so the vibrant froyo has wifi calling.. and i tried it.. and i dont.. are any devs currently working on this.. because it would be awesome.. i live in a rural area.. and dont get service.. im sure its possible if they did it on the vibrant.. someone should check into it.. it would def be awesome
no,the vibrant has it because tmobile has a contract with another company which is providing their voip. you cannot do the same thing with verizon unless they create the same kind of app. the one on the vibrant was created by tmobile.

Here is a link to an article that contains a link and instructions. I've not tried it, but give it a shot and let us know.

I keep hoping that with Google's (somewhat) recent inclusion of the ability to make phone calls via Gmail, and that combined with having a Google Voice number...maybe /some/time in the near future they would get off their lazy butts and improve our Voice app (so that we can make calls too).
This would be great because many of the computer labs at school have perfect WiFi reception, but no cellular signal can seem to penetrate those terrible brick walls.
I have the same problem with some of our computer labs. By the way, there is sipdroid which you can use right now and I think it has some free voip provider you can use with it.

android market,install sipdroid,its at the bottom,it has you sign in to your google voice account,and you can start calling through your google voice number. If you want to use it over 3g,you have to turn it on in the settings.

i tried it.. and its not working.. whats a google voice number?
My brother is using Google voice on his g1 running cyanogen rom as his primary dial out number ....its weird, my Google voice on my fascinate has three options, use Google voice for international calls, don't use Google voice for calls, and ask for international calls. His has an extra option, use Google voice for all calls....I'm not sure if this is a mod of Google voice from the cyanogen team or what...also, fwiw he's on T-Mobile, but T-Mobile has no coverage above edge in our area so....he typically dials out over wifi...

Can you make non-long distance calls using google voice and your phone???
If so, can you be on that call and browse the web at the same time??
So technically, If you use google voice for the call you are using data and not voice, therefore it seems technically possible to browse and talk at the same time.
Has anyone tried this??? I only have google voice for voicemail so cant test right now.
before you assume that GV automatically defaults to using the data connection why don't you search around a bit...
now, with that being said... once you have managed to get GV operating through Data (it is possible) im not sure if you could call and surf at the same time or not

Since with Google voice you can make calls from your computer, it is easy to assume that it uses data.
now, with that being said... why would you bother replying and telling me to search around when you yourself don't know the answer to my question??
fyi: I am searching... and when I find out, I will share it with anyone who wants to know. That's what this place is all about.
This was easy enough to find on Google.

google voice does not use data. it uses your sprint number.
basically when someone calls your GV it forwards calls to your cell number (or whatever number you want it to), then your sprint number rings. and when you dial out it calls from your sprint number to GV then GV forwards it (the call) to the party on the other end.
it can be set up to use data but is difficult to do and call quality over EVDO or 1x is bad. wifi its ok.
here are a few guides i'm using atm to get this set up over data, i can get incoming calls working but outgoing calls aren't working. i'm this close...
if you set this up like this, then YES you will be able to call and use the internet at the same time. but just using the GV app no its not possible on sprint. it's the way the network is set up. other networks you can but not on sprint.

+1 for Hullomail. Only downside I think is it eats your inclusive minutes whilst the person is leaving a message. Not really a prob for me, get 900mins included and only used 32 last month
nice, this is what I have been looking for! shall have to give this a go! Thanks
really good if you are abroad too as you can pick up your messages without been charged by mobile op as all messages go to email and also missed calls been using it for 2 weeks now now problem really love it and i dont need to pay T mobile to pick up my messages
mmm... hullomail doesnt sound like a answering machine! is more like free voicemail service. No answering machine like old ones on other phones on android?
hullomail is only for us and uk residents
ok... i have to ask...
why do would someone want this function???
really?? I cant think of why.
what about google voice?
It runs seperate of the phone and phone service.
takes your missed phone calls
you can have a custom outgoing message
keeps message online and also sends it to your phone (via data)
translates it to text.. if you want to read the message.
works just like visual voicemail.
HOPE that is a good fit for u.
For NOT calling any number. For having an answering machine localy on my phone as an app. for not redirecting calls and paying minutes for the redirection.
Google Voice is also only in some countries. Not wordwide.

