[Q] dial 1 to accept call - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When receaving a call I get a voice message saying that there is a call from ----- press 1 to accept the call press 2 to go to voicemail. I am using google voice.
Are there any sugestions. I've gone to settings in "call", "google voice" ect.

Go to GV on your computer and go to settings. There's an option to turn off call screening.

Make sure to set that as the default on all groups, unless there are groups which you wish to have call screening.

WOOOOOW thanks for this. I've used google voice for a while and i have no idea why it just started doing that recently but it was driving me nuts.

What is the point of using Google voice instead of just regular? I apology for my ignorance.

It will write it in text. I see a use for it only when using a nexus device, which doesnt have sprint voicemail

I like that it saves all your text and voice messages online, and it is extremely easy to reply to messages from your computer.

Ever wish u had a second # u could give out? Want to be able to screen calls or listen in while someone is leaving u a vm? Wish some folks calls would just go to a spam folder & never ring ur cell? Wish u had an app that did all of this & gave u a second phone #? If u answered yes to any of these then u need a GV account.
Hope that helped.

Lmao you're a good advertiser. Can I get that using the account using the phone? I think I already have a GV but I didn't get a #. I'm slightly confused but I understand the awesomeness of what you said.

If u never completed setup of Ur fb account just go to Google.com/voice & complete the account setup to get Ur #. Once u've done that simply go to the market & download the gv app & set it up.

I guess I should have mentioned if you don't see an error message then it worked. To re-enable it is *28 and your google voice number.

You need to deactivate GV if you want VZW voicemail back.
Sent from my ADR6350 using XDA App
i had done all of that as stated
*73 was supposed to be the deactivation code for VZ how ever i was only getting an error
the answer for me was
*900 and
*920
i both of those and it worked like a charm. you have to end the call fowarding and those were the only codes that worked
but i thank both of you for your help and suggestions.

Help! I can't answer my phone!

Ok when I am getting a phone call, it is asking me if I want to answer and to click 1 or 2 etc but before I can do that it hangs up on the caller. I think it's probably Google Voice doing this, but it never did it before. I need google voice, i use it for my voicemail. I run CM7 and it doesn't even have a VVM program. But I can't keep hanging up on everyone who calls me! What can I do?
Go to your google voice settings from your browser. One of the options is to disable the prompt.
To be exact,you should disable call screening

Also you can find vvm if you need it from this thread if you would like to use it instead,

How do you get rid of annoying new voicemail in notification says I got a new voicemail but I don't its stuck ics skyrocket port

I have the same annoying problem..I read that if you call and leave a message on that voicemail it will go away if you delete the message you just left. My problem is that I use Google Voice for my voicemail. I cant figure out how to stop using GV! Even if i uninstall the app , it leaves the message in my google mail box. I have looked for answers but nothing...Unbelievable ! Good luck, I hope you dont have google voice.....

check your vm provider in call settings. also, if you enabled google voicemail on your number, it probably needs to be disabled in your voice account.

Unable to get Google voice to work

I've used Google voice for years, but last week I accidentally set up the AT&T voicemail password and since then I can't get Google voice to take over again.
Would I need to contact AT&T about disabling their voicemail service?

Thanks a bunch! I had the same problem and this fixed it right up.
Alternatively (although not as easy), you can go into the Call settings, Additional settings, and then the Call forwarding settings and set up the Google Voice number there.

I tried your method yesterday but whenever I'd call myself from another number, I'd hear a short message n the call would end... Idk if this is the app, the service or at&t at fault
