Speed/Fast dial doesn't work with key 5. - Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other

Hi,
I have assigned speed dial codes to a bunch of mobile numbers. Starting from 2-9. If I press and hold key 5, it doesn't call the number it is assigned to. All other numbers works. All numbers are US numbers with the format 1(xxx) xxx-xxxx, calling them directly via contacts works fine.
Currently my device runs on Pampooh's Windows Mobile® 6.1 Standard CE OS 5.2.20282 Build 20282.1.3.6 (English Only) v1.05b ROM.
I had the same issue even when I was running earlier version of WM6.1 ROM by Erofich.
I remember that it used to work.
I can actually use the key 5 for all other purposes, for instance I can, dial numbers, access address book and type messages as well. So it can't be a hardware issue. I wonder if the cooked ROM's have anything to do with it. I have to mention that I like this ROM very much though, the phone is much more usable now.
Any help would be appreciated.
I have actually posted this question on the Star Trek specific forum earlier and now posting it here. Hope that's OK.
Thanks,
JSenthil

I, personally, would go to lumpi's kitchen and brew up a new rom, but if you must fix your current version, then go here. The only real differences between 2002 and 2003 for me are issues of current program compatability (new progs are writted for 2003 but alot of progs are still around for 2002) and the fact that you can use 2002 as a modem for another computer, in 2003 you can't.
Just go to lumpi's kitchen, cook your rom of choice as an exe, and install it via activesync (connect pc and ppc and run the exe). A few words of wisdom..... you might end up needing to use the sd method (still not too hard) to fix a messup (ie you lost power or disconnected your pc/ppc during upgrade). Only mess with OS roms, no radio roms (lumpi's are all OS/no radio). Once you flash a 4.x.x rom via activesync, you will only be able to change your rom via the sd flash method thereafter. And also, do a search for problems people have had. I for instance burnt in KSE truefax with 4.1.16, and my unit would only power on after a softreset (no power button).
SO, iether way, good luck and be carefull. it's more overwhelming than dangerous!
WITH THAT ALL BEING SAID, IF YOU ARE AN IDIOT, HAVE A BRAINFART, OR FRY YOUR DEVICE, WE ARE HERE TO HELP, BUT NOT TO BLAME! Anything you do to your device is your decision!
BTW the sms fix is safe!
Good luck!

Phone call a number displayed in a browser

Hi folks,
searching my favourite Google-Oracle and this forum didn't brought me anything about my question (except my search parameters are stupid choosen)
Is there a way to call a phone-number which is displayed in your browser (PocketIE,Opera-Mini) with your PDA (e.g. htc artemis)?
Just like - selecting the phone-number and hit the call button. But I don't want to copy paste the number, which are some clicks too much!
The web page can be modified by me, I don't necessarily want to take public pages, but my own designed ones.
Thanks in advance.
Here we go again.
Hope this will raise some attention to this thread again. (The "General" Thread is very frequently used, but I guess that's the problem. Difficult problems like mine aren't answered)
So there are no ideas?
What a mess.
only such plugin i even seen on pc was the skype plugin for IE which ended up pretty much seeing all 6 and 8 diget nr's as phone numbers
as browsers on pda are much less mature
i suspect your best bet would be to manualy copy paste the number
Meanwhile in a German Forum i got this:
With Opera Mini 4 you can click on a phone number an will be asked if you want to dial or not.
Since Opera Mini 4 ist not my choice (no local adresses browseable and all Websites are first "prepared" over an Opera Server) I will be waiting for Opera Mobile 9.5.
Opera Mobile 9.5 will let you dial a phone number on a website.
However I hoped, that there was some HTML-Tags or anything else which can tell you on PocketIE to dial a number.
That is shame really, even Blackberry browser and Iphone's Nautilus let you dial number displayed on the web page...

