sending tones during an active call - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

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.

DTMF

On the nokia's when in a call u can use dtmf which will dial a number in ur phonebook whilst on the phone... i've tried this on the xda but dont know where or how to do it.... can any1 tell me how i go about getting this done?
Thx in adv.

I've always found that you can just dial numbers while you're in a call, you just use the... dialpad. :/
I had one contact which dials one of those 0870 numbers for cheaper international calls, someone pointed out to me that to get the phone to pause inbetween dialing a number, you could setup a Contact with commas to achieve a pause (I think each comma pauses the dialing for about a second)... So I have 0870234821,,001598238 (for example, the numbers aren't real numbers, but you get the idea).
I've always found that I can just dial on the keypad if I'm in a call though, you just dial and it dials the DTMF. Am I missing a trick here? I've not installed any other dialing software, I'm just using the supplied software, just with the default skin.
i know wot u mean.... but i'm contstantly having to dial numbers whilst in call, so it would be useful to have a tool that will allow you to do this rather than dummying number and having a pause for different dtmf's

i've tried this software but whilst incall, it doesnt trigger off... am i doing something wrong.
I see what you mean...
... Here's a thought; how about recording some combos of DTMF tones to predefined wave files, and triggering them on the phone whilst you're in a call? There's a chance the phone might pick them up as they're being played, and relay them down the line... Just a thought for this morning, one I've not tried in practice yet, but it might work.
it is good to use.
i use short tone and delay time change to 50ms.
nice !
thanks a lot
Can't get dialDTMF to work. The tones are played when I go to contacts -> dialDTMF, but only when NOT in a call. If I'm in a call and try to use dialDTMF nothing happens after I pick either work/home/mobile number.
Or am I using this tool the wrong way?

DTMF Help

I use a lot of prepay phone cards to call home and they all uses access numbers and pin codes. I always have to write down phone numbers or try to remember them because i can't send or dial contacts directly as DTMF. Can anybody help please.

DTMF help
Thanks but the software doesn't have the feature which I am interested in. I want to be able to send phone numbers directly fron contacts as a DTMF string while already on a call rather than typing it on the pad.
I could have sworn that Pocket Informant 2007 allowed you to do this... (under 2003SE at least) but I can't find it on my Kaiser at all

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:

Call+SMS blocker with Reply

First of all, I am using an AT&T Tilt with stock ROM and WM6 pro.
I have been searching forever for a program that can Block both CALLS and SMS and then be able to automatically respond to each with a predefined sms.
The only one that I have come across is CALL SMS blocker which can be seen here. This program would be AMAZING if only the sms auto response worked. It has the ability to block both calls + sms, and then even send an automated sms response for both. Its just that after it has blocked the call and/or sms it will not send the automated sms response. I dont know if I am doing something wrong. So if anyone has this program working on their Kaiser then could you help me out.
Another idea I had was to use 2 separate programs to achieve my goal. I was going to use Auto SMS reply (found here) to take care of automatically responding with an sms to my missed calls and then I was going to use another program to automatically respond to text messages. Only problem now is that I cant find a program that automatically replies to text messages. So if anyone knows of such a program could you please let me know, I would be very appreciative. Thank you in advance for any help anyone can give me.
I don't know if you searched the whole forum, but doing it right gave me for example this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2335726
They talk about Magicall. Can have a look
How would one send an SMS to a landline? If nothing but cell phones called me I could see a great use for something like this but I get a lot of calls from regular phones.

Dial / DTMF tones during a call not being played - Samsung say it's not a feature!

Use Case:
1. Call a conference call number eg: WebEx
2. You are asked to enter the meeting number
3. You press the numbers but no tones are played
Had a tech support call with Samsung just now.
Firstly they say this isn't a feature on EU Note 8s (WTF!)
Then say it should work out of the box and my phone is faulty so take it to a Samsung centre for evaluation / exchange
I reckon this is a software bug. Can someone else in the EU dial any number and when you're connected to the call, press a number on the dial pad and tell me if you hear the tone played?
Im not in EU, but in the states it works fine, i have many conference calls daily and it always works for me entering my codes to get into the call. It should be working fine on your model as well, possible a issue with the carrier side of things or its turned off in the hidden settings.
Edit:
Try ##DATA#, if it brings up a menu, put in 000000 as your msl, then go to More, then go to DTMF SET. See if its off or not set at all? US model has a option here for this at least.
Hi
The ##2832# doesn't work on my phone. It's a real pig seeing as I work remotely!
Don't even seem to be able to use a 3rd party DTMF tone generator either (well I can but the system at the other end isn't hearing the tones).

I have a Galaxy N950N and I have this same issue. Did you ever get this working? I can't seem to find a secret service menu to enable it, and I know I'm doing something wrong here.
Hi
Not specifically a fix but the only place I'm having issues with is WebEx. If you try your voicemail, does that work ok? Mine is fine but for some reason WebEx isn't

Mine doesn't work across the board, irrespective of voicemail or other conference call. No dial tone is played in-call when you press the dial pad.

Figured it out. It's the CSC. Apparently, it doesn't work properly with the N950N (at the least the one I had installed, which was default with the Renovate ROM). I had to use the Flashable CSC Selection V1.2.5 from Tkkg1994, manually add the greatlte line into it, and once flashed, I got all the options in the dialer for TTY (I think which relates to DTMF), and most importantly, sound feedback when pressing the dialpad while in-call.
Solution
Go to settings -> sound and vibration -> uncheck the the dialling keypad tones(if checked).
Hope this helps!
this works. Go figure... you disable the dialling keypad tones and you can now use the keypad tones. Thanks for the help. This has infuriated me for months
I had not payed any attention to this, as I used some services that require you to input numeric options during call, and all worked fine, but, yes, no tones heard, but the tones are sent anyway
What worked for me was dialing the original number manually - not from the phone memory or contacts!
I use a Gigaset HC450 Doorbell that is able to divert a call.
This is a rare device, check ebay, it is a DECT phone on a Siemens Gigaset IP Base Station with a SIP provider configured)
So if someone presses the doorbell button on the Gigaset HC450 and status is set to AWAY
then the configured SIP provider inside the BASE station does an external call to my mobile because I set up my mobile number inside the HC450 Menu for Diversion
So my mobile is a Samsung Note 8, at the moment i run Stock Hungarian unbranded firmware N950F
When there is a call from the doorbell, there is a sentence said by a female voice: "Doorbell is ringing, to connect press 1, to stop press hash"
I cannot proceed by pressing 1, neither with Dialpad tones activated nor deactivated, and also a 3rd party DTMF tone generator does not work
Someone in this thread said it was fixed by flashing different CSC, which i think is not true because many said that they got webex fixed by simpy DEACTIVATING dialpad tones
I am greatful for all ideas that you have in order to get this working, its a new challange and I found this thread so I posted my topic here, too
Thank you very much for reading
