Fake Call 2.3 (for Palm OS)
FakeCall will allow you to set up a fake phone call given a time delay and it will play any MIDI, wav/mp3/ogg/wma ringtone. Everything is authentic. Even the call screens are Phone look a like. When you answer the call, one of the four pre-defined greeting hello will be heard. You can also select any wav/mp3/ogg/wma as the hello greeting to make the fake call even more authentic. So when the next time you need to get out of a boring meeting, conversation or impress someone just remember to activate the fake call.

sodberg: does not work on my 680. un-compatibility with other program(s) i think
southwestroadboy: this is some rude software
littledrumz: it's asking for a registration code, where can i find it?
daanderson911: I just recently purchased this program, and so far, it promises to be useful. I have had it work with the ringer switch, as well as setting fakecall in my calendar. (Remember to turn the stardard alarm function of the calendar to OFF!) Anyhow, Not sure how to get the greeting to play, or anything like that, but I'm sure with a little effort, it will work fine. The screens could be a little prettier, and the program could work a little quicker, but all in all, for what I payed - Beautiful concept, execution, and design.
dondiego89: Program worked with the switch; tried using the datebook to activate it, didn't work.
mrcampbell06: I love this app..its all the chain. Now I dont hav to fake it like i use to. just put the phone to my ear. now i hav a ring and a greetin to go along with it
bfhouse: I don't know how to load a midi or other file for a ring tone... Couldn't it use my existing from alarms settings?
buckymarino: maybe everyone considering this application should try being a little more up front with people and not rely on any type of passive aggressive bs especially something this absurd
romy107: Had problems on my treo 650 - couldn't activate it via 2 hard keys or the calendar "fakecall" event. Not sure why.
khankoyott: So useful against annoyers. Helps to short a boring meeting.
The low price of this soft encourages to pay for it instead of cracking it.

- Fixed the problem not playing all MIDI and AMR ringtones
- Fixed the calling screens fonts more like the real phone screens
2.1 Changes
- Added new checkbox Support Calendar. If this is checked then Fakecall will search the Calendar database for the keyword "fakecall". If you hav 100's of appointments then the search make take a couple of minutes. To disable this feature just uncheck the checkbox.

1.3 Changes
- Added support for Hires version of the screens for Treo 650
1.2 Changes
- You can now set an appointment in the Calendar application to trigger
the Fake call. To do this just put the keyword "fakecall" in the appointment
time eg: if you want to activate the fake call at 11:30am then put the keyword
"fakecall
" as the description. Do not set an alarm for the appointment.
You will need to assign the ringtone for the first Key Activation in the ringtone screen.
Fake call will use the first ringtone in the Key Activation screen.
