Just updated my honor 8 to emui 5 and when I try to use the dialer to make a call through Google Voice it says "call not sent". Anyone else having issues with the update and GV? Normal dialing through the carrier works fine.
I get the same message sometimes. But not always. Usually i just disconnect and retry again and the call will go through Google Voice just fine.
For me it's not an EMUI 5.0 specific problem. This used to happen occasionally in previous version as well.
I have had this problem on EMUI 4.0, 4.1 and 5.0 on a Huawei Mate and my Honor 8. I have not found any solutions. It was more prevalent on 4.0 on the Mate 8, than 5.0 is. Huawei support simply says they do not support apps. By the way, if you use Android Auto, you will find it fails when trying to make calls from the car. Something Huawei is doing with dialers is not compatible with other apps. For what its worth, a Le Eco Pro 3 was worse. It failed to dial every time, whereas with Huawei it is hit and miss.

I've had this problem after the Nougat update too. The best way around this right now (from Mate 9 threads) is to use Google Voice in "ask for every call" mode and select "use google voice". That has been working consistently for me.
I had the same problem with Nougat. Couldn't find a fix so I rolled back to Marshmallow.
Try this
I am on 4.x eagerly awaiting 5.
I open Voice just prior to opening the Dialer. Then, dial immediately.
If there is too much delay before you place the call on the Dialer, you will get the error.
Anyone in the US still getting "call not sent" error?

Yes, still getting this issue. Have not find or gotten a fix.
The work around is to dial immediately, but is a hit or miss.

Anyone else having issues ?
I setup Google Voice as normal, and I only use if for international numbers.
When I try and make a call, GV starts, but then Sprint kicks in and tells me I cannot make calls to this number ?
Weirdly, it's not happening in Gumbo 1.5c which was my daily use ROM.
I am trying this on RegawMOD 2.0
I haven't heard of a good solution yet.
Does anyone know if GV works properly on the N1 and the Droid? Those two phones are "officially" running 2.1 now.
Wondering if it's a problem with 2.1 across the board, or if the problem only occurs on custom roms.....
For now what I've been doing if I really need a call to go out via google voice is just initiating the call through the web page. Not the best workaround, but it gets the job done.
The only "work-around" is that I can make calls through the web (use the browser), but I can't receive calls. I do receive pushed sms.
Install GV 2.0 (search forfor link), works like a charm on every 2.x I've used.
yupp.only version working is .2.thats what im using
In Damage's new thread (based on new Sprint Leak) there is a post that says this:

Works for me on DC2r2 although I was getting the same message at first. I had never used it before so I thought I just could dial the number straight out like a regular call but it doesn't work that way. You gotta call your GV number first then there is an option to make an international call. Press that option and enter the number and you should be good.
I have my phone set for GV to make my international calls only though. Don't know if setting it for all calls would allow me to dial the international number directly and not have to call my GV number.
I installed hangouts dialer (not something I've previously used) and a message popped up telling me it couldn't work with the version of hangouts installed...as far as I know I have the latest version.....does anyone have voip calls working with hangouts and google voice? I'd like to setup calls but have not previously used this feature.

Did you actually check if you have the latest version of Hangouts? Pre-installed apps are rarely the current version. Open the Play store, go to Hangouts and check. If Update is an option. If so then hit the update button. Problem solved.

I have been using Hangouts - for all my calls actually - domestic and international ( still haven't popped a SIM card yet in the phone ) - and it has been working flawlessly. I am a long time Google Voice user , and hangouts hasn't worked very well in my previous phone, so I am very happy in this department with the new phone.

Yeah I set the phone to auto update in google play settings and watched Hangouts and 7 other apps update so I know it's at latest version....now that I know it's working for others I'll recheck everything since it's not an app I've used till now.
I had the phone in airplane mode with wifi enabled. It should still work with that yes?
^^^Technically you don't need to turn off Mobile Data as long as you are connected to Wi-Fi, but yes, it should work as well.
I have been using Google Hangouts since it launched (and VoIP through GrooveIP/Talktaone/Vonage for ~2 years prior). My Hangouts w/ Nexus 4 experience was good overall, but Hangouts on the Idol 3 is amazing. I think most of it has to do with the bump up to LTE coverage leading to crisper calls and less potential for interference/lag.
As for your issue, I received the same prompt until I downloaded an update. You said that you already downloaded the update, so what I would suggest is to try opening the Hangouts Dialer instead of Hangouts to launch the app initially. The two apps are downloaded separately and need to both be launched before they sync capabilities IIRC.
One bone-head move I forgot was that I downloaded Google Voice but didn't launch it to adjust settings for International calls. For my Nexus 4, I had it set to prompt whether to route an international call through Google Voice. That way, even if I made an international call using Carrier Cell towers, it would deduct minutes but I would be charged using the Google Voice's low international rates. I forgot to set it up, and the call cost like $1.20 a minute. Dropped like $80 in an hour when my overall monthly plan costs $30/mo smh.
My experience with Hangouts with the Idol3 has been so much better than the Samsung Exhibit II that I am coming from . I am finally able to get away from GrooveIP ( which was working great though ) . I suspect it has something to do with the processing power that the Idol3 offers - compared to where I am coming from. I am using it on WiFi only.
Has anyones phone started getting very hot when using Hangouts DIaler?
Also, does the reversible feature work when on the phone, Can you flip it and talk into the other side?
Well after multiple attempts I finally got the hangouts dialer to work although the person on the other end complained everything they said "echo'd" and I tried it with both speakerphone and without. To answer your question I just tried dialing a call with the phone upside down and it did fine.
I have tried making domestic as well as international calls using Hangouts - and so far no one has complained about call quality, and I have not noticed any issues from my side either. I am assuming that you were making calls to a phone number, and not a hangouts-to-hangouts call ( because that is what you need the dialer for) . I have used both the supplied ear-buds, as well as without any headset of any kind. I know that without any headsets, there are chances of an echo problem. But I have not heard any complaints in either case.
BTW - No overheating for me.
And I have not tried the speakerphone - to see if there is an echo. Once I get a chance to try that, I will update if I hear any complaints.
Haven't had any heating issues personally. I did have someone mention echoes when on speakermode though. Only tried talking through Speakermode once though
No heat issues here. I, also, had someone mention a slight echo when I used the phone by itself, but that was just once.
However, is there any way to get the 6045I to acknowledge the Hangouts Dialer as the default dialer for phone calls. I thought it would ask me (once I installed it) if I wanted to use it as the default. I even tried setting it with Default App by AndUtil and it doesn't recognize the Hangouts Dialer.
How many of you experiencing this too? I literally just switched back to Android specifically to use Google Voice, ported my number back over to Google, bought a Note Edge and upgraded it to 5.1.1 immediately (stupid). Found out GV outgoing calls are broken.
This is a known issue and google says they're working on it (https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/voice/urpXxSfS-kE) but it's definitely irritating.
Yep..same thing here!

