WM6.1 - voIP - today screen plugin?

[sdruid]

No, I am not dial "1" before the number....do I have to, even if it is a local call ?
Another thing I noticed is that use of the "Voip" feature if setup in a different way other than the way you mentioned will cause the phone to freeze on incoming calls...
Just an observation....The Voip crashed afterward and I couldn't get back in to undo the change I had made "just testing the Voip feature"....so I ended up having to reflash the phone, and reload everything from backup...

Thanks...

Yes, you need to dial 1 + area code + number for all calls.

As far as the problem with the voip crashing when not setup the way I have done it, well I haven't seen that before. I did have a problem with answering incomming calls at one point because my phone was responding very slowly - this turned out to be the ring-tone I had selected - the .mp3 file I was using was rather large and it created some issues.

Are you dialing 1+areacode+number? I tested mine initally by dialing 18005551212.

Ok, I added a 1- and it still doesn't work...
looks like it tries for about 2 or 3 seconds then stops and saids "Call ended"...this is over 3G, haven't tried WiFi yet....
Do I need a paid Gizmo account for this because I only have the free one that came from the free full software download...

Thanks...

Well, that is going to be your problem, you need a paid account to dial most numbers.
However, you can still dial 1800 numbers for free, so you should be able to dial 18005551212 and it should work.

Another observation, when I attempt to make a call with a 3G connection established, my 3G data connection drops instantly....
Meaning that now, the Gizmo connection never pops up as the call type or source...only my cellular carrier....
It doesn't work over WiFi at all.....

thanks...

My phone is totally dead now....dead as a door knob...
I guess making calls over Voip doesn't matter now...
Time to buy a new phone and probably not another smartphone but rather a regular flip phone...

Thanks..

I had the same problem. I used the kitchen but the plug in does not work on my titan. I created two tpad accounts. When I connect to tpad on the phone,the phone will ring and answer if I call from the other tpad account. It wont dial out,but I assume that the issue is the dialplan. In any event,it only works with the rear speaker which is dissapointing,but one unexpected thing is that if you have a bluetooth headset,and choose to use handsfree,it works like a charm over the headset. It would be nice to have regular speaker access too,but thats still very usable.
