Nettalk app... Posible voip app for g tablet?

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.

[Q] Rebtel Android App for international calling

Hi All,
I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with the Android to Android calling feature of this app. I just moved to the caribbean recently and wanted to talk to my friends in the states. I got my GF to upgrade her phone to a Samsung Fascinate so I'm hoping this app will basically make it almost free for her to call me. BTW, its free incoming calls here in the Caribbean so as long as she can call my number I won't be charged. And it sucks because the island I'm in at the moment has very expensive and slow internet so I can't leave my internet on all the time so no VOIP.
here's the app: http://www.rebtel.com/en/Services/android/

Place Calls Over Wifi

Is there an app that allows you to place calls over wifi. Like to use my own real phone number and use wifi instead of the network to place my call. i ask because i get terrible reception in my house. I dont want apps that you have buy a plan for though, like skype, or anything that only works with other calls to that app, like fring

Take a look at Sipdroid or CsipSimple.

Well, there is an app but it doesn't use your regular phone number. It's called GrooVe IP. The app costs like 4 bucks on the market, but it's a complete VOIP application. It uses your Google Voice account to place the calls. There is a setup tutorial in the application description. I'm sure you could find the APK on other sites, but I'm not sure if it requires cracking or if you can just get the APK and install it.

I use Tango. It uses your email address to make VOIP calls (with video). Totally free and is also available for iOS. I use it to call my son on the other side of the country on his iPod touch.

does tango give youa phone number?

I've heard many good things about sipdroid too. I'm going to try setting it up on my deactivated htc eris. Supposedly works with google voice over wifi. I'll report back after I get it all working.

I've been using sipDroid for a few Weeks now.works great. It occasionally had audio issues but I user it for all my work calls. Saves me from burning all my minutes.

If you have a google voice # you can use a application called 'grooveIP'. Uses either wifi or mobile data to dial out through google voice. Been using it for over a month now and works well. Obviously the better the connection the better quality.

Tango does not give you a phone number, it uses your email address. I'm pretty sure it only works with people that also have the app.

SipDroid+Google Voice... lets me make calls over wifi and 3g for free, and gives me a phone number, and lets me text. its great

I forgot that GrooveIP isnt free, I got it either from here on the forums or another site when it was released.

Living without Wifi Calling

So I just wanted to post my alternative to wifi calling since most of our JB roms are the best roms for this phone but most users divert from using them because there is no wifi calling...
My fix is pretty simple actually, I just set my primary voicemail to Google voice, so that all my missed calls from either one goes to my google voice voicemail, this way when people call me Ill be able to get a notification through wifi instead of through data when i have no single.. I know its not the same as being able to receive calls but it notifies you when you have a call.
Next I just downloaded the vonage app which lets you make free calls to USA numbers and I think canada.. So after I get a voicemail notification, I just call the number back.
Feel Free to post your alternatives to wifi calling in this thread, i would love to see other ways users live with out it
Now this only works if they leave a voicemail. so dont expect google to just notify you every time you get a call.
This is just my simple fix for having no wifi calling.. i figure if they dont leave a voicemail.. then their call wasnt that important..

As a Canadian, I've never had the advantage of T-Mobile's wifi calling, however we have our own alternative which isn't too bad at all. Fongo (formerly Dell Voice). A good internet connection is required though, otherwise you may experience lag and/or low quality calls. On the plus side, you get a new phone number in any locale you want. Most of Canada is covered. So for instance, if you're in Vancouver and have family in Toronto, it makes sense to get a Toronto number so they can call you without incurring long distance charges (exactly what I do ). You can even set it up so calls dialed to that Toronto number get forwarded to your actual Vancouver number. Pretty nifty! They have a texting option as well, however that will cost you. Voicemail is included, and is free!
As far as free text messaging goes (and incoming calls, so long as you don't want to spend any money), a great service covering both the US and Canada is Pinger. Once again, you get a brand new phone number, though not as important for texting. The app itself can integrate your carrier's calls and texts, too, if you so choose (enabled by default - I typically disable it).

