I see there are a few threads on this subject but I wanted to know what works for you.
Edit! I got it working and it is simple.
1. Download Google Voice
2. Go to pbxes.org and register an account or you can install sip droid from the market and it will set up your account. I recommend going to their website, but if that seems to complicated just install sipdroid then disable it. You will still have your pbxes.org account.
You will need your user name which will be something like:
yourusername-200
password that you create at pbxes.org
server will be pbxes.org
Now This is setup is for CM7.
Go to settings and click on call settings
Click on Accounts
add account
and fill in the information above username,password,server
go to more options
set transport type to TCP
You may need to set your router to open port 5060
I also gave my phone better QOS, which is optional
I can make calls for free on my wifi or even over 3g!
Now i just need some tips from you guys on optimizing this.
i use SipDroid, but i have a VM set up in one of my ESX hosts at home running PBXinaFlash tied to my google voice account...so I get to control the quality of my calls and my extensions.
I took a look at that. I would do that but my extra computer i had now a htpc but if i had another one I would love to pbxflash.
Does anyone use gizmo5 successfully with wifi?
i didnt think gizmo5 was still alive
There is nothing wrong with the build in SIP client in 2.3.3. I use it, via TCP (to save battery) to my home PIAF server. Works great. Just because it didn't work for you doesn't make it crap.
Dude i'm sorry I called it crap. I just heard that the stack was not as robust.
Built-in client works best for me. I use it with pbxes.org

How do you set it up?
I too use pbxes.org but i can't get it to work on the built in client. I'm using CM7.
Lets say my user name is username-200
password is password
server is pbxes.org
what else do you have configured?
These are my other settings: (my rom is Cyanogenmod on a Captivate)
*use internet calling for all calls when data network is available
*Receive incoming calls (checked)
*transport type = TCP
When you enabled your native client to work with pbxes, did you use tcp out udp? I noticed more battery drain with native client.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I896 using XDA App
I am using tcp. Unfortunately the native client is a battery hog. My battery life went from horrible to average after I changed the keep alive interval to 30 minutes. It was set by default to 15 seconds. Once again, my rom is CyanogenMod.
After getting this working nicely with the native sip stack on CM7 I tried csipsimple and I got to say it is much better and much more robust.
cannot get it working.
I followed the directions
Can some one help me?
On cm7 nightley #73
I can help you. DO you have a G+ account? You can find and add me Todd Neumann. I'll walk you through it.
But i'll try again. Since cm7 2.3.5 sip calling has been working flawlessly.
So since your running nightly 73 your good.
You need to get a google voice account.
Go to the web page and make sure you have google chat enabled.
You now need to set up a sip account you can go to pbxes.org or install sipdroid and sync it with your gmail account.
Once you have sip droid up and going you can just forget about it or uninstall it because you have a pbxes.org account set up
Next you will need your sip credentials that you got from sipdroid that is linked to your pbxes.org account.
Username
password
server
That's about all the info you will need. I'll try to help you a little more just hit me up on a g+ account. I'll think about making a video for this since it won't be too hard to do.

thanks I added you. I am Tim Sooley.
Well, I've been using sipdroind for what seems like ever, but ever since I've got 2.3.3 installed on my phone, I've switched to the native client.
It feels way more responsive and gives me better battery life than the sipdroid.
I do miss rules (so I could set which calls go where) and SIP registration status notifications and I've considered writing an app for that (registration status), but doesn't look like there's a way to get the registration status of the settings-defined SIP profile.

Just got my TC tonight and I cant put it down. I LOVE this device. Ive never had a WM phone before but have played with them without any desire to own one. Well I really like how much can be optimized and configured, and thats not even considering all the tweaks found here.
Anyway, my current issue is that I cant get my yahoo email to work. Now, it could be that Im coming from a Blackberry Curve so my phone package is the blackberry BIS. Would this inhibit me getting my email? If so, do I have to call up ATT tomorrow and get set up on the smartphone program instead?
The POP/IMAP email access requires a normal dataplan... After that the device can configure itself for the mail access (after you enter you email adrdess in the new account creation). But if you want better useability, and more security than you should configure it manually whith IMAP access... if Yahoo! supports it...

