how do you receive calls? I only able to make calls, but if someone dials my number it won't ring! I'm using it on my Nexus One. do I have to change any of the settings? I checked all the settings couldn't find anything related to this problem.

Thanks for your help,
Well yeah I used GV before, it actually is my main number now, I knew that I had to DL voice and video plugin and forward calls to Gmail, but like you said the trick was to log out of all Gtalk clients, which is disturbing, If I want my phone to ring I can't use my Gtalk and if I use Gtalk my phone stops ringing, do you have any suggestions for that?
or do you have any alternative app in mind? I used GV with Gizmo5 before but since they shut Gizmo5 down this is the best app by far out there. I'm open to suggestions!
Got it, and it works pretty well. I have to run some more tests with it; my voice came through a bit choppy on the other end, but that was before I enabled the smoother calling features in the advanced settings. I have yet to play with it since then; I'll test and report back.

Solved echo prob. by using blue tooth ear peace. And incoming calls works well for me
yeah i founf a whole new respect fot the streak
It is preity sick, but mabe to big to carry in my pocket lol
i never find that to be a issue ,and i carry my ear piece for private calls but i like using the speaker it draws so much attention from low tech heads
I've found that it works great when I have it on speakerphone (after tweaking a few of the advanced settings), but it's very in and out when I'm using a wired headset. I also have experienced Pandora cutting in and out when plugged into a stereo. Could I have a bad headphone jack? Anyone else experiencing this?
Update: I'm working with the dev of the app. I get pretty decent audio in, but my audio out is horrible. My voice comes through very choppy and laggy, no matter what I do with the settings. Bluetooth is really bad, and it's not the bluetooth (tested it on my Droid and it runs great).
I'll let you all know hoe it turns out; the dev sent me another version of the app to try, which I ought to be able to try out tonight.
Anyone else having audio issue with theirs?
Ok, been using this for a couple days but only have outgoing calls. What do I need to do to make the S7 ring for incoming calls? All calls to my google voice number ring about 5 times then goes to voicemail.
Edited to add: I do get the voicemail notification after a minute.

Are you signed into Gmail anywhere else (or Gtalk)? That'll make it so it doesn't ring on GrooVe IP.
Duh, my G2 was signed in. Now I cant get my bluetooth to search for my headset. AURGH!

I'm pretty sure StreakDroid has known issues in the kernel that affect bluetooth. Try stock or stock rooted 2.2.2.
Thanks thatruth132!!!! This is awesome! i have my streak only on wifi and I am able to make/receive calls through Groove IP!
I am definately using this on my travels next week! Hopefully it works while I am traveling to be able to connect back to work and family.
Thanks again thatruth132!

Anybody having this problem or have experienced it? If you have or know of a solution, could you help me out? Thanks.
All calls made to my GV goes straight to Voicemail. Not a single ring on the phone.
Oh, one weird thing is that I used to have my wife's number on GV as a secondary and weirdly all calls went to her number. I have since taken it off. could this be a clue?
I would try to look in your GV "settings. Check under "calls" tab and groups tab. Good luck
I bet 'do not disturb' is enabled
Yeah...checked all the settings...they all look good. 'Do Not Disturb' is unchecked. I did a bit of searching today...and it seems to be a GVoice bug.
WTF?!?! What the point of using it then? LOL.
go to google voice on pc and set your phone number to it.. it could be still set on your Wifes, also try to make call with it then try to call it and see if that will help out

