With all this technology, I was looking for a tool to make my laptop receive calls from my cell phone. Basically turning my laptop into a Bluetooth headset.
I want to see Caller ID pop-up, and then use my laptops built in mic / speakers.
There should be software for Vista out there that will allow a Bluetooth if not a USB connection to allow the laptop to act as the receiving device. I just cant find any software.
Does anyone know of anything?

your title should be a bit more specific in the title. someone might think your talking about cid of device(carrier-id). just a bit of info that will help u get a bit more attention.
if ur laptop has bluetooth i believe with a program and proper profile(handsfree) on the laptop you can do it.
How to forward Caller ID to laptop...like in cars
I figure there must be a program to use for Bluetooth Windows phones. I cant imagine what would be so difficult if cars can take Bluetooth phone connections, why cant laptops?
Then to take it a step further, we could use IP Phones to answer calls while at home. Cell phones would forward via Bluetooth to the PC's and then be answered via IP Phones.
I know there are already Bluetooth Cordless phones, But I dont see any options like IP phones which can serve as an extnesion to the PC / laptop cellular connection.
You can always pair your device up with your laptop and use your laptops speaker/mic to use the phone.
You can always use a VOIP Cordless Phone, plenty of them around.
Really? I also have the HTC Tilt. I was looking for a solution at home to replace my land line. I want to use the Tilt to pass calls to my PC, which will then pass calls to my VOIP phones. I didnt think there was a solution available as of yet.
What software are you using to use your PC as a mic/speaker phone for your cell?
Maybe I didn't see another thread if it does exist, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who's thought of this.
Is there any piece of software that will basically turn my Windows Mobile phone into a pbx/sip server, or else allow one to use my cell phone as the external phone connection? I think it'd be saweet to come home, connect up my phone to my wireless network, and then have sip phones around my house that connect to my PBX server that uses my cell phone for incoming/outgoing calls while its sitting nicely tucked away charging. That way, I could have multiple phones around the house that I can use to answer incoming calls to my cell phone, and to make calls out through my cell phone.
Anyone have any ideas or seen anything? Any reasons why this wouldn't work? I'm a developer(java/vb), so if there arn't many reasons why it can't be done, maybe I'll take it on and see what I can come up with.
I've seen the GE Cell Fusion stuff which is something like what I'm thinking, but I'd rather have some sort of PBX/SIP server that I can customize and configure.
There are mobile PBX systems. Maybe this is synonymous with mini PBX systems.
Hello,
I could'nt find anything usind forum search regarding this topic, so I create a new one:
I am looking for a way to estalish an WLAN connection automaticly when a program wants to access the internet instead of establishing a modem/WAP/GPRS connection.
The idea: Some Programs like Satelite Update have an option "autoupdate every day at 4 am" or the option "check for new messages every hour" in Messaging.
If marked. those programs are trying to set up a modem connection configured in Settings/connections/Connections
Of course I disabled those (together with all autoconnect options inside those programs) so no program could dial out over an expensive Phone line, because I have everywhere free access to WLAN (at home, work,...).
But it would be nice to use those autoconnect features over WLAN, e.g. every morning before I wake up, the device downloads satelite update data and all email messages by enabling wlan on demand und disabling wlan after downloding everything.
Is there any way to configure a wm6 device to enable and use WLAN instead of a modem connection? Unter Connections -> New Connection there ist no WLAN available (of course there are just modem devices including bluetooth modem option).
Is there any 3rd party Software or trick? E.g. is there some kind of virtual modem that trigers WLAN instead of connecting oder GSM Module...?
best,
Sunny
strange.. the best forum for WindowsMobile Devices and noone knows a trick or software.
Well, seems it is really not possible... what a shame that MS didn't think at this possibility - especially in this modern age where WLAN ist nearly everywhere
best,
Sunny
I currently get a really cheap contract call deal on my mobile phone calls and would like to use it for making business calls. I currently use SAGE ACT for my customer database, and with my current setup I am able to dial customers on mouse click. SAGE ACT interfaces with the windows dialer software that dials out though a modem connected to my landline and enables me to talk with a headset on the PC. My question is does anyone know how to setup an android phone with windows dialer so I can automatically dial customers from a database and use a headset? I really don’t want to have to manually dial calls from the database on the phone and physically hold the phone? If it is not possible to get this working with an Android phone, does anyone know of any other phones that may enable me to do this?

Hey there, back then i use to pair a blackberry pearl 8100 with my laptop and used it as a bluetooth modem, from there i set up Act to dial through the blackberry modem, i then paired my bluetooth headset with the phone and i was able to make calls directly from Act, i was also hoping i could do this with my hd2 and android installed but so far i haven't found a solution, i tried pdanet which is an app for android that can be used as a bluetooth modem but so far i still cant dial out in act or windows dialer, i think theres some missing drivers but so far i still havent found any drivers that will enable this to work, im hoping someone out there has a solution.
Hey there,
Is it possible to make short-range calls from a phone to another phone which is in my tethering range? This is the situation:
Some friends of mine and me have helmet-headsets for our motorcycles and we all have android smartphones (no - we are no gang ). Since are not far from each other it would be great to have the ability to create a simple network by tethering wifi and having the other party connect to my phone.
Not that we are connected, we'd have the ability to make a kind of VoIP call and stay in connection while driving.
How it could be possible:
Simplest workaround would be a VoIP Server on the "Server-Phone" and Clients on all phones (let's just talk about ONE other phone for now).
The difficulties:
The VoIP client have to reconnect automatically, if the connection was lost. Android already reconnects to a known WiFi Access Point, so this is not a problem. But the VoIP clients would have to support it.
Is there any known software solution or any motivated developer to take it into his magic hands?
What do you think about this idea? Have any better ideas?
Thank you!
UPDATE:
Ich found software and will try them in the next days. You will hear from me soon.
