When I was using stock ICS from AT&T with my S3 the call log history on google voice would show the GV connect phone numbers in my call history instead of the phone numbers that I was calling. Can anyone with stock Jelly Bean AT&T tell me if this is still the case with AT&T JB ? This is a deal breaker for me as being able to see actual real phone numbers in the call history is a pretty basic function of the phone.
I'm on stock JB AT&T and am still seeing the GV relay numbers in the Call Log, no change from ICS.
There's a setting the JB version of Google Voice to show the Voicemail Display could that be off?
I'm looking for the apparantly missing Call settings page for forwarding the calls to GV for transcription......
Stan more than likely it will fail to forward to GV and you have to set the number manually. Also for voicemail service mine says "My Carrier" but it uses GV. No idea why, but GV works if you put it in manually.

I must have had a brain fart and forgot that Call Settings moved from the logical Network Settings menu to the sort of forgettable Dialer Settings menu in ics/jb. I really think that it should be in both.
I upgraded using the root injected version from MrRobinson and Odin, that keeps my apps and settings so that I didn't have to reconfigure Google Voice.

This is so disappointing. Do you folks think Samsung might fix their buggy ROM on Google Voice call log soon?
If not, what's the best option? I suppose just to go CM10 ? (assuming other stock ROM derivatives might also have this problem?)
If I go CM10 by following the steps listed in the CM GS3 wiki, it will be easy to unroot and relock in case warranty is needed, right? (the wiki had huge warning fonts regarding voiding warranty).
Really hope to know what route you guys take. Google Voice is my only number known to others, and I have to call using that, and the current call log is useless, and this is 2012 with a flagship android phone ....
Thanks.

You just have to configure it manually, just like the original rom. Put your Google number into the forward number settings. Even though it will say that My Carrier is the answering service, select Google at least once and Google WILL BE the answer services, and you will get messages transcription in the Google voice app. If you set Google voice to do all calls or ask you how you want to call it will bring up a dialogue box. I don't use the incoming call keypad stuff, but I assume that they would work on a incoming Google call.

GV voicemail actually worked for me, as I initially set it up by using the code provided by GV website. My concern is with the called numbers shown in the call log. They are relay numbers not my contact numbers ..... Never had this with my old Nexus One.. And I see many complaints if you search for "google voice call log numbers, galaxy s3 or galaxy note II". Some claim CM10 fixes this, but would like to get some insight into this before I void the warranty for this .... Why can't Samsung get things right out straight

I went back to CM10. AT&T Jelly Bean was awful. I couldn't get over the hideous status bar at the top with Green color and & AT&T spam. Also dialer is complete garbage if you want to use Google Voice. Everything is working for me on CM10 except I have no bass on blue tooth.

while the phone in the phone's call list IS a routing number, the calls' correct number are recorded in the GV widget's PLACED list. You have to use the new "Show All Labels" to get there.

Could you point me to the particular CM10 version you use with ATT GS3? Did you follow the CM wiki direction ? Also, I suppose the route back to stock/lock/unroot is easy in case we need warranty, right?
I don't care ICS/JB... as long as there are no known issues/lags/fcs, and GV voice mail and call log display work as they should (as with N1 in 2010 or even earlier...) --- I can't believe we have to work so hard to get that ...
Thanks!
I had to remove voicemail from my phone in the Voice settings page. Then I had to add GV voicemail back to my phone with the forwarding code via GV. Now I am working, though it seems to take a lot of rings to kick to voicemail. Like 10 or so.

Some users (on Verizon?) are seeing it work correctly. This leads me to believe that some builds of 4.1.1 for the S3 may have this functioning correctly.
Some questions:
Does anyone know of any ROMs for the S3 that have the correct behavior with Google voice that work on ATT?
Can we take the dialer from the Verizon S3 and use it on an ATT S3?
Any other suggestions for resolution?

