I have asked around before about getting the WM6 VoIP on this bad boy, and no one seems interested. The standard Cab files will not work, and it has been speculated this is because of some missing certificate files.

I know there are few out there with other devices that have the 6800 as well, and we can compare the certificate files between the two devices to see if we can get this working. :-)

Have you tried "unlocking" the certificate requirements through the registry?

The settings are available on the HTC WIKI here: http://www.htcwiki.com/page/P4000+Telus?t=anon and will allow programs/cabs to be installed regardless of certificate authentication. Bear in mind, this is NOT a method of unlocking the phone for another network, simply a means to dismiss certificate requirements for program installation.

I'm not interested in the VOIP per se, but if the certificate is the problem, this might be a viable solution... I hope it helps.

Yes I have unlocked the phone. As said its only sepeculated its a certificate issue. After installing the WM6 Voip cab file, all files that are recommended you check for, are there, but the phone does not give you the option to select internet calling.

all files installed, internet calling checked in today's settings, but doesn't appear on today's screen.

does anyone knows what's wrong with ppc6800?

Does anyone have another WM6 device that they have the VoIP Client working on. I think the key maybe a missing Registery setting, but dont have another device to compare too.

Look in this key:

\registry\HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting\

I am guessing for something along the lines of: HiddenInternetPhone or HiddenVoip with a value of 0.

I have the same problem. I installed WM6VoIP.CAB and SetupVoIP_v0.3.CAB, and setup access to the voip provider sip server (voipbuster.com). I was logged into voipbuster on my laptop, and as soon as I clicked ok from the "Setup VOIP" page, I received a message on my laptop indicating that I've been logged out of voipbuster because I have logged in from another computer. So, this means that Internet Calling is indeed working (or at least connected to the voip sip server), but just doesn't show up on the Today screen. I can see the "Internet Calling" option in Settings > Today > Items page, but "Internet Calling" does not appear in the Today page. It may be hidden or missing due to a registry key as the previous poster suggests. I have no idea what that key would be, but if anybody could look and see if you can find anything that would ShowInternetCalling, HideInternetCalling, or something similar in the registry, that would be much appreciated. Thanks.

I have an HTC P4000 (Titan, PPC6800) on the Telus network. And by installing WM6VoIP.CAB and SetupVoIP_v0.3.CAB, I was able to go into the SetupVoIP app and on the last tap, set it to "Whenver Available." This causes VOIP to become active if there is a WiFi connection. Nothing shows up on the Today Screen, but in the Phone screen, TELUS changes to VOIP (or whatever you name the SIP connection). After that, all calls are being routed through the voip provider.

The volume of the rear speaker (and earpiece when connected) is rather low, but definitely audible. That's the last piece of the puzzle I have to figure out.

Ok I’ve got the WM6 sip client working on my phone (telus-p4000) the same way with all the same problems as sabrex does. I’ve tried many voip clients on this phone with the same speaker problem, I’ve read some where that the HTC api doesn’t reference how to access the earpiece speaker on the p4000. Believe me these other voip clients work on almost every phone with proper speaker output, it’s just the p4000 that routes the sound to the rear speaker. So what it looks like is the sip extension to the phone software is trying to use the default wm6 routing path there by pushing all the audio to the rear speaker instead of the earpiece. Now a work around like sabrex said is to use the corded external earpiece. I haven’t been able to get any Bluetooth headsets to work on any of the other voip clients but maybe someone will have better luck with the wm6 client. I don’t know much about sound routing in wm6 but any help with a direction to look in would be appreciated, but I think HTC will be the only ones capable of helping with this.

Has anyone been able to get the Today screen plugin to work with the P4000?

This with WM6VoIP.CAB got it working on my Bell HTC-6800 (HTC Mogul / Titan). It's a user-contrib setup program that handles files and registry settings. Doesn't show on today screen, but it does redirect my phone to SIP when WiFi is available.

I've heard mention of a newer WM6VoIP.CAB, but I can't find it. The setup I have working puts audio through the back speaker, and from what I've read will be prone to very quiet audio.

i just got my Bell HTC-6800

Do I need to unlock it some how for this to work?

I have tried installing WM6VoIP.CAB and using SetupVoIP_v0.3.CAB to no avail.

Please post details of "no avail". How far did you get, any error messages?

Did you configure SIP using SetupVoIP?
- use Start / Programs / Setup VoIP?
- docs / support here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317070)
- did you set options to "whenever available", or "only if cell is not available"?

Which SIP provider (http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/DID+Service+Providers) are you using?

Are you using 802.11? Browser works?

When you view the phone screen, does the top left show VoIP (vs Bell Mobility)?

The Today screen doesn't work on my 6800, and I don't know how to solve it. I can place and receive calls, but the received audio is very quiet and comes through the handsfree (back) speaker. Headset is also very quiet (both wired and bluetooth). But when I'm at our remote mining areas I can place and receive calls.

Are you experienced with VoIP (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voice_over_IP) in general, and SIP (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Session_Initiation_Protocol) in particular?


The whole story is in this very long thread:

thanks for all the info here guys, i was able to get it working today on a bell 6800. im disappointed in the sound and features though. i have a nokia E70 and i use it's built in sip client which works will all the features of my asterisk PBX. i hope that this software will continue to improve.

this is what i heard about the problem

Apparently HTC does not use standard Windows Mobile Audio paths on their devices as opposed to some of the other device manufactures.

This is word for word from HTC:

“It works on most other Windows Mobile devices because they more than likely use Microsoft standard audio path controls, HTC uses their own software architecture which is why it doesn't perform the same.”

Well, that sucks ...
They supply 80% of PDA phones to the market
and there is no work around it ?

My question, why is the sound quiet? Any other application that would put sound out would be normal volume. Why is the VoIP quiet then??

AGEphone Mobile 2 Speakerphone Edition (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=402463) does support the internal speaker on some select models (more to follow!) as of now!
