Hello everyone,
I currently have the latest rom from cyanogen and was wondering if someone could hack this Voice plus beta rom(I just received from TMOBILE). So we can all use the new features on a rooted G1,Mytouch!
yea, I'm dying to test this too but am afraid will lose root... any solution?!?
It's just better call quality which is achieved by flashing that new radio from the DM blah blah that Tmo released.Don't bother with unrooting it's still 1.6 not 2 point anything.

No dude not that update!
Here are the new features with this:
T-Mobile Voice Plus Beta Features:
* Call Divert: Carve out a little peace and quiet by sending selected numbers straight to voicemail without ringing your phone.
* Call Defer: Let callers know you’re busy and schedule a convenient time for you to call them back. Send them a text message that acknowledges their call and that you will respond at a later time.
* Visual Voicemail: Easily manage your voicemail! View a list of who left a voicemail, with the time of the message and its length. Choose which to listen to now and which to review later.
* City ID: Get more information about the calls you receive. The city and state information of incoming calls is displayed.
Yes you WILL lose root. Here is the file if anyone wants to try to un-nbh it, having problems with un-nbh'ing it myself, but maybe you'll have better luck.

You would give up root just for that?
Just wait till enom or one of them add those.

I awlays thought that it was crappy of the G1 that I couldnt see who left the voicemail only the damn icon. Made me almost wish I had my bb storm back
All of these features have already been done. I mean, send calls directly to voicemail? There's an option for that in stock Android...
Call defer might be new. haven't seen an app that does it.
Visual Voicemail has been a T-Mo app in the market for over a year.
City ID has been an app in the market since a month after launch.
I think that you can extract .nbh files, but I can't figure out how.

Er, search the market for "visual voicemail". T-Mobile has an app for you.
Better yet, sign up for Google Voice, and get text transcription as well.

I mean come on how MANY voicemails do you actually get? i get maybe 2-4 a month if that!
Just wait a bit enom will more than likely release this, as he does with all the OTA updates and Official Carrier ROMs. Its common sense you will LOOSE ROOT if you install. Everytime a new ROM or update appears, I keep seeing the same question. It isnt worth loosing ROOT over, just to see what city someone is calling? Come on its good news, but thats all it is
I joined the beta test team.
I joined, but I don't wanna flash it. They combined the Tmo OTA with the app downloader for the beta plus apps. i wish they had just put out the app. i've got the NBH file ripped out with a program called psas. but now the files are .nb files. I have SDK installed, but really have no idea what I'm doing. just need to open the system.nb file I guess..
Help??
Yeah...and then on top of the fact that it wasn't just an app like was suggested when we signed up for the beta, the beta release actually has a bug where you can't install the maps update...I mean really, why wouldn't you make the ROM with the latest software installed already for your testers...It can't be to difficult, the Chefs here do it in their spare time for free.
can anyone make a .zip of this..?? i only want the features... not to lose root
I'm trying

I've got the rom pulled apart so I could get the app out of it, but I'm stuck after breaking down the .nbh file. I have a few files now, system.nb, radio.nb, boot... and a few others.
I just can't figure out how to get into these files and pull the apps out.
all we need is the tmo app downloader to download the voice mail plus app...
I singed up to beta test, but I'm not loosing root to do it!
Speaking of Google Voice... someone send me an invite.. edited
I just got an invite! - thanks shumanak

