there is no hardware to make phone calls over 2G/3G network
groove IP works flawlessly

hmm, I dont think you need special hardware for this.
It's probably just locked somehow.

Nvm
groove Ip works great

I don't understand what you need? Could you explain a little more?
The tab as sold does not have a phone capability in US tabs.
If someone calls i would like to use my blackberry to answer the phone. So the tab should not be acceptong incoming calls but
still use dataacces( so i can not somple put it on flight mode)

You could try flashing the radio for the T-Mobile US Tab, as this has data but no voice capability and it seems that this has been disabled in the modem.bin.
Look for Rotohammers modem switcher.

Dave
I dont know where the tab is from, if not an US tab, then just take out the simcard

Not exactly a good idea if you still want to have 3G data - which the OP does!

Yes. I still want to use data. Just no phone(most of then time. Would be nice to switch on-off)

I have a german SGT with 3 SIM Multi Cards from my provider (O2).
-I have incoming calls only for SIM card 1 in my cellular phone,
-SIM card 2 is used in my 3G router and
-SIM card 3 is used in my built in 3G modem at my HP notebook.
I configured my SIM cards with the O2 web interface, there was no need to configure something at my phone.
so ever since this morning my tablet stop working i can no longer make phone calls from my tablets i have 2 of them. i destroy the imei file in the tablet so i dnt understand how tmobile was able to stop my tablet from making voice calls. when ever i try to make calls it would say at the subscribers request this phone does not accpet incoming calls. so im wondering did they block the simcard from making calls becuz i took the tablet sim card and inserted it into my hd7 and its still the same message has this happen to anyone yet and if it did any solutions are what you guyz think i should do?

You need a sim with a voice plan on it.
i have one the wierd thing was though my tablet simcard had voice on it and able to make calls but now they disable it lol. i guess they realized the glitch lol. but i have my voice unlimited data simcard i can use in my tablet. its just that it was kinda kool that all three simcards had voice even though two were only for tablets lol.
Hi, I know there are many Tablet SMS applications, but I want to know is there a way to make calls from your N7?
Preferably using my normal contract phone number, so people know its me.
Im sure I've seen it somewhere on the web on a video I saw, but havent a clue what it was called.
Im from the UK so no US only apps please.
Much appreciated.
You mean by Sim or by Wifi? If sim, impossible.

No I mean a little bit like TabletTalk, where it connects to your phone for example.
I don't mind whether its VoIP or whatever, I just want to be able to make a call from my Nexus7, that uses my phones number.
IVE SEEN IT on a Video which makes it even more annoying.

Tablet talk will allow you to answer calls as well you just need a bluetooth headset connected to your actual phone, it works in the same sense as the sms you phone is still the one connecting you are just controlling your phone with the N7

Thanks for your reply mate,
On the Video I saw it was using some sort of VoIP and used the N7's mic, no bluetooth mic needed.
I know that the connection goes through the phone which is fine, as how else would it get the number etc, but I don't want to buy a bluetooth headset.
It may have been GrooveIP but I think thats US only any UK alternatives?
THANKS !
EDIT - It was GrooveIP, what is the difference between GrooveIP and tablet talk?
As tablet talk is made by an XDA user and would love to support them rather than a company.
I've used groove IP on my phone and it does work in Canada but the sound can be glitchy. You have to sign in through Google to set it up, haven't tried it on nexus though.

It is possible to call from SIM if you have a N7 with 3G.
Some Internet providers have also an Internet+Voice option that you can enable. With a specific rom or application that can pop dialer I am pretty sure that you can make calls with your Internet/Voice SIM. I didn't activate the option but I did activate an Internet + Messages option and sending / receiving them work like a charm. I'm pretty sure with a Voice subscription you can do that too, but do keep in mind, if you have a SIM slot.

It is US only because of the laws that GrooveIP must follow. It is the same reason Google Voice is so hard to deal with, because Google provides it for free but has to dodge some laws here and there. Google may require payment after 2013 (they have secure 2013 as free, though).

Have research Samsung tablet manuals and only 3G/4G models but does not say that you can dial.
Note 10.1 3g version you can make and receive phone calls... Apparently the galaxy tab 10.1 series also can but the dialler is hidden and you need to patch the system to get it...
Samsung Galaxy Tab 7" - 1st tab - can also make and receive calls, but then it was basically an oversized Galaxy S..
Note 10.1 n8000 can make calls
Make calls on any tablet with groove ip, if u have a Google voice account.
Assuming most people would have their cell phones with them when using their tablets why would anyone want to make a phone call with their tablet?

Good in a pinch when you don't or the battery dies... Also good so you are carrying 1 device instead of 2.....

Because u can..
I don't keep my phone on me in the house. Usually it's on the table by the front door. I can hear it ring but it almost always goes to voice mail before I can get to it. It would be nice to be able to answer it with my tablet, which I do carry around all the time.
With google voice #, you can use the note 10.1 with grooveip or talkatone as esincho etated. I use talkatone personally, send txt etc. Makes it great when phone is in other room or out of reach. Also sometimes my phone does drop signal so very convenient for that.
The Tab 7.7 3G can also make calls. Size is much more portable, too.
Model is P6800.
Over here in Australia where wifi access points (public and/or free) are VERY rare.... Its all ggod that you can use your wifi to make and receive calls but a bit embarrassing when you're out on a lonely road with no wifi and you find you need a phone. At this point I'm gonna say that a wifi call enabled tablet is as useless as tits on a boar pig....
As such I don't call any wifi only tab, phone capable because when you need it most, rest assured there will be no wifi available....
help for phone option
Hello... I'm new here. I bought the new n8020 LTE (France). I saw that we can make calls with this tablet but my operator SFR have blocked this function. I know i can use SFR Libertalk or CsipSimple app but i really want to make this tablet as a phone. Any suggestion? I'm already rooted and have already test a lot of firmwares. thx
If you have Galaxy Note 8 WiFi version, you can actually set it up to make phone calls. In the video you can see how easy it is to make your Galaxy Note 8 WiFi version to place calls to landline or any phone numbers. It won't replace your mobile phone, but you can see that you can use your Galaxy Note 8 as a backup to making calls.

Cool!!! I would only use it as as backup, but nevertheless, cool!!!

I'm more interested in receiving calls. Will it do that? How does this differ from using Skype or google voice?
you recieve calls via your google voice phone number; thats how grooveip handles phone calls, incoming and outgoing..
