How To enable built-in VoIP functionality in X500 and M700

Until recent time I did not know that WM6 has built-in VoIP functionality and it can be enabled on my Glofiish X500. I am using it now for a couple of days and it's great, I can use it over WiFi network and can call lots of countries for free with quality better than SkypeOut can do on this device.

What will you need:

  1. X500 with WM6 installed
  2. VoIP patch (Thank you xda-developers!)
  3. SIP config Tool
  4. Switch (to make your VoIP voice come out on the front speaker and not loud on the back one)
Install all above programs, launch SIP Config Tool and enter your VoIP account info (if you do not have a VoIP account, get one here: internetcalls.com )

Once this is configured you will see a new icon on your home screen with blue phone and green antenna and the name of your VoiP account. It can read 'No Service', 'Available' or 'Connected'. When it is in connected state all your outgoing phone calls will go through VoIP! I saved huge amount already calling to all the differnet countries, and internetcalls even offers calls to a list of countries for free. Bye-bye Skype!
