Hole Puncher for the BB10 sim dialer: 

Use the hole puncher to punch a square hole in your sim card, place the BB10 sim dialer so that the hole on the sim card is lined up with the square IC chip on the sim dialer, and press firmly to lock in the BB10 sim dialer. Place the sim card with BB10 sim dialer back in the sim slot.

Question: What is auto pick up LCR and what sim dialer version has this feature. Can you give me a scenario?

Answer: The BB09, V700 and V500LG has the auto pick up LCR feature which means Low Cost Routing. Whthis means, you can  set up 2 access numbers, and set up different dial rules for the each
access number. After that, the dialer will automatically pick up a Least Cost Routing according to your dialing rules. Here is the scenario:

Let's say your long distance numbers starting with 0xxxx
and International long distance calls start with 00xxx

Suppose you want to let National numbers 0xxxx to go through access 1 and
00xxxx numbers to go through access 2. Then you can set the dialer in this way:

Set 2 access numbers:
set dial plan-> Catch PRX for acc 1 = 0
Set dial plan-> Catch PRX for Acc 2 = 00

Then ok. Dialer will select acc 1 when you dial 0xxxx  and it will select acc
2 if you dial 00xxxx

1.Mode - "Call Through";
2. Access Number - 0731760000;
3. Delay after the access number - 6 sec;
4. Prefixes for "Call Through" mode - "2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or 6 or 7 or 8 or 9";
5. Prefixes to be bypassed - 1,411 , 611 , 911;
6. "#" sign on the end of the phone destination number;

You can set the V300 in this way:

MOde=ICC1#  (callthrough with # after destination number)

Number1 = 16462894296

dialing speed = slow 2 (that will make 6 seconds after access number)

Dial set: use dialer=> limited => 2#3#4#5#6#7#8#9#

          Not use dialer =>1#411#611#911#

# as ending code,no need to set,because select ICC1# mode.

Question: 1) First IVR (Please enter you pin number followed with the # key) ELIMINATED
2) Second IVR (You have $10 remainning, as credit) ENABLED
3) Third IVR (Please enter your destination number followed with the # key) ELIMINATED
4) Fourth IVR (You have 240 minutes on this call) ENABLED

Answer: Ykep recommends the V700  for settings 1, 2 and 3. For Option 4. Users won't hear the IVR, but the call with still connect and they will hear your voice recording.

Question: What will I have access to with Remote Access of the V400RS?

Answer: you can change access number,modes,dial plan,speed,and STK PIN by SMS commands

Question: I don't need a pin for my service provider but the Pin field is asking for minimum character of 1.

Answer: Please enter ###### to clear, then press ok

Pennytel Users' Wish List:

Scenario 1
Setup Access number 7777
We dial phone number 123456
Dialer captures number 123456
Dialer sends out the following 7777 Pause 123456#

Scenario 2
Setup Access number 7777
We dial phone number #123456
Dialer drops the prefix # and then just dials the number direct 123456



Scenario 3
Enough space on the dialer to have a list of complete phone numbers to exclude 100+ characters, patterns in our case are not good enough, we need to have full patterns. No need for any other functions with PennyTel. With PennySIM there is no need for any second access number.

Wish Granted!

Question:

I think PennyTel are selling a lot of phones now and offer software based dialing but if they could sell a phone with a custom dialer with their configuration setup it would be a big seller. We would be talking in many thousands. www.pennysim.com.au is where they are selling the phones to the public. Their phone is the same as one I have using BB09.

The main issues is the instructions are unclear and don’t talk in the same terms as PennyTel use. There are a lot of features that are just not used, 80% at least could be removed.

The only scenario that is use is as follows.

Enter access number 0289898800 in setup

Enter a list of Bypass numbers

You dial the phone number eg 0312345678 the Dialer then dials access number, waits about 1 second then sends the dialled number then a #

Sample of the above 0289898800p0312345678#

If on the Bypass number list then obviously the number is passed straight through not using the access number so would be 0312345678 direct no dialer interference.

The only other option that you would then consider if you did not have enough numbers in the expanded Bypass list would be a Suffix or prefix like * to activate bypass eg dial 0312345678* and the dialer sends the number 0312345678 out directly dropping the * the V240 seems to have issues with that here in Australia with mobile numbers only.

Anyway if we get something working for Windows Mobile and work out what is causing the bad behaviour it might be worth looking at something along those lines.

