In OPTIONS tab:

Outgoing calls using voIP: Whenever available
select the "enable voIP over 3G

hit done.

Now do anything that causes your phone to connect to the internet (like open a browser window)...then open the phone dialer. At the top of the phone dialer you'll see the name you selected (the 1st step here where you selected "provider name".

The only issue I've had is that its very difficult to hear the other caller, and obviously it works better with wifi if you have a fast dsl or cable connection to use. The sound is so low that the only way I can even hear the other caller is to use my bluetooth earpiece and be in a quite area.

I've also got gizmo5 account woking with the pocket pc version sjphone. It was more of a pain in the *** to setup, but the sound quality is excellent. Problem is that it uses 100% of your CPU to run the thing, and it uses the external speaker. I installed BT toggle and use bluetooth with it and it seems to work quite well.

What ticks me off besides the 100% cpu usage and the external speaker is that it's not using the native dialer either, so voice command and all that doesnt work. As you can imagine there are countless reasons it'd be better to use the internal dialer and voIP.

I don't understand why the sound quality is so different, only thing I can figure is that they're using different codecs - and I've attempted to install other codecs and manually editing the ipdialplan.xml file (I think that's the name of it) trying to get the low audio volume fixed, but thus far no luck. There is a thread on howardforms that has over 150 posts in it, and I've read the whole thing several times. Thus far I just haven't figured out how get the audio fixed to where it's 100% pracitial.

If anyone has any ideas I'm all ears!

Are you sure the settings are correct, I couldn't make a call out using it ?
Does it support voip calls over WIFI, or is it just 3G ?
Is it just for outgoing calls only, or both in and out ?

Thanks...

hmmm. Mine seems to work with both WiFi and 3G, both incomming and outgoing calls.

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.
