Flummoxed by Internet Calling

I didn't think it would be rocket science getting VoIP working on my Titan (VZW XV6800), but I guess it is. Any rocket scientists out there willing to help?

My (current) rig:

ROM: Bare WM6.5 w/no OEMs (PPCKitchen Build 21501.5.0.70)
Radio: 3.37.75
HW Ver: 0003

I've tried every method I can find to enable Internet Calling. There's 3 or 4 cabs that have various combinations of the required files, SIP config tools, dialing plan config tools. All of them give me the option to enable Internet Calling in the Today settings, but it doesn't show up on the Today screen, nor does the Internet tab in the phone settings.

I've tried this on stock VZW ROMs, ROMs I've cooked with WM6 VOIP built in, and finally a stock WM6.1 with no OEMs. Nothing makes a difference.

I have a hard time believing it, but could this be a hardware issue? Has anyone with Hardware Version 0003 been successful getting VoIP working?

Are there any ROMs that have Internet Calling enabled by default? I'd be happy to drop one of those on my Titan to test.

If there's a post out there somewhere that explains how to get around this, my apologies for asking again. I know the VoIP subject has been beaten to death by people who can't follow directions or who can't search a forum. I'm not one of them - I've spent countless hours reading every VoIP thread I can find here and on xda-devs.

Thanks for any help.

I don't know if this help but have you tried Skype? I use it on my xv6800 with no problems

+1 on that. I just wish I could figure out how to use it through the regular earpiece and not the speaker. It's most successful with the wired headset that came with the phone.

Edison ...
check out this thread:

I've had Gizmo voip working on 21501 but have not had success on newer 6.5 builds. The newer HTC phones like the TP don't have the earpiece / rear speaker issue but I've never found a fix for the xv6700 or xv6800.

Heh, I've responded to that thread. I didn't see the reg hack the first few times I read it and spent a few hours dorking with dialers and skins. Seems to be working now.

As to the earpiece, I think there's a modified rtc.dll that fixes that issue. I'll do some testing in the next day or so and report back.
