[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pulser_g2:
T-mobile definitely uses nat, as I have tried to ssh into my phone etc. I needed to make a listen server and dial into it from the phone.

So what you are doing needs a unique ip or upnp support (which I doubt android can do). But also it needs an isp that don't block ports or anything.

We use vodafone sims for remotely connecting to remote wind farms, as it allows incoming radmin connections.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elmicha:
I guess that no operator supports UPnP/IGD to poke holes in their NAT.

If it's only for transferring files, SwiFTP supports a proxy server that is provided by the author. SwiFTP doesn't support SSL, and I don't think that I would want to send the plain text password to my phone over the Internet.

Another possibility is a VPN from the phone to the PC or router. Than you can start a server like kWS, Android Desktop, PAW Server, I-Jetty, WebFileSystem, etc.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mehumummo:
VPN sounds good, gonna try when I get to home.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mehumummo:
I can get connection using vpn.

However if there are no connection for short time or phone is restarted then vpn connection goes away.

I would like it to reconnect asap but it isn't meant to be that way :/

Couldn't find anything to reconnect vpn.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elmicha:
I didn't try the built-in VPNs (Android 2.1), but it works fine with OpenVPN: even when changing from Wifi to 3G it reconnects after a few seconds. You need root for OpenVPN AFAIK. It works great with VillainROM 12 which comes with OpenVPN. There's a guide at the VillainROM forums.

Hi everyone

I'm looking for an application that reminds me to call someone in spesific days for example workdays and on spesific times?

When the reminder shows up as a popup or stg else it should directly give me shortcut to call that contact?

Can anybody help with this?

in nokia s60 series there is an application like that
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watcher64:

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Jay321:
hey guys i was just trying to figure out what the best roms are out there
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] aserp:
I wouldn't be able to give you the 'best' CDMA ROM here, and I believe no one can.

However, my two cents is that MightyROM is really nice. It's a CDMA-only ROM and is pretty speedy (it scored some pretty high benchmarks on PPCgeeks). Anyhow, the guys over at PPCgeeks have a much larger CDMA community (sorry!), so you should check them out.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] meanvulcan:
My quick answer is that the best TP2 CDMA ROM is mine... because I haven't made it and never will, but if I did it would be the best ever ;)

Seriously though, this question has only one correct answer: it the ROM you like the best, based on your criteria and individual preferences, after trying the many ROMs that are available. Good or bad, I don't think there is another answer. Happy flashing!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] lubbad85@hotmail.com:
Mighty Rom

I would vote for Mighty Rom. Ease of use-support-themes enabling wifi, and all else. There has to be some thought given to what you are looking for.

Stability

Stripped down versions

Speed

I have been pretty happy with Mighty Rom but you may think otherwise. I have a cousin who changes his Rom almost every other day. Checking out which one fits his needs.
[G1 Apps and Games] hudl:
I use this Phone.apk because i like the layout. I prefer it so much over the standard one, which is included in cm5.0.8 final (and 6 now). It was included once in 5.0.8test3 as far as i remember but was changed finally. Why?

So, anyone knows what version this is and where i maybe get a more recent version of it (doesn't work in cm6 for me)?

Thanks!
[G1 Apps and Games] zenstitution:
idk how it is in the g1 cm6 but in the cdma hero cm6 its included.
[G1 Apps and Games] hudl:
Ah - so it's a hero phone apk!?

Thanks for your hint - will have a look for it!
[G1 Apps and Games] el_smurfo:
It's the full eclair dialer and it was removed because the G1 does not have a proximity sensor, so too many people complained about their faces hitting the hold button at the top. For a while in CM5, you could select either, but that seems gone as well.
[G1 Apps and Games] Sleeepy2:
It's still in CM5 and CM6.

Settings > Call Settings > Force Touch Keyboard.

Mine's grayed out with it checked for some reason but it works.
[G1 Apps and Games] themapleboy:
^^^this

i have it running fine on my dream with Cy6
[G1 Apps and Games] hudl:
Well, i knew this option, but never tried it.. :D

At least i don't have to push this apk everytime from now on. Unfortunately CM6 doesn't run stable enough for me on my MyTouch...

