Choosing sipdroid vs cell on incoming calls with CDMA networks #713

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Ok so here's my situation.  I have google voice and a gizmo set up for free 
calling, and everything works fine.  My problem is that when people call my GV 
number it forwards to both my cell and gizmo, therefore I see incoming calls 
through sipdroid, but if I don't accept the call immediately, my cell starts 
receiving the call as well which kills my data connection and forces me to take 
calls with the cell and use my minutes.  I can set my GV to forward only to my 
gizmo number, but depending on my location and 3g speed, sometimes I may prefer 
to answer the call with my cell instead of gizmo. 

 MY QUESTION:  Is there any way to set a delay to have GV ring my gizmo number first, and then after a few rings forward to my cell??  That way I can take calls for free if my 3g connection is stable, otherwise ignore the call via sipdroid until my cell rings and answer calls with the much more reliable Verizon network.

I figured out a workaround!  Purchased a call forward app on my android device 
and set it to forward all calls to my GV number which will keep my phone's data 
connection from dropping if my cell number were to start ringing because the 
call gets rerouted before it rings.  Viola!  When I'm on WiFi or have a good 3g 
connection then just toggle the call forwarding to on, and all calls will come 
through sipdroid!

Racked my brain for hours! so much forwarding!
