Has anyone been successful in setting up the native SIP client on a tab running gingerbread??
I am looking for someones experiences with this native VoIP client and also can you tell me what SIP Service Provider you used?
This link describes how to configure the Android native SIP client on gingerbread devices. Perhaps someone would be kind enough to explore these settings and post your results.

UPDATE: I just learned that the 'settings' menu for internet calls does not appear by default in gingerbread. Its been disabled on our SGTs. To enable you must copy a file to system/etc/permissions. Can someone here shed some light on this? Is this only true for the stock Gingerbread thru Kies download? thanks.

I use Overcome ROM RC1 with enabled VoIP in Settings->Internet calls.
My provider is iptel.org.
I have an issue with incoming calls over SIP. I can't answer. I think the problem is in original dialer by samsung.
I'm using the Overcome ROM RC2 where the SIP option is enabled.
It works well, although the lack of keypad during a call makes it hard when you run into an automated phone service and you can't enter any dtmf tones. I would guess this is related to the problem cromed has when trying to answer a call. (I haven't received a call so can't answer first hand)
My only other grumble would be the low call volume, but this is also the case when using fring or sipdroid.
Audio quality though, is great.
Hmm. Has anyone tried one of the SIP clients on the market on their tab? Such as 'sipdroid' or CsipSimple ? Can you post your experiences here please? thanks

I have used both Sipdroid and CsipSimple. Sipdroid is pretty basic but works as described. CsipSimple ate up my battery, and Sipdroid did until I switched to a PBXES account (uses TCP instead of UDP). PBXES is a pain to setup, but once you finally figure out how it works its fine. Used it to take my DX overseas a couple times with WiFi only (used a MiFi through XCOM Global), and have perfect voice. Need to use the Speex codec for 3G connections or else you get jitter or big delays; I use it for all connections though.
Just got the GB update on the DX and sad to see no native SIP client.
I now have a Polycom connected to PBXES for my home phone. Both are trunked through Sipgate.

Well, I just upgrade SGT-P1000N to stock Gingerbread 2.3.3, and VoIP does not come enabled. Found the permission file at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1016583
UPDATE: Yep, it works. Just tested it. Works with Bluetooth headphones, yay!
It may prove my naivete to even suggest this, but I have wondered if it might be possible to sign in to a Skype account with this native dialer. Fields are limited to username, password and server. So it's that server address that eludes me.

Nope, Skype uses proprietary protocol, not SIP.
Sent from my SGT-P1000N - XDA App - Gingerbread!
I'm having the same issues as mentioned above on Overcome Gold. No way to pick up an incoming call. Outgoing call is fine but no keypad if needed.
Quality is very good.
Have tried Sipdroid, Csimple,...and other...but my prefered has been Linphone. Excellent quality.
But now I'm using GrooveIp. Work well with Google voice and allows you to make free phone call coming and outgoing.
It's a paid app..but cost $2.00 on Amazon...$4 on Google Market. YOu may have to adjust some settings to fine tune it...I had to do that.

Hi there,
anyone tested "Talkonaut" yet?
It's a VOIP Client which allows you to call your googletalk contacts via voip.
Besides that, you can integrate your existing sip accounts and make voip calls just like in sipdroid.
Just discovered it in the market and made a few tests.
I called a friend over googletalk and he can hear me clearly but unfortunately I can't hear him.
I don't know if it's the program or a wrong setting. I'm able to call the same friend with the windows gtalk client without any problems.
Then, I tried to connect to my gizmo5 account, it kinda works sometimes but very choppy. Sipdroid is better suited for this purpose.
It still seems to be in development, perhaps it gets better in the future
What would be awesome, is if there was a way to use my Google voice account with my g1 but using data and not voice hehe.

Hi all,
VOIP'ing with Android...is this still possible/worthwhile now Skype is blocking Fring?
Why / how?
All comments more than welcome!
i use sipdroid with my google voice/gizmo number
i think skype gives you the number and server info you can put into sipdroid doesnt it?
Nimbuzz works fine with Skype over WiFi, 3G/E (at least in the Netherlands) is slow.. as far as I see, best Skype solution right now..

Is it still possible to get a gizmo number? if so how?
I need VOIP so i can get rid of my blackberry and be able to receive calls in low signal areas that have wifi (ie my HOUSE)
I'm tired of carrying 2 phones to make sure i don't miss calls thanks to the UMA feature on the BB.
lets all file a complain to skype to extend skype rollout to all android devices regardless of carrier (lucky americans on verizon,damn you )
isn't there a way for videocall with skype?

i dont believe so, i signed up for it ages ago when i had my nokia and had forgotten about it, luckily i had it set up before google locked it down, hopefully they'll open it back up eventually
Personally I use SIPDROID with www.voipcheap.com (very very good rates a free call plans). If you want a good selection of DID numbers try www.localphone.com
SIPDROID does some sort of video call, if I recall correctly it is a little strange their method, never used it myself, but there is a demo on their website.

thanks for al te replies
how is Sipdroid performing on the AT&T branded phone?
its not bad, but it seems a little quiet. i had linphone on my iphone and it sounded much better
I think overall the captivate is quiet in the headphones/handset. Is there a way to add sipdroid to the list of programs to use when making an outbound call?
Use Google Voice
Use sipdroid
Use Cell
Is this possible?^

as long as you are connected with SIPDroid, you can use the options in the app:
SIPDroid only
SIPDroid when available
Phone
if you are using the first 2 options, it will default to SIPDroid.
Hmm thats a shame. I would have much preferred to be presented with that option much like googlevoice does.
I did just find the option that will overide sipdroid if you add a + at the end of a call....but how about dialing out of the phone book?
So are you guys using the latest sipdroid (1.5.x) on Captivate and it doesn't crash the dialer -- it works normally just a bit quiet, that's it?
I know on T-Mobile, some devices can make calls via WiFi. (mostly blackberries)
I wonder if this option could be ported somehow into a rom for our lovely Nexus Ones.
Man !!!! This is a GREAT Idea !!!! Let's Try ????
you are referring to UMA and afaik, the nexus one doesn't have the hardware to support it. neither did the G1. i was surprised to learn that it was a hardware requirement though, but that's what someone told me back in the G1 days
sorry to inforn you but it is software realated just tmobile hasnt released the tunnel for android yet
just download Sipdroid or 3cx from the Market and set up a free SIP account. Fairly simple and configurable to dial out with the SIP account on any combo of wifi or 3g.
I have my Google Voice number set up as a SIP account through Gizmo and Sipgate and host the SIP accounts on SIPsorcery.com because they run a script that allows you to dial out using your GV number. Google it.
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 ...

I think you forgot about Bluetooth...But, that still doesn't answer the question on how do you make it make phone calls. I want to make calls with Google Voice just like I do when I go to the website on my desktop. If anyone knows how please share!
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

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)

I dont want to get calls I just want to make them
Hero for now EVO3D day it's out! Thanks devs for all the hard work on my hero.
the point is regardless on making or receiving phone calls - your voice won't be transferred - so all you do is listen

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!
