I've tried getting google voice to download to my PC and phone to no avail, I've downloaded sipdroid app and created an account but it fails to register (not sure if pbexes.org is correct server to use?) Can anyone enlighten me or point me in the right direction to set this up on are p500's Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks in advance.

Try bobsled calling from the play store
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA
Does bobsled allow you to make free phone calls over wifi/ data? I checked it on playstore and web but it doesn't say much about calling, it's more about texts (which people are complaining that it's not free) ?

Viber? I use it for calling a lot
Plus it's absolutely free.

Well, I don't know what that means, but...
GrooVe IP + Google Voice
If you already have a GV number, then just install GrooVe IP. If GrooVe IP hasn't fixed the "keep WiFi on" issue yet, then you can solve that with Advanced Wifi Lock. I also use Llama to manage WiFi, because the battery will drain very fast if you keep WiFi on.
Thanks to all and especially MechMan! I got groove IP happening! Would love to stay n chat but I gotta go dig into all my new settings

Just wondering if any of you experiencing this problem. I am on KE7 and am rooted. No other problems with sign in and checking of my google mail. However when trying to turn on search history in google goggles or signing on with latitude, the device never signs in and just shows that it is still trying. I tried both with wifi and data connection but still can't enable this.
I tried this on my atrix and also htc desire but it didn't exhibit this problem.

Is anybody on here able to initiate a video call via Google Talk from their g2 to a desktop Talk client? Every time I try it connects for 2 seconds and terminates the connection.
What'd driving me crazy is I can accept incoming video requests and it works perfectly.
I'm on a stock rooted device, pretty sure I had this problem before root.

At&t has a Wi-Fi only restriction. There's a guide on the forums to enable video chat over 3G. Are you on Wi-Fi? That could be the issue but I'm not to sure, when I get home I'll test.

Sorry i should have mentioned that. I've only tried this over wireless. I've also tried with 2 different desktop clients. Same thing with both can't make call but can receive call?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using XDA App
The one time I tried it did the same thing. I figure it is a Google Talk issue. I never used it much so I didn't worry too much but yes, I am experiencing the same issue.

Tried to another Galaxy SII Specifically on Sprint. Also tried with the web based client. If you see a video talk option, then you know it works. I've tried with Desktop (web based or iChat based) and Phone based, to no avail.

Perfect. Much thanks!
My parents have Androids, but on Verizon (Droid Bionic's). I thought it was weird, but this is the same thing I was seeing as well. Connects for a second or two, then disocnnects and says there's a problem with the network. If they contact me, it works perfectly fine.
Hi trying to use Google talk over data..LTE only ....friends are using it over sprint data with GSII it works fine. But when I try to video it sends me to wifi settings ...anyway around this??
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
Google talk video chat is wifi only. You'll need to edit the file settings after rooting to enable video chat over cellular data.

I know I've seen it before but I can't remember where, but I am looking for an app that can send and receive text messages via Bluetooth or WiFi I don't really want to use Google voice due to the voicemail portion always sucking. The ones I've found on the play store always seem to have tons of bad reviews. Thanks.

I use MightyText and it works really well. I can send and receive text and picture messages immediately. Some other ones I tried take really long before I can send a message, but this one is quick!
Mighty text is great

AT&T had an app called AT&T messages for the tablet. It allows you to access all your messages and when you send a text it shows up as coming from your phone.

Never used mighty text, but tablet talk has worked great for me in the past.

I just set this up using DeskSMS / TabletSMS. The text messages send via my phone (and are also visible on my PC via a Chrome plug-in). I am very happy with it.
Of course it requires the phone to have an active data connection as well as the tablet, so that might not be what you are looking for.
Is there way to use tablet talk without the headset? Talk through the tablets microphone and hear through the speakers?
