Transfer Caller Announcement to BT headset

[Bad Sector]

Sorry guys, I have not check on this forum because some other programmers found a way to include everything I had done into a full blown VC 1.6 install file. No more loading my app to make BT transfer to headset.

I do know that the Treo phones have never worked with my program, something different about the hardware setup that I was never able to figure out. (I don't have a treo)

I now just use the file created with the announcements fixed. Let me find the link...

Some people have said that this may only be WM6 phones. Also that with mogul and the 2.17 it might cause endless reboots? I am not too sure, please read thru that fourm and see if this is what you need.

I just got my mogul recently, and I have not really tried messing with it. When I load it on my phone and test it, I will give an update as to my progress.

The only thing that should be "Silent" is the "Ring Tone" not the Ring Type.

You may be able to try this fix for the Treo phones, i am not sure.

Good luck.

Ok, I have tested my Mogul with VV's 6.1.1 rom and the Link above for MSVC announcments. The announcement work fine. I get caller ID announcement with no BT tone. I get text msg announced.

Everything seems fine, except that I cannot get Media files to play over the BT yet. I have tried WM and it just won't play over the BT. I have tired "Open Audio" and it stops working after a little while. I will look more in on this when I have time a report back.

Hey Bad Sector. Got a question for ya. The Audio shortcut that gets created in the start menu...would there be a way to just get that? I have a Treo 800w and using that actually allows me to hear my Sprint TV and Windows Media Player through my headset. Any chance that you could modify it to be exitable?

I went ahead and made it so that if you want to close the audio gateway, if it for some reason was staying on and u didn't want it on, you can now just open IDTransfer and check the disable box. That will close the gateway and you can then re-enable IDTransfer.

If you install this latest version and you are running Kirvin's 3.5 No Junk Sprint you will no longer get the annoying BT headset rings that used to come thru with ID annoucement. Kirvin's is the AKU i'm using, so I'm not sure if other cooked AKU's will work the same, but I know this one works. Also some other AKU's have some corrupt/missing GAC files that will make my program not work.

I'd have to say this program is perfect now. It does everything I've wanted and sounds great now with only annoucing the incomming caller ID and no rings. But if you do have any other suggestions that you would like to see, just post them here or pm me.

Please donate if you use and enjoy this program. I'd think it's worth a buck? Help a programmer out. And thanks to everyone for their help and input. ENJOY!!!!

Here is a update. Please uninstall your previous version before installing the new 1.03 version.
TO UPDATE: Go to settings and Remove Programs. Remove any older version of my software. Then using File Explorer or Total Commander (ect.) browse to your \Windows\Start Menu\Program\ and delete the following files:
IDTransfer
Audio.exe

You can also check in /Program Files for idtransfer and delete that as well. Then just run the latest version to install.

Rename the .zip file to a .cab file and place on your PPC. Run from PPC.

Installer will no longer place a shortcut in your Windows/Startup folder, you will need to launch the program from the Programs menu. If you want it to start automatically, just copy a shortcut of the file to the Windows/Startup folder.

After launching the app, you will need to check the new "Enable" box for it to start working. You can disable it now as well.

Fixed extra copies of IDTrans showing up in wrong places.

No help the those smartdevices that did not work before so far

This program was developed for my PPC-6700. So any phones of that model/hardware configuration should be able to run this program.

Please donate if you enjoy this program. And keep the suggestions coming on anything else you would like me to add/remove

*** UPDATE *** COMPLETELY REVAMPED *** NOW CALLED IDTRANSFER***
-No longer do you need to have .NET CF 2.0!!!!!
-Program will no longer "sometimes" miss the first Incoming call (no "kick" start required)
-Fixed ability to say "Open Audio" to transfer all phone audio to BT Headset

This program works best if you have Microsoft Voice Commander (any version)
I believe I have fixed every request and or problem now. This program will now run without CF 2.0 (Big space saving bonus). If any more problems are noticed or still not dealt with, please let me know as soon as possible.

Please remeber to donate if you enjoy this program! Donate Link: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/websc...harset=UTF%2d8

Enjoy!!
************************************************** ********
-To uninstall previous versions:
Reboot phone, Tap the "Exit" button, goto Settings and Remove Programs and remove any other "Bad Sector's" programs. Then install new version.

Description:
I have written a program that will now take your Caller Announcement and send it to your BT Headset! No more have to pull your phone from holster or out of pocket to see who is calling. This program should work with any Windows Mobile 5.0 PPC phone. Enjoy!


TIPS: For MS Voice Command users, you need to click Start Menu/Setting then open the Voice Command icon. Then select (highlight) the Phone option in the scroll list and then press "Options" and make sure to Check the "Announce incoming calls". On "Notifications" using MSVC 1.6 i have selected "Announce using Bluetooth hands free only" but i actually do get all other announcements i.e. meetings and such thru it. If you try this and it does not work, just select "...notifications thru device speaker or wired headset only".

I already have this program since owning my PPC6700 and Mogul. However on this phone the Touch Pro it doesn't seem to work with regards to opening the gateway so I can listen to music. I tried that command Open Audio and it does open the gateway but it doesn't stay open but for more than 2 seconds. What can I do to fix this?