I am using GV to make weekly International calls, better to pay $0.07/minute than T-Mobile's $1.25/minute!!!
But since 5.1.1 it's broken....Here is the solution (in the mean while), that I have been using - and it's working again.
Say you want to call the number: 000-123-4567
Say your own GV-number is 111-222-3333
Reprogram the contacts you need to call from GV, with the number in this format:
111-222-3333 , , your-passcode# , 2 , 000-123-4567#
This will dial your own GV number, will prompt you for your passcode followed by #-sign, Option 2 will allow you to make calls, followed by #.
Each ',' is a few seconds delay - I have not tried it without the delays, but it also makes it easier to understand (for us humans).
Ya, no thanks. That's just a huge hassle.
Same problem here Google Voice does not work on the Note 4
I've got the same problem with the Note 4 (not the Edge version). I'm thinking this is an Android 5.1.1. problem. I never had this before I did the upgrade to 5.1.1.
What I see happening is this:
- You dial to make the call.
- I have Google Voice set up to ask me each time
- While the prompt for Google Voice is on top of the dialer, I see the dialer is already making the call.
So the dialer is not waiting for GV before making the call.
I'm trying to find out how I can go back to the previous version of Android, but so far it looks like I'm not able to do this.
I have a t-mobile Note 4. Hopefully t-mobile will release their 6.x version and that will fix this issue.
It seems that the stock Huawei dialer isn't fully compatible with using Google Voice to make calls. Sometimes it uses the GV number, sometimes the SIM number. I know the workaround would be to make calls directly from the Hangouts app, but that's not helpful in areas without great signal. Does anyone have a way to install the stock Google Phone app? I know it can be added as a system app, but as far as I know we currently lose mods to system on reboot... (Unless I'm wrong on that?)
Thanks!

Yep. The more recent dialers are looking for the associated framework, so they complain the phone is not compatible. I tried an older version that would install and it functions okay...but when dialing out the stock Huawei dialer takes over to actually make the call. (Even after changing the phone app in defaults.)

DAMN. This sucks for me. I just got my mate 9 but I need to switch from verizon to a GSM provider. So no old dialers work?

Hmmm...not sure what you mean. I'm not aware of any way to place a call directly from the Google Voice app? It just allows you to specify whether the default phone app should dial via Google Voice, which works about 1 out of 5 times when it's turned on.

Hmm nvm I thot u could guess it just takes u to the default dialer.
It seems that no matter what you choose as the default dialer app, the Huawei remains the default. I've tried a few different dialer replacements, same results. I've seen the same comment on other Huawei forums as well...
I have an unlocked originally-T-mobile OP9, with Android 11, and I have an issue with Google Fi that I couldn't find online references to.
Every so often, I can't make calls: the dialer starts to dial and then stops within a fraction of a second. A reboot always solves the problem, but then the problem comes back eventually. Data works fine.
Update: I can't receive calls in this state either.
I tried using the beta Google Phone dialer, and maybe even some third-party dialer, and the issue is the same.
killing the com.android.server.telecom:ui task solved the problem without a reboot, and now I have a Tasker shortcut to do that on my home page, but that's not really a viable solution given that incoming calls don't work when the issue happens.
Does someone maybe have a version of Telecom.apk from a different firmware that I could try?
A bit more experimentation: When the phone is in the bad no incoming/outgoing calls state, if I turn off mobile data, or switch it to 2G, everything works again. Then when I switch back to 5G, calls don't work (but data works). Is it a VoLTE issue?
Bump... Am I really the only person on XDA using a TMO OnePlus 9 on Google Fi? Is anybody using an international OnePlus 9 at least? I might want to change to international firmware then.
Well, I think I've solved it by installing international firmware. My guess is that the problem had to do with VoLTE support in the T-Mobile firmware.