***** FIXED ***** CALLED AT&T TO RESET VOICEMAIL ***** PLEASE REMOVE THREAD *****
I am using a stock GSM GNex, unrooted, and I noticed, when I receive calls, the caller does not go to voicemail and when I attempt to check voicemail, I am told that I do not have a voicemail box. This is a new problem, because before, I had voicemail and I set it up using AT&T. When I long press the number "1" on the dial pad I get a recording that says to enter the phone number of the party you are trying to reach. I enter my phone number and it says that the number is not listed. I can receive and make calls to anyone no problem, but voicemail all of a sudden stopped working. I went into the phone settings and checked the phone number listed as my voicemail number, it is not the same as my regular phone number, so I changed it to my number and I was getting a busy signal when I tried to check my voicemail after that. Any ideas??? I don't think calling AT&T will do me any good as they think I am using a Galaxy S2 Skyrocket. Please help, I need to get voicemails if I don't get to the phone in time!!
Thanks
I'm not sure how to fix your problem but, have you tried google voice as your voicemail client? Maybe you can use that instead.
To be honest I want to fix the issue and I don't want to use Google Voice. When I did a search before posting this I read a lot of people were using that service, but I want to get the real problem fixed. Thanks though.
Does anyone think the problem could be because I have a Galaxy S2 Skyrocket as my main phone on my plan, and that phone uses visual voicemail? And somehow now the phone won't activate voicemail because of that? When I dial my number and call myself, I get a busy tone.
1) Your VM number is either incorrectly programmed into the phone, or whoever set up your account didn't provision you with the VM feature. Call your carrier, they can verify with you whether your phone is correct or it's their system. No one on XDA can't help you with a shortcut.
2) Get Google Voice. Carrier VM systems are utter crap by comparison. That is the "real" solution to your "real problem".
The voicemail number is the same as it was when I set it up the first time. BTW, using Google Voice is not the "real" solution to my "real problem". If you don't know the answer to the question or you think no one else here will, you don't have to emphasize your love of Google Voice, I just don't want to use it so I am trying to figure out how to fix it. Thank you.
Oh, and maybe you should change your user name if you hate AT&T so much.

Yes this is an issue with ATT stock rom. Annoying but workaround is to use Google Voice to check outgoing call log
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747
Just upgraded to JB last night on ATT, using GV 0.4.2.66. Phone has never been rooted, stock ATT always. Problem still exists - place a call and the log shows the relay number, not the actual dialed number. Weirdly, back in August I think, after a bout of uninstalling/reinstalling GV, it worked perfectly for a while. Then some unnoticed update broke it and it started storing relay numbers in log again, and hasn't worked since.
As I understand from the MANY other threads out there on this issue, the problem lies with Samsung and their dialer not talking to GV properly. No-one has yet to have any help from Samsung, but the hope was JB would fix it.
Nope. I use GV all the time, so this is practically a deal-breaker for me
What are the options here ? Is it possible to use the stock JB dialer instead of the Samsung Touchwiz one ? I'll root and put in a different ROM if I have to ...
Thanks -
Google Voice stores relay number in call log, not called number
Is anyone out there using google voice with the S3 (on ATT) ? Have you gotten it to store the actual number you called rather than the damn GV relay number ? This is one of the most popular phones out there, and there are a metric ton of people using GV - surely someone has it working cleanly ?
It's frustrating. No workee for me either. Can't redial.
Actually, I wish Google supported GV more. No APIs, so many things can't be done due to using GV messaging.

FYI...Jumpsquares is the developer of the app, it appears. He has not responded back here to my response above, so I'm assuming he is not paying any attention to this thread. Just dropped in long enough to advertise.
That being said I am happy with my stock/rooted Rom, and decided it would be easier to spend the $2 on his app than installing a whole new different ROM and reconfiguring everything. But after install, it needs email and password; it would not accept it and move on.
I unstalled for refund. Sent him an email to see what hes replies with. Will post back here if there is any progress.
Has anyone noticed that Google Voice no longer integrates into the stock Samsung dialer app? Basically the problem is, if I use Google Voice for an outgoing call, the number that shows up in the call log is the Google Voice proxy phone center, not the actual number I'm dialing. It also shows the proxy phone center number on the screen while the call is ongoing. On the original Note (which now runs ICS), the stock Samsung dialer seems to work as you would expect and only shows the number of the person you are actually calling.
I'm hoping there is a fix for this somewhere. I'm not sure if similar threads for the Galaxy S III that I've seen are applicable to the Note II since it is running Jellybean, and it seems like Samsung has updated the dialer app (it looks different from the ICS dialer on the original Note)
Yep, I saw that yesterday
Yes, gv on this device is def wonky but as long as it works I'm not gonna complain.
Then again I'm seeing gv is acting up on other devices as well. Is google slowly dropping support? Hasn't been updated since beginning of year I think.

