Re: Tektalk and my new Samsung s3 You first might to want to see (if possible) that you can set it up on your smartphone with wifi only. Reason I say that is some cell carriers will actually block SIP or due to the way they provision the data plan not make it work properly. It would not surprise me at all if Bell did that. |

| Thank mlerner...I talked to the tech guy at teksavvy, and he said that this could be done ala softphone (the same as on a pc), so it should work on the teksavvy end (but I don't know about Bell...).
Also, my first go at this was on the wifi only, and still no connection...but that could be the way I set it up. 
thanks for the info |

kudos:5 | Which softphone are you using? Might be able to help with that as I've worked with a few, not with TekTalk but should be the same. |

| Well, he said the softphone can work with TS, but we were only talking in the context of some android app...so getting the android app to work like a softphone is the trick (as long as Ma Bell and TS both cooperate)  |

Carriers do not block SIP over 3G/4G afaik. However, some phones have a restriction on the native feature (which can be avoided by using different apps or roms.
If you're using the stock Bell SGS3 Rom with native android SIP, you should know that sending DTMF tones in-call is broken ( or was broken on 4.0, maybe they fixed it on JB)
In any case, it should work, it's just your usual SIP proxy, username and password setting. |

Have you disconnected your ATA? Your cell phone cannot be connected to your SIP account while the ATA is active. |