probably rename to .img and unyaffs.
I just flashed it. Its kinda nice actually. When you get a phone call 3 buttons popup answer defer and voicemail. I tried the defer button and you can do a one touch text like call back later or in a meeting. Witch is good for driving I guess (I text and drive anyway) visual. Voice mail is adder as an extra tab in contacts menu way better then the visual voice mail alp in the market. Wonder if I will get over the air updates with this build? Clashing the nbh was strange also seemed to have an extra step then a normal nbh found here for rc29 or atleast mine did it twice? Other then that its stock. Wish it was 2.1
edit
Sorry for the spelling guys I'm on my phone......
gOSH, i want this.. come on devs! rock this! show this t-mo bastards who the bosses are (the customers), lol!
i would love the visual voicemail app... we dont have anything like that in canada yet (except iphone) .. might have to grab this rom and play with it once i get home..
Dear friends,
As you probably realized after buying your android phone, the internal Messaging application for SMS/MMS does not really support SMS/MMS delivery notification.
Sure you can enable it in the settings but it does not notify you when the recipient really received the sms. You have to go into the conversation and either check the icon next to the envelop or hold down on one message and choose view report to get the status "Received" or "Pending".
After my frustration I decided to download the sources of the Messaging application from Google and enhance it so it would notify. I managed to do that after a lot of hours trying and coding so I wanted to share this.
This is the original froyo Messaging application compiled from source for the generic emulator so it should work on all 2.2 ROM phones.
What it does:
- If delivery reports are enabled on the messaging settings it will light up the screen and notify for incoming sms or mms messages when received using sound and vibration.
- The notification sound and the vibration settings are not the ones defined for incoming sms's but those in general phone settings. That way you can adjust the sound and vibration and distinguish it from incoming messages.
- It will give a message on status bar with Incoming sender the original recipient and in the details his/her specific number: "John: The message to +3088999... has been delivered".
- If you click on the notification it will take you to the specific conversation and clear the notification.
- If a second delivery report arrives from another recipient it will create a new notification not removing the first.
- If you get into the messages the delivery reports will be cleared (it means you read them).
- For MMS's it will only notify when the recipient got the message, (not when he read it. You can still view if he read it on the conversation details, I though it would be too much to check this also).
Update:
- Added Greek sms 160 characters per sms support.
- Added longer vibration (2 longer vibrations per delivery report, 4 longer vibrations per SMS/MMS).
I tested this with my ZTE Blade 2.2 and many other devices and it works as expected.
To install it you have to:
- Uninstall the original. To do that you must have a rooted phone and use something like "Root Explorer", or "SuperManager" (the second one is free from the market) to delete (keep a copy just in case) /system/app/Mms.apk from your phone and reboot.
- After that you can install the one I provide below.
Mms2.apk
The version below was extracted by the WIND froyo 2.2 official rom (based on the chineese leak and the SS RLS5) and was modified by me to add my changes using decompile/recompile apktool methods.
It has better icons and colors and some extra options for adding signature etc.
Mms2_wind_greek_vibrate.apk
/Update 17/06/2011
Please uninstall the one you are using first before trying to install. Then activate settings (enable reports).
I 've spent more that 60 euros in tests so if you could donate anything I would be very thankful.
I also find the "put a #0 on every sms" solution unacceptable since it is not supported by all providers and it comes as an extra sms that you have to delete.
DONATE
Regards,
LS
never had problem in 2.2 (sgs)
I will take a look at it, I have had some issues with the SMS system.
Thanks,
Cory.

I 've noticed that some roms have a modified version which notifies on sms delivery. I don;t know which ones but ZTE blade and many many other phones carrying the official froyo Messaging system do not include that.
Official froyo 2.2 Messaging source (gingerbread as well) only displays a very brief popup on the screen when the sms is received with no notification sound or light.
Re opened as per OP request
What i am interested in changing the the entire Notification on SMS received... did anyone do any work to make it look like the Blackberry SMS?
On BBs we see the small checkmark when its sent, the D for delivered and R for read... all in a tiny space next to a message, no need to get plenty of delivery reports...

Hi Viber Team,
Registered for Beta-testing and installed the APK... can't go past the "enter your phone number and press 'Continue':" screen.
@noop
Tab, ACE , S2, Wildfire S
Viber is very similar to whatsapp. Unlike Skype, viber no need to sign in. Work like whatsapp. Been a while iPhone is having it.

After subscribing at http://eepurl.com/bW1Ln you simply need to wait several weeks from our invitation email. Once you get it, you will be asked to fill out a form verifying the same details as the original subscription, and then you will be sent to download the APK and complete your installation.
If you get the APK without following this exact procedure (in the *exact* same order), you will NOT be able to activate.
Our waiting list is long, so a little more patience is needed

i am using for 3 days now on wifi and seems good sometimes echo and sometimes clear sound i guess depend on the connection.

Hi viber team,

There should be no problem recognizing users from other countries. Please specify what country you and your friend abroad live in, and provide me with the number FORMAT of both you and your friend.

i'm a viber beta tester in italy.
I'm using viber with galaxy tab. Works very good both in 3g or in Wifi. I can call viber user crossing platform. From Galaxy to iphone 4 and viceversa. Message works too.
Actually the only thing that not works "very well" is Notification Icon that suddenly re-appear even if i have select "no notification in status bar".
The autoupdate of Viber contact and the last one the calling popup that stay behind the opened application. If i'm on opera or other application i can hear the call ring but i have to close opera to see the viber application with button to answer or reject.
But i'm very satisfied of Viber as a beta.
Well its works great on my galaxy tab I have had only 3 crashes so far but that was when I was on froyo .... also before u update any of the viber beta update make sure u uninstall the old version or u will get force close ...
When will tablet version be added or would I say full supported if I may ask pls ??