ROM with a dailer that allows me to edit the number

Dear members,
I have a kaiser with dutty's WM6.1 which I totally love, however, I am looking for a rom that allows me to edit a dialed number. Say I dial 0815361 , I am looking for a rom that would allow me to simply backspace the 0 and add 016 to dial 016815361.
Simple but driving me nuts. I am visiting a country that requires me to add a prefix to international calls. I just wanna be able to do this without editing every record in my phone book

I don't know if this would be a function of the ROM or the dialer installed, but certainly this would be a good feature, a rather obvious feature, since most cellphones have this capability.

I have never seen any dialer that let you edit numbers in the middle of a string, on any phone. Have you? I'd be interested to know.

HTC Touch Pro
anyone have new programs for the HTC Touch Pro with windows 6.1 operating system... I am tired of those Fruity phones having neat programs and I don't...

Hello!
I have got the Xda Diamond (~HTC Diamond from o2 Germany) with Windows mobile 6.1
I´m studying at the Technological University of Berlin. To log on the local area network (eduroam) of the university, I need a VPN client. But there is no version working with WM6.1, I tried about three different clients (it always says, that ... is no win32-application)
For example that one (as recommended by the network administration of the TU Berlin):

Does anybody which client I should take?
Thank You for answering and greetings from Germany
Network storage application
I would like to have an application that could convert my micro-sd card into a network storage, being able to access this folder through my home lan. It would be similar to WM5torage but for WiFi (not usb).
Please note that I'm NOT asking for a way to access a network folder in my PDA (the usual reply I get). I already know how to do this with total commander. What I want is a way to create a shared folder inside Windos Mobile, that I can access from my computer through my home network.
TIA.
Visual Voicemail
I think that Visual Voicemail is a place where Windows Mobile is lacking compared to the iPhone.
It would function by receiving emails with mp3/wav attachments from online voicemail services such as Youmail. It would cypher the information from the email and provide information for that voicemail.
There is a discussion on the topic right now:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=260
A developer has started toying with it but NEEDS help!
Thanks everyone!
Hi
Im using Imate Jam (Magician).
I want a software which turns my ppc into an answering machine i-e it can automatically reply/block sms and accept/reject/hang/answer calls based on predetermined rules. The software should also have the capablity of scheduling text messages and then sending them out smoothly.
Ill be extremely grateful if you help me out and provide such software.
If such software already exists please pardon me and tell me where to get it.

MOD EDIT 2: User is looking for something that supports wm 2003
i think my request would be somewhat easy to accomplish, but as im not so technically inclined (and somewhat too lazy to really try), ill ask here....
....what im looking for is a way to have area code matching on my Kaiser, or on Windows Mobile phones in general.....what i mean is like, when i receive or place a call, once the number is dialed, it shows the state corresponding to the area code i've dialed.....i know my old Samsung A920 did this, along with some other Samsung and Sanyo phones, and i think it would be great for WinMo....
Yet another think XDA's lack is a Myspace app. Maybe we can get something rolling like this facebook app that is being created???
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=455263
Please back me up if you would like to see an app like this.
A "visual voicemail" app for diamond and other ppc phones that can record phone calls
as some of you may already know the diamond can record both sides of a conversation during a phone call using the notes application.
I read in another forum where someone was asking about visual voicemail and since sprint charges for forwarding calls there is no good option.
I was thinking maybe if there was a developer willing to give it a go to develop a "visual voicemail" application that would answer the phone after a user defined amount of rings,
Record the message while muting the phone's mic of course that way you don't get background noise from your own phone and then save it in mp3 or wav.
Then have it give you the phone number the time, date and the option to listen to the message either with a built-in player or with windows media.
To give you a visual of what i'm talking about if you've seen the visual voicemail app on the samsung instinct something like that but everything is done on the phone side.
Hopefully someone will agree that this would be a useful program and give it a shot.

