If you can set up Asterisk on your machine then yes, you can register the SIP client in your N95 to it and use it to place VoIP calls through the VoIP provider of your choice (personally I use these folks and there's this hotwo document that should get you started.
NB: I don't know if Asterisk works on Windows and if it does, where its configuration files are located.

You can use apps such as Skype For iPad from the app store, but if you are asking whether you can make 'normal' phone calls with it then no, you can't.

Nokia N95 through Orange and Satnav

Can anyone advise. I purchased my nokia N95 via an upgrade through Orange. I wanted this phone specifically because it has satnav features. I was told that i could purchase the software needed to activate the satnav feature through Orange and that it would be at a small one off subscription fee and that there would be no further charges to use the Satnav.
Well i have just received my phone bill and i am being charged for using my satnav each time i use it !!! I specifically asked about this feature an the salesman clearly said that there would be no further charges. Also using the satnav i have found out that each time i download maps for the city of birmingham Uk which is where i live, because the software cant find simple adresses in the area, i am being charged by orange for this too!!!
I phoned Orange and they tell me that i will always be charged for using satnav as it connects to the internet via their web network. They told me that a third party were charging me for downloading the maps and not them. This, i have subsequently found to be complete BS
My question is
Has anyone found a way to use the satnav on the N95 without being charged for every second they use it or can anyone sugest another satnav system that can be used on the Nokia N95 that does not require regular downloads to simply use the maps that are supposed to be already included in the **bleep** software ????
Also can someone explain to me what WiFi is and what voip is ?
Cheers

you need this for the free maps http://www.smart2go.com/en/download
also the easy way to explain voip is to say.. connect anywhee in the world via wi-fi and call a mate (who also has voip) and it won't cost you a single penny. visit truphone for more info on voip, but unfortunatly for you, orange have screwed the handest so you'll have to install 3rd party apps to get the (unseamless) voip to work on your phone. see this thread. /discussions/board/message?board.id=smartphones&message.id=42579#M42579Message Edited by rich_enduro on 08-Jun-200712:16 AM

Using Nokia N95 with Mac?

Does anybody know if the new Nokia N95 can be synced up with Mac. The nokia website only mentions the PC suite for windows. I have managed to download photos via the usb cable, but would like to download maps for the built-in satnav, transfer videos music etc...
My dusty 5 year old PC laptop has been in the cupboard for 2 years since I bought my first Mac and I'd rather not go back and upgrade eveything just to make the most of this cool new device.

You can only use MapLoader on Windows.
I am using it under Parallels Desktop Build 3188. The thing is, smart2go who i think provides the map is still on beta stage. Out of the box, it has been my pratice to reformat my phone, so I have lost the maps. When I tried to download Philippines map (1.3 mb) it took me an hour to complete the download.

Nokia 520 no sound, cannot make calls

Last week my Nokia 520 that i have had for three months has started to breakdown. When playing music on the phones speakers or playing anything that had sound on the phone it stopped working. My headphone socket still works. The strange thing is my ringtones and alarms still work through the speaker? I had completed a factory reset and still it has not worked.
Now i cannot make calls my phone rings the person i cannot hear them at all they cannot hear me? Im really disappointed and want to know has anyone else came across these problems? Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

okay here is what happend, yesterday after 3 to 4 hours after I posted the problem heoundre, the s came back. I did NOT reset the phone or did anything, It was on the table and when i unlocked it there was sound. which was really frustrating cuz i could not find out what was it that caused the problem. then today in the evening i was playing this game, and again the sound went dead again.
I factory reset the phone, nothing happend. what the hell is going on with my phone. I can take my phone to nokia care centre but they will keep it for days. and I think the speaker is okay thats why the sound came back. right? Please I want a reply from some nokia support staff. this is serious.
Thanks

Illegal use of my skype number to make calls

Can anyone use your Skype number to make calls? I had a return call today from someone I do not know and they were returning a call they said I made earlier today and this person had my Skype number correctly. How can someone, or anyone for that matter, use my Skype number to make calls? Is there a way to stop that? Anyone with an answer, please respond.

Well, as I mentioned before, if it's a HH2 and the rear of it is in view of the public, then every Thomas, Richard and Harry will be able to see the wireless key and make full use of the Internet.
Hi.
Although possible, that's not entirely true. If the user has altered the wireless key, then viewing the back of the hub will not help
But how many out there in BT land actually do change it?
BT only prompt the user to change the default admin password if and when they first access the hub.
At least BT thought about the label design on the HH3, keeping it hidden until needed.
I reckon hardly anyone would change the wireless key to be honest , but I wonder how many leave them in a window ...

Using Nokia N95 with Itunes

Is it possible to copy the song I purchase from itunes to my Nokia N95?