Answer: Hello Ian, our staff and engineer had a discussion at length about the dialing needs for Pennytel users. We think that if Pennytel users set up Catch prefix and Bypass list s properly, that all versions of our dialers will the requirements.  If not, we  we will design a new version  and add a bypass list field for about 100digits.

For the BB09 we think you can do this:

  Suppose you set in bypass field 0312345678*0312345679*0313*0314*0412*

Then all numbers in this format will be bypassed:

 0312345678xxxxx

0312345679xxxx

0313xxxxxxxxxx

0314xxxxxxxxxx

0412xxxxxxxxxx

Is 100digits enough?

If not enough then you can set any digits in bypass field to acitvate bypass manually.

For Example:

set 77 in bypass list and set removal prefix 77 at same time. Then users dial 77+ any number will be  bypassed.

The V300 & V400 will bypass any number manually by dialing *#xxxxxxxxxxxxxx. These 2 versions will work with Windows Mobile

Meanwhile, let me knoe if 100 digits is enough. 

The Ykep’s new V700 sim dialer’s SMS callback feature works in this way:

1. First the users’ callback systems should provide SMS callback access number for users.

Then users can set in the following way:

1. Set Access 1 = #* SMS access number

2. Regular settings as the BB09 sim dialer

Now the SMS mode will work when users dial a number for example 0012059160021, the V700 will hang up this call and send an SMS to the SMS access number.

SMS format like:  "Skype GW:0012059160021 "

So their system should read the destination number from second part of the SMS content

After the system has received the SMS which includes destination number, it will connect both the caller's number and destination number at same time.

Finally the call is connected.

Question: I might need some help to go further with the BB09 - I've tried everything and every combination I can think of, but it doesn't
answer the callback.

It goes right through the sequence:-

1. accepts number to be dialled
2. rings the callback number
3.  gets "busy" tone, hangs up (this depends on whether I use Pennytel's or Maxotel's callback as to whether it hangs up or hands on
the "busy" until the callback arrives)
4. BUT, when the callback calls back it does not answer the callback - I think it did ONCE, out of dozens of tries, but I can't
replicate the condition that worked - might have been a fluke.
5. I've tried pressing accept when the callback arrives but that totally confuses the BB09.

I find the BB09 user manual a bit hard to follow as it's cryptic and does not differentiate very well or consistently between what
the user does for themselves and what the BB09 automatically does for the user. So I'm uncertain on the procedure, given that I
can't get it to work.

I've tried all modes - 1, 2, 3 & 4
I've tried with and without the "#" ending code.
I've tried with "access delay" 01 and 00 - although I've haven't a clue as to how this might or mightn't apply to callback mode.
I've check that access number 1 & 2 both have ** preceding their respective callback numbers.
I've tried other things which I've forgotten about.

I have heard reports that yoursimdialer works okay on a Samsung A412.  This is exactly the same phone as the A411 - the only
difference being that the A411 is the Telstra locked pre-paid version and the A412 is post-paid (in either locked or unlocked form).

I don't like technology getting the better of me - but I'm out of ideas.

Any suggestions/comments on the above ?

Answer: Hello Graeme, sim dialers don't automatically answer when the callback is ringing, users need to press accept to answer the call

Then the sim dialer will send out the dialed number and add # as ending code.

When used for callthrough, the sim dialer will automatically finish all steps, i.e. dial access number, pause, dial PIN, dial destination number and add # as ending code. (all done by sim dialer) this is very useful for calling cards or callthrough services.

However, when used for callback, users need to hang up after sim dialer dials to callback access number and answer the callback manually when system callback.  (Sim dialer can dial access number automatically,dial out the dialed number and add # automatically) This is  called semi-automatic

The sim technology is not yet able to auto hang up and auto pick up to answer the callback.

I want to set +44 but it keeps reverting to #44 has anybody managed to get the + symbol to stay in place?

Answer: With the BB09 SIM dialer, by default the + symbol is ignored and treated as a blank, therefore any number starting with + will match a blank dial plan (you can make a field blank by entering six hashes (#) and saving).

So if you want to send numbers starting with +44 to the dialer, you just put 44 in the particular Dial Plan; and if you want to bypass numbers starting with +61, you put 61 in the Bypass Prefix field.

Question: Does anyone know if it's possible with the A412 to automatically add a prefix and a suffix to the number being called.

