Hello, I was wondering if anyone else is missing the backup assistant on this ROM?
Also, the voicemail tab within the messaging app is gone and I can't figure out how to check it without manually dialing *86 every time... Help?
Also, when I dialed ##3282 and entered edit mode, there is a ton of Sprint garbage in there....I did download the Dinc ROM, so this is very strange to me... Any ideas why Sprint info and addresses are in there?
Thanks !
The VM tab in the messaging app was for Visual Voice mail and that is not in the ROM. You can dial voice mail in the dialer by pressing and holding the 1 . That is the speed dial for voice mail.
The sprint stuff is because the ROM came from a sprint based phone. All the important VZW stuff is changed. That is also why BA is not part of the ROM.

Guys so a few nights ago I gave up trying to get VVM to work on CM7 nightly and moved to google voice. Some how one thing or another happened and I got the little voicemail icon at the top of the screen. I mistakenly dialed my own number and setup a pin for voicemail. Now when someone calls my phone and if i dont answer it says "could not complete your call" and they dont get my voicemail box.
I have tried wiping and flashing a sense rom no dice
I flashed a sense rom and sent the [email protected] and it did nothing
How can i get voicemail back onto my phone without having to dial in?

I'd stick with google voice personally. I've used both sprint VVM and google voice and google voice wins hands down. Just make sure you setup google voice mail correctly though, got setting>call>voicemail service. set that to google voice then goto voicemail settings and click voicemail number, it should then have you call a number to activate the service and after about 3 seconds it'll hang up automatically. you should be set! goto google.com/voice and setup all the different preferences. Best I can do, goodluck

to get sprint vvm to work on cm7 you need to flash back to a rom where vvm worked. try it out to make sure it still works, the back it up with titanium back up.
then nand back to cm7 and restore the vvm app.
everything should now work fine
So far I have tried:
Flashing Stock Sense and trying voicemail. Still isnt working, when someone calls me and if i decline the call or miss it, they are presented with a "cannot complete your call" as if i no longer have a voicemail box
Completely Wiped and used Format All, flashed Sense. Same issue, no one can leave me a message. Installed and activated Google Voice, same issue
Tried this on AOSP as well same issues as above.
Anyone ever seen this issue?
So i think im not being clear really as the few replies have been items i have tried
Basically I can no longer access my voicemail through google voice or sprint visual voice mail
I have to dial my number, enter a pin and go through the voicemail as if this wasnt a smart phone. When someone tries to leave a voicemail they get a message "could not complete your call"
any way i can fix this or do i need to go to sprint to have them reset my voicemail? Do i need to go into voicemail settings and setup a forwarding number?

ok ok its something messed up with your voice mail, not the phone.
id call sprint.
In Google Voice, when I click on "Deactivate Google Voicemail from this phone", it tells me to dial *38 from my EVO. It may be the code that changes voicemail conditional forwarding back to Sprint. Maybe you could try that?

You have to go to google voice and remove your phone and all should then work
dial *38 that stops your calls from being forwarded to google voice.
if you want to use google voice you have to go through the settings for google voice and dial the number it tells you to so it will forward after so many rings. as for the voice mail icon in cm7 there is a setting for voice mail notifications that you can turn off and you will not get it every time you reboot. if you are using google voice you dont need the notification set.

