International call exit code 011 not working correctly with a Cordless phone

I repeat. What does GV's call history show? https://voice.google.com/calls
+ is the conventional way of indicating that you must dial the international access code before the other digits. The international access code is not the same in all countries. Sometimes even different between service providers in the same countries. Most of Europe uses 00. N.America typically uses 011. I believe GV uses 011.

I noticed the failed calls in GV Call history were dialing to (811) 234-5678 instead of 01181123456789... seems to strangely somehow left out the 011 and the last digit 9... even though I was always dialing 011 first
I'm not sure why the dialing was glitching then... problem with Google or Obihai's server end? I'm guessing it must have been some issue/glitch with Google because on Obihai Call History the dial was sending the correct number 01181123456789
I am able to place calls now and GV Call History is showing +81 12-345-6789
But I really don't think that code makes any difference or is necesssary. I tested it again removing the code, dialing the Japan number, and adding code again and dialing Japan number and the results were exactly the same.
I understand + is essentially the same as 011 (but since old cordless phone doesn't have a way to dial + symbol, you have to use 011).

1. Conventional legacy phone systems do not use, do not transmit and do not understand the '+' symbol. The only characters supported are 0 to 9, * and #. The '+' is intended for human use to give a universal way of writing full international phone numbers. Some equipment is capable of recognising the '+' symbol and either acting on it appropriately or converting it into the correct characters in the [0-9,*,#] set that subsequent equipment needs.
2. As I wrote in the first reply, if OBi's Call History is showing SP1(01181123456789) then that is what it is sending to GV. If GV is then mangling that to something else, then either GV does not want 011 as the international access code or it has some other bug. 811 234 5678 is a NANP (North America Number Plan) number. That would indeed have given you a different ring tone than the usual Japanese one!

Once you have used the Obitalk portal to configure your OBi device to use GV, no server run by or on behalf of Obihai has any role in making GV calls.

Yeah, I understand (811) 234-5678 was calling a US number and + is a shortcut as if entering 011...
What is the point of the {(<011:+>xx.):sp1}, code then? Because even with that code, when you look at Obihai dial history, it still show as 01181123456789
I don't see how adding that code is "faster" or is a shortcut to anything...
