Wasn't quite sure where this would go in the forum. Feel free to move it Mods.
I recently purchased a Nexus 4 from the Play Store and started a Monthly4G prepaid plan through T-Mobile. Everything works perfectly except for Google Voice. I add the T-Mobile number to the forward settings in Voice and it sets up calling just fine, but when I attempt to send text messages I get nothing but messages being "queued." I attempt to view messages in my inbox on the device I get an error saying "Network Error." Ever since adding this number I haven't been receiving notifications for new texts in Growl Voice and the Google Voice website doesn't load my inbox or settings either. Any ideas?
Thank you.

XDA user Koush has found a solution to using google voice with any messaging app. Here are the steps to take
Beta 2: Google Voice through any messaging app
0) Google Voice must be installed with notifications enabled (for now).
1) Install a recent +CyanogenMod nightly. July 1st or later. You need the SMS middleware patches I put in for PushSMS. (see Gerrit)
2) Push this apk to /system/app: http://download.clockworkmod.com/test/babel-2-signed.apk adb install will not work. The app requires system/signature permissions.
4) Start Babel, choose your Google Voice account. Authorize it.
Fixed since original release:
* Registers with AccessibilityService automatically.
* SMS sent via GV website, etc now sync to the stock messaging store.
* If you're running a +CyanogenMod build from last night, the duplicate GV notifications will be cleared.

What are the chances of getting this to work without using a CM ROM? I use a TW-based ROM on my Galaxy Note 2, and since I am on Sprint, I have completed the Google Voice integration. I sometimes reply to texts using the web interface from my PC, and I'd love to be able to sync my conversations so they appear on my phone as well. I would also love to be able to use Textra or a similar messaging app instead of the boring official Google Voice app. However, since GV doesn't support MMS, could it work so that MMS is sent using the carrier messaging infrastructure?

TBH, im not sure. sorry
Voice+ Delayed & Multiple same messages
Anyone having Voice+ delay your messages? Sometimes text messages will come through right away, but most of the time it will take several hours or a reboot to get the messages to retrieve. When it does retrieve them, my phone blows up with messages because I get each message about 4 times. I'm curious if anyone else is experiencing this. It's been hard to find any info since I've been unable to find anyone talking about issues with it.

This does happen to me as well. I haven't found any way to reproduce the issue on demand; it seems completely random whether I receive the messages right away or if there's a delay.
Me too. Today I tried emptying my Google Voice inbox, clearing data for the Google Voice, Voice +, Messaging apps.
Still have problems having messages delivered properly.
I am on the 10/9 nightly 10.2 build.

It started doing this for me as well. I've noticed that I receive messages only if I send one out, and also everything I receive is double. I do get it only once on Google Voice.. If I'm looking at my phone when I receive a text, I see the Google Voice notification, and it never makes it over to the SMS app, until I send an SMS out, then I see the messages.
Same here. Also, sometimes txts will not send from stock (stuck at "sending"), but messages sent from GV app go out instantly.

I'm running Vanir and it appears to be working fine. The only problem is SMS received appears to be coming from a random phone # and not the number it was sent to me from. Anyone else?

Me too. Sucks very hard. Anyone have a fix or reference to a tracking thread??
Hello everyone, I was curious to know how the Google Voice and Hangouts integration is working across carriers. I'm on Sprint and it works very well; SMS and MMS, voicemail show up on pc and on the phone. I can send SMS, MMS and Hangouts from the PC now which is really nice. Does MMS work on T-Mobile, At&t and Verizon? I understand the N5 doesn't work on Verizon, but maybe you know someone who's on Verizon. Thanks for sharing.
Incoming MMS (to Google Voice number) doesn't seem to work with T-Mobile. Outgoing MMS works, because it is sent as an SMS with a link.

When you guys are sending SMS through hangouts with Google Voice, is it INCREDIBLY slow? Just wondering.
It's almost unbearable here.

https://support.google.com/hangouts/answer/6023920 be careful. Seems there is a issue with the Google Voice / Hangouts intergration if and only if you choose "Show SMS & Voicemail in hangouts". Seems it sends multiple txts to the receiver. Everything looks fine on your end. They are aware of the issue and are working/looking into it.
This just started happening to my wife's line. Nothing on mine as of yet; fingers crossed hoping it gets fixed soon.
the work around is to uncheck the "show SMS and voicemail" option under settings and then it goes back to normal.
I am using Google Voice on a Stock VZW HTC One M8 with Android 4.4.4 and I was wondering if there is a way to integrate GV with the Sense Messenger app. I have the GV settings box ticked to show notifications in the call log, and I have the Call settings for voicemail switched to GV. But the Messenger app seems to be tied to VVM. GV seems to be working fine otherwise, so I'm just wondering if anyone knows of a way, either rooted or not, to better integrate GV, I'd be psyched.
As an aside, I have hangouts and the hangouts dialer installed, yet I don't have any setting for Google Voice in Hangouts either. I'm on v2.5 so it should be there. Is there a way to get it or is there a reason it's not supported on this phone?
Thanks in advance!
Is Google Messenger still having problem with Sprint and WiFi Calling?
It works fine for me except when I'm trying to send an MMS during a phone call. That's the only time I've gotten a delivery error.
