Google Voice beta and the future of Obihai support
RFC3261:

As typical for large-scale deployments, this is being staged, so that every device doesn't update at once, overwhelming the system.
Actually, in todays devops environments (with various auto-scaling capability of resources), typically the more important reason to not update everything at once is to evaluate the impact(s) using the approach of canary testing (sometimes known as soak tests). Start small, evaluate the impacts, if bad, stop (roll back or roll forward to a revised fix as appropriate), if good, roll out to a bigger customer base, repeat in various percentages, and only then release the hounds. In any change there will be random failures ("stuff" happens), but one prefers to understand the failures when they are impacting fewer users.

Excellent points, and yes, that's how Google does their rollouts. Because they seldom announce or explain what you wrote, users are often perplexed or ask "why haven't I got this new feature yet?"

I got the beta update and my obi is showing as an sip device in google voice. The only issue i'm having is when i dial my number for voicemail it asks for the pin not even though I have it set not to. I went to legacy google voice to switch the setting after getting the beta but it didn't work.

Is screenshot 2 what it used to look like, and #3 what it looks like now?
Mine still looks like screenshot 2

No I just clicked on edit to change voicemail preferences. All 3 are current.