Hi Viber folks!
I subscribed to beta few weeks ago.
I had an Archos 70it at that time, and app was not working
Now i changed to a Toshiba Folio 100, and would to try it again.
I just download the viber apk file, installed, but it is still not working (not start)... is it viber working just in presence of a phone module?
Because if so, it will be very pity! Besides, Skype and Fring works like a charm...
EDIT:
My toshiba Folio is mounting a 2.2 version of android...
I think i found what's the problem:
I got the confimation email for subscription, but never received email for download from Viber..

Hi,
Thanks for developing such a great app... I love it.. and it's working fine on my Tab.. I do have a question though.. when will Viber support Bluetooth headsets?
thanks!
1. @riccardoroma - we are aware of the notification icon bug. we fixed that, and it will be implemented in the next beta version.
2. full support for tablet - we don't know yet. For now we are focusing on fixing general bugs with all devices, so it might take a little while.
3. @spino1970 - In order to activate Viber, you need subscribe to be a beta-tester, get the confirmation email, then wait (several weeks) for our INVITATION email. inside that mail you will have a form to fill, and only then you will be able to download the APK (if you get the APK without this process, you won't be able to complete your installation). We ask for your patience
4. About bluetooth - we haven't fully tested the integration of Viber with BT. it will work better and better in future versions.
I received an invitation for Viper test Android version from the Software installation has completed and test capabilities.
But when 2 days the SDCard and backup my entire file corrupt. And Viper application and SMS activation code are missing from re-flash ROM.
I would like to know how I can install this Viper application and send activation code for me again. And then I tried to downloading the Viper application from the email that was sent for me sometime.
>>> To download the beta version of Viber for Android, follow this link:

When you click a link appears registration page I've put information until then, it has text below.
>>> “The Viber Beta for Android can only be accessed with a single phone number.
>>> You will be able to use Viber with more numbers when it is officially released for Android.
>>> Thank you for your patience.”
@tivgnos
Try installing Viber and enter the exact same telephone number as the one you originally registered with.
Otherwise, I'm afraid there isn't really a way for me to help you other than subscribing to be a beta tester again
Ok, I already installed and received activation code.

**UPDATE** I MADE IT WORK
Hey, I'm not sure if there is an answer to this...
I just got my GS3 and love it! However, Google Voice 0.3.0 (ya'll know why I love it) crashes on the ICS 4.0.4 platform. I have been using
Voice+ but I just don't like the call back feature. I have also found a smart gv dialer that automatically decides between gv and the cell carrier based upon certain rules but it still takes a while to complete the calling card style dial through.
YES, I WANT MY CAKE AND TO EAT IT TOO!!! or in this case my ice cream sandwich I know with the unlimited plans floating around most people don't care anymore. I have an OLD OLD OLD plan that is grandfathered in with unlimited data so I don't want to give it up.
My question is, does anyone know of a fix for the app crash that worked fine in 2.2. Or has anyone "recompiled" the app to work in ICS?
Thanks for any help...
THE ANSWER!!!
UPDATE:
Yay! I know it doesn't seem like much for some but those of us still using our trusty f&f plans this is big.
I hope this helps someone out there who found that the old GV 0.3.0 app would hang up and crash as soon as you touched next on the new ICS 4.0.4.
If you want to have the old GV 0.3.0 on ICS 4.0.4, follow these steps:
1. Install newest version of GV from play store.
2. Open GV and touch next but do not choose the displayed gmail account touch USE A DIFFERENT ACCOUNT (this is the only way to get this
to work!)
3. Type in your Gmail address and your password (I know it is the same one that was displayed on the previous page... THIS IS THE ONLY
WAY TO GET IT TO WORK!) Touch sign in.
4. Choose how you want GV to dial and whether or not you want to set up the GV Voicemail.
5. Now, download the old GV 0.3.0 apk here: http://www.freewarelovers.com/androi...oice_0.3.0.apk
Thank you www.freewarelovers.com!!
6. Make sure Install from Unknow Sources is selected under the security tab in your settings menu.
7. Open the Google_Voice_0.3.0.apk file (Look in your apps and touch Downloads to get to the downloaded files)
8. You will get a message that you are replacing an application and that all previous user data will be saved. Touch OK.
9. Touch Install.
Now you should have a working GV 0.3.0 apk that will allow you to call through GV utilizing only one access number place this number in your F&F list and make outgoing calls for free!
*Disclaimer - Although this works you may want to review your TOS to see if this violates your carriers terms for Friends and Family numbers.
If this helped you please show my thanks meter some love!

