I am currently looking for someone to help out with this blog. I didn't realize the scope that this blog would effect. Hits from countries in political strife and the like, people looking for a way to communicate outside of government control.

Google Voice+Sipgate+Gv App= Free calls (sipsorcery is down) - Android Forums

Google Voice+Sipgate+Gv App= Free calls (sipsorcery is down) - Android Forums

Google Voice+Sipgate+Gv App= Free calls (sipsorcery is down)

Ok Im not going to write a full guide for this but I'll give a basic outline for now.


Step 1: Sign up for Sipgate here and get yourself a free number from them. You'll probably end up getting a number from san fransisco but it doesn't really matter.
Also you dont need to do this if you already have gizmo5

Step 2: Go on your android phone and download this app Evan Charlton :: GV you can download straight to phone or put on sd card and launch it with Astro.

Note: For those who don't know Astro is basically an explorer application from the appstore and really is a must have.

Step 3: Now in your settings put your Sipgate number in the area where it says callback and put your voicemail pin. If you dont know your voicemail pin just put something in there.

Make sure there is a green check for "Route all calls through GV
Last make sure you set calling method to call back.

now your done with the easy stuff time for the "hard part"
  • Add your sipgate number to your google voice account and make sure calls are forwarded through there.
  • Now after that go download an app called sipdroid
  • Open Sipdroid and go into settings. and then SIP Account settings.
  • Now you need to go on your computer and login into Sipgate.
  • CLick on Settings and move your mouse on the phone and click Sip Credentials
  • Now go back to your phone and put the username as whatever your SIP-Id that is given to you by sipgate
  • For password put the SiP-password given to you by sipgate
  • For Server and Domain put sipgate.com
  • Now your done (ignore port/protocol)
  • Go back to your Gv app and call someone... you should receive a call. From there just answer the call and you'll be connected
known Issues:
First is my guide is horrible and i need to redo it
When you make a call off Gv for some reason Sipdroid seems to reset itself and you have to wait for it to connect

Also Gv sometimes force closes when you make a call but the call still goes through.

Have tried over 3g but not wifi
