phonegeek 588 Report post Posted August 13, 2009 I still need a tutorial to figure this thing out. Will someone be kind enough to post one? 1. Start registration on Google Voice by using US proxy. 2. Get one of the USA local phone number. You can easily look for a number based on the criteria on the screen. pick the one whichever you like. 3. Download Gizmo dialer from https://www.gizmocall.com/. Register there. From there you will get your SIP No. 4. Go to http://phone.ipkall.com/ . Register with your Gizmo SIP and proxy as proxy01.siphone.com. (Choose area code as 360 as this worked in my case) .In a couple of days your ipkall number will be activated. 5. Put the number in Google Voice, then google will call you on the same for verification purpose. 6. Either go to www.mygizmo5.com or through the dialer, press the verification no when google calls you. If unsuccesfull, try putting * before dialing the verification no. You may have to try this 2-3 times from Gizmo software or gizmo website. 7. After verification, you are ready to go........ I hope this may help you....Gurus please edit anything if I had missed something.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MOBILE FAN 42 Report post Posted August 14, 2009 Why you people are sending SMS through GoogleVoice when there are several other free SMS websites available for India. There is a separate thread for this also. I am using way2sms.com for the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is a separate thread for this also. I am using way2sms.com for the same. 1. Because receiver receives the SMS from my google no and not from unknown No. 2. I can use full 160 characters !
