Hi everybody,
does anybody know if it is possible to install a SMS client on the GT 10.1v? Being it a 3G Tablet it should be possible to activate the SMS messaging ... I had been using the same SIM-card in a Samsung Netbook where it was possible to write text messages. The tab didn't let me install GO SMS.
Thanks!
I've installed WhatsApp and it want to send a SMS message before it starts. When I enter a correct phonenumber, WhatsApp presents an error telling me that it's not possible to send an SMS.
It appears the current firmware doesn't support SMS/Phone operations. Perhaps a custom rom in the near future will solve this problem.
I've tried to use Go SMS & Go Dialer, but without any luck.

I use sync SMS on my 10.1 wifi tab... install on tablet then on phone... must have a dropbox account. Works really good.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
using dropbox seems like a poor way of doing it..
I just started on one myself that does it through bluetooth
that's also not a perfect way of doing it but it seems better than dropbox to me
then again, I have no idea if it will work through bluetooth. I literally just started on it yesterday so I basically have zero functionality so far.
I just saw that HTC Flyer on Android 2.4 does have an SMS App working. Couldn't we just rip the app of the Flyer and install on the GT?
How could we get the messaging (SMS) app from the Flyer to try?
My GO SMS works nicely!

Sorry if I am being dumb - you got GoSMS working on a 10.1V? How comes? I have in the meantime only managed to get it installed. But - as predicted - it would not send any SMS.
I can send SMS using the messaging function in the message app.
textab is the best sms app out there in my opinion. unless your trying have a set number to the tab and text from it.
Sign up for a Google Voice number for free. ( google.com/voice ) Make sure you go through the settings and don't have it forward texted to your current cell phone number but just to the email address used to sign up.
Use the Google Voice App from the market or the one already preinstalled on the Tab. Log in using your Google Voice account and start texting using your new Google Voice phone number to any cell phone number.
DeskSMS is the ONLY way to go for SMS from a tablet, desktop, or web interface. Doesn't require an active bluetooth connection or Dropbox. It just forwards all my SMS to my Google Talk account, and I can reply directly within Google Talk on my Tablet or Trillian on my PC.
Google voice now supports tablets. I use it all the time to text from the tab.

thanks for this lil beauty!
Every time I open contacts it tries to sync with at&t address book. I want to stop this from happening. Any thoughts?
Go into setting-accounts and sync and remove AT&T account. Then go into contact settings-display options and make sure you don't have it checked(if it's an option anymore). Hope that helps.
Edit:looks like in display options, the first phone is for AT&T. Just go into that and uncheck em all.
i dont see any of those settings ...
If you've ever accepted the at&t backup option before, on any phone, you'll have to call up customer care and have them remove it for you. If you've never used it before, you should be able to cancel the operation when it prompts you and it shouldn't pop up again
Edit: I see that you're on Telus so obviously you haven't used it before lol.. You may have to find the service in titanium backup and freeze it to keep it from trying to contact at&t every time you open the address book. I'm sure other ppl using at&t notes have run into this problem before..
Go into main settings then accounts and sync to remove the AT&T account. Once that's done go into contacts and hit the capacitive menu button. Hit more and you'll see display options. Hit that and you'll see all your options to show contacts. hit each one and check off what you want. I prefer google only, but if all your contacts are on your Sim then use the bottom phone option.

I've successfully removed it before without calling them after I've synced. Let me do a little more digging and I'll let you know if there's anything else to do.

Not to confuse the OP, but found an easier way. Go into contacts and hit settings button. Hit more and choose accounts. you'll see all the accounts that are synced including AT&T. Press it and remove.
Edit:if that doesn't work, I got nothing else. The only other thing is to go into contacts, settings, more, settings and choose to save contacts to anything but phone. If you don't do that I think it will continue to sync when you add a new contact. Good luck!

Anyone else having same problem. None of these solutions is useful because they assume options, settings, or items that aren't present.
The Contacts app launches with a dialog about "subscriber" information for AT&T even tho one is not on that telco. Anyone else had this exact problem, understand why these solutions can't work, and found one that does?
I am currently using The Unofficial 2.0 Beta 4 and installed the inverted app kit found through the tools provided in the rom. This is what fixed the problem for me.
You can't remove it. It's not part of the sync providers. The AT&T rom comes with a custom-built Contacts.apk and it's integrated with Android. You'll have to just find/download/use a different Contacts app from the Play Store.
I think however, that removing the AT&T bloatware makes it stop nagging for the AT&T Address Book sync.
I've tried replacing /system/app/Contacts.apk from other ICS builds and it would crash when trying to open Contacts.
If you are on ICS, you can disable it from app management under all... look in the "S's" for Sync then click disable. It may still launch a few times because it is in RAM. So launch it a few times and hit cancel. Reboot and launch contacts again and hit cancel. It should go away after that. If you did sign up for that servce you can disable it online (if you are on ATT).
Since you are on Telus, I am guessing you are running one of the ICS leaks or custom ROMs that use one as a base.