I like my BB Curve better. I guess I have way too many things against me as a Mac user also. Its a neat phone but not what I really want.
yahoo/gmail issues
I am having a weird problem. When connected over wifi, yahoo and google connect and download mail like you'd expect.
When connected to 3G or Gprs network google and yahoo fail to connect. The phone tries to make another connection, like it does not know there is already a data connection.
I know my data connection is good at 3G, because I surf the web all day...
Any ideas will be appreciated. Thanks.
Figured it out...
Had to uncheck the "use proxy" setting on the connection profile under "proxy"
As far as I know/knew, Google Talk was incompatible with transports to other networks (MSN). However, I saw this post
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=73c73792d8500518&hl=en
Which implied to me that it actually was working. Can anyone confirm that it is, and possible give me some tips on how to set it up?
I use a free transport with mine.
use an app like Psi on the desktop, add your google talk account, do a service discovery, enter the server you want to use and attach the transport.
I use MSN and ICQ transports and it works well.
I've got it set up now, thanks! There seems to be a significant delay in contacts changing status (online/offline). I'm guessing that's normal though.
Also, is there a way to get contacts to show up by their MSN nickname, instead of their email address? Some seem to, while others are stuck as an email. Maybe it just takes time for them to change?
I am using an ICQ Transport which is working just fine, no delay (guess that depends on what transport you're using, i'm on headcounter.org ((they've got MSN too)))
You should change the addresses manually (on GTalk) i had to do so too with some of my ICQ contacts as the transport isn't exactly perfect.
I use transports to some IM networks specific for my country: Gadu-Gadu and Tlen. I use them for years and get little issues. It's really nice to have talk history from all networks in one place - accessible from WWW or mobile Gmail app.

I think Jabber doesn't store contacts names on server side - only their IDs. This is client responsibility to name IDs, so even if you name them in one Jabber client, second one won't know these names.
GTalk, on the other hand, uses Google Contacts to store names and other information. If you look into all your contacts, you will see these imported from other IMs, e.g. contact named "[email protected]" with email "[email protected]". Then you could change their names and this should affect names in GTalk app.
But this is somewhat screwed up. First: you get a lot of garbage in your contacts and you can't remove it, because then Gtalk will automatically remove Jabber contacts too. Ofc if you re-add Jabber contacts then Google Contacts will be automatically recreated.
Second: you probably want to merge IM information with already existing contacts. You could move all info from existing contacts to IM ones and then remove first ones, but this is totally stupid. Unfortunately if you will try to do it other way, then GTalk will remove your Jabber contacts ;-)
I have found a trick: you have to disable sync in your phone and modify contacts from Gmail interface. Move IM info to old contacts, remove garbage and then GTalk won't remove Jabber contacts during sync, because it will find them in other contacts.
But there is also some tricky thing. GTalk info must be stored in exactly the same way as in automatically created contacts. AFAIR it must be added as email field of private type. This is totally stupid, because Google Contacts API supports field especially for GTalk information and actually Android use it in some places, but GTalk syncing doesn't. If you add this information as GTalk field, then GTalk will remove Jabber contact or recreate garbage - I don't remember. I have added IM info in both email and GTalk fields to get full functionality.
Ahh and it's possible that Google fixed some of these issues. I was porting my contacts about year ago.

Which transport server did you use for MSN?

Sorry for the late reply, I sent in my N1 for a replacement, and haven't gotten the new one yet so I've been using my iPhone.
I used jabber.hot-chilli.net which gave me a bit of delay, then headcounter.org as it was recommended above. Headcounter didn't convert emails to nicknames like hot-chilli did (sometimes), so I switched back. Still looking for alternatives.
Edit: Actually, I remember there being a problem after I switched to headcounter.org, causing Talk to force close. Something with how the contact names are parsed, I saw in another thread.
does this work anymore for anyone?
I'm unable to get any services listed when I'm connected to GTalk.
Tested several transport servers but neither are returning any services.
If I connect to an other jabber server services are returned from the same transport servers..
Use Psi to add the transport. Set it up to connect to Google's servers and sign in. When you go to add the transport, manually put in another server. Use jabber.hot-chilli.net, they use an updated Jabber server that parses names correctly so they don't crash Google Talk.
You'll have to authorize each contact once the transport is added, but Google put in an authorization limit per day, so only 40 or so will go through. The rest you'll see with a little red question mark on their status icon. Right click on them and go to authorize and resend the authorization manually. This may take a couple of days depending on how many contacts you have. As they authorize you'll see them show up in Google Talk.
Also, you may want to add their IM address to your actual contacts. Open GMail and find a contact, add a Google Talk IM listing, and put in their_email\[email protected] When you're signed in on your phone you'll see their status next to their name in Messages, Phone, and Contacts. Its handy.

So far every app i've tried all require me to input my login credentials which i don't feel safe doing.
Does anyone know of any applications that uses Google authentication to tricker a GV call back? im trying to use this with Sipdroid for true VOIP calling over data.
Thanks guys.
Does any one use google voice with sip gate here?

AFAIK you cannot trigger a callback with and unauthorized client since the clients spoof the GV webapp's callback feature (not entirely certain on that one.). So you will have to trust one of the current apps, use the gv mobile website or wait for/request a client to use OAuth or some other protocol that does a similar method of authentication.
Thanks guys.

