we recently found out that ics allows native voip calling, which is awesome if you want to save craploads of money. but did anyone here ever manage to get it working? the problem is that i hear nothing, the receiver can hear me just fine.

it's so weird because all third party clients i tried work flawlessly, csipsimple for instance. this app in particular is really, really nice, but it muddles ics with that gingerbread look, i'd prefer the native client if it only worked. so there must be something im doing wrong. but what? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hash_Map:
It could be a lot of things that have been setup wrongly or your voip provider doesn't allow it.

For me, I have it working perfectly on gnex. The provider I am using is poivy (poivy.com).

They provide details of how to setup their service in voip capable devices. I simply copied the values from the info page they provided and was able to make it work after some failed attempts.

I found that there is a tricky part in process where you have to setup the Optional Settings in the SIP Account Details. I had to enter the Authentication username. Its simply your user name as you entered it in the Username field in the same settings page above the Optional Settings. Its seems odd to have the user name entered twice but that did for me.

If all fails, try setting up an account at poivy.com, they give you free calls to US numbers. That would iron out that your provider doesn't allow you to setup a voip on something other than the software they provide.

Let me know if u need more details or help...

im mostly using wifi so the provider can go screw itself, but i tested it outside the building with csipsimple and luckily it works, phew. its only this google thing that i could never get to work ... i mean the data is fine, it finds my account and the call goes through, but its of no use since the receiver does not hear a thing, i hear him though. i researched before and overread something about "it uses the wrong mic" and there was talk about a fix, but i couldn't find something concrete.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BinkXDA:
I use this and it works, but it’s a very bare-bones SIP client and doesn’t implement the SIP standards as well as other SIP clients. I hope Google pays attention to this feature and makes it more robust going forward.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hash_Map:
I see, at least its not totally broken lol. Which version of ICS you are running? I am on 4.03 (Custom rom, Roman's AOKP M4) and have tested it with two sip accounts and it works just fine...

let me know if you need anything else.

cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
im on aokp b28. i tried it with two handsets, nexus & s2. speaking works, the call receiver hears, but i get nothing back, i hear nothing. i tried it with intervoip and voipcheap. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JosepiOT:
Try speaker mode, screen off could be trimming back your throughput
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
well, as it turns out nothing works anymore from today on, not even csipsimple, which always did work fine. in my frustration i downloaded a crappy looking client from the providers webpage that gives me forceclosures every now and then, but that one does the job somehow. maybe they changed something in the protocol or something, who knows. still, thank you all so much!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EP2008:
I just purchased the VoIP service from VoIP.ms and it works flawlessly with the built-in sip feature on my galaxy nexus.

If Dell Voice worked with my Bluetooth headset, I would have stuck with it, but VoIP.ms is working so well, a few bucks a month is worth the extra features and built-in stability.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
maybe it has somthing to do with how my wifi is configured but whatever i tried i couldnt get it to work. very strange.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EP2008:
Sometimes firewalls will block the ports needed for voip. Have you tried on a different wireless network or your data plan?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
it works with 3rd party apps, well, one worked, the app from the provider itself. i think i blew a couple of bucks already with all the trying, i'll just pass on this. it would be nice to use the native ics feature but i don't see what im doing wrong there. the account-data is right, the connection is made, i hear the receiver but he cant hear me. i tried it with two phones under two wifi configs and it never changed. im starting to think maybe its the voip provider wanting to push its own app, maybe they made something to prevent other apps from working properly. not even csipsimple worked although i never had problems with it on other providers. but this one is so damn good for mobile connections, calls here cost normaly 20-25 cent/min, now im paying 2 ... so i'll take the ugly gingerbread plugin for now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eman3316@optonline.net:
Is there a difference when using the Native ICS VOIP or something like GrooveIP?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] times_infinity:
I use my Inc 2 as pseudo landline with SIP calling. Google Voice and PBXes is how I did it. Really simple actually since you can have sipdroid make a gtalk truck with your Google voice. Everything else that needs to be done is the trunk password needs to be your Google password and you need to setup inbound and outbound routing to the proper extension. Then setup internet calling to point to your pbxes account and make sure it connects. And inbound and outbound calling to and from your Google voice number works just as if it were an activated phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kevjef420:
Just wondering. I have been using native SIP function on my SGS2 with voip.ms service as well. I am running a modded AOSP version of ICS and I noticed if I set to keep alive I find the battery drains heavy. Like 8%/hour with no use. This is the only way to ensure I have no missed calls. In battery stats it shows that Android OS is the culprit.

Are you finding that your battery drains faster also?

When I use Dell Voice I have no battery drain issues at all.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BinkXDA:
I don’t have this issue using the stock ROM on the GN—and I always send keep-alives 24/7. That said, I tend to be near Wi-Fi most of this day, so I don’t know if this has something to do with it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EP2008:
No additional battery drain has been noticed since adding VoIP to my phone, even with the "receive calls " option turned on.

I'm on WIFI 100% of my day. I'm not sure if that makes a difference.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kevjef420:
I wonder why it drains my battery so fast. something is happening.

