My Answer and Ignore buttons do not work on incoming calls!

As my subject says, does anyone know where in the registry I should look to fix this? I have been uninstalling and reinstalling S2U2 since about version 0.72 or so and been using it's callerID function as well. So maybe between all the reinstalls somehow my registry has been corrupted? I noticed recently my call pickup and ignore wasn't working in S2U2 caller ID and thought it might be an S2U2 problem. But I uninstalled S2U2 and when I click Answer or Ignore from the WM6 default callerID, it does nothing! It highlights the button as if I were pressing it, but doesn't do anything. Can anyone help guide me for where I should look in the registry? Or any other advice? I have an HTC P4000 (Canadian CDMA Titan) with the carrier (Telus) default ROM of WM6 that it came with.

Brockmo,
When this happens do you have a current connection via EvDO active or dormant? Are you in EvDO coverage or 1X. I have similar problems too with and without S2U2. I have had better luck with 2.17 OS and 1.47.01 radio, if I press the hard talk key several times it will pickup, I found disabling constant evdo connection definately helps. Blackberry is still the ultimate push solution, WM6 is ok, but there is definate issues with prioritizing Voice over Data. Voice should be the #1 priority over any thing else.

Mistakes by a Noob

Just thought that i would throw this out there, not sure if it's a duplicate post.
After upgrading to dutty's 6.1, the vmail was the wrong number and mms didn't work, also there was a number for text message service that i was wary about.
After some research i found the following.
I use AT&T so here is what i found
This is for MMS
https://www.wireless.att.com/support/deviceConfig.do?content=KB84421.htmll
And this is for the Vmail and sms
https://www.wireless.att.com/suppor...alsCategory=Getting+Started&tutorialId=613750
Hope this helps someone. I know it took me about 2 days to find these issues and about 2 hours of research to find these answers.
Have a great day!

those numbers are carrier dependent. They access some server of your account that stores that information. If you mess with the settings on this phone, those settings will carry to future phones. I screwed it up one time, and had to call AT&T to put in the right number, because I really don't memorize that voicemail number.

Use the Network Setup Wizard cab. Sleuth's 6.1 has it (which I'm back to after trying Dutty's). Search around. If you have it in Dutty ROM it would probably be in Settings, System or settings, connections. If it's there, try running it again.

Already fixed
My post was just for info purposes specific to AT&T.
These settings never even crossed my mind, as they were setup by the factory.
Hence the topic.
Just trying to help other people from making the same mistakes, trust me, when my wife started giving me hell for no pic messaging, I though i would tell others to save them from my fate!
Network setup cab, got it, thanks.

Calls going straight to voice mail without ringing

I just started using the phone (with original ROM) in Rogers/Fido network in Toronto, and I have been getting on and off calls going straight to voice mail without the phone ever ringing (no missed call notification by the phone).
Anyone else having the problem? Is it related to the phone going to deep sleep state or polling frequency? Any tweaks or registry editing which would reduce the chance of that?
This is a serious problem for me, as I need reliability. I don't mind giving up some battery performance to correct it.
I may trying updating the GSM Radio. Will it make any difference? As I understand, updating GSM Radio only should not erase all the programs like updating OS ROM does, am I correct? I would back up before doing so.

Sorry to state the obvious, but did you accidentally set your phone to forward all calls to voicemail in setting?

No. And this does not happen all the time. If I make a call from the phone, then it can start to receive calls without any problem. It just happens at random. And when it happens, repeated calls will all go straight to voice mail.
And I have disabled the no answer forwarding, so it should keep ringing until the caller hangs up.

hey -
first, I'd like to say these forums are awesome! thanks for the great info.
But i am having the 'straight-to-voice mail' problem with my TC too. It doesn't happen every time, but every once and a while i get a voice mail indicator, but the phone never rang. My girlfriend actually called me 3 times in a row, 2 of which went right to mail, the third one rang. odd. So if anyone has any ideas, i would appreciate it!
Edit: I am also on Fido in Toronto. I have been looking around, and there is the suggestion that perhaps this is a problem with the 'Who Called' or 'Name display' features of voicemail, which doesnt work well with some phones. Now i am not sure if this is it - but i upgraded my VM at the same time I got the TC. Another suggestion has been that the Radio Rom doesnt work well with some netorks. Can anyone confirm/deny this? Any other ideas?

hmm - anything new on this?

