I'm having problems with GV & Metro phone numbers. Sometimes when someone call me, I do not hear the phone ring from either number sometimes. If I restart the phone then both may ring, for a period then stop again. Sometimes I may feel the vibration and get notified of miss calls, that is how I know it didn't ring.

Is anyone else having this issue? I wonder if having the GV number conflicting with Metro number? I had the same setup on my old phone, Motorola Moto G (first gen) and didn't have this issue. I've had the Zmax Pro since October.

Thnx.
 
I started using the Hangouts app instead of the Google Voice app. It fixed my problems. I have the ringer set to silent but keep the Hangouts ringer on since i don't use my carrier number.

Also, the Hangouts Dialer is good but will call over internet data so I use Voice+ to catch calls made from the Phone app and call me back on GV.
