Hi All,

I'm hoping someone can help me. I tried another forum but never heard back. There are a couple of problems. I received an unlocked HP iPAQ 510 Voice Messenger for Christmas 2007. I can't find any information on fixing this or a fix for this.

When I am on the phone talking to someone, they can hear that I’ve received a message (voice, text, etc). They can hear reminder sounds and that I’ve missed calls. It just keeps on playing right out of the speaker. We just have to wait for it to play out. It doesn't matter if the call is on Normal, Outdoor, or Vibrate. The other party and I can still hear that a message or alert has come through. I did stumble onto an option under Settings>Accessibility. I can change the In-Call Alert Volume from 0-5. I won't hear the alert while on the phone if I set the profile to Silent or if I adjust the In-Call Alert Volume to 0. I would like a way to hear a regular beep and for the other caller to hear nothing. You know... as though I am using some other phone that works properly. I hate having to go back and forth changing my profiles. It must be HP related or something. My friend has an iMate sp5m and this doesn’t happen to them. We even compared our registries. I’ve not stumbled onto this in various forums.

Also, for incoming calls, I’ve chosen a ringer of my choice. When I answer the call, it stops playing this ringer sound immediately. I would like the same to happen for my messages. When I receive any type of text message, upon checking the message, the sound should cease. It is not doing this. How can this be fixed? Now after checking the forums, it seems that there is no real way to do this regardless of if it is Windows Mobile 5 or 6. However, I figured I'd ask or I could've missed something.

I chatted with HP a couple times and they had me do a master reset a few times. This didn’t help it. I called the repair number and they sent me another phone. I received the new HP iPAQ 510 today. It still has the same issue with playing tones while I am on the phone. Is there a registry value or something that I am missing?

I haven’t done much within the registry of this phone. I have completely unlocked the phone using SDA Application Unlock and changed a couple policy values.

Begging for help,
Shelli

Thank you for your reply and confirmation on the text message issue. Also, I turned on the loudspeaker while on a call. I sent a message and took it off and sent one as well. We could still hear the tone. You mentioned that you have or had a 514. Does this issue I'm describing when on a call sound familiar to you? I may have HP send me a 514 (if there are less issues) or maybe I'll look at getting an HTC Touch Dual or a S730. Of course I'll have to research them more.
