TrueFax included with MDAIII ?

[thanatos]

Just been looking through the manual of my MDA III and it mentions the use of TrueFax (Pages 131 to 134), great I thought, that will come in handy. But I can't find it on my MDAIII? :cry:

Is it included? I've looked on the CDs but one is for activesync and the other contains the voice dialing software.

I've even downloaded it and installed it, but its says thats it a trial version.

Thanks

Richard

Hi,
i just got my Qtek9090 today and still comparing it with my qtek2020. What voice dialling software are you talking about ?? I found true fax on mine, installed from ext rom, but i can't seem to find any voice dialling....

care to trade ????? ;)
hihihihihihiihi

Its called 'Fonix VoiceDial'. My MDAIII came with version 2.0

Its clever, in that you say the person's name and number type, for example:

'Richard Mobile' and it says it back to you (in a computer voice) then you have to say 'Yes' or 'No' to confirm dialling.

Not very handy in that you have to start it up, via opening the software, so not very hands free!

Thanks, what happened was I cocked up the first 'hard reset' - when I first switched it on... :roll:

Sync'd it with Outlook and hard reset it, and its sorted :D

Thanks!

I've set the voice dial to the record button on the side of the MDAIII for quick dialing.

So simple, yet so difficult for Richard.

Thanks! - What a cracking idea :idea:

I-mate must not be including Fonix with their PDA2K units. :(

Folks I've got a question for those of you that have a PDA2K/MDAIII does the fax software work? Cuse I can send faxes fine but can't recieve any, and apparently I'm not the only one if you take a look at the clubimate forums.

If it does work for you folks could some kind individual post the cab file for it from their extended rom.

True Fax does work really well in sending faxes, once I had figured out I had it I had sent a fax within minutes.

Now receiving faxes, thats a different story:

With T-Mobile there are two different services:

Service 1 (Free to use for business customers)
First you need to ask your operator for a fax number on your account. With T-Mobile its apart of their VoiceMail+.
This enables you to receive faxes to your voice mail. So you can receive faxes, but they don't get to your pda :-( , when you recieve a fax, you get a voicemail message saying that you have a fax, you can then either delete it or sending to a 'real' fax machine.

Service 2 (£25 one off cost)
To receive faxes on our I-MatePDA2k you need to ask your operator for a fax and data line. once you have a fax and data number you can actually receive faxes on your PDA, but not how you would expect....
With your PDA you need to turn on the 'recieve fax mode' within TrueFax. This enables you to receive faxes, but it turns off your mobile number so you can't make or receive calls :shock: when in this mode.

Vodafone in the UK have 'vodafone.net' which incorporates SMS/Email/Voice/Fax into one and I do really miss that service, becuase when I recieved a fax it came to me as an email attachment.

Hope that helps

Hi everybody,

I have SPV M2000 fron Orange in Switzerland.
It doesn't seem to have TrueFax installed at all.... :x

Is there a way to get this program for free or I have to buy it?
thanks in advance

I'm afraid Fax support is completely network dependant. Some providers support it, some don't. You will need to ring your provider and ask them about it. Even if they do support it, they will probably give you another "fax only" number that people must send faxes to in order for your device to receive them.

Hi

Just to let people know, that the O2 Online Consumer tarriff does not and will not support fax send/recieve (this came from the horses mouth).

O2 Online Business tarriffs do support fax and they will allocate a fax no for the mobile. Ditto Consumer and Business O2 tarrifs bought from an O2 shop.

If you need fax, avoid O2 Online Consumer tarrifs as they will not enable fax.
