Have you had VoIP working before? Do you know if your SIP settings are correct and you have connectivity to your VoIP provider? I have cooked the VoIP components into my custom ROM and mine works fine. I did have issues setting up my ADSL Router/Firewall originally though as it didn't 'understand' SIP and some additional configuration was required.

yes everything correct, it says available. but if i want to use it an tap on the today screen i just get into the options menu.
the funny thing is, if i use wrong account details, it says: "searching" and i can tap on the today plugin and it changes to voip without saying selected.
can you give me the link to your voip.cab please? do i need the voip drivers thing?
edit: just used fring to test it, and there it works. didnt use voip built in before

I have the exact same problem when tapping on the today screen I go to options. Anybody solved this particular problem?

SIP Changing problems

I'm having troubles changing between SIP's I've installed. I've installed 2 additional SIPS than what the HTC ships with. But, when I try to switch to another SIP, I get the default white keyboard. Anyone know of a way to guarantee the use of a s specific SIP?
Thanks
I could think of a few things:
/ did you reset after installation ?? ( some program required a soft-reset afterward )
/ did you get a message that the installation was successful ??
/ if you're referring to the startup default being switched back to the default SIP ... then there is a program called "SIPchange" on the forum ( do a search )
that's all from me ... maybe if you could be more details about the name of the program(s) then maybe others who has been there can be of assistance ..etc
P.S ... how do you go about switching ???? I had to ask ... I've seen somebody swear that they'd switched and I'd tried to help at one time... meanwhile, they never actually clicked the triangle besides the pic to actually switch and/or go into the options menu to config anything ...etc
~~~
Known issue. Search for SIP Change in the forum and you'll be able to get one of them working.
Ok, SipChange fixed the problem. Wonderful!
I was clicking the triangle because I could switch to some of the "built in" Sips.
Thanks for your help.

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...

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.

It is shown as "Reply" when your message fits the dialog box notification neatly. If it doesn't "View" is shown for you to read the full message. Hope this helps.
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:

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.

vibrate on connect -- vibrate when call connects

Hello again,
My phone vibrates when a call is connected. I know there is a program called pocketAlarm that enables this feature but I never installed it!
What is causing this?
(I like this feature but Im just curious as to how and where this feature was enabled)
Thanks in advance.
Do you have any other contact managers installed? I know inesoft Address Book can be configure to vibrate on connection. I didn't think it was an option in a default build of WM 6.
I do have Inesoft installed but I don't see an option anywhere in the program to enable or disable this feature. Am I missing something?
check this: Settings, Personal tab, sounds & notifications, notifications tab, connection disconnected.
Make sure vibrate at the bottom is not checked. If it is, whenever you dial a phone number the internet disconnect will cause the unit to vibrate. Same thing with connection established.
I checked there and the vibrate mode is not selected, yet it still vibrates when it connects to a call. I am just wondering what software or option is causing it to do this.
The feature is hidden and can only be accessed if you enable Options "Show Tray Icon". Then go to the WM's default Today screen, tap the tray icon and the setting is there under options. I think it is silly to hide it there as people who disable the tray icon will not find this feature.

Try Start>Settings>Personal Tab>Phone>Scroll all the way to the right until you see the Advanced tab>Remove the tick from "Vibrate device when connection is established">Click OK until you see your home screen.
Your connected call shouldn't vibrate anymore - well it worked for me anyway!

This is not available on my stock AT&T (bloatware removed) 6.1 ROM. There is no "Advanced" tab. I would like to enable this feature. I've tried installing a CAB to do this, but no luck.

"Beam" in Comm Manager in Kaiser?

Guys....
I am not aware there is infra-red hardware on the Kaiser/HTC8925! I do not see there is a need to have "Beam" in the Comm Manager window. If I am missing something please let me know, or better yet substitute it with EdgeData on/off.
Thanks and gratitude to all the cooks that are sharing their work with us all.

NO.. Beam is a feature of Infra-Red hardware as in the HTC8525 / TyTn. It is used to transport files between two devices that have such hardware when placed close together. I can not say it is a faster method than BlueTooth, but it is more secure, as blue tooth integrity can be compromised. The Kaiser/HTC8925 does NOT have it.
Yep agree with above post, However, oddly in the case of the Kaiser the Beam icon will actualy start a send file or recieve file by means of BlueTooth.
To copy files (ringtones) to cell phone (Nokia 6280) I connected via Bluetooth and used the "Beam" to transfer it...
There's no IR, like others mentioned, it's related to BT in this case although it's a a bad choice of words.
Am I talking Urdu.... ?? or Swaheely..??
Are you all guys missing the point or it is just me????
I am not talking about the function of the "Beam". I am talking about the existence of the button "Beam" in Comm Manager, next to BlueTooth. So quit telling me your use of the "beam" while we all know clicking it on or off has no function, since transferring files via BlueTooth can be done with BlueTooth on alone.
