whoa - someone was looking for this a couple weeks ago.

[garys11]

I am running 4.5.0.52 and I get NO sound for either Ringtone or Greeting Sound.
Yes, I did pay for it too....
Any Help Please.

We ran this in June:

Special Report Bonus Review: Fake Call

Many of you will love Fake Call & many of you will hate it. This clever BlackBerry application does a very good job of making the phone look & sound like it’s getting a call. You can set your incoming-call spoof screen to use any number & any name, specify any ring tone (custom or your standard) & even specify audio to play back when you push the “answer” button. Set a delay time, start its countdown & try to look surprised or annoyed when the ringtone sounds. Bottom line: if there are meetings you’d love to dodge & you can get away with that, this is a clever way to invite yourself to exit.

I will just excuse myself politely and walk away...

when you select the Test button for the ringtone you dont hear any sound either?

Same here. Running 4.5.0.56. Alltel 8130

No sound. Will vibrate.

When I select "Set Ringtone" there's a LONG pause and then it opens a page where there's supposed to be ringtones to choose from yet there's only 1 or 2 alarms. If I select "Set Ringtone" over and over and over again it'll finally populate the field with all the sounds on the device from alarms to notifications and then FINALLY to ringtones.

But, when I select one it will not let me hear it when I select "Test Ringtone" and it will not play it at the desired time. It does vibrate though at the set time. I too have paid for this. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! I really use this app a LOT!! TIA

Just tried the most recent version posted on your website, and I get a Java error. Any idea when a Storm compatible version will be available?

[bkr6891]

Just tried 1.0.8...same Java error. Hope it's fixed soon?!

[Smiley88]

we have updated our FakeCall app to work on the Storm.

OTA www.toysoft.ca/storm/FakeCall.jad

Note: this is not free. It is shareware.

Website Fake Call and purchase here.

new in the Storm version is you can set a fakecall from the Calendar app. Just create a new appt and put in the keyword [fakecall] and save then wait for the fakecall.

use the Green and Red buttons. the touch screen buttons does not work.