Fortunately, for me wifi calling isn't make or break. The bars here are generally 'good enough'. But...
An interesting (though maybe too much of a work around for most) would be to simply fully back up the official rom with wifi calling and your custom rom and then you can switch between them. Need wifi calling at work? Wipe and restore to the official rom after you get there. Want the custom rom at home, just wipe and restore that backup.
I know it works with Clockworkmod's backup and restore as that is what I use with swaping atm to test battery usage between roms. A restore brings back everything exactly how it was left.
(Perhaps the only real issue would be to be done with any OS specific changes. If you insall a new app and want to keep it then another backup would be required or it would not be there next time. Other things like contacts, calendar via google syncing isn't a problem as it just syncs changes between them via wifi. No need to do backups for that* - just wipe and restore any time. Also, the amount of space/time could be a problem if someone has too much stuff.)
*Point to point out, if anything is changed in the restored rom which affects goole sync before google is finished syncing then that could cause something to not be synced and thus lost forever. Unsure which side would lose. Haven't run into it personally. Backups are always good regardless.
Other than that, I just ordered cables for usb otg which on my phone requires the official rom (or a rom based off of it). So I want to see how that goes and may [continue] to do the swapping of roms for that. For me and how I use the phone its not a problem.
Another idea... would be to simply have another phone with wifi calling and do sim card swapping.
Guess this is the post of all about swapping.

The Vonage app works great for Wifi calling. That is what I am using. People will still be able to see your existing phone # on caller ID.

yeah ive been plagued with this dilemma as well.. right now i just use the CM9 which has T-Mobile wifi calling. however the calling barely works (just shows call screen then beeps to disconnect) it does do the texting 95% of the time.
i do have the tmobile visual voicemail so it alerts me if i get a voicemail.
i thought about using google voice but it looked to want to import my number and i was afraid it mess up the regular carrier..
i dont like using the apps that assign a different number so i think im stuck with ICS until someone hacks it into JB..

i read about this just now and it says it works with anyone who also has the app.. so that would limit who i could contact when on wifi only....

Light ROM with GrooveIP
I'm not sure I understand your question . Are you looking to live without wifi or find solutions to solve bad wifi?
I had a lot of trouble with wifi calling until I did this:
[ROM] RemICS-JB 3.0.1 - The most stable, light and reasonably fast ROM I could get onto my phone
Set up Google Voice account (actually GApps but not relevant)
Install GrooveIP
Configure properly - The startup and answer on calls settings help integrate it seamlessly into your daily calling
Now you have inbound outbound calling, and with a decent connection it's very clean with rare hiccups
I trield Talkatone for a while and while at first it seemed to work out of the box better, I had issues with it over time.
So I went back to GIP and fiddled with settings after reading a lot. Because it works directly over Google Talk protocol and not GVoice, it is more stable and offers a better connection.
Hope this helps you get solid voice over wifi (Free
I did pay for Groove IP in the end.
Groove IP does not offer SMS built in like Talkatone does, so if you are SMSing all day as well then look at Talkatone. If quality of calls is paramount start with GIP. I use the GVoice app for SMS

do those assign you another number or does it use ur regular cell number?
does the other person need the app?
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda premium

Sorry I did not mention this. Yes you use the GVoice as your main #
I converted to Grand Central (with Gizmo) several years ago before Google acquired it, so I'm very familiar with Voice and have been using it successfully for years.
I also use an Obi202 device ($75 for life) that lets my standard house phone make/receive calls on up to 4 GVoice numbers, or other VOIP services (like callcentric, etc.)
So my GVoice numbers ring multiple devices. One caveat is that GrooveIP on android interferes with the ringing on Obi device so I turn it off when I'm in office-desk mode. But I think this is off-topic

Im still in the testing phase... but MIUI ICS has the tmobile wifi calling working very well.
(Note it wasn't pre loaded so i did a full app and data backup of wifi calling via titanium backup and restored it after flashing new ROM)
* Update
Wifi calling still is sketchy.. didnt call last night.. just beeps and hangs up. But i have noticed it starts each time i connect to wifi unlike CM9 where i would have to click the app

[Q] Samsung galaxy camera voice call in singapore

Hi,
im new to this forum and im kind of desperate as i lost my phone tomorrow, so in need of a phone asap.
i stumbled upon this samsung galaxy camera yesterday but the salesperson told me it does not have voice call function unless you use skype and stuff. but skype is not being used frequently in singapore.
so is there any apps which i can use to make normal voice calls in singapore?
i read through the forum, there are apps like GrooveIP but when i check on it, it only supports in US or Canada.
thus need some advice on any apps that i can use for normal voice calls.
thank you

as far as I know Skype does exactly what you want if you get a paid subscription.
the free version only allows calls to Skype clients, but if you pay you can also call regular phone numbers(mobile and home).

try mobilevoip.its free in singapore
