Speaq VOIP

another new VOIP platform based on SIP.
But i am not able to send and receive calls.
The registration is successful though.
Let me know if anyone has success with this.

Just tried it, in connection with a voipcheap.co.uk account, took several attempts to register with the service, when it did connect all sound came through the speakers and there was a lot of echoing on the line, the call then droped after about 20 seconds.

i think sjphone is a better option still.

What is the minimum data sped needed for VOIP to work?

I could talk very well on an EDGE connection with:-
E61 + Truphone and
Nokia N72 + Fring
Gizmo performance on SJPhone was shaky. Skype-PPC calls on EDGE were not so good.
But that's what PPC has to offer as of now.
TiVi performance on PPC with an EDGE connection was acceptable.

Hi Vinodis,
could you let me know what device you were using, when you were having problems. Also, if possible a report on bandwidth availability using the page at http://www.dslreports.com/msp would be useful.
Since we only provide the G.711 codec at the moment, we need a reasonable bandwidth availability (70-80kbps), and SpeaQ unfortunately doesn't do a great job yet of telling the user when we have that problem. We do have plans to improve that situation fairly soon though.
thanks,

Asterisks IAX2 Client

Does anyone know of any IAX2 Client VOIP software for the Dream Google G1
IAX2 Cuts through the firewalls just like skype does so its reliably easy for when you are on the go to be able to connect with less hassle (unlike SIP mucking around with forward ports)
Could I not port some sort of IAX2 client from some Linux project or has someone already done this?
I am on the road allot and encounter many different types of wifi networks. I carry a laptop now with a headset and connect where ever I can to check messages and make calls sometimes even receive some. I love the fact that my small business runs asterisks allowing me to use many different voip providers (that use sip or IAX2) I have 2 numbers in bound giving me 4 different channels of call into a cheap $12 a month professional phone system. I even recently been using a provider that gives me $0.00348 cents a min for Canadian outbound.
(I scoured the threads for keywords like trixbox, asterisks, IAX, IAX2, Elastics, freepbx and was unable to find any serious discussion on this)

Why do you need to forward ports for SIP? Just keep a connection open to the SIP server and it will signal you there.

I use to spend most of my free time in my car trying to get a open connection then attempting to get my sip client to connect to my home server. A pain in the butt. When it worked its nice to get your voicemails and heck catch a call once in a while pickup a job on the run. Even make all your calls if you got a clear enough connection.
Seems they make it easy to connect to your sip provider but when it comes to your own asterisk server at home you have to fight with the provider. Sympatic o seems to block the rtp ports or disrupt the communication in some way allowing only the sip 5060 ports to connect make the phone ring but not let you talk. they play all sorts of games. It worked fine up to march 2008 when all thr providers (big boys Rogers Sympatico) Upgraded to the world of packet level control. Things got fun from there. All home extension to business PBX's I setup for clients stopped working with no changes. (all sorts of different providers spead out around ontario)
I was one of the few voip asterisk consultants till voip started to take off
Does not matter if you manage to prove it and make it past the supastars ( ISP tech the PBX is on or client is connected with)to someone who actually has some control or packet level understanding to clear you a route to your home box. Unless you pay for static ip your ip will change (bell charges a ransom for a static ip) I also noticed if you setup a pbx in a major data center they seem to have a clear route. but anything DSL or Business Cable type connection there is something wrong .that use to work for 2 years prior.
Not to mention what ever router you seem to connect with might not pass things proper .
IAX2 is a dream come true it is supported by many providers and cuts through all the mess of games and such using only one port thats not tcp but udp and slices through your average router and provider with no hassle just like skype but with the freedom of your own setup. the jitter controls work wounders compared to SIP giving you a better voip experience when your wireless.
skype is very limited and very controlled when it comes to receiving calls and sending them especially when you travel.
I am not here to argue with anyone over the finer points of the more common sip. but unless I run a vpn (using sip) IAX2 is the simplest breath of fresh air in the world of voip especially if your savvy enough to build your own asterisk server and would like to take advantage of all sorts of voip providers in one box. Or heck hook one of your clients up hassle free to his Business/home phone system you setup for them.
I really just want to know if anyone has a decent IAX2 client for the G1
If you want to argue VOIP head over to voip-info.org [remove this space] /wiki/view/IAX

so i guess no software for iax2 clients.
Any ware I can pay someone to write one?

