Under my call forwarding options I want to disable Unavailable and Busy forwarding, but unchecking them does nothing they come right back. I think this has something to do with missed calls because I use my calender alot and some appts are set to busy but I want my phone to still ring.

is there a plugin to display missed calls on the today screen w/ photos? I tried the PhotoDialer plugin, but some things about it bother me, and those are speeddial numbers not missed calls.
Try DKToday. It shows missed calls, and when you click on the missed calls line it dials the number. It also counts your used minutes and your SMS. Very usefull app! search the forum for DKToday, it is in the thread "Is there a call minute available for..." or something like that.
I have Google Voice on my G1, and I'm wondering if there is a way to use a different ringtone for incoming calls on my Google Voice number than from my regular phone number. I've looked around the options but can't find anything as of yet.
Am I missing something and the option is sitting there right in front of my face, or is it just not implemented yet to be able to change the ringtone?

Add your Google Voice number as a contact (I starred mine).
Then assign that contact a different ring tone.
done!

It still didn't work for me :/
The Google Voice number does not call my phone, it simply forwards the calls to my number when people call my GV number. So, say I call my GV number with my house phone, my G1 would display the incoming number as my house number and not change the ringtone to the GV one.

What you need to go is go to settings on GV and change "Caller Id" to display my gv number. That way you get free calls i mean your gv will be calling you. But make sure to put on call screening.

Thank you, that worked. Guess it was a GV issue and not a G1 issue, my bad.
Do you know who is calling you then when someone calls your gvoice number?
You would only know who is calling if you setup GV call screening, so the caller has to announce their name, and you press '1' to accept the call.
With GV passing through the original CID, I don't believe there is any way to set a different ringtone, as your phone isn't going to know the difference. If you use the third party GrooveIP, to send the GV call over IP instead of voice, there may be some other options.

How exactly do I get to the settings of GV to change the Caller ID? I cannot figure out where that setting is. Google again has a great service, but very poor direction or obscure directions on how to implement features. Please help me. Thank you very much.
Hi,
Is there any application which fakes incoming caller ID ? I assign some fake number to an incoming number and the fake number is displayed when he or she calls.
The same with SMS too.

just use SmartPhone PhoneyCall to fix it
I'm not looking for a fake call generator.
I'm looking for something which can replace/modify and display different incoming number.

okay , if so try SMSDRFixWM
- Improved phone number searching algorithm
- Improved contact looking up
- Added replacing number in text messages
- Improved Delivery notification design
- Simplified settings
- Deleting moves messages to delete folder
- Fixed setting delivery time
I'm sorry to say that even thats not what I have been looking for. I never mentioned anything about delivery reports. The app you suggested is for delivery reports. It replaces the number and displays contact in a delivery report.
MagicCall is something which suites my need. I tried it, pretty much enough for the calls. Except for Incoming calls it can't replace original number if you want to answer the call.
And for SMS I'm still looking. May be something like which can encrypt.

this application to protect your private and sensitive infomation such as contacts, call history, tasks and SMS
-Call Magic: Answer incoming calls to your phone automatically and/or listen to what is happening around your phone. This ground breaking technology is the only one of a kind solution in the mobile industry!. This solution is software based and does not require any hardware tweaking.
-Call Magic will enable you to answer incoming calls from a pre-defined number at zero ring, i.e. the phone will answer the call automatically without a ring! Every time you call your phone from the pre-defined number, the phone will answer the call without a single ring! After the call is picked up then you can hear what is happening in the surrounding of the phone.
-After Installation Call Magic allows your phone to have three answer modes -- Reject All, Hands-free and Answer One.
-In Answer One Mode you can set a pre-defined number and select the number of rings after which the phone should auto-answer. No further user interaction is required. If you selected, zero rings then next time a call is made to your phone from the pre-defined number, your phone will automatically answer it. No rings, it simply answers! Magic!
-In Hands free Mode the user can select the number of rings after which ALL incoming calls will be automatically answered.
-Reject All Mode will reject ALL incoming calls and send a busy signal to the caller. The caller and you will not be charged for the call. Our software makes the Network Provider send a busy signal to the calling party.
-Call Magic does not require constant activation after the phone is switched on. Call Magic is a Pure Software Solution and starts up automatically when the phone is switched on.
-WARNING! Using surveillance devices, intercepting and/or recording audio conversations, without the consent of all the parties involved might be illegal in your country. Check local laws before using Magic Call.
Hi. I'm looking for a way to reject some calls not like the typical blacklist applications in which I choose the number and every caller with those number receive a hang up call, but something to integrate in the Incoming call options. I want the caller to receive "the called number isn't in the covering area" or something like that - carrier message because I don't want him to know that I rejected his call, but there where some problems with the signal or the phone was off. Do you have any suggestions for something simillar? Thank you!
I have an app that writes all my phone calls to my calendar - incoming, outgoing and missed calls all write to my Google Calendar with the number called and the duration of the call. If it's a number in my contacts, it will add that in addition to the number.
But I haven't found a way to get Google Voice calls to do it. I'm hoping someone out there can tell me how I can make, receive, & miss calls write to my calendar using Tasker. I use Voice for calls from and to my patients and that allows me to give them a dedicated number they can call anytime and I can use, if necessary (say for that 3:00 am non-emergency call about something they just "have to tell" me), to screen them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
