Google Voice - ANOTHER way to dial out?
 
I did a search on this and poked around some of the other threads and couldn't find anything.

Since there is no official Google app for winmo, there is no easy, bug-free, way of dialing your contacts. Well I have a couple solutions:

1) Use the "406" number to call your contacts. When someone texts you, you will get a reply back from a 406 area code (they may have more than just 406, but that's all I've seen). If you call that number back it will call your contact and show that the call is coming from your Google Voice number.

2) A much more crude way to do it... just add a new phone number to your frequently called contacts with the following format: googlevoicenum+pause+2+pause+contactphone+#

Just go to the Google Voice Mobile website. Thats the easy bugfree way of doing it. Although you need to be syncing your contacts up with google, which I do.

I've tried that 3 or 4 times and it has never worked. The phone I'm calling rings, but when it's picked up I hear my cell phone's (my google voice cell phone) voicemail. It's like the call isn't coming through on my cell phone. Are you using Opera or IE?

I am using Opera and it works. When you are on the mobile web page, make sure you go to Settings and make sure your "My MObile Number" is your cell phone number.

There's a way to dial directly from your contacts via a calling card.

1) In your Google Voice settings, make sure that "Voicemail access" is set to "Yes" with "PIN not required".

2) Install the attached CAB and restart your phone.

3) In your Programs, run CallingCard, and select Menu > Add

4) Fill out as below:

Name: Google Voice

Access#: 1112223333p2 (where 1112223333 is your 10-digit Google Voice number)

Set Insert to "None"

Pin#: # (just the "pound" sign, nothing else)

Set Insert to "None"

Leave Intl. Access # blank

Dial Sequence: Set to "Phone# + Pin"

5) Click Save, select the newly created "Google Voice", and "Activate". That's it!

Now whenever you want to call using your Google Voice number, just browse to your contacts, tap and hold your contact, and select the CallingCard option.

make sure your not in 1x. calls won't come in with active data (data connection can exist, just no traffic)
