Dear all,
After installing SipConfigTool.cab and WM6VoIP.cab on my HTC P4550, I finally made it work in front of a SIP server and managed to talk with another phone.
Nevetheless, the audio is rendered by the rear speakerphone (the one normally used for handsfree rendering) and not by the front one (the one used for regular phone usages, on top of the screen). Of course, I checked that I wasn't in handsfree mode, what makes me suspecting a wrong routing of the audio flow in the WM6VoIP client, that's to say the Ms standard one.
Does any of you had the same experience?
Please don't tell me to turn the P4550 to the other side to use VoIP
Thanks and regards
PP

This is a known issue/limitation of WM. No programs can re-route audio to the "usual" earpiece speaker. It can only go out thru:
1. rear speaker (as you found out)
2. a wired headset
3. a bluetooth headset if using A2DP profile (like for music-listeing for sterao BT headphones)
4. a bluetooth headset if using a small program called BTAudio or BTToggle, which reroutes the rear speaker sound of a program to almost any BT headset.
This has been most commonly noticed by Skype users - who have the same problem using Skype for WM.
The "fix", or better yet "workaround" would be the same for you as it would be for Skype users. Search this forum for Skype, and you will find your answer and links to do option #4 above, which is generally regarded as the best workaround, besides #2.
The issue with #1 is it causes a bad echo to the person you called.
Actually, I was able to quickly find the right post for the workaround:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1548652&postcount=26
read that for how to do #4. Read the whole thread for other background info.
The weird thing is: i installed Dutty_s_Tilt_TouchFlo_Rom_beta.zip which i downloaded 28-nov-2007. This ROM worked perfectly with VOIP through the front speaker. Because i did not really like this ROM (no offence) i now reinstalled my old ROM. Which is the default-installed ROM. I installed the "TNT VOIP" and the sound is coming from the rear speaker.
I guess someone has been able to get the WM6-VOIP tool working with the front speaker. Could this person perhaps create a CAB so that we can also use this.
Would be great.
Thanks.
I am using voip on Kaiser with Dutty's Touchflo ROM. Got it set up with voip.com and the call quality is lousy (choppy, jitter, etc.). It's about the same whether I use wifi or 3g. Any recommended solution for this? I know my broadband wifi connection is good since I use the softphone from my laptop over wifi with execellent results. Would trying a different codec help? Also, I can't hear any ringing on my end when I place a call. Anyone else have these issues?

Has anyone else tried this pack without the language pack? and confirm that native VOIP works using the front speaker.
thanks

How was the audio quality while speaking through the front speaker? Have you been able to work it out with the cooked ROM?
I have been away from this forum for a while and recently found out that there's been very little talk going on that Dutty's new WM6.1 ROM supports voip audio coming through front speaker? I have been desperately looking for this option, as I use voip a lot. Can anybody please tell me whether it has been implemented successfully?
anyone please? I'd really appreciate if someone points me to the right direction
As far as I know it in Wm6 it wasn't possible for apps to access the front speaker, I don't know how it is on 6.1 ...
Hello
I just installed Skype for smartphones on my new S730 and the connection works like a charm. However, so far the sound is only played over the phone's loudspeaker. Is there a way to change that, so I can skype using the S730 like a normal phone?
Thanks.
Rob
Currently it's not possible. When calling with Skype, just turn round the phone.
use headphones
I have another question. Is there a way to use Bluetooth handsfree with skype. When i connect my bluetooth handsfree and make call over skype, the sound come from loadspeekers. Works only with wired (headphones) handsfree.
The "issue" is that the API [for sound output] used for VoIP is the same as the Windows Mobile OS (like media player, ringers...) use; not the same the phone uses.
thanks for the answers, guys!
that sucks! any hope this will get resolved sometime soon?
cheers!
rob
Oh, I don't think its solved "soon". Or somewhere in the future. I have had a qtek 2020i and already in those ancient days, I had the problem that it was not possible to use a BT-headset for voip-connections.
For the 730:
Whats about using a stereo-bluetooth headset? Its made only for listening music?!
So, could work for voip/skype too?!?

I suppose that would work, depending on which API VoIP uses to output sound. If it is the same that music uses, then yes, it would work. I'm going to guess it is since wired the stereo headphones work.

Hi there,
I am currently using the Nokia N95 and am considering to switch to Touch Diamond, however I am very fond of the VOIP/SIP functionality on N95, is Does the Touch Diamond also support proper VOIP through SIP?
I don't think there's a built in SIP client, but there are a few third party ones for windows mobile. The main problem usually is that each manufacturer handles the 'ear' speaker differently, and without modifying the source code the sound comes out of the main speaker, unless you use a handsfree.
Haha...Or you could try modifying the wiring.
use SJPhone for Pocket PC
also try the microsoft SIP client: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=VoIP_on_Windows_Mobile_6
Has anyone tried the microsoft VOIP client?? If so any news on which speaker is used?? I have a hermes which works perfectly with the internet calling client but the Kaiser and Polaris uses the external speaker and it´s a bit of a pain.

Ditto. I would also love to know the answer. This is the biggest single drawback of the TyTN II

This is due to the fact that the VoIP can only interact with the system sound platform, not the radio/phone sound platform.
Headsets will work fine, as the ear piece handles both system sound and radio/phone sound.
Are any other SIP clients different?
Usually its platform/vendor specific how they handle the ear speaker. I remember way back CiceroPhone used to be one (comercial) app that was able to use the ear speaker.
Has anyone tried installing the microsoft integrated VOIP yet to see which speaker is used??

Yes, it uses the external.
Is the GPS still working after installing VoIP ?
There is a thread that reports problems and a need for hard reset after VoIP installation.

When I tried using the "destro0_VOIP_WM61" file to enable VOIP, sound was received through the internal speaker (ie...the normal speaker that you use when you talk on the phone). The only problem was that the volume level was low.

Installing the above file disrupted the GPS. It could not be recognized by any software, including the QuickGPS app. I had to hard-reset to get everything back in order.

Are you sure about this? It's just that, from everything I know, this is impossible from a hardware point of view.
On the Diamond, the ext. speaker is VERY close to the internal speaker. Perhaps you were just getting some bleed-through?
Hi,
you could use fring (see fring.com). Works fine for SIP and offers Skype, too (whereas the original skype client did not work on my Diamond).
Cheers,

Try Fring, I use it a lot. It's free and also supports Skype, msn, gmail, ....
Regards.
For the best voip experience I have had so far try Agephone mobile 2.9
I use it a lot and I can confirm that it works well with betamax voip providers.
Fring is good for chating, but the voice quality is not the best.
Good luck.
I use my kaiser in conjunction with a voice activated parrot car kit.
Problem is when i attempt to make a call using it, the S2U software blocks the voice dial activator.
Is there a way around this?
alternatively, im running the manilla 2d software, and just need a keylock option on the main screen, and cant seem to find out how to get one!
any help greatly appreciated,
cheers
joropug,
While I don't have a solution, you may be interested to know that I have been using a Kaiser (XDA Stellar from O2) with a Parrot CK3100 car kit and S2U2-1.62-QVGA without any problems. Up until yesterday I had the stock WM6.1 ROM but just changed to the Hyperdragon IV Rhodium ROM, which it works well.
If you think it might help to compare, settings let me know.