How can it do that, does it work like an answering machine localy on my phone and stores the message ON my phone and trasfers the message to Google Voice Server through the Internet?!?
When someone calls your number... if you don't answer or your phone is off...
The call is sent to Google voice..there is where the message is taken.
Then it is sent to your phone via data. If you are out of range or off. It will sent it to you when you are back to available.

Won't work cause the Verizon version uses Verizon own voice connection to handle the call. Also the app dials a specific Verizon number when you make a call. So it will never work on anything but Verizon phones

I have a skype apk and it works, its a BETA but it still works you can chat and call, I kept the apk for awhile, there is another that you can only chat with this one you can make calls. I can send to you if your interested.
It is awesom BETA Skype. I through I was dreaming.
I was about to start hating Skype but now it is all changed.
All i wanted is to be able to use Skype while at home or work and chat with my family abrode skype-to-skype.
I have a question, it asks for the phone number when I login?!
Should I enter my cell number when I do that?
Like for example +1858 and mobile number?
What is this number for?
Is it for caller ID to be displayed if you call land line or mobile?
My second question is can you make land line or mobile calls from this version or just skype to skype?
When I installed it asked me if I wanted to all Call IN and that it would use my Skype Credit minutes for it?!
How does that work?
could you send me a beta skype thingy? Would really to call my family overseas
(does it work over wifi? or minutes)

Its your phone number that skype people can call you at but you will have to pay for these calls. Skype works for free only between registered skype callers so the first think you need to do is register online at there website, during this time you will need to create a "name", its like a member name this is how skype people call other skype people not with an actual phone number although you can buy a phone number so you can call non members and non members can call you through skype. I will send you an email with a link to down load the apk. You do need to enter a phone number when logging on I just put my real mobile number, actually its my GV number. But when first running the apk you will be asked who you want to call you, choose "only skype members", unless you buy a number but like I said you will be asked to fill in a phone number.
I just tried the app and unfortunately it totally sucks ;-(
It is trying to imitate Google Voice with the call back number.
Basically it uses your voice service and does not work on wifi or 3G to make calls even skype-to-skype totally lame. What is the point?!

I keep seeing posts from various users here, as well as all over the internet, about how easy it is to get SMS up and going through WiFi and they describe various ways of accomplishing it, but none of them ever work for me. Can someone/anyone tell me once in for all rather its possible, and please describe (in detail if you please), how to do it?
Question: If I, or anyone else, was to decide to just wait for the WiFi ONLY Tabs to come out for this very purpose (texting via wifi), would we be wasting our time? I mean IF its not possible via wifi on the wifi/3G Tab, then we shouldnt expect it to work on the wifi ONLY Tab either right? Thanks in advance.
It is possible (and quite easy) to get SMS working over WiFi. If you have a google voice account, you can download the google voice app and use that to text people (or you can use other apps like textplus). That is the current setup that I have since I have no texting plan on my line.
Hope this helps,

Thanks for the reply. Google voice was one of those ways that I had read about already and for me it was not easy at all, and I could never get it to work. The last thing I read about setting that up was using le your home # for the Tab since it is not used for texting purposes...well, it didnt work for me. Maybe you could explain exactly how you set it up?
That app you mentioned I, I tried that a while back and my son told me he was flooded with advertisements...etc, so I dumped it.
Some help please....
Can't someone else give me some help here? This is driving me nuts. Why would using Google work for one and not for others? What could I be missing/doing that's possibly screwing it up?