Yeah I noticed it too. Here's how I'm dealing with it:
Assuming you set things correctly in the Google Voice app...
Calls - I don't call many people from my contacts anyway so every time that proxy number shows, I save that to the contact. I learned that each contact receives a specific number, so it's been working.
Texts - I downloaded an app called GV Integration. It costs $5. This app makes sure that all your texts use you google voice number going out.
Note: You may not need the integration app if you save all the proxy numbers in your contacts but I found the integration app before saving the numbers. The only annoying thing now is receiving the texts with the person's name also in the message. I hope all this gets fixed too though. This is one this Sprint has the upper hand on for every phone.
this is the same behavior on my S3 as well. not sure it's a GV thing though, cuz on my HOXL, GV stores the contact number in the log and not the bridge number.
I just refer to GV's own logs instead of the phone-dialer log. I do all texting from GV itself, and I only give out my GV number (not the native cell number) for others to text me. That way, all the texting is handled in GV, and comes for free without needing a texting plan from my carrier.
My S3 on Verizon did this initially, then started working correctly, the call log would show the number I called instead of the GV proxy number.
My AT&T Note 2 is showing the GV proxy number, which I find annoying and wrong.
Google/Samsung/AT&T: I would like my call log to show the phone number of outgoing calls when I dial with GV. Thanks
Bump
has anyone found a fix for this? This really bugs me..
same here. is google dropping GV?
This isn't an issue on the Nexus phones or the HOX. It has to have something to with the Touchwiz dialer.

Is it working for anyone using Cleanrom? I'm on version 3.5 and am not seeing it. :|
Hello all,
Does anybody know any current ROM that would solve the problem of the number dialed not being shown properly in the call logs when using google voice? For example, if I can my buddy: 716-466-6666 - it should show that number instead of a Google voice's access number.
Any current ROM has this feature for the NOTE 2 would make me so happy.
Or can someone recommend a good replacement dialer app that handles the Google Voice call log properly?

disclaimer: I'm a prospective Note2 owner.
With that, I use GV as my main number and use this app:
GV Callback
for all of my outgoing calls. Hopefully it's not a Note 2 issue, cuz that would kill me. But definitely give it a try if you haven't already. I don't like how GV natively handles calls, so I set it to *never* within the Google Voice app.
Feel free to check out the themed version in my sig too.
/end shameless plug.
Let me know if GV Callback works for you, as I'm curious to know. I think both were pulled off of the play store for some reason, hence the amazon link. (there's a free version too).
No, call back does not solve the problem... we can call out just fine, it's the display of the called number not showing... but instead it's a google access number....

Really? Wait, so dialing out using gv callback shows the routing number on the call logs, for sure? I didn't think it used a Google number to place the calls.
There's another app called gv integration. I forget right now if it deals with calls or just SMS. Will check tomor.

For users who've sold their soul to Google by porting to GV (I'm one of them), this "bug" is really debilitating. As the OP stated, it has to do with the dialer's outgoing call log. Every single call made (through GV) logs as the proxy number dialed to connect to Google's phone system.
When I was still on my Amaze (ICS Energyrom), the stock dialer would show the contact's number as the call was initiated, and momentarily a small white pop-up box would show the GV proxy being called. That pop-up would last for about 3 seconds. The stock dialer call log, however, would show the contact's actual number.
On the SGN2, the dialer's main screen shows the random proxy number as the call is made (and for the duration of the call). Further, the stock TouchWiz dialer log will also show the proxy number. There is no way to know who you actually called by looking at the log.
The (frustratingly inefficient) workaround is to open the GV app, click on "show all labels" and selecting "placed". There, the GV call log shows the actual contact's number called.
Obviously TouchWiz does not play nicely (or at all) with GV. It is unable to differentiate between the proxy number and the actual terminating (contact) number dialed. Very frustrating.
According to my brother, who's had the SGSIII since it came out, this has been a problem since day one with TouchWiz. His fix was to go with CM10. Unfortunately, that's not an option for us (yet), and I don't know if s-pen would be supported. ;(
Oh, wow, I hadn't noticed this yet. It's like a throwback to a couple of years ago, I haven't had to worry about this in a long time.
It's interesting because on my Verizon galaxy S3, running the latest leaked jellybean ROM, but otherwise stock, the dialer does not behave the same way as this T-Mobile galaxy note 2 does. On the galaxy S3, the number displayed is the number of the contact not the Google voice routing number. I wonder what is different about the note 2, since they're both TouchWiz and jellybean.
Anyways, it's a bit tedious to set up originally, but I worked around this on older phones by adding the Google routing number as an alternate phone number for each of my contacts as I used them. That way at least the proper name and contact picture shows up in the call log even if the correct number does not.
I tried using a third-party dialer just now, and as most of you probably know, it does not record the call number properly. Bummer!

