I knw this maybe a VERY stupid question but can the PTT application and button be reenabled under any of the cooked rom's. I have done much Googling (MUCH) and except for CHANGEING THE PTT Key MAPPING and can't find any info or .cab file for enabling that function. Thanks all. Very long time reader but not poster since I like to figure stuff out on my own IF possible (lol)!
I tried this in general forum with no response. PTT works in 6.0 but it seems like all 6.1 ROM's have it disabled? Am I correct?
Simply, I need to use the PTT functionality but would like to use it combined with using 6.1 ROM's if i can...
I've been looking for the same thing for a while yet. Seems like the only way to get it is to wait for an official ATT 6.1 ROM. I have hope for the new one that came out but haven't flashed yet.
PTT is not in most roms, not just disabled. Kyphur was working on a cab for PTT a while back, but he stopped because of the lack of PTT users that were available to test.

Not a lot of interest in PTT
I would agree that most people do not need or want PTT, but there are a few of us that do, and I can confirm that the new ATT 6.1 test ROM does, in fact, include PTT so there is finally an option for those few of us.

Thanks all for your fast responses. I am also one of the few to utilize PTT for personal and work. I also just in the last 5 min also confirmed that the 6.1 Test AT&T Beta does have PTT and does function good. But to be able to install a cab so we can utilize it in all kaiser rom's would be great. Will keep on reading and checking and posting more!!! Its a good feeling to not feel alone in this kaiser universe lol...

I too would like to utilize PTT feature I am installing the ATT Test Rom now and will see how everything works.
you can only use the ptt function in att based roms. no one has hacked the ppt function to be used in non-att roms.
edit:
@ Laurentius26
PTT=push to talk, basically a walkie talkie like funtionality
Aha... that sounds cool!
I will look into this soon as I finished my ROM.

Try this cab and let me know if it works. It should assing PTT to the PTT button.
why do some post "suggested" that this is free ??? ( just install & use/test ...etc ) ... ???
while this post by "mchapman007" with info from the WIKI suggested that it's a subscription based service ??
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=381104
I tend to believe it's a subscription service ... because if it were free, the phone company could be losing some money ...
and how do you initiate a conversation ??? ( privacy ?? ) ... or does one talk and evryone within range can listen in like walkie talkie ??
here in Canada, we have "TELUS/MIKE's network" ... they have their own phone type and service specifically for that purpose, gears towards business/industrial ...etc
UnicornKaz, PTT is definitely not free. Push to Talk is a service that AT&T provides for around $10 a month. Official Tilt roms have it assigned to 40C6 or the PTT button. I personally don't use it, but I think it's a lot like Nextel/Sprint's walkie talkie service.
I think because it's an AT&T only service and not many people use it, no chef puts it in their custom roms. I haven't seen to much demand for it.
By the way, anyone try my cab? Does it work? I see 2 downloads so far...how about some feedback.
It would be cool to have a kind of VOIP walky talkie.

Not sure if I'm understanding you right, but if you already had PTT why did you install my cab? The cab installs correctly (make sure you reboot after install) and runs the program (you will get a prompt warning you that you will be charged). Just don't know if you can communicate through it (any results? anyone?).
thx
Just got online. Trying cab file now.... will be bacj

Just for reference I am using the Most Beautiful edition rom.
Navigate to HKLM/Software/HTC/CommManager
Do these following steps... (without the quotes)
Change "SuppordedFunctions" to 9 (if only at 7, I will show how to add IR as well)
If you DO NOT have IR in your Comm Manager:
Add a new key and name it "7"
In that key, create a new string value and name it "Default" with the data being "IR"
If you already have IR, then add this to get VOIP:
Add a new key and name it "8"
In that key, create a new string value and name it "Default" with the data being "VOIP"
There you have it. Now you have 9 settings in the Comm Manager. I do not know exactly what it does yet, just wanted to post my findings. Someone can maybe clean this up a little and add it to the Wiki if they find it helpful.
I just enabled this and it does indeed give you an 'IP Phone' icon, plus if you click the settings there is an IP Phone option. Neither actually do anything except make it beep....
I just put a sniffer on to see if there was a DNS lookup for a SIP server or anything when you click the Icon, there isn't I assume this will be something that is provided with your GSM contract and will be pushed down to the phone via OTA. If you click Phone Options, then services and get the settings for Voice Mail & Test Messages there is an option now for 'Internet Voice Mail', this is greyed out though.

