Google Voice for outgoing exclusively on EVO?

[timtlm]

There's a market app called Google Voice Dialer that will route your call through your data connection. Supposedly it's integrated into the dialer so you don't have to run the app to do it. It's $1.99. I haven't tried it myself. http://gvdialer.cpedia.net/

I am trying to use google voice as my primary number, but having no mms bugs me. Also, not being able to send sms to multiple recipients could be a problem once in a while. Having access to all your texts and voicemail online is really cool though.

You missed the point of the previous posts. The standard google voice app still uses your minutes. That market app will use data. After reading through it, you have to use it in conjunction with a free voip service like fring.

I am a HUGE google voice user and have been reading about this today as I had to switch off my SERO1250 plan to the 450 minute 69 dollar plan (well 79 after the data charge) and I have some 4.99 charge because of my 150 charge plan which I gotta deal with, but YES it does use your minutes and its going to really mess things up for me, Does sprint still support the fave 3 thing ?

Ok. I wasnt aware of that and I have been using google voice app for months.

I dont think we wil see gv doing viop type calls until (if) they integrate it with Gizmo.

For those who have pick 3 and unlimited incoming on their line or even just unlimited incoming, they have true unlimited calls with gv (like me) but the lack of mms is a HUGE killer for it. I honestly dont see why dont at least reroute mms to your gmail account that is tied to the gv account.

the lack of MMS is a big bummer I agree, but the security and control I have over giving people my google voice number is awesome!

It's simple for me. My friend's get my Sprint number, anyone else gets Google Voice. I don't want to give up the unlimited mobile to mobile calls. Now I do have my sprint VM forward to google voice so Google gets all my voicemails. I know the EVO has VVM but transcribed voicemails with web access is better.

same with most people, on family plan with 4 lines and average usage is like 200 minutes.

How do I get the VM setup to go to google voice, that would be awesome, and does it charge me minutes if I do that ?

Thanks!
