[HOWTO] Free Incoming & Outgoing Calls via Wifi (Using Google Voice & Gizmo5)

1) Setup or Login to your gizmo5 account page (www.gizmo5.com)
2) There should be a section explicitly for entering your Google Voice username and password. Enter your username and password. Also be sure to make a note of your full 11 digit Gizmo5 number

3) Download and open the SIPDroid app from the market. In the SIPDroid app, hit Menu and press Settings. Enter:
Username: your 11 digit Gizmo5 number (e.g. 17475555555)
Password: your Gizmo5 password
Server: proxy01.sipphone.com
4) Turn on your phone's Wifi connection. Make sure SIPDroid is running (should be in the Ongoing section of the notifications drop down menu).
5) Login to Google Voice (www.google.com/voice). Add & Verify your Gizmo5 number. If you set up SIPDroid correctly and your wifi is working properly, your G1 should ring. It took a few tries for the phone to actually ring but eventually it did for me.
Yes, you need a Google Voice account. No, no one can invite you except Google. Incoming calls on Gizmo5 are free. Outgoing calls are free only in the U.S. International calls are subject to Google Voice's rates. Ask further questions and discuss below!

Hmm, so it only works with WiFi?
It doesn't work with 3g/edge?

Thank you very much finally a way to do this!!

SIPDroid has an option to do it with 3G but I think this goes against T-Mobile's terms of use.

this is bs!!! You can get both free without using that!
Here's how:
Use the app GV. call from there. It will then call you with your GV calling you(free on mygay) then call the person. Look you can use it at any time.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that would count as incoming minutes.

I think that's right... so by using Gizmo5, are we just bypassing the use of incoming minutes?
Say if I wanted to call Iran, I would only be paying the 8.2 cents a minute to Iran and not be charged for any minutes with T-mobile?

if 8.2 cents is what google voice charges than yes and no minutes used, also works great if you are outside the country and want to call in, then all you need is some wifi and your good to go FREE..
also not everyone has a my faves plan.. or my gay as that guy calls it so this is very awesome
BTW install full version and u can talk over 3G ;] http://code.google.com/p/sipdroid/

1) This is not limited to wifi. Install Sipdroid-full from sipdroid.org for access over cellular network (assuming your carrier isn't blocking port 5060).
2) Not sure I trust Gizmo enough at this point to give it my Google password.
3) Gizmo has created a customized version of Sipdroid specifically for the purpose of making and receiving free calls to US numbers using Google Voice. Details here. Again, I haven't tried it myself as I don't trust Gizmo with my Google pw.

Can I remind everyone that this is a family website and that all language should reflect that

I was under the impression this sort of thing is against T-Mobile's terms and thus, while possible with 3G, not to be done.
And that Guava app is buggy for me. If they straighten it out, would make setup much easier.

So im using this with wifi bc im out of the country.. my outgoing calls work perfect and very clear but they are limited to 3 mins.. Now my incoming calls are my problem.. if someone dials me from google voice to my gizmo5 # it comes through and they hear me perfect but I cant hear them!!!. But if someone dials my google voice number it does not go through to my sipdroid and I dont get the call, not from a land line, not from a cell, and not from google voice they have to dial my sipnumber and only from google voice does it seem to be working.. and when i get the call i hear nothing :/ anyone want to help it would be greatly appreciated
EDIT: just finish posting and i received a call from my mother and it work she heard me i heard her and she dialead my google voice number?? any thoughts

MiFi Fast Enough Now to Replace Phone
With Verizon's 4G LTE MiFi hotspot and an unlocked iPhone I was able to replace my mobile plan. I'm saving $100/ month. I wrote about it on my blog. You can do a similar thing with SipDroid on android devices.

[NEWS] Google Introduces VOIP Calling from Gmail!

http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2010/08/call-phones-from-gmail.html
Call phones from Gmail
Wednesday, August 25, 2010 | 9:40 AM
Posted by Robin Schriebman, Software Engineer
Gmail voice and video chat makes it easy to stay in touch with friends and family using your computer’s microphone and speakers. But until now, this required both people to be at their computers, signed into Gmail at the same time. Given that most of us don’t spend all day in front of our computers, we thought, “wouldn’t it be nice if you could call people directly on their phones?”
Starting today, you can call any phone right from Gmail.
Calls to the U.S. and Canada will be free for at least the rest of the year and calls to other countries will be billed at our very low rates. We worked hard to make these rates really cheap (see comparison table) with calls to the U.K., France, Germany, China, Japan—and many more countries—for as little as $0.02 per minute.
Dialing a phone number works just like a normal phone. Just click “Call phone” at the top of your chat list and dial a number or enter a contact’s name.

We’ve been testing this feature internally and have found it to be useful in a lot of situations, ranging from making a quick call to a restaurant to placing a call when you’re in an area with bad reception.
If you have a Google Voice phone number, calls made from Gmail will display this number as the outbound caller ID. And if you decide to, you can receive calls made to this number right inside Gmail (see instructions).
We’re rolling out this feature to U.S. based Gmail users over the next few days, so you’ll be ready to get started once “Call Phones” shows up in your chat list (you will need to install the voice and video plug-in if you haven’t already). If you’re using Google Apps for your school or business, then you won’t see it quite yet. We’re working on making this available more broadly - so stay tuned!
For more information, visit gmail.com/call.

