Man... you know, it wouldn't hurt to structure your post into "sentences". Maybe slow down, prewrite a little in notepad?

First you have to understand that the official GV app is just a fancy frontend for what is still a voice call over the cellular network using your minutes. Google Voice lets you make free calls terminating in the US, but that "free" only describes the connection from Google Voice's servers to the destination. The link from your phone (whether it be landline or mobile) to the GV server will be billed as normal. So if you called from your landline, the call would be completely free (not counting your monthly landline fee). If you call from a mobile, you can currently make flat-rate calls by setting one of your MyFaves numbers as your GV number and then using the official GV app or performing a callback from the GV webpage.

What you are thinking of, completely free calls initiated from the phone, would require VOIP. There is also a method to do this using sipdroid. Sounds out of your league though.
[G1 Apps and Games] KaL-EL3038:
hey well thanks for the insults

That's not what I was looking for but I guess disrespectful people like you don't know how to describe things to noobs with a good maner cause you think your so bad cause you know more stuff then me well hey bad ass go shove your egotistic know it all attitude where it done shine cause I can't say bad words on here cause I do respect people unlike you...dam people these days...and for your info the other gv app is able to make calls for free cause it uses the call back future with out your computer....so your sipdroid method is not the only way moron.
[G1 Apps and Games] jashsu:
Wow... that's quite some rage issue you've got there. I guess on these forums when you try to give a concise answer its considered being an egotistical know it all? Makes sense...

The unofficial GV app actually performs a callback using the webpage too. It just hides the html query from you.
[G1 Apps and Games] jordanjay29:
You know, I was going to help you out by showing you a known workaround, but whatever, it sounds like you don't care about taking advice. Following jashsu's advice helps us help you, but your insults make me want to ditch you.

Have fun with your problems and frustration. Kthnxbye.
[G1 Apps and Games] KaL-EL3038:
It ain't rage man...its just friendliness that I asked for... not to be answered with smart remakrks and all...all you had to do was to explain like you did that last paragraph with out the its out of your league crap and the first explanation with out the remarks...cause again aren't these forums mean for questions and learning from each other??? Even if its a stupid question?
[G1 Apps and Games] bob50963:
Kals correct. There was no need for all that mumbo jumbo. He is one of the 100s I am sure that is lost setting up google voice app. This is a place to learn lets be friendly :D
[G1 Apps and Games] cigar3tte:
His writing style keeps others from reading his post and helping him. jashsu not only answered his question, but showed him how he'd get more help in the future.
[G1 Apps and Games] jashsu:
People write the kind of answers they want to receive. I myself don't want to be coddled, so my answers tend to be technical. My personal opinion is those are the kinds of answers that tend to dispel misconceptions the fastest. However, if you don't like my reply, please feel free to ignore or report it. If it's inappropriate, it will be moderated.

Edit: We're getting off topic (the official GV app). If you (or others) feel the need to further discuss this topic, just PM me.
[G1 Apps and Games] trevordbs:
Talk about run on sentences...

Anyway, I've been getting a lot of "all of our circuits are busy at this time" when using GV anyone else get this lately? I picked up an 818 area code btw, wonder if that could be it.*shrug*

I just recently received my invite and set up the GV(unofficial app). Now from what I currently understand, I have changed one of my 5 favs to my new GV number, using the contacts through the GV app, i am technically making "free" calls to people, correct?

It's not like I REALLY need the free minutes, but it's just another thing I can rub in my fathers face, when I talk him about his sh1tty IPhone of course.:)
[G1 Apps and Games] G1-evolve:
Just got my invite! This is the ****!!!! :D
[G1 Apps and Games] jordanjay29:
Check your minutes after making a call through GV.

And yes, rub it in, especially after Apple deliberately pulled GV apps. Thanks, Cupertino, you just let Android one-up you once again!
[G1 Apps and Games] jashsu:
I've always hesitated on calling the iPhone a "smartphone" platform because iPhone users don't legitimately have the capability to install "any" app they want. They are limited to the walled garden of the App Store. True, it's a very big garden, but they're still being supervised at all times by Apple.

It shouldn't take the rejection of a major release by Google for people to be up in arms about the App Store's completely idiotic approval and moderation policies. The irony of course is that in time, Google will craft a GV interface for iPhone using the browser anyway.

Enough about the iPhone's situation though. The official GV app for Android is the most polished GV experience on a mobile phone thus far, but it could be a lot better. As evidenced by the many posts on this and other boards, the way GV works with carriers and how it routes calls is still quite confusing to the layperson. There is room for improvement, and in particular I want to see Google work in voip (say by integrating Google Talk) into Voice.
[G1 Apps and Games] jordanjay29:
IMHO, the iPhone isn't a smartphone because it cannot truly multitask. But that's semantics to some people. Whatever.
[G1 Apps and Games] wootroot:
gotta love when apple makes sure its customers are happy by not "taking away from the overall iphone experience" and letting apps like googlevoice on there appstore lol
[G1 Apps and Games] mlevin:
Has Google somehow blocked Evan's app? In the last few days it hasn't been working for me (it constantly FCs adn when I go to mail or call log tabs it shows nothing, even if I refresh/reload).
[G1 Apps and Games] sha.goyjo:
working fine here.

