I've been following all of the GV Apps that I've heard of (mostly iDialer, GVDialer and Onedialer). I can say, I've stuck with iDialer (using iContact) pretty consistently.
OneDialer has SMS capability, but it's
painfully slow -- defeating the whole purpose. This is what I do for SMSing with GV:
Say I have a contact in my phone whom I've never Texted.
-Make sure they're in your Google Contacts.
-use my mobile browser, go to google.com/voice and send them a *first* text through the SMS function on the site. I'll usually say, "Hey, it's Alex - save this as my new number-- text me back if you got this". Send it, then close browser.
-When they send me a text back, it goes to my phone and shows up as a(406) area code number.
If I understand correctly, Google assigns each one of your contacts a (406) number only if they've sent you a text.
-Within the SMS window on my phone, I click or tap on that (406) number and
save it under their contact name as their cell phone (or work phone or whatever).
Now, whenever you call this (406) number that you've assigned to their contact, it will show up on their caller id as your google voice number. Same with SMS'.
For all contacts who I don't text, I just use supware.net 's iDialer/iContact , syncing my contacts/Calendar with NuevaSync.com
Hope that helps!
