[Q] Change default call handler? - HTC Droid DNA

Hey everyone,
I'm hoping there's a way to do this that I'm not seeing, but it's looking grim. I use Skype for all my calls and on my Nexus 4, I am able to set the phone dialer to dial out using Skype (it pops up and gives me the option to set a default when I make a call). I just got my DNA, and I want to do the same thing...but no option. Is this a Sense thing? Thanks in advance!

Can you not set it up through the internet call settings.

From what I understand, that's only for if you pay for SIP service (something with Skype Connect)...which I don't. I just use the app.
On the N4, the phone app gives me the option to dial out using Skype, or any other call-capable app like GrooVeIP.

Wrong.
You can use your existing number.
Just download Google voice and log in.
It will ask you to do sprint Google integration.
At work I don't have any service but we have Wi-Fi.
I text using Google voice and make calls using groove ip all on by sprint number over Wi-Fi..

Jellybean rom and I need to set up Google Voice properly! HELP!!

VVM doesnt work on the latest Jellybean roms. It keeps sending the SMS's letting me know I have voicemail then I have to call it to hear it. I installed Google Voice today and had to call Sprint to remove it because everytime someone called it would force me to listen to the message telling me who is calling then pressing #1 on the touch pad to answer the call. I hate it! I could not figure out how to turn the option off! If someone can show me how to remove that option I would love to use it. Thx
You have to go and log into your Google voice account from a webpage, then go to the calls tab, then turn off call screening

Had no idea that worked on a call by call basis...
What i was really looking for was the option that is normally found in the call settings, additional settings option... Seems to be missing on the dna?

Never noticed that option on other phones.

Built in call blocker?

So I keep getting calls from this number that just seems to call even though I told them they have the wrong number. Some McDonald's that thinks I manufacturer the ice machine. They called 6 times in 10 mins. So has anyone used this call blocked that is built in our phones. I want to know if it works. I don't want to even see an incoming call on my screen or a voice mail notification if they call. Is this possible? If anyone has used this feature before could you explain how it works and your personal experience with it.
Thanks

You can log in to your Verizon account online and block numbers. Only lasts 3 months though, then you have to redo it.

Better yet just add the number as a contact and then there is an option to block all calls from that number.

Connect call time?

Has anyone else noticed or experienced unusually long call connect time? No matter what method I use to place a call (swipe, enter number directly, ect...) it takes 15-20 seconds before I can hear the phine start ringing. I'm on mj4 stock rooted with mj4 baseband. Any input is appreciated.

Bump. Anyone had this issue? Mine is continuous.

Do you use Google voice and merged your number? This issue happens to me when my Google voice and Sprint number is linked. It also happens for incoming calls too, where when I pick up on the first ring, the caller says they waited 6 rings or more. I temporarily unlinked my numbers, and got instant results

yes, I use Google. Thanks for the head up, I'll try unlinking