Amazing!
Now, the question is: how to make these VOIP calls from the Nexus One over Wi-fi?!
Goodbye Skype, RIP

I'm sure it's only a matter of time before the google voice app works over wifi and 3g.

Voip on android phone is now within our grasp MUHAHAHAHA!!!

Add SIP and Canadian local numbers/signups and this will be great. I'd use the 3cx soft phone app and be happy.

I guess I'm kinda confused, I've been in the Google Voice beta for some time now, well since I got my Nexus one back in March.
Google Voice isn't in beta anymore and anyone can sign up for free... Doesn't this already provide us with VOIP using the Google Voice Application on the Market?

No, though you are correct that it already works on wifi and 3g, i believe he was talking about a VOIP application from Google that can work on both of those. Currently GV is NOT a voip service,ll it is is a fancy forwarder (a very useful forwarder) it still takes minutes to call people. We are hoping that they will eventually convert it into a voip client like the gmail client just did explained in the article.

GV VOIP on the Android headset would change the whole telephone industry. I'd imagine big companies have been worrying about this for a while. Data rates would have to be seriously reconsidered. Unlimited data in the US, if a GV VOIP integration was made, would explode. This is why Verizon has locked down the Skype app to their voice network.
The last I read before this release was that Google was trying to nail down the mic/speaker driver interactions with the browser itself. They had almost abandoned the project. That's where those fancy Chrome/Mozilla plugins come in. With CM's mod, I tried visiting gmail with desktop as the user agent, but without those plugins it's useless.

Hey guys,
Not really a Nexus question, but the dialer locks up my system when I try to make a call from it. Is the dialer a java program that isn't playing nice with my Vista system?
Any advice on how to fix this?

sure, well part of it, if you are out in the middle of no where and only hada wifi (no carrier signal) you could still send/ recieve google voice txts, but you would not recieve any calls since the calls are still routed through your carrier since GV is not a voip service, just a VERY fancy (and useful) call forwarder.

Looks like there's some confusion as to what Google Voice is versus what Gmail Calling is.
Google Voice is absolutely nothing but a call forwarding service. The instant that the call connects (ie you the other person's phone ringing), you are 100% using your cell phone carrier's signal and 0 data. Zero. None. Zilch. No VOIP whatsoever. Google Voice simply connects you to the other person, that's it. You're still using your cell phone's minutes.
The only data is the initial 3 seconds between the instant you hit Call and the instant the other person's phone starts ringing. It uses data to connect the call through Google Voice's servers. So sure, that 3 seconds before the call connects can use 3G or Wifi.
Gmail Calling on the other hand, is 100% VOIP. You call through your PC, using your DSL connection, Cable, Satellite, Starbucks Wifi, 56K modem, etc. 100% data. It uses 0 cell phone minutes, because obviously your PC has no idea what cell phone carrier you have, or if you even have a phone at all.
Google Voice and Gmail Calling = two completely different products.
Now, my question is:
How do we get Gmail Calling (VOIP) on the Nexus One?

Good explanation, I cant imagine why it is taking google so long to get VOIP going, Gizmo5 had it all up and working it should only be minor changes. This leads me to believe there is something more going on like the carriers would revolt against google if every android phone only needed a data plan. Honestly the entire carrier industry would be turned on its head if google goes VOIP.

That may be part of it, but I cant imagine the FCC EVER allowing that deal to go through. Have you even read it?! Its totally BS. The FCC has to have some line drawn in the sand that says "this point an no farther". There needs to be a shift in the way the internet is treated.

Just got invited to the Sprint-GV Integration..but!!

They wanna charge 20 bucks for doing so!!

That's what Google charges for porting a number into GV. Been standard since they launched number porting..
I'm hoping using your GV number as your Sprint number is free, as that's what I'm planning on doing.

Got mine too and am using my sprint number as GV. Less hassle, more folks know it, etc.
I did NOT choose option 2.
No fee for me.

That's very odd. I just started using my Sprint number as my GV number this morning. I wasn't charged anything either.

For those of you that are getting the $20 charge - wait about an hour and try again. That screen should go away. I have read that Google got ahead of themselves and your account had not been updated yet.

Everything should be fine now. Just ported my number.. no charge!

Ok this was odd.. I logged on to google voice today and as soon after I logged on I had this pop up asking me if I wanted to port the phone number so I did and then no 20 bucks fee now..

Ported my existing Voice number to Sprint. Loving not needing the Voice app but am having issues receiving MMS sent to my GV number. I know Voice doesn't support MMS but I thought with the integration it would still come into my phone throught the stock text app. Anyone else who uses their GV number had any success or failure with this? Sent to my regular Sprint number they work fine.

