Hoping someone can help me out with settings, or maybe this just isn't going to work for me. I have messenger on my g tab and laptop, but when I hit menu-video to call the person on the laptop, it doesn't ring them or connect. I am sure I am missing something. Same goes for when I try to call from the laptop to the account on the g tab.
I have tried 3 different ROMs now, and currently trying to run vegan.
OK, so maybe I should ask better.
I can video call between my laptop and DroidX, when I call for connection from either, I can respond.
However, whether I call from my Gtab or try calling the Gtab from the PC, it won't "dial out". Am I missing something?

I am trying to get VOIP to work on my Fuze, and it has just been one problem after another. But my main problem is that it seems to be flaky I think it disconnect from the VOIP but still said it is connected. So i can call out and it reconnects and it all works. But no one can call in and i haft to go in to the phone settings and then internet turn it to off then back on again to whenever avalible, then they can call in for awile untell it disconnect again.
When i reset my divice sometimes is comes back on as connected and other times it come back on disconnected and i haft to go back to the phone setting and turn VOIP off and on again.
Is this a problem for everyone, or just me?
Oyeah i am using sipgate as my VOIP provider
Any Help would be much appreciated
Anyone have any suggestions?
bad connection? Mobile/3G/2G connection or wifi?
hard reset?
It might be a bad connection I will also do a hard rest.
So do you have any suggestions, if it is a bad connection. So it will automatically log back in what the connection is available again.
I am using Internet Calling 21109 to hack it. and then using a program call Sip conf tool to setup my VOIP settings. Is this the best way to do this or do you suggest something better?
Thanks

I'm having the same issue you are (I'm using wifi). I'm playing around with some registry settings trying to fix it - will let you know if I find something that helps.
I'm also using the same tools to set it up as you are - and those are indeed the best ones.
Good to know am not alone with this problem. Hopefully we can find a solution.

Who is your service provider? Are you on ATT? And if you are on ATT, which ROM are you using?
VOIP on Windows Mobile
I have struggled for two years trying to do this, with countless releases. I eventually just bought a second wireless voip phone that works great, and was inexpensive. Not a great solution. I can get it to work, however the call quality is terrible, and the client is flaky as can be. I also dont like the way the dialer makes you select voip or provider and then stays on it. I have tried a few third party software apps such as fring, and Xbeam, and these worked a whole lot better. In addition, most voip clients are speaker only. You can use a bluetooth headset, and that helps alot. I guess what I am trying to say is that unless you love endlessly searching for a solution, or are hell bent on getting this working, I would save your time and work on something else. PM me and I can send you the info on the phone that I got.

the problem with VoIP is that Voice travels over IP networks in packets in the same manner as data, so when you talk over an IP network your conversation is broken up into small packets. These voice and data packets travel over the same network with a fixed bandwidth. So its unreliable and doesn't provide a mechanism to ensure data packets are delivered in sequential orderhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VoIP#Challenges
wish i had real info for you, i was listening to an Adam Corrolla podcast and he was going off about VoIP.. If you were fortunate enough to be connected to a DS1 line aka T1 line, you wouldn't experience the $hitty quality.. but they cost several hundred thousand..

I wouldn't mind going 3ed party,
I tried some a wile back but the problem i ran in to was that nothing else interfaced with them. Like in my contacts if i said call this person it would use the build in phone software not the VOIP software. I am not sure if there is a work around or not for that.
I think it was skype and Nimbuzz
it seemed like nimbuzz got it to work in the normal speaker. I will haft to go back an check
Whenever I make outgoing calls to the 'internet number' in GB, I can't hear anything from whoever I call and he hear me either. I use Gizmo 5 as my SIP account and I know that the calls go through because Gizmo 5 deducts a penny each time I call someone.
I know that there are simple solutions like using SIPDroid or Google Voice Callback but I just want to use native SIP client over wifi (I'm only using SIP in places I have no signal). I've already tried searching in the forums and in google if this is a known issue and how to fix it (without using 3rd party apps) but I can't find anything (the only things I'm finding is how to set up SIP over 3g and that requires 3rd party apps).
Can anyone help me on this please? Again, I just want to use the built in GB SIP client. Everything works fine (I can receive phone calls fine) and the only problem is that I can't hear anything from whoever I'm calling and the person I'm calling can't here me either.
Thanks for your help!
check your router to see if it supports NAT or things like that.
even better, test it with you PC to see if you get 2 way audio.
it common to have 1 way audio on SIP calls. and its usually down to the router not able to route the RTP traffic back to you.

