Software needed:
WinSCP: https://winscp.net/eng/download.php
Putty: http://www.putty.org/

Forum post I got this info from: http://pbxinaflash.com/community/threads/gv-stopped-connecting-today.19394/page-5#post-122268

For those using Asterisk 1.8
"you'll need to make the SSLv3_method() to SSLv23_method() change in res/res_jabber.c instead of res_xmpp.c. " --Wardmundy
Also Asterisk 1.8 users can try to do it all from the command prompt:
cd /usr/src/asterisk/res
sed -i 's/SSLv3_method()/SSLv23_method()/g' res_jabber.c
amportal stop
cd /usr/src/asterisk
make
make install
reboot

Steps mentioned in this video:
1. Install WinSCP and connect to your PBX server using root login/pass
2. Edit res_xmpp.c FOUND IN /usr/src/asterisk/res
3. change the initialization of ssl_method from
SSLv3_method() to
SSLv23_method()
4. Using Putty, type cd /usr/src/asterisk/ from the root prompt
5. Type make and press enter. Wait for it to finish compiling.
6. Type make install and press enter. Wait for it to say successfully installed. If yes, reboot. If not, try killing the asterisk processes. You can do this by typing ps aux and searching for the process ids for anything asterisk and typing kill (process id) enter.

I did this with Asterisk 11.7.0 Apparently if you're using 11.22 or newer you won't need to do these steps.

The google voice connection issues began on or around 2016-06-21 at least for me.

Regarding 3:10 in the video:
You definitely need to stop Asterisk before recompiling (make / make install), but you don't want to use 'kill' to kill the processes to do so. Instead, use:

amportal stop (FreePBX 2.11 or FreePBX 12)

or

fwconsole stop (FreePBX 13)

After recompiling, you can restart Asterisk with:

amportal start (FreePBX 2.11 or FreePBX 12)

or

fwconsole start (FreePBX 13)
