VOIP software hangs phone

Hi,
I bought the Excalibur and the Vox 'cause I though it would have been great being able to place VOIP calls from my phone, using the same setup I use with my ATA.
The files to enable VOIP and MS phones have been circulating since a while, but even though I tried couple of packages I still have some issues.
The problem I have is that, for some strange reason, when the VOIP cab is installed my phone sometimes loses "Calling and receiving" capability.
Sometimes I trie to place a phone call and the phone hangs, I can only switch it off and on again. Sometimes I even have to remove the SD card otherwise it will keep doing a Reboot Loop.
Other times I receive an SMS for a missed call, as if I had been offline. When I then try to call back my phone hangs.
This bug seems to affect only the Calls and not the SMS functionality.
Has anybody experienced the same issue?
Thanks,
Ka.

I also have the same problems except for the SD rebooting.
I installed the VOIP client from the workarround posted here and I also experience the same problems:
1) phone seems to work fine until I decide to place a call, when I finish entering the numbers and I hit the Call button, the phone does nothing (not even the beep) and from that point I know that I can't place calls (dial pad doesn't even works on home screen). I have to reboot.
2) I receive SMS from missed incoming calls. If I call my S710 from another phone I get a calling tone and then the answering service, but the S710 does nothing.
I had email accounts configured and I thought this problem was from GPRS not letting GSM calls come in (as it says in other threads) but now I have no active email accounts, no GPRS traffic and it is ever worst (3 to 4 reboots a day!)
I honestly don't remember this problem before VOIP client installed.
Anyone has this simptoms???

I do have the same probs
Probably others aren't experiencing the same because they disable the VOIP when no Wifi is available. I'll try to reinstall the VOIP Cab and try that way.
Bought the S710 for it's VOIP cababilities and possibility to hook it to my PBX and finally feel the freedom of VOIP (Ok, bit exagerating but you get my point ).
Anyway, since we're two at the moment, promised to keep you posted.
Thanks for your help.
Ka.

Hi there,
sorry for taking so much time. Actually been quite busy lately and well, ok, must admin left this VOIP thing a bit aside.
Anyway, would you mind trying this version, hope it will work a bit better.
Tested with the provider you sent me and it seems to work.
(This is not a Cab Install thing, been packed up in couple of minutes, please unzip it and run it from your mobile.)
I think I'll get back to this so stay tuned for some little enhancements.
Ka.

COOOL.....Works on my modded Tornado with wm06...great!!!!Thanks!!!!

Hello Kast,
After my last post, I unistalled the VOIP software from within the phone's start>Settings>Remove Programs>Sleuth's WM6VoIP
I got this message "Sleuth's WM6VoIP was not completly removed. Do you want to remove it from the list of installed programs?", I didn't remove it.
I then changed the Settings>phone>Internet Calling>"Use Internet Calling" to "Never".
Since then I haven't experienced any troubles at all and I haven't rebooted the phone for some days now! problem solved but no VoIP!
I'll try your VoIP files and see what happends.
Cheers
P.S. My setting for VoIP was "whenever available" but i had WiFi off 99% of the day. (some days even 100%).

Can't receive incoming calls

Hi there, I am using VJgrace latest 3.4 ROM, I realized that nowadays, sometimes I would not be able to receive incoming calls, my friends and relatives have complained that I do not pick up their calls, they even showed me the proof of their call logs. They said there were dialing tone. So one day, I tried for myself and true enough, at times, the phone will just light up from idle, but it will not say that there is an incoming calls. When this happen, I cannot make outgoing calls as well, when I try to dial someone, it just hang there.
Any solution? Is this a radio or ROM problem?
I have run the GSM update

I faced the same problem too. I thought my friends were joking. just called myself to confirm. true enough the phone lights up for a second or two then it goes back to sleep.
this is serious. am thinking of going back to WM 5

Really? Wow. That's a new one. I guess I haven't seen this. illi - would you really go *all* the way back to WM5? Are you saying this is a problem in every WM6 ROM you have installed? I'm surprised... I've never seen it on my phone. But I don't get too many calls during the day. And I reboot my phone every 2 or 3 days just for good measure.

i cant afford to loose calls. some friends had complained since a few months back. so i suspect its all WM6 ROMs not just vj's.
i think it happened when the device is syncing because i receive lots of emails. so at that time the gprs/edge is being use. THIS IS MY WILD GUESS ONLY!! I noticed it (the device awakes then back to sleep) once while on active sync and at that moment emails were being downloaded from my email server.
How can yew trouble shoot this problem?

