It's done! AGEphone Mobile 2.85 Speakerswitch Edition // New Interface!

[Falk]

After so many of you have asked us over and over we finally added support for using the internal speaker with our WM 5/6 softphone AGEphone Mobile. Up until now all VoIP-software had to cope with the problem that only the external speaker could be used on most devices. AGEphone Mobile 2.76 Speakerswitch Edition (changelog) makes it possible for the very first time to use internet telephony just like any other call without the need for a headset or advanced echo cancellation. The latest version has the potential to run on almost any HTC device, but for now we have confirmed support for


HTC Trinity

HTC Hermes

HTC Touch: There is a new audio driver from HTC that seems to enable speaker switching on all HTC Touch devices without a ROM change. So just save yourself the reflashing process and download the .CAB file attached to post #280. Please don't forget to backup before you try to install this! Also, do NOT try to install any other Touch models (see post #364)!

HTC Touch Dual

HTC Touch Pro: Latest reports (see post #448 and #461) indicate that speaker switching is working on this device. Please grab the AGEphone Mobile 2 demo, go to the audio settings (page 2) and enable "Switch Speakers during Call". After that close the settings, close AGEphone Mobile and restart your device. This way you can make sure whether or not it works with your ROM without investing anything but 5 minutes of your time.

HTC Touch HD

HTC Touch 3G: One user confirmed it to be working in post #478 but was complaining about audio dropouts. Please post to confirm or dismiss this.

HTC Kaiser: T-Mobile MDA Vario III users should take a look at post #345 for more information.

Sony Ericsson Xperia X1

Toshiba TG-01: Tested with the Docomo (Japan) and O2 (Germany) WM 6.1 ROMs. Might work on WM 6.5 as well. Please report!

OMAP devices: There is a new audio driver from HTC that seems to enable speaker switching on some OMAP devices. You can find the necessary .CAB file attached to post #280. Please don't forget to backup before you try to install this!


In many cases not all ROMs will work for a specific device as their audio drivers don't support rerouting the audio even if the device itself does. We plan to gradually extend the functionality until we cover all relevant Windows Mobile 5 / 6 devices and all available ROMs so that nobody ever needs to look back to normal calls! After starting the program just make sure you go to "3. Audio" (page 2) in the settings and activate "Switch Speakers during Call". Please always make sure that your data is backed up when testing the option for the first time: The feature is experimental and may lock up your device to the point where it needs a hard reset... it would definitely be a pity for your data!

Regardless whether or not speaker switching works on your device, please attach your basic log file to the thread so the we can improve the functionality for everyone. The log option can be found under "Menu - About - More...". Just press "Save" and the program informs you where you can find the "Info.txt" it created. You can trim the file down to Hardware Information, System Information and Driver Enumeration as shown in post #285. Please also add which ROM you are using as it can be quite a chore finding the correct distribution. If you want to make things 100% complete you can also attach the "wavedev.dll" from your Windows folder provided it can be copied. Happy logging

AGEphone Mobile 2.76 Speakerswitch Edition can be downloaded directly here. The program costs $35 USD and there is a free trial version available. I'm looking forward to your remarks and questions here in the thread, by mail to [michael // ageet // com] or in the page chat on our homepage!

Wow. Finally, someone has resolved this. Congratulations and great job.

Now, to make me a customer, please add the Titan (Mogul) HTC 6800 to the list of phones you plan to support.

Thanks.

Trying to add my own SIP server but getting an error message:

The available data is insufficiant or wrong. Please check again.

Tried everything but keeps returning with this message. Can you give me a solution?

It is working now. Needed to add Username and authorization to save it.

I have to get my voip running again on my Kaiser first.

But is this app a voip client also?

[nazzza]

Is possible to redirect the calls to internal speakerphone using skype mobile or fring?
thank you

[Falk]

@jmmertens: Many connection and provider related problems can't be resolved without having a closer look at your configuration and the output AGEphone Mobile generates while trying to connect to your provider. To protect private settings like username and password we never (or rarely) ask for your configuration files but rather request two types of logs. The more general one can be found under "Menu - About - More...". Please press "Save" and the program informs you where you can find the "Info.txt" it created. The more detailed configuration file will only be generated on request as it would get too big if it was running all the time. You can set AGEphone to write this log under "Menu - Settings - Maintenance" and there "Create Detailed Log". The program informs you that this will decrease your available disk space and you should only leave the option enabled until you have encountered your problem again. The "log.txt" file can be found under "My Documents \ My Phone Booth". Please send the log files to michael//ageet//com (you know what to make of this ) afterwards.

@GLO: AGEphone Mobile 2.5 is a full blown VoIP-softphone that doesn't need the Windows Mobile client to run. Actually it goes way beyond what Microsoft's crippleware offers(not that I blame them as the providers didn't want functional VoIP in WM6).

@nazzza: The function is closely related the AGEphone Mobile's audio processing and can't be used by other applications.

Is there a setup guide?

if not what is Realm and Registrar in the SIP Server info page?

and how do you toggle between your VSPs?

Does it support dial plans or least cost routing?

thanks

[Falk]

@GLO: Our setup (there's no guide covering the new version as of now, but feel free just to ask here) has a few options more than your average VoIP-softphone as we try to support all kinds of providers around teh world. Some (especially Japanese providers) use more exotic and obscure settings and that's what you need Realm and registrar for sometimes. But usually Realm + username merely equals your SIP-URI (username@domain.com) and if the registrar is different from the normal SIP-Server your provider usually says so. Just as an example:

Realm: voipbuster.com
Domain: voipbuster.com
Server: sip.voipbuster.com
Registrar: sip.voipbuster.com

would be a typical setup for one of the many Betamax VoIP-Providers (to be found here in overview).

Toggling between your VSPs can be done using the Provider Quickswitch by pressing [Enter], the [Action Button] or double tapping the touch screen. You can also hold the button / screen a bit longer and you get to see your provider list to choose from.

Apart fom that AGEphone Mobile 2.5 currently does not support dial plans or least cost routing. We have plans for the future in that area to cater to people with more complex setups where the Provider Quickswitch is of little or no help anymore.

Hello Falk,

I have it working but not with the internal speaker on my Touch Elfin (Touch XL). All sound comes from the external speaker.

We are running SpheriCall.

Any other setting that I missed?
------
Touch Elfin is working now too! Did a reset and now it works!

-------
I have the HTC Touch Cruise(Polaris) working with the internal speaker. Audio Settings speaker Default and in Interface Switch speakers during call.

@jmmertens: Please send me the your log files by PM or mail and I will take a closer look at this. It seems that there are some problems with the Touch that need to be ironed out.
