With the option to integrate into the dialer.
Get a GV number and you will need to turn on no answer forward.
Once set up, it just works.
It won't forward all my calls?

No, just those you don't answer. You set it up so that all voice mail calls get forwarded to your Google Voice number.

Ok. I setup YouMail earlier. Guess I'll change it

You can also call Verizon and have them change your account to standard VM not advanced and you will get VM notifications back.
good luck
But I actually really like the Verizon visual voicemail app. Has anyone tried porting it from another device?
The only Nexus version was written by Motorola for the Nexus 6 only and it will not work on the 6P. Google voice works very well.

I did a search and saw nothing pertaining the NS4G. Any way to utilize google voice on wifi? This would help greatly in my international travels. CDMA most of the time is useless outside of the US, even if I force roaming.
No.

I too am interested in this. I use Google voice callback on my phone.... But it doesn't work on the tablet. It looks for the phone.

Google plus $5 Groove IP app turns the Nexus 7 into a speakerphone with unlimited calls and unlimited SMS within North America over WIFI.
There are several threads on this already, but GrooveIP or Talkatone is what you want.

Thanks Talkatone works great!! :laugh:
Possibility of an app that allows the WiFi only N7 to send & receive SMS & MMS
There are apps that allow the sending and receiving of SMS & MMS from a computer via your phone would it be possible for such an app to be created to do the same but using the N7 instead of using a computer?

Thanks, didn't know any apps were available that did that. I've gone for TabletTalk because it has call features as well.
Does the sound from the TabletTalk app get routed through the N7 or direct from the teathered phone, e.g have a wired headset plugged into phone and use N7 as the dialer using TabletTalk?

No worries, to be fair never actually taken the plunge and used either of them.
Just knew they existed !
And probably better to go for TabletTalk as its developed by an XDA member !
Have fun and glad I helped

You can do that yes. As far as I am aware the only limitation tablet talk has is that incoming audio cannot be fed through the tablet (limitation in android itself)
You can still use the mic to chat but you either need to have a headset connected to your phone (wired/bt) or you can activate your phones speakerphone through tablet talk.

Tablet Talk works great, Real shame can't use the built in mic/speaker, would use it for calls in that case.
textab lite also works well. Ive been using that today, kinda testing it out. Havent had any issues at all.
...and if you want wifi calls, GrooveIP works well.

Groove IP And Google voice are great if you live in or around the US. Sadly they are pretty much useless for us Europeans.

in the uk you can start a account on the 02 website. then set it as a favourite in chrome, simply click the favourite ,sign in and send txt messages
I have been really happy with Google Voice. SMS daily.

I like Google Voice as well for basic texting over wifi. But, you can't do mms or use the short codes in place of phone numbers.

The problem with that is you don't get replies to it, I used to use the Orange version when I was on Orange years ago.

That's Ok as I tend to take my Sony Live Key out with me for Google Music and just in case I need to make and receive a phone call, but texting seems a pain on the 4.2" screen of my Sony Xperia Arc S compared to the larger screen of the N7.
The Dev has done a good visual job with Tablet Talk as the Dialer and Messaging look like the ICS/JB Stock ones and the quick reply popup is so convenient.

I'd love to see Google Voice come to the UK as I'd use it instead of my phone in the house then use it to reply to any replies that I get when I'm out of WiFi coverage and only have 3G coverage.

Does the N7 support hands free headsets for the likes of using Google Voice or is it only headphones and the Ok device mics for that?

Is there any way around paying at&t for texting using my main phone #? I don't want to pay them to get a few texts. I am still under contract. If I wasn't I would port to Google voice.

I would still try to port your number to Voice. I did it when I still had a few months in my contract. Here's how:
1. Port your phone number to Google Voice (automated process takes exactly 24hrs to complete) (Requires your cell service account admin credentials, have them at the ready).
2. Right after you request a port, go to your carrier's website and request a new number. This'll release your main number from the contract and dump it into their 'usable number' pool.
3. Pray until you get an email from Google that your port is complete.
4. Port your number to wherever you want or keep the number on Google Voice.
NOTE: This has a high success rate, but isn't guaranteed. You may lose your number, or worse: incur early termination fees (ETFs). I've never heard of anyone incurring the ETFs while following this guide, but it is theoretically possible.
anyone have success with this?

I have used it and LOVE gv, but be aware that you won't be able to send/receive MMS anymore
Also I wouldn't recommend that you port your number, you should just get a new GV number and then give that to everyone.

So I remember T-Mobile rolled out WiFi calling. I downloaded Google hangouts dialer and tried the calling feature.
First I connected through WiFi and ran the app and made a call to a ATT cell phone. And it worked. So then I turned off WiFi and turned on mobile data. Made another call to same ATT cell phone and boom! N7 T-Mobile walking talking phone.
I'm stock rooted, google hangouts dialer. I don't know if this works on ATT or Verizon because I stunt have a Sim. My call went over 'H'. I have no LTE connection in my room.
Anyone else want to confirm. But sweet

It should work regardless of carrier as long as you have access to the Internet.

I thought it wasn't supposed to, because Google locked it down. You couldn't do this before. I don't believe this worked until volte started to roll out. And with Google integrating this into hangouts

It started working when the dialer came out. Doesn't have anything to do with the rollout of volte on some carriers.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk
The dialer included with hangouts is just a way to connect to gvoice with voip, which has been possible for years with 3rd party clients such as Grooveip
All it does is simplify the process of setting up, the concept is the same.
Literally any device that can connect to the internet can do hangout calls in the same manner, as there's no carriers involved at all. As far as they're concerned it's merely data.
What they did do was disable the method some clients, such as grooveip, used to connect to gvoice.
But there are multiple methods, existing solutions such as obitalk can still connect to gvoice via voip.
