This tweak doesn't have anything to do with the registry or anything remotely technical so don't worry about applying it it will take less time to do than to read this post!
If you think you Diamond's ringing time before it goes to voicemail is too short then you can do this to lengthen it.
It don't know if this works on all networks at least I know it works on Orange UK.
Go to phone type the following.
**61*07973100123*11*30#
Press call...wait for a confirmation....done!
I'll explain a little more, this should work on all networks and is not a "Diamond" specific tweak, it just tells the network's system to let your phone to ring longer for the person calling you before it goes to voicemail, or the "This person cannot take your call message".
The important thing is the middle part.
After the **61* part is the number for your network provider's voicemail service, in my case on Orange UK it's 07973100123, please check with your network provider what this may be, they may call the number the "access you voicemail from abroad or any other phone" number.
The *11*30# part tells the system how many seconds to ring for, this can be anything between 10 and 30 seconds in 5 second increments. - 10, 15, 20 and so on...
Please let me know if this works on other UK providers, and re-post with your findings, i.e. what the voicemail access number is for each one.
How to check if it worked? Phone yourself and see how long it rings for!
Happy Days!
.G.
Edit 23:51 12/08/2008:- It won't work with the short code for the voicemail.
i.e. the 123, 901, 171 numbers - it had to be the full version. Again from an Orange handset the voicemail number is *Hotkey 1 or 123, To listen to
voice mail from another phone is 07973100123.
Heh, Sweden Tele2/Comviq it's **61*46252(voicemail number (in my case 222))**30#
Just tried it but using 901 (for o2) instead of the Orange voicemail number.
Haven't tested it but it did say 'Succeeded' in a notification bubble so it must've done something right.

Wow thats an old one I remember that from about 10 year ago when some nokias had the menu option to divert for 10,20 or 30 seconds in a menu...
Or you could just change it in the phone
Go Start->Settings->Phone->Services and ( don't know what's it called in english ) menu option ... then press 'get settings'.

Sure my Friend:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER/ControlPanel/PhoneCallFwd/DelaySeconds
It's a Dword Value, so put your value! (20 for 20 seconds,25 for 25...)
Guess by the age of this thread it may have been solved elsewhere, but having recently come across this problem and tried the **61* and settings\phone\service\-no settings- and the reg hack would like to solve this as well.
Not sure why I don't have no 'service, listed under settings\phone\service?
I have an htc diamond with a t-mobile sim if it helps?
Brilliant ! Worked a treat (**61*XXXXX ...) Thanks a mil !
great info

this has now sorted it so i have abit more time to get to the phone 10/10
am I doomed ?
None of the above methods worked.
Tried
- calling **61*+33610061766*11*30# (for french SFR) : msgbox says "Opération réussie" apparently, OK
- Nisse's method (Start->Settings->Phone->Services) keeps displaying 20s after I change it to 30s, close the settings and try again
- ZeuBug's : Registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER/ControlPanel/PhoneCallFwd/DelaySeconds surprisingly displays "30" as value
- have soft reset the phone a couple of times,
but, whatever I do
- the settings always display "20 s"
- the call rings no more than 3 times,which is never enough to pull it out of tight jeans pocket! (no, solution is not to use a handbag, thanx)
Any idea if an other setting somewhere might be blocking or overriding this one?
____________________
16/09/2009 : After controlling with HTC tech support + operator (french SFR) tech support, the problem lies with the operator: SFR does not allow changing this setting!!!!!
Apparently, french Orange users can't either? (to be confirmed by Orange users)
just for those with same problem, initial ring delay can be turned down with :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=894882#post894882
The wm5_ringdelay_patch_normal-v1.2.zip contains a cab which does turn down the inital delay so I now get 4 rings instead of 3 before transfer to voicemail.
Great thanx to Tuatara

