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

What can be the reason?? Plz help
On same PC when I use my brother's id I can see full play store. Something wrong with my account..??? It seems like Google has blocked my account for these services. M not able to make any purchases other than from App section.

How to stop Google now from installing?

Hi all
I don't have Google now installed. But when I start to use Google search, now keeps trying to install itself. Can I permanently remove now? And just have search?
This is for CM10.1
Thanks

Have you tried starting Google Search, then Settings, then Google Now > Off ?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Thanks for your response
I have been there, it is already "off".
It is almost like Google Search is advertising Now, but I don't want it ask me to install Now every time, I just want to go straight to search.
Even hitting the microphone opens the Google Now install window, then I must hit the back button to go back to regular search.
This is really annoying for someone who doesn't want google now installed.

Google sound search not working on my One with the latest CM11 rom

Hi guys!
As the title says, for some reason the Google Sound Search app does not work on my phone with CM11. I have cleared the shops cache and even uninstalled it then reinstalled it, yet I still can't get it to work. When I click on the widget to try and use it, it says "opps, request failed. Retry?"
Any help would be great. Thanks!

I had a similar issue with this with OmniRom. I ended up having to uninstall Google Search (MAKE SURE YOU HAVE AN ALTERNATE LAUNCHER!) with RootAppDelete and then reinstall with with Google Play.
After I did that the voice search complete w/ "OK Google" started working again.
Once again. Change to an alternate launcher before force uninstalling Google Search as it is integrated in with the KitKat launcher.
It's not the voice search that's broken, it's the app that listens to the music then tells me the artist and song name. Google Ears I think it was called.
I tried what you suggested anyways but I still have the issue.

It's still there - just well hidden
If you go to google now or type on the mic in google search and there is some kind of music playin you'll see a blue 'note' on right bottom of your screen. Just tap on it ....

AutoMate direct dialing help

I have installed AutoMate but cannot dial directly from that. So was wondering if it is possible to sync AutoMate dialer to MTCB dialer. Thanks for your help.

AutoMate is not going to work. Here is a fragment from a Google Groups discussion :
...............................................................
Well, the app tries to simulate the behaviour of Android Auto and it does it in a nice and good way (as much as it can). Like you said telephony will not work because it is not installed on the phone and head unit will not be able to dial out directly, you can try to use TabletTalk to dial out, but if you do then on incoming calls it will display a floating widget over any app, which I find very disturbing when using navigation, so I have given up on that.
The full discussion is available here.
Cant get it working with "headunit" app, True Contacts and Automate... Dialing not possible...

You can call true automate...use headunit..When you select a telephone number in am en you click dial Android is asking which app to use to redirect call. Select headunit and your call is redirected to the mtcb bluetooth app.
Thats not working for me. If I click on a number to call, it tries to launch thats not there. Will try to figure out. Im german its called "mobilfunk".
Tried doing call from AM but don't get the option for headunit to place call. But if I download exdialer then you see that in option.

Check this thread and I'm using an app called AutoMate from play store but the link says you can use PP dialer. With AutoMate no need for dialer it will place call straight from the app.
