From GV help:
To call someone you haven’t called before, use your phone instead.
WTF?

It's called page source.

I got to that part. Is it the landing page after the login? Which element?

You're kidding, aren't you? Search for rnr... it's as simple as that.
It will amount to nothing, though. Won't work, this means.

Can't deny them some twisted sense of humor.

I wasn't on the vintage page, that's why I couldn't find it. It's good to be up to date with the developments.

You need to change the password field so that it's in the format rnr=your_rnr_key the thing the code checks for is the "rnr=" at the start of the password field. If it finds it then no attmept will be made to login and instead the GV call will be directly placed with teh provided rnr_key.

It seemed to work when I tested with it but I can't be sure since my own GV account has not worked since the last bunch of changes when I suspect they added some more geographic checking (I'm not in the US).
Aaron, would you be able to apply this same hack to the GoogleVoiceSMS app?

I did already but given it doesn't seem to work for anyone with voice calls I doubt it will be successful with SMS.

I finally got a chance to test this out but I'm seeing in the console that the key is being converted to all lowercase and I'm fairly certain it's case sensitive. So it didn't work. I don't know if it's trying with the key as entered and only converting it in the console or if converted it before trying.

In case you're wondering, I got this to work in pygooglevoice by setting sp="my rnr key" in voice.py. I'm not sure why the code isn't pulling it properly from the page. After recompiling it, I successfully placed a call.