hey,
looking for a way to be able to dial a number off my contacts when using a calling card. ie, when i call the calling card, it tells me to enter the number i wish to call, so instead of having to hand dial it in there, is there a way i can just go to contacts and insert that number? seems silly that i have to write that number on a piece of paper and then hand dial it. thanks
omar
Insert a "w" into the number to have the phone stop and wait for you to press send to enter anything that follows. Insert a "p" to have the phone pause for 2 seconds and then chug along. So for your contact:
(Calling Card Co. Phone #)w(CC Access Number/PIN)#p(Contact Phone Number)#
would dial the calling card, wait until you pressed send, enter your access code/pin for the calling card followed by a pound sign, pause two seconds (so the system can do its thing), and then dial the contact number followed by a pound.
You'll obviously need to customize to match the way your particular CC works.
Is it a silly question to ask why you are using a calling card on a cellphone? Are there any plans left that don't include long distance?
I'll make my guess in two words - "International calls."
Either that or he's trying to hide those 1-900/976 calls from his gf/wife.
$2.99/min doesn't last long...
haha na guys, i'm calling international. much cheaper to use calling cards than to dial straight. i'm still at school, and i tried what you said, didnt seem to work, but i'll try it again once i get home. btw, its the type of calling card where my number is saved with them, so i call the card, and it automatically asks me for the number i wish to dial thanks
omar
Well the same dialing suggestions apply. Whatever you dial on your phone manually needs to be inputted using a 'w' for anything entered manually or a 'p' for a pause, which sounds like what you need. You can put multiple 'p''s for longer pauses like: 1234567890ppp12345 which would give you roughly a 6 second pause.
You can also try inserting commas, e.g:
18007777777,,,0119991234567
But I don't think you can tap a contact phone number and have it inserted mid-dialing stream. If the numbers you are calling will always use the calling card I would just save the calling card sequence as part of each of their numbers.
My personal recommendation is to use SunnySoft calling card and, if you are in the US calling internationally, GorillaMobile.
I'm originally from the UK and call the UK a LOT on my cellphone.
This combination makes it totally painless, just have the international contacts in the phone book as a regular contact (preceded by +44 in my case) adn just press dial. All completely seemless and Waaaaayyyy cheapper than AT&T (even reduced rate) International calling.
Just my 2c
This program could help solve the problem for you.
You can store you calling card and pin with this. Then, you can use contacts and select any phone number and you will see a "Call with calling card" on it.
I use this extensively.
Hope this helps

Very cool. Thanks so much for the binaries.
I think the source can be found here:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb158783.aspx if anyone needs to tweak it. I went ahead and installed the signature (pulled a copy off the CAB in PK7 format), but I don't think it's required.
I've wrestled with it for a few days before I found a post claiming contention with the WM version of Google Maps. Sure enough, after uninstalling GMaps and and uninstalling and ReInstalling the callingCard cab, all worked well. I can live without GMaps.
Contrary to the doc, you can place symbols along with letters in your pin. Since I have to enter two pins with my card mine looks something like:
12223334567#pp1234#
That enters the first PIN (Account number) # then two pauses. Then it enters the second PIN (PIN) and #. I think reboots are required between regedits for this to work properly.

Hello,
Thank you autosoori and Dan. I've added a very quick and dirty configuration GUI to it (its been a while since I've done any C++ programming to decided to use C# instead - apologies for the rubbishness on my part, but you will require .NET CF). The GUI is launched from the context menu in the Contacts list. Context sensitive help is provided within the app. Changed DLL so that device reboot is NOT required when registry changes are made.
I've only tested it on my Trinity running AX3L's WM6 ROM. Plan on adding support for multiple CC vendors (wife uses several calling card companies depending on destination). Apologies for the lack of clipboard support on edit controls.
Two files:
CallingCard.dll
CallingCardEdit.exe
I've wrapped them in a cab file. Alternatively, copy the two .exe's from zip to the original CallingCard's install dir; add a regstring in HLCU\Software\Microsoft\CallingCard called "ConfigApp" with the value being the full path to CallingCardEdit.exe; restart device.
Cheers
it works fine at my SX66 WM6, but only works with contact Menu than any other GUI .
hope for more functions

I installed it and it's works fine, but today stopped work... the link appears, but I can't call with it. I tried to install it again... the same...
any idea?!
Here is a big problem I have with this CAB when used with GoogleMaps. If I install CallingCard AFTER GoogleMaps ... no Context menu for CallingCard appears in Contacts.
If I install CallingCard BEFORE GoogleMaps ... both GM and CC context menu appear, but when I select something like "Call work using calling card" it tries to use GoogleMaps instead
GREAT Application / New Features
GREAT JOB!!!
Thanks a lot !
works very well !
is there a way to use it with the call shortcuts for fast dialing ("numérotation rapide" in french) ?
it would be a very very very nice feature !!!
other options (less important, but pretty nice) :
1. ability to dial # after the "dial number"
2. in settings : ability to choose "0 secs" on each menu (pre-pin pause and pre-dial Pause)
Thanks in advance

