It wasn't working for most people outside the U.S.
What was weird was I didn't see the update in the My Apps list. I had to manually search for Google Voice. Then it showed me the update for it.

The latest Google Voice Blog post shows hope for people outside the US though. One of the things they celebrated in the post was making Voice available to all US users.
Then they go on to say they are working hard to make it available to more people. But then again, more than a year ago they said they were working hard to get it into Canada. Maybe we can blame the CRTC or something?
perfect for me!
Awesome, I'm up and running again!
minor google voice issue
experiencing a minor glitch with voice. when i click back from the main messages screen it does the screen zoom thing but then comes back to the message screen. only after i click back again does the app exit. any else experiencing this? i thought they fixed this with an update a while back.

Hi, I am not sure if this is the right place to ask this question, but here it is anyway. My brother has gmail and so do I. He has Motorola Droid whereas I have x10. In gmail he has option to make phone calls and I don't. Not sure why? Does it has something to do with the phones we are using or something else?
thanks
Bikram

The update of 2.1 will be here in our life time!!
I am gussing it's Google Voice.
No, its gmail phone call not google voice.
It works for me (in Canada), try going to this link and installing the voice plugin, then see if you can do it...
http://www.google.com/chat/voice/
I don't understand why this works in Canada, while Google Voice doesn't...
Edit:
I tried it in the morning on the office computer and after installing it didn't come up. I just did it and it worked at home's computer.
I thought you meant at first that you have it on your phone..
You are probably referring to this: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2010/08/25/MNGI1F37PS.DTL
Google announced yesterday that people can now make phone calls from within Gmail (not Google Talk). I think this only works in USA and Canada, and maybe also a 2.1/2.2 feature.

I called my cellphone from Gmail on my laptop this morning. I'm in Ottawa, so either Canada's been annexed by the U.S without anyone knowing D) , or it works for Canadian clients.
No idea how to get it to work on my X10 though. The link posted by chris_knows seems to download a Windows client plugin (or at least it does in xScope Browser), not something that can be installed onto Android.

It works for me too...but when I try calling myself, it gives me a California area code, so I think I'm just gonna stick to calling land lines haha.
But for the X10, my understanding is that it can only be done through Google Voice, which is only available in the U.S.
Works in Canada from the desktop same as Skype does. This is not Google Voice.
Since the Google Voice app is available in the Canadian app market though (don't know why) you could try going to the Google Voice webpage and creating an account if you use a VPN with a US server. That's how I got my Sipgate account.

Again, all the articles state it's only available in the US, but I (and others) have used it here in Canada (though as chris_knows states, it gives a US phone number as your source number).
Anyone know if users in the US have any way to make such calls via their Android phone, or is it purely desktop-based at the moment?
Still waiting for Google Voice in Canada... hopes this brings it soon.
I tried from the same computer, but my account didn't work whereas my brothers account works. Still didn't get why its not working

Manage to call my x10 from my laptop gmail account in Singapore. Wonders if there is anyway to call from the x10.
Looks like to call from android phone, you need to use google voice application. Too bad google voice not available in Singapore yet.
I'm using GV on the X10 now from Canada. Bit of a work around to set it up but it's working great.

There hasent been much talk about this and I consider it a HUGE problem on the xoom especially since its a awesome device for texting. I have to assume its just a issue google will fix quickly because oviously they want their google voice to work on their new flagship OS.
All i have heard is that even manual installing the voice app from other android versions will simply force close. Yes the voice interface from the website works but obviously that it kludgy.
Anyways hopefully someone will post some good news. It could be there just hasent been any news on it yet.

Someone just posted in another thread a response from Google that it does not work but they will put in a feature request.
EDIT: It is in the Themes and Apps forum which is actually where this post should be: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=968226
I came across this video on youtube and this guys seems to be running a t-mobile tab using voice+3g (i think, not sure if that's what he means): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZ4EDRLaILk
Of course he just shows off the tab running web and dialing while on H/3G, he does not explain how he got it done. I went ahead and sent him a message asking how he did it. My guess is that he is running google voice not sure, if anyone else is running google voice and is exactly as this guys is showing off please advise.
Did not want to get anybodies hopes up, just found it interesting. Lets see what he says if he replies.
Thanks for the pointer. I remember that video from a while back, like November. I think he is using a voip application, not the dialer.apk, but I could be wrong.
I just got a report from a member in China who gets voice +3g data with one modem. He is using a tab he purchased in Chicago, and a China Unicom sim. Someone in Isreal said they do too, but I didn't get the sim provider.
Bottom line - it's possible, just not in the US with T-Mobile tab and sim.

did not seem him launching any VOIP app he was online and just clicked on the phone tab thats on the browser and he just started dialing.
wonder what kind of modems they are using....
WTF

Not seems to be a VOIP App... don't know!
But I just put a GUIDE of how to place and receive calls on your GT via VOIP using your Google Voice account. Also you could Forward the Call on settings to your SIP# so if you place your SIM on your tab and you could get Forwarded the Call to your SIP# and it will enter via VoIP!
It's a great solution until we get another solution!

Got my new verizon s7 sat. I can't get Gmail to push new emails, it only works if I open the app and manually refresh. I have tried wiping cache and data for the app, ensured that the sync Gmail in settings >accounts is on.... which it seems to get hung up there occasionally, I see the circle but it isn't spinning. I have turned on all the settings in the app too

As far as I have seen, this problem has been around since January sometime. No it has not been fixed though according to this article they know what the issue is. I don't know what they are waiting for to fix this. I have heard Inbox is working better. You can look into that if its urgent enough.

Yeah, I don't know what they are dragging their feet with. According to this google forum I found it is still an on going problem.

One of the suggestions in there is to use CloudMagic. It seems to be helping with instant notifications for those of us that need to have emails notify of us instantly.
Hope this is helpful.

I think it is a Marshmallow bug...
Well it appears to be working again, I cracked my screen already on my phone, so I got a new one through insurance. Fired it up last night and the Gmail app is pushing as normal not sure if it was an update , I had the app set to stop syncing before maybe it worked with the old phone after an update , regardless it is working now

Nothing happens when I tap the send button. Anyone else having similar issues?
Yes, I am experiencing the same issue. A temporary workaround until a fix is produced is to enable "Send using Enter" in the settings.
Same here. I thought it was only me
Me too, I am back on the stock client for now. From what I can tell Textra needs to adjust touch placement for the notification bar. I was going to send them an email since they have been super responsive in the past... then I thought they probably hate me right now. lol
I noticed that you basically have to tap a CM(1/4") or two under what you actually want to touch. I'm sure they'll get it fixed soon once the device is in more users hands.
Ditto...also can't swipe to delete unless I increase the font size to 150% (Settings - Customize Look)
Experiencing this as well!

Understood, adb hasn't always been my friend either and definitely had some trouble with getting this one connected as well. Hopefully Textra will come out with an official update shortly. They are usually pretty good in that regard.

I couldn't stand using the Google messenger app anymore... so I spent a lot longer than I should have doing the ADB commands... I had to use an older version of the Android SDK install I had on one of my computers...lol
It works and yeay... still sad I had to do it. lol
Still can't get the app to work. Super frustrating.
