Advice On FAX SOFTWARE

I own a XDA II (O2 UK) I would like to be able to send or receive faxes, can someone please advise me what I need to do ? Do I need to ring O2 and ask them for a second number or can I use my existing number as fax line and voice.
Second question, which is the best and reliable fax software for XDA II
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

any advice pls

the latest version of Truefax sort of works, I have managed to send a few fax's but its not something to rely on..

truefax doesn't work with the 1.66 rom i think....

Hi Guys,
mY ROM version is
ROM Version 1.60.00WWE
ROM Date: 12/03/03
Radio Version 1.10.00
Protocol Version: 1337.18
ExtROM Version 1.60.50
Which software will work .... i not sure which one to purchase. I would appreciate any advice... once again thanks in advance.

Dear nya2003uk, I got KSE TrueFax 2.06 working perfectly in my imate. I searched for months until I got this version working ok. Others are not!!
You also got to call O2 to activate the fax feature for your account, they might provide you with another mobile number. In our country, we get another mobile/fax number for the fax service.
I advice you not to buy TrueFax 2.06 and make sure it works in your mobile first (as a trial). Note that the new version (Version 3) did not work in my imate. However, it supports Pocket Excel, Pocket Word and RTF files and top of that printing of faxes via infrared or Bluetooth. Currently; I can not print faxes through TrueFax 2.06 from my imate.

Think you can recieve fax's via e mail with e-fax. Not sure if this is any help to you. :?

This is a smart idea, but you still might want to send faxes while you are travelling, or just add your notes with your handwritting to a received fax and re-send it again, I currently do that, it is perfect.
However, do you know any web site, or any software that converts faxes to email?

Hi
Where can I get a version of KSE Truefax compatible with the XDA 2 with windows mobile 1st edition rom?
On the KSE Website I have the following choices:
KSE Truefax v2.02 ( H/PC 2000 )
KSE Truefax v2.05 ( Pocket PC 2002)
KSE Truefax v2.03 ( Pocket PC 2002 Phone Edition ) e.g. MDA I and XDA I
KSE Truefax v2.08 ( Windows Mobile 2003 Phone Edition II ) e.g. T-Mobile MDA II and XDA II
KSE Truefax 2004 v3.01 ( New Windows Mobile 2003 )
NOTE: Please notice that KSE Truefax is NOT running on Pocket PC Phone Edition devices with integrated modem, like XDA I + II, MDA I + II, Qtek, i-mate, etc.

None of the above cater for Windows Mobile 2003 1st edition. I can confirm that v2.08 for 2nd edition doesnt work as it comes up with "no carrier" before it starts to dial out and send a fax. The website warns that the 2002 edition will corrupt a WM2003 phone so I havent tried it. Someone here reports that v2.06 would work but it doesnt seem to be available to download from the website.
Can anyone help?

Yep, I had Version 2.06 working 100% OK with me, and with other 2 friends as well. I did not find it on any web site!! I got it from a friend.
I do not mind to share it as it is the only version works with imate (xda2) with no problems at all. It is registered as well.
I am welling to post the FTP link to download it, let me know.

Yes please, that would be very useful!!! 8) I have tried hard to find a suitable version on the website and many places elsewhere and have not come across that version.
Ash

Sure... TrueFax 2.06 is attached. Good luck.

Hi
Cheers for the software. However I seem to get the same problem as before...
Querying modem...
Initializing modem with "AT E0 V1 Q0 M0 S7=60 S10=10 +CLIP=0; +CRC=0; +CMEE=0; +COLP=0; +CBST=7,0,0"...
Dialing "+44 {number} "...
No carrier detected.

^ here is the problem
Upgrade your radio to 1.17

Hmm I upgraded my rom recently to the one on http://www.my-xda.com and it does indeed have all the features listed as part of the upgrade. How do I go about getting a newer version without losing all the O2 UK customisation and settings?

You should upgrade only the radio stack. This will keep your old ROM/Extended ROM. Use search.

More ppl who cant get Trufax to work
Well I just got my XDA2 (after I broke my XDA1!!) I would guess it should have all the latest software. (and there are faries at the bottom of the garden as well!)
You mention a radio stack upgrade to version 1.17. I dont see that on O2's website only 1.10- or did I miss something. I get the same 'no carrier'. I also read something about TomTom Nav having a port conflict, but scant info on how to resolve this.
any more ideas?

Re Fax software

KSE TrueFax 2.08 problem
I have KSE_2.08WWE.CAB installed (FAX service enabled by operator). When I try to send a fax the first page goes OK, but when it comes to send the second one it stops with error message (Read timeout on serial port/Line droped).
Is anybody facing this kind of problem?

