http://www.freeswitch.org/
They just announced on the 24th that they have it running on the N800. Download is here: http://www.freeswitch.org/downloads/n800/ Quote:
Anyone with an N770 want to see if it works on that one? |

Re: FreeSWITCH works on N800
This is in the README on the download page :
untar from / to create /opt/freeswitch optionally edit files in /opt/freeswitch/conf run /opt/freeswitch/bin/freeswitch This means you need : - the xerm console - to be root - to know how to change directories, use the 'tar' command, edit files and run programs from the command line In other words, it's not a regular Maemo end-user package (yet). |
Re: FreeSWITCH works on N800
Well I'm sure someone with a better knowledge of Maemo and programming than myself can create a Hildonized front-end softphone for it.
While Gizmo is very nice indeed, I'd like something that can connect to OTHER VoIP services perferrably all at the same time. |
Re: FreeSWITCH works on N800
Next step is to create proper debs and get them on one of the repositories, we should be working on that soon. Also note that by default, we have a little embedded web server and a web page that you can go to to control it. Somone contributing a proper gui would be great.

Re: FreeSWITCH works on N800
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I was thinking..
If FreeSWITCH has a module that can convert from Jingle to SIP, then it would be possible that if that module is ported to the N800, FreeSWITCH would be configured to connect to any SIP service provider and also to Google Talk, and then, the Nokia N800 built-in Gtalk client would be used to call using that SIP service, using FreeSWITCH as a gateway... This would solve the problem that the N800 is lacking a true SIP client. Hope this is still active because it would be very useful if it is able to do this! |
Re: FreeSWITCH works on N800
Can FreeSWITCH act in a similar fashion to Truphone for Symbian phones. i.e. permit the routing of phone calls from the N800 via WiFi Broadband SIP VoIP capable router and so be an alternative to Gizmo Project, Skype, etc.
In other words, to allow the N800 to make 'normal' calls – albeit via a SIP VoIP service provider - in the same way as it is used to make Gizmo Project type Internet calls. Also, can this be made a two way process whereby the N800 can receive calls made to my SIP number and the geographic numbers given to me by my VoIP service provider? Truphone responded to my enquiry to say that they have no plans to support the N800 so I wonder if FreeSWITCH might provide the solution. |
Re: FreeSWITCH works on N800
Well, I "installed" this.
Running ./freeswitch does not seem to work. Complains about a missing library. How do you really install and run this? I can't find any docs. |
Re: FreeSWITCH works on N800
You might notice this is an old thread; you probably need to be running OS2007 or do a lot of work to make this happen. And one of the big gains discussed above is neutralized with the SIP support in OS2008...

Re: FreeSWITCH works on N800
I'd like to use it as a voicemail server. The version I installed is only a few days old. Should run on 2008 (according to the file dates on the ftp server anyways).
