I had never tried talking on phone through watch because I wasn't sure it would work well. But I tried today...and all it did was answer the phone, but I had to use the phone to talk.
I see no reason I'd want to click answer on the watch of I have to head the phone to talk anyway.
So my question is am I supposed to be able to do that?

Yes you are and it works for me. I've done it a few times when I can't reach my phone. The person on the other end didn't even realise that I was talking via my watch.

I hope you guys get what I mean. I used to have a Samsung Android and it shakes when calls are established. It didn't shake when I was waiting for the other side to pick up the call but it shook once at the exact moment when the other side was picking up the phone. Such a feature delays the contact between my head and the phone. Some people told me that the radiation is strong when the phone is on the 'calling' status. I don't know if this is true so I'd rather believe it.
Is there a setting in our LG Optimus Black for enabling such a feature?
Are you on a stock ROM? If yes, em sure that its not available via stock ROM but maybe there is some app out there that can work for you.
If you are on CynogenMod 7, Yes you have that function built-into the ROM. Look into settings, call settings, vibrate on answer

Thank you for your reply. I have the option you mentioned checked, by default. It does not variate when a call is answered. Does it work for you?
Yes mine works. I am not sure if it has something to do with haptic feedback or not but you should try to enable it too, maybe that helps.
Maybe you can use an app called CallVibrate
Works exactly the way you want on my OB.
Hope that helps.

This is a known GV issue across devices, I know people have had this problem on the S3, so no it's not your rom.
Sent from my S3 on Sense 5 (you jelly?)
This is not only an issue with gv, this happens from android to android or from android to iPhone regardless of having or using gv. I tested with other android phones, I phones, and multiple SMS apps, anything after the @ is dropped for some reason
I set up G Voice integration, and now when i get a call and my laptop is logged into Gmail, the call rings on the computer first, and only at the end does it ring on the phone. Is there any way to disable this, and have it just ring on the phone only... Or is this a by-product of having my Sprint number as my G Voice #? I unchecked forward to Google Chat in my G Voice settings on the laptop...
Also, what happens if i do answer via Google Chat on the laptop? Haven't tried that yet lol

If you do answer through Google Chat it will not ring on your phone and it will use your speakers and your mic to answer the call. You will literally answer the call on your laptop.

Interesting, i might have to try that next time. I guess there is no way i could get charged for that?
Also, if i close my Gmail window when i leave the house, it will ring on my phone like normal? I have the box checked to forward calls to my Sprint phone..

Correct. It can be a little startling at times, but for the most part the Google Voice/Sprint integration works pretty well. I believe Cyanogenmod is working on a system-level Google Voice integration for receipt/sending via the stock messaging app, but if you can't wait, there's also a good AOSP-styled app called Messaging + Google Voice on the Play Store. I haven't tried it for a while (there was an annoying duplication bug where you'd receive messages twice in the app-- once over carrier, once over Google Voice, but they told me it'd be fixed soon).
Yeah, I'm pretty happy with the integration so far. I'm fine with texting the way it is, i think, because with the integration i already text thru the stock messaging app? And i like receiving texts to that number on my other phones thru the Google Voice app.... I prefer to know where the text came from lol.

The reason this happens is that Google Voice rings all associated devices, but the ones that are on a faster connection ring first. The computer's network connection is loads faster than Sprint's cell connection. Note that Springs 3/4G is not involved in this comparison.

does this mean that calls are still coming in to the phone thru the cellular phone network, and not data? because that would be one concern for me, as i would think that a cellular phone network would be more reliable than a cellular data network. i could be wrong tho.
and how about with regards to texting... are they still coming over the phone network and not data?
thanks for the info guys! you probably know more than is shared on the Google Voice site itself.

Yes. Phone calls still go to the cellular network, but it is a much slower send than what the internet gets. Same goes for texting from your phone.
You're phone acts as usual, but your computer has a faster connection so it'll get those things first.

ah ok, and do you notice that it takes an extra few seconds to send a call from the phone, after enabling integration, or is it my imagination? maybe it has to get routed somehow?
On Sprint my phone never rang with calls, but Hangout does. Just wondering if anyone has tried it on Sprint

If I'm sitting at my computer Hangouts will notify me and then 20 seconds later my phone will ring. It's always been that way for me though. Update made no difference.
I'm using an actual Google Voice number not carrier integration. If you are using integration you may want to disable, call in to Sprint to make sure the soc code dropped off, and then enable it again.
Thanks. I had to disable Google voice. Did Sprint Integration. Phone rings when integration is disabled.

I have completely uninstalled Google Voice and it still rings to my computer first. It is very annoying. I also don't like the fact that I have to hit 1 to answer the call now.

DId you check your google voice setting ?
login to your g voice account> Settings>CALLs>turn off Call Screening.<--this will disable "hit 1 to answer the call "
Also, SETTING>PHONES , here should display your g voice# or ur sprint phone#, make sure your calls forwarded to your mobile.

I had the same problem, here is what I had to do. Go to voice.google.com and go to settings. Click Phones, then click edit below your sprint phone. Click show advanced settings and make sure always ring on weekdays and always ring on weekends is selected then click save. Mine were set on never ring, so my phone would never ring.

I had the same issue, but my "Always Ring" was set correctly. It either corrected itself, or changing roms helped. I am currently on Flex 360's Stock w/ Goodies 4.2.2 Beta 3, and it has been a pretty great rom. Couple minor items FC, but nothing major.
Tried the suggestions but still did not ring.

Out of town using Google voice because of poor cell coverage in Oxford Ohio. Working great. All calls ringing in. We will see when I return to MI tomorrow. Hope it's fixed.

I can't get advanced calling to work. I go into settings, I click activate advanced calling, it tells me that advanced calling 1.0 is already activated on my line, then it says I need to completely turn the phone off and on, but when I do, there is no change. I go back I to settings and it shows again I need to activate it. What am I missing?

I remembered having this issue on my Sony Xperia with Verizon. You should check to see if it is enabled in your Verizon account settings online.

He said it was a setting on their side. I could hear him literally going line by line on everything and then finally he said shut it off and restart it and then the options opened up. He said it was something in their coding and settings that needed to be fixed. If it helps at all the guys name was Justin and he was a second level tech. He seemed pretty knowledgeable. Haven't called anyone with video but voice over Wi-Fi works (same with texting over wifi).

Did you try a Google search? I found this as the leading result.
The Tab S8+ does not have a cellular modem, and is therefore incapable of placing phone calls via a cell network. You can, however, use VoIP applications such as Google Voice, which works over WiFi.

No...but a phone number is needed for some services such as SMS.
You can use any Internet connected device for Google Voice.

I think I was pretty clear - the Tab S8 cannot use SMS on its own, so to use SMS you must pair it with your phone.
If you don't want to do this, you can use a different messaging service, such as Google Messages
If you got it from Verizon, it does have a modem. But you have to use Verizon line. Like Verizon messages+ etc. The sms and call Iike none cellular tablets does not work on the Verizon tabs. They block it.
