Making Phone calls from your Gtab - G Tablet Themes and Apps

Nettalk seems to partially work on the Gtab. I just side loaded it onto my xoom and it works perfectly however on the gtab it hangs up after a while. Just seeing if the community knows of a fix maybe even as easy as a external mic?
Here is the apk you can download from the market for free!!

There is a microphone though..

hmmm i wonder why i can hear the person on the other end but they cant hear me but on my xoom it works both ways??

Don't know but I wonder if its the same reason Shazam doesn't even setup for me

I can make calls but they end after 30 secs for some reason and the person on the other end cant hear me? I was wondering if it was a mic issue not hearing anything so it shuts off the call of a programing issue since the xoom has 3G capabilities but the website says it can make calls over wifi?

no microphone??!! I use my Gtab skype with my gf everyday... hmm, guess she really can't hear me in the other end, and she's just pretending that she knows what i'm saying... because there's no microphone...

Yes, the gtab does have a microphone.
Now what might be happening here is what happened to me using Skype. For whatever reason, when placing a Skype phone call, the microphone is on mute. Hitting the little button on the bottom left enabled the mic. Calls then went smoothly.
I have to re - enable the mic for each call. A small inconvenience really

OK good grief LOL i just got my gtab so I am not that familiar with it and was thinking out loud about it not having a mic LOL has anyone side loaded this apk like i did and used it? I hit the mute button and it does nothing?
Edit--- Ok the problem may be my router. I have a Belkin and it is listed as one of the bad ones that only enables one way voip calling going to try tethering.

Maybe a dumb question, but did you try using speaker phone? BTW, which rom are you running?

It works for me. Must hit speaker phone. This is really cool. Calukins and Pershoots overclock kernal.
Update: this program works but the person on the other end hears everything they say after they say it.

I hit the speaker phone tab in the nettalk program and i can hear the person on the other end but they can not hear me. I am running vegan ginger edition

That echo that they hear is something the devs for the program are working on

To test it I called 1800555TELL and on the speaker it was getting confused pretty easily. But with a headset plugged in it seemed to be fine. I expect my bluetooth would have been even better but didn't try it. My quick testing on other things tells me the headset jack has no mic in or it isn't switched on. Its just headphones.

Were you able to talk to someone and have them hear you? I can hear them but they can not hear me? I am running vegan gingeredition and do not know if there is something in it that is making it not work?

Yes TELL ME is voice response. So I said "News desk" and it went to the news. Then I said "Top stories" and it read me the top stories. You could probably try bing411 if you'd rather.

yup works perfectly. because the mic is close to the speakers the mic can pic up sound from the speakers and give it the eco effect. when i use it with headphones it works perfectly.

What rom are you running cause i have vegan gingeredition and i dont know if it is the rom or me but the everything works except the person on the other line can not hear me, gonna try an external mic

I'm on Vegan Ginger so not that. Maybe get Volume Master or something off the market and see if you have some gain level turned down or something? I can't recall if it controls mic gain or not. Or try a bluetooth headset.

Ok thank you will do!

Doesn't seem to work for me on calkulin's rom. It just sits there when I try to dial out and eventually stops trying.

Kaiser and Skype

Hi All
I have a question, does kaiser now fully suport skype?, right now I'm using TyTN and Skype works only on back speaker.
Best regards
PiNiO
That is not an TyTN or Kaiser issue. This is related to windows mobile. So use the headset. No other chance.
Works for me for some reason. Perhaps because it's a recent version of Skype?

Umm, it works, but it plays sound thru the rear speaker or a wired or BT headset. It doesn't work thru the normal earpiece of the phone.
You are right! I was pressing the thing up to my head and was hearing the external speaker *through* the thing. What a stupid WM6 shortcoming. Hope they fix it soon.

And the problem with this is it causes the other party to hear a bad echoing. Using a headset is the best workaround.

Ringing through speaker when on bluetooth?

How do you get the phone to ring through the normal speaker when connected via bluetooth to a headset. In other words, I would rather the phone rings through the normal speaker, I then hit the button on the bluetooth headset and take the call in the normal way though the headset.
any ideas? thanks
Hello,
Someone has an answer to this?
thanks
Has anyone figured out a solution to this? I don't like to wear my headset all the time just to hear when my phone is ringing!
Okay, perhaps it's just me and these other guys having this problem? Even if you don't have this problem, could you respond to let us know it's just us?
Okay, I tracked the problem down to MS VC 1.6. Now, I have to figure out a way to get this to work, since I really don't want to give up my voice dialing in order to have ringing...

The easy solution would be to put the phone on vibrate.

Alright, this describes the behavior perfectly:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1564340&postcount=27
So, the work around is to set "Use handset spkr or wired" under notifications in VC.

Well, that usually is louder than the ringer.

That's what I used to do with my Motorola phones, I tried all sorts of hacks, but in the end placing the phone on vibrate was the best solution.

N1 + Jawbone Icon= Bad quality Audio

Anyone use a Jawbone Icon? People hear me fine, but the quality of their voice is always pretty crappy. Its hard to understand them. Volume isn't an issue. On the Icon, I'm running latest update with A2DP functionality and 2.2 on N1.
Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.
I have the same issue as well, but as soon I went back to the original Jawbone profile instead of the A2DP, the issue went away.

Hmmm....I guess I will try disabling A2DP too.
I'm using AD2P. It seems to work for me.
-bb
Did you find a solution for this? Im having this issue too.
I find that that after reseting the Icon the first call is clear, but then call quality gets increasing worse with each call. A2DP sounds good though.
are you guys using CM6? I heard a while back that the volume boosting kernel messes with call quality in bluetooth headsets, not sure if this was fixed.

[Q] Video Chat. Is there a built in mic? Friends couldnt hear me.

Hey was wondering, maybe I am just missing something. But tried to video chat the 1st time. I could hear my friend, we could see each other but she couldnt hear me. Tried with the headset too. No luck. Am I missing something here? Is there a built in mic? Something I need to do? Thanks.
My mic works, sometimes the person I chat with says my voice breaks up.
Im not sure where the mic is located.
the mic is next to the front facing camera.

mine works great, sipdroid/pbxes/google voice, just cant get inbound calls.
Thanks, Thats what I thought too, that its next to the camera, I need to test it out somehow.. maybe Ill try recording a video just to see if it even works. (Not that I got a defective model.. which would SUCK)

[Q] Headset not clear

Hi guys,
I am facing trouble while using a head set with my phone for making calls. The person at the other end is hearing noises and distortions making the call quality really poor and making the headset useless. I tried with many headsets but its it till there. Without the head set the call quality is pretty fine.
The odd thing is that while doing voice calls through Skype, this issue does not pop up.
I am using 16gb s advance running stock JB android. Does anyone else face this issue?
Thanks.

I was using headset that I got from the phone, white one. And I did not have any problems before. On stock, did not try it on CM ROMs.

Then it must be a hardware problem (not sure why skype calls works fine though ). Will get it checked out by Samsung guys. Thanks
