling everything from ring and alarm tones to backlight level to WiFi status and automate switching between each of them based on time, appointment, location...
Though written as a Today screen plug-in, there is a TouchFlo support mode that lets you run TF as well.

dgduris, thank you for the info. I am going to go check it out now to learn more. I am currently using spb Mobile shell. Does it work with this program?
thanks again for the info. I will report back what I find and how it works!
How does phonealarm support TouchFlo? I used to use phonealarm with my 8525. But with my new Fuze, I've been trying out SBSH Phoneweaver. Which seems to be working well enough. It has a pop-up profile screen menu overlay that I set to one of my buttons.
spb phone suite was the answer for me. really a nice program.
does spb phone suite mess with the Touch Flo? and my manila? i dont want to have the entire SPB thing show up in my home screen. I want to it to be like an app where i can just open it and chang I just want to be able to change profie profiles and then close it again.
I believe it will be in your profiles or setting list and it does not mess with TF3D. It works great with my Mobile Shell touch screen settings also.
