Ignore the A_Friend advice above. Per DrGeoff's comment, Google Voice is designed for this purpose, with no need to use any settings on your OBi, nor any star codes.
Just link (add) your mobile phone number as a forwarding phone, to your Google Voice number, here:
https://voice.google.com/settings
Google Voice is specifically designed to simultaneously forward inbound calls to all of the following destinations:
All linked, 10-digit, US telephone numbersAll linked OBiTALK devicesAll Google Hangouts clients on web browsers or on the Android or iOS mobile appsAll web browser or Android clients if you are enrolled in the Google Voice WiFi/4G VoIP calling beta
There is no cost to just leaving your mobile phone linked as a forwarding phone. If you don't want to listen to it ring when you are at home, then you can turn off forwarding to that number by toggling the switch off in Google Voice settings, then toggle it on again if you want it to work again while you are away.
as i explained this forwarding number is not compatible with google voice because it does not support SMS

There is no such limitation. What do you mean?
Google Voice can forward telephone calls to nearly all US telephone numbers, either mobile or land line, as long as the number has working phone service on it. Google Voice can forward text messages to nearly all US mobile numbers. You can have up to six mobile and/or land line telephone numbers, in any combination, linked as forwarding phone numbers.

Your posts about the forwarding number make no sense.
You can add and verify nearly any US land line or mobile number. If that procedure doesn't work, then post a reply describing in detail how you tried to add and verify the number, and exactly what happened.

When linking a number to google voice it has to be verified.
google sends a 6 digit code to the phone and it could work through sms or a call my number does not receive sms so i chose call but i dont get the call... so i cant verify!
