alright peps. i need to be able to text or call people over wifi. you guys pointed me to google voice before. but is its giving me all kinds of problems. sending text that im not sending. very weird. so i need a good app. and need to know how to take voice off, cuz it wont let me uninstall.
you can try viber for calling although the person who you will be calling needs to have viber installed too.

TextPlus allows you to make and receive calls and texts over wifi (and you get your own number with your area code too). You can get minutes for calling by trying out dumb apps and doing things in them, then you can just delete them. It works great, trust me.

Does the other person have to have it installed also to make calls?

If I remember correctly, I wasnt notified of voicemails when I had the hero and evo after removing the vvm.
Is there a way to remove the visual voice mail from the evo 3d AND still be notified of voicemails?? I dont want it constantly running. Id prefer to use the phone system like I did with my nexus s 4g.
Any way to make this happen? Thank you!!!

You can remove it. It's located under system/app. You can use titanium back up to remove it also.

Oh that I don't know. I know I replace the app with Google Voice which is better IMO. I'm assuming you don't want that option though, right?
I guess what you can do is back up the app, and try it. If it doesn't work, reinstall it.

Nah. Id use my mobile number as my gv number if I get into it but I cant see how it would benefit me...I usually ONLY do data and sms with my mobile. Calls and VM are rare.

Bummer... :-(
Been using CM9 from the i9100 section all day today without any issues.
On-Screen Button Modification:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1364757
VOIP Calling:
Finally, the last bit is to use your Google Voice account combined with SipDroid for SIP calling which works well over 3G/4G/Wifi.
For incoming, I stress everyone to try this:
"Also, with this configuration, incoming calls to google voice may reach your phone via cellular, and not data. If you want to remove the possibility of incoming calls going over cellular, sign into google voice, and under settings, uncheck mobile. Just leave google chat checked. Now incoming calls can only forward using VOIP."
This works with ANY ICS Android 4.0.* rom.
There is no need to replace the modem, the i9100 modem should work fine.
I would like to stress to anyone who modifies their framework-res.apk to please post it for others and state which ROM it works with.
Give it a go if you want a pretty usable ICS rom for the i777 - I however understand not everyone cares to go this far to get the ROM on their device but I don't mind sharing my adventure for others.
But calling and texting don't work outside of google voice?
Nice for trying but not suitable for everyday use until kernel sources come out.
But thanks for the heads up.

It does work with my setup. All data works great. Sipdroid is just a cheap work-around for no in-call audio over the voice radio. In-call audio works fine over a data network.
If I don't go out tonight, ill give your work around a shot op.

Nothing has changed; call audio still doesn't work. The OP presents a workaround by using data for voice calls. I suppose this will suffice for those that can't restrain themselves. It's tempting, but I'll wait until the proper fixes arise.

We can mod most gingerbread roms to work well on i777s using Entropy's hellraiser program, but it doesn't work for ICS yet. Once we have kernel sources you will quickly see some good custom ICS roms for our phone.

You can't use the Andyx ICS version but you can use his 2.3.6 based version and I would recommend it. I had it on my phone and it ran perfectly, nice looking rom too!
If it weren't for hellraising I'd be quite bored! LOL I'm currently running the Omega rom. I've been running that one for about a week its also a really good choice! Just make sure you grab either the black and blue version of Omega or stock as ICS version will not work on our phones yet of course.
This whole ideal seems really cool. I may give a try myself. One question though. Is it difficult to answer and receive calls?

Well once we get kernel sources, we'll have some ROMs - not sure if they'll be good.
Call audio is going to be a *****.
This work around was posted a while back. Not a true fix but it works. Unfortunately, I think most will wait for ics to drop so making calls can be done via voice network, not wifi/data.

Ahh ok. Well its also nice to have proper ui control with the on screen buttons as well.
And for those wondering about the calling: it works very well as it integrates with the stock phone.apk. I do not however know how to get incoming calling forwarded through the pbxes account.

For some this is completely useable because not everyone uses calling much. I text way more than I call. And if I'm talking iits because I made the call - people don't call me often. Take it for what its worth I suppose.

I just installed the "S Voice" that comes with the new SGS3 and it works. I found this out from this THREAD and this THREAD. It is ok and looks to work good with our device if you are running an ICS Rom. I am currently on MeanRom ICS v1.0 and it works good. Enjoy
Edit: One that should work after they tried and block us lol.

Just think of it as (dare I say it) Siri. It's pretty simple and easy to use.
Click the bottom-right if you need more help or go into the settings. If I were you, I'd turn of the 'Hi Galaxy' wakeup since it's pointless having to say that every time I want to use it.
Thanks op.

Thanks for sharing though. Probably it will improve with time
Double tap home didn't work for me, but maybe due to sense? Couldn't get it working on AOSP ICS on Desire either though.

I'm on cricket as well, what do you mean native voice mail doesn't work? Is it set up with your phone number in the phone settings? I've always just used Google Voice, way better IMHO.
I mean when I person leaves a voicemail it doesn't leave a icon at top. I just gotta call my voicemail every now and then to make sure there isn't one.

yea i did a nandroid and pushed it. when i rebooted the phone process just kept giving me FC and it was so unusable that i had to go back to my backup. i know it dont work now..lol.
Yeah for awhile I just thought no one was leaving me voicemails till one day I called just to check and my voicemail was full...lol. when you pushed it did you sweet the permissions to rw-r-r?

my file manager auto makes the system rw-r-r..its an option. so yes it does get the permission it needs to write over.
I know you probably want to use the native voicemail, but take a gander at this. Later today I will try and see what is going on with the phone.apk. Can't guarantee anything, but at least take a look at GV, its is awesome.