GREAT Application / New Features
I havent reviewed this app for a long time - apologies. I've moved calling card provider to one that gives me a local number for each of my international contacts - nice!
Anyway, if someone desperately needs some work on it, I will try to fit it in - let me know.
Phil82de: I noticed the problem with Google Maps. I will try to look into it.
samerweb: Again, I'll see what I can fit it. What exactly do you mean by call shortcuts? If you mean phone Quickdials, then you could save the number that is actually dialled directly as a contact. Can you clarify.
Thanks.
hi i have installed this file on my mobile, but can't find the setting. please help
after many cigarettes and plenty of internet trolling i came up with this solution 2nite. i tried many different options and combinations, this is what worked best. the idea spawned from the modaco forum:
http://www.modaco.com/content/Pocke...-to-the-WinMo-missing-call-recording-feature/
sounded like a sweet idea, but i have att and i dont know how to leave myself a voicemail. i also use the callwave voicemail now and i couldnt figure out how to do it there either.
anywayz enough about me....this is what i came up with........
Prerequisites: 3 way calling or conference call, and long distance(u will be calling a new york city area code)
1) go2 http://drop.io/ and create a new drop
here is some info http://drop.io/voice
2)in your new account window http://drop.io/yourname u will see a number
save this number in your contacts in this format 123-123-1234pp12345
where 123-123-1234 is the number, pp pauses the dialing, and 12345 is the extension
3)call the number u just saved. after the beep, put the call on hold. then dial the number of the person u want to record. when u are connected with them, go2 menu and select conference.......engage in interesting conversation......press end.
4)go2 your new drop.io url. u will now see your conversation. click listen and then download. if u want to delete, go2 interactive tab and click delete.
5)have fun
sounds like a pain, but the whole process of calling, hold, calling, conference, takes about 15-30 seconds.
i tried a few other recording options, but this 1 seemed to be the best
1) braincast - disconnects when u put it on hold
2) jott - only record up2 30 seconds
3) google talk - limited to 10 minutes
4) some others can't remember, but drop.io ended up being the best solution. just make sure to password your account and to only allow viewing of files, dont want any1 listening in on ya
5) drop.io allows recording up2 100mb, which is about 100 minutes for their free account.
also i am using an att tilt with duttys 6.1 rom, but i dont see why this wouldnt work on any wm phone

Hey Folks
I upgraded to the official Hong Kong ROM upgrade on my HTC Diamond & whilst impressed by the speed improvements I have a major bug that annoys the hell out of me & thus hope some genius reading this can help fix the problem
On the home tab using the "phone" icon it then shows recent calls. However the left hand button that used to show "contacts" now shows "video call". I never want to make a video call & contacts is far more useful .... but there is no obvious way to change the function
Hoping someone can help
Chill dude.
This ain't a bug, it's a feature.
Personally, I do find video-call usefull, but ill prefer "send SMS"
Do U really need contacts? You can use the keypad T9 to find the person U want to call easily...
Circle your finger around the middle button and it rips thru contacts!

Use your favorite registry editor to navigate to [HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila] and change the following values:
"HomeLSKPath=addrbook.lnk" 'that's the application you want to use
"HomeLSKText=Contacts" 'that's the text that will be displayed on the left soft key on your Home screen
Do a soft reset.
Now your Left Soft Key will display Contacts, so when you press it, you shoul go directly to your contacts. Enjoy!
I've changed mine to Comm Manager.

