MagicJack on Pocket PC and Some General Questions

Post by dylan727 »

Hi I am interested in buying magicjack to use on voip softphone for ppc? Can any of you recommended a good VOIP softphone that works with magicjack, I have a Samsung i730 with Windows Mobile 5? Also regarding the retrieval of the magicjack password and sip info is that a one time thing I have to do in order to get the SIP info or does it have to be done every few days or after updates or something?

I am using MJ on an HTC Tilt running Windows Mobile.

I am using Fring. They are other posts in this forum about it.

I used Stroths utilities to get the SIP info. It was very easy. As far as I know it is a one-time thing. Perhaps it might need to be repeated after an update, but updates are rare (~6 months?), certainly not every few days.

Cool but how does fring work on incoming calls does it ring like a regular phone as long as fring is open and connected to wifi?
So if you add a number to your buddy list it will work but not by just dialing a number?, are there any free voip ppc apps that don't have this problem?

Also I have heard that there are some issues with making voip programs work through the pocket pc earpiece instead of speaker do you know a fix for this?

Thanks

There is a Windows Mobile utility called AUDIOROUTE that directs the voip output to internal earpiece vs the outboard speaker.
Good Luck