Cool...I actually haven't made a call with it in a while...(maybe that's why...it's butt-hurt about me not using it to make calls?...LoL). My wife's number has been deleted off of it since I've been having this problem, but I'll try to make a call with it and see if that will make it work.
Thanks for the tips.
Okay. I had google voice for international calls only. I figured that it was for out going calls only. I guess that because of that setting the calls weren't getting through? I understood it as all calls would come through if my google voice number was called...hmmm...guess they should fix that
So I installed nettalk voip app on my tablet it installs but it has the same issues with voice calling with fring. I mean this app would be great for us G tablet users cause we lack phone cababilities. What needs to be fixed so this app would work flawlessly? I would love to use this app cause its like the magicjack of android... Well until magicjack releases there android app which they stated it would be released in september of this year
I tried sipdroid and imsdroid. Neither work.
Also stremfurious doesn't work. It keeps reporting broken pipe and freezing.
It's like the network is going up and down, or the connection status is not being reported properly.
Voip Gtablet
I have Skype and IAXagent working, but unable to get audio to my bluetooth headset.
very possible @op. install sipdroid and let it make you a new pbxes automagically and have gv installed. i treated my viewsonic like a project and first testing requirement was "could i make and receive calls?" well i got swype plus mic and call and recieve working...but the software was still horrible. i couldnt beleive that a device like a giant epic(sgstabby) could massacre my tegra2tabby by way of speed and sheer quickness...working on phone call and receive now for my galaxy tab and i couldnt be happier....amazing what software can do...this tabby will be awesome if it gets enough dev but as it stands its going to be overlooked just because of the crap software...i used all custom roms and none had the performance of STOCK s g tabby....i hate samsung and i looked forward to this device for so long...rather disappointing...glad i purchased at staples with no restock fee
Humm, my sipdroid works just dandy... using sipgate, sipsorcery, Google voice..
Sidebar, in sipdroid you must hit menu>speaker to hear anything.. I've also found within sipdroid in landscape mode the keyboard "enter" button actually starts the call

+1 Skype works fine for me. I have a Skype number and the $2.99 unlimited US/Can calls. I can receive and make calls. I use my phone headset and it works perfectly.
Ok, so I got a Galaxy Tablet (Sprint) from BestBuy, and plan to use it only with WiFi.
I was searching around and discovered Sipdriod as a possible app to make calls over WiFi with my G Tab, but when I try to place a call I get the message "Cannot make or take a call using the Galaxy Tab."
Anyone know why this is?
I read above that Sipdroid won't work, but I am wondering why. I mean is this a limitation Sprint has put on their G Tabs? Is it some limitation Samsung built in?
It just doesn't make sense to me that I can have an Android app that should be able to make a call over WiFi, but the G Tab is restricted.
Using latest CyanVivo 06/26...
When I make a call or recieve a call, the person on the other end cannot hear me. I know my microphone is ok as Google Voice search works fine.
Is anyone else having this problem?
Calls to/from a land-line seem to work fine, but not to another mobile.

i remember from experience that acid audio mod with dlas rom made the same problem as you said, so maybe you have an audio mod installed causing the problems

I set up G Voice integration, and now when i get a call and my laptop is logged into Gmail, the call rings on the computer first, and only at the end does it ring on the phone. Is there any way to disable this, and have it just ring on the phone only... Or is this a by-product of having my Sprint number as my G Voice #? I unchecked forward to Google Chat in my G Voice settings on the laptop...
Also, what happens if i do answer via Google Chat on the laptop? Haven't tried that yet lol

If you do answer through Google Chat it will not ring on your phone and it will use your speakers and your mic to answer the call. You will literally answer the call on your laptop.

Interesting, i might have to try that next time. I guess there is no way i could get charged for that?
Also, if i close my Gmail window when i leave the house, it will ring on my phone like normal? I have the box checked to forward calls to my Sprint phone..

Correct. It can be a little startling at times, but for the most part the Google Voice/Sprint integration works pretty well. I believe Cyanogenmod is working on a system-level Google Voice integration for receipt/sending via the stock messaging app, but if you can't wait, there's also a good AOSP-styled app called Messaging + Google Voice on the Play Store. I haven't tried it for a while (there was an annoying duplication bug where you'd receive messages twice in the app-- once over carrier, once over Google Voice, but they told me it'd be fixed soon).
Yeah, I'm pretty happy with the integration so far. I'm fine with texting the way it is, i think, because with the integration i already text thru the stock messaging app? And i like receiving texts to that number on my other phones thru the Google Voice app.... I prefer to know where the text came from lol.

