I've heard a lot of complaints that call quality with VoIP on Nexus One is awful -- tons of latency, lots of clipping -- it sounds like this isn't your experience?
I've seriously considered trying out a data-only plan with T-Mobile, plus one of the pay as you go plans to fill in coverage gaps, but the bad reports of VoIP on the Nexus One have held me back.
- tumult 17y agoI haven't had any problems. Keep in mind I haven't tried any of the other VoIP clients for Android -- Skype, Nimbuzz, etc. Only sipdroid. But I've used it over plain EDGE/GPRS on my Android dev phone (G1) and had no quality issues to speak of, other than the occasional dropped call, which can happen on normal GSM anyway. As far as I know, the 'official' Skype client for Android is still 'Skype Lite' or something, which costs you minutes on your cell phone plan to use, and might connect over GSM as well (I'm not sure). It wouldn't surprise me if this craptacular idea tarnishes people's perception of VoIP on Android.
- ruslan 17y agoOh really ? Sipdroid does support G.711mu only, which a) never fits into narrow GPRS/EDGE bandwidth, b) incredibly sensitive to network fluctuations, lags and packet loss. So I believe you are a little bit unfair in regards of Sipdroid voice qality :-). Even Speex and G.729 hardly fit into poor GPRS/EDGE, trust me as experienced VoIP developer. Also Sipdroid has a bug in RTP class which introduces huge latency, somehow they don't event want to fix it although they were pointed to it many times.
- catch23 17y agotry a better sound codec. I got lots of clipping using ulaw, but it's crystal clear on speex.