Do you have this checkbox selected? I'm not sure if it makes a difference, but it's one thing I saw.

not too sure but will check next time i active sync. anyway i rarely sync with my pc so i doubt thats the problem - i noticed once while hooked to pc the phone awakens and then sleep. i use mail2web.com's microsoft exchange to sync my emails. i active sync only to do spring cleaning on my device and SD.
if karhoe subscribe to the same telco as me than i suspect its the operator. (hello karhoe you there;-))

I have this problem even when the phone is not connected to Active Sync, when i'm outside. The phone just light up, and then poof, gone. Well, I am using DiGi telco. But I don't have this problem when using Andot's PEE, don't have it when using 3.0 ROM, only recently when I started using 3.1, had this problem, after so long, then use 3.4, still have it

I had this issue with WM5.. now with WM6 I didn't found (yet) this issue. (using EA ROM)
This is a quote of one of my posts (Oct 7 2006, 18:43, modaco):
i think this is a software issue..
i have a spv c600 and have problem with the telephony part (and many other spv c600 users)
1. some times when somebody is calling me the phone does not announce in any way that i have a call.
2. other times when somebody is calling me the phone send automatically a busy tone to the caller and again does not announce me that somebody has called me.
3. and other times when somebody is calling me, the caller is announced by the robot that 'the user is in an uncovered area or has the phone turned off' or it divert it to voice mail (if the WM user has voice mail active. i have it off)
however, point 1 and 2 can be 'detected' by eye on call (phonesharpen). only detected (no answer, no nothing).
- in the first case, a window with caller information is displayed as long as the caller is calling you.
- in the second case, a window appears and disparears extremly fast
to bad that the phonesharpen does not log the detected calls . i have mailed them about this, but on answer..
i gues the problem is the native telephone application
so .. in conclusion WM smartphones are not recommended for people who want to use them as a phone.. who knows what important calls you miss.. i hope this will be fixed someday

@karhoe you should tell this to NiTroGeN and to VJgrace

Gentlemen, I suspect this issue is somehow connected to currently selected homescreen. I had this issue on WM6 build 18120 homescreen with VOIP plugin, but when I chose another one not containing VOIP info, this issue has gone

I tend to believe that it is caused by either of these problems:
1 - the telco (I'm subscribing to the same telco as karhoe)
2 - the voip plugin on the Homescreen
This is what I'll do: I shall deactivate the voip plugin. But I cant afford to unsubscribe from my current telco; it offers the cheapest unlimited data plan. LOL!!

I have a feeling that it is related to VOIP, I did configure my VoIP using the xml method, and then I also installed the VoIP fix button for communication manager. Now im using HTC Home screen and so far, so good

Using a phone through my pc

I didnt really know where to put this, but here goes anyway
I have a HTC S710 with a broken screen. Im currently using it through MyMobiler, but this is really slow and then theres a number of smaller problems with it too.
I was wondering if there was any program which means you can use the resources avaliable on my phone, sms, calls etc, through my pc. Maybe a faster program similar to mymobiler. I think it would be great if it showed a popup when there was a text or an incoming call?
I have searched and not come up with anything usefull.
also, another thing i want to know is if there is any way to make my phone turn on speakerphone automatically upon answering a call?
Thanks, Cris

There are a few diffrenet apps available, but MyMobiler is the best, especially since it's free. There is an app here as well for turning on the speaker during an incoming call as well.
Just a question though, why wouldn't get a replacement device. Seems odd to only control it through your PC.

well, i dont want to replace it simply because im a student, therefore i cant really afford it. Secondly i just like this phone, so it seems a waste to not use it at all any more when it still functions as a phone even if i cant see whos calling.

I dont suppose you have a link to this app do you?

SpeakerPhone v1.05 (cab attached) when an incoming call is received, the speakerphone of your device will automatically turn ON when you receive a call.
Here is the LINK for further info...

thanks
thank you reaper

Sound output stops randomly.. no more ring/voice, etc

i've had the Touch Pro for a little over a week and i absolutely LOVE IT.
the only problem i have is that every now and then, all sound output dies in the device
the phone wont ring anymore, it would only vibrate.. and if you try to raise or lower the volume, no sound comes out at all either.
the only way out is to reset the phone which i'm doing now on a daily basis hoping to avoid missing calls and messages when the phone only vibrates while it's away from me.
anyone have the same problem and/or a solution?