Hi All,
I juss found the update with HD elements in the forum which seems to have a good impact.
Let me start of with my problem. i'm using HTC Touch(might be ELF) and i keep visiting xda forums for new apps., for my fone. I installed Manila 2D earlier which made the fone very very very slow. I'm giving you my details of the fone below.

Jeyo Mobile Companion alternative and HTC Phone pad Upgrade
Well my request wouldnt be new anymore but i still want to pursue it if ever a developer would make it,
a jeyo mobiler software like, that can manage your text messages from the pc, send, recieve and read text messages from the pc and lastly a decent back up process that could backup even if ur message is over 160 characters (1 message line) jeyo has a screw up on the back up process coz, it shortens a text message fixed to 160, so if your text message is 165, if jeyo is to back it up it will only store a 160 char message back up. you lost the data. I need to back up morethan 5000 messages and most of which are over 160 character.
another request would be a newer version for HTC phone pad input..
this input application ROCKS! its like using a cellphone keypad over your pocket pc. so texting wouldnt be so much of a problem if your walking or something. the modification i would like to ask is character deletion from 2 character to one and higher WM version compatibility, as I tried it before, phone pad had issues with WM6.1.
alarm sound on vibrate/silent?
in some ROM's there is an option under "more" in clock & alarms that allows you to enable the alarm sounding when on silent or vibrate. does anyone know of a CAB that you can install that will add this feature without downloading the whole ROM'?
VGA Backgrounds
Looking for a VGA background using orange & blue and/or the Florida Gators, University of Florida, UF, Gators... you get the idea. If not familiar with what shades of orange & blue... see examples of the latter.
I use TF3D, so I'm not looking for full out themes- no TSK files please.
Is there an application to delete a file && is there an application to run commands like dos batch??? my target is to make an installing cab that on the next startup start an application and then delete the file started or the link to the started application

Hardware Keyboard "Sym" functionality disabled

Hi,
I have installed the Hornet 5.1b ROM that has Win6.1 as the OS. I am able to use all the hardware keyboard functions as standard i.e. the default letters and default symbol for each key.
The problem I have is that the "Sym" key found on teh Wizards spacebar will not cycle through the available symbols available for that specific key. I.e. If, on standard Windows Mobile device, I wish to enter the pound symbol (£) I would press the Fn key + the G letter that has the $ sign as it's default symbol. I would then press the Fn key and the Sym key to cycle through to change the symbol to £.
The actual Sym function on my current ROM does not work. There is no functionality at all for this button.
I do not want to flash to another ROM as I am very happy barring this one issue. I am wondering if anyone knows how to regain this Sym functionality? I have done plenty of searching and most results will refer to language changes - this is not what my problem.
Hope to get a helpful response to this thread.
Cheers,
DocJ0nes
I just wanted to thank you because I never knew you could do that!
It works fine on my custom WM6.0 ROM.
OK on WM6.5
Just to remark that sym function works fine on my Qtek 9100 h/w keyboard running WM6.5. I'm using XDA2's (Haseeb's) ROM.

Glad to help at least
How is the 6.5 ROM? I'm reluctant to try it as my tests with converted language ROMS in the past have not been fun.
Anyone else know a solution to my problem...?

Well, in general workable. Slow in messaging start-up, but otherwise like a heavily-loaded 6.1 Well worth the "sacrifice" in my case. I use Spb Mobile Shell v.3.0 and have disabled CHome.
Hi All,
Can one of you guys send me a UK version of the sym.txt file found in the root of the windows directory on your wizard. The sym.txt may have a 4 digit number in the filename, this is the one I need.
I would like to compare the file you have with a working "Sym" button configuration and hopefully fix mine myself.
PM me for my email address if you are interested in helping me

Like everyone else, I thank you for telling us about the feature. I always wondered what "sym" was supposed to do. It also does accent marks. =]
I'm pretty sure I don't have a UK sym.txt and I don't know where to get one, but here is my sym.txt if you want to compare anyways. It works, but I think it is WWE:
