HTC One M8 Dual SIM SIP client (VOIP) missing - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello! The dual SIM version of the M8 does not have the possiblity to set up a SIP account with the native client of Android 4.4 (in contrast to the single SIM version). Thus I have installed the "SIP Switch Widget" from Google play store. This allows me to set up the SIP account and choose the method of dialing (asking before each call if I would like the mobile account or VOIP). Nevertheless if I choose IP-call the call is made through the mobile network. I guess that the phone app has been modified by HTC. The behaviour of incoming VOIP calls is as follows: The phone rings but I am unable to answer the call. Has anyone a fix for it or would develop a solution that the native Android client works? I would certainly pay for it because the native client drains less battery than 3rd party apps. Thanks a lot!

Hi markzh,
I am having the exact same issue. Just bought the M8 Dual Sim version and was quite disappointed not being able to use the native VoiP client on the phone.
Did you make any progress solving this issue?
Thanks,
Tito

Does NetDial work and/or best sip dialer w/contacts?

NetDial has a great contact interface but I am getting 408 timeout errors. The Free GV dialer does not appear to be free since it rings up cell minutes, but I can not be sure since Sprint does not seem to want to show me the numbers that I have called.
Ok, I just tried linphone and CsipSimple. Linphone seems to have good contacts I/F but may have had some noise. I could not get the proxy to work and it could only handle one sip provider.
CsipSimple could handle multiple sip providers but did not seem to have a good contact I?F, but did know the contact after the fact. Csip also always wanted to default to one provider and seems to need a manual delete/uninstall to remove an unwanted provider.
Any additional notes, suggestions or clues would be helpful

Anyone using inbuilt SIP calling on WM6.5 ?

Hi all,
I am trying to get SIP Internet Calling working on my WM6.5 (Touch Pro2). I got to the point where it seemed to want to use my VoIP provider (Rynga - a Betamax Company) but then I just got a "Bing" sound and it then tried to call regularly via Vodafone.
So I don't know if I have something wrong in ipdialplan.xml or if there is some other issue. I read elsewhere that maybe I should not specify a STUN server. I only plan to use the SIP over wi-fi.
I assume the files I need are ipdialplan.xml, dnsapi.dll, voipphonecanvas.dll and rtcdll.dll and then get my sip settings into the \Windows\System\VoIP directory.
Can anyone suggest an alternative client to at least prove my sip details and handshaking my account with my provider ?

UPDATE: I downloaded and setup PortGo and got connected straight away so that verified that my SIP settings and Account Details were correct. I then followed a thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5963857&postcount=1647 which has a CAB to create the IPDialPlan.xml file. This is the real key part and if it's wrong, you're going nowhere. So once done (make sure to set the properties of ipdialplan.xml to read/write using Total Commander or similar)
So I now have VoIP using the HTC Dialer. However, using Sense on my phone, it's not too easy to turn off internet dialing if I just want to use GSM and so, I think i'll just stick with using PortGo when I want to use VoIP. With PortGo, it will use all your standard phone contacts so there's no great hassle is using this separate dialer.
I've assigned PortGo to the Send Key(Hold) so that gives me easy access to either dialer.
Did anyone ever manage to get the sound out via the regular ear speaker rather than via the rear speakerphone ?

So is it working properly and are you able to make phone calls using VOIP?
Yes, I finally got it working but it is too much hassle because every time I have wi-fi on, it wants to use ny VoIP account. My phone is a work one which I can use for limited personal use but I would only plan on using VoIP for personal calls. So it's far easier to use a separate app where I can decide when exactly I want to use the VoIP method. The PortGo application uses my same contacts as the standard HTC Dialer uses so I can just dial numbers exactly as is (without maybe using a code to place calls over VoIP instead of them using GSM or whatever.

[Q] Skype as default dialer

Hi,
I have an evo with DeckRom on it (gingerbread). I'm trying to get skype to be my default dialer, or even better to have it prompt me for what I'd like to use as a dialer (phone or skype).
I can't for the life of me figure this out. Phone doesn't show up under settings-applications-manage-all. I've cleared defaults from gocontacts.
I've tried uninstalling skype, then rebooting the phone and redownloading the app.
Still nothing.
Other thing I might like is the ability to choose google voice to make outgoing calls if that is available.
Thanks in advance.
Bump for this. I'm having the exact same issue on my thunderbolt running stock/rooted debloat. Any help would be great as I'm retiring the thunderbolt and basically turning it intoca glorified pda/voip phone.
Google voice can be set as a default dialer/SMS/voicemail app but Skype I don't believe will set as a default however on decks gb rom in settings under calls you can set up a SIP account for voip calling with no added apps it will use the default dialer to call over ip
When I first installed skype, android gave me the option to choose how to complete the call. I no longer receive that option.

