Connecting Notifier for Windows mobile phones - Windows Mobile Apps and Games

CareAce.net have recently developed a notifier for Windows mobile phones that vibrates for a short period after an outgoing call has gone through.
So basically, it vibrates when someone picks up your call (even if its through to voicemail). It does not vibrate on connection to the network, that's a different feature.
Please check out more about it here: http://www.careace.net/2009/07/23/careace-exclusive-connecting-notifier/
Love to hear your opinion/suggestions!

Well... this does already exist in any HTC ROM I know... Do you mean that it doesn't exist on samsung devices ?

Yes and yes. this feature was omitted from some of the Samsung smartphones/pocket pcs. So we do see this as a sort of patch as well.

Can someone please upp the app here? Don't wanna to register there...

I thought this app does something different than the option on HTC roms... from what i understand, the one we currently have just vibrates on connection to the network. This app, however, vibrates when the person actually picks up the phone, not connection to the network. Please let me know if I'm mistaken and there actually is an option already to vibrate on pickup. Thanks

This app vibrates when someone picks up the phone. It does not vibrate on network connection. I haven't tried the feature on a native (unmod) HTC roms, but from the sound of it (as you described), they are not the same function.

Yeah, I think people are confusing the two functions. BUT, please let me know if I'm mistaken and this feature already exists on phones like the HTC Touch Pro and Diamond. If it's not on these phones, i consider it a great find.

can someone pls upload the file over for touch pro. i guess this should work with the default dailer skin. thanks.

even my dumb nokia phone have this feature

And every HTC, too... I don't understand people here... The touch pro already has this feature.
Just go to Start > Settings > Phone > Advanced > Vibrate on connect (or something like that... my ROM is french, so I don't know the exact name for the option).

Maybe you should know what you're talking about before you start questioning people and start calling them dumb (person above you)...
The feature already on our devices is to vibrate on connection to network... meaning when our call actually starts going out. Then it rings.
This app is different. Your phone rings... the it vibrates when the person you're calling actually picks up.

Yeap. Reiterating: I don't have a HTC that I'd tested this on. I've only tested it on SAMSUNG Windows Mobile devices which includes the Omnia, Epix, Blackjack, Jack and Propel Pro.
The feature: When your call goes THROUGH = ring, ring, ring... Hello. Then it vibrates.
The good thing about this as compared to vibrating when calling out is that you don't have to keep an ear (or an eye) on the phone to see if the call has gone through. And as our article has (hopefully) humorously underlined, it provides benefits like: health, safety, etiquette and finance.
Would love to have you try it (http://bit.ly/IpDsl) and share any input/bug report.
Thanks!

Slide 2 Unlock 2 will also do this, but I found that when I used it, various people would complain about a noise when I answer the phone or they answer the phone.
I called myself from home phone/to home phone, and both directions I can hear "WHIRRR" where the vibration is being picked up by the microphone.
Just my experience ;-)

@khaytsus. Yeap, that is a known issue when it comes to Samsung Omnia as well. This is actually device-based, depending on the location of the vibration motor.
For the rest of the Samsung device that we've tested, the motor is near the mic, whereas for the Omnia, it is closer to the top, hence creating a vibration sound when connected.
And yes, S2U2 amongst some other freeware/shareware has similar function alongside the 'main package' that they deliver, whereas this is sort of like a patch, giving the Samsung (and other applicable devices) what other device like HTC, may already have.

First, you shall not tell me what I'm allowed to say or not Thank you very much.
Then, don't blame me because someone else said the word "dumb", i'm not responsible for that.
And finally, my HTC Touch Diamond only vibrates when the person picks up, answers and talks to me. AFTER RINGING. I don't see the point in vibrating just when the call is going out... I use this vibration to put the phone to my ear only if someone (or voice mail) has picked up...
So please stay calm, we're just discussing features here, not calling people names.

mute button pressing by accident

Hi all
I have got a new sony x10 mini pro, and have an odd issue that seems a design floor.
When on a call my ear constantly presses the mute button and mutes people.
any one know of a way to remove the mute button on the interface or another app that can be used for in call functions.
any advice would be much apreiciated.
thank you

Place rthe phone closer to the ear so that the proximity sensor disables rthe screen

i have d same issue n keep muting calls
I have posted the same issue here
I use hands free but it is still easy to press with the side of your hand if you are holding the phone...
I notice on my phone the touch still works outside the screen border. and it sometimes goes on speaker or mute

Really need a fix for this. Mostly the mute button is the problem, but i have had the loudspeaker activated a few times too.

This is really annoying.

I really nead a solution for this.
I was also annoyed with this, so I made an app that launches it self after accepting the call to avoid the issue. The app can be found at my site on paxanima DOT net (can't post URLs yet, apparently)
I just made it, so not too much real life testing, but seems to do the trick.

