How can I get visual voice mail on MIUI? I do not like having to dial to get my voice mails. Weird, I know. I did a search, but could not find anything for the Evo.

You can get the visual voicemail feature through Google Voice - free. It will guide you through setting up conditional forwarding so that it goes to your google voice voicemail. You can download the Google Voice app from the market to see transcriptions and also play your vmails directly like VVM.

Thanks. I am going to try to set it up, but I like Sprint VM because I am used to it and it is simple.

Thanks man. I am looking over that web site and I am impressed.
Sprint VVM on Miui/AOSP
Here. Flash this file from recovery. No need to wipe anything. Then use the free version of Super Private Conversation from the market to block the annoying texts (just blacklist 9016).
Before flashing the VVM file I would be sure your inbox is empty first. I've used this method since my Hero on AOSP and it works on Miui as well.
I can confirm that Sprint VVM works just fine on MIUI. Been using it since I flashed MIUI in November and have not had a single issue.
I just flashed that voicemail zip over miui because i love Sprint visual voicemail.
Works great, thank you!

I hate the old voicemail system found in Nexus. Any way to install sprint's voicemail system where I can download the voice mails and delete them from my touch screen?
Switch to Google Voice, or wait for Sprint to get their VVM updated.
Thanks! I guess there is no apk taht we can use that is compatible with nexus atm huh? that stinks.
Use Google Voice. It doesn't stink. In fact, carrier VM apps positively reek compared to GV.
i think you guys misunderstood me. I wasn't saying that voice stinks but the fact that nexus doesn't have vvm stinks lol.
But thanks will look into the voice.

Since you're with Sprint, it's easy to integrate your Sprint phone number into your google voice number. It's great because you can then text from voice.google.com on a PC and they show up as your cell number. It also lists all of your texts, which are searchable and always 'backed' up. The google voice app is just like a visual voicemail app. You can see a list of voice mails and delete/archive/listen to whatever you want. It's the one thing I miss since switching to Verizon.

You can still use Google Voice with Verizon. Basically, you configure your Verizon voicemail to forward to your Google Voice number, and then you configure Google Voice to send calls from your Verizon number straight to voicemail.
It's a more complicated set up process than you'd go through with Sprint, but its not bad. The only thing you lose with Verizon compared to Sprint is the ability to send texts the the GV website and have it look like they come from your phone. Instead, they'll use your GV number.

I fully understood what you were saying, and then indicating it was irrelavent. You don't use carrier VM with an Android device. You can get a superior GV experience. Hell, I switched from T-Mo to Verizon without having to re-setup my voicemail. All my old messages are still on file. That's convenience.
If u foward ur voiceail to google does sprint charge still for fowards and im on zero premium plan

Right out of the box?
AT&T needs to turn it on first.
Start app.
It will call your voice mail.
then enter pin.

Okay, so when I activate my device, do I need to call ATT to turn it on?
I thought its a paid feature? Just use Google Voice instead
Google Voice did not seem to be working on my phone. Anyone able to get it working on theirs, or is there some issue with Google Voice and the S3 for now?
AT&T Messages
you need to get AT&T Messages from the Google Play Store you will get all you message, Voicemail, and calls in one spot.
From the main/home screen go two screens to the left and click on the AT&T Messages icon. It will walk you through the setup as mentioned above. I believe it specifically states the service is free (as it should be).
Now my question is why didn't they put this on the main/home screen? Why not make it the default? Who wouldn't want VVM?

There is already a thread about google voice's voice mail. You just have to dial a number to activate it. On mine it still says Carrier Voice mail, but my missed calls actually go to google's voice mail.
I went to the Play Store and downloaded AT&T's Visual Voicemail app. That worked well.

OK so we have two choices for VVM. Does anyone have enough experience to compare the pros and cons of each?

Visual Voice mail is great for voice mail. Really nice app. Love it.
AT&T messages combines text, voice mail, ect. rendering your regular messaging app useless or getting double notifications, and you can't turn them off from the at&t app. (it is basically the devil. And I made just to disable it as soon as I got the phone.)
Just my .02

I'm pretty unimpressed with this. I don't know why, but it bugs me to have to manually type in my google VM number to each forward field.

that's why you call the # code.
art vvm app is OK, but Google voice has a cleaner look and operation. neither is intuitive to set up though so read the directions.
att messages is terrible and should be disabled or uninstalled or nuked from orbit.
No matter what I do I can't get att visual voicemail to work. The app tells me that it is has not received a response from att. I've called att and my account is set up correctly but the app still doesn't work so I just gave up and use YouMail.
Ok, I really want to use the latest roms but AT&T's visual voicemail program does not work on TW 4.1+ roms. Can anyone suggest other visual voicemail programs that are robust and clean? Don't want to use google voice. All suggestions are appreciated. And thanks!

Could always try Youmail. Why are you against Google Voice?

