Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

Is there a way to open up google voice, voicemails on an app? I hate to have top open up my browser and download the voicemail and then it play on windows media player.

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

yes, simply dial your gv number from your phone, enter code and follow prompts

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

yeah i forgot to mention aside from that lol... i was thinking more of a vial voicemail type app that avoided using a browser.

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

Hi everyone. Ok I have a GV# already, and I have MagiCall...but how on earth do I get Sprint to give me free calls to/from my GV#?? I called Sprint and the rep had no idea about being able to choose 1 number to send/receive calls for free 24/7. He said there used to be a add-on feature for 1 number free 24/7 but it costed $8 per month and could only be offered/added on older plans and I have the 1500 Everything Data Shared Plan so Im not eligable.

I also asked about the conditional/unconditional call forwarding. According to him, only the conditional call forwarding is no charge as of 11/8/09. I also asked what codes to use to activate/deactivate the conditional call forwarding and he gave me the following info:

Call Forwarding codes:

Unconditional (*72 ) (NOT FREE)

Busy (*74 ) (FREE)
No Answer (*73 ) (FREE)
Busy & No Answer (*28 ) (FREE)

(Add 0 after each code and dial to cancel.)

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

They wont give you free calls to and from your google voice number. You might luck up and get pick 3. But the cell phone providers are well aware of google voice now and are relatively quick at catching it as a free number. So you may get it free but it wouldn't stay that way long.

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

So is it called the "Pick 3" add-on feature or something?? Cause I didnt know what to ask for when I called.

Lol...and for the record - I didnt outright tell them that it was a Goggle Voice # I was talking about!! But I suppose they may have figured it out if its the new "popular thing" people are doing...lol. I just said that I have one # that I call and receive calls from most and heard that some networks offer deals for 1 (or a few) # that you call alot.

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

I guess what I need to know is how to get Sprint add the "Pick 3" thingy (or whatever its called) onto my plan??

I never ever have gone over my anytime minutes cuz mostly everyone is another cell# so its free but sometimes I have to call a utility company during reg business hours and thats during my anytime minutes and they dont give a darn and usually have me on hold for half of forever. So I can manage without the "Pick 3" thingy but it would be nice to have if I can get it.

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

Ok nevermind! I think I finally got lucky!! Or rather....I was lucky all along and just didnt know it!!

So I went online to pay my sprint bill and realized that I have this really old FREE promotion on my account called "Mobile to Home - Sprint to Home Plus LD Promo" which includes FREE incoming and outgoing calls to my home #.

So all I had to do was call Customer Care and tell them that I changed my home phone # and need to give them my new one. Of course, I gave them my GV #. YAY!!

Now I just gotta set up the conditional forwarding to my GV # and Ill be all set to go!!

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

can you add a GV number to your SERO account? isn't the "add 3 favorite numbers" feature only for more expensive plans?

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

I think Pick 3 is for plans $30 and up.

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

Ok so far so good on using GV to forward 2 of my numbers to one phone...

My issue is with getting easy access to my GV call log, without having to open my browser and surf through the GV menus each time..

Any ideas? Any apps/widgets that will make my GV call log easier to view on my windows mobile phone?

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

Ok what if we don't have a plan where you can get free calls with certain numbers. I use Verizon and I found out I don't have the friends and family on my plan where i can add non verizon numbers to call for free... So is there an app to use to utilize GV that is free and doesn't require using your celluar minutes such as just using data (SIP/VOIP) I used FRING but the call audio quality is terrible with bad echoing... Most of the apps have bad echoing. Any of you guys know of a good app? or better yet.. how to unlock the "internet calling" in the Today's widgets?? I guess with that widget you can punch in your SIP credentials and not need any software.

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

look for gvdialer. It uses only your data connection

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

The new beta One Dialer works well for me on my TP2, and solved my problems with outgoing SMS being received as they came from my GV number. Even better -- when it was replied it came directly to my regular SMS inbox. I just saved that 406 number as an alternate contact number for that person, and it shows up with the contact name now. I even found if I send a text from my regular SMS app to the new 406 number for that contact, that message is displayed to them as from coming from my GV number (even tho I was not running One Dialer). Superstoked!! It takes a few seconds to send the first sms from within the onedialer app, receive a reply, save that 406 number to the appropriate contact, but so far it seems like a one time thing, and TOTALLY worth it (to me).

