I'm trying to use the native SIP function on my photon by adding SIP accounts in internet call settings menu. I can add the accounts and it says that it is registering fine but whenever I try to dial a number using a SIP account, the dialer FC's. This happens to both a pbxes.org account and my home freePBX server account. Is this happening to anyone else? I was able to use this function without a problem on the Evo 3D which I won't be going back to...
I'd rather not install SipDroid if I can just use androids native features instead.
Same issue here..have to use SIPDroid.

Also same problem ...havent tried puting SIPDroid back on....
I believe the dialer on this phone has some major issues. I am blaming it full on for the reboots that we are having. It seems to have issues with WIFI and it could be linked to the SIP issue. I think Moto did something to the dialer that screwed it up.
You can try groovip if you have a google voice number. It allows you to make voipcalls through 3g/4g/wifi.
Same with my wife's phone... I tried adding a sip account (from viopstunt) and it force closes as soon as the dialer launches. The phone is completely stock, never rooted. I know she has had at least 2 updates since we got it about a month ago. Gonna try sipdroid or something else and see. Mobile VOIP (the one from viopstunt) seems to work, but no voice when connectected.

While looking through the Astro file manager app, I came across the "Show process" feature under the Told menu. The first process to my surprise was a Phone app. Opening the app, it allows you to add SIP accounts for IP calling. I don't have a SIP account, but maybe it's time to figure out if there is a generic Internet service. I know T-Mobile has wi-fi calling, but I don't think those servers are publicly available.
Still not sure if there is a dialer or if your dependent on the app... If lucky it could be associated with contacts.
Not sure if this is going to differ much from a Skype number... If direct dial through contacts is possible, that would be interesting.
Sorry if this has been covered. I've been away and this was an interesting revelation to me.
Sounds interesting. I am still looking for a possibility to do phone calls with the device. Everything I tried using dialers or apk's from different devices failed. Is there actually a radio rom inside the flyer?
I didn't have the 3G version but is it not possible to receive and send SMS? Therefore you need also the phone api. And selfs if not so for I know handle this app also the data connections for a 3G connection.

Yes because we have also WiFi, Bluetooth, 3G, GPS,... but maybe it is possible one day to make calls. The Quesition is here if the Flyer have the hardware and not the software.
This was definitely interesting. So far I've been able to get the device to make and receive phone calls using Sipgate as my SIP provider, Sipdroid as the SIP client, and Google Voice as a forwarder. So it's definitely possible to use the Flyer as a phone using third-party software.
When I try using the same setup with this native phone app, however, the Flyer just instantly gets a "missed" call" notification. There's also no way to make any outgoing calls yet using this native app as far as I know. Anybody else have any luck?
I played with this for an hour or so with some public SIP gateways, but didn't have much luck. The contacts app doesn't seem to link directly with the phone app so a dialer app would still be required.
The best integration (with contacts) is GrooveIP which was suggested onthe forum earlier.
i have the rom
i have the rom
PHONE APP is possible according to this thread !!! ( I saw the video it really works)
But you need a S-OFF Flyer ofcourse
Any Way to make GrooveIP work on this tablet???
I would like to use some type of voip with this device. I need to be able to make calls if possible. Are there any hacks for this?
Sent from my HTC EVO View 4G Honeycomb Tablet, runing on the Now Network, (or my AT&T Home Router, lol).
It's working in Gingerbread
One of the first things I did, before HoneyComb OTA came out, was load my Google Voice app, from the market.
Then I loaded and opened Groove IP. I set it up to match up with my GV acct. and also set it up to load at device bootup.
The last thing was to go to my GV acct. via a browser and check the box to forward incoming calls to Google Chat.
Now I have incoming and outgoing call capability(when in a wifi connection).
I either use a headset or hold my ear to the bottom speaker(back of unit).
i didn't have any problems installing it. Works perfect synched up with GV
Groove IP has always worked perfectly for me on the Flyer, both GB and now HC Roms.
My View just says "Please try again." Then I get three beeps. Then the call discontinues.
What do I do?
Do you have Google voice installed? That is required
I have the rezound, as well as a Kindle Fire, and I installed Google Voice on them. I read through other threads, and no luck with my problem.
I have used Google Voice on my computer to call and text people, and with my upcoming trip to europe, it would be nice to use that to call people back home.
Problem, I have it installed on two devices, yet on both it doesn't give me the option to call, or even compose any sort of message at all. Any ideas on what I can do? The only options I get are refresh, settings, and search.
For me, when I'm in my inbox (or any other folder) I have a compose button on the bottom left. For calls, can you go into settings, Making calls, and change it to ask for all calls? Then use your dialer to place a call and it should prompt you.

click settings. the second option in the settings menu controls the ability to make calls via google voice. it is however done by dialing a forwarding service and therefore uses your minutes. it is not voip.

I pretty much use Google Voice as my primary mode of voice calling. You don't make a call through the app. Simply go to settings, and tell it to either use GV for every call, or ask it to prompt you at every call whether to call from your phone or to call from GV. Then when you simply dial as normal through the dialer app, it will either just use GV if you told it to, or ask you which to use.
BTW, All GV calling functionality is disabled on wifi tablets. I honestly have no experience with 3G/4G tablets, but on my Wifi Transformers I have to install a SIP client on the tablet and route GV calls to another VOIP service I use.

