epage,
Is it possible to add a new feature such that one can enter an arbitrary forwarding phone number which is not registered in his GC account?
The fiirefox GC dialer extension allows such function and works well.

That error you are getting is very perplexing to me. It was able to find some but not all of the information on the webpage it was looking for. It found the login token but not what your account number is. I'm tempted to just allow it to be ignored but concerned about what else might behave in strange ways.
Oh, I have a guess as to whats going on. Does your data plan include any "phone optimizing" of webpages? DialCentral is very dumb. Until there is an API, it just downloads the GrandCentral/GoogleVoice webpages and searches them for relevant information. If your cell service that you are using when you are tethered modifies webpages, it might change the GrandCentral mobile pages just enough that we cannot find all of the relevant information. If you are able to download the following link through wifi and through tethering and PM me with it, hopefully that'll give me the clue I need to make it flexible enough to still work with your data plan.

As for arbitrary forwarding numbers, you should be allowed to. The forward selection combo box is editable and I just read the code and its theoretically possible though I don't have extra phones to try it with. If there are issues let me know.
Also, thanks for all of your efforts in working with me on resolving these issues.

I just promoted DialCentral 0.9.1, updated first post in this topic to reflect that.

When I use wifi, after I launch dialcentrial, the "dial" bottom turns gray from green and then turns gree again.
When I use BT tethering, the "dial" button is grayed out and it says "Login failed". Re-entering the correct username/passwd still gave me "Login failed".

I just gotta say thank you, this is why I love the OSS community, a quick update got DialCentral working with Google Voice, flawlessly. For the iPhone crowd, having to wait for "GV Mobile" is hilarious to me.
P.S. Would love to see an SMS add in, but not that important... after receiving a reply to sms messages from a contact, a google voice telephone number for each contact is given (ie: 1-406-***-****), which also simplifies calling using 'GV'. It's almost as if Google is killing DialCentral.

I am prepping the release of 0.9.2 which better integrates GoogleVoice while maintaining GrandCentral support.
So this might sound a bit pedantic being as how this is a very simple app. I've been thinking about it and am concerned over what features to add. I've always been someone in favor of the Unix philosophy and to me dialing has always been the main purpose. I've heard comments for SMS, voicemail playback, and am concerned over the loss of simplicity in the UI.
Also keep in mind, this is coming from a guy who can probably count on two hands in unary the number of texts he has sent/received. Also, I mainly use the mail client for voicemails especially with the new transcription feature.
As for GoogleVoice being a DialCentral killer, I kind of agree. The big thing that keeps me using DialCentral (besides as part of maintaining it so it doesn't die) is I have a large set of contacts for my Church that instead of trying to make one-way-sync somehow with google contacts I just download the latest CSV every once in a while and have DialCentral use that directly.

I agree that SMS doesn't appropriately belong in this app. It should be combined with the chat client, or the email client, or something else entirely.