I've tried several "dialers", but they all get fed the same garbage from TW. As for the call back apps, I didn't specifically try the one you mentioned, but did try two others. Unless I'm missing something, they intercept the outgoing call, call your GV number (where you can hear the GV girl say, "Press 2 to make a call to a new number...") and then the app uses DTMF tones to "dial" the intended contact. I've tried that, and it does work - sort of...
The one I tried (can't recall the name) took about 20 seconds to complete the process (too slow in my book). And while the call log showed a call to MYSELF during the call, once I hung up, the app somehow edited the call log to reflect the outgoing call being made to the intended contact. That alone tells me some app developer is two steps ahead of Samsung (and possibly Google).
In any case, having used GV on HTC's for the last three years - flawlessly without any hoop-jumping or other heroic efforts - I've become spoiled to where anything less than a direct call (i.e. no call back or audible multi-dials) is a failure for me.
Coming from Galaxy NOTE 1 I didn't have any problem with google voice but yea i am having the same problem of not showing the number you are calling in call log... just today i dialed a number which was not saved in my contacts so i wanted to redial the same number again in my call log the number is not there to redial so i had look at the paper and dial it in keypad and it sucks.
I emailed one of the 3rd party developers (Xinlu), but kinda doubt I'll hear back. I know he figured this out before, and know this can be solved with one of the call back apps. Wouldn't count on Samsung or Google to fix anything like this, obviously.

OK.
I got my note, and finally just got to test it. I wish you guys tried the app I recommended, because it works fine. Call logs show up correctly for outgoing calls.
Free Version Google Voice Callback
Donate Version - Google Voice Callback
The dev is no longer active.. and has never answered my emails ;P
But, on the other hand, he's saved me literally hundreds of dollars over the years.

We don't want to have to install a third-party app that makes you take the extra step of being called back just to get an accurate call log. Your solution may work for you, but it's not the solution for everybody. What we really like is to just see Samsung make Google voice work with their dialer log on the note2 the same way it does on the jellybean version of the galaxy S3, and every other modern mobile phone that Samsung or HTC make. Thanks for the tip but I'll just put up with this outgoing call log bug rather than having a callback option.
I'm not even sure that I'll bother cluttering up my contacts with the routing number as an alternate number for them which was the prior fixed of this on older phones. I just don't look at my outgoing call log all that often. Your mileage may vary. Thanks again

I'd like to see a good replacement dialer app. The Samsung dialer is so ugly. Perhaps an AOSP stock dialer?

Trust me, I would love that as well.. I just don't see it happening.
I've literally written a dozen emails over the years reaching out to Samsung and Google (lol), including Vincent Pacquet.
I used to save the routing number in all of my contacts, and I *still* find myself cleaning up stray numbers. Keep in mind, the routing numbers change every once in a while. So one day (this has happened to me sev times), some or all of them won't work.
Whatev works for you though I hope a solution is on the way.

There are several 3rd party dialers on the market. Some are better than others, but give it a search. I used to use RocketDialer for a minute.

I mentioned this in an earlier post, but it bears repeating and might lead us to a solution on our own.
I've had a Verizon Galaxy S3 for 5-6 months, using both stock ICS and now a leaked "stock" (debloated) JB ROM. I can't say with certainty that on ICS the call log behaved the way we want it to, but I'm pretty sure it did. I can, however, say with absolute certainty, that on the "stock" JB ROM I'm using right now, it works perfectly. I just dialed two different numbers and they displayed properly, no GV routing number.
So, Samsung, ToucWiz, Google Voice and Jelly Bean for all calls on two different devices; does't make sense that it works on one and not the other.
I tried copying the dialer app over from the S3 to the Note2, and it worked as a dialer, but it didn't address the call log issue, which on the Note 2 was still borked. I'm willing to move over other apps in an effort to see what's holding us back; any suggestions? There's a listing in Titanium Backup on both phones for "Call Log", could it be that simple?
I had a SGSIII before my Note II and on AT&T anyway, the call logs showed the routing number on both ICS and leaked GB, though all the GB builds I tried were from differant carriers. I'm getting the OFFICIAL JB update that was released last night installed, and will report back if it was fixed in that update. Just as a thought, All of the SGSIII JB builds were built after the Note II, maybe in our next update this will be fixed.

I just tried on the official AT&T JB on their SGSIII, and still shows the GV routing number, I think the only time I have seen the logs correct is in AOSP roms.
Yup. Google voice logs work when I had cm10 on my Galaxy s3. Stock JB is a no go.

Hi gnex users, I installed CM11 M12 yesterday on my Galaxy Nexus to try to give the old phone a bit more life. So far I like it, but just one thing doesn't seem to be working for me. I have used my phone for years with two numbers -- my carrier number and my Google Voice number. I use one for work and one for personal stuff. In the stock Google Android 4.3, I was always presented with the option when calling to call using Google Voice, or call using my carrier number. I would choose one or the other depending on whether it was a work call or a personal call. With CM11, I'm not getting this option -- calls are all made using the carrier number (which I use as my personal number). Have I missed a setting here?
Thanks for any help you can provide.
oops, never mind

Looks like all I had to do was launch Google Voice for the first time. When I did that, it took me through some configuration and I was able to choose to have the dialer ask me every time.
Maybe this info will be helpful to someone else.
