Real Faxing using the Kaiser?

Hi all
Anyone out there come across any FAXing utility that actually works on the Kaiser? I have tried both Mfax and TrueFax and neither work. Now, I mean true faxing utility using the phones radio not Faxing via internet.
Thanks, Kyri.

I always thought that was carrier dependant. If I remember correctly when I used to in the past long ago with Cingular I was only able to when I had Circuit Switched Data (CSD) enabled on my account that alloed my phone to be used as a dialup modem. But I haven't seen Cingular/ATT offer that service for some time now. Not sure about other carriers.

Please refer to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=380509

Hi guys
Thanks for the feedback, I checked out the threads, but other than confirming that others have had the same problems, not much help.
Even after enabling CSD, there is a need for FAXing software that works on the Kaiser.
I questioned Trufax support and here is their answer…
Unfortunately we cannot support the WM 5.0 / 6.0 Pocket PC Phones at the moment. The problem is that we need technical support from the respective device manufacturers and this support is not given at the moment. We were working together with High Tech Computer for their devices (MDA, XDA, i-mate, etc.) but this was only for WM 2003 OS and they stopped supporting us with WM 5.0 cause faxing was not an issue of importance for HTC and the net providers anymore.
(another round of applause for HTC I guess. Shame on you for laughing at me, again. I will take my money elsewhere next time. I have noticed over the past year that the professional end Nokia phones are looking good and getting better all the time.)
Regarding Mfax, well that software just locks the phone a reset is required, hmmm!
So please the question remains, Does anyone out their know of any FAX software that actually works on the phone (CSD aside that is)?
Thanks, Kyri.

I don't want do be annoying but your question belongs to the software section and should therefore be asked in the thread I mentioned above. Why opening a redundant thread in the wrong section?

Hey (not so) deep thought. Wrong section may be, redundant only with hind site. Rude yes, Annoying certainly! unnecessary definitely.

I just stated my opinion. You are attacking me personally, so everyone can decide for himself who is rude. But continue your redundant thread in the wrong section. I don't have to read it anyway and maybe you can flame with the mods. I'm not available for that ****.

How about eFax?

Hi Cushcalc
Thanks for the efax link. It’s not quite what I had in mind. See I travel lots, go for months without needing a fax and then along comes a need to use fax for a couple of weeks until something else is arranged.
So I don’t want to start an online service and have the overhead/time/think about keeping up the subscriptions for months until I next need it.
Ideally I want to send/receive faxes via radio direct without all this overhead, you know satisfy the need for those couple of weeks and then forget about it till next time.
Mfax and TrueFAX have the right idea. It seems at least for one company however, that the non disclosure policy of HTC has basically prevented them from upgrading their products to run using Windows Mobile version 5 and 6. Sad and petty on HTC’s side I think. From my perspective, well no one likes a bully do they.
Regards

fax
do any of these programs help?

Well, I made an eFax account something like 3 years ago for fun, never used it, and it still exists and I receive a reminder email about it every few months. I wouldn't consider that as having to spend time to keep it up...
I remember sending a fax with an HTC device, but it was indeed still on PPC2003 with my BA a few years ago.
And I'm pretty sure the software vendor you mention is a bit quick at blaming HTC, they could as well get the WM5/6 API info from Microsoft.

Perhaps you should let the mods decide what belongs where.

I too have had problems finding a suitable solution for faxing on my Tilt... AND editing the PDF format I get the faxes in...
You can at least receive faxes on your phone by email with Ringcentral.... I havent found a good email to fax program that might be the best you can do

My sentiments exactly!
Don't really see the point of this thread.

Me too Indian 2G....
But truely an unneccesary thread...

The intention was to know atleast a least no of 2G consumers for my friend who is keen to buy Diamond , in place of other non windows mobile device he owns and is an active member in respective forum. He is keen in getting the device elsewhere ( which may lead to loss of support from HTC ) , while i am convincing him that there lots of indian 2G owners who had brought the same. I thought atleast i can show some statistics that there are atleast lots of diamond owners out here who owns the 2G and are actively members in XDA. But never expected such replys. . .

