[Q] Questions before I buy: Google Voice, AVRCP - Sony Xperia ZL

I like the idea of this phone, and am interested in buying one. I'm hoping those who have them can help me with these two questions:
1. For those who use google voice: Does the outgoing call display the correct number, or does it display the google voice gateway number, like the Galaxy S3 or Galaxy Note II?
2. Does AVRCP work? Can you see the title of the song and so on (AVRCP 1.3)?
Thanks!

1. Google Voice Controlls what the Outgoing call displays and what number and not the phone, It will display what you have it set too.. That does not depend on the phone.
2. Have not tried it but it should.

[Q]Google visual voicemail played right from missed call list!!!!

I was watching the original introduction of the samsung galaxy nexus video earlier and i seen where the nexus has the option to access google visual voicemail right from the missed call log. Basically if you have google voice set up and someone calls then leaves a voicemail... that voicemail is playable directly from the call log. Anyone knows how to set that up?

I believe it requires use of a new API in ICS, which the current google voice does not make use of. Someone correct me, if I'm wrong.
I would certainly love to see this working on mine.
found a really useful post regarding this through googling it. not sure if its true but it does sound viable

Google Voice Won't Make Calls

I just signed up for Google Voice and I'm a little confused as to how it works. Texting works just fine and sends from my Google number and if I call my Google number it forwards to my phone fine too.
My question is about outgoing calls. I set it to ask me every time and then to only use Google Voice for calls but no matter what I do, when I go to make a call using the regular dialer like it says, it just uses my regular Verizon number. Is it possible to use my Google Voice number for outgoing calls and does this not use my Verizon minutes?
Yes its definitely possible when the settings in GV are correct (sounds like they are). Verizon ppl should chime in here, but I think you have to set up some call forwarding settings in order to get it to work properly with the VZW network.
It works perfect on my GSM model (and T-Mobile), but I haven't heard any issues about it not working on those.
I found this related thread on a different forum. I'm looking for a similar answer but for my droid bionic.

I make calls from my Google Voice all the time. I did not really do anything to set it up besides install the app on my phone. Of course I went through all the setup online, but I don't think that would matter. When I had my Nexus One some custom ROM's would require you to enable some kind of 3rd party dialing, but I have not seen that with my Galaxy Nexus. I used this link to setup call forwarding so I could us Voice for my voice mail. http://support.verizonwireless.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=17268

s3 and note 2 google voice issue

I 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.

Only way to make sure to resolve this is tie your voice account to only one phone. As for the voicemails going to your sprint voice message app, check your settings and make sure the voicemails setting is made up to be shown in the call log. that might correct the issue.

[Q] Nexus 7 soft phone usage model

Search the forums and did not find anything so here goes.
I wish to use the Nexus 7(2013) LTE as a phone using the sip client in the native dialer or possibly csipsimple.
I understand that will be necessary to make some changes to the OS to expose the native dialer.
1 Does anybody know if the Nexus 7/native sip client can do echo cancellation?
2. Does the 3.5 audio jack have trrs(tip ring ring sleave)?
3 Does csipsimple install on the stock Nexus 7 rom?
3.1. Assuming yes for question 3, can I place a call to a phone number from the contacts app?
3.2. Assuming yes for question 3, can I place a call to a contact's phone number from the google equivalent of siri eg: "call joe smith"?
3.3. Assuming yes for question 3, can I place a call to a contact's phone number using my bluetooth headset eg click the button on the headset and then when prompted say "call joe smith"?
Native SIP:

Different bluetooth voice?

When I was on my Galaxy Nexus, I used the Botifier app to read me Whatsapp and text messages through my car's bluetooth. When I switched to the ZenFone 2, I noticed the voice was different. It's much harder to hear, so I was wondering if I could change it to the voice I had before?