I also had trouble with txt and mms sent to my phone I installed GV and I was getting the SMS on GV app and the MMS on Handcent.
Which honestly was annoying to me.. so needless to say I switched back and left GV

I got the invite on Thursday, and immediately switched my Sprint # to my GV #. I have two issues that bother me, but aren't deal breakers.
1. The mms/sms issue spoken of above. On top of that, when I first enabled my number, sms would not go to my native sms app, but only to GV. Mms would go to the messaging app. There is a setting to change this, a guy over at AF helped me to figure it out, so now the sms goes to both the sms and GV app, and along with that comes double notifications, which I can't turn off because it will disable voicemail notifications as well.
2. When I answer a call, I must press the answer call button on screen, then open the keypad and press 1 to allow the call. Kind of a pita, but Now I can't go back to the way it was with both numbers and GV as my VM app.
Idk if I'm missing a setting somewhere, or what, but those are my issues with it.
Sorry for the long post....

With the email it sends you a link to the Voice site where you can listen to it if you want. Downside is that it only plays on the external speaker.

Google voice + VoIP + Data only plan

Good afternoon and forgive me if this question has been answered. My ultimate goal is to pay $40/ month for 4 gigs of data w/ no voice/text plan. By configuring Google Voice to work on VoIP, I can call nation wide as well as still send/receive SMS all with my Google Voice number. Once I have my device setup with data only, what do I need to do to achieve this?
Also, my device isn't rooted yet but I plan on doing so and putting the google play s4 rom on it. If that matters..

Its been a while since I've last used Google Voice, but to my knowledge the most recent update uses the cellular network to send text messages. I would imagine this would also effect voice calls.

I've dabbled with voip over cellular, to make it work well, you really need to have lte. Lte will prioritize SIP traffic, making calls clear, hspa+ or anything slower will cause hiccups.
Unless you don't ever plan to leave lte service area, keep your voice plan.
Sent from my SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app

Yes, it can be done. That's my current setup. I don't even have a SIM card on my phone, but use WiFi (Wireless hotspot). I use Google Voice for outgoing and incoming calls and SMS with an app. No root needed.
I'm not sure if posting this info here is against the rules, but since it will answer your question directly, and I am not affiliated with the developer in any way, I thought I'll give you the info. The app is called GrooveIP. I have the paid version, but apparently they released a free version as well, which was not available when I first discovered the app. I'm sure there are other apps for this as well.
The problem with this setup is that you need to have a strong data connection wherever you go for it to work as a voice plan replacement. You can get away with SMS on a relatively slow connection (decent EDGE or GPRS) but you need solid 4G or fast 3G on to get decent voice. At least that has been my experience.
Try it out for yourself. It will depend on where you live / travel / commute, so give it a shot and let us know how it worked for you. Hope this helps.

Thank you so much! Will check it out and post results

Google voice does sms over wifi with no problem. It does not do mms though.

Ended up rooting and installing the Google Play ROM which is my favorite interface and also allows SIP configuring. I'll be using GrooveIP along with Google Voice to turn my device(s) into VoIP. Thanks for all the quick replies!

Google Voice on Sprint LG G6

On my previous Sprint phones, I was able to use the Google Voice / Sprint integration feature, where my Google Voice number was my Sprint number.
With my new G6, I've found that the Google Voice integration was removed from my Sprint account. When I try to re-enable it from Google Voice, I get:

From what I've read online about it, the problem is that if you enable WiFi Calling on your Sprint account, regardless of what phone you have, Sprint disables the Google Voice integration.
Sprint forum
Google Voice forum
The odd thing is that I've had both features enabled on my account for several years, on at least my two previous Sprint phones.
Is anyone able to have both enabled at the same time on the G6? Is there any way around this? I can't be without WiFi calling, and I like the [free] visual voicemail in Google Voice.

There's only 1% that doesn't have Google Voice and that's you. Sprint sucks. ?
That's a bummer. ?

Interesting. The Google voice integration was one of the only things I missed switching from Sprint.
Maybe it has to do with the e911 service? Call Sprint and see what they say.

I had this issue with my S7 edge and "fixed" it by disabling WiFi calling.
Somehow, WiFi calling got enabled on my G6 and now, even after I've disabled it, I still can't get GV working.
Anyone have any ideas?
I did just get GV working with the help of Sprint tech support. She did a call forward on her end and then I did the no-answer call forward on my end, but the dialer code has changed. Used to be *28xxxxxxxxxx and now it's *73XXXXXXXXXX.

Shortly after I originally posted, I gave up on the full Sprint/GV integration, as I realized I didn't need it and WiFi calling was way more important. I really just wanted GV's visual voicemail. I found this Sprint forum information on Conditional Call Forwarding using *73.

I wish I had found this earlier! Wonderful information.

Is anyone able to have both enabled at the same time on the G6? Is there any way around this? I can't be without WiFi calling, and I like the [free] visual voicemail in Google Voice.

could you use Hangouts or Talkatone or Text now for your outgoing calls on just the wifi?

I had to make sure wifi calling was deactivated before I could get Google voice to work on my lg g6. Once you activate Google voice your hd voice won't work anymore either.