THANK YOU SO MUCH! that reset my voicemail and its working THANK YOU AGAIN SOOOOOO MUCH
Hi this just started happening recently. I don't know what's going on because I didn't flash a new rom or anything. I'm running Warm 2point2 version 5 from January.
Anyway, my visual voicemail was working a few days ago. however, now I keep getting text messages saying
//ANDROID: 2123314140 has sent you a Sprint Voice Message. Call 408-970-0000 to listen. MMSN, 165690d00, 2086, V69zLlbixvi//CM
Has this happened to anyone else and why?? Thanks for any help.
That sounds like Google Voice. Have you used that? You'll need to go to Google's website on a computer, sign in, go to "Voice" and go to settings.
Hm I've used Google Voice before and had issues and I brought it into Sprint and they fixed it for me. I thought I was rid of Google Voice already! Hmm so what do you do in settings? All it gives me is billing and account, to change it to english or the time zone =/. How do I rid myself of Google Voice once and for all???
I had this happen too out of the blue. It's not google voice. It is either Handcent SMS or Go SMS Pro. I have Go SMS and what I did to solve it was uncheck the box in Settings>receive Settings> Disable other message notification. That solved it for me.
All sprint probably did was uninstall the app. Trust me, I've made the comment of Google voice taking over your phone like Cyberdyne before lol.
Anyways, go to Google and log in. Go to "voice." Go to settings, manage phones, or numbers, or something line that. You have to uncheck your phone number to finally break the link. If you can't find it I'm sure somebody can explain it a little clearer lol.
It wouldn't hurt to check your settings in handcent, if use it. However, if you have not actually fonder to Google's website on the computer, and unlinked your phone number, then you have not really really escaped yet.
Hi this is Jack Diemer, the voicemail product manager at Sprint. It looks to me like you Visual Voicemail did not provisioned. You are receiving the voicemail, but the client does not know what to do with it, so it is giving you the SMS user experience as if you were not a Visual Voicemail subscriber. Try these steps.
Make sure that no 3rd Party Apps are affecting Visual Voicemail (such as any SMS, MMS, TaskKiller, Handcent app)
Next…..
1. Go to dial pad and hit *38 Talk to cancel any call forwarding.
2. Power off the device and remove and replace the battery and power back on.
3. Update profile by hitting Menu – Settings – System Updates – Update profile (try to leave yourself a VM)
4. Go into the visual voicemail application and compose a visual voicemail message (Hit Menu - Compose) of 5+ seconds and send to [email protected]m.sprint.com
5. Test to see if visual voicemail is working again, and if the top 4 items above do not solve the issue, I recommend you call *2 and talk to a Sprint Customer Care Representative.
Thanks for all the responses!! AliLaPointe was right; it was my GO SMS -_______-. I just had to disable the "disable other text notifiications" to get my voicemail working again. Does that mean you'll have to just live with multiple text messages to get your visual voicemail?
And voicemail guy thanks for the advice. Is it true you can send a voicemail as opposed to leaving one (i.e. you compose a message and record it and then send it to them? How does that work? is it like email but in voice format?"
ok, this has been driving me nuts. It is my Handcent SMS, that is messing up visual voicemail. I dont know how why or when they put a part of this program in to cause this text message notifications to come instead of my VVM, but I HATE IT! Uninstalled Handcent and all works like it is supposed to.
Any ideas of how to get handcent to work as it did just a week ago? I did not get an update that I know of.
Also if you hit #2 when you dial that weird number ending in all 0000s, it will say that you will receive all voicemails to the phone. I dont know if that works or not as I am not going to install Handcent again.

