How do I make a call from the google voice app on my android device? Is there a way I can call one of my contacts?
Also, can I use google voice without it asking me to use google voice or my regular cell # each time? But I only want to use google voice when I call someone from the google voice app.
Thanks!
anyone know?
Hi,
You can use google talk, the new version supports voice/video-voice.
By default its disable, you can enable it to click on your own "name" in the contact list.
There is a option to enable voice!

I'm looking for either just a decent Google voice SMS app or one that I can choose certain contacts to use my standard service and some to use voice sms.

I'm not sure if this is a new google feature or an issue on my end.
I use the native messaging app to send out sms to certain people to display my carrier provided number and the google voice app to send out sms to other people to display my google voice number. i discovered that regardless of using google voice or the native messaging app(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1507720), it was going through as my google voice number (e.g. google voice and/or native messaging app sends sms as google voice number). this is what i originally thought was happening until i discovered that if i send an sms with the native messaging app to another user with google voice installed, it goes through as my google voice number. if i send an sms with the native messaging app to someone without google voice installed, it displays my carrier provided number.
*obviously if i send an sms from the google voice app, it shows up as the google voice number*
i'm not exactly sure how to fix this. i could be completely wrong in the scenario above because i've only tested it with several other friends. i have made no changes to my google voice web settings, nor my google voice app and native messaging app.
any help is greatly appreciated.
i'm on verizon, gs3 android 4.1.1
even with google voice uninstalled and the phone rebooted, sending from the native messaging app sends through as my google voice number
bump
anyone?
Install the Google voice app and in the app settings. Click on send text through app instead of through phone messaging app. This might help

Hey guys i was wondering if anyone could assist me, I keep trying to set up google voice so i can text over wifi with my google number. I link it to my verizon wireless phone number and set up the options so it never uses google voice for voice mail but i can't seem to get the compose option to show up with texts. I made it so it syncs my text messages but nothing works. I cannot use google voice to text one my HTC Rezound or 2nd Gen Nexus 7. Any options to assist?
Honestly Google voice sucks. I use all the time but it lag, and sometimes you get your voice mail late and text late. Maybe it's just me. Just use Facebook messenger for text. It works. Save you an app space.

I know in settings you can pick the default sms app as something other than hangouts but there is no option to use google voice as the default. Does anyone know how to use just google voice?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Or to show your Google Voice number as the SMS source, if we have to use another SMS app. I don't want people to use my carrier phone number. Or to even see it.
I've been texting my sister and she asked when I got a new phone number! Argh.

I am looking for simple app to trigger Google Voice callback, like a Google Voice dialer but NOT integrated into the standard phone dialer. Back in 2010 I had one on my Android phone which would allow me to dial Google Voice calls when I wanted to. I seldom use Google Voice, but when I do I want to be able to initiate a call with an App and not have to go to the Google Voice website. I am fine with Google Voice ringing my mobile phone as I have free incoming minutes. I do NOT want an App that integrates Google Voice with my phone. I very seldom use Google Voice and I don't want an extra step every time I make a phone call.
Does anybody know of such an App? I think the App I am thinking of started with a GV and it is not available on Google Play any longer. I remember the author came out with a paid App which did basically the same thing but the old free App still worked, if you could find it somewhere on the Internet. But it does not have to be that App. Any App where I can initiate Google Voice calls in the App without tying into the Dialer would be fine. But NOT Talkatone because I just want the App to ring back on my mobile phone number.
Does anybody know if older versions of Google Voice had an option to not integrate with the Phone app in Android? If so what version had this feature and where can I find it? Thanks.
I am looking for an alternative to the Guidology Voice Callback Phone Dialer app:
