OK so unless there is already an app like this I think I had a stroke of genius today...how cool would it be to have an app where you could personalize your voicemail message depending on who was calling you?!?! So if person A calls they get a specific message,if person B calls a different message comes up, obviously if the call goes to voicemail...and for everyone else it could be a default message! is this out there already or is this even possible to make?!?!?!
I think youmail has this option.

The voicemail message that a caller hears is administered by your voicemail provider (programmed into sim by default your wireless carrier). It is more or less independent of the phone and/or any apps running on it. (Otherwise your callers would be unable to leave vm if your battery died).
The only way to customize voicemail (if your carrier's vm does not provide it) is to either forward your vm calls to a vm provider that does (e.g. Youmail, PhoneFusion, etc) or use a call-forwarding service that has the vm features you want (e.g. Google Voice, 3jam, etc)
Google Voice does this and its awesome.
wouldnt there be a way that an app will answer the call after so many rings and provide a custom message per person?
This will use minutes but for people like me who have a 1000 minute plan and only use about 150/mo it wouldnt make a difference.

That would more be like an answering machine app then, which would still be pretty cool

Check and mark! Google Voice is the perfect alternative to the carrier's bland voicemail. Plus, they transcribe the messages, so if you're someone like me who doesn't listen to his voicemail for 3 weeks, it's a pretty nice scenario.
Of course, invites are hard to come by and come from Google themselves. So this solution isn't reliable for most people. But when Google does decide to open the floodgates and allow personal invites or open to the public, this sounds like a more viable solution than a phone-based app to do this.

I don't know if apps are allowed to "answer" a call programmatically in that way. Furthermore, this would rely on the phone being powered and receiving active signal. If your battery dies or you go into a dead zone, this isn't gonna work.
Is there any way to record your calls with the HTC Hero?
I've looked in the menu during a call and didnt find anything... maybe there is an app for it?
Help pls
Thanks /Nofowuw
vrecord app
No Such App
There are no matches in Android Market for the search: vrecord
Try vrecorder - but look at the comments before you bother downloading. It seems that it needs to be on loudspeaker before it will work otherwise it only picks up your voice.
Try RECOROID, this app allow You to record voice memo and calls. It's automatically start when You have call in progress.
I use Ultimate Voice Recorder

Toktumi has finally released their Line2 app for android. I've been using it for a couple of months with my iPod touch 4G and love it. I tried it with the G tablet and it fully works. You pay a monthly fee and you get a phone number with unlimited calls and text in the US and Canada I think. Yes you can make and recieve calls and texts using your tablet! Go check it out they offer a 30 day free trial.

Does not show up on Market. Where else can we find the .apk?
Thanks
I think that it's "tOktumi" (http://toktumi.com/)?
Jim
I'm going to check this out
Many of us would like to check it out, but is it showing up in Market for anyone? If so, can someone post it somewhere (free apk)
Thanks
what is the diff between this and google voice?
Google voice lets you send and receive text using your tablet. However, when somebody calls your Google voice number the call gets automatically redirected to the phone number(s) you linked GV to. Line2 gives you a unique telephone number so when somebody texts or calls you, your tablet gets the actual call. Line2 also lets you forward calls to any number but you have to manually set it up in the app preferences.
PM me if you have any other questions.

I basically used these instructions..

Thanks. That is what I thought you must be using it. Sipsorcery is closed for new registration. I can use gtalk to call out and incoming call to my Google number.

Hi,
I just installed sipdroid, and it created a pbxes.org acct, and I can call out, but called party can hear me, but I can't hear them. Any ideas how to fix this?
Also on the sipdroid website, it has screenshots, showing a dialpad, but I only get 2 text boxes, for # to call, and 'called address'?
Pressing on the icon on upper right, I get an FC.

Answering my 1st question, after establishing a call, I press menu, then 'speakers', and then I can hear.
Also tried w Bluetooth headset, and that worked.
Still no keypad though.