What am I to do after this point if....
I'm to this point (see attachment) and I'm trying to set everything up "for texting only" and what I've read is "use your home phone #" because it is not used for texting...etc. Well, when I get to the point of what the attachment shows, what the heck do I do? It doesn't seem like I would be able to use my voice phone line to do this, and I cannot use the SGT as I have no dialer??????
Have you tried opening google in the browser via your Tab and useing the provided dialer in google? I use it on my PC as my PC has no dialer either. I will try with my tab and edit this post if it works or not.
I know it's not quite the same, but you could try using "Whatsapp" from the market if all parties have either android or iOS devices.
I just tried your suggestion, well..I at least got on the tab and went to GV site, but then I noticed voice had been activated without me following through at that point shown in the attachment. Now I have another problem. When I sent a text to the tab from my Evo, my home phone rang and Sprint sent what's called a TTLL (Text to Land Line) call....so that's screwed up. I used my tab to try it the other way, but cannot see any way to even send a text, not online at the voice site and not on the tab with the voice app. So it looks like I'm still stuck at not being able to get this going. Really frustrating..

Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately this isnt working for me either. Im at the point of giving up now and just returning the damn Tab. I did all kinds of research on this prior to even buying the tab to at least try and make sure I could accomplish it. Most of what I found was "seemingly" possitive. Everyone makes it sound sooo damned easy to set it up and get it going, well its not, and I will go as far as saying that it isnt possible at all, for at least some, me being included in that latter bunch.
Sms was designed to be sent over cellular network and being associated with the phone number.
The number is also needed for GV. You might try Skype and get phone # and etc using it but its all far from comfortable. There are other services that might work as proxies for you but all cost some money.

Thanks for the reply. I guess then that all of those posts that I've seen here, as well as all over the net, was just "bull". I say this only because of your comment about SMS being designed for cellular network, and only because these posts I'm talking about specifically say they got things up and running and are successfully texting on their SG Tabs via WiFi/Google Voice.
I suppose then that I should just forget about waiting for that WiFi only Tab because SMS would not work on that device either. I wouldn't mind spending some money to get this going, although I don't think that I would want to get into a contract or anything like that and be stuck spending on a monthly basis, which I think all of the Wirelss companies like Sprint make you do (not sure).
For SMS and voice phone on my Tmobile Tab I use prepaid voice only Sim. The tab was flashed with Euro ROM and works very smooth and giving me ability to place voice calls and send SMS if needed. It costs me money but no monthly obligations.
BTW, I can send Sms using Sim card from my phone as well.

I guess I couldn't do anything like that correct? Is there a difference between T-Mobile and Sprint Tabs .... besides what may be the obvious, like I know Sprint is CDMA, not sure of T-Mobile. Anyway, do you think the same type of setup is possible with my Sprint device? If so, could you please describe how I would go about setting it up? Feel free to PM me if you like/want about this topic. Thanks
I have google voice installed on my wifi xoom when I try to call someone it calls my phone then when I answer it my phone calls the contact I tried to call from GV.? Is there any way to just make calls from GV? It also is the same for the browser version of GV. Texting works on both though.
Google voice is not a voice over IP service, it doesn't do calls.

okay thanks don't know if I will be rooting this one tho. Can't say I won't because I always do when I get tired of waiting for the newest update lol.
If you dont want to root, and still make voip calls with this, its easy..

install sipdroid on the xoom
install something like acrobits SIP dialer, or, you should be able to do it with your google voice account
the thread that tells you how to sync your google voice account to sipdroid is here
http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/droid-x-apps/15366-sipdroid-free-voip-via-google-voice.html
there are some issues today with pbxes servers, so it may not work right at the moment, but trust me, I have been making voip calls from my evo for months using this, and, made tons of calls from the xoom earlier in the week using this method
have fun!
cool thanks I will check that out.

I have google voice installed on my wifi xoom when I try to call someone it calls my phone then when I answer it my phone calls the contact I tried to call from GV.? Is there any way to just make calls from GV? It also is the same for the browser version of GV. Texting works on both though.

Wait... how did you get Google Voice on your Wi-Fi Xoom?
It's not in the Market.
you dont need google voice on your tablet, per se, you just need a google voice account, ad, you do the configuring from the google voice website..

Side load it. There's an older thread on this forum titled something like "I got GV working...." it includes a link where you can do a hacked version of GV that works great for SMS.
