Calling out caller ID / name, on incoming calls - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Is there a way to enable calling out caller ID / names (on speaker phone) on incoming calls. This feature is available on other phones and would be nice to have on TP2.

MS Voice Command will do this. I don't know what carrier you have, but my TP2 from Verizon has MS Voice Command installed on the stock ROM.

Microsoft Voice Command - problem

Using Hermes/TyTn. I have found that using MS VC 1.6 with announce incoming calls activated, that when a call comes in where the number is masked, and therefore it cannot announce who it is, it simply does nothing and you miss the call. If the call does not have number masking it works fine, announces who it is or the number calling. Anyone found this and if so a work around?

[Q] Google Voice Caller ID

Does anyone know of a way to make it so when you receive a Google Voice call it will show the caller id of the caller and also a notification that the call is coming through from your Google Voice number?

[Q] Forwarding calls to SIP account

So I've been trying to get to where I can turn on airplane mode, then flip WiFi on and still be able to receive calls. I'm not using T-Mobile (but have the M919), so the WiFi calling feature doesn't apply. I'm using SipDroid + Google Voice with a PBXes.org account. My problem is that when people call my cell number (which is forwarded to my GV number) with my mobile service turned off they get redirected to my Google Voicemail. If, on the other hand, someone calls my GV number, my phone rings and I can answer it with SipDroid; making outgoing calls via SipDroid also work flawlessly. I have unanswered and unreachable call forwarding activated to forward calls to my GV number but it's just not working as I expect it to. Any advice?

I used Groove IP for this and the way to get it to work correctly was, I believe, to make sure that GV's settings are forwarding calls on to Google Chat. It sounds like you already have that set, since you can get direct calls to your GV number, but you might want to make sure all the settings are correct on the GV side.

[Q] Google Voice fails to intercept international calls

I know this is not a rom issue, because exact same thing has been happening on my previous rom as well. My Google Voice is set up to make outgoing calls via Google Voice for international calls only. What's happening is - Voice only intercepts calls, when the phone # is punched directly on the dial pad of the Phone app. If i try to make international phone call, by clicking the number in my Contacts, or another app tries to dial international number directly, bypassing the dial pad - Google Voice doesnt intercept these calls and my phone dials those numbers directly, resulting in large bills from T-Mobile for international calls without a plan.
Does anyone know if this is Google Voice issue or Android issue and how to fix this?
bump....anyone?

[Q] Google Voice in lieu of Wifi Calling?

I'm tired of needing touchwiz for Wifi Calling. The big question of this thread is "Can a google voice and hangouts dialer setup replace Wifi Calling?"
and how to set it up?
NOTE: I still want others to reach me on my Tmo number for voice and SMS. Where possible, I DON'T want others to see calls or SMSs from me coming from my GV number. This is what's nice about Tmo WiFi calling. It looks like you are just on the carrier network to everyone else.
What I'm trying so far:
-------Turned off wifi calling.-------
1) Keep my Tmobile number (not ported to GV) but set forwarding in the phone dialer app to forward to google voice number. This was necessary to handle voice mail in google voice before.
- Starting with "always forward" turned OFF, not sure if it should be ON or not yet because I'd think I still want my Tmo number to ring normally when Tmo coverage is OK. If coverage is bad, "unreachable" setting should forward to GV number and if I'm on Wifi, Hangouts should ring. (This part worries me and needs a lot of testing)
2) Hangouts handles SMS and the Hangouts dialer is installed.
-Hangouts SMS settings sends SMS from my Tmo number.
-Hangouts account settings for Google Voice set to ring Hangouts for incoming calls made to GV number.
Q: what happens when SMS comes into my Tmo number but I'm out of Tmo coverage on Wifi? Is there a way to forward SMS when 'unreachable" ?
Q: from what I've seen when using Wifi Calling, outbound SMSs don't send unless Tmo coverage is good. Is there any way to have Hangouts relay SMSs over a data connection? (unlikely, but want to ask)
3) Google Voice app is installed. This is still required but may soon be unnecessary.
- GV settings currently on "do not use Google Voice to make any calls"
4) When tmobile coverage is good, dial out with default dialer, When coverage is bad and I'm on Wifi, use hangouts dialer.
- I think my caller id in outbound calls would show my GV number. I don't know any way around this yet.
5) Disable 'double ring' See http://www.cnet.com/how-to/tips-for-google-voice-in-hangouts-on-android/
6) Incoming caller ID shows caller's number in GV settings under "Calls"
