I did, but it says my gmail is not hooked up to google voice, and when I try to go to google voice, it asks me to apply for an invite. I did that like a year ago, and never received one.

You get a free Google voice invite by purchasing a nexus one. Use a computer and log into your account that you setup with your nexus, and you can pick your voice number.

I purchased my nexus one with my Gmail account and it still says I have to wait for an invite.

Invitations Left
Sometimes the invite comes and people delete them or they end up in weird places.
I will offer up one of my 10 remaining invites.
Once I get your private message, I will submit the invite.
Thank you,
Adam Stafford

Let me know
Let me know if you need one.

Just wondering, isn't Google Voice US only?

I am an American. I am on vacation right now.

Google Voice doesnt work for the UK right?

Just my N1 in the mail today...so should I eventually be receiving a google voice invite?
update: i just downloaded the app and signed in and it said "ready to use"

Google Voice Invites have been used
Hi all,
Wow that was alot of responses so fast. The originator of the post and a few others got personal invites and the rest have been submitted for an invite from Google.
Good luck to the rest of you, check your PM from me to see what was the status of your invites.
Either: Personal invite or Invite on your behalf.
Thanks.
One more thing if you would like to visit the Google Voice Invite and sign up for yourself please log into your GMail account first then visit http://bit.ly/GV-Invite
Not sure if this makes a difference but I want to make sure Google knows you already have a account associated when you submit the request.

I received an invite long time ago but it is useless for me since im not in united states

Google Voice for ALL!!
Get Google Voice now! [Open for Everyone!]
Thanks for the clarification Google, "Everyone in the US to try!"

Free Google Voice invite!!

I already have a Google Voice account, but just received a couple of new invites on other e-mails that I had signed up a while back. I obviously don't need three GV accounts so I'll be giving one out for free via a random name drawing for any that show interest. I think I've got the other one going to someone, but if not, I'll be giving out both of them.
If you're interested, just leave a quick reply to this post on PPCGeeks and I'll follow up soon with further details as to who is the lucky recipient.

thanks in advance!

I'm pretty sure if you have a 2.1 ROM, you can just download the Google Voice app and that will get you in... I'm running SushiROM 2.02 and it worked for me.
you can sign up online and automatically get accepted if you have a gmail account and an android phone i believe. I never needed an invite.

I did that but was unable to create a new g voice number.
I have 2 invites, just PM me ur email addresses

GV invite if...

many moons ago i got my google voice account, and one person i sent an invite to (out of my 3 invites) never activated the account for some reason... is there a way to get google to give me the invite back so that i can send it to someone who will actually use it?
Wouldn't Google be able to answer that question?
Nope you can't get it back....although I suppose you could setup a new email address & then send one of your remaining invites to yourself. If you do that then the new account might get more invites.
yes, but if you know how to get in touch with someone who works on google voice let me know lol.
as for sending myself an invite that's not an option, the invite that i sent was my 3rd and last, and it's just sitting there not accepted for weeks now!

WAIT WAIT WAIT that's CANNOT be right - App store question

(Yeah please excuse the subject typo...rage and all)
So I've just come across an interesting problem. With the Froyo update I took the opportunity to change what I'll call the root profile Gmail address from my personal to work (on Google Apps). Alls well until I go to reload my apps which won't because it's under a different Gmail address. Samsung support says "Nope" it won't combine email addresses.
My question is, will Googs allow this? I've got enough invested in apps that I do NOT want to buy them over again and quite effing honestly, SHOULDN'T HAVE TO.
Something else comes to mind (speaking in future tense now)...if I had purchased them through the Amazon Marketplace this wouldn't have been an issue?

Your purchases are registered under one gmail profile...seems pretty straightforward to me. You couldn't buy apps with one Apple ID and download them on another. Why not sign your original gmail back in and then add the other gmail?

From a developer stand point, I understand why not.
Then I could just register one address with all of my families android devices and they would all have the apps that where only paid for once.
go back to the other email address....
Yeah, just log out and log back into the old gmail account.

I think that is what google does not want to happen, the apps were paid for once from the owner of the purchase. They don't want people adding emails to a google account and giving away paid apps free just by adding emails.
Can't go back to the other address. The phone is for word so I'm using my work address going forward. Meanwhile everything purchased is back with the personal email. Any way to combine them? Quis how do you add another email to your account?

Go to gmail > accounts > add account
You can set either account as your "preferred" account, but you have to have your original gmail account as your main to link the apps you purchased.
I would have to say that i agree with google here. i know it sucks in your situation but you know how many people would take advantage of that. I could buy an app and then let my wife have it on her acct too. like 9kracing said just add both accts to your phone.
Yeah but cmon is that info and warning displayed anywhere?!? I should have the ability to *transfer/move*, not multiple times to multiple accounts but just to another email address. Both are even under the same first name! 1:1 transfer nothing more. As if to say "Hey Google, I'm over here now".
@9kracing: "Go to gmail > accounts > add account" does that work for Google Apps? I'm not seeing that option at all and I've got OPS.

You could forward all work mail to your personal account, and create a filter in gmail to give them a Lable, like "Work" and skip them showing up in your personal inbox.

I looked into this for a long time, simply put, there is no way to swap app purchases from one gmail account to another.
That's really *really* annoying. Thoughts on if using Amazon Appstore gets around this issue?
Why not log into the gmail account that has the purchases and copy them to the sdcard? Then log in as the other account and install them from the sdcard.

I'm a little confused.
When I go to Gmail and hit menu, there is an "accounts" option. Go there. Now at the bottom of the screen, I have a little button that says "add account". I only have 1 gmail so I haven't tried it, but the concept seems pretty simple to me....
Yeah that's simple enough too. Then you can have all your paid apps on your sd card

Well, the apps purchased from the Amazon Appstore is also tied to the account that purchased it, but you can always change the email associated with the account.

Phone number stolen

Hi!
In the past few days, several people have called me claiming I've been texting them about their items on craigslist. I haven't been texting, and the people calling me are from states in the mid-west. It appears that someone took my number and added it to their Google Voice account. When these craigslist people call me, it does the whole, "state your name and we'll try to connect you".
What can I do, aside from getting a new number?
Try to reclaim your number via Google voice
Get (if you don't have one) a Google voice account
Add your number to it
It will say "this number is in use would you like to reclaim it" (or something similar)
Note: the person(s) that had your number added WILL RECEIVE AN EMAIL ABOUT THE CHANGE.
You could contact your carrier as well, otherwise this might become a cat and mouse game between you and the other person(s).

I tried adding my number to my Google Voice account, and it gave me the following error:
"This number is already being used on two other Google Voice accounts. Forwarding numbers cannot be shared across more than two accounts."
It didn't give me the option to reclaim it. I have 3 Gmail accounts, and it isn't an any of them.
Thanks!

Try contacting Google directly. You may have to go through the help pages. I have never seen a number be able to be used on TWO Google accounts at once. (I have two google voice accounts, and cannot use one number on both)
I wish I had another solution. Sorry.

I called the FCC, and they said there's nothing you can do.
I've stopped getting random calls.Whoever was spoofing with my number seems to have moved on to another number.