at least it's possibly one step closer to figuring out how to get it to work... or at least how to turn it on and off when it is working.
I just tested this on the PDAVIET3 WM6 ROM. This brings up the Error message:
Comm Manager only supports 7 Entries. -> does NOT work.
In order to find out what is causing this please let me know where to check the Version of the Comm Manager(already have a dumped pdaviet3 rom on my pc at home.) so I can compare it to the Version you have.
I hope we can get this VOIP Service figured out soon

Look here
On the other thread about the Internet Calling in WM6 thers is a link to the MSDN site. If you dig about on here you can find lots of information regarding this; I thought this was interersting:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb330889.aspx
Unfortunately I don't have a SIP server so all I can do is sniff the network and watch the phone attempt to connect to the SIP server....
Andy
My Comm Manager version is 1.3.2.0
I also have a copy of 1.0.3.0 which I believe is from the 2.25.11 cingular shipped rom.
someone post a screen shot of the voip button please
The one in the linked thread now comes up with 8 functions at most. Has anyone got a rip of the Most Beautiful one?
I do.. here you go
Also working on getting a screen cap of the button.
Hmm that file isn't working for me, the 7 button that was integrated into Orwells worked with 7 max, the 8 button from the linked thread worked with 8 but that one just refuses to run, I'm on the clean WM6 ROM.
I made this cab with trojan9x's attachment and it worked for me
Here is the screenshot
Still no dice, I think a dll or something is needed for the Orwell ROM. Thanks anyway guys.
Here's how mine looks.

Great Find Trojan9x. It pushes us one more step closer to understanding the "Internet Calling" Feature.
@ TROJAN9x:
I tried adding these Registry settings on my HERMES with WM6 and it says that only 7 is supported. Do you have ny clue about HERMES and it's limitations or do you think there might be another setting for this?
But it works fine on my Wzards.
I have the dutty hybrid 2 tilt touchflo rom (or something to that effect).
I can't seem to find the "voice command" software that is bundled with Windows mobile 6. Was it removed or can I just not find it for some reason?
I looked through Dutty's changes and don't see that it was removed, nor do I see it mentioned that it was included.
Anyone have a way to "re install" it if it was removed?
Any help or direction would be appreciated. Did not see it when searching forum.
I'm not sure if it is in the rom you are talking about, I know he left out of his new v3 rom. It's not big deal to add just download the cab. and install it.
This is the link to dutty's downloads if you look under cab files it is included there.
http://www.cinetsystems.com/xda/index.php?path=TouchFlo/DualTouch+Editions/
the only thing I could find under the CAB files was the Cyberon voice commander. My understanding was that mobile 6 came with VOICE COMMAND embedded.
Is this available on a CAB and is the Cyberon Voice commander the same thing or a similar item.

The Microsoft Voice Command v1.6 is NOT bundled with any windows mobile program, you have to buy that separtely. What it is included with most of the rom is the voice dialer. Cyberon Voice Command was included at one point in Dutty's ROM but it was taken out because it is a software that needs to be brought (license/copyright thing). So he took it out to be safe.
Do a search on this site and then do a search IN the thread and you'll find some answers on using Voice Command v1.6 (v1.5 do not work with the Tilt)
Where can I found voice dialer? I don't believe it is in V 3.
found it. I guess sometimes I like to type for no reason.
I can see why Dutty isn't including the version he had access to. I can't get the thing to launch from an assigned button and it always gives an "error" messae, though I can launch from the start menu.
The thing works intermittenlty at best. I may pay for the microsoft version and just suck it up.
Again, just seemed that Microsoft eluded to the fact that it was included with Mobile 6. However, that is what I get for trusting "the man!"
See this post as I have links for various versions of MS Voice Command in here.

ok, now I'm curious, where about did you read that it is included as part of Mobile 6?
I guess my thinking it was included was 1) eluded to by my tech guy and 2) eluded to by a post or two on blogs when I googled the term.
However, when I look at the "official microsoft info" you are correct, it IS NOT included.
Once again, I was HOPING that microsoft wasnt going to be in my pocket yet again, but alas, they are if I want this software ! CRAP!