Answer: Have a look at the following site. I have one of these and have trialled it in an A412 with a Pennysim (Optus network) and a '3' network sim and it works perfectly. Works for Pennysim ANIcallback and pilot number. It is transparent to the user after it is programmed (very simple)

Note, the card accepts two accounts but you must set up a dialling plan for each account, again very simple. The instructions are available for download from the web site link below. If you don't set up a dialplan the call will go through without the prefix and suffix. (EDIT- without the prefix and suffix being added by the dialler)

The best US$12 I have spent in a while, arrived in around 8-9 days.

NOTE. While the BB9 is advertised for the Blackberry this is the unit I tested in the A412.

Question:  Hello,
I´ve an import question for the "V500" (LG or GSM), "V600" or "G3-09" concerning the nu,mber format. Lot of customers use for calls the format "+49" (f.e. for a ´fixed number in munich/germany +498944456656). If the SIm-dialer is switched on all the calls with the format "+49xx" will be automatically routet.
If I put "+49" as "bypass-prefix" (for not routing numbers with "+49xx") it changes to "#49" instead of "+49". Do you have a solution for that:
1) not routing +49-numbers or
2) automatically changing numbers in the phone book from "+49xxx" into "0049xxx" ?

Answer: now only our V400/600 has a function to convert + to 00 . You can go to Add code menu and activate or inactivate this function

Sim dialers can do this when users dial +49xxxx, then sim dialer will convert to 0049xxxx

If you set +49 in allow menu in dial set, then all numbers starting with +49 will be routed to your calling card’s system.

If you put  +49 as bypass prefix, all numbers will not be routed to your calling cards system. It will go directly by local networks. The V400/600 dialers cannot change +49 to #49 in this case. Because sim dialers do not work at all then dial a bypass prefix.The G3-09 works on a different menu. V500LG as a feature to remove prefix,but not replace prefix features.example,V500LG can set to remove + or remove 00 or any other prefix from international numbers. If you put  +49 as bypass in limited menu, then sim dialers will not work when youdial +49

Question: Would are really important questiona is would be 1) how we could create a combinated "CallThr"/"CallB"- mode that autom. can recognize if the the user is in Germany or stay abroud/international for
automatically chnging between CallThrough and CallBack. I used software-solutions for Smybian Series 60, that cauld read-out this information by the Symbian-Operation-System and the GSM-Network-Information. I don´t know if it could work with a sim-dialer too.
2) Is it possible to use a Dual-Sim-Adapter togehter with your SIM-dialers togehter. Would the user then get 2 Menus (one for the Dual-Sim, and one for the Sim-Dialers) or what would happen ? It would be be important to support or build a dialer/Dual-SIM-solution. Seb.

Answer:

For the V500GSM sim dialer, you can set up to 3 access numbers . All settings are done in the Advance menu which needs a security PIN. Users cannot enter Advance menu, and therefore cannot edit anything. What they can do is switch between service 1,service 2 or service 3 in main menu.

I think the solution for you is the following: you can configure mode+access number in Advance menu.

1. Go to Advance->number-> New(first location)-> enter mode and access number in a string: #2#AccessNo1

2.Go to Advance->number-> New(second location)-> enter mode and access number in a string: #8#AccessNo2

Explanation: In this setting,you can set access number 1 and 2 with different access numbers or you can also set same access numbers in 2 locations.  #2# stands for ICC1# (callthrough mode), and #8# stands for CB1( callback mode) . These working modes are combined to access number 1 and access number 2. When users switch from access number 1 to access number 2,the working modes are changed automatically.

3.When users are in Germany,they just use service 1 (callthrough) in default. When they go abroad, they can enter main menu,go to Number,select Service 2, so that to switch to access number2. (By this selection,the Working mode also changes to callback mode)

About Dual sim adaptor. You can use at the same time with sim dialers ,but 99.999% of phones only provide one STK menu interface. So your mobile phone will only display STK menu per sim dialer. We cannot show your dual sim adaptor at same time. I think the dual sim adaptor is too thick. Maybe you can use 6in1 GSM sims. To copy more SIM cards information into one 6in1 sim. This 6in1 sim is same size to norlmal GSM sim.

Send me your email address, I will send you the specs on the 6in1 sim.

