UPDATE IN RED

Come one, come all folks.  Now is your chance to become popular with the Touchmods team and chance to win a FREE Touchmods Mic or Touchmods headset. 

 That’s right.  You heard me right.  You too could be one of the lucky winners.  

The Touchmods team is looking for some very special coders.  

They will be giving away a Touchmods Headset and two Touchmods Microphones for the best 3 coders.

There is no catch, it is for free.  The only thing you need to do is to download the source-code of the previous SIP-VoIP app and implement any of their requested features.

 You will need to act fast though.  This offer is only good until the end of april.

Here are some of the featured items that are wanted:

- internal Touch Buzzer Control (Andreas?)
- optimization of a compression algorithm in order to save bandwidth (ASM coders?)
- link to the internal Calendar (we have the API, thnx Metabaron)
- circular buffers for Incoming, Ougoing, Missed calls
- implementing similar trick to the “iClarified Volume Boost” hack
- “Disconnecting” button Label similar to “Connecting”
- R+L channels both active (Samuel?)
- using other Speech Codecs (with lower bandwidth needed)
- running two providers at the same time (one for receiving, and one for initiatin’ calls)
- GUI-based volume control inside the VoIP app
- iPhone internal Mic input

If you have any questions regarding the contest, feel free to contact me using my contact form or leave a comment.

The Touchmods announced the release of their latest software.  SIP-VoIP version 1.2

Some of the added improvements are:

•  Running in the background.  Basically means that it will run all the time so that you can receive calls at anytime.  You will have to manually quit from within the application if you want to shut it down.  
•  Want a ringtone.  Well, add your own.  New support for .mp3 files.  
•   Solved saving problems with new file location
•   More pics in the skins

If you want to to find out more about this, head over to the Touchmods site for the latest or if you have any questions.  

 You can download this over at the Touchmods site or you should be able to add via Installer.

Enjoy

The Touchmods team is now giving you the opportunity to, as they say “Hack the Hack”. Quite an interesting terminology however, oh so, appropriate.

Coming soon to the Touchmods repository, you will find a very interesting item.

The surprice is NOT that the App is free and open for all providers, but Samuel did implement a little trick that will disable the SW after using it for two weeks.

Ok folks, it’s time to break out your treasure hunting tools. If you can figure out how to rearrange a couple of certain numbers you can stop the deadline of using the software.
Word is also, that if someone just so happens to post the answer up over there. The post will be left for everyone to see. Educational purposes you know.
