Google Voice is now Officially Supported on OBi VoIP devices
Crow550:
For CNAM.... Google should just integrate their Google Caller ID that's in the Android Dialer with G-Voice.
If that's something you'd like to see then use the Feedback Tool in the G-Voice app / site.
The more who request this the more likely they will add it. ;)
SteveInWA:
Your endless posts lobbying for features here and on the GV forum are getting tiresome. This isn't a petition drive, and Google won't be influenced by a talent show voting game. Features get developed based on many factors, including technical feasibility, business justification, and cost; user interest is just one factor. Believe me, a lot of engineers and product managers smarter than you are evaluating which features to include or not include in their products.
Telling people to spam Google with requests isn't going to win you any friends over there.

Well I'll take the word of the Engineers / Reps who have thanked me and told me and others to submit feedback or as you call "spamming".
I was told by an Engineer that I assume works at Google? Quote
"That the more feedback the team gets regarding a feature the better"

I also have been thanked for my constant feedback too: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topicsearchin/hangouts/author$3Ame/hangouts/IN4FB1VBiFw
They encourage anyone interested in a feature like auto switching for voip and cell calling based on network speed. To use the Feedback tool:

They seem to appreciate my suggestions as I have been told: Quote
"It's great hearing ways that the product could be improved."

I as well as everyone else was told: Quote
"Thanks for the suggestion, I will be sure to pass it on to Google as well for consideration. A great way for people to show interest in a particular feature is to use the feedback option in Hangouts so that way Google can track and see how much interest a new feature may have with users. Google is a data driven company so it really helps to support a great idea with user interest data."

"Feedback! Feedback! Feedback! YEA!"
You know these "smarter than me engineers". They did forget to add group SMS messaging into the G-Voice to Hangouts integration: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topicsearchin/hangouts/author$3Ame/hangouts/Z3dRwsOQZZc
A feature that has been in the Google Voice site and app since 2010. A feature that has been added to Hangouts unofficially with XVoicePlus or Cyanogenmod for quite sometime.
Yeah they are still adding features in but that's a big omission when adding G-Voice SMS support. The MMS support is cool but group messaging is important to many.

There is a big difference between the representatives that monitor the forum and are paid to be polite to the users that participate versus the engineers that are actually writing code and working long hours to get new features implemented. What makes you think that the people giving you positive feedback are engineers?

Oh and another thing. For these "smarter than me engineers". They forgot to add group SMS messaging into the G-Voice to Hangouts integration:
You really think that Google "forgot" to add group messaging to Hangouts any more than they "forgot" to add MMS to Google Voice. If you give them that little credit I don't know why you are spending time making suggestions on their forums unless you think that is the only way they will "remember".

Well I assume some are Engineers. I could be wrong. Sorry if I am.... I will clean up my post to reflect this.
I just wanted to point out that from what people who are either reps or engineers in the Forums have told me and others that using the Feedback Tool to submit feature requests for example the G-CallerID being integrated into G-Voice would not be a form of spamming from what I gathered from the feedback from the reps / engineers in the Forums.
Like I quoted in my last post:Quote
"Thanks for the suggestion, I will be sure to pass it on to Google as well for consideration.

I guess you misread what I posted but they added MMS support with G-Voice in Hangouts. It's group SMS chat through G-Voice they forgot to add.
As for the G-voice / Hangouts Forums. I will try to keep within one or two threads over there on bugs / missing features and ideas. Instead of making a new thread each time.
They seemed to welcome it.... I was just pointing out what I was informed in those forums to show my reasonings for telling people to use the Feedback Tool to request that. It was never my intention to spam or lobby everyone.
Sorry if it came across like that. I didn't mean to come across pushy. I was just trying to help from what I was told in the Forums that if there was a feature people wanted them to look into to use the Feedback tool.
