2) Incoming calls over voip trunk
SPX Service->X_InboundCallRoute-> = {spX(aaa),ph}
I have OBi100 and OBi202 all firmware updated. The method 2) is working but display my GV number not the caller ID on my cell phone. Any way to fix this? Thanks.

GV will not allow you to spoof a caller ID. If you want to pass the original caller ID on a bridged call, the outbound leg must use a provider that permits spoofing. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any free ones. Anveo is a good choice; calls to most of Canada are $0.005/min, with 30/6 billing.
Alternatively, you could get a US DID from a commercial provider that forwards to your Canada number (this has nothing to do with the OBi). In theory, VoxOx should be a free solution, but AFAIK there is no way to make it pass DTMF, so you would be unable to verify the number with GV.
You could use a free Callcentric (New York) DID, which you could forward via iNum to VoxOx, which would in turn forward to your Canada number. Though this would be free, I wouldn't expect a chain of three providers to be reliable or have the best quality. Also, you would have to state that you were using CC outside of North America, to avoid the $1.50/mo. 911 fee.

Just out of sheer curiosity, what kind of mobile phone do you use?

I tried *72 (Call Forward All) to my cell phone but the same, only show my own GV number, not the caller ID. I am new to VoIP, I have to learn more. Thank you.