Good work on that, thats a start.
But can someone just remove the goddamn mute button? UHHH!
It's too complicated for me. I think i installed like 4-5 apps but still couldnt get to the point where you can get the apk from the phone.
True, this is very annoying. SE has received plenty of complaints so I hope they're working on a solution. I am wondering if installing any of the new custom roms would sort out the issue for me since waiting for SE updates is a nightmare.
My problems started when I first updated to 2.1 where it happened in more than half of calls and got better with the last update and now happens only occasionally.
i never had that problem but i think that costum rom will help for these prob.
sory for bad english
Yeah, you have to be careful. Hold your phone from the back to avoid touching the front sides and slowly approach it to your head (the proximity sensor is at the top left of the phone). I'm pretty sure I look like a retard while doing so but hey, better than having the person on the other end saying "hello? is there anybody here? hello?".
Same here
This issue has also been annoying me from the beginning, and on every release of the SE standard ROMS. I don't understand why some people have the issue and others don't. Maybe it has something to do with the shape of one's ears??
No seriously, when i do some tests, like calling to my voicemail and then holding the phone in my hand, on some occasions the phone goes black after covering the proximity sensor with my finger, and sometimes the phone does not react at all when covering the sensor. So maybe some processes that are running prevent the proximity sensor from working correctly.
Would it be possible to adjust the semcphone.apk to have no mute button at all? I never use this option anyway.
Or is it only possible to change the shape and color of the icons/images.
As far as I know. When ever you made a call or answering call, the screen will turn off, right after you place the phone on your ear... So there's should be no pproblem answering or making call and suddenly pressed the mute button with own ear. Im using the same phone, and making almost 20 to 30 calls a day. And never even once encounter the problem as stated.

I get this problem once in awhile too. I have to bring the phone to my ear slowly.
can't we just replace the dailer APK with something from HTC or something?
I also hate the current contact list, theres no smart search.
Yes you can. But it has to be ported with some mod for it to work.

[Q] Ringer not ringing sometimes

I searched the forum but could not find this. Please bear with me!
While I get incoming calls in my X10i, the phone sometimes rings and sometimes doesn't. This results in lot of missed calls. Very weirdly, if the phone rings in the first call, in the next call, it might not, or vice versa. This happens without any specific trend. Any help, please?
Secondly, can anyone please tell how to check the proximity sensor? I somehow feel mine is not working, as previously, the phone would light up on taking out of cover. Now it doesn't.
Any help any one?

Then can it be that some downloaded app is creating this problem? I dont have any volume controller app, but can some downloaded games or other app doing this to the phone?
So the ringer problem is not mine alone. Can a software update fix this?
are you using a task killer???? it seems to be the root of most evils... suggest switching any autokilling off if you are.

Flightmode on / phone off but bluetooth on

Just have the S2 from my old faithful HTC HD2 - with the HTC I use to use it in the gym with my bluetooth headset listening to music but with the phone turned off so I would not be disturbed..........
And from what I can see that is no longer possible with the S2 - surely there must be a way to turn the phone off and still use bluetooth without having to hack the root etc
I know I can use WiFI while in flight mode and GPS but that does not help whilst out running / in the gym - that's basically my time and I do not want to be disturbed, or disturb others hence wanting to simply turn the phone off that's all

By "phone off" you don't actually mean powering the device off, do you? Because that would be neat trick, listening to your music while the device was completely powered off.
You could turn Auto reject mode on to turn away all calls. (settings > call > call rejection)
EDIT: and what's wrong with flight mode? I'm not clear on why this wouldn't work for you. Or is it that you still want mobile data, but no phone calls?
EDIT 2: Herp derp, I see, it IS because you want mobile data, right? Since if you're out running, you don't have wifi available. So yeah, Auto reject mode should work for you.

He wants to use his phone like an mp3 player with bluetooth headsets. He wants to "turn off" phone functions and use only the phone like a music player.
AFAIK in "flight mode" is not possible to use bluetooth.

D'oh... missed one little detail.
Right, it's not possible. Bluetooth won't turn on in flight mode. Sorry.
Auto reject mode should still work for the OP's purposes though.
AloneOnTheDark is spot on - really just a simple request one would have thought......
He wants to use his phone like an mp3 player with bluetooth headsets. He wants to "turn off" phone functions and use only the phone like a music player.
Only issue using the Auto Reject mode is that the caller calling me does not get put through to my voice mail and all the caller hears is that the call is unauthorised..... so not really that sensible as it might be a client trying to get hold of me, and at least a voice mail etc they can handle.............
Still can't believe this is such a major issue and that there are no apps / wdigets to do this, though did come across one potential one where you might be able to turn the phone off, but there was a caveat that it might not work and that you would have to do a factory reset etc

Then you can change your forwarding. settings > call > call forwarding > voice call. Activate "always forward", and put in your voice mail number for your carrier. It should be the same number as the three other forwarding options below it. Same menu options to disable it when you want to turn it off.