I'm on ATT and could never get Google voice to connect to my voice-mail provider. I've tried it on a couple different roms...same outcome. After being dissapointed so many times, I just gave up and stuck with the default. I used Youmail back when I had an iPhone and it worked great though; I'll have to give it a try.:good:

you need to speak with an at&t rep and have them change your forwarding number to your Google voice number. Just be up front, tell them that you want to use Google voice, they will take care of it. I've been using Google voice for my voice mail for over a year now...
Works great..never had an issue...

You can actually do this yourself. In your dialer, hit menu, then settings. Go to call forwarding, and set it as such:
Always forward - Disabled
The other 3 set your Google Voice number, as +1xxxxxxxxxx with xxxxxxxxxx as your phone number. No dashes, no spaces.
Alternatively, you can absolutely call AT&T for this.
Afterwards, set your voicemail to google voice (also in dialer settings) and set google voice to auto sync. Done.
I just successfully updated to CM11 and I no longer have a voicemail app and I can't seem to find a way to check voicemail (I left myself one, so I know one should be there.) I tried reading and searching, but couldn't find anything.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Ok, well I found the voicemail apk , but now I can't stop getting the 9016 text. URGH! Looking around it looks like blacklisting is the best option? I don't use google voice, but I do you hangouts for sms.

I've never had any luck getting a VM app to work on any of the custom ROMS I've tried as it would work on TouchWiz. To access my VM on Sprint I call my own phone number. You can add a one touch dial widget to dail your phone number to make it a bit more automated.
I'd rec Google Voice. Works like a charm all the time...and isn't feature bricked like Sprint VVM. Oh yea and works on any ROM.
Thanks for advice It helped me, i switched to visual voicemail app though
Is anyone else having problems getting the native visual voicemail in the dailer to activate? I'm on T-Mobile and so far I've tried everything I can think of and the visual voicemail just won't activate.
Uninstall T-mobile's visual voicemail
Uninstall T-mobile's visual voicemail/ or any other visual voicemail app. When you open up the phone app it should pop up, you may have to reboot after uninstalling those apps but thats what it was for me.
I'm on Simple mobile (a T-Mobile MVNO) and I can't get theirs to work either. Support is no help.

I don’t have any other voicemail apps installed. I installed T-mobiles VVM app and it seems to activate fine. I uninstalled and tried the native Google VVM and again it fails to activate.

T-Mo seems to be working on things regarding VM. I received this text today.
wait... u can get voicemail in the phoneapp again? i thought that ended a while back... i was installing an old version of google voice for a whle to keep it in the phone app...
so, if i uninstall google voice i can get voicemail in the phone app? or do i have to go through this process?:
1. Uninstall the newer Google Voice (temporarily). Prior to uninstalling, I wipe the app's Cache and Data too as a precaution, so I can't report on the results of following these steps without doing that.
2. Go to the APKMirror website and download the latest Google Voice v4.x APK, something like v4.7.10.
3. With Unknown Sources checked in the Security Settings on your phone, install and fully setup the old Google Voice version, including setting your Phone app to use Google Voice for voicemails.
4. Once it's all setup, you can update Google Voice to your heart's content. Note that if you go into the Phone Voicemail settings you'll see that it still doesn't give you an option to select Google Voice, but you'll also notice that it appears as if the only setting it now shows (Carrier) is not selected either, so the setting is retained even though you can't select it with the newer Google Voice installed.
5. Re-disable "Unknown Sources" if you wish.
Whats the problem?
i cant get it to work on att, but i dont think it ever did. i was able to get the visual voicemail in the phone app, but not with a transcript... but i have to use the old google voice app. make sure to set te old google voice to use phone app for voicemail. when i updated google voice it stopped updating voicemails in the phone app, so i guess ill just keep the old google voice app.

Are you on Tmobile? If so, do you have voice to text add-on on your account?
Trying to figure out what the issue is because nothing seems to work for me.
Make sure that your phone is not forwarded to another messaging service. If you ever tried another voice messaging app, sometimes they do this automatically. If you forget to undo it then you will not receive voice messages. You can bring your messages back by disabling call forwarding. To do this, call ##004# for Tmo/Att or ##002# as a generic default that should work for all other US carriers. Verizon should be *73 and Sprint *730 .

Yes tmobile. Not sure if I have voice to text add on.
I'm starting to think this is a T-Mobile account settings issue. Does those who have it working I'd be interested in seeing if you have visual voicemail or voice to text enabled in your account settings.

On built in visual voicemail the transcription is done through Google and so you shouldn't need the T-Mobile add on any more, saves $4 a month.

I dont have it enabled either. But I do have the free visual voicemail add-on enabled in my account settings. Maybe thats interfering and needs to be disabled.

Well the carrier can disable this setting, but T-Mobile seems to be ok. I know AT&T does disable built in visual voicemail though.