Gv works fine for me. Are you still stock or on a custom rom? Fresh gv download from play?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
GV works for me as well, I only use it for voicemails but I haven't had any odd issues. Btw, why are you on an older version? The app hasn't been updated since March but it's on build 0.4.2.54. I definitely suggest using the above users' suggestions.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
The reason for gv 0.3.0 is because this is the last version that does not use direct access numbers. It only uses one number for direct dialing out. Which means I can assign the one number to my f&f list.

yes, i asked this some time ago. but your reasoning for liking version 0.3.0 is moot. theres ways to get it working like you want on the latest version.

I know it is fairly moot, I said almost the same thing in my original post. However, some of us don't like change. Also, I only have 500 minutes for my wife and I to share (makes our plan really cheap) but we do have F&F numbers. Generally the callback dialers don't put the outgoing number in the history and it takes 5 seconds or so to connect to the outgoing call (also fairly moot for the use of free calling).

Oh im sorry I think you misunderstood what I meant. The way you describe above didnt work for me, I still got force closed when launching GV after installing the older version. You can search here and see the thread regarding that.
What I meant was, there is a simple way to use the new version of google voice that allows for dialing one number only so that your friends and family list can have that one number in it still. I like the look of the new version personally, I would like a black themed one though so I may look for that later.
A side note, the new plans include unlimited voice anyways so it only really matters if you arent on one of the new plans.

First, what is your problem? Did you not read my posts or just like to come and insert your conjecture wherever you can? I stated I have a CHEAP plan with only 500 minutes. I pay $89/mo for two smartphones with unlimited data, TRY TO BEAT THAT PRICE!
Second, if you merely select the gmail account linked to your phone on the first set-up screen then it wont work. You must use the "use a different account option." Then yes, you manually type in the same gmail address that is more than likely the gmail address you use to link your android phone to google. This is the way that the old google voice app stores your user data and will allow the old gv app to work. Plus, there is no way to make the new gv app stop dialing direct access numbers.
Feel free to offer the way you "know" it can only dial one access number and I would be more than happy to try the new gv app.
UPDATE: Furthermore I have looked at all of your posts concerning this issue and you have not offered a single solution towards the problem nor explained work arounds you tried or how they failed or worked.

you are being way to hostile. I AM IN THE SAME BOAT AS YOU, I have 1400 minutes with a family plan. I am however fortunately on unlimited data. So I dont know what you mean by "insert your conjecture". I will beat it because I pay $150 for 5 lines and have unlimited data on at least 2 of the lines. So I understand the value of friends and family lists.
The "Second , if you merely select... " way doesnt work in all/most cases. I have discussed this in another thread that I had locked because there was no interest in this. The way I came up with works consistently.
I wasnt being confrontational to you, I even apologized that you misunderstood what I was saying. I will say it again too, sorry if what I was saying came across differently then what I said. I have tried your way on multiple phones repeatedly and kept getting force close. That is how I figured this other way that actually works on the new version of the app.
Still no help

The "Second , if you merely select... " way doesnt work in all/most cases. I have discussed this in another thread that I had locked because there was no interest in this. The way I came up with works consistently.
I wasnt being confrontational to you, I even apologized that you misunderstood what I was saying. I will say it again too, sorry if what I was saying came across differently then what I said. I have tried your way on multiple phones repeatedly and kept getting force close. That is how I figured this other way that actually works on the new version of the app.

