Hello,
I was wondering if there is a possibility to know when a call is forwarded to me. For example on Nokia phones there is a sign ">" before the number of caller, and by that I always knew when a call was forwarded to me. Is it possible to do something like this on WM5 ?? I think it would be universal to all WM5 equipped pocketPCs with phone, but if not I'm using TyTN.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
Does anyone know of a prog to divert calls?
I do understand that you can set up one divert profile with the operator, but being awkward I would like to set up more than one.
Don't know if there is a utility out there to do this.
Any help greatly appreciated.

You mean as in to forward your calls? Go to Start>>Settings>>Phone>>Services Tab>>Click "Call Forwarding" then "Get Settings" Button and adjust from there.
EDIT: You want to be able to change this easily using "profiles"? A option would be to use a marcro recorder or a script editor and give each macro/script/profile its own icon, so that when you click it it does the above. I used the program MacroRecorder when I had a smarphone, it may work on our OS too, I'm not sure. You could also download MortScripts if you'd prefert to write a script.
Hi thank you for your input.
You have got the idea exactly, got a new car with a "stupid" car kit built in.
The car kit takes a sim card... never heard of bluetooth!!!!!
O2 say they don't (and never have) offered a "dual sim" option. I was hoping to switch the phone off when I got in the car.
So the next idea is to put a pay as you go sim in the car kit and diver all calls from the main number to the car kit.
I already have a divert set up when I cannot take a call, and being lazy I suppose would love a little utility that swaps the divert between the two numbers.
Probably not upto writing scripts or macro as i don't want to mess up my phone
But once again thank you for your help
Not a tool but....you may check out *# codes (aka "GSM codes"), compose the one you need and create a phonebook entry. To run the network service you may put this entry to a speed dial button and activate it manually when you enter the car. Means you run a call to this "number". That's how I forward all calls from my private phone to my company phone: in the morning: call **21*mynumber# and to switch forwarding off in the evening: call #21#. Works pretty good.

Cheers,

Thank you so much
PERFECT
You are welcome...
btw: you will most likely be charged for call forwarding between different providers. At least in Germany they do it.
The coolest thing for you would be T-Mobile-like "Multi-SIM". IMHO the best Multi-SIM implementation ever as you can leave both phones switched on and none of them is kicked out of the network. They just ring both and both present the same number to the far end.
It's a shame that O2 doesn't offer something like this...
Luckily O2 offer unlimited O2 to O2 calls so with luck the divert will be included.
The lady on customer support was quite useless (as per usual) didn't know if it was or wasn't
Can't use T-Mob no reception at home
Going to try and block/bar own number on the pay as you go sim so I can make outgoing calls without confusing people too much.
I blame you Germans - thought Porsche would have a bluetooth PCM - Land Rover have for about 3 years as standard!!! lol
Thank you again for all your help, hopefully a German car will be more reliable than a Land Rover
Porsche? Great! At least it will have better brakes than a Landy
There is also a program "PhoneAlarm" which can be used to divert calls. You can feed 4 or 5 numbers to which you would like your calls to be diverted. From the Today Screen Plug-In of phonealarm you just need to press and hold and you would be presented with a list of numbers to select the one you currently want the calls to be diverted to.

thanks so much. it worked on my diamond. Indian model.
Hello,
I did a search but I couldn't find the answer.
I have two mobile numbers and one it’s redirecting/forwarding all calls to the second.
On "normal" mobile phones (ex. nokia) it's easy to see if a phone call received on the second number is a redirect call from the first number or a direct call to the second because the redirect calls have a distinct icon.
But on my WM6 PDA there isn't any difference. How can I identify these calls?
Thanks in advance.
That is one of the few good things Symbian has that PPC does not, that and call recording. i just think it was left out.Why? i couldn't tell you. If you find a way to implement it please let us know.
Ok.
Thanks
Hello I'm quite a novice at cell phone stuff to please forgive me if I'm asking in the wrong place or wrong question.
I bought a Samsung Admire R720 about 6 months ago. It's umm locked for the carrier MetroPCS. I never activated the phone with them because I didn't have the money yet. I just always used the wifi wherever there was a hotspot. I also rooted it because I wanted to use more advanced tools like the wifi analysis and Titanium backup etc. I also used Groove IP on the phone to use my google voice while I was on wifi. Now the fun begins.
I activated the device with Metro online and did all the MEID stuff and the phone seems happy but I cannot dial a call to anyone (unless I use groove ip). When a number is dialed, it rings once and a recording pops up saying:
PS01 Your call cannot be completed. Bye. *click*
Everything else works on the phone though. I can accept incoming calls to the cell phones number. I can text and I can surf the web. All with the wifi radio turned off so I know its going through the carrier.
I'm lost as to why it wont simply make a call out. I have the android toolkit here and can use adb to do anything you ask of me, dumplog push pull... whatever. I've seen the dumplog while trying to make a call and I have a copy of it but I would rather one of you more experienced folks tell me what to search for then post it here. Otherwise the dump is huge and messy because its raw with no modifiers.
Any help would be much appreciated. I do have a ticket in with MetroPCS but I think the real techs there aren't very available or none exist.
Thanks in advance!

I have a Photon Q 4G LTE bought from Freedompop, running the Freedompop ROM. Receiving calls works. However, initiating calls gets me a
"The number or code you have dialed is incorrect, please check the number or code ...
Message 7 Switch 426".
The outgoing call does connect, if its answered while the message is playing there is
no voice in either direction until the message is over, and then its only from destination
to phone. If its answered after the message is done, voice works in both directions.
The message is quite long since its repeated in Spanish. Results are the same, wifi or
LTE.
Freedompop tech support could not diagnose this and had me send the phone back.
The replacement has the identical problem, and could actually be the same phone
(I didn't record the serial number, so I'm not sure). I have uppated the PRL and Profile
with no change, and the Freedompop App is also the latest.
Any idea whats wrong, or how to work around it?
