Can someone assist me in seeing if this phone has built in support for Work Profiles (required for Android for Work using Google's MDM)? Google has an app that will tell you if the phone supports Work Profiles. Trying to find a device that is dual sim, with LTE ability with either sim (obviously only one at a time), that also has support for Android for Work. The Zenfone 2 supports it, but only has LTE ability on one sim. The Zenfone 2 Laser has LTE on both sims, but doesn't support Work Profiles. I've discovered the P8 Lite does support it via the Marshmallow beta, but I'd rather get this device.
Google's app in the Play Store to use to test is: Test DPC. You would only need to proceed through the setup to where you either get a message saying the phone doesn't support work profiles, or stop at the place where the next step is "Encrypt." If you get to the latter place, the phone supports Work Profiles -- at this point you can just cancel out and no setup or changes will take place.

Thanks so much for checking that on your phones. One more question -- if you have experience using dual sim on this phone, what is the behavior of when an MMS is send to the sim that is not set for LTE? Is it the normal behavior of getting an sms notification with download button (then pressing download, which makes to phone switch to the other sim)? If it works something like this, that will be all the info I need to make the decision to buy the Honor 5x
Again, appreciate you using your time to assist me.

Honor 5X supports dual standby, so you can receive calls and texts on both numbers.
The Dual SIM Management settings let you pick the primary card for 4G/3G, default mobile data, default calls/messages for 3rd party apps, and call forwarding settings.
Thanks. I've not used a Dual Standby devices before (or DSDA device for that matter). If an MMS (something that requires data) comes in on the line that I don't have data enabled for, does a notification still come through to let me know a MMS is waiting"? My understanding is that this is how it works on a DSDA device (Zenfone 2 Laser, for example), but want to make sure DSDS works similarly (apart from not being able to take calls on both sims at the same time).

I have been trying to set up a VoIP client on my Windows Mobile phone for a long time, starting with the HTC Wizard which I could never get to work.
I have finally managed to get a VoIP client with a really nice interface working on several phones that I have tried it on.
I am using ViaTalk as my provider but it should work with any VoIP provider.
It works great (with a slight delay, nothing that I can't live with) on an unlocked HTC Sprint Touch Pro 2, a T-Mobile HD2, a HTC Diamond and an HTC Fuze.
The application is by NCH software out of Australia and it is free to use, or if you want to unlock all of the features of the application, download and register the business edition.
Here is the URL for the download:
http://www.nch.com.au/talk/pocket.html
Or if you would like, PM me and I will be happy to send it to you as an attachment to an email.
Only known issue is when the phone goes in to power saver mode it drops the WiFi connection but that should be an easy fix, right now I am simply pressing the power button and it comes right back and the connection is still alive.
wow men! you are amazing! you search better than me xD you have a paid version? or free version?

I am using the paid version but the only difference is that it unlocks some additional features that most people proably don't need anyway.
It is not trialware so it has no expiration.
thx you man, i'm trying this app since yesterday; works good!! easy to configurate, i'm using the free version because; i don't have 2 line, i don't use conferente mode... but it will be interesting trying these features xD
How does this app compare to AgePhone?
Hello,
why not to give a try to PortGo !
http://www.portsip.com/softphone.htm
The free version is sufficient and very simple to use, even with several providers (I currently use 2). Skin and language are easy to adapt if necessary (I've made it for French), see also here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=508715

I really couldn't tell because I have never tried AgePhone.
I have tried most of the different VoIP clients mentioned throughout this site but I have never been able to get one to work right until I tried this one.
It could be that I am too stupid to configure them right or it could also be that they simply don't work very well, I can't say.
As for PortSIP, I never got it to work right and the developer dropped off line a while back as far as I can remember.
This little VoIP client that I am using has got a clean interphase, it is easy to configure, it does not require any special "helper" apps. so I am happy with it.
Hope that some of you enjoy it too.
I sincerely don't know the use of that softphone over the built-in VoIP for WinMo (WM65VoIP.cab, ultimate.VOIP.WM6.5.cab - available in several threads here) - except you need 2 lines? Especially as these guys do not use the WinMo address book! I don't want to manually add 600 adresses to any additional phone book.
The above mentioned cabs integrate into WinMo and use WiFi or 3G-connections. The phone rings as ususal and displays who called (from WinMo address book). The call is even entered into WinMo callog (only disadvantage: You don't see if a call was made/received via GSm or VoIP). I use them on my TP2 (WinMo 6.1), HD2 (WinMo 6.5.5) and even had a cab file for HTC Artemis (WinMo 5). All works/worked pretty well
So what's the use of these softphones?
Cheers, Franky

I have mine set so that the light always stays on until I turn it off(I turn off auto back-light, my preference). So, no issues there. Additionally, I think there is a setting or app that will allow WiFi to run even while the phone sleeps. Or perhaps it is set into a low-power mode until the power key is pressed?
Howto in France ?
It seems great but how could I make it work in France.
My provider (mobile or at home) is SFR.
Thanks in advance to all for your answers.