Hello AntiProxy,
Unfortunately, welcome to the club...
You are the 3rd person I've counted that has that problem. A post is already active on it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=422322
What is weird is that you don't have the same ROM as Zillator and I (we have the same ROM).
I'm really starting to think it is an hardware problem then and that we'll have to send the phones back...
Please check the other post.

Hello Flippy.
yeah i noticed your thread earlier but thought our general symptoms are different.
in my case and when the problem happens, the phone no longer rings, no more message notifications, etc.
and it doesn't happen while the phone is ringing.. it just seems to die off randomly.
like the other day a friend came over and asked if i got his message.. i checked and found 3 messages.. no missed calls.
figured the sound was low, so i hit volume up and increased it to the max, but still no sound was coming out..
i asked him to call.. the phone vibrated, no ringtone.. i answered.. he could hear me, but i couldn't hear him.
now the only good news i might be able to give you, is that i've had this same issue back in the day with my blueangel (i-mate pda2k) and it got solved with a new radio rom.
don't ask me what's this got to do with the radio.. it worked back then.

Same here m8!
When my phone does like that I usually realize when calling. But when it does happen all my sounds are ded as well (volume up/down you don't hear sound, it vibrates without ringing and all other sounds are dead).
We have exactly the same symptoms!

i have this prob too. is worse when i use my bluetooth headset. the, it crashes while in the middle of a call.... how do we get this fixed? called HTC service centre and they suggested i upgrade ROM. read in other places that htc changed the mainboard...
any ideas??
PS, i have the exact same rom, radio and proto as @antiproxy

[Still awaiting solution] Cannot call from my Fuze, need urgent help.

Suddenly today, around an hour ago, I found out that I am not able to call from my Fuze. I can dial, but I don't hear any ring of the number I am calling. I put the SIM card in other phone and it can make calls. I am now sure what is wrong, could someone please provide some much needed suggestions?
I wouldn't have opened this thread as a new issue, and even if later it gets moved, I am seeking some urgent help, so I am posting it as a thread. Thanks.

Did you check in the comm manager to see if you turned airplane mode on or turned the radio off?

Yes, I did and the Airplane mode is off and the Radio is on. Somehow, not being able to call has coincided with not being able to connect to 3G too. The problem happened all of as sudden. I even made some calls this morning from my Fuze, and suddenly, it just would not make any more calls from it. Any more suggestions? I really don't want to hard reset it, as I have so much customization on it. Thanks.

i would backup and preform a HR to make sure it's hardware related

is the speaker bad? does the phone work on speakerphone?
does the call fail?

Agreed do a hard reset...if that doesnt work its the phone itself and a warranty issue. Which AT&T will take care of

I want to avoid a hard reset; I did it just last week. I understand why you would suggest to do that, but I want to avoid it, if I can.
The speakers work just fine; I played music. While on a call, I can't hear anything. The call seems to be in progress, but no party can hear anything. I haven't spoken to any person I called to verify if they received my call. If this could be something to do with radio, is there a way to deal with it? I am using everything stock. Please keep your suggestions coming.

The music and the speaker form calling are not the same, does it work on speakerphone?

Thanks for your response scotchua. The speakerphone was not working, to answer your question.
Update: I can make calls now.
But, instead of closing this thread, I would like to keep it alive, as I don't know what created the problem and what solved it. As I said, when I couldn't make calls, the data connection was not getting established either. If it was a problem with the connection or AT&T's tower, I would not have been able to make calls when I inserted my sim card into another phone. For about 6 - 7 hours, I had to use another phone, which does not have the features that Fuze has.
later in the evening, I put the sim cad back into Fuze, just to try if it worked, and it did work; I can make calls now. This actually complicates the problem, as I don;t know what caused it and it scares me that this can happen again and I, or anyone else who would be having a similar problem, will not know how to fix it. If keeping this thread alive does not seem like a waste of time to the community, please provide more suggestions regarding what may have caused the problem. Thanks.

i had the same problem with my fuze. I could not hear from the phone when making a call, but i could hear from the speakerphone. I reset the phone, changed ROM and tried everything. Nothing worked so I had to return the phone for a replacement.
