CSipSimple for Android Mobile Phones

This is the configuration guide for setting up the CSipSimple application on an Android device.

Pre-requisites

Before you start, you need to know your VoIP username, password and the server that your number is connected to. You can do this from your Soho account, by clicking "My Soho", then "My Numbers", then the telephone number that you wish to connect to. The VoIP username and VoIP password is near the bottom of the page, in a section entitled VoIP Settings.

You will also need the CSipSimple application installed on your phone, this can be found in the Android Market App or at the following URL: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.csipsimple

Configuring your phone

The first time you start CSipSimple it will ask you to add an account, tap "Add account". If you are not asked to add an account press the menu button and tap "Accounts". You will then see a list of VoIP providers to choose from, find and tap "Basic" and enter the following information:

Account Name: Anything you want