Hi,
I suggest to please change the title to "Express Talk for WM".
I already tested it on my Ultimate 8502. I can call but can not receive incoming call. It ring but after receiving, it stop ringing with no active call and no sound. Any solution?
thanks

After installing Pocket Talk and configuring it I get the message that my handheld device is blocking UDP port no 8000 and 5060. Of course it isn't but I can't make callas. Has anyone had the same problem?
installation unsuccessful
It fails to install for me...
I connect my HTC Mega (Windows Mobile 6.5, moded rom), I start the setup, my phones screen shows the installer but than says "Installation of NCH Swift Sound Pocket Talk.CAB was unsuccessful"
Doesnt matter if I choose MainMemory of StorageCard.. there is plenty of free space on both of them.
Any Ideas? Are there any prerequisites? I checked the NCH forum but couldnt find any help...
PS: trying to install directly from the .cab it leaves on my storage card wont work either
Hi sorry for my bad english, setup doesn't work on my hd2 why???

Myself some hours ago said:
I'm also using WMVoIP and my phone is enabled by default to use VoIP when wi-fi gets enough data traffic, so I don't need other VoIP apps except for second lined. Usually I switched off the phone radio and whitched on the wifi radio and VoIP wasd enabled as default phone line.
But my problem is now I can use VoIP over 3G at no penalization from my phone provider, and I can't set my phone to use VoIP by default.
Is there a way to set VoIP the first option and phone the second one, using 3G (not wifi) ?

Hey Guys,
Im wondering what would be better for me, Im based in the UK and I want to know if Using a VoIP Service such as Skype or get a Dedicated Phone line put into my address? what do you guys think?
- David Scheme
I just received this tablet with 3g stick - i would use it also for voice call not in internet but through the sim because i had a full phone plan with voice and internet -
i know that other tablet like sam.... with a software patch had enabled voice function -
we have to wait for a software upgrade or there is an hardware problem ?
in this case there is another usb modem with this function ?
thanks for your attention

Hi There,
As far as I know the Archos 3G Stick is lacking voice capability at an hardware level so that is a no go, It theoretically possible using a Patched Huawei Dongle, I got it to successfully connect a silent call when I was playing around with it, It could be just a case of wiring up the audio policies in Android or something vastly more complex, I didn't bother investigating further. You also need to patch your framework-res.apk to make the rom voice_capable, you can also make it sms_capable as well, this allows you to use the stock mms app for sending and receiving messages
You might want to do a search before posting, because this question has been asked before and there's a couple of development threads regarding it, One is linked from my signature.
Thanks

Correct. Sim cards do not have the phone radio in them. Its the device itself. Therefore, other than using voip phone apps there is no way to make voice call on the tablets, besides my galaxy note.

