I just got my bill from sprint and umm HOLY CRAP! 911 bucks. Evidently since I use the google voice app to make all my calls Sprint recognizes this as a land line and I got charged for all calls. I have my google # as a free number thru sprint but the google app uses another number to forward the call. So is there a google app that calls your google number then processes it that way so it looks like you're calling your google number?

download google voice call back from the market and use it to make calls with your gvoice number
Wow, if this is real and legitimate, this needs major attention, and needs to be posted everywhere. I don't use G Voice, but I believe most people using the aosp roms and the Z ports are using google voice, and would probably really love to know about this.

Absolute Real and Unfortunately Legit! Sprint has free mobile to mobile but if you make a Google voice call you will notice a screen pops up showing you the number it's calling. I never thought about it but I had no outbound calls on my phone that I actually dialed since I use google voice for ALL my calls. Now the funny thing was I was going down the list of random numbers on my bill and I can call them and my cell phone will ring, because it was the forwarding number. Sprint is going to credit me the money but told me to delete the app they will only do this once.

*sigh* Old news is old.
By default, here's how GVoice and billing works:
IF you setup "Caller ID (incoming): Display caller's number" in the Google Voice site's settings:
Incoming call from a cellphone: Anymobile Anytime (unlimited/free)*
Incoming call from a landline: Regular (limited/not-free)*
Outgoing call to any number: Regular (limited/not-free)*
If you use Google Voice Callback from the Market, Gv will call you using your GV number.*
*Usually. Not 100% of the time guaranteed.
Also, OP, how'd you get Sprint to make your GV number free?
How many calls do you make per month? I use Google Voice all the time, even for business and have never gone over the limit.
I just re-downloaded Google Voice for my Android. I tried it a few months back but installed a new ROM and never reinstalled it.
I decided I wanted to be able to use my Google Voice number again so I re-downloaded it and when I went to set it up, Google Voice tells me they have partnered with Sprint and it's asking me if I want to do the fully intergrated install for Sprint OR the standard Google Voice install.
What is the difference?
I've waited to set it up because I don't want it to take over my phone until I know what I'm getting myself into!
Thanks
*Update*
Maybe if I tell you guys WHAT I want GVoice for, you can tell me what option to use.
I want to use Google voice to hide my Sprint number. I want to be able to give out a number that people CAN call me on, without them knowing my real Sprint number, and if I return their calls, I only want them to see my GVoice number.
I also like the idea of being able to block numbers in GVoice so the caller thinks my number is no longer in service which I see you can do.
Thanks.
If you ibtergrate with sprint, your sprint telephone number can be used as your google number! One number for both.
If you want to use a seperate number for google then do this.
1. Log into google voice from computer.
2. Click on your number in top right hand corner.
3. Select phones
4. Deactivate google voice on your number.
Done!!! 2 numbers.

So then it completely defeats the purpose of using Google Voice? Everyone I know uses Google Voice to mask their cellphone providers number.
Everyone I know uses it to be anonymous. I mean I know Google knows what your real number is so like you wouldn't want to call in any bomb threats but everyone I know uses Google Voice as a disposable number. For example, bill collectors or Craigslist ads etc.
If you intergrate you may also use your google number as your number. Sorry for not explaining that!

When you install, choose use my google number and callers will see your google number. You can always change this.

OK so what does the integration do exactly then because I can use my Google Voice number without integrating and just doing the standard setup.
I'm kinda lost as to what it does exactly. Like what the point it.
Your google number is a landline, so if you intergrate, your cell makes the call but shows the landline nuber, as opposed to calling ftom the google number without intergration wich uses landline minutes!!

So if if you dont have the simply everything plan and intergrate your caller id just displays your google voice wich saves landline minutes because your calling from your cell and displaying your google number.

