Does anybody have or know of a rom thats available for a 3uk HTC Kaiser that will operate the applications of 3uk? Namely email on 3, U tube and maybe MSN, but must operate email on 3 as stated earlier.
Any help would really be much appreciated as I am new to all this !!

I've got a Kaiser on 3 using the AthineOS v3.2 rom. It works fine on planet 3. The 3 MSN client isn't available for the Kaiser yet and I've never used youtube but I can confirm that I've used email on 3 in the past on custom roms. The main thing you need to do is make sure the PIE user agent is set correctly so that Planet 3 know you're using your kaiser.
You can use any kaiser-compatible rom with the phone but make sure that once you've upgraded to the rom that you change the radio to a suitable one I'm using 1.70.19.09 and it's great

Why repost http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=469490
You can set up any email provider on all ROMs
You can view YouTube all ROMs as streaming media player is included or YouTube app
You can install MSN
To use 3G video calling you will need a ROM with a 3G Dialer or install one yourself.
Hope that helps.

I think he means usuing the 3UK specific services as 3 has it's own java client for msn and has paid for access to youtube. I installed email on 3 earlier and it works fine with the AthineOS rom
Thanks Gav,
Can you explain the radio part in a little more detail or lead me to a link that tells me about it? and what does PLE in you email.
Thanks for helping a novice !!!

Soz for taking ages to get back. Didn't realize u had replied. The radio is critical for a lot of the functions in the phone. You can't be told which radio will work with your kaiser/rom/network, you have to try for yourself. Go to http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=KaiserROM_FlashingFAQ for more details.
By PIE i mean pocket internet explorer. Apparently now Planet 3 doesn't check the user agent so you don't have to worry about changing it
Hi.
Lookin for Skype app working with 3UK 3G network.
As many of u knows 3UK users have free Skype.
Standard app cant connect thru 3G
Found an Skype app for 3UK but only for android.
Anyone knows about WM version ???
Help much appreciated.
errr??? I have a skype 3.0 gold cab which I searched for on the forums and it works fine via 3G on my HD2 with O2???
It took about five mins to connect the first time, but subsequently connects within 10seconds over 3G (wifi disabled).
TBH no network wants skype 3G traffic - only way to get it over 3G is either sanctioned as 3UK do, or via jailbroken iphones. That's one reason why skype pulled WM6.5 support - because they could not guarantee to lock it down to wifi as they can on iphone.
Plz read the thread carefully, i stated 3UK not O2.
Thats the difference. Big one.
Any one else?
Edit: And im lookin for any version, not newest. Any.
I am in UK and on 3 network.
Skype V3 for WM works fine and connects perfectly over 3G. You don't need a specific 3 version...

My skype v3 after 60 sec or so, showing me a cant connect error.
Any ideas?
my point was to leave it for a long time - it appeared not to connect but eventually did regardless of network and versions.
The OP is referring to the specific skype through the 3 network app that is found on 3 issue phones.
There is nothing that allows this as 3 don't support the HD2 and so there is no model specific app.
Winmo skype does not have the facility to dial a "local" based number which is how the 3 network accesses the skype service for free through its own dedicated servers.
It may be possible to extract a 3 version app from another winmo model that 3 do support, but, then would it install on the HD2?
BTW Skype connects through any 3G network or WiFi by default.

The included app is specifically written for the android OS so very little chance.
Is there a way to get wifi calling working in these custom roms. None of the non US sbfs or custom roms I've tried has this feature. Is there an apk or something to flash at this point in time?
I've been trying to figure this out using the us group and messing with the build.prop but I haven't had any success. I know for T-Mobile US users it would be great to get this figured out.
dunno if this helps or not, but take a look here and here.

What do you mean by calling? Skype works, Google Talk with audio works too. And I use a sip client called CSipsimple to call landlines and to make free direct ip calls. Don't see how this is different with stock roms because all these functions are from 3rd party software. I haven't tried Gingerbread's native sip client.

Not SIP calling. T-Mobile US has a feature called UMA or Wifi Calling. It basically is a SIP client that routes calls/SMS over the wifi radio instead of the Cellular Radio. It's not exactly Google Voice/Talk or the builtin 2.3 SIP client.
http://gigaom.com/2010/10/06/uma-t-mobile-android/
The Defy has it in stock form, but many roms don't include this, as they're made for non-US phones. JBoogie's has it I believe.
So most (all?) Android phones all you to enter in SIP credentials from settings>call>Internet call settings. I have a few SIP accounts that I have entered, but it only seems to initialize when I am on wifi. Given that I regularly have 4G service I would like to be able to receive incoming calls on these accounts. Is there any way to disable to wifi requirement? I find it strange that this is still enabled given that I am running a non stock ROM!

BesT THING TO DO IS DELETE YOUR setting and download csimple or the link underneath here and with this software you can use your 4g or 3g service for internet calling.beside i had the same problem it wouldn't let me make call through hsdpa or 3.5g. so after downloading everytrhing is working perfectly.
link
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.csipsimple&hl=en
In all stock and custom ROMs that I have tried Internet Calling is available on WIFI only.
You would therefore need a third party app such as cSipsimple, Sipdroid, Bria or Acrobits.
You also need to check if you provider allows SIP calls. I am on Vodafone UK and they allow it only to customers with 900 minutes(or more) monthly plan, others are blocked.
Shery4life: giffgaff is a virtual provider, which network do they use?