Call forwarding is built into the OS, so probably no one saw the need to build an app for it... Just guessing though.
ctomgee thanks that's the way to go - bit of a faff to do but worth it for some peace & quiet away from the phone, and I know I could have ignored the call, but can never bring myself to do that
Just found a little app that does it..........

No prob.
FYI, you can create a shortcut directly to the call fowarding settings menu too. Just download "Any Cut" from the market. Or if you're using Launcher Pro as your homescreen launcher, you can do this with a long press on the homescreen. It's a bit of a pain to find stuff you want to shortcut to, but you only have to do it once this way.

ICS ROM with Voice Command?

Do any of the ICS ROMs available on XDA have Voice Command that will work with a BT headset?
Or has anyone found an app that enables you to voice dial from a BT headset? I've scoured the forums and haven't found a solution that works for my AT&T Galaxy S2.
I'm running Serendipity and it doesn't have it. I've also tried Vlingo and Cyberon without success. Shocking that Google wouldn't carry voice command over from GB!!
I just found a vlingo apk that is really the Samsung Voice Command from GB ported to ICS. It works well.
I've attached it for those interested.
I think that was something samsung messed up, not sure though

Follow up for Voice Command
I have been testing the Voice Command apk I attached in my previous post and it works well except for one fairly big problem. Voice Command doesn't work when my phone's screen is off. As soon as I turn on the screen by pressing the Power button (but with the lockscreen still on), VC works fine.
Any ideas?

Unfortunately I don't have any ideas...I'm in the same boat. I'm using the samsung VC app (pulled from sammy ICS - I posted it up for someone, somewhere a while ago) on Task/Ktoons AOKP. It works perfectly fine launching from the BT headset button if the screen is on, but it won't wake the screen - I haven't been able to get it to work on any custom ROM actually...
Hmmm...now that you brought this up, I wonder if it's possible to integrate this into a tasker profile to make the BT headset button wake the screen, then launch VC?
Thanks for getting me thinking...guess I have an idea after all...

Which BT headset are you using (I just bought the Blueant Q2)? I was hoping that it wasn't just my headset, so I wouldn't have to return it.

Well, digging around in tasker, it appears it does not have a Bluetooth button trigger. Or if it does, I'm looking in the wrong place for it. I haven't actually tried, but it appears to be possible to force the phone either to screen off awake state, or full screen on awake upon bt connection. This would at least automate the process upon initial Bluetooth connection followed by an immediate call. Doesn't fix the problem of a user wanting to initiate a call on a stable idle connection though... gonna keep digging a little more.
I'm using an LG headset I got for 6 bucks from newegg 2 years ago. More reliable and better battery life by far than the 2 previous 70 dollar motorolas...

Android 10 update broke calling

Got the update last night. Tried to check voicemail morning and was greeted with Alvin & The Chipmunks blabbing at me. It's like the speed of the call is x20 speed or something. It's completely unusable. Phone sluggish as hell, too.
Anyone know what's going on with the voice speed? I've never heard of anything like this.
I'm supposed to get a callback for a job interview I had yesterday. Pretty crappy timing. How is Google going to push an update that breaks calls like this? Absurd.
its nokia that pushed the update they did not make the rom right
Same here I told nokia about it and they told me to wait for a bug fix. I told them I wanted to downgrade since your firmware bug broke my phone.
Just wait for a bug fix? So use a Phone that cant make calls right?
So payed a guy to unlock my boot loader to try to flash a rom so i can just make the phone usable.
I spend about 6 hours try to get the rom to work. With little to no luck I was able to get into twrp a few times.
So ya Im in the same boat. I just got this phone back 3 weeks ago from a rma due to a bad chargeing port. Now Im forced to pay some one to unlock the boot loader and try to get a custom rom Just to be able to call
If I cant get the rom working Im going to have to go spend like $200 on a new phone today just sucks

Same thing happened to me with the sped up chipmunk-y sound. It happened during the dial and after someone picks up. Though it didn't seem to happen every time. Also, I didn't notice it on any incoming calls, just outgoing.
I tried a few things to fix it--rebooting, clearing some app caches, etc. Nothing seemed to work.
My next step was to try a factory reset, but then all of a sudden the issue disappeared. No new update was released/installed, so I just assumed the issue had been on my provider's end (T-Mobile), and they fixed whatever the problem was.
As for sluggishness of the phone after the update: I agree. It seems a little sluggish to me too. Not anything that is making the phone unusable. But it is noticeably more sluggish than when 9.0 was installed.
Have you guys modified the phone in any way like unlocking the bootloader or rooting?