I want to write this here so it's all in one place and not scattered around different threads. Apologies for the bad formatting in some parts as this is on of my first contribution. Most of this is copied from this thread: I am adding onto this based on my experience and a twitter thread that I can't seem to find anymore. All you need is a Windows computer, ADB, and a super shady program (I've tested it and there don't seem to be any viruses in it). Let's get started.
DISCLAIMER: Use this at your own discretion. So far, when it works, it doesn't wipe any personal data and nearly no issues are caused. Still, I am not responsible for bricked devices, broken warranties or lost data.
If you haven't already, enable Developer Options and USB Debugging.
Next, download the Oppo_Free_Unlock_v1.0.zip file from the attachments and extract it somewhere.
Before you run anything, though, there's a little preparation that needs to be done.
Open Device Manager and expand the Network Adapters category.
Find your Ethernet adapter and double click it to open its properties.
Go to the Advanced tab and find the Network Address option in the Property pane.
Under the Value pane, select the radio button next to the text box and paste in the following: 704D7B61ABCD.
If you don't have an Ethernet adapter, try to find another network adapter here that has the Network Address property. It may help to install VirtualBox, since it will add fake Ethernet adapters.
Close the properties window and close Device Manager.
Go to where you extracted the unlock tools. Open Sec5.exe.
Make sure your device is in MTP mode, and then press the Unlock button.
After about a second, a string of numbers and letters should show up in the left pane. A few seconds later, "OK" should start flashing in the right pane. If it says "device not found" or something similar, make sure MTP Mode is activated. Press "Stop unlocking" and close the window.
Open the phone app on your device and dial *#3954391#. Then dial *#391#. A screen should come up with a whole bunch of regions listed. Choose this one: "Singapore Ex". Note: This Version has Theme Store, but no Ringtone Maker. Feel free to try other versions. EDIT: DO NOT CHANGE TO A REGION WITH CARRIER, ESPECIALLY THAILAND AS YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO CHANGE BACK! AT LEAST WHILE ON ANDROID 10. STICK WITH THOSE THAT END IN EX. Once you have done this, it appears that you can always bring up the region menu when dialing the numbers..
Your phone should now reboot. Once it's rebooted, your region will have changed.
Every time you changed region and want to change it again you need to use the software. You can get a code that you can use every time to change the region instead of using this software every time. (Update- one person report that this code(token) wont work for every time as his STAMP code changed.)
For this you need to: Open the dialer app , dial *#9434# ,press authtokendecrypt. You will see a IMEI and STAMP. Open the Sec5.exe and write the IMEI and STAMP shown on your phone in the blank space of the IMEI and STAMP in the software and press Generate a token, you will see a string of numbers and letters, write it on the token blank text box and click authtokendecrypt. Now you will see every text written in green. Now you can follow the steps in the guide but skip the steps that have to do with sec5. The Token that the software gave you is the same code that you need to enter in the *#9434# every time you want to change region so you do not need to use the software ever again.
UPDATE: Currently, it doesn't seem to work anymore for some people. Try installing Loopback network driver ( How to install Loopback) and uninstalling or disabling all other network drivers. If you are afraid of doing this with your own device you can use a Virtual Machine, too. I tried it this way.. Rest of the process is the same, just change the network address in Device Manager the same way as before.
Now that you are on the Pakistan Version, you can also run the device in dual sim mode, which was disabled in EU Mode. Some users have ordered Dual-Sim-trays on AliExpress and are now able to use it in this way. Also this might open up the path to unlock the bootloader, since that is limited to chinese devices only. I have not tried this out yet, though.
In theory, changing your region like this should work on any OPPO device running at least Android Pie (9). It may even work on earlier versions.
NOTE: This will not work for Chinese variants. These codes are filtered and will only work for international variants.
This really has worked so well at removing the carrier's brand and installing Android 11, also with changing region you get access to the theme store and other oppo services and apps, had to install Pakistan A.45 and set to Singapore ex to get Android 11

Thanks for the guide. Im not sure if I want to go through this just to avoid waiting a few weeks, although I guess dual sim option may not be available in the EU version of the Android 11 update?
Btw, any chance to get a link to buy the dual tray? Or is it a secret? Maybe by MP instead? Thanks in advance
Well done on putting a guide together. The other thread was getting quite messy
Just some additional info.....
It's not the Pakistan ROM that enables dual SIM, it's changing the region to Singapore EX. I believe dual SIM variants are only sold in Singapore, Thailand and Malaysia.
DO NOT CHANGE TO A REGION WITH CARRIER, ESPECIALLY THAILAND AS YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO CHANGE BACK! AT LEAST WHILE ON ANDROID 10. I DID THIS AND WAS STUCK IN THAILAND REGION UNTIL I GOT THE COLOROS11 UPDATE. STICK WITH THOSE THAT END IN EX.
Also, while it does enable dual SIM and appears to work perfectly on the phone I'm using right now, you should be aware that there is still only 1 IMEI number (a dual SIM phone normally has 2 IMEIs).
SO BEWARE - I've read that in some countries they will blacklist and IMEI if it detects 2 numbers registered to it at the same time (as it's normally a cloned phone). Mine is ok here in the UK after running 2 SIMs for a few days but could potentially cause an issue later on.
Saying that, as it's actually 2 SIMs on the same hardware it will hopefully be ok. I'm wondering if Oppo will pick this up and block the hack in a future update
I've ordered 5 black and 5 gold SIM trays from here, they're on their way to me now.
https://www.sunsky-online.com/product/default!view.do?subject.itemNo=SP7322B
They were only 64p each and £4 postage, so thought I'd get 10 and put on eBay for anyone else wiling to try. Not looking to make a profit, happy to just cover the cost.
From what I understand you only need two IMEIs if it has two transceivers. The find X2 pro has dual standby SIM so both sims use the same transceiver meaning only one SIM can make or receive calls at a time

