I have unlocked my G1 to use with my AT&T SIM card, and sometimes, my friends text me saying that they called me a few times and I didn't answer, but my phone has not rung at all. So I was curious and called my phone with a few of my friends' phones, and it does not ring sometimes. Out of 13 different calls, only 3 of them rang on my phone. I think texting works perfectly fine though. Can someone please help? Thank you!
I can't help you right away but I can guide you to a thread where people are discussing similar problem and trying to find an answer.

if you are using a Tmo G1 on the ATT network, then I believe it will be EDGE only. I could be wrong, but I thought that EDGE didn't allow simultaneous voice and data. Maybe you've got something running in the background and it's blocking the voice calls. Try turning data off, just phone only and see if it works.

I don't think that it works like that. Voice calls should still come through, but data will be blocked when it does. This is because the network doesn't provide enough bandwidth to support both at the same time.
How does it work?
Do I need 3g signal?

No you don't need 3g... It's not voip or anything, just an all-you-can-eat voice service that latches on to your existing phone numbers, and gives you an additional phone number when if called, can make more than one of your phones ring (cell, landline, office, etc). The app gives you more convenient control to the more common features used.
Take a look on google.com/googlevoice/about.html because there is a lot to this service. I use it only to read transcriptions (sometimes very inaccurate and hilarious) of my voicemails.
Thanks

Hello
I just recently bought a tab. I was under the impression i could use it to make calls. I have service with tmobile and have been trying to use modem switcher. If i use my sim that came with tab i get a msg saying i am unable to make calls from this number. If i take the sim out of my vibrant it seems to work. But my question is if it is possible to do it with my sim card that came with it and os 3g and voice possible.

I don't think [and I say think because i'm only 99% sure i'm correct] that you can use the data only sim to call. That service wasn't activated on the sim because they don't expect you to be using your tab to call people.
Short answer, no, you can't get 3g and voice with tmobile.
Long answer, you can get 2g and voice with a #censored for legal reasons# imei using a data plus voice sim.

I am looking at adding the wifi hotspot service to my phone.
I'm wondering if anybody uses it and what your experiences are?
Any things I should watch out for?
A salesman at Best Buy told me that while hotspot is running I can't make or receive phone calls, is this true?
I should clarify, I'm asking about the Verizon mobile hotspot service added to my account. I am not asking about the hacks to steal the service. I understand the reasons others use them, it's just not for me. Whether I like their rules or not, it's Verizon's network so I'm going to play by the rules.
EDIT: it looks like I have the primary answer I was concerned about, you can still make and receive calls while using the hotspot.
I have the 4g LTE hotspot on my Galaxy Nexus. Most of the time when I'm using it, I'm in 3g mode. If a call comes in, it suspends the internet connection until the call is over. I've never tried making a call while using the hotspot, and I'm not sure what would happen when using the hotspot in 4g LTE mode. Since voice calls don't use 4g LTE, I don't see why it wouldn't allow voice calls while using 4g LTE hotspot.

That's pretty much what I expected, what the tech was telling me didn't make sense. It did have just enough plausibility to it though as a carry over from the 3g days when they couldn't do voice and data at the same time.

Thanks, I thought that was one of the draws of lte was being able to have data and voice at the same time.
I'm starting to think this is a viable option as our home internet connection, dropped Comcast a last fall and been using just out phones. It has been working but finding more and more times where I need to get my computer online.

When you are using it are you running on battery or plugged in?
If you're running plugged in does it have the power to run like that indefinitely or does it still drain your battery?
Has anyone found that they cannot setup Google Voice to work ?
Even though my voicemail provider is set as google Voice, I'm still getting calls sent to the default T-Mo voicemail.
I've looked in the Verizon S6 threads, and smeone mentioned turning off VOLTE, but VOLTE is already turned off.
Anyone else having issues ?
Works fine for me but I originally set it up on my previous phone not sure if that matters or not. The only negative thing that happened with voice on this phone so far was one voicemail without a notification.
I've found my voicemail gets routed over to T-Mobile's app. Not really sure how to get it working right again. I too will be interested in seeing if others have a solution
