Is there a way to disable notifications for phone and voicemail? I havnt found a straight answer, being that I don't need either, deaf, I want to disable it entirely. But I see no option forr it. Its the stock phone. I use handcent sms app. I herd a lil that google talk or voice will disable notifications? But also once read it can mess up handcent sms? Forgive me if I'm wrong. Any help would be great.

So I've integrated my Sprint Number with Google Voice - Cool. I like it. Mostly it's awesome to be able to sit at my computer and text\call people from a number they actually recognize. And being a flash addict, and yet someone who also wants to keep ALL my texts, it is quite useful.
Anyways when I first integrated, every incoming text would give me two notifications, one from Voice and one from default SMS app. I did something - changed a setting - I'm not sure, probably on the desktop side of things, but now I'm only receiving texts in Voice. They aren't showing up at all in my SMS app. Can someone help a noob out? I appreciate it!
I haven't used the integration, but what if you try to re-set it up and disable the text feature?

Sigh One day I'll learn to think outside the box! I have to wait 15 minutes after disabling to enable, but I'll let you know if it worked. It may not, because the settings may be stored server side and kept regardless of disabling, but I will soon see. Thanks.
So, messages are now showing up in SMS app again, so thats good, but I'm getting the double notifications again. Does anyone know how to disable text notifications for Voice? Also, I told voice that I wanted to route all calls through it - I've changed my mind haha. How do I change that setting?

Well for google voice, I don't know how to, since I don't use the text feature, but in chomp, you can simply go to the notification settings and disable them, and you'll only see them on chomp.

to disable text notifications, you will also have to disable voicemail notifications. just enable text/email notification for voicemail

Ahhh. Well thats not clear in the least bit. If the notification feature is tied to both voicemail and text they should label it as such. But still thats an annoyingly stupid limitation. Surely they understand why someone, and I would guess most people, would like a voicemail notification, but not two sms notifications. /rant
Anyways, thanks for the help! Also for my other little problem about setting up all calls through gVoice, I just happened to stumble on a widget that switched that... still don't know where the setting to change it is though.
Voice took over everything and i didnt like it. I didnt even want voice to do it, but somehow it did. The only way i could figure out how to get back the option of what number to dial out from (google or cell) was to find older version of voice and install.
Ok for some reason when I recieve a voicemail it no longer gives me the notification at the taskbar that I recieved a voicemail.
Instead it texts me that I recieved a voicemail but it doesn't actually text me whats in the voicemail.
I can't figure out why these settings changed. Why did it stop telling me that I have a voicemail in the notification bar.
I recently downloaded Handcent SMS but the problem started way before I downloaded the app.
I checked the messaging settings and can't find anything. I also checked Handcent SMS settings to see if I can find something for voicemail notifications. No success in either.
Before I downloaded Handcent sms I didn't get any type of notification just a missed call. When I just checked my voicemail one day I had 8 voicemails...
1. Where can I find the settings to give me a notification in the taskbar when I recieve a voicemail?
2. Also in my voicemail how come I can't set the system standard greeting? I have to leave a personal greeting. Is there anyway I can get the system standard greeting?
Probably google voice

What are you trying to tell me.
Is there a setting in google voice that I can turn on to have the notification in the taskbar? and to shut it off from sending me a text?
What about the personal greeting?
Did you go to www.google.com/voice and click on your number on the top right-hand side and look at the settings? Under the phones tab you can tell it to send you a text when you get voicemail. Under the voicemail & Text tab you can change the greeting to System Standard, and Transcribe voicemails.
Do the new ICS roms restore the option to set certain contacts to always go directly to voicemail? This is a feature I have missed ever since I upgraded from my Moment running 2.2.
I know I can create a "silent" ringer, but I don't even want to see certain numbers calling... Like that damn window company that calls every week trying to get me to buy their windows!

You will need a Call Blocker app that can filter SMS and Voice calls.
I have tried everything I know to stop the texts from 9016, but they keep coming. When I was having network issues, I installed google voice, but since its been removed I keep getting these. I turned the notifications off in google voice before I deleted it, I have tried sending a recorded message to [email protected] or whatever, I have tried sending a message to myself. I have tried blocking text via sprints website, I have tried blocking texts via the text blocker app built into the phone.....anyone help?

100 views and no info?
call Sprint customer service or maybe tech support. I've personally got no idea what a 9016 text is, so it's possible that no one else here knows either.
Go to the market and install mycalculator by chirpapps and put in 9016

black list the number..
go sms has the ability
along with many other security apps
just block it.
the 9016 is something to do with google voice having to forward your calls to get voicemails. Once I removed google voice, i continue to get the 9016 message, along with the notification from the voicemail app

I'm assuming you have a 3rd party sms/mms. Go into your third party settings and make sure "disable stock notifications" is NOT checked. Head over to your stock sms/mms and disable notifications.
If that doesn't work, uninstall your 3rd party and reinstall. When installing don't disable stock notifications if prompted to.

Subscribe to voicemail text transcription then unsubcribe. It might take a couple of days but it will stop
9016 is a related to visual voicemail voice to text service. A rom has to block it at a java level if doesnt include working visual voicemail. I had this issue on htc evo. Or yes blacklist it.

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