Im in the same boat as the OP. I just reinstalled CM7 from scratch & when I installed GV, I had the same options.
I really just use GV for the voicemail integration. I wouldnt mind being able to setup custom greetings for family members, I guess the text being saved on google is a good thing (though a little scary).
I just dont get what the point of it is if I already have a GV number (which I dont use except for voicemail).
I just dont see the benefit of porting except for the GV being the one stop phone number I give out with some blocking features.
My bigger concern is if I wanted to leave GV or sprint, how that gets handled, or what rights i am signing over to google on my information.
Any ideas on where to find more info?
THanks,
Rich

You have to pay to keep your GVoice number, though.
Integration is great for those of us who want the GVoice features (texting and voicemail from the app and web) without a separate GVoice number that everyone has to learn. I love having access to my texts from a browser, and can call people from my netbook and it shows up as my cell number.
Yes, you can do that without integration too, but this way I didn't have to teach everyone a new number. I've had my mobile number for over six years now; I don't want to get a new one.
What happens if you leave sprint? Does Google 'own' your voicemails? Does your texts go through the native app, or in the google voice app?

You can de-integrate your number. I imagine that Google would give you another Google number at that point.
This is for anyone wanting to use Google Voice as their talking system, but didn't like to because it wasn't a VoIP service. The name of the app is GrooVe IP (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.gvoip&hl=en). Instead of calling your phone number, according to the instructions, since it's calling your google chat identity, it's free AND it works over wifi! I'm sure others, like myself, who have ****ty reception on the Incredible 2 but love the phone and want to use it like an actual phone, would love to know about this app.
I second this. Also by using this method, you aren't using any of your minutes in your plan.
Too bad that it can't do VoIP for incoming calls& texts.

I'm using this for incoming calls, as well as outgoing. I have -105dbm and my calls are all choppy and often drop while I'm home. This app is different than using google voice. What happens is that everything is routed through google chat and then sent over SIP. I've pulled the back off my phone and made my phone completely lose service and then I made a call using the app and it was 100% over wifi. I then had someone call me, while the back of my phone was still off, to see if I could also receive calls over wifi and it worked. As far as texts goes, I just use the standard google voice app for texting. Too bad there isn't a way to get texts to forward to a certain number lol
How is this different from turning on the option in google voice app? I been using Gvoice since I got my phone and I have it prompt me to use it or my verizon service to call on each call. I also give the Gvoice number out as mine since it works over the data network or wifi? Can someone explain the major differences?

Actually, when you make a call through this app, you are indeed using voip but when someone calls you, there is no way that the app can do anything because google voice can only reroute the call to your phone number. There is no such thing as voip incoming calls with google voice

This isn't about using google voice or not. It is about google voice over voip, not over your mobile provider's network. Let's say you are at a underground 5 floors below. You will not be able to make any calls with the regular GV app because the app only uses the provider's network and no, it doesn't use your provider's mobile data. What it does is it calls GV server and the server re-calls to your target. You do not see this on your phone because GV app changes the number for you but the real number it's calling is something very different. Something like this 219827419875018725101250.
Anyway, with this app, you can make calls over the internet, hence the name Voice Over Internet Protocol, voip. Also since you are using your data instead of your precious minutes, you can opt for the lower minutes plan.
Right, and from my understanding, when you use just regular google voice, you're still using your minutes. I still get disconnected from calls because I have horrible reception and service out here, but using the GrooVe IP app, I'm able to pull my back off and make it say I'm completely out of service and I can make a call using the wifi.
As far as what you stated about routing it to your phone number deaf, the app tells you to deselect your phone number and to select your google chat identity which is supposed to solve the issue of it dialing through to your phone when you receive a call. It just forwards it to the google chat and the app is sort of like a mediator between google chat and your phone, and the internet recognizes it as a google chat session. At least that's the way I understood it. I'm probably completely wrong because I'm just getting this app, but I'm doing more research. I thought it went through SIP because there are options in the troubleshooting thing in the app to override the STUN server which is based off of a sipgate address.
Edit: I was just thinking of this. You said it's not working right or w/e for when incoming calls come in. Have you completely logged out of google chat online and on your phone? If you're logged into GC from anything else other than the app, it will inadvertently try to call that device. So let's say your PC is logged into GC. I call your number and the app tries to forward it to the account, but GC picks up the call before your phone can and interferes with how the app is supposed to work.
You CAN make and RECEIVE calls with this app. All you have to do is setup a google voice phone number. Then from the google voice website, you route all incoming calls to go to your google chat, not your cell phone number. Then call your google voice number and it will ring on your phone through grooveip.
For all you guys using this, what settings have you used with this app? I found that I get choppy or laggy voice that makes this app difficult to use. I think it has to do in part to how our phone manages wifi power and sleep. Any tips or tweaks that you guys have found to work best?
@ digital You were right. I didn't know that I had to check that option which it reroutes to gmail chat. I however checked both phone and Gchat so I don't know if I'd be getting both at the same time or not. :X