Fyi, I just figured out how to get incoming call working also. What I had to do was go to Google.com/voice, login, and under settings>>phones check the Google chat checkbox. After that incoming calls to my Google voice # come to sipdroid on my gtab. So now I can do both incoming and outgoing calls with sipdroid!

That seems like a separate problem (BT headset connecting), so you might be better off posting a question about that separately, probably in the General forum. I think I've seen some threads about BT connecting there, so you may want to search there 1st. I'm on stock TNT still, but maybe it may depend on which firmware you have also.

I cannot for the life of me figure out how to answer an incoming call on my tab. I have the overcome 2.0.0 rom, and a Tmobile tab.
I have gvoice set up properly, I'm able to call the tab from another phone, it rings through, and when I slide the notification bar down, I see this, the phone icon (which I tapped and nothing happened), mute, headset, and end buttons. I do not see any other button or way to let me answer the incoming call. I am stumped. This is what I see. What am I missing? Is it the rom? Can anyone please help?
Thanks.
Ok, I'm going to try to answer your question but I have a few myself. Are you using google voice via sip account for your calls? If so, maybe someone has an answer for you, as I do not use google talk. Um, so generally in the Tab when someone calls you, u see the call and use the slider to answer.

Yes, google voice via antisip and ipkall. That picture I posted is what I see when a call comes in. That's the notification pulldown. When a call comes, I have to wake the screen and then use the pulldown, but there's no slider or anything to answer the call.
Sorry I can't be of more help but I'm not using clip at the momment. Have you read the overcome thread to see if anyone else was having problems with voip or their website?
Don't you tap the phone icon (green button)?
he's saying it does nothing

Yes I tried that. It doesn't do anything, it doesn't change color or move, it's frozen just the way it looks in that pic. I'm wondering if it's missing in the rom. I can call the phone, and it rings and rings, but I can't physically answer it. I haven't tried via bluetooth headset or something like that yet.
I bet your going to need a different app to make this work.
I use GV on my SGT, and it works fine.
I agree with Starlog. For sip or voip apps, they usually have their own dialer app.
Go to the market and search voip, sip, or antisip.

Ok, I dl'd the apps Gvoice, and Gvoice callback since I think those were the ones needed? When I call through Gvoice callback, the GV calls my Gtab back to connect the call, but I can't pick it up, since I can't figure out why the button won't work. It rings the number I'm calling, but because Gvoice calls the number I'm dialing as well as my gtab and I can't push a button to connect, I'm stuck. Maybe I need a new dialer?
Ok shooting in the dark here, but isnt there in settings > call settings go to internet call settings. check those options in gingerbread under accounts and see if that helps. Again, I do not use sip or voip.

I have the settings set up right. I can get calls coming through, but I have no way to answer them. Maybe bluetooth will work. I'll have to check when I get back home.
I have same problem. Voip callas work, but can not answer incoming call.

Must have been the overcome Gold ROM. I flashed CM7 and with the same settings, it all works, and I can make and receive calls. Thanks for all the help!
Now I have updated new Ikaros, but same same. Can not answer internet call?
Does anyone know the solution?!?
I have now upgraded to Jupiter. Now I can reject the call, but not still can answer the call.
I can not write to the overcome-conversation because I have too few messages.
Hi,
I am looking for an android app to record the calls. I did search the forums and I couldn't find anything specific to my requirement.
1. App should be able to record two calls (both my side and caller side).
2. App should be able to record the calls with and without speaker.
3. App must be able to record the calls irrespective of the mode of call. I mean, the app should be able to record calls that I attend/make with native dialer or talkatone for google voice or skype call. I am not seeing any app that does it.
I am willing to pay a small price for an app that does all the above.
Google voice call recording is not an option for me.
Thanks,
Balaji.
Total Recall....not bad recording on both ends. Need to be rooted, 30 day trail period, then $9.95.

You could always root your phone and flash this. It's got to be the easiest way to record calls.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44792443
You can install Exposed Installer and enable this by downloading the module "EnableCallRecording"...to me worked alright!
HERE you can find more informations about modules and the proper instalation...
Make sure you aren't in a 2-party state or you could be breaking the law by recording phone calls without the other person knowing.