i dont have it so....yeah

You CANNOT recieve bluetooth "beamed" contacts from standard (i.e. non-smart) mobiles while BEAM is off in the Comm Manager, it basically enables the bluetooth spec that allows it, sort of like a security option. This lets you have BT on for your headset ect. but "protects" you from recieving items like contacts sent from nearby bt devices.
Also no need to get angry at people replying, you asked for info and people were just letting you know what it sounded like you were asking originally.

Thank you... However the above mentioned "Security" can be easily achieved by changing the BT settings, so again there is no need to have the "Beam" in some comm manager plug-ins.

It really depends on the ROM you are using or CAB file since they put it in. The stock HTC ROM didn't have that as an option. You can change it if you like via registry to another function.
Actually, here's the low-down. From WM5 onwards, even in the old TyTN, bluetooth couldn't receive files(not sure of sending) without the beam option on. Try turning BT on, Beam off, and receiving a file. Personally, I just keep it at on, and then I changed the option.

Hi dude
It's right, there isn't IR (and "Beam" refer to it) on the Kaiser, but as some other one already said, there isn't the Beam button in the original HTC Comm Manager, so, maybe you are using an other Comm Manager with this option enabled (useful for other devices)!
Personally, i also got the Beam Button when install the Schap's CommManager and i removed it using Advanced configuration tools app (remove/customise all the buttons in th "Comm Manager" tab) and with this one you can add the 3G/GPRS button (turn it on/off), but no others like EDGE or HSDPA untill now (if you check any Comm Manager with these new one let me know too, )!
Hope to help you!

Dutty has it removed in his V4 DTouch ROM. He substituted it with Data on/off.
To add or remove the beam in Comm Manager, you could access the registry or install Schaps Advanced Config. tool. After installation, click Menu, Comm Manager Settings, Check or un-check the icons of your choice.
Thanks to @[email protected] for pointing that out. I just loaded Schaps Adv. Configurator and got it handled.

I already had the Data Button in the Default and Schaps Comm Managers, but not the 3G (...and Voip Button too) in the Default, anyway, can you explain me something?
Turning off the Data button i close all the data connections (GPRS, EDGE, HSDPA, and maybe UMTS too), right? and turing off the 3G, are the EDGE, HSDPA and UMTS connections still opened or not (as result)? ...for this i was talking about different Buttons for EDGE or HSDPA in the Comm Manager!!

I want to take a shot at answering your question, although I do not fully understand the question. When you shut down Data Exchange through Edge, that's all you shut down. 3G and HSDPA through GPRS still function. Edge is a stand alone secure data transfer protocol. If you shut down 3G, then only Edge is up. If your service provider offers full edge service, you can surf the internet with Edge alone as in the case of AT&T MediaNet package.
I hope I answered your question correctly.
"Beam" is a must for accepting files via Bluetooth!!!
As to the original question, of wheteher or not "beam" is needed in the kaiser com manager, I personally like the the idea. Reason is (as stated previously in this post), if the "recieve all incoming beams" box is unticked in start-settings-connections-beam , then you CAN NOT accept any incoming data (ie- vcard/contact/ringtone/files/etc...) via bluetooth. As also stated before, you can have your bluetooth on and operational with a headset or what have you, but then any time you need to accept a file/etc from your pc or a friend's phone, you MUST turn on "beam": and that covers bluetooth "beams" or ir "beams" alike. It is a bit mis-leading in a way I guess to some, but it is nice to be able to just press your comm mgr button and click beam/bluetooth to accept a file on the go, as opposed to going into connections and enabling it all. Well, I hope this was useful info to the original question.
In addition, all previous devices with beam AND bluetooth also worked this way. The tytn, apache, and all the other variants running wm5/wm6 have all needed the "receive all incoming beams" checked when receiving data over bt or ir. As I said before, it only seems misleading to folks who are used to having a beam option with an ir equipped device, but the kaiser/tilt still needs the beam option for bluetooth beams.

And no one seems to know the answer.
I have Schaps VoIP files installed in the ROM and it DOES work but the service wavers from SELECTED to NO SERVICE at will and the dialer both dials, doesnt connect as soon as it has finished dialing AND gives wrong "there is no network" error messages as soon as you finish dialing.
I have on ONE or TWO occasions managed to get the phone to connect and found the volume to be impossibly low while the person I was calling said my voice was (if anything) too loud!
You apparently need to install Omapclock to overclock to use VoIP at all but this is supposed to cure the low volume problem (it doesn't for me and I have overclocked to 286). But from a position of no knowledge, I am pretty sure you dont have to change any xml settings!
Meanwhile no one knows if the cooks are checking that VoIP should work in their ROMs. aSerg is keeping shtum on this for his new ROM. it is so flaky and the cooks respond to VoIP questions so rarely that I am wondering whether the ROM one uses has some input into whether VoIP works PROPERLY or not.
It seems that the best soft dialer out there is SJPhone which I have installed relatively successfully on a Wizard, though it is a bit of a pig to configure. What with creating a profile, marking it active, selecting it and using it etc etc etc.