I'm a bit confused. I thought the only Google Voice calling solution was GrooveIP if you want to send and receive calls properly for your Google Voice phone number. GrooveIP does not use your minutes and is definitely VOIP.
On every device I tried it on, there is a bit of delay with GrooveIP, but the quality is good (good internet connection required, whether its 4G or strong 3G or WiFi.)
Can you please elaborate a bit? Are you just using Google Voice app, but its using your minutes?

When you use the google voice app, it dials into the google voice services which then forwards the call to the number you dialed. You get charged for the minutes during the call as a result. This also breaks free mobile to mobile calling.
GrooveIP is a 3rd party app that lets you connect to GV via VOIP so you don't have that forwarding call.
Use sipdroid with pbxs function. Tie it to Google voice, download Google voice callback, and presto. Have it on an old evo for my 8 year old daughter. She loves texting with Google voice. Makes her feel like a teenager. There is sometimes a slight echo, but completely usable.

This is exactly how I made voice calling possible with my GV number on my wifi tablet.
Anybody else having this issue? I'm getting an app crash when trying to switch carriers for voice mail from AT&T's to Google's. It was working perfectly fine with my S II.

On my Sprint SGS3, I wasn't able to set Google Voice as my voicemail on the phone itself. However, I went through the process as far as I could (within the Google Voice app), and then logged on to Google.com/Voice > Settings > click on "Deactivate Google voicemail on this phone". After that, re-enable Google Voicemail and you should be good to go.
Soon after that, the settings on the phone were greyed out and voicemails came in as expected.
Sorry if this isn't so clear! Time for bed and my brain isn't firing on all cylinders. Good luck.
It's not working for me either. Seems there's issues on Sprint and T-Mo too with the SGSIII and Google Voice. I hate using stock voicemail. Hope the next Google Voice update cures this.

while we're here, when someone leaves me a voicemail, it goes to my old phone that has the google voice app (it's still connected to wifi). it doesn't show up on my new phone though.
do i have to do something with my old phone to make it stop? or do i change some other settings?

bump?
i couldn't get this to work. the post wasn't very clear. did you go to google.com/voice on your phone or via website? i did via phone and don't see anywhere to "Deactivate Google voicemail on this phone". didn't see it via computer, either.
edit: so i found this via browser on my computer finally. reactivated and still no dice
I was only able to switch my VoiceMail provider from AT&T to GoogleVoice by using the dialcode listed @ voice.google.com (*004*<insertyourGVnumberhere>#), and it works, even though Dialer app settings still shows "My carrier" instead of "Google Voice" as the provider, and attempting to change it in the Dialer still says "Forwarding number change failed".
My problem now is that I can't for the life of me figure out where to change the timeout before it forwards to VoiceMail. I test-called from another phone and it rings for at least 60 seconds(!) before forwarding to GoogleVoice, instead of the 15 or so it used to be. Where do you change this, or can you?
Me too - luckily I saved the activate/deactivate google voice in my contacts list so was able to change the forwarding ok. Not sure if there's anyone at google that takes feedback on these kind of issues or not - but I haven't seen many things responded to on their feedback forums (like DST / calendar sync issues for the last few years with no fixes). Get what you pay for I guess.
Hello everyone,
I am rooted and locked runinng MOF 2.3.5 ish v2.0.
Yesterday AM I started receiving an error (unable to send text) when trying to send texts through GO SMS. I also received the same error when using the stock messaging app. Then I discovered I was also not receiving texts. I can send and receive texts through Google Voice. I integrated my Google number with Sprint several months ago. I had made no changes to Google voice settings, or my text settings in several months. This just came out of the blue.
I tried restoring a backup from Titanium, that did not work. I tried de-linking Google voice from my phone and that did not work. I uninstalled GO SMS- still nothing. I have since re-linked Google voice to my Sprint # as it is the only way I have of receiving my messages.
Today I called Sprint. After a few tests with no luck, they instructed me to accept the OTA 2.3.5 update. They claim that one of the issues fixed in this OTA update was a fix of this "known issue with SMS". I told them I did not want to do that because it would perma lock my boot loader. They also suggested having them de-link Google Voice from my Sprint #. They said that if they de-linked Google Voice, I would not be able to re-link Google voice to my number later and that was a "known issue" with Google.
So, I have 3 options...
1) Keep it as is until upgrade time, but of course Google Voice does not have MMS support. And Google Voice leaves a lot to be desired with SMS threading and customization.
2) Take the OTA upgrade and "hope" it solves my texting issue, but of course that opens another can of worms with the bootloader.
3) Have them de-link Google Voice and hope that works. However, I enjoy having one number when I travel, etc. And if it doesn't work, according to them I wont be able to re-sync and then I will not have any access to my texts.
Has anyone else ran into this issue? I didnt see the exact issue in a Google search.
Thanks in advance
I also use Google voice to manage/backup my voicemails and texts remotely. I hate the google voice app. I only use it in it rare situations where I have no signal and no roaming available, but have wifi.
This has happened to me a couple times, I'll notice my gvoice has texts that my phone never received via SMS.
What is your preffered network set to? I've noticed my prefered network mode changes mysteriously on this phone. I'll just set it back normal and all my missed sms come flooding in.

Thanks for the reply. I normally set to automatic. I just checked and it was changed to any cmda. I will play with the options and see if that helps. Thanks again.

Hello, it was on CDMA Auto (prl). What do you generally set yours on for domestic use?
Your answer got me thinking. Saturday afternoon I removed a sim card from another country because I was here in the us and didn't need it. So when I got home I put the sim card back in and switched network to automatic and then all my texts arrived. Thanks again :thumbup:
