Guest flashyphotos Posted November 15, 2012 Report Share Posted November 15, 2012 (edited) My 3G Nexus 7s arrived this afternoon, Has anyone got any ideas on trying to get a voice/sms phone app working on it, at the moment I have it running the standard 4.2 Rooted If you send a text message to the number on the SIM inserted you get a pop up message box bu there is no way to reply.. Not sure if there is going to be any simple way to at least activate full text messaging and hopefully full voice call services, but will try any suggestions Cheers EDIT - OK Full Text Messaging seems to work fine if you install GO SMS PRO, it detects the built in phone number and can send and recive text messages using that number the same as a stock SMS app, (Would prefer a stock one but this will do for now). Onwards and upwards now trying to get voice working.. Edited November 15, 2012 by flashyphotos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest rebski Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 So far SMS working but no voice... P What do you think of the possibility of voice? Is it feasible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Charlotte.KW Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 I wonder the possibility of voice too. It's a major consideration for me to choose between N4 and N7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rebski Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 A good bet would be to keep an eye on this [DEV] GSM phone calls on Nexus 7 3G http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2025377 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Montala Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 It is actually possible to receive and read but not, as has already been mentioned, to save or reply to SMS text messages on an unrooted N7 3G device. Leaving voice aside for the moment, surely all that is require here is for Google to make the inbuilt Android Messaging app (as used on the Galaxy Nexus phone) visible on the 3G versions of the N7. I don't suppose it would be possible for Paul to 'wave his magic wand' again and to make the default Messaging App visible... like he did with the Camera one... or isn't it as simple as that? (I hope you are reading this Paul! ;) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PaulOBrien Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 It's not on there. :) I add it in on my MCR... P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Montala Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 (edited) Thanks for your reply Paul, but.... err, what's an MCR please? (Sorry for being a bit 'thick'! :) ) Edit: Hang on... it wouldn't be MoDaCo Custom ROM by any chance now would it? :unsure: If possible I would like to be able just to install this particular App... like I did with your Camera one, but guess this may not be practical?
