| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | bunnicula | 3/21/11 4:02 PM | I have a question. Specifically, into what category will the minutes fall with Sprint? Most Sprint customers currently are being forced to upgrade to the company's new "Any Mobile/Anytime" plans, where all calls made to a mobile phone (regardless o |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | G. Phoenix | 3/22/11 2:17 AM | How will picture messages be received for Sprint customers porting their number to GV since GV does not support sending nor receiving picture messages yet? |

Phoenix From the Sprint/Google FAQ http://www.sprint.com/landings/googlevoice/?ECID=vanity:googlevoice MMS is currently not supported by the Google Voice integration, so MMS sent from your Sprint phone will always display your Sprint number and w |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | Papa Bear | 3/22/11 2:26 PM | The following statement is from http://www.wired.com/epicenter/2011/03/sprint-google-voice/ Google Voice can’t handle MMS messages (text messages with photos), and any sent to a true Google Voice number will be lost without any notification to you |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | D-a-v-i-d | 3/23/11 10:09 AM | papa bear i dont understand, so what am i gaining with googlevoice other than essentially a separate voicemail and call hunt features ? if i end up loosing mms by giving out a googlevoice number that would be kinda stupid, people would be sending |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | schmidtj | 3/23/11 7:46 PM | Except one option with the Sprint/GV integration is your Sprint phone number IS your GV number so there is no differentiation. So you'd give up the ability to send MMS messages? |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | jarrett p. | 3/25/11 6:48 AM | Will this service work with nextel and boost mobile since sprint owns both carriers? |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | SnerdlyBosco | 3/25/11 6:59 AM | @jarrett p. From the FAQ: http://www.google.com/support/voice/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1205636 Will this work on my phone? You can use Google Voice on Sprint with any Sprint branded mobile phone. Nextel phones, PowerSource phones, corporate phones, |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | drslippyfist | 4/2/11 9:23 PM | Even though they have saved the MMS by sending them through the sprint network,porting your number will cost you minutes. How does this affect my Sprint Phone Bill? It doesn’t. You don’t pay extra for the Google Voice features, and your text messag |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | erkme73 | 4/4/11 9:32 AM | I think there are some on here who think the integration is porting - it's not. Porting requires the termination of your existing sprint plan, and then the purchase of a new line/contract. This latest integration announcement eliminates the need to |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | BeCasual | 4/5/11 2:35 PM | TO: @JonathanLovesCat ( please reply to all of these questions ) You don't have to answer #6 If I do....... Option 2: Replace your Sprint number with your Google Voice number. Will? 1. Will I still be able to SMS and MMS with ANDROID MESSAGING |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | amsoma2004 | 4/12/11 2:30 PM | MMS is not supported by GV yet but you will still be able to MMS through your handset. So there is no lost functionality there. You will be able to SMS through GV or your handset simultaneously - so the handset will pcik up the thread where it was |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | jeffsheets | 4/12/11 6:17 PM | Jonathan - I had an interesting thing happen in my quest for Sprint / GV integration. As an avid Google Apps user and Sprint EVO user, I was excited about the announcement and immediately proceeded with trying to "link" my Sprint # to my GV account. |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | chiliu78 | 4/13/11 9:36 AM | I am having the EXACT issue that Jeffsheets is having. I've had my current number for well over 5 years and I stupidly ported my Sprint number to GV thinking that was part of the Sprint/GV integration process. After days of headaches with many lost |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | chiliu78 | 4/13/11 9:42 AM | Another problem I also found is that once I ported my original Sprint number from Google Voice to Sprint again, I am unable to retrieve texts sent from other Google Voice accounts. |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | pgambling | 4/14/11 11:55 AM | @BeCasual - I can answer question #4. This FAQ, http://www.google.com/support/voice/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1207078, indicates that you can disable the integration at anytime. I just chose option 2 (replace Sprint number with GV number), my Sprint |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | ariofrio | 4/20/11 8:48 AM | Whn will this be available? I'm really excited about this. Its been a month since the announcement. Any news? Anyone has gotten this yet? |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | sam1am | 4/20/11 1:14 PM | I've heard of a few people getting it, so I thought they were rolling it out, but apparently not. |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | cesierra | 4/20/11 6:14 PM | is this valid for Sprint customers in AK/HI/PR ? |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | isaacl | 4/22/11 7:46 AM | Trying to find out - if international calls will go though GV, what happens with calls to Canada? I'd love if they'd be routed through GV, but does anyone have any info on that?Thanks. |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | davis5253 | 4/22/11 9:58 AM | After much excitement, I enabled the GV (Google Voice) integration with my Sprint number. After a day of testing, I have disabled GV and have gone back to my original sprint number for a host of reasons. 1. I don't want to use the GV texting. |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | rickame | 4/23/11 10:49 AM | Some good questions and answers here...now another question...if you have a free number that can be called or received by Sprint (you can get up to 5 if you ask) and you make that your google voice number you can both receive and make calls via googl |
| Re: Announcing Google Voice + Sprint Integration | amsoma2004 | 4/24/11 3:04 AM | Got my invitation on Friday and have to say that, for me at least, this is like a whole new day for Sprint. I love the integrated service between GV and Sprint. I have been a GV user for about a year and a Spring customer for about 13 years and thi |
