Sip over cell networks? - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am looking to do some sip calling using my data plan. I like the stock rom is there a flashable zip to allow sip calling over 3g? If not is there a custom rom that allows this? Thanks in advance.

SIP stands for Session Initiation Protocol, and it is a standard for Voice over Internet Protocol (Voip).
@420247paul, do you have a SIP server available? CM7 has an "Internet Calling" option in the "Call settings" section of its configuration. We have a VoIP server here at my work, and it was fairly simple to configure the Internet Calling to work with our server. It was able to dial and receive calls even using the data plan. (3G speeds made for poor quality calls, however.)
Keep in mind that using SIP calling will drain your battery faster than the water trough of a Kentucky Derby winner. (It uses a lot of battery. )

ok..i dont do internet calling. thanks for info, sorry couldnt help

[Q] Have both GSM & WIFI running, is it possible?

Greetings All,
I am looking for a way to have both data connections running on the Desire, is there a way to make it happen? I understand that the battery will die out quicker its just something I want to toy with. We are looking at having SIP in our factory and I noticed that while playing with SIP and due to the strict nature of our work Internet I was no longer able to access gmail/htc mail and pretty much any other data using app. This is why I want to enable GSM data as well.
Any ideas? Tried searching but did not find anything relevant.
Don't wanna b too rude here but can't u just access those apps through ur 3g connection? Unless ofcourse ur carrier doesn't supply one

Not being rude at all . Problem is that when the wifi is enabled the data connections (G, E, 3G & HSDPA) get disabled. I would like to keep those active and have only the wifi use the sip.

I thought it would not be possible. Thanks for the answers much appreciated.

I think this will not work because there is only one 'network card' in you phone, one place where the internet connection is processed. Your phone can acces the internet either via WiFi or 3G but not both at the same time just as your computer can't do LAN and WLAN at the same time
It is not possible.
10chars.
I kinda figured that. I then found this gem which solved all my problems:

Now I am just need it to support "Allow local network connecting to skip proxy" and I will be very happy. Thanks for the all the responses .

[Q] Can the incredible do wifi calling?

Does the droid incredible support wifi calling?
i saw that the vibrant has a app for it that did wifi calling which made me think of my droid incredible
so is any1 looking at making a app that will make it do wifi calling with a app of some sort like the vibrant and is there no need for one?
I'm using sense 3.0 and ive played with it enough i think to never see that feature on it before.
For me the only1's to get signal were i live is at&t and us cellular lol.
Look for Groove IP in the Market. Groove uses your Google Voice number to make calls over a data connection--WiFi or mobile data.
If you are running gingerbread there is internet calling built in. Look at the bottom of the settings - call menu. Also sipdroid, csipsimple (i think that how its spelled) and others can do the same. And, as the poster above mentioned, you can setup Google voice to make internet calls for you. I have a decommissioned Droid Eris setup to take and receive calls over wifi, that replaced my home phone because it costs me nothing. Let me know if you want links to threads with more info

Thanks!
Well i guess i haven't used the rom enough haha. thanks for taking the time to reply to my silly question lol
Do you need to have cellular service on the phone you want to setup IP/Wifi calling on? I also have a decommissioned Eris that I'd like to setup, but when I try Google Voice, it tries to verify my number and fails (as expected on a phone with no service).
It's been a while since I set up a GV number but why are you trying to connect your GV number to a phone? If you do that it will attempt to verify it. Can you just sign up for a number without doing that? If so, once you do just sign in to that GV number with GrooVe IP from decomissioned phone. You don't need and active celluar service on it.

awesome! I'll give that a try, being that I do have a GV number already on my Dinc.
I cant seem to get this working maybe the apps have been updated? Any help would be great.
Groove IP works pretty good for me
Does that work with the htc dailer

SIP / Wifi Calling for ICS

Hi All--
I have configured SIP calling through pbexes.org using the native implementation in ICS
However, I'm running into a little trouble, and was hoping for some help:
Anyone know how to DISABLE sip calling while on 3g, and only have it active on Wifi?
Also, I can only seem to get it to make 'internet calls' (sip) when I have DISABLED calling from google voice. weirdness.
Mine its setup to ask how I would like to make the call, via cellular service or voip.

accesspoint to 3g sip connection

Hi you clever guys
I have a rooted Samsung gts5830 - android 2.3.3 setup as a access point and it is connected to a 3g network by a data connection. I want to use a Samsung pocket (gts5300)-android 2.3.6 to make sip calls by connecting by wifi to the gts 5830 and then to the 3g network. I can make sip calls with the gts5830 but fail to get a registration with the gts5300 over wifi. What is the reason and how can I achieve my goal ? Any help will be appreciated
Maybe a few months too late, but is it clear YOU cant use internet when you are hosting a wifi spot? That's what I understand from your text

Alternative to T-mobile Wifi Calling for signal deadzone

I work in a small office in the middle of a building. There are no windows and apparently the only provider you can get a signal with at our current location is AT&T. I can't hook up my picocell I got from Tmo and don't want to use any alternative call forwarding services, as I'm already using Google Voice and don't want to add more on top of it. Is SIP internet calling a possible option?
What about Skype?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
If you are already using Google Voice, the easiest option is to just buy Groove IP, then instant wifi calling.
Or, bongostl made step by step directions for getting it to work with SIP for better call quality:

SIP VOIP services can be an option but are a bit clumsy. Lots of info in here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646755
If you're at a PC you can always use the Google Voice number with Google Talk to make calls.