Question: Our remote users need to login to main office sip server through their mobile phones. I need to know if your product can be used to this purpose. Users need to login to main SIP server using server IP address and register their phone and make calls. Please let me know which of your product support IP based SIP server login though mobile phone using GPRS, WiFi, UMTS, CDMA, 3G.

Answer: We are in the process of developing this software. This is the information for potenetial buyers so far:

 1. When we complete the sip software dialer, you will be able to download it  from webpage or we will send it by email.

Question: Will your dialers work with my Optus Prepaid Divert System?

"Ideally the Your sim dialer would need to prepend the pilot number plus a pause to a number from the SIM , Phone book or keypad, append # to the number called.
"

"eg. 0289898800p1234567890#"

Answer: Hello Max, I just read your dialing rules for the Optus Prepaid Divert System. '0289898800' is your access number and '1234567890' is the number that you will dial from your contact list or call history.

With the BB09 (with unlock feature), Y09 (with unlock feature),V400, V300, V600 (with unlock feature for the iphone), there is an option/mode in the STK menu called ICC1#. The ICC1# is designed to dial this way: Dial access number,pause,dial destiantion number#.

The pause after the pilot number is automatic in all modes. All you would set in the ICC1 mode in the STK menu is the pilot number and the dialer will do the rest.

Remember, if your phone is locked you will need either the BB09, Y09 or V600 (iphone only).

The BB09 have been tested successfully on the following non-blacberry models:

Nokia 6085/1650/E71,

Kp100,

LG TG800F,

Motorola V360,

Siemens M55,

 NOKIA E51

Question: As a provider - How is the billing implemented and processed when using this SIM internationally?

Answer: There is no need to change your billing system when using our SIM dialer. Sim dialers cannot reduce or add on to your calling ratee, meaning sim dialer cannot change your calling rate. W Only thing a  sim dialer can help a user or provider to do  is to dial access number  and PINautomatically.

The BB09 tested successfully here in Canada on the Fido Network:

Blackberry 8820

Nokia 5610

Motorola KRZRK1

Thanks, Ahmad

All the same features of the V500 with pin protection and pin option:

See user manual: V500 user manual

See key features: V500 key features

Here is an email with some advice I sent someone who had the V300 dialer.  I'd recommend the V400 just because you'll be able to get 3G data speeds if your phone supports it.  The Y09 works good too.

I'm not sure what latency would be like on the Link2VoIP network if you're calling from Ontario.  Yak might be better in that case.  And while Link2VoIP offers a callback service, Yak offers both dial through and callback services (dial through would be preferred if you have My5): http://www.yak.ca/product/yak-cell/how-it-works

Anyway, there are a ton of callback or calling card services out there targeted to cell phone users, most of which are garbage (high latency, echo, etc.).  These are the ones I've been happy with (and there are additional benefits to Yak and Link2VoIP:  you can use your Link2VoIP account with a VoIP ATA like my Linksys SPA-3102 to give yourself home phone service, or you can switch your existing landline long distance over to Yak).

If you've got My5 one other option available to you is a conventional calling card.  You can find the best ones here, but again, you might end up with spurious call quality with some of them: http://thephonecardstore.ca/(0pdwx555jp0vvmu5usdhct2d)/index.aspx

Question: How do I find the stk menu on the iphone and which dialer should I order?

Answer: To find the STK Menu on the Iphone, select Settings, Phone, SIM Application. see below for the imag. You should order the G3-09 sim dialer for the iphone

Question: If all I want to do is unlock the blackberry, will the BB09 work?

Answer: Absolutely, the BB09 sim dialer with unlock feature will unlock your blacberry. You don't have to use the auto dialing feature.

Answer: Set the V300 Sim Dialer as follows:

Question: Will the Y09 Sim dialer work on unlocked phones?

Answer: Absolutely, the Y09 Sim Dialer can be used on locked and unlocked phones.

After weeks of research and testing, we have released the Y09 sim dialer for locked GSM Phones. We've combined our universal sim unlocker with the ip sim dialer and created the Y09. We'll be sending samples to Canada and Europe to our vendors for testing. Stay Tuned!

Thanks so much Art! Now I perfectly understand all the functionality of the V300 card. It's a pleasure to use it and it saves me quite a lot of money because I can now easily make calls e.g. to the USA, Singapur and India from my cell phone from everywhere in Germany. With this solution it's very comfortable.

Thanks again for your great and friendly support!