I am have that exact setup: GVoice->Sipgate->Sipdroid.
Works great on wifi but kinda sucky over 3g. But hey it is free...!
Yeah ill just have to create a throwaway account for this since i dont feel safe passing my credentials to a third party app.
Anyone else having problems with Yahoo mail syncing with the Das Bamf Sense 3 rom?
i'm also having trouble, and i've not rooted my tbolt yet.
My yahoo mail hasn't synced in three days. At first i thought i messed something up because i had just rooted my phone, however, it seems i am not alone with this problem. Sure wish a fix/solution was out there.
Yep

I thought I was the only one having a problem. I'm not rooted either. Totally stock.
I don't think it matters whitch ron, I had to download yahoo app to get mail. They changed something on imap

Yeah, I usually check my mail on my phone every morning (stock ROM, stock Mail app). This morning it wasn't showing any new emails (despite the fact that I get emails from Newegg every day). I thought it might be an LTE thing, but it wasn't working on wifi, either. I cleared all my data, deleted the account on the Mail app. Tried again, and it was telling me how many messages were on the server, but it wouldn't download any of them.
Later, I force quit Mail and cleared it's data. Now instead of presenting a variety of account options, I have just Microsoft Exchange and Other listed. I picked other, put in my credentials, and it keeps coming back with an Authentication failed message.
It could be a problem on Yahoo's end

i just tried their old pop settings also, with no better luck.
Count me as someone having a problem with this as well. I noticed it a week ago Saturday as I had just installed a new ROM and couldn't get Yahoo to sync.
Try this I've been using Mail and I think you might like it. Check it out from your Android phone:

I got tired of the problems pretty sweet app or current old troublesum way..
Setting up IMAP on your mobile device To set up IMAP on your mobile device please use these settings:
Incoming Server -imap.mail.yahoo.com
Outgoing Server -smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Incoming Port -993 (requires SSL) Outgoing Port -465 (requires SSL/TLS)
Username: full email address (for example [email protected] or [email protected]) Password: the password you login to Yaho with. If you are having trouble setting up IMAP on your mobile device we recommend reviewing your phones instruction manual or contacting your mobile provider for support

I'm having trouble synching on my TB and my wife's Incredible. Is this a fluke or is yahoo blocking IMAP on purpose?
So this will only apply for Yahoo mail. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK
[1] Turn off SSL and use port 110
or
[2] Set incoming server to pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk port with SSL on 995
Yahoo has apparently a bad or expired certificate which is why people are seeing all types of errors like "Invalid Login" or when adding account "Unauthorized User please try your user name and password again" ect ect.
Again use at your own risk this was information from Yahoo support.

That solution is for POP email, not IMAP. Big difference.
With that being said, I have no solution for IMAP. Using POP you'll be able to get your mail, it just won't be "pushed" to your phone.
well it works with cm7
didn't notice. I like the yahoo mail app better. More features and notifications on new messages.
the yahoo mail app is great...it has push notifications
Seems like this is a universal problem amongst carriers and devices. I'm surprised there hasn't been any press about this.
I called Verizon they said yahoo is updating there system so I think that messed
with HTC settings some how I used the yahoo mail from the market place
earlier today and it works fine and I know stock android email also works
on my back up cm7 stock I'm looking for stock email apk that would work

I was told the same thing by verizon rep as well :/
- i just got my thunderbolt sat. and after my initial yahoo setup
using the htc email app, it worked great however I ended up
installing a bamf rom and since then it has never worked.
I'm only able to send but not receive
if you can find a stock email apk that works please update us
I would really appreciate it.
Ok I fixed mine. Easy!
Downloaded Yahoo mail from the market. Installed but I never opened it or used it. It somehow fixed the settings for my htc mail app for Yahoo.
My Yahoo mail now pushes like it did before!

We recently changed email providers and I am trying to update the new server info on my Galaxy Note 2. Not a rooted phone and am using the stock email app with existing email accounts (4 accounts) already setup on the phone. The user names and passwords are not changing, so I am entering only the new incoming and outgoing server info. for each account. After entering the new server info and teh account tries to setup, I get a message "incorrect username or password," which hasn't changed. I think what is happening is the user name in the field is only part of the email addess. The user name field is grayed out so I cannot edit it. All of the other fields can be edited. I contacted Samsung mobile tech support, but they said it is an Android app so they can't do anything. How can I change the user name without deleting the account and adding it again? Thank you.
I think it would have been actually quicker to delete the account & add it as you want it than it was to come & ask this question.
Its very quick to add an account.
Particularly if you let it set up in auto mode.
Why are you so against doing it that way.

I dislike deleting the accounts, because I will have 4 of them to setup again. Yeah, it's quick to setup an account, but there are a lot of setting features to tweak for each one. I would like to avoid having to tweak everything. I used to use K9 email, which does allow access to edit the username, but the Note 2's username field doesn't which is odd. K9 started to give me polling issues which drained the battery really fst so I had to stop using it. Also, K9 doesn't setup exchange accounts, and I need that for my work email. That's why I am using the stock app. Was hoping someone would know a workaround.
Yes I know what you mean with all the tweaking.
So much easier if you have two phones/devices with all your personal setup so you can reference quickly from one to other.
