Java – Google Voice receives notifications for new calls

Google Voice receives notifications for new calls… here is a solution to the problem.

Google Voice receives notifications for new calls

I

know there is an unofficial Google Voice API for Java, but I can’t find any way to subscribe to get new call notifications. I want to make an Android app that works like a Gmail chat widget that allows you to answer incoming calls directly using Google Voice instead of going to a forwarded number. That way, if a user has a WiFi connection, they don’t have to use their mobile operator’s airtime, and they can answer calls directly from Google Voice instead of forwarding them to their mobile operator’s number. Is there any way? How does the Gmail chat widget do it?
Thank you.