The reason this happens is that Google Voice rings all associated devices, but the ones that are on a faster connection ring first. The computer's network connection is loads faster than Sprint's cell connection. Note that Springs 3/4G is not involved in this comparison.

does this mean that calls are still coming in to the phone thru the cellular phone network, and not data? because that would be one concern for me, as i would think that a cellular phone network would be more reliable than a cellular data network. i could be wrong tho.
and how about with regards to texting... are they still coming over the phone network and not data?
thanks for the info guys! you probably know more than is shared on the Google Voice site itself.

Yes. Phone calls still go to the cellular network, but it is a much slower send than what the internet gets. Same goes for texting from your phone.
You're phone acts as usual, but your computer has a faster connection so it'll get those things first.

ah ok, and do you notice that it takes an extra few seconds to send a call from the phone, after enabling integration, or is it my imagination? maybe it has to get routed somehow?
This is pretty weird. So, I normally use Google Voice for all of my texts and calls which has worked great up until the past few days. There are no problems with texting, but I've got some issues with calls.
My girlfriend has been pretty annoyed lately because she says I'm not answering my phone, but I haven't gotten any calls, or missed calls. My voicemails still show up and get transcribed however. When I use another phone to call my google voice number It just rings and rings, and then goes to voicemail.
I've done the standard checking of number forwarding etc, and I've made sure that in hangouts its set to ring hangouts when my google voice number is dialed.
So, I figured I would try to call my regular Verizon phone number, and this is what happens:
No ring
"Your call cannot be completed as dialed please hang up and try your call again... etc." "Announcement five switch two dash four five" followed by three beeps and the call ends.
This leads me to believe that it might not be a google voice issue, but could be either a verizon issue or a droid turbo issue.
What do you guys think?

You've brought up two issues. Something is wrong with your underlying Verizon number, something is wrong with Google Voice. Uncheck all options in Google Voice, then re-check mark the ones you want. Just to make sure.
1) if your Verizon number has been cancelled or is inactive for some reason, then Google Voice will not forward to that phone number. Do you have mobile data when you are out and about on the Verizon network?
2) However, if you have Google Hangouts checked as one of the forwarding locations, then when you are on Wi-Fi at least your phone should still ring or indicate a Google Voice call is incoming, if Hangouts was active? (At home, I hear notifications on my PC at home a few seconds before my cell phone starts ringing, because my Google Talk app on the PC starts beeping.)
3) Try a test. Try forwarding your Google number to some OTHER phone . A landline, a friend's phone. Then, call your Google voice number and see what happens.
I did step 1, no dice.
I have mobile data, it works great. I can also place calls via google voice and my regular cellular network.
I will try forwarding to my girlfriends phone when I get home.
My computer is also hooked up, and rings if it is signed in. I think this is an issue with Verizon. I'm going to call them today.
Edit: Forwarded google voice to my girlfriends phone and it worked fine. Definitely a Verizon problem. I'm on support with them right now.
My old man has this problem now and then too.
I've had issues as well with not getting calls n then I'll receive a notification for VM...not sure what's up, happens from time to time...if someone could shed some light it'd be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Not sure about the OP who uses hangouts, but the missed incoming calls using the regular dialer is a known software issue. The solution is to turn on Advanced Calling.

Ya hopefully a software update resolves this...I'm planning on switching to the N6 though, was kinda what I wanted, but it wasn't available at the time. And after testing it out it's perfect for me since I enjoy using custom Roms n being on a completely vanilla device. I was surprised how well I could still do everything one-handed. I experience a lot of texting issues with the turbo too...I don't receive some texts and ppl don't receive some texts I send...and often they send out of order...