It wouldn't be google anyways. In order to block the app google would have to change their website, which they haven't.

The FC's might be due to your os....what rom are you running? I don't know if evan has updated for 1.5r2 or r3 yet....I should drop him a line and ask if he'd release a modified apk for those of us testing the new builds.
[G1 Apps and Games] DOHCtor:
I got my invite through the official apps build number 0.1.415.742.2130 (it's actually the app creator's google voice number). I sent him or her a text message asking for an invite and gave him or her my name and gmail address. I recieved an invite within two days :D

About the app, I love the free sms feature since I'm only limited to 400 monthly. I haven't given out my google number to friends yet, still playing with it and prank calling/texting my friends and co-workers.
[G1 Apps and Games] gurnted:
This should work

Get a free #from ipkall

Choose a free sip provider to point the ipkall # to. Gizmo5 will work but doesn't forward callerID unless you pay for it. I use sip2sip and it works fine.

Get an account @ pbxes & configure the trunk, and inbound routing for the sip account. also create an extention at pbxes to use with your mobile

Install Sipdroid-full app from Google Code page & log in using the extention you created @ pbxes.

Install GV app from market. Don't try to use the "official" Google Voice app. It will not work for this.

In GV app change calling method to callback and change callback # to your ipkall #.

I realized right after I posted this that pretty much the same solution was suggested but with Gizmo5 as the sip provider. I tried using Gizmo5 a while back and it didn't work too well. the setup I described is just what is working for me.
[G1 Apps and Games] serial thriller:
Ok, made the switch today and put the myfaves on my plan.

Works great except I can't reply to text messages. Anybody else have this issue or a workaround?

I can type in the field for reply, but the send button is not able to be pressed.

Any help is appreciated!
[G1 Apps and Games] jordanjay29:
Have you tried pressing enter? How about rebooting?

If that doesn't work, try uninstalling and reinstalling the program.
[G1 Apps and Games] serial thriller:
Tried all three. Thanks for the ideas, any other thoughts. Could it be something in my account? I looked all over and could not find anything. I am an in the IT field and usually know my way around everything but for the life of me this i can't figure out. Anybody else having problems like this?
[G1 Apps and Games] jordanjay29:
Warning: exhaustive list...

What carrier are you on?

Rooted or stock?

-What build version?

-Who's build?

Do you have data signal when you try to reply?

Do you have cell signal when you try to reply?

Are you able to reply via the website?

Do all the other features (receiving texts, receiving calls, receiving voicemail, etc) work as described?

Have you tried the 3rd party GV app?
[G1 Apps and Games] serial thriller:
not for sms, liked the integration with offcial gv
[G1 Apps and Games] jordanjay29:
Only other thing I can think of is linking up to the computer and running logcat via ADB while running GV and attempting to respond to an SMS. If it's an error in the app or conflict with your build, it might appear there.

But you might also go to theDude to see if anybody else on his build is experiencing this issue.
[G1 Apps and Games] odomandr:
cool i can keep my 400 message plan, have unimited texts, and get visual voicemail now. ive had a google voice account since early july but hadn't looked into it completely til just now. i honestly dont even know when i registered for it.
[G1 Apps and Games] DOHCtor:
Did you know that the new 24.99 internet plan no longer includes 400 text messages. T-Greedy!!!!

I love my Google Voice :D
[G1 Apps and Games] odomandr:
i had read that somewhere. glad i got in while it included the texts as my voice plan does not have any. do they still offer the unlimited data and unlimited texts for 34.99?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] mohen:
well just had a thought going through my head.

imagine that you just flash to a new Rom and the Sim unlock process doing it automatically, right after it's finish the installing stuff .

should be nice , and since i don't know how to unlock my G4 device ( and it's seem a little complicated, no clear solution ) will be great if it will be packed with all of that .

is it possible ? :cool:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] tigrisimo:
IN FACT

Hello:

to unlock a G4 device is simple and easy, just follow some instructions, have a fully charged battery and thats it, is really simple, search on the FORUM you will get the answers.

If not i can help you unlocking a WIZARD G4 device:)

[P3400 ROM Development] Addicted2xda:
Come to think of it, the shipped ROM is the best :D :D :D. Atleast for lazy pple :(
[P3400 ROM Development] Duron23:
The best ROM depends on the individuals choices. A ROM which I think is best could be not that great for somebody else.

Personally I feel all the ROM available in this forum for GENE is best. Because it is giving we owners of GENE to taste the latest in the Windows Mobile technology.