For me, my workaround solution is to disable 3G - network settings changed to "GSM" instead of "Auto". Now, the calls have been very reliable with no straight to voice mail problem.
So it looks like there are some incompatibility issues with my 1.58.21.23 Radio ROM and Rogers/Fido network/3G. But I don't know where to look for a better radio ROM (other than loading everything for trial and errors).
And which radio ROM is compatible with Polaris? Only those made for Polaris or the same class of phones? It is rumored that Rogers would release Kaiser very soon, so I presume that Kaiser's Radio ROM (not OS obviously) should be compatible?

aww...i really hope it's not 3G - i guess i might as well cancel that data plan Anyway, I've disabled it, so we shall see if it remedies the problem.
Edit: for those of you who are having the same problem and want to disable 3G but still want to be able to use 3G data every once and a while, I have installed Schap's Advanced Configuration too (which is awesome, btw, and can be found by searching the forums). It has a handy feature that permits you to add 3G on/off to the comm. manager, which makes switching between GSM and 3G really easy. Just thought I'd share.

Just grabbed this thread out and update it here:
Seems the problem does not depend mandatory on using 3G or GPRS
and also not depending on the Radio version. I have noticed missed
calls with enabled 3G and with GPRS only. And I have noticed them
with Radio 1.58.23.21 and with 1.64.08.21 on bepe WM6.1 0.64 GER.
I also have a friend who confirmed he noticed missed calls on stock
WM6.0 GER from O2 germany with stock Radio 1.58.23.21. Its annoying!!
I had the same problems with my old Hermes (TyTN 1) with all ROMs
and all Radio versions also. It's a pity to seem the problem persist on
the Polaris I mean, hey, the TC is some kind of phone, isn't it?
And the main task for a phone is being able to receive a call if radio
reception is OK. Never had a standalone phone, which suffered such
problems...

Hi everyone, I have been having the exact same problem on my Cruise (and no, my phone is not set to forward to voice mail). It's very odd since it seems to happen randomly. I found it resolves temporarily if i make a call then hang up.
Can anyone follow-up if switching to "GSM" instead of "Auto" resolves the issue. This has become a serious problem for me and would appreciate any help. Thanks!
UPDATE: after several days of testing, i am happy to say that i have not had any problems since swithching to GSM

Mine is not doing the same in Vancouver.bc Fido.
I've tried multiple radio roms and am gradually working my way down the list from newest to oldest. so far no difference.
Any other ideas?
sorry to resurrect an old threat.

US T-Mobile with WM6: Missed calls / no voicemail notification

I know many people, including myself, have been trying to find the best combination of WM6/6.1 ROM and radio ROM to eliminate the missed call problem on our wizards.
I think part of the problem is our feedback is spaced apart in many threads and there is often varying results based on carrier. For this reason, I'm creating this thread for all US T-Mobile users to post their own results with their wizards.
I'm running TNT.19199 Series V.2. I have push e-mail through activesync and GPRS always on. I'm based in NY, but I travel in NJ often and have the same results in both states.
On my first flash, I was using the US T-Mobile stock radio rom (2.25.11) and I was missing calls and not getting voicemail notifications.
I changed my radio to UK T-Mobile radio rom (2.19.11) and I thought I had good results for a few weeks, until this weekend I missed 5 calls and received voicemail notifications and text messages about 20 minutes late. I had service during this time, but no calls came in.
Any US T-Mobile users, please post your own positive and negative experiences with WM6/radio roms and missed calls.
Any other wizard users having missed call issues, I encourage you to create similar threads specific to your own carriers.

In batterystatus do you have the default minimum speed set to 143MHZ. If you do change it to 175 or higher. I have had missed calls below 175.

same here!!
im using tnt's 6.1 my ipl/spl is 3.08 and 2.71 radio.. i wasnt having any problems for about 2 weeks until this week of april.. i missed 5 calls and 9 text messages.. so im switching to 2.19 and see how that goes for about a week.. but the radios i guess usually work better depending on where you live..

Me Too
I'm in the same boat. I'm using TNT.19199 Series V.2 with push email on. I don't have GPRS always on (just when a push is needed). I missed two calls and 1 voice mail this past weekend. I never had this problem on WM 5 and the stock T-Mobile rom. I'm using radio version 2.25 here in Washington State, US.
BTW, activesync seems to run much more often that neccessary -- not just when a new email is available. Sometimes it seems that it it always phoning home. I know there have been some threads that state the "fix" for missed calls is to turn off push email but like I said it wasn't a problem on WM 5.
BTW, I do OC to 234 using BatteryStatus and default to 195 at bootup.
I'd be happy if there was some applet that could be scheduled to check for voice mail and missed calls from the t-mobile cloud. Speaking of scheduling... I wonder if this has something to do with the Notifications database? I don't know what it does exactly but I do know that activesync uses it for some of it's scheduling. Maybe we are missing some entry in the Notifications database that is scheduled to periodically check for messages, etc. I too suffer occationaly to the miriad of mesage popups related to dupe events in the Notifications database.

USE 2.19

Change to 2.19 radio. Best radio for WM6 and WM 6.1 no missed calls.
Refering to the batterystatus, if you are overclocking and use the cpu scaler function and have the minimum cpu speed below 175 you may miss calls. Not the default to 195 after reboot.

