Hmm.. I'm not too sure about your Android Google Voice issue... Here's my process:
1. Download Google Voice from the Android Marketplace (make sure it's the one from Google, Inc.)
2. Open "Voice" from the programs list.
3. Delete my auto-fill account info. Enter my actual GV account info. Sign in.
4. Walk all the way through the settings, set to ask every time I make a call, hit skip on the voicemail setup, finish.
5. Test calling. When I select a contact and hit the phone button, it asks me call with googlevoice or call without googlevoice...

Other than that, I don't know what to tell you.

Regarding the calling card method, Android and WinMo use slightly different access numbers; WINMO, regardless of what program is being used, likely always uses your personal GV number as the calling card, so if you only use WinMo, you only need to add your personal GV number in to get free calls. ANDROID, however, uses the official GV app to dial, which maintains a list of local access numbers (likely to cut down on Google's costs), dials the access number instead of your personal GV number, so you must watch while Android GV dials a number and it will flash the access number it is calling at the top, looking like +1-234-567-8901 . Whatever number that is flashed is the one that needs added to your F&F to get free outgoing calls, and your personal number needs added to get free incoming calls (as long as your GV account is configured to show your GV number when receiving a call).

Hope that helps!

P.S. - I'm excited to see your new WinMo ROM, Fresh!
