using the normal dialer, i think it's only possible with the Airave device from sprint. another option would be using a voip software but i personally dont use any.

After more research I realize that the company BB was on TMOBILE which uses UMA to connect thru wifi to the TMobile network what an awesome option as i used it in mexico to make free calls home! Now the company switched to Sprint Blackberrys I have no way to contact home when I go to korea. I have an EVO and a BB both on sprint and seem F'ed on contact home this suxz! Thanks for the help

Google voice. Fring. Skype.

Here's a solution I found:
1) Switch over EVERYTHING to Google Voice. Have people only call/text you via GV.
2) Install Fring
3) Get Sipgate One. SO has unlimited free inbound calling (and if you know GV, you know what that means...)
4) Setup your Google Voice to call both your cell number, and your Sipgate One number.
5) In Fring, add your Sipgate account as your SIP account. Set proxy as sipgate.com and get your SIP username and password from your Sipgate settings.
6) In Sipgate's settings, clear out all of the forwarding rules, so that no matter what, Google Voice will manage your voicemail.
7) Turn off your cell connection by activating Airplane Mode.
8) Turn on WiFi.
9) Start calls via a computer's browser, at voice.google.com.

FREE voice calls on sprint(CDMA) SGT UPDATE: added VID and Refs :D

UPDATE:
Here are some crap videos that show this working using both csip and sipdroid thru bt
BT CALLS
CALL & RECEIVE
SGT Call & Receive
this is directed at the poor souls that had to get cdma sprint tab and wanted phone function...i got phone working on viewsonic gtab easily with no radio,however gtab sucks compared to SGT imho. so i t n e'd much until i found a proper method of execution for cdma sprint SGT.
YOU WILL NEED THE FOLLOWING:
google voice number(free)
ipkall number(free)
gv apk(free)
sipdroid-also sets up pbx for you(free)
FYI
(in order to setup your free ipkall it will ask for a #;this is not a standard #. it will vary depending on service...eg. magnus-200.use sipdroid to autmagically set up for you then just transplant the info properly)
1.)google voice+number and setup account
2.)grab free number from ipkall and reg it with gv
3.)grab sipdroid and let it setup a new pbx for you
4.)set this devce to ring thru gv
5.)open sipdroid app and make dial call...
test on wifi and data
when dialing a number hit enter on kb instead of the #5 for sipdroid dialer, or you will get the "this device cannot make calls error"...i will figure this out and eliminate it, however i dont see it anymore but i need to break thru it.
i have been messing with csip cus i like the dialer alot, however i cant get it to setup right anymore. i can get it to register, but not to call right...but sipdroid works great and i cant complain about free calling from my tab using my gv number
please post finding and results....
thanks

make sure that:
you are dialing with sip app not gv
(i prefer csipsimple dialer)
ipkall number is registered with google voice
that sipdroid setup ur pbxes proper
after sipdroid sets up ur pbx for you try csisimple as well
(make sure to setup as international carrier/pbxes in account setup and same credentials as sipdroid used for setup)
test using your primary line. since i set this up i do not use my evo very much since the tab is better in every way.phone is not as good of course but tab is not meant to be a phone here so i am happy with what i have accomplished for free. also you will have to adjust latency in settings to improve sound quality to your liking.

Sadly, there is no support for the Bluetooth Headset (with mic) profile on the CDMA GalaxyTab. This will work but you will have to use the built-in mic on the GT for your calls until someone either patches the BT stack or builds a custom rom with full BT profiles.
This is the exact reason I can't wait for custom rom development to begin on the CDMA versions.

Care to help me out and get it setup? Once I have an understand of the right way, I could put a guide with pictures to help people.

I've tried this but unfortunately every ipkall phone number i get assigned is apparently already in use in someone elses google voice.
tried call the area codes ipkall provides and repeatedly cancelling and re-creating ipkall accounts in hopes of getting a previously unused number

I am wondering if you could just use a Sipgate number.

I'll try to help with his tomorrow. Magnus walked me though this this afternoon and there were a few hiccups but it's working flawlessly now.

getting the same issue.

There is another way to do this, but it isn't as clean. You need to obtain a Sipgate account or any SIP provider that allows free incoming calls. Once you have that, you register it with your google voice account. Then you will need to configure Sipgate with either sipdroid or csip.
To make outbound calls:
On the tab, log into your google voice account. You will then be presented with a web dialer and can select the sipgate account to have the call sent to
Inbound:
will ring your sipgate account

I found out what I was doing incorrectly. Here is a run down that will hopefully help everyone on a way to do this.
Step 1: Download SIPDroid from the Market Place
Step 2: Obtain a google voice account
Step 3: Launch SIPDroid and instruct it to create a PBXes.com account for you with your google voice account information
Step 4: Go to IPKall
Step 5: Go to the settings of SIPDroid and write down the first account information (should be [email protected])
Step 6: On IPKall, put in the XXXX-200 for the sip # and pbxes.com for the sip proxy
Step 7: Register your IPKall number with Google Voice (if gives an error ask it to Verify the information. It will then dial your SIPDroid software and ask for a 2 digit number. It might take a couple of times before it recognizes it.)
Step 8: You are now ready to make calls and receive calls.
There are a couple other options that remove the need for the IPKall, but it requires having multiple SIP accounts setup. I currently have 3 setup on my Tab.