Thanks man
Root then remove AABSync.apk from /system/app directory seems to work fine. Left a copy on SD just in case.
Old Thread, Just to help out though, I stumbled on contacts+ in the android market, it works well.:good:
This worked for me.
On my Galaxy S3 mini, running JB. Contacts, settings, contacts to display. I selected my gmail only. No more AT&T.
I have just fixed this problem via another forum (as the issue is the phone's address book trying to sync with the online AT&T address book).
Go to the Dial keypad and enter *#*#2666#*#. That will bring up the AAB Setting. Click on Registration, and change the setting from 'Initialized' to 'Completed' . That will stop your address book trying to sync with online At&T address book
Hi,
I have searched this and other threads for an answer but couldn't find one. Hence the post.
I ported my number over to ATT from Sprint (on which GV was working like a charm).
On ATT Note, when I install GV, I don't get the compose message icon. Nor do I get any voice mails. All my voice mails go to the ATT mailbox. I setup GV the same way as I did on the Evo. I even went to Google Settings and I see my phone number listed there.
Has anyone come across this?
If so, could you please help me out here?
Thanks,
V
When you log into the google voice site does it show Sprint or ATT as your carrier?
if you add the google voice widget it should work..there is a GV toggle widget and there is a full widget that you can read your voicemails and also has a compose button on top right corner..
hope this helps!

When I go to configure voicemail service and choose GV, it gives me a confirm box with an error message saying "Change to new provider?". When I click yes, I get a dialog box which says "Forwarding number change failed"
I'll give the widget a try. Thank you.
Update: The widget didn't have a compose button either
i think you have to reset the voice calls on a pc ..not sure ..sorry i cant help..

No worries. I'll keep looking around and update this post when I get it working.
Go online and deactivate the device. Once that's done, launch the APK and setup like normal.

Mine is working perfectly on the note, but try removing the number from your voice account and delete the app, then reinstall and setup like normal. IIRC there is a confirmation text or something too. If you ported your number from sprint, that may be why it's giving you problems because sprint has the integrated system and at&t is straight forwarding/app.
I did get the same error message when setting up voicemail, but when I went back in to the voicemail settings on the phone, I was able to select it and get forwarding active. Also, in addition to the full widget, you can setup a shortcut toggle to use voice for all calls/international only, etc

If the above solutions do not work, try opening the stock dialer and enter *004*googlevoicenumber#. That's what I had to do.

Google Voice
I had a lot of trouble setting up mine also. I eventually just set up the forwarding manually through call settings. Works fine but I received the same error during setup but works fine anyway.
U was having the same issues. Turned out AT&T Messages was blocking access to forwarding. I called AT&T customer service and had then reset my voicemail settings, and Google Voice starting working the next phone call!
Messages tries to take over every time it runs, so I rooted the Note and deleted it and other Bloatware.

My phone is synced with both a Google account and an Exchange account. I have contacts on both and can see them find in "Contacts" application.
However, when I use Google Voice Search (the little microphone on home screen) and say Call Bob or Send Text to Bob, it does not work. In the stock ICS rom, it used to do random stuff like searching web for a random business. I've since flashed Houstonn's JB ROM. Now I see that my voice command is transcribed perfectly i.e. when I say Call Bob Buster, I see the text "Call Bob Buster", but it just says Contact not found and gives me a link to "find contact". If I use that link and type in Bob Buster, it finds the contact.
So, the transcribing is perfect, plain text search works, but they using voice search to dial does not work. What gives? Same thing happens with Google Contacts and Exchange Contacts.
Any one else encounter this? Any workarounds? Thanks in advance.
Voice Control Works
Sorry to reply to my own post, but after I posted the above, It hit me that I should try another voice assistant that uses Google Voice Search engine/api. So I tried the Voice Control (Test). I've tried it in the past with stock ICS ROM without much success. However, in the JB ROM, it works great for almost all my contacts. So, it appears that the voice search engine is greatly improved in JB, but the the app/interface is some how broken.
I guess I'll go pay $1.99 to buy the full version of Voice Control.
EDIT: --Further Info--
First, I just figured out that there is an "Edit" button on this forum, so didn't have to make a new reply. Sorry about that.
I guess I was on a roll. After posting above, it occurred to me that there is an "offline voice engine" in JB. So I made sure that the offline data is downloaded and turned off wifi and mobile data. Voice Control just plain stopped saying no network available. May be it wasn't using the API properly. But here is the surprising part. I can now call many of my contacts with the call command just fine now (Google Voice Search).
So, I've tested turning data back on and same old problem of "can not find contact". I've repeated this 2-3 times. Same contact can be called when I am offline (no data), but not if I am connected. I guess Google is doing something funky when I am online?
Google Search Update Feb 13
The Google Search update on Feb 13 appears to have mostly fixed this issue. I am at 50-60% success rate in dialing my contacts. But the contacts it previously transcribed correctly, but couldn't find in my contacts are now being transcribed incorrectly. Oh well, I guess it is a step in the right direction.

Just curious, but when you hit the mic button, then tap the menu button for settings, there should be an option to check phone search. Select phone search and see what options are checked off. Make sure contacts is ticked and anything else you want search to look through. If you've already done this, my bad!

Thanks for the pointer. I didn't know about the settings option after hitting the mic button. All the proper things including the Contacts are selected for search.

You may want to try Google Now instead of just voice search. If you're on ICS there are a couple hacked versions around. If back on JB, it's probably already installed. Make sure it's on/active. I've been getting pretty good search results with it (including contacts) and I'm on Slick ROM v6.

Hello,
I'm trying to use a SIP account from cheapvoip. The account is set up correctly but when I try to use it for a call I get an error. (see screenshot)
I can use the same account in their app (Mobilevoip) but would prefer to use the stock dialer instead of opening an extra app...
I'm on stock rooted 23.1.A.1.28. People on Kitkat told me that they use the same configuration and it works.
Is this a Lollipop bug? Does anyone use VoIP with the stock dialer?
EDIT: works fine! SIP is deactivated by default on this provider. Had to activate it on their website. :silly:
Sorry for opening a new thread!
