Hi,
This is a cool app. Thanks a lot. I created a rule which says for numbers starting with +44, use access number xxx-yyx-zzzz . But, I also noticed that it creates entries for numbers not starting with +44 , for eg I have lots of local numbers stored which are like 408-xxx-zzzz, and it shows an option to call these with ViCar. Is it possible to make it show the option only for numbers with +44 in the beginning ie international numbers ?

Great app. Very useful!
Just some questions: I don't see on how do configure the pause before sending the DTMF tones? In my case it seems the tones are sent to early, so they are not detected correctly. Where are the VICaR settings stored? Is it possible to play the DTMF tones faster?
Thanks
Unfortunately it is not possible to send the DTMF tones any faster. Vicar uses standard telepathy function to send these tones and there is not much control beyond sending the number

I successfully used the VICar app for several months. Now Nokia had to replace my device because of a hardware failure. So I had to reinstall the app.
The problem is now that the app does not detect the other party (the call router) answering the call. The dial tones are never sent. I found out that the dial tones are sent as soon as I put the call on hold and take it back. So it seems that the initial "answering message" (answering the call) is not catched correctly.
The rest works as expected: Intercepting the original call and dialing the number of the call router.
Anybody else with this problem? Is there a way to debug?
(I use firmware 1.3, same as before)

Vicar daemon monitors for a Dbus signal "AudioConnected" which is generally sent when your call router's automated system picks up your call. Probably this signal is never sent in your case.
For troubleshooting. Launch terminal as user
Code:
$killall vicar-daemon $/opt/vicar/bin/vicar-daemon > vicar.log& $dbus-monitor --system > dbuslog.txt
