How to configure Pidgin to work with Google Talk at ibn Mas
Hi Snrb,
Just tried Jitsi with both port 5222 and 80. It works for both. But, it can not connect to 443 as well. I was wondering whether port 80 could be used for help to tunnel all signaling and voice traffic. If it's possible, then, we can achieve same thing as port 443 to go around firewall with one minus of not having encryption.
Thanks

First of all, I love this app. It's terrific for those of us with limited voice calling.
Just wondering if there are any plans (or if it's possible) to add an option to enable our cell phone number to be shown as incoming call number on recipients' Caller ID instead of only being able to show our Google Voice number? I have friends who are getting confused by the number they're seeing, not knowing I have Google Voice (or even knowing what Google Voice is) and I really don't need anyone to know my calls are coming from anywhere but my home phone number (which I've had for 20 years and is now ported to my cell phone).
Thanks for all the great work.
I have Groove IP on the LG Optimus V with Virgin Mobile. When I use the Wifi at home it works great but when I am out and about and use the 3g I have had a few persons say that there is static and they couldn't hear me or that they tried to call me and it wouldn't pick up. Has anyone else had these problems? I am assuming it is due to the strength of the 3g connection. Is there a way to access the numerical strength of the connection? I'm wondering about the possibility of determining how strong the 3g is and if it is below a threshold for good call quality to divert the call to my Virgin Mobile phone number. Is this theoretically possible?
Also, I'm probably a couple versions out of date on the Groove IP but don't think this would make a difference.
Version 1.2.9:
- Shrink tab sizes for smaller screens
- Work around for buttons not working on Galaxy S WiFi 5.0
- Add favorites tab
- Add audio menu to in-call screen
Hi,
Just purchased your app. Great work.
I can make calls OK, but nothing happens when I receive a call, it goes to my cell phone.
I read in here to do settings in Google voice to transfer to chat but I can not see an option for that in GV. Pls help.
Hi,
Take a look here Frequently Asked Questions | Groove IP Unlimited calls for free to any phone in the US or Canada | SNRB Labs If that doesn't help you'll have to contact the Google Voice support and tell them that you don't have a checkbox to forward calls to Google Chat.
ok got it to work now, but sound on other end is crackling and very low. Any suggestions?
Port 80 is generally for http traffic. The app is a xmpp client. In addition only signalling traffic is sent via tcp. Voice traffic is UDP and sent over a negotiated port. GrooVe IP uses UDP ports 19003 & 19004. We can likely make those ports configurable.
Just wanted to let the developer know that the DTMF seems to work for me when I'm using my WIFI connection, but not when using 3G (Verizon). I tried muting without any difference in result. DTMF works fine when using my normal 3G calling. Thanks
Depends on the type of device and how you're connecting (wifi or mobile data). We have some tips in our faq that I linked above. Generally Keep Screen Alive or Audio Processing are the first steps.
Thanks.Audio processing is set. I am using wifi on an Acer Iconia A500 tablet, but incoming voice calls are very bad, crackling and low (@ Max volume, which does not seem to matter anyway)
Although I downloaded latest version , I can not see the in call audio.
Thanks for any help...
obv by seemless I mean that to the outside world i have only the single mobile number for voice and sms. snrb mentioned a while back that they're working on sms integration - hopefully that means that sms can be forwarded from my mobile carrier through google to grooveIP when i'm in wifi mode...?
Hi snrb
V. 1.2.9
Virgin Mobile.
Wifi signal strength around -90 dBm
During In call - Is there a way to select GrooveIp or mobile network?
Thx

I've been using the app for a few weeks, and it's generally great. I have 2 questions however, which I suspect will actually be requests:
-Is there a way to show the dial pad automatically (by default) every time a call is connected? This is especially helpful when you're pressing 1 or 2 to answer or send to voice mail.
-Is there a way to only turn off the ringer sound as quickly as possible, without "ignoring" the incoming call, like the native dialer (LG Optimus V) does when pressing any of the volume keys? If I ignore, then the call just comes back through the native phone app, and if I ignore there, the voice mail goes to Virgin mobile's, not GV. This is the main reason I wanted to use the "press 1 or 2" option.
