(xxxx, yyyy, are my GV number and the destination number)

I'm using a SIP number for call back that is verified with GV and the number is in TOR's 'forward' field.

Any idea why I'm getting this?

Try putting it in nickname field. I should remove the forward field and comment when that error comes up what things to try.

That worked! Thanks.

I did this bit of nastiness for three reasons:

The "advanced" settings do not appear on all platforms
You can change callback without a login/logout
It is more in your face.

You could rename the "screen name" field to "call back number".

BTW, I'm very happy with this app, thank you. Now works fine with IPv6 too (with the help of LDPreloadNat64).

I'm actually very lazy am maintaining a python only stance (libfolks might break me of this). The UI is a plugin so has to be in C++ so instead I am (ab)using the telepathy-haze UI.

I see. I thought it might be possible since My Contacts widgets does that if ur not signed into GV already.

Really? Does My Contacts show up in the account dialogs? If so I'm really curious how they do that. Other wise and more likely is that through some different plugin mechanism they added a button and that plugin system allows more arbitrary actions.

I was referring to Crochik's MyContacts app. It doesn't show up in IM Accounts list. In MyContacts' Call/SMS routing preferences, I have set my first preference to Google Voice. I think GV only shows up in this menu if TOR is installed. There is another Google Voice (MyContacts) option too.

So if I try calling any contact from the widget and if I am not already signed in, it signs into GV and then places a call using GV account.

MyContacts has at least three different ways to dial out using GV. Setting up call options there does not require the method to be logged in. For example, you could select TOR to dial out and TOR was not connected or not even installed, but that option was there in MyContacts.

I think there was one option in MyContacts in which the app dials out to your GV number, then sends DTMF tones to begin dialling out. This method quite naturally does not require "logging in".
(I might be confusing the app that has this feature - it might have been in vicar.

)

So MyContacts is there by being a plugin to the Contacts app

TOR is a plugin to the communication framework. The communication framework provides the plugin to the contact app and I have no control over it.

I could write a plugin to the contacts app also but that seems outside of the scope of TOR and is already being provided.