Only the iPod/iPhone range and the iTunes enabled phones from Motorola are compatible with iTunes for Windows and with copy protected songs from the iTunes Music Store. If you don't have one of these devices you can't play the songs in their protected state. You may be able to get your phone to connect to iTunes and add non DRM encoded songs to it with the aid of a third party helper program. Have a look at this one and see what you think: iTunes Agent -Windows

Nokia 6280 - not allowed to make calls or use web.

Anyone know how to reset this handset. Had it 2 days, only changed the pincodes, now unable to make any outgoing functions work?? Any clues please.....

Actually I did the 50+ mile round trip and a re-flash didn't fix it. Came back and called 3 tech help who send me to a Carphone Warehouse store (8 miles away this time) to check if the SIM worked in another 3 phone. It didn't but they couldn't check my phone as 'they didn't have an active 3 SIM in the store'. Back to cust. services who told me they would decide whether to recall the phone (now 7 days old) or send another SIM within 24 hours - now 25 hours ago and no call.
I guess I should have just insisted on them picking it up in the first place or called the internet site that sold me the phone. Meanwhile I'm glad I've still got my old O2 phone! The downside is that it's going to cost me at least 1 more 0870 call to find out what's going on. I wonder what the chances are of getting some money off my bill this month?

Using Nokia 5800 GPS and accepting a call

Hi, I was wondering if there was a way to answer calls while the GPS is on on my Nokia 5800 Navigation Edition. Currently, when I use the GPS and someone calls, I tap the answer button, but I get a message that says not allowed. I was looking around in the settings, but can't find anything. I was hoping there would be a way to answer the call and turn on the speakerphone so I can drive and talk at the same time. Anyway know if this is possible?
Thanks!

Getting my first call during active turn-by-turn navigation, I wondered about this strange behaviour too. As it is I dont see any green phone icon on the navigation screen. With the terminal placed in the included windscreen fixture, it is hardly traffic safe to have to press many buttons to get the handsfree activated! Nokia could consider another option on the main screen when a call is waiting to be accepted, for going directly to speakerphone-mode, or at least a configurable option within the maps application. As of now it jumps back to the maps app, which induces the added (two) press of the application switch button. I suppose buying a separate handsfree kit might 'solve' this basic issue, but that should really not be needed out-of-the-box with a dedicated navigation edition. If someone figures a setting that I have overlooked, I would be pleased to get a hint, thx.

Nokia N95 8GB / Photo Albums - make private

Hi,
Is there any way when adding a picture in a photo album to be seen only when accessing that album and not in the general view when going to the "Images and Videos" in the Gallery ??
Than you guys...

Connect the phone to your computer in mass storage mode.
Assuming you're using Windows, a new removable drive will appear in your "My Computer".
Look in there and see if there's anything in the "Images" directory. If there isn't anything then I'm afraid you'll have to restore what you can from your latest backup. You did do backups regularly, right? People usually do when they value their data.

Yes you are right,but some one who are in my list calls the ringtone starts noramlly but in middle it stops for 1 sec making some sound only 1 sec then the ring continues,i dont know why this is happening.
It sounds like you have the "Say caller's name" active within profile settings.
This will start the ringtone, pause, then a synthersized voice will pronounce the contacts name, then the ringtone will carry on again.
Depending on the wording you have stored in the contact's details, determines what the little voice says.

Newly activated Palm Treo 700wx unable to make calls

Just activated an old Treo 700wx and I am able to use the internet but unable to make calls or receive text messages. Just ends the call right after it began. Tried hard reset, soft reset, re-activating... nothing.

I suggest you go to the HP - Palm web site and to the community forums there. You will see a thread how Syniverse, a subsidiary of Altel, ATT, Verizon, et. al changed their coding schemes and that the Palm Treo 700WX can't accomodate the new scheme. I contacted the CEO of Verizon Wireless and they fixed it for me only.

Nokia N95 How to print sms?

I am using Nokia N95 (not the Nokia N95 8g) My Sms (messages) are stored at the memory card. How do I print the messages?

Messages are not stored on the SIM card, but in the phone memory.
Unfortunately, the 3310 is a very old model that pre-dates PC-Connectivity so there isn't a method to copy the messages and install them to a newer model.

Handoff-Can make calls on Mac but cannot receive

Handoff worked at first, but after a while something happened and I can no longer receive calls on my MacPro (Late 2013) or my MacBook Pro (mid 2012), using iPhone 5S. I can make calls fine, but when calls come in, it makes no sound on the MacPro screen & there is no dialog box for me to answer.

Hello MarkCutler,
After reviewing your post, it sounds like the Mac is not receiving calls. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.