With CT's rom version 4 if I tap Phone soft key on Today screen then tap the little phone icon between the video call and menu softkeys it removes the keypad and leaves me with last call and contacts list...
No ideas anyone .... it is really bugging me
For me i just disabled the phone skin with the Advanced Config tool. It reverts back to the old WM6 design. I still prefer that. Do note that once u do this, the vibration when a call connects is disabled.
Hey KGB-Agent, I have exactly the same problem...and it is bugging me as well! I upgraded my dutch ROM yesterday :-( Another problem I have is that when I look at my contacts the SIM contacts are not displayed, even when I configure this in Advanced Config Tool...HELP! Anyone else an idea how to fix???
Your contacts are opened when your in the phone app, just scroll! why do you want it to open another contacts process when its already there?!? up and down or as i already said circle the middle button with your finger
Hi Blaze,
Circling with my finger in the middle button doesn't work for me. Furthermore, with "Contacts" I could quickly scroll down with the Alphabet on the right to f.e. the letter Z. The way you recommand it takes me ages to get to the "Z"!
I called the HTC helpdesk, they advised me to do a Hard Reset. Of course...that didn't work...:-(
Go to start and choose contacts its the same screen.
I agree the videocall is a bad choice from the makers of this rom.
Most people do not use this kind of calls.
Grtzzz
I have the same issues with the loss of functionality Ries
I cant believe there are not more complaints
I emailed HTC 4 days ago with no answer :<
@kgb-agent: I phoned the helpdesk. They said I had to do a hard-reset!?! I couldn't believe it, but okay, I tried it...and what do you think: I still have the problem! :-( I guess we have to live with it...bad choice from the developers...
same problem
up
Two things:
1) why don't people use the smart dialling feature? this is where when in the phone keypad, you just spell out your contact using the alphanumeric keypad (it uses T9 to search) and it displays your search results in real time at the top of the dial pad... MUCH easier than the contacts screen - try it.
2) circling the middle button with your finger does NOT work for me, i have no idea how that is working for you since the diamond is not meant to be able to scroll using that 'wheel' unless you have installed some 3rd party software for it, or its unique to your ROM/region.
Hi, not sure if anyone having similar problems or not.
Problem 1: I live in Sydney, I've set the time to GMT+10 Sydney, after a while, the phone automatically change the time setting to GMT+10 Vladivostok. Any idea how to fix this minor problem?
Problem 2: When I put my phone to stand-by mode (eg. after a while the phone's screen is off or phone automatically lock up), when some one send the sms to my phone, the phone does not play the warning sound for incoming message, until I turn on screen than the phone play the incoming sms sound.
Problem 3: Weather--- I've download the update for weather for the whole week. For example, on Monday night I've downloaded the weather, the screen showing the weather at night (for Monday), than On tuesday morning, the weather screen does not update to Tuesday's weather, it just stay for monday night's weather screen. Does Dimond automatic update the weather for each day base from the data which already downlaoded?
Thanks for you help!
ohh guys... how come no one can answer my problems??
1. happened to me also. i don't care if it is jerusalem+ or beirut+2. do you really care? for a possible solution see also post # 11.
2. somewhere in the forum there is a tweak (or a registry edit?) for this. i think there are ROMs with this bug solved.
3. you can choose to have the weather update manually or automatically.
weather/menu/settings/download weather automatically (thick for auto).
there not such thing like downloading the weather Monday for the whole week...the weather is changing (like when they said tomorrow-rain and you walk all next day feeling ridiculous with yr umbrella and the sun is shining ).
if it is important for you live it on manual and each time you sync with yr pc download the weather. is cheap and fast and daily.

If you ask me, it's a bit stupid that it changes the time zone constantly when you select to sync the time. By the looks of it, it always changes the time zone to the last item in that zone (Ulaanbaatar is the last item in +8).

Only way I have found to fix this is to go the Phone Settings area, Then Time Zones and turn off "Automatic change time zone and clock" . I had this same issue with my TyTnII and now my Diamond. My guess is the Telco Networks transmit the time as raw UTC along with an offset, but without a location stamp. Something like "it is currently 0230UTC and this location is GMT+10". It is then up to the WM6.x to go into its list of timezomes and I bet it just grabs the first in its list that is +10, so Vladivostok. Buggers up summertime offsets too.
Good news is if you leave this turned off the time will still get updated when you activsync by way of HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Clock\NetworkTimeSync.
Just that it wont automtically change when you move time zones for example.
I've set mine to off, I'll report back in a few days, sounds like it will be fine looking at previous post by Logger.

what I mean was you know when you hook up to the net and downloaded the update for the weather, the phone will update for the whole week's data. As soon as the update is done, the phone will show you the weather of the same day (the date you updated e.g. Monday), but the following day (Tuesday), the weather still showing Monday's weather and doesn't change the date Tuesday, but I know the weather for tueday was also downloaded (yeah I know the weather maybe is not up-to-date since was downloaded on Monday).

yes, so what ..?
What's it not doing? Not announcing?
I played around with mine and eventually got it to work. For example I unchecked the "high priority only" on the message alert and got that to finally work. Not sure what constitutes a "high priority" other than any message from my wife, lol!
@RatRedux, thanks for your response! I just can't assign it to a button, also, I've the American version, and it can't really understand my British accent in most commands...how did you assign a button?
managed to remap the registry key as follows:
# Goto HKLM\Software\ Microsoft\Shell\Keys
* - Click Open Key named "40C6"
* - Change the 'Default' string name to "\Windows\Voice Command.lnk"
* - Now change the 'ResetCmd' string name to "\Windows\Voice Command.lnk"
Now close Registry, and go back to device and click the button on the top left side which is indicated by the 'Speak' Icon, and it should now work for you!

I only ever used voice commands with my bluetooth headset so I never bothered to set a button on the phone. It works most of the time but it doesn't help that my wife and neice and daughter and sister in law have similar sounding names so it occasionally wants to dial the wrong relative lol! I turned off the announce incoming calls since my Blueant T1 has it's own built in voice caller ID. Though I must admit the lady who lives inside my phone sounds a bit nicer than the lady inside the bluetooth!
We haven't figured out how to set up Google voice in my wife's Android phone so I must give my old "brick" (as my wife calls it) a nod since it worked right away even on my old junk headset.
