Hello everyone
I have recently bought the HTC Magic, moving from HTC P900.
The reason I did that was because it has seamless sync with Google apps, which I am using extensively.
However there is an issue. I used the P900 in conjunction with my Nokia / Bluetooth handsfree device in the car to place calls, simply by touching one button and saying whom I wanted to call.
It was very handy, and most importantly safe!!
I searched a lot to find the voice tagging feature in contacts in the HTC Magic. I couldn't find it. I couldn't find any app in the android store that would add that feature to my phone. I find it very hard to believe that P900 had that feature and the Magic doesn't.
Is there anyone out there who has any insight to this matter?
Thank you all for your time and help.

Anyone with a Legend using Google Voice? A lot of us in the Hero forums are having issues with our 2.1 Leaks and using Google Voice. The device "acts" like it's calling through Google Voice, and connects. Though it doesn't actually use Google Voice. I believe it's due to the HTC Dialer. Thus I was wondering if HTC / Google resolved the problem and got it working properly?
Also if it does work can anyone pull the HTC Dialer apk for me so I can play around with it?
(Sorry for cluttering your forum... )
Same here. I can't use Google Voice. When doing calls it looks like the HTC app has higher priority or something like that.

Did anyone received a google email that reads as follow?
Hello, You have been invited to start enjoying the benefits of the Sprint integration before anyone else! We are interested in your feedback as we roll this out to the entire user base and have listed a link to a form where you can send feedback and/or questions
What are the benefits of this integration?
Don't know as I dropped that email in the bit bucket.

Here's a short video demonstration of it http://www.engadget.com/2011/03/24/google-voice-for-sprint-hands-on/
and the official sites:

I guess I've become a total Android/Google whore. I hope they buy Sprint and just bury all the other wireless companies XD
I just did recently, however I am still not sure if this has advantages over having the app. Its either all in or not. I still prefer being able to choose which way I dial out. Whats needed is an option to check off in contacts to force google voice as preferred # to use as dailing out.
The 'integration' feature seems to take away the option to use googlevoice as a way to seperate personal and business use of a single line...?

This service renders your sms/text applocation useless.
You muat use google voice app to recieve text.
Am i missing something? Does google voice have an api for the text? Is that possible to implement that into a sms app?

Voice Plus from the market. You put your contacts into groups in gmail on your pc, set google voice to always dial with google voice (using the widget) and then choose the group in Voice Plus. This is how I call delivery restaurants in my area It works perfectly. I forget about it most of the time.
You have to forward texts to your mobile and turn off notifications for google voice. I am using handcent with google voice and its perfect once I figured that out.
I like having my house phone and cell phone ring when I get a call.

So if we use the integration (just got my invite), we will only have the option of using one phone number? Just to be clear, I have my Sprint number and a separate GV number. If I go ahead with the integration, I have to choose which number I want to keep using?
So their finally making their move. I was warned about this some time ago.

+1 for Voice Plus. It works perfectly. I have no intention of giving up one of my two numbers when this little app makes everything seemless. The only thing I don't like (and this has nothing to do with voice plus) is that any call that is in any way routed through GV right now does not count as a mobile-to-mobile.

The only problem with this is Notifications for Voice Mail is affected too. Id like to retain notifications for VM but maybe they will add this in the future to disable notifications for the 2 services
As long as GV using my mimutes instead 3G I'm not impress.

Even better google has a pretty good video about the service and different ways it can ne used. Its pretty bad on the evo forum as well people dont understand that you do not need the app on your phone to use your phone normally.

until google bypasses POTS, gv calls will always be non m 2 m. this is because of the charges associated with POTS and mandated by federal laws.

I use the Google Voice callback app along with Sprint's Sprint to Home plan (extra $5/Month) in conjunction to Google Voice to bypass the Landline to Mobile charge. Works great.
Im using CM7 on my Desire. I have a direct SIP account set up on it via 'Call Settings-Use Internet Calls' so whenever I make a call I am given the choice of either regular or internet call. However if I install Skype then my choice of calling is either regular or Skype, my choice of using my sip account is no longer available. I have to either freeze or uninstall Skype to get it back again. Does anyone know a way around this or if the developers are aware of it even.
Thanks
Am I the only one who uses their Desire for making internet calls with?
Looks that way