I do not believe there is an actual one that will work 100% off the bat, I've tested 3 of Dutty's ROM (Tilt Beta 2, 6b, and the 2.0 fixed) none of them works without doing the fix.
The fix is located on a link at dutty's v3 rom thread, there should be a link to a zip file, basially, you unzip the file and copy 3 of the files into the windows folder and 1 to the program files\voice command folder. (make sure voice command is not enabled -> settings->personal->voice command) and soft-reset then do the copies, soft reset, and enable it, then once more soft-reset.
I've tried not using the fix and it never worked, so the fix does the job. With the 'fix' I can have it announce to me when someone calls (either through the speaker or bluetooth) and more.
Hope this help.
thanks for the update!
Hello all. I can't seem to find the answer to this anywhere...
I have tried the PTT feature on my Tilt and dont like it and have had it removed, but I cannot get rid of the PTT icon in the title bar. Does anyone know how to get rid of it? Even if I turn off the PTT it just goes to a solid blue circle but nothing I've tried have I been able to get rid of it.
Thanks.
Flash your phone with a different ROM. I don't recommend this but theoretically if you get a registry editor maybe you can delete the registry for push to talk and then you'd be fine. I"d probably look for a cab to do this. go to google.com and type in Dutty it should give you a link for a website and I may be slightly off but its like dutty lives in eu or something like that. Click on that link and he has a couple of cab files maybe he updated some new ones
Actually all you have to do is kill the PTT service. For a noobie, the easiest way is to DL the trial of the BEST utility S/W called SK Tools from SKKV Software. In that proggie you can kill the service & the assign the button to something useful using the standard button settings in Start\Settings\Buttons.
Ok, so I've used Nextel before and don't care for PTT very often. However, PTT is pretty nice when you're doing cable jobs and have numerous brief calls.
I know I've seen a handful of ROMs that are PTT compatible, but am really looking for a more current one.
Is it possible to cook PTT back in using Alex's kitchen?
Does the base ROM have to be ATT?
Is it possible to dump say Laurentius' shiny new FAST rom and add it in?
OK What if YOU USED THE SEARCH FUNCTION?
I think You should ask about Cooking it in A Cooking Kitchen Thread.
Mods here is another redundant threadKyphur
Mods Please close this thread.
He told you right. But more importantly select a cooked rom that has PTT functionality already enabled. _Alex_ had one. I belive Sleuth did as well.

But what if i have a comment on this... Actually i dont think its redundant, no one has ripped PTT out and made it work, so im going to open it back up momentarily..
Im not sure if this will actually work, but it might be worth a try... the only issue you might run in to is with the dialer... you will need a PTT compatible dialer.
Thanks Shogun I'll give it a shot and see.

I re-opened the thread after being closed for a reason... dont make me close it again, so please play nice!
I'd have to agree with the OP. I use PTT on the daily, but a lot of the roms I like don't include it. I know it's a dialer issue, the question is, how do we fix it?
Sure we can use cabs and have *partial* functionality of PTT, but I'd really like to know who's chirping me regardless. The cabs don't give that. So since we all know it's a dialer issue, how do we fix it so that we can use any dialer *and* the PTT cabs?
That's where we need to focus. If only I could get a damn kitchen to run correctly on my laptop! LOL!
If someone can pull all the necessary stuff out for the horrible looking dialer, or make their own.. then we should be able to merge with my PTT cab and everything should be fine! I just dont know much about dialers..
Basically as the title states. I've been looking around (but never gotten around to) remapping the ptt button to something else. The logical thing for me is the camera. I have the long press key for the answer phone call set to voice command. That said with all the reading I've done I see ALOT of people have been setting the PTT button to camera so it would make sense if we had a really easy cab install for this.
Anyone up for the challenge? I would if I knew how!
Thanks,
Aaron
