Re: [Ekiga-list] Ekiga.net account with Android 2.3.4 native SIP-client

I was reading the results of your test with ekiga.net on android 2.3.4 
built in sip, which i use for my daily life only on tmobile-usa 3g 
network.  I think you can get ekiga.net to work with android but it 
would have to be through a middle man.  That middle man would have to be 
pbxes.org which is what i use as my sip provider on android 2.3.4 built 
in sip client.  It registers and connects fine, but for people to call 
you on ekiga.net you would have to go to pbxes.org and forward the 
incoming call going to your sip address at pbxes.org to ekiga.net and 
vice versa.  So if someone calls your ekiga.net sip address it would be 
forwarded to your pbxes.org sip address then you would be able to pick 
up phone call on your android 2.3.4 device's sip client which would be 
registered to your pbxes.org sip address.  In terms of calling other 
people on sip you could simply just return the call and use pbxes.org 
web browser system settings to tell people that the incoming call-id 
would show your ekiga.net sip address instead of your pbxes.org sip address.

Basically what i think could solve your problem would be to use another 
sip provider to forward and direct your calling through your ekiga.net 
sip address.  Hope this helps.

Also if you are still certain about using a third party app over the 
built in sip client which i use to do on my android phone before android 
got built in sip, both sipdroid and csipsimple are fantastic.  I think I 
will have to give csipsimple more thumbs up and praise because i feel 
that app is a little more polished than sipdroid and also they have in 
there settings an actual pre-made settings for users who use ekiga, so 
getting ekiga registered with that sip client is easier in my opinion, 
they also have actually a whole bunch of sip providers settings already 
pre-made for users.