Still you offer no solution... prove that you know how!
Or are you still "gauging demand?"

no thanks, for someone being so hostile why would anyone want to share with you. you could of searched and easily seen the post I made a month ago about this and that it works but instead you rack up 7 posts boasting something new and being a jerk, as if no one else has ever thought of this. Theres other users that have pm'd me and I've helped them get this working properly on the new app version.
Right on for getting it to work because thats the goal really. But when you see that it doesnt work on all google voice accounts, you might want to rethink your responses.
p.s. good job searching after posting. No I am not gauging demand, I've helped people in pm because of WHY google voice calls a different out number each time normally.
Unsubscribing from the rapidly declining flame war...
Enough you two! If he does not want to post his solution then he is just trolling
And we don't feed the trolls. Confronting him only continues the senseless posting and helps no one.
I will close this thread if it does not get back to constructive, helpful posts

I actually came to this conclusion as I started to reply the last time and have simply ignored him. My apologies. I am new to forum posting and had no idea what was really out there. I was just surprised and allowed my competitive spirit to get the better of me. I just have a hard time understanding why people make uneducated statements off of half reading a post. There will be no more exchanges between me and him.

Sorry kennyglass, not trolling at all. In fact, I took a second to think about the google voice app functionality and this thread. There is a reason Google changed the app from the old version to new version and why it dials random multiple numbers. So, posting in public how to circumvent that might not be the best idea, especially if we want it to continue to function with one number dialing.
You can look that there is no less then 3 threads related to this subject that I posted over the past couple months.
1. How to check compatibility with older version of google voice app to ICS and the SGS3
2. How google voice apps functions and why one gv account dials a single number while others dial multiple numbers (when setup the same with the same versions of apps)
3. How to get it working and the interest of others wanting to know how to do it with the newest version of the app.
You just have to search before starting a new thread.
This isnt where I just saw a random thread in General and said lets mess with the guy, NO, in fact this has been a couple months in the making where I tested, asked questions, tested more, then figured out how to do it. As I said before, it might not be the best idea to post how to do it on the newest version of the app where it works on every gv account (not just some). I have helped many others already on how to do it privately as I am not sure I want google to discover this and stop it. Surely you know that google did this at the pressure of the Cellular providers?
The kind, not so negative people that want help have figured out that they can simply pm me and I'll help. Also, I wasnt flaming, trolling, nor was I even negative. I complimented the OP for figuring out a way that works for him. I even apologized TWICE for any misunderstanding, but I didnt feel to much like sharing publicly after being told what is your problem or to prove it... would you?
maybe people shouldnt read 'tone' on the internet, reading doesnt always translate to tone well..........
and to note the half read posts comment, it is hard to reply to a post that is edited over and over, hence the ORIGINAL quote, to inform the reader what was being commented on.
Thanks for the PM tillithz. The process was simple and easy and it works.
Since, I came up with a way that works 100% of the time without using an OLD version and I am happily helping others get it working as well, I will link to the ORIGINAL thread so that I dont ruffle any feathers here. You can either use the OP'ers method with the old version of the app or visit http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31936430#post31936430 for a current method. enjoy!
Trying to use a different google account, and then using my same name and password didn't work. It said that user already existed. So I was forced to sign in using my main google account. Went through the rest of the steps and everything appears to work, I was able to install GV 0.3 and open it up. Although it doesn't appear to actually function. It won't download my new messages, for instance. Any help?
I was able to make this trick work by installing google voice version 0.4.2.54 along with google voice version 0.3.0. Thanks for the great trick! Its very usefulx for those of us on a legacy plan.
So this, might be a CM question, but has anyone using google voice on a stock rom seen the integration message in the updated google hangouts app "Migrate google voice to hangouts"? I've gotten the update, but I haven't seen the message as of yet and was just curious if the CM voice+ thing was interfering with it.

Thanks
I'm not using an OPO, but I do have my # ported to Google Voice. I have yet to see the message. I was reading a blurb on PhoneArena that the transition is not going too smoothly. I'd recommend to wait a bit, and let Google sort it all out.

My thoughts exactly, hoping they sort everything out as well. I have my Google Voice number and my regular number. I actually use both for different sets of people since Google Voice can't do international calling. To accomplish this took some fiddling though. I have Hangouts set to my default sms app, and Voice+ option disabled, this way the two environments stay separate. Otherwise all messages would be sent from either one or the other number completely.
Ideally would love to run everything through Hangouts with the option to choose how the communication is sent: phone's number, gv number, or hangout (the way it is now in how you can choose sms or hangout). Can't be an easy thing they're doing trying to integrate everything.
I have been waiting a long time for this. I hadn't seen that droid life article, thanks zephik. Hopefully they flip the switch back on soon. I use my GV number exclusively, so this integration is a godsend.

Hehe droid life is a pretty good site. They have some exclusives here and there. My main android blogs are AndroidPolice, droid life, and Android central. Mainly AndroidPolice though.