Thanks for the answer! This kinda sucks since I'm mostly using this in my university's library where I have no signal and I can't control the router. I'll try this at home though tonight.
When I receive calls in the library me and the other person can hear each other fine. How is that different from placing calls?
Hello!
I recently got a Droid Eris to replace my aging Rooted G1, and am got it all set up on Verizon. My intention was to use Skype for all calls and not get a voice plan, as I already use Skype as my business line anyways.
I installed the hacked .apk, and after several initial troubles got a call to go through over 3g. However since then, unless I am on wi-fi, I have massive issues making and sending calls over 3g.
When calls come in, Skype rings, I hit answer, and it goes into the screen like you are in the call however it keeps ringing and never actually answers the call. From that point on, unless i restart Skype, it just keeps popping up that call as incoming in the top taskbar.
Outgoing most of the time just fail to go through.
Is this normal with the hacked Skype, or am I just having weird problems?
(Note: I have reinstalled Skype twice already)
Thanks!
Bumping this to see if anyone knows anything. I got about 2 hours left to cancel the pre-paid plan and still get all my $ back, so if anyone knows hit me back!
Thanks!
Same here arrrrrrghhhhj

Would it be possible to somehow answer a call from a smartphone on a tablet?
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 and I'm thinking of buying a Note 10.1 2014 Ed.
I want to be able to use the Note for a lot more than just a tablet (including a universal remote, xbox control, music station...) and I was wondering if it was possible to answer and hang up a phone call using it.
If you're not following well, lets say I get a phonecall on my S3, but it's at the other end of the room or downstairs or somewhere I couldn't get to in time to answer... could I use my tablet to answer it, talk to the person on the other end and then hang up at the end?
Perhaps using an App which would send all signals over wifi...

While I'm seeking an answer for my thread, what I'm trying to accomplish is almost the opposite of you. I'm trying to take my smartphone and make it appear as a tablet from AT&T's perspective so I don't have to pay the "phone" part of the plan.
What you're trying to accomplish is pretty easy with Google Voice combined with Talkatone or Groove IP.
1) Set up your Google Voice account with a phone number
2) Tell everyone you changed your number to the Google #.
3) In GVoice settings, set the forwarding to your carrier's number AND to your Google Chat account.
4) Install and sign into your TABLET using Talkatone or Groove IP (Do not install Talkatone or Groove IP on your phone - or else it might conflict on which device to send the call to).
When someone calls your GVoice number, your tablet and phone will both ring (starting with your tablet). You can choose which device to answer with. You can also make your home phone ring and your mom's phone ring all at the same time and answer with whatever you want with the proper forwarding numbers.
For me right now, my phone (not my tablet) is signed into my GVoice account using the Talkatone. When someone calls my GVoice #, my Talkatone responds first (either because data is more responsive or google decides to try data first) then my phone rings. This way I can choose to hang up my phone and answer using Talkatone to enable VOIP instead of using my minutes.
Hi guys
Just wandering if anyone can throw some light on the reason my gear s3 refuses to voice dial, it understands my request no issues and displays the command on the screen
" Call dave" for example, the s3 hears it, displays it correctly
there is one contact with dave who has 1 number assigned
the s3 thinks for a second or 2 then displays " i did not get that" or " who do you want to call" it simply refuses to read contacts
stupid thing, it just displayed everything it needed but it just refuses to work, initially i thought contacts would be transferred to the watch, now i realise its a server thing but this has been like this now for a week since i got it so i cant see it being a server down issue
The phone i am using is a S7 edge with latest update and it is not running anything other than standard firmware and a square home from end, which is the w10 look
i tried resetting the watch but no joy, i tried changing the watch language to US no joy, checked the phone is syncing contacts to samsungs storage
and doing a search on the net actually brings up very little info on this issue
has anyone got any thoughts, here in the Uk having a device that voice dials whilst driving is a real must, i have BT in the car but dialing it is a pain so the watch would be a real help... if it would freakin work
TBH i wish i could use Cortana for voice assist, but that aint gona happen
The more i try different voice commands the more the issue points to lack of sync with contacts... what am i missing ?? just tried to send a text via voice and the s3 watch cant find any contacts
Hmm i had an almost whilst messing with the thing just now, i changed language from English auto to just English... now when i ask it to call a name the watch displays ( Contacts syncing ) that is as far as i have got, it still refuses to dial anyone, and checking my contacts in the watch they are all there
i have a similar issue, when I say call XXX, its then says "syncing contacts" and sites there, If manually go into contacts and call someone its fine, why it decides it needs to sync contacts at this point I dont know, why, must be a bug.