Hello Ingrid, I have tested the IP Sim Dialer with some Symbian phones 6120 & 6630 and it works perfectly! thanks, Menno.

Success at last….the cell phone worked very good and when I had to add minutes, it was effortlessness….Cellular Aboard is a company that works.

 Thank you for sending me another version of your SIM-Dialler. I put it into my iPhone 3G, and - after a restart – I got GSM signal!

This is the first version that actually works in an iPhone. Thank you!

 Now I have some questions about the current iPhone SIM-Dialler:

-          I know the difference between Cont.Call, Call-Back and Call-Through. But what is the difference between number 1, 2, 3 and 4?

The different mode is for different model of mobile,For example,If the mode 1 won't work for some model,you can try mode 2 or 3,It may can work for this model.

-          Pause in the service number. A * is a 3 seconds pause. This is extremely long. For a future version please have this shorter. I f it was 1 second, it would work also, if that’s to fast then he can use more then one *. Just like the commas in a modem dial string.

For the pause,The time can be setting inside"speed". "0-9"can be setting in there,"0" is no pause."1" is for 1×3 seconds pause."2" is for 2×3seconds pause.

-          Add Code:

o        I understand ‘Add 00 for +’ but what is the idea for the others?

o        ‘Add 0 for Mobile ’. How do you define ‘ Mobile ’ and why should one add an extra 0 just for that?

       It only used in china,not useful for other countries.

o        ‘Add Code for Tel>’. A Code 020 is predefined. What is the Idea of this?

o        ‘Add # for +’ is described in the Manual. But this makes no sense for me.

The above two are customized for part of customers needs,If you don't like it,you  don't active these function.

Currently I can use the SIM-Dialler to prefix any number with the access code for our PBX followed by *0 to call any destination for free or low cost by means of using the resources in our enterprise. But I cannot call an internal number. At least, not without first change to another ‘Service number’ which is the same but without the *0.

Whit the current version, I can at least use it in some niche applications. Can you make for me  the option to have the name customized and the password changeable or at least set it as we like it?

Yes,We can customize for you.Show your name on the standby-screen.Change the password and set predefined your access code.

I have future recommandation for dialer sim ip :

If user can config interval time or days  when dialersim is in OFF 
mode because user have unlimeted call option whith provider like 
evening and night or weekend.

This is my recommandation.

Thanks for this excelent dialersim IP, no problem after 5days for use 
and test

Question: I am travelling to Europe and I would like to make and receive calls without having to pay roaming charges, any suggestions?

Answer: Yes absolutely. Go to www.cellularabroad.com.  Their rates a very low and you receive calls free. Their system also allow you to send and receive text messages. You can either purchase a ready to go phone, or if you already own an unlocked quad band phone, all you need to purchase is one of their sim cards. Relaoding the card is very simple, if you are abroad, they provide you with a toll free number that you call from a landline and it will only take a few minutes to reload. It's the best deal around.

Question: can you point me in the right direction on how to program the v400. the documentation is hard to decode. What i need is to enter a pin code followed by a # then dial the number after.

EX. access number, PIN, #, number to dial

Can you help me out. Thanks

Answer: Please send me your dialing rules so I can send you specific instructions.

Question: Dialing Rule:

Access number->PIN->#->number

I am using ICC2# which works fine if i do not use any PIN. My access number is programed as:

5474763532p1602

but it dosen't work.

Answer: Please use * for the pause function for the V400. Please keep me updated

Also, please try

1. first install SIM dialer into your mobile phone,just put V200 over your SIM and insert both into mobile phone SIM slot
2. Find STK menu in your mobile phone
3. See Mode, Number, Speed, Dial-set and Add code
4. Enter Mode, select ICC1#
5. does your switch need a # as ending code after destination number?
6. If so, then ICC1# is correct, next step, select Number
7. Select New. Enter your access number, press ok to confirm and exit
8. go to next item, Dial-set, this is for setting dial plan
9. you can set which prefix codes should be routed to your IVR system

1. set your prefix like this: 00#0#1 in limit, if you like all numbers to be routed to your switch just select unlimited
2. enter dial-set=>use dialer=>unlimited

Question: What Sim Dialer do you recommend for Canada.

Answer: We have had some customers in Canada who have has success with the V200 and V250, however we recommend the V300, since this has worked with all Providers there. The V200 has basic prompts, the V300 does require a few more prompts, but users are very happy with its reatures.
