Yes, you will need two sim cards from your phone company.

Yes, I use Google voice which is able to ring multiple landlines and cell numbers.  Danger is wife answers my calls on the voip line at home while I'm expecting the call on my cell at work.

This. It was sort of commonplace in the brief period when car entertainment systems accepted a sim card, before they were equipped with Bluetooth.

But only one number is a google voice number right?  The other is your actual cell service number?  I wish I could have a couple google voice numbers with different area codes.

yes, one number is the sim, the other my google voice number.  i dont think you can set up gv accounts like that.  they ran out of numbers years ago unless they have more now.  when i got mine i was acctually able to pick it from a list so my number is xxx-xxx-XBOX because it was my business line for modding 360's.

1 cell with 2 numbers would work for me as well I guess. LOL. How is this done?

Dual sim or have one number divert all calls to your other number. Dual sim phone would be the most elegant option though.

It doesn't divert, it rings both numbers.  Not sure why that is less elegant than dual sim...  I think its better since your second number isn't attached to anything but your google account.

unfortunately the way that i have 2 numbers on my phone isn't a google voice option for new accounts anymore.  basically it was just a separate phone line that forwared all calls to my cell phone.  last time i checked google wasn't passing out phone numbers anymore and makes usuers just use their own number.

I set up a google voice number for someone less than two months ago.

Does it matter what phone and or phone service provider I choose? I'm changing my phone and service provider next month. I may be going with Simple Mobile. Not sure about phones yet other than I like Droid.

Yet another reason I like Google voice.  It stays with my email address no matter what phone or service I have.

I would like 2 sim cards with the same number for 2 phones. I have an s3 which is mainly just for media. I have a nexus 5 which I use as my main phone. I would like to use the s3 as a navigation device for my car, whilst my nexus 5 would be my actual phone. I would like to use my cell data for the navigation on my s3, and use the cell service on my nexus 5 for phone calls. If one of the phones happens to be near me, I can answer that one for calls, or if the other phone is near me, I can answer that one for calls.

A standalone GPS doesn't appeal to you?

Is what you're saying even possible? 2 sim cards with same number for 2 phones?

Also, are all service providers/phones these days able to transfer my current # to a new phone/service provider or only certain companies?

Yes, 2 sim cards on the same number is possible. Has been for many years. But I understand that the Google phone option is easier/cheaper these days.

i have 3 phone numbers tied to one phone. I use a google voice number, and two verizon numbers. I was using google voice for my self employment business, and my personal verizon number originally.  I then got a computer job which i was giving a company phone. I know carry the company phone and forward my personal verizon number and google voice number to it. So technically i have 3 numbers tied to the same phone. I also use the new work phones message app (iphone) for the work texts, and i setup the verizon messenger app on it with my personal verizon number so that all the texts were seperated and It would show my texts i sent show up from either number depending on which app i used. And of course the google voice app also shows its own number.

This make any sense lol? Hard to explain it quickly.
