Skype (3rd parties) - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm tried truphone and nimbuzz to talk on the Skype and gtalk networks.
When I call, the other person answers and I see "connected" but I have no sound and the other person as the same thing.
I'm able to receive calls from Skype when the other person initiate the call.
Is this something normal?
Any good experience on both networks will be appreciated.
Thx
Mik
PS: I'm on CM6 nightly but also tested on stock 2.2

I have Nimbuzz installed, never experienced what you're talking about.

how do you receive calls? I only able to make calls, but if someone dials my number it won't ring! I'm using it on my Nexus One. do I have to change any of the settings? I checked all the settings couldn't find anything related to this problem.

Thanks for your help,
Well yeah I used GV before, it actually is my main number now, I knew that I had to DL voice and video plugin and forward calls to Gmail, but like you said the trick was to log out of all Gtalk clients, which is disturbing, If I want my phone to ring I can't use my Gtalk and if I use Gtalk my phone stops ringing, do you have any suggestions for that?
or do you have any alternative app in mind? I used GV with Gizmo5 before but since they shut Gizmo5 down this is the best app by far out there. I'm open to suggestions!
Got it, and it works pretty well. I have to run some more tests with it; my voice came through a bit choppy on the other end, but that was before I enabled the smoother calling features in the advanced settings. I have yet to play with it since then; I'll test and report back.

Solved echo prob. by using blue tooth ear peace. And incoming calls works well for me
yeah i founf a whole new respect fot the streak
It is preity sick, but mabe to big to carry in my pocket lol
i never find that to be a issue ,and i carry my ear piece for private calls but i like using the speaker it draws so much attention from low tech heads
I've found that it works great when I have it on speakerphone (after tweaking a few of the advanced settings), but it's very in and out when I'm using a wired headset. I also have experienced Pandora cutting in and out when plugged into a stereo. Could I have a bad headphone jack? Anyone else experiencing this?
Update: I'm working with the dev of the app. I get pretty decent audio in, but my audio out is horrible. My voice comes through very choppy and laggy, no matter what I do with the settings. Bluetooth is really bad, and it's not the bluetooth (tested it on my Droid and it runs great).
I'll let you all know hoe it turns out; the dev sent me another version of the app to try, which I ought to be able to try out tonight.
Anyone else having audio issue with theirs?
Ok, been using this for a couple days but only have outgoing calls. What do I need to do to make the S7 ring for incoming calls? All calls to my google voice number ring about 5 times then goes to voicemail.
Edited to add: I do get the voicemail notification after a minute.

Are you signed into Gmail anywhere else (or Gtalk)? That'll make it so it doesn't ring on GrooVe IP.
Duh, my G2 was signed in. Now I cant get my bluetooth to search for my headset. AURGH!

I'm pretty sure StreakDroid has known issues in the kernel that affect bluetooth. Try stock or stock rooted 2.2.2.
Thanks thatruth132!!!! This is awesome! i have my streak only on wifi and I am able to make/receive calls through Groove IP!
I am definately using this on my travels next week! Hopefully it works while I am traveling to be able to connect back to work and family.
Thanks again thatruth132!

IncS CyanVivo 10.1 voice calls broken

Using latest CyanVivo 06/26...
When I make a call or recieve a call, the person on the other end cannot hear me. I know my microphone is ok as Google Voice search works fine.
Is anyone else having this problem?
Calls to/from a land-line seem to work fine, but not to another mobile.

i remember from experience that acid audio mod with dlas rom made the same problem as you said, so maybe you have an audio mod installed causing the problems

No Voice After Picking Up Incoming Call

I've had my HTC M8 H/K edition on Sprint 1 week now. I dont get a lot of calls, but I just realized my phone has a problem answering calls. The phone rings. When I answer the call, it picks up, and then there's just silence. No audio in or out. The caller hears nothing; I hear nothing. There is no problem when i make outgoing calls, just answering incoming calls. Anyone else heard of this issue?
I should add. Stock Rom, Unlocked Bootloader, Root, S-On
Here's an update -- It seems to be a problem with Google Voice. I read in another post that google talk installed on a PC might contribute to the problem as it is delivering the call to the app first. I removed google voice from my phone, and then reboot. Issue is gone, we'll see what happens when i reinstall google voice.

Same here with me...
what should be done..
?
I uninstalled google voice for now.
So I narrowed down the issue a bit further. It has to do with whether or not I'm on LTE. I still think Google voice might be interfering. But something is different with how the call is delivered when i'm on LTE. When I set my phone to CDMA only, the call rings, i answer it and everything is fine. When i turn back on LTE. The call rings, i answer it and it's dead air. No voice in or out. Really weird.
Other things I've tried. Wifi Off/On, no difference. Signed out of my google/gvoice accounts. I also disabled the feature to deliver calls to Google talk/hangouts. Maybe it takes a while for the settings to take effect.
I have the same issue completely stock HTC one with latest OTA updates and Google Voice I can only receive phone calls when I am on CDMA doesnt work on WIFI or 4G.

Bad quality of Viber voice calls.

Hey guys, I hope I'm no alone with this problem and someone already tried to look for a solution. Me and my wife use Viber for communication daily (calls and IM). Experience was flawless. Lately she switched from Nexus 5 to Huawei P9 and now quality of Viber calls is terrible on her side. Literally she doesn't hear a word clearly from me. What we tried:
- cleaning cache and re-installing Viber - doesn't help
- calling over Facebook Messenger - same issue
- calling over Hangouts is somehow better.
I hate having 5+ messenger apps on my phone and keep one only for calls... Looks like Viber is not just using device's microphone(s) properly. I could contact Viber support, but those guys are mostly useless according to my previous experience.
Just a note, P9 is not rooted.
Appreciate any suggestions!
I use Viber on my P9 for calls only and had no issues whatsoever.
I call from Germany to England and it's pretty perfect.
Do they hear anything or nothing? If it's nothing then check the permissions in settings and make sure Viber has permission to use the microphone.
If they hear something but not very well then are other apps ok? Normal voice calls?

Yes, sound can be heard, so it's not about permissions. It's just the quality is terrible. Ordinary phone calls (via T-Mobile) are just perfect, no complaints here. But whenever we try to call via data (3G or WiFi) using Viber, it's a total disappointment. Problem persists with Facebook messenger. Maybe I'll try to re-install it few more times...
