Harshal 11 Report post Posted July 24, 2009 I am using a US PC, I have an RDC PC based in US. There is no such option of selecting Gizmo5 number. It says that "Account must have at least one physical phone." Is there a workaround to this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MVP 3 Report post Posted July 24, 2009 and of course I used a US proxy server... May be it was a transparent proxy. Try googling for free US anonymous proxy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It says that "Account must have at least one physical phone." Is there a workaround to this. Go to http://phone.ipkall.com/ Register with your Gizmo Sip no and gizmo proxy(You can get the proxy info from my.gizmo.com). If ipkall approves your application, you get a free PSTN no which can be forwarded to gizmo or gtalk (via gtalk2voip). Then you can use the ipkall number to verify with google. Approval takes a couple of days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted July 24, 2009 ^ OK, I was able to log on to google voice with an anonymous us proxy; but on the first screen it asks me to choose a number and asks to enter zip code or area code and/or enter name and search... I entered the first few digits of sip no. but it doesnt recognise them... what to do now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MVP 3 Report post Posted July 24, 2009 If I enter the SIP of Gizmo, it says "Account must have atleast one physical phone". There are only three phone types listed on the dialogbox - Home, Work and Mobile and it doesnt list Gizmo there. Remove the "1" from the beginning of the gizmo SIP number and try to activate using that. May not work but you can give it a try. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can search for fancy numbers (like 408 0DKAILE, 218 234 5678) or/and numbers based on US area code. But most of the good numbers are already taken.

sajokj 8 Report post Posted July 26, 2009 (edited) First Get the invitation from Google Voice. Then Use a US Proxy to register in Google Voice. Then Google will ask to select you Google Voice Number. After selecting your google voice number, Register in Gizmo5 and you will get a US PSTN number from Gizmo. Google will ask you a forwarding number. Give your Gizmo5 number as forwarding number. Download Gizmo5 dialer software. then activate your google voice account. Then u are done Edited July 26, 2009 by sajokj Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted July 26, 2009 @sajokj If by Gizmo5 US PSTN Number you mean the SIP Number it generates, I tried that and IT DIDNT WORK... if there is some other solution or way around this, please post... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MOBILE FAN 42 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 Gizmo5 dont give PSTN number but SIP number. You need to get a free PSTN number from ipkall.com. While registering there you can add the SIP number of GIZMO5. I have applied at ipkall since Friday. Its been 3 days now but they have not approved or disapproved my application.

santhoshavanoor 7 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 Gizmo5 dont give PSTN number but SIP number. You need to get a free PSTN number from ipkall.com. While registering there you can add the SIP number of GIZMO5. I have applied at ipkall since Friday. Its been 3 days now but they have not approved or disapproved my application. Whats the problem with IpKall? Before 5 months we can get the number directly once we registered. But now they are verifying and issuing number to us. I have registered with IPkall before and got 2 numbers, which is expired because of not using it. so I tried to register and today I received a number starting with 360-xxx-xxxx.
