Go to Google voice settings and pick "ask every time I make an international call and then if you dial any international call, it will ask you if you want to complete the call using Google voice in the dialer. There's no need for it to prompt in the "complete action using" list.

How?
Would you mind sharing how you solved the problem? I am having the same difficulty with my new Galaxy Note 2. I want it to ask each time a place a call but I am not getting google voice as an option in the "Complete action using" popup.
Thank you!

Unfortunately GV does not present itself in that menu the way other apps do. What you need to do is go into GV settings and tell it to offer the choice of Google Voice. Then when you make a call you'd have to tap Phone first, and then a second menu offers whether to use GV. And even worse, you then get *another* menu where you have to tap Phone.

ignore call with text?

In settings-->call-->phone settings, there is an edit default message setting and a choice to edit text message before sending. This seems to imply the phone has an "ignore call with text" feature. I am coming from a Samsung Galaxy S phone that would give me 5 text options when I chose to ignore a call. Is this feature built into the Incredible 2, or do I need to download an app?
I am also looking for this feature. The only phones I've seen that have it are the Samsung Galaxy line and the LG Vortex.
When you are receiving a call hit the menu button there is an option to send a text. Not sure if that is what you are looking for?

Fear of apple has made Samsung remove the Google search function that can search on contacts on the phone. However you can reinstall it yourself. Do a search for. 'universal Google search.'
The universal Google Voice can call and text as well as do lots of other things.
If you mean the Samsung S-Voice it can dial and text with the universal goggle search.
Also you install Google Now but again it can't directly text or call but can bring up the contact with the right app.

I have to correct myself on my last post. Google Now can do mail, phone calls and texts. I was using the wrong word or phrase. I would say text so-and-so and it would give me a list of the person's contact numbers. text or send text both work the same. It can invoke the gmail program simarly.
Saying dial or call so-and so work number makes it call out. You can also state a numeric number.
It seems to not have some rather short attention span for body of the messages and unless you can get it in to the initial search it doesn't ask you what you want to send, which S-Voice does.

To get Google voice to work you must first download it from the play store. Then run it. It will tell you that it can't change your forward numbers. The go on your browser and goto the Google voice website (make sure you hit menu and request desktop site). On the site look for settings. (Somewhere in the top right. Then choose to set up your phone. Choose your carrier and it will give you a number to call. That number will change your forwarding numbers for you. Then in the voice app change settings to show voicemail in call log.

[Q] Trick Google Voice into thinking it isn't a phone.

So I want to use a GNexus with Skype and GVoice, and when I use it on a tablet and try to call someone it asks which phone number I want to cal with and I select the skype number and GVoice calls my skype, I pick up on the tablet, then it calls the outbound number. On the GNexus it just says no mobile data network available.
Anyone know how to trick GVoice into thinking (rightly in this case) that there is no phone/mobile network and let me select the number like I can on a tablet?

Just set Google Voice so it doesn't use Google Voice for any calls in the settings.

No change.
On a tablet it comes up with a window asking which phone you want GVoice to call, there is no popup here, I think the setting in GVoice saying don't use GVoice just means have the dialer call the outbound number directly, rather than calling GVoice (which gets a data packet sent to it teling it you are caling and this is the number you want GVoice to connect you to).
What I'm trying to do is essentially get the phone to forget that it can make phonecalls.

Can I not make calls using the 360?

One of the things I liked about the Galaxy gear was being able to make calls easily from it. On the 360 if I use Google now and say "call John Doe" all it does is perform a web search for that term.
Is it not possible to use the 360 to dictate to your phone to call someone? I use a Bluetooth headset and it would be great to be able to make the call utilizing the 360 and not pull out my phone.
Well, for me anyway yes it does work fine. "Call Victoria on her mobile" is recognized as such, triggers call on phone, closes Google now on watch, and call is going through as I pick up my phone.
I said 'for me' because I am using a Moto X and have enjoyed this sorry of functionality for a while, so not sure if the phone is helping that process or not....
Have you tried a more unique name, maybe only one of in your address book?
I perform calls voice as well. Not sure why it isn't working for you

Does it work if you open google now from your phone and tell it to dial a contact? If so then I am not sure why it is doing that..
IF however it also doesn't dial when you use it on your phone directly, it is likely a settings issue. Fix:
1. Go into google now/google search.
2. Scroll to the very bottom of all the cards.
3. Click on the 3 dots on the bottom right side.
4. Click settings and go to Accounts & privacy.
5. Make sure that Contact recognition is check-marked and if it isn't do so.
6. Test and hopefully enjoy the feature! :fingers-crossed:
I said "call..." and it did a Google search. Then I tried "place a call to..." And it worked for me.

[Q] Question about SkyDragon and Google Now Launcher

I'm sorry I have to start this thread. I am new at all of this and new to the forum, so I am not allowed to post it in the thread for Skydragon... so, here we go.
I flashed skydragon on my T-mobile Lg G3... i LOVE IT.
Somehow I have google now launcher as an option, I use it on my nexus 5 and really loved the phone call feature where when you search for a location, it gives me the phone number. I thought I would use it but the phone call feature isn't there. It uses the LG phone / calling method.
I tried to uninstall google now launcher to reinstall it to see if it would work. I can't delete.
any ideas for how to get this feature on my phone?
Thanks in advance!
Im not sure what you mean by lg calling feature. When i search for a business it will give the option to call, directions or website. And when i click call it takes me to the dialer and i have to press the call button. What did your nexus 5 do?

Sorry,
I was talking about the google launcher... specifically i was looking for this http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-g3/themes-apps/google-dialer-t2824937
I tried this and it worked!!!!! SO SWEET!!!!!!
BTW, what it does is straight from the dialer. I can hit the phone button and enter a contact or a business and get the number for the contact or local places... straight from the dialer, not from a google now search. it seems pretty nominal but if you have it it's pretty awesome.
Ohhhhh ive never seen that, pretty cool