Thanks
Thanks Goofy. I'm going to try radio v2.19 in the next couple of days. I don't find any option for cpu scaler in the battery status config. Maybe I'm using an old version?
I really do think part of the problem lies with check notifications. This morning I awoke to find I was connected to edge for 12 hours. I have it set to auto-disconnect after 2 minutes of inactivity. I turned of Exchange push and guess what?!?!? It still tried to sync a minute later. I just purged 3 dupe check notifications so let's see how that works.
BTW, Anyone know where activesync keeps its log? I set log level to verbose but don't know where it keeps it? Is that just the "status" page information that it keeps?

I always had this problem with my MDA and T-Mobile, regardless of ROM. It was especially frustrating when I missed a call for a job interview because of it. Since I have switched to AT&T (several months now) it has not happened again.

I flashed my boss' phone to WM6.1 a few days ago and he is having the same problem with missed calls and missed text alerts. I just upgraded the radio to 2.19.11 and will see where this goes...

I'm having missed calls as well. Actually... they are being logged as incoming calls! Or sometimes not logged at all. I've tried 2.19.11 and 2.25.11 radio only roms. I've tried removing htc dialer and disabled smart dialing. I have tried several wm6 and wm6.1 roms, all have the same results. I have missed calls displayed under sounds and notifications. I guess I going back to wm5... sadly, I've determined wm6 just isn't made for the MDA nor will it EVER work properly with it. I guess I'm getting a T-Mobile Wing sometime soon.
update: I've gone back to wm5 for now and no more missed calls. Some advice for those insisting on keeping wm6, the tmo boring rom had the LEAST missed calls of any wm6 rom I tried along with 2.19.11 radio.

I'm having pretty much the same situation with missed calls and no voicemail notifications. I'm running 2.25.11 radio, but have used this for a long time with WM5 with no problem. The problem started when I installed TNT.19199 on my T-mo Wizard.
Has the downgraded radio worked consistently for anyone?

2.25.11 worked great with WM5, but most radios miss call with WM6, except 2.19. Flash it on your phone and try it.

I found a solution... hopefully!
Alright, I hate wm5! So, i've gone back to wm6.1 and have finally figured this out. For me at least, it seems to be the GPRS/EDGE connection being active. If I disconnect, the missed calls are displayed. If data is connected, missed calls are logged as incoming calls and I get no notification. Sadly, to fix the always active connection, I've had to get rid of the exchange server and setup email manually. Also setting up a bogus server through activesync and setting schedule as "manually" should kill the constant data connection. I haven't figured out why this doesn't happen with wm5, this is so stupid! If this doesn't work for everyone, please let me know by posting your experience.
To disconnect gprs/edge automatically, use GB-SOFT Tweak. Seems to work while device is asleep too!

I'm going to bump this.
How is everyone doing with the 2.19.11? Any missed events? What rom?
I have been running this radio for a long time, shortly after i stepped into the WM6 world. Recently though after flashing the TNT WM6.1 (19199), I have been missing events, but it only seemed to start a fews weeks after the flash. There was one time where i missed events for an ENTIRE evening, it wasn't until the next morning when i soft reset my phone did the text messages and VM notifications start rolling in. i have also caught it a few other times.
It seems theres going to be no end to WM6 and the missed even problem, might have to upgrade to the 8525.

I'm using Jaguar 4.0 ROM (WM6, not WM 6.1) from here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=356683)
IPL/SPL 3.08
Radio is 2.71.11
Battery Status with CPU Scaler (min=143, Org=195, Max=260, boost=273).
Rock solid. No missed calls. Great ROM.
With
SPB Pocket Plus/Diary/Weather
Photo Plugin (kind of TMO myFaces)
Google search
VoIP
etc, etc, etc ... ~500 phone numbers
Free memory after loading 25.5M

I am running my own 6.1 cooking and am NOT having problems with missed calls. The codebase I'm using is '199 based.
I'm running 2.25.11 for the radio side and am happy with it.

Changing incoming SMS datestamp to a timestamp...

Okay, I apologize in advance to the Mods, I am not sure if this really fits under development/general or both. It's not really "ROM" Development so to speak and seems to be a generic windows mobile setting though it may be of some use to someone, as it was for myself.
My Telus branded HTC Snap(Cedar) would only datestamp incoming SMS and there is no real way to change this that I was able find (It is timestamped with the 3VO rom now). My buddy today was complaining about this exact thing today with his Telus HTC Touch(Vogue) and being as curious as I am, I did some quick comparisons in the registry values, and found this to be a simple change.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\SMS] RecvTimeStamp
With these 2 phones at least, the provider default was a setting of 0 resulting in datestamp. Setting this to a value of 1 and rebooting will allow you to have timestamped incoming SMS instead of a datestamp.