I haven't. Just using whatever over the air OS Nokia pushes to the phone.
yes I did pay to unlock the boot loader I used linage from the rom section
it has all the bugs of the stock rom. Cant call out or with out the loud noise bug and no voip apps work
I did get the Android 9 based rom to work. it has a few bugs but its usable.
I more or less gave up im looking at a iphone now.
I spend 20 hours or more trying to get this phone to work
first the usb port goes out and I cant charge.
2 weeks after having the phone back I got a magnetic cable so the usb port would not brake any more cable. That was like $20
After 2 weeks android 10 more or less bricks the phone (a phone that cant make calls)
Then I have to spend like $15 to pay the poor guy to unlock my boot-loader (he did a great job)
I spend a lot more time loading the linage android 10 rom for it to have the same bugs ( in no way is it the devs fault im sure he did not know).
... can unlock your bootloader for a small fee.
I would say all android 10 based rom will have those kind of problems. I can only confirm it on the android 10 linage one
When I flash twrp most of the time the twrp would just freeze if booting form the phone.
I had no problem loading it with fastboot works evey time. So I would only use it install the rom and just boot it when you need it. I would not suggesting flashing it to recovery as it only worked some of the time for me.
Hope all that info helps

How to fix the phone call problems
To everyone having calling issues (distortion / squealing, or other people can't hear them), try this: Turn off Voice over LTE. You go to Settings -> Wireless and Networks -> Mobile Networks -> VoLTE, and turn that setting off. This fixed the problem for all 3 Nokia 7.1 phones in our family, when nothing else seemed to work.
Turning off VoLTE and wifi calling works, but VoLTE is important in my area with TMobile. Without it, too many dropped and missed calls. I actually downgraded from an Xperia XZ1 just to get VoLTE, now this happens.
I have TA-1085 running Android 10 that was pushed OTA on 12/25, while I do not have calling issues (from native call app) initially, calling from all 3rd party app (e.g. Messenger or Wechat) are not working: I can hear other side, while the other side can not hear me.
In addition to disabling VoLTE, I also changed the 'preferred network type' (see posting from author 'fiumaxx' on nokia's user forum, search there using android-10-after-update-on-nokia-7-1 as search string). I changed it to LTE/CDMA which works well for me.
Normal call sound is back to normal but 3rd party calling still not working.

This worked for me:
Go to Settings/Apps and Notifications and then tap on where it says See All xx Apps. Scroll down until you see the Google app and tap on that. On the next screen you see, tap on Permissions and then tap on Microphone. A small window will pop up, and you must change the setting from Allow to Deny.
After changing this setting, Google Assistant won't work (no Hey Google), but the fix is persistent after reboots. This makes me think the real problem may be with the Google app. We'll see.

Thank you so much for sharing! Works like a charm
Unfortunately denying microphone for the Google app did not work for me. I also noticed no one can hear me when making videos calls (Hangouts, Duo, Facebook messenger).
I then decided to factory reset, but did not help. Both VoLTE and video calling still not working.
Anyone else with video calling mic issues?

I had the same symptom on normal phone call (other side could not hear me). In my case, it was the Google Assistant not releasing the microphone, and here what worked: open the system settings, go to Google (service&preferences)/Account services/Search, Assistant&Voice/Voice/Voice Match. Them make sure Access With Voice Match is ticked off.
Or try opening settings, searching at the top for "Voice" and open "Voice Match", and tick off "Access with Voice Match".

Confirm this recipe works for my TA-1085. Thanks much.
I solved my random voice problems (others can't hear me on Duo video call, duplex voice on the other side etc.) with the voice match assistant workaround until hopefully gets fixed in a next update. Don't know for sure if the thing is only on Nokia's side or Google app's as well on Android 10, since disabling Hey Google solves all issues
Will have to try/catch on future google app updates as well to find out

Under "Voice Match" I don't see any "Access With Voice Match" setting. What I do see is "Hey Google," which says "Access your Assistant any time you say "Hey Google" when your screen is on." Perhaps this is what your mean?
I tried this solution and it works, too. I think it also has the advantage of not completely shutting down Assistant's access to the microphone. Just waking up Assistant by voice. Much less of a price. Thanks!
Has anyone heard anything about a real fix for this issue? I've gotten two Android updates since the upgrade to Android 10, but this issue has not been fixed yet.
After extensive talks and inside info on Nokia's community forums, seems like a Maintenance update (MR) is on the way for May, which they say fixes -among others- both voice bugs. That is, the echo on calls plus sound distortion in some games (e..g Monument Valley 2 for me)
Cross your fingers everyone for a quick release and confirmation of the fixes!
Today was the day at last....! MR update showed up rolling out globally and echo during calls plus crackling sounds in games are finally gone
Better late than never NOKIA

Yes, they seem to have fixed the voice call problems with Whatapp, Wechat, Hangouts and etc since the Android 10 update.