Thank you voicemailguy....you've saved me. When I called sprint about this exact issue. The only hope they had for me was to do a hard reset...I don't think so. I truly think for my case I had a little of both issues my Go SMS pro was enabled and vvm wsa not activated. Thanks again for alleviating my frustrations.
***** FIXED ***** CALLED AT&T TO RESET VOICEMAIL ***** PLEASE REMOVE THREAD *****
I am using a stock GSM GNex, unrooted, and I noticed, when I receive calls, the caller does not go to voicemail and when I attempt to check voicemail, I am told that I do not have a voicemail box. This is a new problem, because before, I had voicemail and I set it up using AT&T. When I long press the number "1" on the dial pad I get a recording that says to enter the phone number of the party you are trying to reach. I enter my phone number and it says that the number is not listed. I can receive and make calls to anyone no problem, but voicemail all of a sudden stopped working. I went into the phone settings and checked the phone number listed as my voicemail number, it is not the same as my regular phone number, so I changed it to my number and I was getting a busy signal when I tried to check my voicemail after that. Any ideas??? I don't think calling AT&T will do me any good as they think I am using a Galaxy S2 Skyrocket. Please help, I need to get voicemails if I don't get to the phone in time!!
Thanks
I'm not sure how to fix your problem but, have you tried google voice as your voicemail client? Maybe you can use that instead.
To be honest I want to fix the issue and I don't want to use Google Voice. When I did a search before posting this I read a lot of people were using that service, but I want to get the real problem fixed. Thanks though.
Does anyone think the problem could be because I have a Galaxy S2 Skyrocket as my main phone on my plan, and that phone uses visual voicemail? And somehow now the phone won't activate voicemail because of that? When I dial my number and call myself, I get a busy tone.
1) Your VM number is either incorrectly programmed into the phone, or whoever set up your account didn't provision you with the VM feature. Call your carrier, they can verify with you whether your phone is correct or it's their system. No one on XDA can't help you with a shortcut.
2) Get Google Voice. Carrier VM systems are utter crap by comparison. That is the "real" solution to your "real problem".
The voicemail number is the same as it was when I set it up the first time. BTW, using Google Voice is not the "real" solution to my "real problem". If you don't know the answer to the question or you think no one else here will, you don't have to emphasize your love of Google Voice, I just don't want to use it so I am trying to figure out how to fix it. Thank you.
Oh, and maybe you should change your user name if you hate AT&T so much.
I have been jumping from different versions of ICS roms and was unhappy with all the bugs. Somewhere along the line sprint vvm stopped working. I decided to odin back to stock el29 with root. Sprint vvm still doesn't work. I also don't get any notification of my voice mails. I can get voice mails by holding down the #1 key, but have no idea if I have any. How can this happen on a stock el29 rom? I did try out google voice and it works, but i just like sprints better. Could google voice be blocking something? Also, last week people were telling me that my caller id was showing some strange number instead of mine. Any thoughts at all???
*edit*
I also updated my prl and profile after the odin to el29 still no go.
Sounds like you've linked your number with Google voice. You have to unlink it to get vvm working. Try Google.com/voice to get to settings

That was it. Thanks man!
I am having the same problem, no voice mail. I'm not with Sprint I'm on Ting. I have the Google Voice app on my phone. I wanted to use it mainly to do free texting and therefor I don't have my voice or voice mail routed through GV. I cannot unlink my cellphone from GV (Google won't let me) but my phone is not activated on GV.
Edit:
After looking on my account for my carrier I found a settings page that had different options for my phone and voicemail wasn't checked off so I checked it and now I have voicemail.
Does anyone know what phone.apk i can use to get my voicemail ... running boostmobile... thanks
Hi all, I've been asking around on AC forums and haven't got an answer yet, but going to see if tomorrow I can get to an ATT store for tech help. No help on the phone at all, just 3 different Tech reps going over the same thing again and again, with no result. Tried third party apps Google Voice and Youmail, can't even get the access codes to go through. The phone seems to be having errors, because it's looking for the Verizon Voicemail and even though I was able to set speed dial #2 for dialing ATT's Voicemail service, all I get is Missed Call notifications. Not every missed call leaves a voicemail, so would like some sort of Notification to alert me to my voicemails. Need this feature a lot. When I dial the access codes or even try changing to the ATT voicemail their Way with Holding down "1" , all i get is Call can't be completed and an error code. Also a message at the top of keypad screen saying No Sim, Sim Error. To me it seems like it's trying to dial the Verizon number, and it can't because of being on ATT. Has anyone had this problem?
Does anybody know a workaround. I was able to get google voice forwarded to my cell phone number, but doesn't still give a notification. I do get emails sent, even though send a text is clicked on Google Voicemail. Also spent time with their tech support with no help there. Notifications is Set and I have an alert for it on the Phone's Voicemail setting, so that's not working either. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
You can set att voicemail to speed dial 1. I don't know the number. I just downloaded att visual voicemail app and got it to work. In order to set voicemail you need to go to settings>aplications>call>voicemail settings. Then input the number you're trying to use. It will save it as speed dial #1
