For those interested in testing Dialcentral for the n900, Daniel Wilms made a blog post about the testing process, with links to relevant wiki pages.

Please remember this is not a popularity contest and you should only give a thumbs up if you feel it meets the testing criteria.

I'm looking for help using Dial Central with Google Voice. I can sign in, but can't call out. Any clues? I'm using N900. I've only had it for 1:58 total, and use GV for all my calls and sms, so I really need this.

is Dialcentral still working for the n900? cant log in or anything. is there no documentation?

Sorry, I wrote a reply but I don't know what happened to it.

It depends, how much documentation is relevant? The first post in the thread does list some helpful things.

What version of Dialcentral? Data plan, wifi, or BT? So you used to be able to sign in but can't anymore, correct? When you could make calls, what type of phone did you forward to, cell, sip, skype, etc? When you could login, did you try to send any texts and did it work? Within Dialcentral, could you hit Ctrl+l (the letter L) which copies the log, and then paste it into a program so you can save it and add it as an attachment to your post?

I have had a bug from Texrat about completing calls but no one has been able to reproduce and he wasn't able to help me debug it.

I guess I just assumed the user would know if they were using the camera or recharging, but the blue color is always triggered externally by one of at least three programs. I guess a unique sound would also differintiate as well..

I have the same issue. I am using Dialcentral 1.0.8-5. I have try both with data plan and wifi, it shows the same thing wheather I am text or calling someone. I was able to make a call to cellphone before, and it forward to my cell. I am not sure how to paste the log. I am still very new to N900.

it doesn't accept my Google Voice login at all. I'm using sip atm

Not sure if this will clear things up for you or not...

1. Open Dialcentral
2. Hit Ctrl at the same time as l (lower case L)
3. Open "Notes"
4. Hit Ctrl at the same time as v (lower case V)
5. Open the menu
6. "Settings"
7. Select "Plain Text", "Done", "Yes"
8. Save
9. Either load up t.m.o and attach to your post or connect to your computer, grab the file and attach.

I also want to confirm: Dialcentral is only available in extras-testing right now. Are you aware of the risks associated with running software from extras-testing?

Would you be willing to post the log so I can get an idea of what the app is doing?

Ed I apologize for not being able to follow up on my issue. I had plans to dedicate time to catching up on app testing this past weekend but the N900's USB port getting broke stopped that fun cold.

I may or may not be getting a replacement soon. But anyway, I wanted to say a big THANKS for adding the log copy feature. That should be a Maemo best practice!

Looking forward to meeting you in person Wednesday.
