[q] hd voice - HTC Pico (Explorer)

Hi, yesterday i saw that cosmote, the main carrier in greece, added HD VOICE in their networks, since this summer, so i did some research, and i havent found our pico in the support list. even older phones have support, but no sign of our pico. does anybody here know for sure if our device supports this amr-wb thingy? thanks

video calling using Polaris

Hi guys,
Is there any software which allows video calling on windows mobile?
Thank you!
You mean other than dialer included?
The dialer included only uses 3G, I think yallow means over any other network like Wi-Fi. There was one company who did that (forgot the name), but no demo or so, you know that kind of closed company which asks ridiculous prices for crappy software
I wished only Skype would port the video to mobile... BTW Live Messenger should have incorporated voice calls too, to compete against Skype (of course, I like the way it is, prefer Skype over Microsoft big time )
Yes, I mean video calling over internet, not 3G.
It is a pity, SabbeRubbish, you forgot the name of that software. I would buy it and share my experience. =)
Good news, I've searched my history and found it

I think this is what you want.
There is a trial I see now:
Voice only, no messaging, video or dual-mode support.
Includes G.711, G.722 and MS-GSM speech codecs.
Windows Mobile 2003 to 6.0

The Internet can come on 3G or Wi-Fi. If you are looking for Video chatting over LAN (in this case wirelessLAN or bluetooth), thats a different story. Please be more specific next time.
M$ and Skype won't integrate the video functionality until there's a higher 3G coverage over the countries. The datarate is just too small on GPRS for Video chatting, and M$ is still several steps behind Skype in this field
gnick666,
Do you really think it matters for the software where the Internet comes from (3G or Wifi or GPRS or whatever)? I don't think so. That's different ISO/OSI layers. Why do you ask me to be more specific if you don't have any answer?
SabbeRubbish, many many thanks. I'll check this out tomorrow.
Regards.

Video calling over internet.. Very interseting.. Can you tell me how to do it?
AT&T Wireless
I was doing my own due diligence on this subject matter and figured that there is a way to utilitze the front camera on the TC.
Have you guys checked out AT&T's video calling?
http://www.wireless.att.com/learn/messaging-internet/media-entertainment/attvideoshare.jsp
So far they list certain compatible phones, but do you think that it will work with the TC?
Seems like it works for 3G phones such as the TC...

You're welcome.
About the OSI layers, it obviously matters where internet comes from as the video calling (standard HTC) comes ONLY through 3G. So there is some kind of difference, but I think this is mainly a commercial difference: immagine how much more money operators will make if everyone starts making 3G video calls!

Not only that, there were some programs that used a Local network (not the internet) for video calling... of course the were derailed before being implemented....
I will not insist, that's just my IMHO. I think that video-software just gets an interface to send data through. The only question here is bandwidth. Theoretically it should work over any internet connection with enough bandwidth (HSDPA, WiFi, USB-PC, etc...).

I agree, truly. But obviously most software wants to handle connections themselves or so. Anyhow, my before mentioned solution DOES work on LAN, just don't know if it's affordable.
I use 3g VideoCall from Telme,it works fine on my TC except for the video right now
I use 3g VideoCall from Telme,it works fine on my TC except for the video right now (they say they will release a new version in march or april).
You can download it (from the download section) and use it for free (or with an account just like skype)after registering for free as a Free Member from here : http://web2.telme.sg/cedel/index.php?option=mod_joinus
With "Route 60" activated (as a distributor) u can even call for free to 60 countries on fixed phones (from which 6 countries on fixed AND MOBILES for free)
I call then free from mi 3gphone to fixed phones, to 3gphones and also even to computers having the correspondent software from Telme installed (Deskcall NG)
I tried fring with voipstunt and voipbuster, I could not find my Voip contactlist and was not convinced so I uninstalled it.
If someone gets a better result I would be happy to know it.
My telme nickname is 3gcedel in my Polaris and cedel in the deskcall if u want to call me. Or 1800-3501540 (Virtual SIM number if I'm not connected)
or 3g1800-3501540 (same as 3gcedel) when I'm connected in 3g

Strange. Mine always times out while connecting
Weird Problem
I've been trying to get my TC to make video calls to a Nokia 6280 and it's a no go. The weird part is that I also have a N70 and I can make a call from the Polaris to the N70 and also from the N70 to the 6280. So all my phones work but the Polaris and the 6280 don't work together. When I try I get a connection but no sound and no image. Any ideas? I already tried different roms and already switched sim cards.

[Q] BIG Android Query !

Hello everyone,
(This is about Video Calling on Android platform.)
I currently use the Nokia 5800XM, and have to change it this month itself. And the transition has to go from symbian to android.
I've come down to two phones, the Google Nexus S, or the HTC Desire Z. I really love the qwerty pad on the desire and the HTC UI.
But, I had almost narrowed it down to the Nexus, due to the front camera, Gb 2.3, the GPU, and the Amoled display, but I read somewhere(probably on wikipedia), that Android does not have a native app for video calling.
Does that mean that I cannot do any video calls to a phone number through the 3G network of the carrier ?? Coz when I searched google, I only found apps that did that over Wi-fi or 3G, but through the internet, and to an id, not on a number. For example, when I had to do it on the 5800, I just had to select the contact, click on call, and then video call. Is this possible on an Android device ?? I mean it should be !! (Probably this will make me go for the Desire)
What I'm asking basically is can we make video calls to phone numbers and not a user ID (coz if i use tango or skype or fing, the other person should also thave the same software installed) ??
Please Help !!

[Q] HD Voice (aka AMR-WB) support on Omnia 7?

Hello all. As you may be aware, the Samsung Omnia 7 handset has HD Voice capability, also known as AMR-WB (see YouTube for some more information on it). Three UK and Orange UK support this protocol, and yet I don't think it's enabled.
Can someone inform me if it is enabled, or is anyone else on Three UK with a Samsung Omnia 7 and willing to test it out?
Found this on a three blog:
It has to be a phone that originated from Three as you’re unable to update their software to Three software if it’s a generic handset. If it’s generic it’s possible that the HD Voice feature won’t be enabled.

[Q] V1277 Language english US and not UK help

Hi all,
This is my first post here so please be kind and help a complete nube.
I recently purchased a V1277 android dual sim phone from China via Amazon UK. Superb phone and very pleased. However, in setting up the phone I noticed that the language option only has English US available. Not too much of a problem you might think but it means many apps set themselves via the language set so as a result I only have access to Amazon US for instance. A further worry is that my dual sims keep telling me I'm roaming even though they are registered in the UK.
The phone is unbranded but is an Android 4.0.4 MTK6577 Dual Core 1.0GHz 512MB/4GB 4.3-inch Capacitive Screen 3G Smartphone with WiFi GPS HDMI bought from DrakoTec via Amazon UK.
Under the Settings/Language area there seems to be a restricted list of available languages available and specifically only English, which is English US. The strange thing is I can select an English UK keyboard.
Any ideas on how one might change the language to English UK via some hidden menu or are we talking of rooting only?
Many thanks in advance for you help.

Well it looks as if I have managed to solve this myself .
Discovered an interesting app called Set Locale and Language, by brucedior, in the Play store and it works. Even rebooted and it kept the change so anybody else having an issue with missing languages check out that free app.
