I noticed that i could log into goggle voice and get my text messages but i would rather not used it anymore and i cant figure out that answering system thanks guys i would highly apreciate your help
I had the same issue. Went you integrate Google Voice it will automatically intercept your sms, along with calls. If you use a computer and go to Google and sign into Voice you will be able to modify your settings there. That or download the Google Voice app, sign in and sign out. That allowed me to use the native sms app
I tried signing in and out of the app but still doesn't do it anytime someone calls me I slide screen to answer then voice setting ask to press the #1key to answer or#2 to voicemailthis setting is really annoying I can't get rid of it

[Q] Google voice (cannot return calls)

I use Google voice as my voice mail. After changing to cm7 I cannot return calls that come in through Google Voice. Example: Someone calls and leaves a voice mail. I listen to the voice mail then attempt to call them back. When I select menu and call, the phone attempts to dial but never starts to ring. After 30-60 seconds I here busy signals. I can manually type the number into the dialer but this is not ideal. Any idea as to why I cannot press the call button in google voice to call back numbers who left a voice mail message?
Thank you!
Do you get a +1 in front of the number? I had that problem before too and eventually came to an error message. I wish I could recall how I fixed it, but double check that to make sure you're not dialing too much.
The main reason I don't use Google Voice is because it requires a 3G signal in order to place or receive a call, that might be your problem- not sure. Never heard of a Google Voice issue specific to CM7, I think the problem may be in another area- but I'm not sure.

Evo Voicemail setup

Ok before says that there is a thread out there I searched and searched for the answer or something related to my problem.
Quick Reference:
1) Upgraded to KingsRom (latest version)
2) Setup Google Voice mail
3) Not receiving voice mail alerts
4) Want to set the Sprint Visual Voice mail app back up
I had CM7 and I updated to the Kingsrom ( Gingerbread Rom), I had Google Voice as the voice mail in CM7 but had the same problem. Now if someone was to call me I wouldn't get the call but they would be sent to my voice mail. When I log into my Gmail I see the notification that someone left me a VMail, but I don't see it on my phone. So now I want to switch it back to the Visual Voice Mail system and leave as that. I went into the setting for Google Voice and switched it back to my phone but it is still not sending callers to the voicemail. It still goes to the Googlevoice inbox.
Somone please help me figure this out cause I have important calls that I need to respond if they leave a voicemail.
P.S. Also I notice that people call but it doesn't show up as a call, if they leave a message it will show up in the Goggle Voice Inbox.

Google Voice with Sprint Integration without Texts through Gvoice

So you want Google Voice on your Evo but you don't want your texts to come through Google Voice. Well here is what you need to do to get this to work.
1,) Download Google Voice from the Android Market
2.) Open Google Voice and go ahead and set everything up the way you want. Sprint integration will be automatic there is no stopping this. Let it ride through but it will delete all your Sprint Voicemails so make sure you have nothing important.
3.) So now all your texts are coming through Google Voice and you are sitting there frantic. Well here is what you do to allow just voicemails to be handled.
4.) Go into you google voice account on your computer. You can get to the website through Google by searching Google Voice. You login is the same as your Gmail
5.) Go up in to the top right corner and click on the thing that looks like a gear and go to Voice Settings.
6.) You will see a page with your google voice number and your mobile number and then you have two options.
7.) You will see a link down by the edit and delete buttons and it should say activate Google voicemail on your phone. Click this and it should bring a screen up saying call a number which should be *28+your google voice number. You want to go into you call pad and call this number. This enables call forwarding to the voicemail if you hang up or don't answer a call. If successful you will hear two beeps and then it will hang up. You will now recieve your voicemails through Google Voice .
8.) Now to get rid of that pesky texting.
9)You will see a link next to the Sprint logo that says Disable Google Voice on your Sprint phone.
10.) You need to click this link but sometimes Google won't let you do it for around 15 min. Just be patient and check it again in about 15 min and click it.
11.) It will now say Enable Google Voice on your sprint phone. You should be good now and you will only receive voicemail's through Google Voice and your texts will resume through you MMS app.
12.) If you are rooted you can go ahead and delete the Sprint VVM app now.
There is my tutorial. I know there has been a good amount of debate on this topic and people getting pissed at google which I was too. They should have the option right below you number:
Receive Texts
Receive Voicemails
but of course they don't. Anyways enjoy stock texting and Google Voice voicemail.
Great post with clear directions!! I'll give it a try
How do you revert back if there are problems??

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You simply go down to deactivate Google voicemail on this phone and it will give you a number *38 to call. Once you call that it will beep twice and you can go back to using SprintVVM.

Calls going straight to Voicemail - On a phone call or on no call 75% of time Help!

Hey Guys!
First I read the other threads and they were no help. I am coming from a Rooted Note 3 and all I can say is I wish the Note 3 OS had not updated since I NEVER would have purchased this Note 4.
My issue is as follows:
1. When I am on a Voice call 75-90% of the time my phone goes straight to Voicemail . This happens if another person call even when my phone has 0 calls and I have a full signal. Call waiting does not pick up, nor do I get a beep / msg.
2. This is my second brand new Note 4 from Verizon as I had the same issue with the first phone. I have not re-installed Google Voice, however, I did not notice one issue. On my Note 3 when a call came into the phone and I did not pick up, Google Voice would ring while I was in Gmail. For some odd reason on my Note 4 this does not occur. Is this the culrpit? If so how do I fix Google Voice to Ring my GMAIL? Is it possible the new rollout of Google Hangouts disabled the ability to ring your computer Gmail Google Voice if your phone (Note 4) does not pick up/ you are busy. All I get is a Google Voice Missed Call
3. Every call after about 1 hr gets dropped and then I can get no calls until I reboot my phone / Give it a good few minutes. At this point I get bombarded with incoming data (Facebook/whatsapp/emails). I used to have Facebook set to a 3 hr Refresh interval but it seems now Facebook deleted this option. Anyone have fix for this to test?
Really would appreciate any help
