  • In my phone it doesn't work over 3G, only Wifi.
  • What phone do you have? curious
  • It does not work on my droid
  • verizon wont charge extra for this?
  • Hey, what about call quality over voip? Do you experience a sound delay? Just wondering cause I consider to move to Android OS. I'm curious how they did solve the problem making a Voip call posibility on Android OS?? It used to be imposible cause Android is based on Java.
  • I wonder when the SkypeOut and SIP functions will work on the DROID? But this is a pretty awesome app...
  • Delay of course is there. Not horrible. Able to hold a conversation on a Moto droid without issue. Both inbound and outbound. Impressed. Need more options for sip ie. registration timeouts are way too high and a more normal port would be better. Mind you udp above 5060 is fine but 52xxx is a bit outta line. Most VoIP providers stick to a series be it 10000 thru 20000 or something similar. Otherwise. I love this thing. Can only get better from here.
  • We were having issues on 3g --> Wifi where my friend could hear me but I couldnt hear him. Both on cyanogen androids. Also needs options to change ringtone/notification sounds and remove notification bar messages download if only to support though, good app.
