Default Groove IP settings on your N7000

I just can't seem to find the right settings for groove IP. Anyone had any success? I get stutter / cut outs, roboticish voice, etc. I know it isn't googlevoice call quality because when i'm home I use an 8 year old wireless phone along with an obi100 and call quality is excellent.

I been using groove ip for a while.. let my give you my settings which .. I agree.. are a result of trial and error:

In troubleshooting... I keep the screen on
In echo cancellation... post processing

Other settings are default.. and I keep it up from morning til night since I am outside the US and get "local" US calls

Now I also have GIP in my moto Atrix and the settings are different..

I agree with you.. it is difficult and they also depend on the quality of your internet connection or if you have 3G HSPDA+ on your data connectionn

I have also used Talpatalk (which I have in my iCrap devices and the it works fantastic.. not much tweaking. The latest versions of
Android Talpatalk are better than what they used to be a few months ago but I bought GIP premium when Tapatalk had not released the Android app, so I am using GIP

If anyone else can drop ideas.. much appreciated

Really appreciate the settings. On my S2 I had the settings pretty well tweaked to have "good" voice quality about 90% of the time. Seems that either ICS changed the audio stack (S2 was on GB) or there is significantly different hardware in the note such that those same settings did not translate at all to the Note. Also could be the latest version of GooveIP isn't as good or whatnot.

I will try those settings later tonight. What do you have your mic and speaker volumes set to? What about mic buffer length? Oh and I only use grooveIP on a quality wifi connection. T-mobile in the USA only gets 2G service anyway on the Gnote.

I just downloaded and tried it briefly. Seems it is free but ad supported? Any particular settings that you set up with it?

Pardon the silly Q but what is the difference between that and Google Voice? I thought with google voice I was already saving on my minutes but reading about that it claims that using Groove IP with google will save you on your voice minutes..so I am confused.

Gayest quote ever from MST3K!
"You know Captain, every year of my life, I grow more and more convinced that the wisest and best is to fix our attention on the good and the beautiful...if you just take the time to look at it.".

Google voice only forwards calls to your mobile if you use it on your mobile. The app also allows you to use free "texting" if you forward texts to your gchat (option is available in gvoice settings).

Using groove IP on the other hand allows you to send/receive phone calls to your mobile using the app, without using any carrier, just internet. Its basically a mobile VOIP connection. The downside is of course that you must be on wifi or a super duper 4g connection (with low pings) to get good quality calls.

One good thing about grooveip is the the sound in the speaker and the ear piece can be set to really loud. I have never found any app that was able to do this .

Wish some one could figure out how its being done.
