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.

oh yeah, i forgot about that.. I'm using sipsorcery, sipgate, google voice, and sipdroid.. I don't think sipsorcery allowing new accounts now though..

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.

Ok, so I flashed Darchdroid (the newest version 2.7 i think?) and now i dont have voicemail. i really liked the stock voicemail app, is it possible to get this again? if not, does anyone know how to get google voice to take all of your voicemails instead of just the ones to your google voice number?

another option would be to look 4 posts down from yours in Q&A. im running 2.7 as well and this worked awesome for me. i like the sprint vvm. google voice simply did not work with my cell number. it worked for awhile then just stopped. very weird. did the forwarding and settings all correct and just says "unable to connect the call" when i call my cell from another number. pissed me off. good luck.

help a brother out, how is that again? i have a gv number that i forward my cell number to *28850xxxxxxx and a separate one for my voicemail set in the phone but evertime i call my cell # from another phone it says unable to connect call. let me know what you did. thx.
EDIT: Oh I think i see what you mean now. i'll try that. i guess i just assumed that *28850xxxxxxx# was my gv #. thx
yeah, just choose your own google voice number with your own area code, and then when you open google voice on your voice, it will automatically change over, then you just have to dial the *28xxxxxxxxxx code, and good to go

not compatible yet. Should have an update soon. I have found other apps like logmin ignition don't work either. Sure updates will roll out soon
anyone have an idea on timing for google voice? really would love to be able to make a voice call and get sms.
google translate isn't compatible either...not sure why. seems like it should be able to run the phone version just fine.
I suspect that voice calls will not work even when/if we get google voice app in here. Unless google decides to push gtalk direct dialing like on the browser gmail.

I don't think they'll let you make calls from the xoom or any tablet, I think the most they'll do is to let us send text messages over the xoom, just because this is a tablet not a phone, but then you never know...
you already can with skype
Something I thought about was just using the browser to access the google voice webpage, which you can use to text message as well. It does work better when you change the browser userstring to desktop instead of android.
i tried a little while ago to run the latest version and got fc right off the bat. It may be as simple as a slight APK mod. Ill try a few things and report back.
Did you get it working
By using Fring VoIP, SIPGate, and Google Voice I can make VoIP calls with my Xoom. Once you set up Fring with SIPGate, add your SIPGate number to GV. Go to the GV website on your Xoom, lookup a contact can call. It will forward the call to your SIPGate number and ring on the Xoom through Fring. Works great.
Still waiting for an official GV app though.
I've been in touch with team at Google. At first, I was given the following response:
Thanks for your note. At this time, Google Voice is not compatible with the Motorola Xoom, because the Xoom doesn't have the required telephone features.

After replying that I didn't exactly need the telephone features, but rather the SMS and voicemail checking features, I got this back:
At this time, it's not possible to use the Google Voice app on the Xoom, but I will definitely share your feedback with the Google Voice team.

doesn't csipsimple use honeycombs native phone capabilities? If so why can't GV?
Lacking that what about after the 4g upgrade? Will it not have a radio then technically?
I believe the reason there isn't telephone capabilities is that Google isn't interested in creating a full-fledged VoIP solution just yet. You can see they're testing the waters with the VoIP calling in Gmail, but if they were truly dedicated to the concept, they would have added VoIP capabilities to the standard Android app or released SIP information. After all, Gingerbread and the Nexus S have the capabilities to run something like that.

This is a deal breaker for me on the xoom/Honeycomb. iPad has official GVoice app that does sms, missed calls, & voicemail and it has the talkatone app that does GVoice voip calls. You can put away your phone while using your tablet and not miss anything.
If your GV number is set to ring gmail/gtalk will a the gtalk app ring on a xoom?

Instead of Fring I am now using SIPDroid and it works great. Even tethering from my Incredible.
It looks like I'm going to have to put off the Xoom until more features are enabled.

I'm sure google has some clueless employees too, and given that they developed a GV app for the iPad, which also lacks telephone functionality, I'm betting that that's all this is....one of Google's few clueless.

Does anyone know how to make a phone call with Google Voice on the Nook? I open up the Phone app, Dial the number and on top it says "Dialing with Google Voice" then I get a error message saying "Mobile Network Not Available" (BTW GV is free for yet another year!) I assume the Nook / Android software is looking for a cellular data network that doesn't exist. Is it possible to make it use WIFI???
I'm sorry if this question has been asked and answered in different forums but I haven't found it anywhere.
Thank you.
well, to answer a simple way...there is no microphone so even if you get it working for voice, you can listen not talk.
the text messaging side works well for me though.
I think the only way is to use a bluetooth microphone / headset
I haven't tried anyway ...

Can't do it via the app - it's simply not enabled for SIP calls. It always uses the cellular voice connectivity, even if you tap the "Use Google Voice" option on the prompt.
Have you tried the mobile web interface via the Browser though?
If you were to use bluetooth and do a google voice call in to viop setup that might ring your nook gingerbread has settings to enter a sip account. Id try it up gizmo is no more and dont really need to set up a pbx or whatever the other way to do it
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Try sipdroid if stock GB voip settings don't work. Use the GV call back app to get past dialing out fees. Sipgate may still be free.
Use a sipgate account and google voice callback to make calls when i roam on my evo. Not sure if itll work on nook. ill give it a shot if i can find a bluetooth headset to use
Any word on this working? I have been trying allot of things tonight to get this to work in some way
nope even with bluetooth headset working, it does not have a way of receiving the voice signals and channeling it so no phone calls (yet)

Nope...remembered and tossed to the side...no one has a working bluetooth with mic in yet. The nook was never intended for recording at all(which is still stupid in my opinion...voice notes in books would be a KICK ASS feature). Once there is a working mic in on bluetooth, then GV will be the bees knees.

Absolutely. I do it all the time using Google Voice and a WiFi connection. Note that I am running Cyanogenmod from an microSD card at the time. Haven't tried it directly using the rooted nook software.
I use Google Voice for Nookie texting. I do say Bluetooth voice calls over wifi would be slick.

worked fine for me on rooted stock, also.
This is the only way that I have found to currently use Google Voice. I have a grandfathered faves plan with Tmo and have set my Google number as a fave. I can dial any number out from Google Voice, which rings my cell phone. I answer the cell and Google rings the other number, using my cell phone. I can make these calls from the NC, using Dolphin browser. They connect and are very clear. No success using NC browser. Also, no used minutes on my cell phone plan!

Yes 2 things you can do
1) go to voice.google.com (desktop version) and change your phone settings to forward your calls to Google chat
2)make sure you are signed out of Google talk in your xoom
Either or both fixes mentioned above should allow you to receive calls with your gV number

The only thing I have is my mobile number, no other number/option. I remember I deleted Google chat from my phone list awhile back and cannot get it back on. How can I go about getting it back in my options so that I can forward my calls to it? I'm lost.

Just what I needed! Thanks very much!
I forgot that a simple call would bring it back. Cool!
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?

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.
