Has anyone been able to get Google Voice to work on their phones? I have the 64gb Dev Edition and for some reason it keeps failing during setup. Any ideas?
I got it to work eventually (T-Mobile edition HTC One) but it took some effort; first, I would try deleting your forwarding phone number from Google Voice's website, uninstalling the app/clearing data, and then adding the number back on the web page. Then check the box to enable call forwarding/voicemail service and it will give you the number to dial on your phone; do that, and it should set up the voicemail successfully (it will still say "Carrier" under your call settings, changing it to the Google Voice option never works for me). Then I would reinstall the app and set it up again. Hope that helps; it's kind of a pain but it worked for me. Although I would add that for whatever reason it stopped working and I had to repeat this process later on. So it's kind of hit and miss, at least on T-Mobile.
right now gV is going through changes. since google actually wants to hack gV away and intergrate the functions into google hangout. so those using the gV tunneling method to be on 30$ prepaid 4g plans might be SOL for a bit. while google works this **** out. not sure though might have to get one of these guys to confirm.

Are you trying to set it up to be your voice mail provider? If so, I've successfully set my phone up, but I wasn't able to do it through using the in app method. I had to manually set it up so it send calls to Google Voice.
If you go to settings > Call > Call forwarding > Then set the options to:
Always forward: Disabled
Forward when busy: My Google Voice #
Forward when unanswered: My Google Voice #
Forward when unreachable: My Google Voice #
Also, you might notice there is an option to change your Voicemail service after selecting Call from the setting menu. I left this alone... My phone has that option currently set to My carrier.
In the end, these settings forward any calls that come in to your Google Voice number just like it would if you were able to get through the set up using the in-app feature.

Fixed *kind of* using this method.
I tried the method in the 2nd post but it still didn't work so all I ended up doing was changing my "Carrier Voice Mail" number to my Google Voice number.
Settings/Call/Voicemail Settings/Changed number to Google voice number.
And now it works fine!
Thanks for all the help guys.

Glad you got it working!
Hello I have the EVA09 and like it so far, but 3 things makes it bad
1. using classsic telephone service is slow and bad quality. To start ringing it takes most between 10 and 40 seconds. Every so often it stops the dial prcess after that time. even i have 2 or 3 bars . If than finaly connected interruption misserable voice quality is Standard and makes it unusable for any business purpose (the great camera just can't talk)
2. the Standard Android funktion under Telphone options to add a aco**** for internet calling (SIP account) is missing. Is this a bad joke Huawei ??
3. The T-mobile Feature , WIFI Calling is not available. Who wonders after cut down on a feature as described under 2.
Any words from the comunity how this problems can be fixed ? different rom ? or some fixes for this ?
Thanks a lot
REinhard
As far as I have been told, the model has to be certified by your operator to get VoLTE and HD voice over 3G.
My operator hasn't allowed this yet. (Telenor DK)
I just found out that T-Mobile Germany sells it with the firmaware EVA-L09C150B140 CUSTDEUD004 and update availabe EVA-L09C150B150 CUSTDEUD004, THis would be the key i guess. anybody has this Firmware ?
Any news to this thread WIFI Calling
Hello , since the phone does not support WIFI Calling, Free Texting in the Plane (GOGOAIR) is not possible either, Tmobile requires a WIFI CALL first ....
Nice Camera, but to use it as a phone would be helpfull (phone modul is the worst i had for over 10 years ) Voice quality, connection time, etc.

Really, I find that the phone is amazing - maybe it's different expectations - but it holds signal really well, the voice quality sounds great to me too. I would say phone calls is one of the things that this phone does best for me. Sorry to hear that you are having problems.
Maybe there is quality control problems, there is another guy on Reddit who has bluetooth issues, but I haven't had a single issue on that 7 things that I have connected from phone to, from my laptop, to my car to several speakers or my Moto 360 - all have been flawless. Much better than the LG G4 was for me.