My goal is to either:
1. have the option of using skype, google voice or T mobile when initiating a call from my contacts list
or
2. be able to access and successfully choose a contact from my list when I'm on skype
At some point (I don't know why) my phone stopped giving the choice of using Skype, google voice or TMobile for an outgoing call. I would love to get that back since Skype doesn't allow me to use my phone contact list to make calls. Any ideas on how to achieve my goal?
Please tell me how to have a notification on my email when someone responds to my question.
Thanks

You're in the evo4g forum no one here has tmo as the evo is a cdma phone not gsm
Same problem here since upgrading to latest Android. Did you find a solution yet?
bzzz
Did you manage to find the solution to this?

[Q] Blocking Mode Wont let Any SIP/VOIP calls Through

So I finally got my first Android device and I managed to set up my SIP accounts via SGN2's native SIP client. I can make/receive calls without a problem over WiFi and 3G - I'm happy with my unlimited calls
I'm a big Call/SMS Blocker fan. All my phones has an app installed that blocks ALL unwanted calls/SMS/MMS. So I was happy when I found out the N7100 has a built-in call blocker feature.
It does it's job, ok. BUT, it blocks ALL incoming SIP calls even though I set the settings to custom and added all my contacts with VOIP/SIP numbers to the 'Allowed' list.
The problem somehow lies in the way 'Blocking Mode' filters incoming calls.
All my SIP calls has this pattern [username]@[IP Address] - ex [email protected]
So, even though I already added the SIP numbers with the IP details in my contacts' 'Internet Call' field and the 'Allowed Contacts', the calls are still blocked. It appears only phone numbers aren't filtered out by the Blocking Mode
Is there any solution to this?
Thank you for your time and inputs
My SGN2 N7100 on stock firmware (no plans of rooting for the time being).
I'm guessing you've already verified that what the incoming number looks like matches what you have for their sip address?

Thank you for the reply.
Yes. I tried including all the details in my contact, from the default number to what it looks like when I receive a SIP call.
Normally SIP calls would show in the screen as: SIP[email protected]
The number is still blocked.
Interesting. I'm sorry I have no answers for, and I asked as I do not have any voip set up yet. I was suspecting your voip provider may have sent a base trunk address rather than the originator.
If you find a resolution, please let us know!

that might be your carrier. Who may not allow VOIP calls. e.g Skype does not let KaKaoTalk run voip calls on their 3g network etc etc

I was talking about the built in 'Blocking Mode' in the SGN2.
As stated in my initial post, I have no problems making/receiving calls over WiFi AND 3G.
The issue isn't network related. VOIP calls will go through just fine IF I DISABLE the Blocking Mode feature (i.e. allow all calls)

[Q] How can I make a third-party SIP app act like the native dialer

Here's the issue: I have a N7 2013 LTE which I've unlocked/rooted. I've enabled SMS and installed the Google Dialer. Everything works well; I can send/receive SIP calls via the dialer and I can even answer calls with my Bluetooth headset because the SIP calls received by the Google dialer are perceived as actual phone calls by Android.
This falls apart when I want to use a third-party SIP/VoIP app. I can answer native SIP calls with my Bluetooth headset (a double-tap on the headset for the Jawbone ERA), but can't do so with a third-party app. I'm guessing that's because calls answered by the Google dialer are seen as real phone calls whereas those answered by a third-party app are media events, so the Bluetooth headset isn't notified of an incoming call. This even happens with CSipSimple set to integrate with the native dialer.
CSipSimple is a great app, but it suffers the fate of any app when left in memory too long: it gets kicked out. I can watch the SIP registration status at my SIP provider's website while CSipSimple is running in the background. CSipSimple stays registered for a while, then the status switches to disconnected. If I disable CSipSimple, the native dialer registers with my SIP provider and stays registered.
Can anyone confirm or deny any of this? Is there a way to have a third-party SIP/VoIP app act like the Google dialer? Or am I stuck with the native dialer?
Huh. Currently 117 views and nobody has an answer.
The Google dialer is fine, albeit a bit ugly, but it doesn't do landscape amongst other things. It would be great if I could replace it with CSipSimple or one of the many other SIP apps out there. I know I can use any app I like, but the issues in my first post preclude me from doing that. The native dialer stays registered with my SIP provider at all times. It also works well with my Bluetooth headset, allowing me to answer calls without having to touch my N7.
Anyone?
