Re: Using GV Phone Extension - Was Jailbreaking
Hi. Either Verizon or AT&T will be fine. The only reason I ask is because I know that sometimes sprint accounts are tied in a little closely with Google voice numbers and so things may not work quite the same. Some Google voice numbers are considered land lines while others are considered mobile phones. If you look up your Google voice number on white pages.com you will know if it is considered landline or mobile. If your Google voice number is considered a mobile number, then you can call it or receive calls from it with unlimited minutes using Verizon or AT&T. However if it is a land line, then you will have to add it to your favorites list in Verizon or a list in AT&T. With GV phone extension, I have it set to the callback feature. So when I make an outgoing call it first connects to Google voice and then calls my phone back. So I get an incoming call and as soon as I answer my phone call is put through. I have another jailbreak tweak called auto answer. I said this to automatically answer when my Google voice number calls. The end result is that when I double tap on a phone number to call, Google voice calls me back from my Google voice number, and the phone answers automatically. So it looks like a normal outgoing call. I hope all this makes sense. -- Raul A.
