VoIP on Nseries via Gizmo 5

Well yesterday thanks to my friend Arjun again I've started using VoIP on my Nokia N95 8GB via Gizmo 5. Yes Gizmo 5 is the site where you can register for a free Gizmo account and then download the installer file for your Nokia Nseries device from here. Once the installation is done, add your login details when prompted for and you can enjoy free calling to other Gizmo users from your Nokia device via wi-fi.



Sounds cool right ? Yes is sure is! I've tried it out and I love it! Well you can make:

  • Free calls to other Gizmo users
  • Free calls to gtalk users
  • Calls to Skype users
  • Calls to any landline or mobile number for a very small amount.

To call you need to key in the username of the person you would like to call for that, Simply press "1" and then "HOLD #" from the home screen till a blank space for you to key-in characters appears

  1. now to call gimo users you just have to key in the username of the person
  2. to call gtalk you have to key in username@gmail.com username is replaced with the username (id) of the person.
  3. to call skype users you have to key in "skype_username" username is replaced with the username (id) of the person eg: skype_stephen
  4. and to call anu other numbers you just dial the number and select "Internet Call" from options or from the contacts menu.

Here are some screenshots taken from my N95 8GB.


so are you gonna try out VoIP ?