It's not really a hassle. Just follow the instructions and it'll only take you about 5 mins. I done my phone and my misses phone within 10 mins. Now we're both rocking Android 11/ColourOS 11. Dual SIM is enabled on my UK variant. But I darent try using 2 SIMs just in case it gets blacklisted because they're both the same IMEI.

Is android 11 worth the upgrade may be a better question? I have uk variant but unsure if changing it to Singapore version just for android 11 is worth it. I won't be needing or using 2 sims so it's just about the software experience
Hello,
I have the asus zenfone 9 , I bought this phone only because it had the native call recording service , this service is absolutely necessary for my work.
Unfortunately, after a few days it automatically upgraded to android 12 and this important feature was lost.
I installed dozens of apps, wasted a lot of time, has read hundreds of articles on forums and nothing has worked like tha native call recording service.
I decided to proceed with the root & unlock of my phone, with the unique purpose of getting the mobile phone to record again.
Can you help me>?
do you think this is a good idea?
Hi Nico.
The Zenfone 9 comes with Android 12 by default, it has never had 11 commercially.
Now you've unlocked your phone, when you don't need to. And maybe you've lost your warranty, because tech support is there to solve these problems, even on the phone.
We forget that when we buy a phone, the technical service is there to help us, that is what we have paid for it.
And now I belong to the Android 13 beta program and calls are still being recorded.
Maybe it can serve you to Truecaller.
on A13 zenfone 9 records calls very well. A12 also no problems
Same here, record option is present and works very well (Android 12 et and after the update to Android 13)
Do you use the native Asus contacts & calling app or did you install another app ? (if you did that then yes the call recording option is not present you must revert to the native call app)
The call recording function can be missing depending on your location (its illegal in some countries). Thats why its on some CSCs only for samsung phones.
My guess is that it was enabled for the firmware in the country your phone came from, and when it detected a different country for the update, it changed the locale of the device and removed the call recording function.
I don't see different locales for the firmware posted in https://www.asus.com/mobile/phones/zenfone/zenfone-9/helpdesk_bios/?model2Name=Zenfone-9 it says "WW/EU/RU/IN/TW" so pretty much the whole world.
Maybe the country spectific restrictions get in effect after the first time setup? Try removing the sim card, flash the firmware from Asus website above, do a complete factory reset and don't put the sim card or connect to wifi during the first setup, until you see the home screen.
Hello fellow poco lovers. I used Mint mobile in the US which uses T-mobile's towers. I'm able to makes calls and send/receive texts, but the mobile network sucks. The poco only has 1 wireless band to work in the US with mint so while I'm driving around delivering pizzas I lose internet a lot and sometimes very difficult to get reconnected. I've found a few temporary fixes but those temporary fixes have become more more less reliable.
I found this guide to add wireless bands to any phone with a Qualcomm chip on xda and it inspired me to root my phone. https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-add-all-gsm-and-lte-bands-to-your-phone.2886059/
After about 2 weeks of unlocking bootloader>flashing twrp>flashing magisk>flashing a custom rom>getting the right gapps> soft bricking my phone flashing gapps>reflashed custom rom from sd card>reflashed gapps from sd card>reflashed magisk from sd card>flashed kernel from SD card(yes all in that order)
So in that guide I posted above it mentions a hidden USB settings menu by dialing *#0808#. (I know the guide uses a code for a Samsung phone but Xiaomi's code is the same)
When I type this in the dialer I get a message saying "USSD code running..." then a message that says "connection problem or invalid MMI code"
I even downloaded 4 different hidden menu apps and found the USB settings but I get errors trying to load it as well.
I have LineageOS 19.1 and NGK.
I guess my question is, are the dial codes/hidden menu apps not working because I soft bricked my phone at one point, or am I missing something?
After finding as much info as I can, I guess phones lose access to dial codes and hidden menus when on custom roms and kernels. It looks like some phones have a solution but I couldn't find anything for Xiaomi/Poco f1.
I'm gonna try a few more things and will update this post when I get more info.
Thank you for your time