Thanks for the answer, might worth to return it and get an exchange.
Use App from store called QuickShortcutMaker
- install App
- launch App
- at Search type "sip " there shall be a space in the end
- Press Try/Launch
- voila
If you configure SIP account, later at Settings / Wireless & Networks / Call Settings, you are able to choose Phone account settings.
Calling out is working, confirmed
Though the menu Sip Settings at the lower region of Phone account settings page is missing on my Emui 8 Oreo P9 (AL10) which once was a Emui 7 Nougat P9 (L19)
so the function about Receiving Calls is missing.
on the other hand with my Note 4 running LineageOS 15.1 Oreo 8.1 , this SIP settings part is available, still calls are not received.
Question, if someone got still Nougat on P9, do you see in Phone account settings the lower part called SIP settings where you can configure Incoming calls and switch it on for Receiving Calls?

I have a second P9 with custom ROM Magic Rainbow (MR) v4 by @Tecalote.
It was based on L09/L19 c432 b398, he added some things (Magisk, K-Settings, Viper4Android) but otherwise the Settings, Phone/Dialer, etc. must be the same as on the stock Nougat/EMUI 5
1) I have no Call Settings under the Settings
2) I can open phone/call Settings only from Dialer app, three dots menu, Settings - and it looks similar to as on Oreo AL10 c00 b540
(On Oreo, Phone Settings can be opened both from general Settings and from Dialer app, three dots menu - here, on Nougat, MR v4, only from Dialer, three dots menu)
3) But in the phone/call Settings (Dialer app, three dots menu), there is no Account (SIP) Settings option
4) By the same procedure like on Oreo:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79552304&postcount=1748
I can add SIP account, and SIP account menu looks just like on Oreo, there is no section about incoming (SIP) calls
5) However, even when I added SIP account by Package Manager (or by Quick Shortcut Maker), there is still no Account Settings option at the bottom of phone/dialer Settings
6) In adding/editing a Contacts, under Add Additional Field, there is no option Internet call, hence I cannot test making an outgoing call like on Oreo
If @ogisha is willing to check, AFAIK, he has still the stock Nougat c432 b504 - does he have some SIP (Account) Settings, or the same like described above for MR v4 ROM

Usage is described here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79552304&postcount=1748
But on Oreo, there is "Internet call" option on Additional field for Contacts, making it possible to make outgoing VoIP calls to the SIP account

I do not have "Internet call" option in Contacts / Dialer.
Maybe I will get it after I set up SIP account.
EDIT: Unfortunately, I could not activate "WiFi calling".

I just checked the settings in Phone App by Google LLC on Lineage OS 16.0 on my Note 4
all settings about sip calling are available there
Hello,
I have Note8 with Android 9 and I need to connect to SIP (VoIP) server to receive calls.
What I have done:
1. I installed 3 app: Galaxy SIP Settings, Galaxy SIP Accounts, Galaxy SIP Outbound Call Helper.
Galaxy SIP Accounts app - correctly connected to my SIP account. Theoretically app tell me, that recive calls should work. However, this does not work.
Galaxy SIP Settings - this application won't start, message: "Opps - the activity for SIP settings could not be found on this phone".
Galaxy SIP Outbound Call Helper - when I click button "Calling accounts", the phone goes to Dialer > 3 dots > Settings > Other Calls settings > Callings Accounts > All calling Accounts > Here I see data of my SIP accounts and it is activated.
After that, I can call from my phone by SIP number, but any call does not come to my phone.
2. So I instaled another app: QuickShort-cutMaker. I found Activities:
Phone Services > Sip Settings > com.android.services.telephony.sip.sipsettings
and
com.android.serices.telephony.sip.SipPhoneAccountSettingsActivity
but when I click "Ceate" nothing happen. Maybe I don't know where i should look for it?
3. The last app what I install is MizuDroid. And in this app Reciving and outgoing calls working. But... when I left the phone for few minutes with screen off, the app stop work and calls not reciving I have disabled energy saving for this application but still, few minutes with screen off and app dosnt work.
____________
Any other ideas? Becouse of this coronavirus happening, I working at home, and I need reciving calls from work phone...