For that we should be thankful to all Chefs here.
[P3400 ROM Development] besony:
@ Addicted

Can you please link us with any Cube_ROM ?

which works like HTCTouch or, SPB Shell !?

with customization options..
[P3400 ROM Development] Duron23:
Hi Besony,

I suggest you trying Manila based ROM, than a cube ROM. As I personally feel Manila is more fringer friendly, responsive and has more Icandy to it. Just a personal opinion.
[P3400 ROM Development] hsmcd:
im sorry to ask such a noob question coz i really really new to gene and this forum...Manila based ROM-you mean manila2D??thanx for reply and sorry for stupid question
[P3400 ROM Development] Duron23:

Its ok, it happens with every body. no regrets.

Yes i am talking about Manila2D.

You can try krazy's Manila Vanilla ROM.

But when i go to sim manager i can see that i have 50 free spaces for msg and there is nothing to delete. The reason i have a problem with this is that i cannot receive my billing report from my gsm operator cause they probably store automatically to sim card. I tried to put a card in the different phone and everything is working.

What could be the problem?

[G1 General] CharonIDRONES:
From my experience, I have received better battery life, reception and speed with the .23 radio, since upgraded the spl with haykuro's new one, I have been a bit afraid to downgrade the radio on my phone (running Ion as of today, amazing!). I was wondering if I am the only one who experienced this? And yeah, I did search the forums, however, the thread that was previously up could not be continued as it was no longer a valid link (found the google cache of it).

For those that have tried the .23 radio, what build are you using? Also, can the radio affect applications? I know that from my WinMo days it could, and obviously from our experience with the new spl, it can also in here, but what about the .23 radio with 1.5 ROMs?

What are your experiences with the differences in the sapphire (.23) radio and the newer .26I one? If that thread before was locked or removed and that is the reason why the link is no longer valid, I apologize to the mods and you can lock this thread, I just wanted to continue the discussion on this topic, as if we are getting better reception and battery life from a different radio, why take a step back?

-Brandon
[G1 General] guybrushtx:
I had the radio 23 on my device and the bluetooth in my car doesn't work with the Dream.. I saw the contacts list, I could receive a call, but I was not able to make a call at all... After upgrading to the new radio everithing goes well, and now bluetooth works correctly! so IMHO the new radio is far better than the old one!

:)
[G1 General] BrumBrum74:
Where to download .23 radio? Links on Haykuros site is not working so there might be some trouble with it?

maybe it does different things on different handsets?!
[G1 General] xavier6303:
With .23, I was always in 3G but my wifi wont work with .23. With .26, I am always switching back and forth between 3G, edge, and GPRS but wifi works fine. I have both radios on my sd and flash between the two frequently just because I'm not sure which one I like better.
[G1 General] atoy74:
Agreed. .26 always has me switching all the time and it's pretty annoying. Makes the Market a real pain.
[G1 General] fdisk81:
I also like .23 A LOT better since it was significantly faster; unfortunately .26I will be required for Hero and it's required for 6.0r1 so I'm stuck with it :(
[G1 General] NexVision:
It maybe required for hero but I doubt it. It is not in anyway require for 6.01 as I was using 6.01 and went back to 5.02 and im still using older radio.

Based on what I know about radios from PPC side a radio will never be requirement for rom SPL is a whole nother story and radio maybe required to flash certain SPL. Rom should not require certain radio though.
[G1 General] fdisk81:
Interesting, though it makes a lot of sense, I don't know why I always thought the two were inclusive. Wasn't there something about the new SPL bricking non .26I phones?

Is it possible to turn Bluetooth & GPS on automatically whenever the phone is externally powered and off again when back to battery? That would be very convenient for car use.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] mitsi:
Here is the program you want. I use it and it's great.

By the way, it only switches bluetooth on when charging. I don't know about GPS. You could check the Mortscript threads for that or request it there.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] palpable:

Hi There,

If you ever used the "Close Button" plug-in from Spb Mobile Plus you prolly know what I mean...

The HTC Taskmanager looks all nice, I like it, but its only accessible on the Today Screen. Is there a way to make it accessible even when you're not on the today screen?

Sometimes when you're doing stuff you want to "alt-tab" to another program and this is an easy way to do it, or when you want to close another/all other programs.

I hope there's a solution because it really is an improvement to the taskmanager.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] scottspa74:
me too

sorry, no help here. I can only say "me too". I was actually just thinking about this today. I've had this phone for a few months, and it just today occurred to mr today that you can't close other open programs without going back to the today screen, only option is to "x" button back to today screen or hope that what you seek to close is in your start menu under 'recent items'.

any help or development would be super appreciated, thanks all.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] mitsi:
There is a shortcut in the Settings folder in the Systems tab. However, I expect you don't want to go through all of that when you want to use it. As an alternative, you could use file explorer and go into the Windows folder, find the Task Manager program in there, copy it and past a shortcut in the Windows/Start Menu folder. Then it would be on your Start Menu. You would need to remove one other item if you were then over the allowed maximum number of items in there.

Is that accessible enough?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] VerusAmos:
I'd rather not put it in my start menu cus there are other "important" shortcuts in there...

I'd rather have it in the upper right corner...
