asterisk users - Feb 2011 - Google Voice outbound Caller ID broken

Anybody else noticed that caller id for outbound calls via Google Voice
seems to be broken?  It seems to be a Google Voice problem though, not an
asterisk issue.

What kind of "broken" are you seeing.

 

It could be the ID is pseudo ID and may never reflect the actual caller.

Yes.. google it ?

This is what I have done to resolve it (I posted a few days ago on this)

exten => _9NXXNXXXXXX,1,Dial(gtalk/(value in
gtalk.conf)/+1(googlevoice#)@voice.google.com,30,D(wwwwww2www${EXTEN:1}#w))

Chris,

Can you please provide more details.

What do you exactly mean by "broken?"  Do your call recipients get a
random CID?

Have you tried to call from the GMail WEB interface?  Are you getting
the same result?

Chris,

Let me summarize:

   1. GV Outbound CID shows "Unknown", "Unavailable",
"Out of area"
      (depending on a recipient's carrier) starting some time around
      02/15/2011 if a call is placed via Google Chat/Google Talk/Google
      Mail/Asterisk GTalk channel.  See
     
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/voice/thread?tid=49c21d292e80ff65&hl=en&start=40
      for other users' accounts.
   2. This CID feature failure affects only some GV phones, some still
      work fine as of 02/24/2011.
   3. Calls placed with GV call-back facility work fine for the phones
      affected by the issue described in #1.
   4. A workaround is to set Caller ID (incoming) to " Display my Google
      Voice number "  As expected it will suppress an incoming CID.  So
      it is not a perfect workaround.
   5. Another workaround is to trigger a GV callback facility per
      William Stillwell's posting.  Connection time increases with this
      workaround.

Historically it took 15 days to a month for Google to fix similar problems.
