Google voice issues on Nexus - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

is anyone else having issues with Google voice properly displaying the number that you are dialing ? this is driving me nuts.
iI make a call and the phone shows the Google exchange number NOT the number that iI am actually calling.
thanks.

Thread moved. All question threads belong here in Q&A.
Thanks

I'm experiencing it too. Tested and found it was only on nexus 4, not on galaxy nexus so it's something specific to this device.

I don't know if I fully understand the problem. I dial a number in the phone app and hit call (I have it set to always use GV) and it dials the correct number... Where exactly are you guys seeing the wrong number?

Don't think its specific to the Nexus 4.
Works fine on my Nexus 4. Number dialed is displayed at the top, while the "Calling via Google Voice" is displayed in the blue bar (which disappears after a few seconds)

I also have the same problem (4.2.2 stock).
After reboot first call is working fine, second and all other display Google's forwarded number in call log.
Here is some screenshots:
1. I start dialing some number:
2. Than immediately number changed to Google's forwarder number:
3. In call log I can see both numbers:

[Q] [BUG] honeysmartdroid window

Hello,
I found a bug in the (honeysmartdroid rom) and since I can't post it in the development thread (because of less than 10 posts) I'm posting it here hoping someone can help me.
The problem is this, when I want to use my banks app I have to fill in my card number by spinning wheels, but the window is to small in the rom so can't enter the last number.

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This also occurs with the date of birth, there also the last number is missing (you only see 199 and 198 etc.) but there I can spin it and guess wich 199 year i'm at.
So my question is:
Does someone know an easy way to fix this?
and if this isn't in the right place how do I get it there?
First of all, if you posted anywhere else but here or even better, Q&A, the thread would be closed.
As for your problem, to me it looks like a resize problem. Best thing you can do is message memnoc, attach those images and wait.
And yes, there is an easy fix for that. Flash another ROM.
EDIT: And frankly it isn't that hard to guess which year it is. If the last one 198 and the one above is 199, it's only reasonable to conclude that its 1989 and 1990. So from there I think it should be more then easy.
thanks, I wil send a message to memnoc. And like I said the problem was with entering bij bank card number (ends with 3 numbers and I can only enter 2), not with the year. That was just extra as an example.

Will this work?

This is what I'm trying to do: I want AT&T LTE service since its really good where i live but I dont want to pay the premium price for it.
In the options menu on AT&Ts website it gives you the option to opt out of text messaging and picture messaging altogether which would save $20. So my plan is to use the google voice app to send text and picture messages instead of the default messaging app. I already have a google voice number and account set up.
I'm also planning on using my google voice number to route calls to my phone so people dont get confused and/or have two numbers under my name lol
will this work? I just want to make sure that the app would use "data only"
BTW: the red galaxy S4 is just a place holder for the HTC one or S4 or Moto X Phone.

To the best of my knowledge, the Google voice application uses your minutes when making calls. Basically it calls both you and your contact ( depends on where you dial from).
It sounds like you want GrooveIP (or something similar). It connects to Google Voice over your WiFi or data connection (paid version only I think.).

Weird Google Login Error Popping Up Regularly

The above pops up sometimes on its own, as well as generally when I get an alert for a new text or the like. But my Google Account is already synced and seems to be in working order for the apps that need it. And when I click through on the above to try and log in, nothing happens.
Any thoughts as to what is causing it, and how to fix it? Been having this issue for about a week now (which induced me to try and upgrade...was not pleased with the experience, so I reverted to my most recent backup, and the problem is thus still there.
I'm not running sac's rom, but I heard there is a fix for that error in the rom thread. Do a search for google sign in error in the rom thread.

From a computer check your Google account setting to verify that two factor authentication is turned off.

Contacts names not display in sms app

After I update my phone via ODIN, sms app (including stock app) doesn't show the contacts name. Instead of that it shows phone number.
I have SM-G900F SGS5. I used UK version firmware.

You are making an assumption that the SMS apps should automatically scan your contact information and auto update. But you don't provide any history, context or details to even begin to guess if that is an accurate assumption. I'd assume that you'd need to manually update or import such information.
No doubt if you did a decent search, you'd discover which is the case in existing threads.
The suggestion to try clearing your cache is reasonable, try that first and see if it makes any difference.

Unable to send text messages

Good Evening All
I have a verizon S5 G900V.
When sending a message to a UK Number starting with +44, I get the following error:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
However, when the number starts with 0, the message sends fine.
My phone is rooted, hence any suggestions to overcome this problem will be appreciated.
Kind Regards

Is your phone from another country? I'm thinking maybe to do with modem/carrier
the uk's international label is +44, but the USA one is +1
0044 and 001
Yes, it is the Verizon model hence from the US. However, I am using it in ths UK. Sending texts numbers starting +44 results in that message. If I edit the number to start with 0, then the message sends.
sounds like its the phones automatic tendency to think its in america since its a verizon phone. Might be inherent in the ROM and part of the dialer. Could also be a setting in the dialer that would also govern texting since it uses phone numbers