Go into your troubleshooting and check off to always keep your screen on. If your screen turns off, it messes with the audio for some reason. As soon as I make a call, I quickly hit my power button twice so that it goes to the lockscreen so that I don't have to worry about accidentally dialing someone else or starting an app

The standard Google Voice by itself does not. What it does is just act as a go-between for your number and your GV number. Essentially all it is, is just a dummy number that people can use to call you without actually calling your actual phone number. Using this app I suggested, the number being called when someone calls your GV number is actually being caught by Google Chat and this program is the mediator between your phone and GC, thus meaning that you're using 100% data and nothing else.
Sorry for the triple post, lol. I just figured out how to use multi-quote the right way haha. I've been using these boards for almost a month now and I JUST now figured it out.

Currently there are none that I know of that don't involve intensive setting up, such as having multiple accounts to log into, setting up multiple forwarding numbers, etc. You can try getting the APK from apktop (google apktop groove ip 1.2.9 and it's the first link) and seeing if it works, but I'm not sure if it requires cracking to be able to use. This way is probably the simplest and 100% foolproof way. The only thing I dislike about this app is that my screen has to stay on to use this app or else I have severe issues of the sound cutting in and out, so I just press home and then my power button twice to get to the lockscreen so that i don't have any apps starting up unwanted. Personally I think it's well worth the $3.99, but then again, I've started supporting all the devs of the apps I really like. It was stated on facebook, by him, that he offers an extended refund period for those people unhappy with his app. How much longer? No idea. But it is guaranteed that you can try this app for 24 hours and if you don't like it you can always get a refund from the market.
have two Sprint phones. My primary phone is the Note 2 with my main phone number being my Google Voice number. The second phone is an S3 that is also set up with Google voice and pointing to my main phone number. Most features are working but I have an interesting problem that just started when I added the S3. Specifically, when I have both phones on sometimes the phone rings first on the S3 which may then answer the call and send the message to the Sprint Voice message app and not to Google voice. This is problematic since I often keep both phones on. Any ideas?
My second issue is when I reject a call by swiping the screen to reject the calls goes go the sprint voice message and not the Google.
Other than these issues everything else works. Calls go to both phones okay and calls out of both phones work okay and the caller I'd shows my Google voice number.

sprint - for reasons I don't understand - seems to have problems with "full google integration". Whatever that means.
as far as I can tell AT&T and Verizon have no issues.
I always install the Google Voice app on all my phones and make sure that all calls go through my GV number (because that's how I wish to use it).
I also make sure to update google voice app on Every phone it's on or your calls will get redirected. In other words GV has to be up to date on all phones for it to work properly
yes, google voice can be complicated, but I have found it quite convenient

Yea, it took me a few days to get it setup right the first time...and TBH, if I had to do it over again, I'd have to scratch my head for a few moments to remember what all I had to do. If you follow the setup page that Google posts on the GV page you should be fine....trying to set it up without reading any instructions will cause headaches.
But man has it saved my tail a few times. Last was only a few days ago, between car being worked on and not having wheels and my phone soft brick...only reason I got my phone back was thx to Google Voice and calling via computer.
Just sign into your Google voice account on a computer and go to settings (the little gear in the right corner). Right there on the first page of settings it should give you the option to disable Google voice on your sprint phone just hit that and your sprint number will ring separately from your Google voice number. Then you can give certain people your real number and others your Google voice one =D

I'm used to the iOS voice app that has an embedded dialer. Is there an analog in Android? Even though I have GV set to ask whether to use GV or my cell number to dial, it seems the only way to dial is to choose a contact from GV app. Using the native dialer always dials from my cell #.
Is there a hidden feature or alternate app for dialing?
You don't need Google voice that's a completely different service. Use google now its much better and it will search anything from any screen by saying "OK google" once you set it up. I'll attach some screen shots for you.