I was considering using CSimple, however it is my understanding that it must be used with a 3rd party hosted pbx (or your own pbx of course). Can it be used standalone on the phone?

Well, if the following instructions are followed you can enable it regardless of whether your carrier allows it. However, I dont feel comfortable making the changes suggested in the link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1354838
All the apps in my post are standalone and do not require any hosted PBX. You will need username, password and SIP server info from your SIP provider.
The link you have provided will enable the internal SIP client of Android to work over 3G/H, which is what you have asked in the openning post.
It will not enable SIP if your mobile provider blocks it

So I decided to try out Csipsimple and it seems to do the trick. However, I would prefer to use the native app if possible do to more efficient battery use (allegedly). If anyone can create a flashable zip from my original link that would be great.
The ROM that I am using has been prepared by someone who does not post it on XDA.
It's called SENSITY and it's based on the European stock ROM 1.xx.401.x.
This Chef has actually created a flashable ZIP file for this purpose. Link:
http://www.multiupload.com/OEQMIVKJYW.
He has tested it only on his own ROM, but THINKS it will work on any rom based on the above.
If you want to test it, make a NAND backup first and give it a try.

Thanks bud! Just so I am clear, is that zip supposed to enable SIP calling while on the carriers network (using my current ROM) or is it a whole new ROM with that function enabled?
It is JUST to enable Internet (SIP) Calls from your native application.
The guy just used the instructions in the link that you had provided and produced a ZIP file that would lift the WiFi only restriction.IT IS NOT A NEW ROM. You would retain your cuurent ROM. Once you have flashed it, let us know if it worked.

Thanks, I will test it out shortly and get back to you.
I flashed the ZIP file from my post above and it worked. It removed the Wifi only from the native SIP Client (Settings>Call>Use Internet Calling).
However, I did not find this application to be user friendly.
1. There is no indication whether the account has successfully registered with the SIP provider.
2. When using multiple providers, you would need to go back to settings each time you want to change the account to be used.
Third party applications do show state of account registration and let you choose the account to be used from the dialler screen.
For now, I will stick with Acrobits and CsipSimple.

Thank you for reporting back on this, I still have not had the opportunity to flash it myself. However, I did want to point out that the native Android app does support the functions you just mentioned. You can check the status of each SIP connection by going to settings>call>Internet call settings. Once there, select "use internet calling" and change it to "ask for each call". Also be sure that you have "receive incoming calls" checked if you want to do more than just place calls. In either case thanks for the link, I will try both methods and see if one has a significant advantage.

The problem is that the FM section doesn't have a transmitter.
It might be possible to do something with either Bluetooth or peer-peer WiFi.

Hi Supremazy? I am interesting in the same too, did you find the solution?
I have posted this question on quora and got one good answer, but it's not full. If you interesting, you can search it on quora with the phrase "What a good ways to add FM radio support to Android or iOS device without Internet connection?"
Please, share what new information you have found so far.
Thanks yuriy,
I just looked at the link.But it's not exactly what i want.I want make this thing with new software but existing hardware.
I searched the play store i found two app (PTTDroid and Android Intercom) but they are really hard to setup and requires a wifi router.I love routers don't misunderstand.Actually it's good to use router for increasing range.
Other apps requires registration and transmitting sound from internet.
Walkie Talkie - Wifi & Bluetooth By Porchlight iPhone app is what i want.Just launch the app in two iphones/ipads(or more) and talk.

I do not understand why you suppose it is possible to run FM radio on iPhone without Internet WITH NO USE EXTERNAL OR ADDITIONAL HARDWARE? At least you need FM transmitter like iTrip. Other wise, how you are going to connect to FM radio wave?
I don't want to always carry a hardware in my pocket.Because of this i don't like additional fm transmitter idea.

That's the best option you have: Griffin iFM Radio Receiver for iPhone and iPod
Alternatively, it is possible to modefy hardware wich is quite costly, either connect to the FM radio device via bluetuth. Both not attractive as for me.
What you want is not possible technicaly.
I think I found the app what i want. It's name is WiFi Talkie Lite made by remaller. You can find on the store. Program's best feature is you don't need to a wifi router, you turn your phone to wifi ap with tethering. I didn't try the app so I didn't any information about usage.

What's the best app to use to accomplish walkie talkie in a place where there is no Internet access? Don't mind buying a hardware extension like a Griffin fm transmitter.

It is possible to use your Android phone as a walkie talkie over Bluetooth and also via wifi using ad hoc connection.
The following are the apps which make it possible.

Yep i dont think the android fm can emit , its just a reciever...
Thank me if i helped .. ?
A good way
I have an idea but have a problem, it just works in the city and need some money.
You can buy a wifi router and a make a big antenna ,then connect the antenna to the router.
then download a walkie talkie app for your devices and connect them to the wifi router and use the app.
Note : You shouldn't connect router to internet (with phone cable , Dsl cable or other). we just need it's access point.
