Vestalink and Cloud Softphone
Pa_Bell:
On my phone the Force Close option is grayed out unless I start Cloud Softphone first, only then can I Force Close to kill it. That's a big pain and makes me wonder if there's some more friendly software somewhere which will do the same thing. Either that or I've somehow overlooked Cloud Softphone's master kill switch. When I go overseas this will be a godsend but now it's just a pain.
OneForTheTeam:
Force Close/Force Stop is enabled only if the application is running. Makes sense doesn't it. Is the claim that CloudPhone is running but Force Stop not enabled?

I realize that it sounds nutty and makes no sense.
1. Cloud Softphone is set to not run when the phone boots (Start Application after boot is not checked).
2. Cloud Softphone is grayed out so force close/force stop isn't an option (because it isn't running).
3. If I'm on wifi and get a call Cloud Softphone rings my cell phone, Sprint rings my phone (my cell phone rings with 2 different and distinct tunes at the same time) and I get a request to answer the call on the screen from Cloud Softphone.
4. After the call the Cloud Softphone icon is in the upper left of the screen waiting for a new call. If I check my phone after the call Force Close/Force Stop is now not grayed out, because it's obviously running.
I'm certainly willing to believe that I've missed something here. The phone is a Samsung Galaxy S2 running Jelly Bean 4.1.2 and it's rooted.

Pa_Bell,
It is certainly weird. Also can you just clarify one thing on Item 3. You indicate that both Cloud SoftPhone and your default cell Phone ringer go off when you get a call. What number was dialed by the caller? Your cell or your VestaLink number? I would think it is the cell phone number. If so, I fail to understand why CloudPhone would ring...
I would report issues with CloudPhone to Vestalink. Perhaps they can use their influence to have a fixed version released.

The called number is always my Google Voice number which I had ported to them from Sprint. I don't use, have ever given out or offhand even know what my Vestalink or cellphone numbers are; GV is set to forward incoming calls to both. Outgoing calls from my cell automatically are routed through GV and display my GV number, outgoing calls from Vestalink spoof my GV number just the way I want them to. Thanks for any help on this puzzler.
An interesting aside, I'm on WiFi at work and I got a call on my cell phone this morning and Cloud Softphone didn't ring this time, just Sprint. This is probably because when I booted the phone this morning I loaded up the Cloud Softphone to see if I could Force Close it and did so.
Interesting, the Cloud Softphone folks are in the Czech republic: http://www.acrobits.cz/1/about-us