Thanks, but that's actually not the issue - I'm trying to use Google Voice to that it sends my office phone number as callerID when I call clients from the road. Unfortunately, Google's brilliant (not!) use of "Voice" for the name of a service makes searching impossible to find help on the app. (Google Voice Dialing, as in Dialing with the Google Voice cloud app)
I'm actually using google voice for a second phone line I use with clients. It rings on my desktop and forwards to my cell. I would like to be able to dial out from my G3 using Google Voice so that the callerID that gets sent is my office number, not my cell number. As I said, if I select a contact from the GoogleVoice app, it asks whether to dial with the GVoice app (which goes through a telephone gateway with the Office CallerID), or to dial with the native phone app, which would send my cell phone CallerID.

Thanks - I'll give it a try; that's a VoIP solution though, right? I was hoping for an ability to direct dial (from the gv app). I'm still discovering some of the weird things that work better under iOS than android, and am kind of surprised when it's the native Google stuff that is "behind".
Yehp, it's done wonders as my office phone, you could at the least have it request permission when dialing to which number you'd like to use, just a click away, about the same or less amount of clicks you'd use compared to going into gv, selecting a contact, and dialing. With groov normal contacts, select or dial, await popup for which dialer you wish to use, and bam!
If you go into the Google Voice app on your G3 and then go into the Settings for the Google Voice app, you should see an option entitled "Making calls". In that section you have 4 choices to select from for how you want Google Voice to behave when you make a call from your phone using the native phone app:
1) Use Google Voice to make all calls
2) Do not use Google Voice to make any calls
3) Only use Google Voice for international calls
4) Ask every time I make a call
It sounds like you'd prolly want to go with option 4. That way when you go into the Phone app on your G3 and dial a number to place an outgoing call, Google Voice will pop up and ask you if you want the outgoing call to be placed with either your Google Voice number or your "real" phone number that you got from your carrier. This way you have the choice presented to you for every outgoing call you make from your G3.
I've used Google Voice for years now and this is how it's always worked. I use option 1 for my own needs on my cell phone because I just give everyone my Google Voice number and never give out my "real" cell number except to a few choice friends and relatives, so I always want my outgoing calls to show my Google Voice number to the person I'm calling.
Hope that helps you out.
That works too ^^^^^^^^
The thing is I started using groove when google voice would not allow me to make any calls using the app its self ....
*edit*
I forgot before I said that, yes you can make calls with gvoice, but your caller id will be some other number.
GrooVe IP will allow you to make a call whether on wifi or data (note the full ver is the one that allows the data call) Google's a thing..... and it will also show your gvoice number as the number you are calling from, as well as you can recieve calls to your device instead of just acquiring a voicemail to call back from....
[SOLVED]
Okay, so something that was installed, or uninstalled, as I was fiddling with the phone caused GVoice to lose its hook into the calling processes. Uninstalling GVoice and then reinstalling (from the Play store) re-attached it and now it seems to be working correctly. Thanks for everyone's suggestions!

I use option 1 for my own needs on my cell phone because I just give everyone my Google Voice number and never give out my "real" cell number except to a few choice friends and relatives, so I always want my outgoing calls to show my Google Voice number to the person I'm calling.
Hope that helps you out.

Just a clarification for future searchers - yes, this is supposed to be how it works but somehow my phone stopped doing this. No matter what the setting was, dialing from the phone app dialed with the cell number, and choosing a received message or missed/placed call from the Voice app would dial using the Google Voice interchange. It was weird and, apparently, very unusual behavior.