Is there an advantage of using three sip accounts?

[Q] Best Google Voice setup for VOIP calls

What is the best setup you found for incoming/outgoing Google Voice VOIP calls on a (Sprint) Galaxy Nexus? Interested in apps that work very well over wi-fi only, not over mobile data.
I'm looking for something that has great voice quality and also integrates seamlessly with the native dialer so that when not on wifi it makes phone calls over the cell radio and when on wi-fi it makes VOIP calls using Google Voice.
I see pbxes.org mentioned a lot. Is it worth the trouble given that they store the GV password on their server and then from what I understand they have to re-code from the GV codec to whatever codec the SIP client on the phone negotiates with the pbxes servers - I hope my understanding of how it works is correct.
Other options I've seen mentioned: Groove IP, Spare Phone, Talkatone.
Not sure which approach works best, maybe the experts here can save me some research time.
And as a SIP client, what works well? I tried the native phone SIP client with a SIP VOIP service and it sounded terrible, not sure why the native one doesn't work well.
Thanks for your help.

I use groove IP no problems

Anyone else? What's your great Google Voice setup?

I use GrooveIP as well. But I really want to get my pbxes.org working on my call setting. That is what I am going to work on today.

Thanks, this is interesting but unfortunately it is too cumbersome to use by the person I'm setting up the phone for. I'd like a solution that's fully automated, use 1 dialer only (either native or a different app) that can smartly route calls via GV when on wifi (at home) or cell when not on wifi.

You can setup your PBXes account just like the tutorials (with SIPdroid) and then put the account info into the regular dialer. I think the extra steps to use the stock dialer were in a wiki somewhere or some external webpage (not on this forum).
You only need SIPdroid to create the free extension on PBXes and follow the tutorials to get all setup. Then you can go into the stock dialer and put in accountname-200, password, and then pbxes.org as the domain. You can choose to receive calls on wifi only or while on a data connection with a checkbox. I've heard that the codec used with the stock dialer isn't that great, though. It's one of those things you'd have to tryout for yourself.
One dialer to send and receive calls. It even lets you know if it's a data call or not. Maybe this is something you wanted to look into?

What SIP client pairs well with PBXes? I know the stock dialer SIP is very poor, I tried it with another SIP service and the call quality was mediocre, while their dedicated client worked very well, so at least I know it's not the phone hardware, it's the software.
I also read about potential latency issues with PBXes because they only have 1 server in NY. Is that still the case or the latency issues have been resolved? I guess in general I'm looking for a fairly reliable service though I'm prepared to accept occasional hiccups.

Mr.binglejellsx2 is almost correct. I have been deal with more than 15 apps to get best. create a account by using sipdroid. make sure you have got green dot and place one out going and incoming call via sipdroid. Exit sipdroid from your phone. go to pbxes.org and login under extension under sipdroid 200 (from left) than right, under device option retype your password. (means you are get ride of sipdroid and ready for new sip). in your phone open sipdroid and make sure your got yellow and exit. in your phone call setting, add new account, your username-200 password, server is pbxes.org under option make sure your port is 5060 and not uda must be tcp. hit back and your phone should say receiving call. If not working go to pbxes.org and re type password same extension and under personal data enter your password two times where required and submit start (means, you dont want sipdroid, the second sip and now ready for any new getaway which will be your native sip) this must work. I don't see best call quality anywhere. this is awesome especially for wifi. just like your carrier. I use this everyday for international call.. let me know if don't work. If works just enjoy..

Thanks for your reply. I've been using Groove IP with very good results over wifi (that's what I care about, Sprint 3G mobile data is so bad anyway that it can't carry a call). The paid Groove IP integrates nicely with the native dialer too, so the experience is good.

[Q] [SOLVED] Newbie Google voice question

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!

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.

SIP calling does not work

SIP calling option does not work on my HTC One M9. Did anyone else see this behavior. I set the SIP calling setting to 'Ask for every call'. SIP aaccount registers fine (for receiving calls).
When I make the call, I select Internet call and then select the SIP account, but then the call still goes out as 'Verizon' ..

Don't think I follow you. The number I dial can be dialed via SIP account (or) my VZW number, based on where I am. How do I specify a SIP contact..? It's just a 10 digit phone number, no?

Still have not been able to make the outbound SIP calling work.. The SIP account registers just fine (says 'Receiving Calls'). Perhaps the phone is diverting SIP calls via VoLTE even after selecting the appropriate SIP account to call from. Disabling the advaced calling option is not helping either...
This is very weird. Anyone else successfull in making an outbound call via SIP account (via callcentric/localphone account etc) from M9??

Same phenomenon with my HTC 10. I used SIP calls with htc one X for a long time, switched to HTC 10 with same settings. When I make a call, wierdly it is redirecting to operator.
Could not find anything on HTC website.
Maybe it is related with android versions.
oneX's version as I remember was Kitkat
10's version is Marshmallow

Are you using the native SIP? Have you tried a third party app? I currently use Grandstream Wave with no issues (MM, stock, rooted).