Thanks!
[G1 Apps and Games] mr.incredible:
This is the phone app in 508. Go to Settings\Call Settings\ click the check box "In-call touch UI". You can even reverse which side the keyboard button is by checking the "Left-hand mode"
[G1 Apps and Games] tehseano:
Anyone know what happened to the ability to slide to answer? The phone.apk had two slide bars (like the lock screen) to answer, and mute a call. However this feature was removed. Anyone know why/how to use it again?

Sure I've used other keyboards. I'm using swype right now and have a soft spot for SwiftKey too. The default Android keyboard is awesome because it's just a keyboard. Nothing special. Like a typewriter lol

[EVO 4G General] acme64:
I've used a few solutions that stream your MP3's to your phone. but none of them seem to have a feature im looking for. All i want to do is be able to randomly play the entire collection. I've tried subsonic, but it downloads everything to the actual phone which is annoying. mecanto can't play everything at once, even with a playlist and its missing a search function if i wanna play something specific. I used to use Orb with some play on my touch pro i forgot, that worked kinda well except it buffered like a mofo. Any other suggestions out there? I was thinking of setting up an ampache server but i'd need to learn how to setup a server first >.>
[EVO 4G General] CollegeFresh:
Try using Homepipe, download the app free from market then go to the website on your computer and you just add what folders you want to share. After doing that you can stream mp3s, and download videos or other files to your phone and vice versa. It takes like 5 minutes to setup

This is news to me...and yes, there is a thread trying to get 4G working..I still don't have 4G...this is the only thing I haven't tried, although I don't think it'll get it working..but I'll try...
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrmomoman:
I think more clarification is warranted.

What ROM are you speaking of specifically that 4G is not working? Outside of the Froyo ROM's where a few things are known to not be working at this moment and 4G is one of them.

The 2.1 ROM's having functioning 4G and Wifi Sharing for the most part. Some OTA updates caused 4G to continually scan for signal but it doesn't mean it was not working. It was corrected on some phones by following some instructions posted on the boards for a little while now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] udjat:
4G works for sure on DamageControl and Fresh 5.3 with the current Radio and WiMax radio installs.

Been using DamageControl for a week and Fresh for a day so far. No problems.

4G DC and Fresh Verified in PDX.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vandam500:

wtb 4g froyo rom nom!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Saturn2K:
That rom is referencing a problem with 4G that happened around Evo's release. It has nothing to do with the latest OTA update's issues or Froyo's issues.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lordtigger:
I'm not sure of the exact ROM I have, if you tell me how to check I can. But basically, I ran through Toast's steps (both 1 and 2) to gain full root and installed the new radio. No upgraded ROM's or anything.

I can connect to 4G (at least it looks like it to me) but when I have it on, I can't use any data transfer stuff like email/internet.

I'll probably just upgrade to the Fresh ROM since it sounds like that is the one everyone likes, but as of now, no 4G.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chumba8:
yeah I thought 4g was working for just about everyone unless your rom has it broken already and you need to fix it and that link you put up is way old he updated it today with the fixes
[Droid Incredible General] parcou:
First please limit the remarks about this is illegal and I am sure those issues vary from state to state and on how it is used...

I am a support tech engineer that handle a lot of conference calls and on my Windows Mobile 6.5 there was a free app on XDA (see below) I used to record calls.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=536472

Resco poplar WM app developer had a paid one

http://www.resco.net/pocketpc/audiorecorder/

Being project manager it is hard to write all the things down on a call so an app that records the calls allow me to playback the call and re-capture all missed items...

So with all due respect I have searched the market and cannot find a good app that records calls...well I only see one out there with bad reviews.

For personal usage and not to misuse, can someone recommend one, or PM me if you have something to share with me? I will gladly so gratitude..

Just got my phone! Looked through the user guide and didn't see anything that tells me how to bring my outlook contact and calendar to the phone.

I do not want anything to go to the cloud, and I don't use exchange. I just want a simple window XP outlook to Samsung Galaxy S sync.

I came across a program called the Missing Sync but it cost $50 adding 10% to the phone cost!!! Something so basic should come working out of the box to be honest without further cost.

Is there any free program that you guys have tried and found working?