Downgraded to WM 5 from WM 6 but Treo 750 showing wrong ROM version

Hi everyone - I had upgraded my Treo 750 to WM 6 RWE (ROM version 2.25 RWE) a few weeks back, but got frustrated at the lack of availability of Blackberry Connect for the device
It appears pretty darn stupid to me that Palm/ HTC/ Win Mo would put together a supposed "business/ Blackberry killer device" and not work with RIM on putting together a BBC package for WM 6 on it....
Anyways, to get to the point - I downgraded to the WM 5 Vodafone UK (1.16 VFE ROM I think) and as I used the SD card update method to load WM 5, my 750 still thinks its at 2.25.
Unfortunately, owing to this 2.25 ROM version, BBC 2.1 and/ or BBC 4.0 (both of which supposedly work with ROM version 1.16) do not work
Would appreciate it if anyone could please guide me towards changing the ROM version from 2.25 to the 1.16 it actually is
Alternately, if anyone has a desktop updater for WM5 I'd love to have it (but pls also provide instructions on how to update as "updater" wont update when my ROM version says 2.25 anyways - and I am trying to "update" to 1.16)
Thanks very much in advance folks - much much appreciated

WM 6.1 will be available for Treo 750.

cuboosh,
You have to read between the lines.
The article though old says the Treo 750 will be made compatible with Windows Mobile Device Manager by the 2nd half of 2008. A quick search on that product indicates that it's features are enabled by WM 6.1 and not the current WM 6.0.
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobi...r/default.mspx
"Mobile Device Manager 2008, enabled by Windows Mobile 6.1, is a solution that gives organizations enhanced on-device security and over-the-air policy enforcement. It allows IT Professionals to more easily manage phones within the organization, and gives mobile employees access to confidential information on corporate networks with firewalls."
"Availability
The Palm Treo 750 smartphone will support Mobile Device Manager through an update starting in the second half of calendar 2008."
I think this is good news.

lets hope. cuz i love my treo

Yeah right, they never gave us our promised PTT. Like i'm going to believe anything Palm say anymore, i'm done with Palm, htc actually stood behind what they said and delivered first.

Palm Treo 750 Upgrading/Downgrading
Hi,
I have been looking for a good version of windows Mobile 6.0 or 6.1 and all links point to the palm website, well that download was for a limited time only and I'm unable to located a version that I can install on my phone.
I'm not that firmilar with doing this and have only tried the sd card method with no success- yes the card is fat32 and it goes into a loading screen and just sits there so i figure the version of WM6 that I got was no good or it wouldnt work when trying to downgrade.
Can anyone either point me to a good download link to downgrade to WM6.0 or 6.1 as i installed 6.5 which is works but I need to unlock the phone using the code I have and 6.5 doesn't prompt so I can type in the unlock code. Can someone please help me downgrade to 5.0 or 6.0 with links to download the right version?
Thanks for all ya help and taking the time to read this.

Is this correct???

Kaiser (Voda V1615) - Need to downgrade to v6.0

Hello all
We have been forced into upgrading our hardware from the Qtek 2020i/HTC P6500 to the Vodafone V1615 (HTC Kaiser) for our nursing staff, the PDAs are used to run a specific application which runs fine on the old models, strangely enough it also works on the Kaisers that have WM6.0 OS.
I do however have 20 PDAs that are running WM6.1, the application will not run on these, I am looking to downgrade a test model back to WM6.0 and was wondering if someone has a WM6.0 ROM I could get hold of.
I hope someone can help with this "little" problem
TIA
Damian Byrne

Update
It appears the application is working now until it attempts to load visit details when it falls over, I am assuming this may be due to the .net version on the PDA. I am going to try and get older .net (cf) versions installed onto the PDA

WM6.5 Voice Dialing TellMe

I'm currently using the MSD series 6.5.1.7 ROM with SPB Mobile Shell v3 and it's a really nice combination. However recently, New Zealand has past a new law that does not allow you drive and hold a mobile phone at the same time. This means I need to use my blue tooth headset again and do voice dialing. I have looked on the net for a voice dialing app that will work on WM6.5 and it seems that there is only "TellMe" from Microsoft and it is not for our iMate K-JAM/Wizard phones.
Does anyone have a solution for this?

I have been using Microsoft Voice Command V. 1.6 for a number of years on my Wizard with all recent versions of Windows Mobile. I have a recent version of 6.5 and it works just fine. once you install VC map it to button 4 and the bluetooth device will activate it when you push the button on your BT device. You can download VC 1.6 from various sources, but know that it is not a freeware program
AJ

Thanks for the heads up - I tried it on the MSD series 6.5.1.7 but was not able to get it to work for me. I'll give it another go.
