Are you on stock 6.5 or custom 6.5? And just to get this right you say that the google voice android app works with the newest kernel>

Re: google voice with android

!!!!!Temporary Solution for non-working Android Google Voice App!!!!!!!

This has been killing me and I was unable to find any concrete answer anywhere. It seems to be half and half in-regards to who has this working and who doesn't.
First it seems to be that the problem is when using the app it has +1 hard coded into the Google Access Number, so when you call someone and the app goes to call the connect number you receive an error and the call ends. Following these steps I got it to work for me:
1. Call someone using the Google Voice App and wait for the Google Access Number to dial
2. Write down the Google Access Number and end call if not already ended.
3. Save the Google Access Number in your contacts list (I suggest you add it to favorites)
4. Now place another call with the Google Voice App and wait until the call prematurely ends.
5. Once it ends, go to the Google Access Number in your Contacts list or favorites and call the access number
6. Viola!! the call connects to the person you originally attempted to call.

What a work around, but it seems to work.
Please test and give feedback.

Thanks to majaluk from this link http://www.google.com/support/forum/...822ca364&hl=en

Re: google voice with android

Any ideas about the google voice app itself? I downloaded the GV app from the android market, and it doesn't seem to work at all. It sits at the connecting screen and spins. Everything else is working on the phone (data, calls, etc), but I can't connect to GV. I am running the stock WM 6.1 ROM with the latest android installed.

EDIT:

Nevermind, I figured it out. Apparently when it tried to connect to GV using the account already configured with the phone, it did not work. I had to click "sign in as a different user" and then enter my username and password again. (Note, this was the same account that I used to set up the phone...) I'm not sure what caused that issue or if it was mentioned already, but there ya go.

Re: google voice with android

The problem might be that for some, dialing +1 makes calls not go through. For some (like myself), it causes no problem. That's what makes it so confusing to troubleshoot.

A workaround was added to the RIL a while back (commit here, if you're curious). Try adding

Code:
north_am_dialing=1
to your cmdline (startup.txt). If the problem is with the +1, and if that fix works for TP2 (it should, but I'm not 100% sure), that should solve the problem.

I tried this, and I got a haret.exe error stating "unknown switch 'north_am_dialing'" and crashed.