I used MagiCall, and that worked fantastic for calls, but the lack of SMS support is what drove me to try something else. I used gVo Dialer (meh-didn't work) and iDialer, but was most impressed with One Dialer.

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

Google Voice is no longer offering the GV Dialer for download. Only way to get it is if maybe the cab file is available on here?? (If it is available on here somewhere, please let me know where to look for it cuz I want to try it instead of the gvodialer Im using now.)

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

Are you running 6.1 or 6.5? I really like onedialer, but when i have it open i can't make regular calls, so i am interested to find out if there is something that i can do to make it work better.

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

love gv for international calls, but I'm always paranoid that it will auto forward some incoming calls (if i give the person my gv number) and I'll miss them. I've had it happen a few times, and it can't be reception cuz it was full bars.

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

this program is not made by google.
it is also a paid program so to post it would be warez

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

Do any of these work with Voice Commander? Has anyone tried the implementation of that in 6.5? I currently have a Mogul with 6.1, but hope to upgrade to a 6.5 (even if unofficial) phone soon. Want something that works hands free, preferably without requiring having a data connection open all the time.

Pocket RAR reported the rules files as corrupt or unknown file type. Do I need to use WinRAR on the desktop?

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

I used winrar desktop with no problems

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

I almost exclusively use GV for international calls (France, Portugal) and it's been bad for a long enough time I'm reconsidering my options. I don't mind paying but I do expect a reasonable quality.

This problem has been going on for weeks and does not seem to get any better.
Anybody has insider knowledge? Are they working on it at all??

For whatever reason, people can't seem to download the rules, so I re-upped them here...

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

I dont have a data plan.

Is there a way I can use one of these free apps through WIFI to call international numbers for free?

I mean frings only allows you to call other frings/skype people. Do the apps on MordyT's 1st post allow me to call people's cellphone internationally for free through wifi?

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

No.
All what this thread is talking about is how to set-up google voice to work with outgoing calls on your cell-phone.

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

Thanks mordy for clearing that out

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

ditto. i put ten bucks on it, 8 hours later ive still got money in it. amazeballs

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

Yeah international calling is as cheap as using an ooma.

GVdialer is no longer available for download: http://blog.gvdialer.com/2009/10/26/...rDownload.aspx

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

I started with iDialer + iContacts + Greenbutton. My initial attempts to install and configure them failed, but the developer was immediately responsive (like w/in an hour) and gave me some direction. I quickly figured out what I was doing wrong and used the combo for about 10 days. It worked extremely well, but not flawlessly. I wanted to try something different, something that didn't have it's own interface, and I also wanted to try voice dialing (which I still haven't done, but soon).

I decided to give MagiCALL a shot. Rather than pay the $25 purchase price, I went through TrialPay (I'm trying out Netflix) and got my registration code w/in 24 hours. With a little futzing around, I got it up and running. It's an awesome app and has been perfect in the week that I've had it. I haven't gotten into some of the more in depth features of MagiCALL, but so far I haven't needed to.

iDialer, et al, is a great combination with awesome developer support. I really hope that people who use these apps make a generous donation to the developer. If I ever go back (in fact, I'm considering using iDialer with MagiCALL), I'd be willing to give $20 or so. Being able to use GV as your primary number as seamlessly as these apps do make it well worth whatever money you invest.

Thanks to the OP for the great links and instructions, by the way. I have to admit I haven't read through the entire thread, but at this point, I don't think I need to. I seem to have everything I need. :)

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

Thank you for the positive feedback. I am glad to know that someone benefited from all the work I poured in.

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

I did not see GoVoMo listed on post one.
It is also free and works great for me.
I prefer it over idialer.

Re: Google Voice Incoming/Outgoing Options!
 

We have 4 options when receiving a GV incoming call. we have to select 1 on keypad to take the call. Sometimes if I am slow to push the 1, I will miss the call. Is there any way to set the default option to 1 when we receiving a GV call, so we don't have to make the selection?