When I use Dell Voice or any other sip client like csip this does not happen.

maybe it is stopping my phone from deep sleep.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EP2008:
Use an app like betterbatterystats and see if you have any rogue wakelocks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pitnefor:
all voip services that ive tried on my galaxy s3 with "receive calls" enabled will prevent the phone from going into deep sleep. Makes sense because the SIP client needs to contact the SIP server every 30 seconds or so otherwise the SIP server will drop the client. (as i understand it)

Groove IP doesnt wakelock the phone, but I dont like the backend. That is, you can only have one client logged into google chat (which is how groove ip works) at a time. Also it does not support 911 services. both huge issues for any serious investment

SIP is much more flexible aside from the wakelock requirement
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BinkXDA:
I have found this does make a difference—battery usage when the device is configured to receive calls is noticeably higher when using 3/4G versus Wi-Fi.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eKeith:
I use the native SIP client with my VoIP.ms account daily and it works great!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KemikalElite:
http://ultimatephoneguide.com/index..._Calling_over_VoIP_with_native_Android_Dialer

I wrote a step by step guide to utilize Google Voice and PBXes for native VoIP SIP calling for anyone who's interested in how exactly this is setup.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oraclerouter:
So I have my Nexus 4 setup to use pbxes and the native sip client. When I make call from outside to my google voice number, the call shows up on my nexus call log as +<phonenumber>@<ipaddress) Is there way in pbxes to change the call id formatting to only send the <phonenumber>

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nativesmiley:
This is what keeps popping up
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
I recall T-Mobile saying they were going to start notifying users when they are data roaming and getting close to their cap for it. You might want to call them to verify you are, indeed, not data roaming.

Alternately, go into Settings -> Wireless and network -> Mobile network settings -> and uncheck "Data roaming"

See if you still have a data connection after that.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nativesmiley:
It still pops up even when its checked or not
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
Weird. Maybe someone else can offer some insight. Best of luck to you.

Hey that's cool! When I was typing the subject header the page showed me the "Here are the similar threads we found" bit. Unfortunately my mind is willing but my brain just ain't cutting it no more. Must be too many years using Windows.

I've looked around here and there seems to be a complete wealth of info for rooting, but unless I'm mistaken there seem to be bits here and there.

Is there a guide for grumpy 40something-year-old blokes who are rather rubbish at THIS SORT OF THING? Hell, I'd even PayPal for an idiots guide!

Grumpy Old Guys Unite!

Congratulations from a 50something-year-old analog-minded geek for rooting your 6210. Sounds like we might be in the same boat. Old codgers (soon to be curmudgeons) hanging on by our fingertips to the bleeding edge of technology. All I can say about these forums is read everything before you do anything. And then ask some smart questions to make sure you're on the right track. You won't piss off too many of the rom-boffins this way, and you might avoid bricking your Tab. Good luck and welcome to the google/android/samsung version of our future.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] mohawk585:
Re: If your rooted

1. Download a program called SManager in the play store.

2. open it up and click on options at the bottom and click on console.

3. Shell will open and type the following...

su <cr>

whoami <cr>

what you get back should either be... "root" or unknown uid 0

if you get anything other then you are not rooted.

Hope this answers your question

Dave.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] bittersound:
Aha, it turns out it DID NOT work.

I followed the root procedure with no error message, the tablet rebooted just fine but SManager returns "unknown uid 0", which indictes the device is not rooted.

To add to the confusion, Titanium Backup Pro says "OK (BusyBox 1.18.4-Titanium from app) with a lovely tick next to "Root access:"

Seems like the device is confused, at least as much as me...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] rtfm1777:
Huh... I have a similar confusion. Titanium Backup also tells me "OK (BusyBox 1.18.4-Titanium from app). I've cleaned Samsung bloatware off the Tab successfully using adm which I assume I wouldn't be able to do if I wasn't rooted. Yet File Manager tells me I don't have root permission to use their advanced root settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] bittersound:
To confuse matters even more, I appear to have succesfully put the QMGBBQRQM Final Release ROM on the tablet :) :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] bdds13:
Have you installed superuser from the market yet? If you already have installed superuser, then check if theres an update for superuser. Sometimes that helps apps to recognize that you have root.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] garyd9:
From another "40 something"... Read the sticky thread called "** FAQ and useful info **" at the top of the general subforum.

This "grumpy 40-something" spent quite a bit of time gathering the links and text for that post, and it really gets people grumpy when others (such as yourself) appear too lazy to read it.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Zadeis:
Still going with that diva title eh? lol but you do have a point also. I check it from time to time myself.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] mohawk585:
re:

"unkown uid 0" is root. If you get this you are root'd and are good to go.

you need to have super user running when you start up titanium backup and if you get the pop up window saying titanium backup wants root access then you are definitely root'd.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nesx87:
Hello,

I have Gnex GSM version, bought from Amazon.de.

I have the latest official firmware 4.0.2, received it promptly.

Today i was at the hospital, to see a person dear to me, and i put the phone on silent. The phone would increase the volume by itself.

It did not go crazy or sumth, however it would not stay silent.

I tried turning off the data network (3g/2g) as the [repeating] change between all data speeds seemed to trigger it (though i cannot tell for sure).

This did not fix things.

What eventually SEEM to have fixed the problem was quiting from the app i have running called LLama (this is an app which according to your location/signal [NOT GPS] performs certain actions and events such as profile changes.).

Conclusion? is this the volume bug? why is it still there if that is the case?!

I am annoyed and looking for help as i know there are a lot of experts here.

Thanks

Regards,
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xanathar:
Llama has an option to disable volume buttons, which is useful to prevent profile changes when you press a volume button. You can manually choose another profile (silent) or disable that feature in Llama settings - Disable volume buttons.

May want to see if the provider you listed has or uses a frequency band utilized by the photon..