Nice found a project...
thought I would update anyone who is interested!
code.google.com/p/androvoip/wiki/Roadmap

I would be interested in such a software. However this project doesn't look very active at the moment.

gizmo5 sipdroid

Looks like you can use google voice, gizmo5 and sipdroid to make free landline calls with the gtablet too. I am using CM B2 and was able to set things up using the directions I have used before at h ttp://androidcommunity.com/forums/f4/how-to-free-calls-via-wifi-using-google-voice-and-gizmo5-21836/
Keep in mind this is not perfect and I was only calling some after hours mailboxes since its late here but if you turn it to speaker phone it seems we can use our gtabs as a phone as well.
Edit: When I tried to call someone this morning I could here them pretty good but they said my voice was pretty bad though it may be this crappy hotel wireless doing that.

not sure how a single post thread made it to front page of the portal, lol.....
especially when the method employed uses gizmo5, to which new user application is (and has been for some time) suspended.
getting sipdroid to work through pbxes is a circus too. if you come up with an easy way to get sipdroid to work, that doesn't require gizmo5 (read: another easy way), i'd love to hear more

+1 i agree.
question comes to my mind how do posts get to the front page.. on what basis or rating?

Not sure why its on the front page of anything to be honest. The post was mainly for the people that had been using this already as I have for some time. I wasn't aware that they had closed enrollment after gizmo5 was purchased by Google. As I see it with this tablet being finicky about what apps it will run too much info is better than none.

Someone actually took the time to give my post a bad rating. Couple of minutes on Google and I found this guide to setting up a sip connection without gizmo5. I doubt I attempt it since I have a gizmoaccount but I wanted to give something additional.

That seems pretty shabby... I got basically the same working only using a Vonage Softphone SIP account instead of Gizmo... so this can be done...

I tried sipdroid + gizmo5 + google voice, but I found that the gtablet doesn't seem to play audio from the other party. The microphone works though.
Any ideas?

Hi
I used the same sipdroid+gizmo5+google voice setup and was able to talk to the other party and hear the other party by using the bluethooth. Conversation was clear on both the sides though i felt that there was some amount of lag to hear each others voice.
Hope bluetooth works for you too

What's the best way to setup internet calling on 2.3.3???

What's the best way to setup internet calling on 2.3.3???
Has anyone done this yet? I was wondering if there's any way to do this w/o a third party app like Sipdroid.
Thanks in advance!

Back in my Nokia symbian days with built in SIP calling, you had to first pick the service you wanted to use. I went with truphone, which is still around, though I'm sure tons of other options exist too.

Orbot disconnects often and orbot with skype

Hello guys, I wonder if you can help me at all. I have installed Orbot on my I9000 running android 4.2.2 (cyanogen). It works OKish but the phone often disconnects itself from the tor network and I have no idea why. I had a look around the net for a possible explanation but I couldn't find much about it, so I thought I might ask here. Also, not sure if it is related to the above, but when I log in onto skype while Orbot is connected, I can get into skype all right but shortly after it disconnects me from skype, or to be precise, I am still logged in but clearly not connected to it because the online contacts disappear. Again I had a look online, but found very little: some people say you can't use VOIP over TOR, some others say you can. To be honest I haven't got as far as trying it. Anybody has any thoughts?

For your connectivity issues, I'm not sure. Orbot has been getting a lot of issues on newer android versions lately. Could be the latency on your network is too high.

You can do voip over Tor, as long as it uses TCP. Skype will fall back to TCP when UDP fails, so it does work over tor. I'm assuming you're rooted and using the transparent proxy feature to get skype through orbot, since it doesn't have proxy config options. I just made a call with skype over tor using Anonify on my note 2 and it worked fine. I was using wifi though. Calls may have some latency issues through tor.
More info about skype over tor: guardianproject.info/2012/12/10/voice-over-tor/
Hope that helps.

Thanks, sorry for the slow reply. In a way yes it helps, I know more about it now, but I tried to place a call on skype with the proxy on and the call doesn't go through. Moreover, when I switch on skype (proxy already on), it shows no online contacts even if they are online.
Is there a way to change the latency?
thanks

Latency issues are usually unavoidable.