Install the Samsung Kies application, should do the trick.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nicoloco:
On my side I have an exzchange server and I wanted also to sync the calendar

And it didn't work with the native exhcange sync with the calendar app

So I used the google calendar sync software to sync the outlook calendar with the google calendar

Then you can use the native sync between the phone and google calendar which works fine

Having exchange or not shoud not change anything
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eaglesteve:
Isn't google calendar usage means surrendering my private data to the cloud?

What about contact information?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eaglesteve:
How does this works? How do I first sync outlook to Kiev?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nicoloco:

I must confess that strangely the contacts are well sync with the exchange server so I did'nt check other solutions ...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eaglesteve:
I thought the meaning of cloud is clear, but if the answer is yes then I'm not prepared to let Google have my personal information.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eaglesteve:
Have already tried the following:

1) Android-Sync - does not work.

2) CompanionLink USB - does not work

3) Sync2 - does not work

This is very frustrating. I still can't bring in my contact and calendar from my iPhone to Android.

Anybody knows how that can be done? (No Cloud please). I cannot believe that after 3 years, Android is still so raw with missing basic functionalities like this without having to pay USD$50 for missing sync (assuming that it even works)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] miker33:
I've sync'd my outlook contacts\calendar through the Kies software. You should be able to connect your phone to Kies then click on the phone icon to show the options for sync of calendar and contacts.

Have to admit it's pretty rubbish functionality compared to the HTC sync app and activesync. Can't get it to auto sync when the phone is connected it's a manual job every time.

Looks like Android fails miserably in this area. Noway I will let Google force me to surrender my private information to them in the cloud.

From here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.2-highlights.html

Exchange support

Improved security with the addition of numeric pin or alpha-numeric password options to unlock device. Exchange administrators can enforce password policy across devices.

Remote wipe: Exchange administrators can remotely reset the device to factory defaults to secure data in case device is lost or stolen.

Exchange Calendars are now supported in the Calendar application.

Auto-discovery: you just need to know your user-name and password to easily set up and sync an Exchange account (available for Exchange 2007 and higher).

Global Address Lists look-up is now available in the Email application, enabling users to auto-complete recipient names from the directory.

After long researching, only free method to sync contacts and calendar (and I do this) is to get gmail account. Export contacts and calendar in csv form ro PC and import it in gmail account. Till I find another free solution how to sync it, I'm using this method each day I leave my office.It takes not more than one minute. I know it is not confortable (been used to WM syncing), but it is only free way so far...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eaglesteve:
I've finally got it done with Samsung Kies. Wasn't smooth sailing at all. Had to remove the contact group before I managed to bring every contact over. I still can't bring the calendar ovef yet.

Manage to bring the music and videos overs with only some if the album artwork. Playlist did not sync over for some strange reasons.

Not yet, but I do not want my data going into the cloud, so I won't use this method. Thanks for your reply anyway.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tamanaco:
I'm on the same boat as the OP. At this point, I do not want my data in the cloud. I have been waiting for an answer in this Sync Gmail Contacts thread in the Google Help forums where this issue is being discussed. I believe that Google is making a strategic mistake by not providing a bridge to Android for the multitude of users that currently have all their PIM data in Outlook and Outlook Express. Providing users with PC Outlook<->Android Phone sync functionality would make it easier for Google to convert these Outlook users to cloud computing. Once their precious data is "captive" in the Android platform easing them into cloud computing would be less painful and somewhat seamless. Remember that there is a lot of functionality in the Outlook client that corporate users rely on. There are a lot users where I work that are reluctant to sync "only" with the cloud for fear of losing Outlook functionality. (Exchange contacts and schedule meetings via Outlook email is a must-have) Also, there are geographical areas where cell phone coverage is not good enough for reliable internet access and where WiFi is not available. I have my clients data in my laptop and phone and at night I sync both of them when I'm away in some out of the way hotel room. I can always sync my laptop securely and reliably (using a VPN) from my hotel room either via Ethernet, WiFi "and" Dial-Up when I need to get data from the Exchange servers in headquarters.

I'm just about to buy a Samsung Captivate and having this Samsung Kies application work reliably (even if I have to manually sync) would be great. I hope that Samsung realizes the need for this Outlook to Android bridge and invests on making this Kies application as nearly functional to ActiveSync as possible. I believe it would help them gain users that the Android platform has forgotten about.