[Q] Trick AT&T Re-Post

i know i previously opened this thread in the development section, and so many other members where complaining that i posted this in the wrong thread, so yeah maybe i did my bad it was my first opened thread so stop hating. I re-posted this so i can get some insight if this is possible.
"Alright guys so reason why i opened this thread is because do to the fact that AT&T is nothing but a pure monopolistic (wants to control everything) company and as we are all aware there is no unlimited data plans, i have always wanted to know how to "Trick" if i may say, AT&T to thinking were using a so-called "Dumb Phone" thus vise versa a smartphone such as the good old Samsung captivate. I have read other threads about similar issues and achievements on using one dumb phone to activate there data and then switching there SIM to the smartphone but to be fully honest no one has posted steps or a how-to tutorial on how to do this precisely."
If you happen to be one of those that knows how to do this, can you be kind enough to share us your knowledge and post to us some happiness once and for all Thank you!!

What you want to do involves changing your imei which is illegal and XDA does not allow instructions on how to do this. Please search as it would have showed you that all these threads are closed disscusing this.

Homebrew App Store?

Sorry if this question seems dumb. I jumped through all the hoops to get a student dev account set up (running WP8) - but now I'm unsure where to find apps made by other developers. Can anyone help? Thanks.

This is windows 8 not windows phone 8. There is no homebrew wp8 homebrew repository that I know of either. If a dev makes a xap available it will probably be uploaded wherever he sees fit.

Any common example of where that might be?

Upto the developer. There is no big site that they all upload to. Each one tends to be on a little community forum, might stick the XAP as an attachment on one of his forum posts. Or perhaps on his blog or his personal github. There is no giant site listing tonnes of homebrew XAP's. Closest you might find is to get out of the windows 8 section of XDA and go find the windows phone 8 developers section, there are a few apps stuck in there. Otherwise, you have probably wasted time getting your student license if homebrew was what your after.
And yeah. This is the windows 8 section of XDA. Windows 8 as in the PC/Laptop operating system, not windows phone 8, the 2 have little in common.

Okkie dokkie. Thanks. (p.s. my thread was moved here from that section, not sure why)

For what it's worth, I post my apps in Dev&Hacking sub-forum under WP8, with the notable ones in my signature. That's not much yet, but I was late getting a WP8 device. The other devs mostly post in the same place, in the Apps&Games sub-forum (lots there, but it's mostly betas of store apps, not homebrew), in the General sub-forum, or on sites like WPCentral.

I don't appreciate the insulting, in case you haven't noticed moderators can move threads. This was originally posted in windows 8, later moved here.

[Q] Hi, I'm new on XDA Forum

Hi, Myself Amol Baikar.
I'm from India.
Im new on this forum. today i hacked windows phone 8.1
and want to submit post in achievement section.
so plz guide me as soon as possible, i'm waiting. and very excited to post Windows Phone ethical Hacking for Nokia Devices.
i'm first in the wolrd who hacked wp 8.1 lumia device.

Unless you have some reason to avoid sharing it, you should let us know what you did so we can properly appreciate it and ideally give us a tool/app to do it ourselves and start making use of it! Explaining *how* you did it is not required, although I personally nearly always do so; it's a good way to build trust.
Having 10 posts will let you create a thread in the Development & Hacking forums, which is really the proper place for announcing a successful hack, but there's nothing terribly wrong with posting it here instead.
Depending on how good your hack is (interop-unlock? full-unlock? bootloader-unlock? arbitrary code execution with full trust?), whether it's specific to Nokia phones or not, and what it requires (special hardware? a particular regional ROM? hard-resetting your phone?) we may start using the hack immediately; any time you sit on it is time we can't even get started. So, let us know what you've got!
