I've given up on trying T38 because there is no universal support for it...
Can someone recommend another way of faxing without using T38?

does anybody know a good tutorial on how to setup asterisk to receive faxes
(no need to send them) ? i've tried using "app_fax.so" with T38 but i keep
getting "Transmission failed"

You are "Running before you learn to walk"!  You can't make T.38 work
(that's ok, most other folks can't either) but you want a free faxing
solution that does multiple channels.  Get the Free license and make that
work, then pay Digium the $10 (or whatever it is) for the ports you think
you need once the darn thing works.
