Hey guys, did anyone manage to get the Vlingo car mode to read back text messages or emails? Could you post your configurations from settings > voice input and output > voice recognition choice? Mine isn't saying anything. I have Go SMS messenger if that helps.
Just started looking into it myself and it seems that Vlingo doesn't work well with third-party messengers. I also have Go SMS and not only will it not read or write texts in it, when I say "open Go SMS" it opens messenger.
Yep found that out the hard way you have to have stock messenger only fourth it to work.

I have been a long time user of the sprint voicemail app. I have decided to go ahead and stick with Google Voice after trying it out. I went thru the procedure and have it integrated with my sprint phone now. My question is can I go ahead and uninstall/remove the sprint voicemail app or is it still needed?
It is not needed. Assuming you are rooted I would back it up using titanium backup just in case you want it back in the future before you remove it. Or you could just freeze it
Thanks for the info. I removed the stock app. I have one other question now. Since I integrated google voice with sprint, all of my text messages are going to google voice now. How can I stop that so that I can use handcent again?
I've always used GV as well, and I've always uninstalled Sprint's Voicemail app with no problems. I tried doing that Sprint/Google Voice integration, but like you said all your messages come through to GV and I was unable to switch this back. I even emailed their support and never heard back...I've switched back to the non-integrated installation and haven't had any problems.
Try going to settings, then manage applications and find Google voice. Once you find it try hitting "clear defaults". Now go to your people app or contacts and select a random contact and find the option to send a text. There should be a pop up that ask you which application you want to text through and choose always use the stock sms app.

After doing some searching I have found that once you integrate sprint to google voice you cannot use any other app for the text messaging regardless of what you select as your default.

Glad I didn't integrate mine yet! I love the idea of having 2 separate numbers linked to the same phone that share the same voicemail lol. I pass out my gv number alot because I don't want certain people to have my regular number. #winning

can someone tell me why Google Voice has taken over my text messaging? how do I get it to stop? I went to Google Voices site but could not find any way to stop it.
I had same problem, called sprint tech support, you have to be unrooted and call from another line not your phone, they give you codes to put in your dialer then your good to go. Good luck!

No need to unroot, if you set up your Google Voice with Sprint Integration this is a "feature" of that. I went went to google.com/voice and completely got rid of my Google voice acct, then on my phone I uninstalled the app. After that's all done to back to google.com/voice and set up a new account with a different number then your cell phone. After you set up a different num D/L Google voice from the market and this time when it asks if you wanna integrate your account click 'skip' and just use Google voice for your default voice mail.

it sends your voice to google to analyse it and sends back the text.
open the google voice app on your phone. goto sync and notifications. uncheck Inbox Notifications, and check text messages. Should be just like normal. You will then get a text message when there is a voicemail which you can open up the google voice app to listen to it.

Did you set it to be your default sms app?
Go to Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Google Voice,
then scroll down to the area "Launch by Default" and clear the defaults.
[Q] SMS messages are only going to Google Voice, and bypassing "Messages." Why?
I have my Google Voice integrated with my Sprint phone number. Normally, if somebody texts me, it shows up in Google Voice, Messages, Handcent, and whatever other messaging app I have installed. I just configure the notifications as I like them, so that I'm only notified by 1.
Ever since I installed Synergy, incoming messages only go to my google voice app. They don't show up in "messages."
If I send a message from "messages," then the outgoing message also shows up in google voice. But any reply I receive will also only show up in google voice. It's like only google voice works for incoming messages now.
This is still true if I uninstall google voice from my phone. I can only send. Not receive.
Please, someone out there give me some advice. I'd rather use the native app and just use GV for my desktop.
Uninstall Google voice.
Then redownload it.
When you run it for first time, br sure to skip the sprint integration at the very beginning. Now you should be back to normal

Settings -> Sync and Notifications -> Check Text notifications.
Or go to voice.Google.com and change it from there.

Can someone please help me out? I can send text messages and all but I only receive them with Google voice for some reason. I've looked everywhere for the settings to change it to the default application for texting but can't find anything =/

Go to the website and delete the account. Then when you make a new one don't combine it with your sprint account.

Looks like that worked out for me. Thanks a lot man =)
Also when using google voice, in the setup don't choose the use a text client.

You can integrate Google Voice and still use your stock messaging app (or whatever app you want). That way you keep the other functionality of Google Voice if you want it. The only problem is you'll have to receive voicemail notifications via text instead of a status bar notification. Google Voice does not give you an option to be notified of voicemails only . Here's how you do it:
Once you have Google Voice setup with Sprint integration...
1. Open Google Voice and press settings.
2. Select "Sync and notifications".
3. Uncheck "Inbox Notifications".
-Yes, this will cause Google Voice to no longer give you status bar notifications
4. Check "Text messages" to tell Google Voice to notify you of voicemails via text message. It will warn you that you will get duplicate notifications, but you can just click "Ok" because you're not going to.
5. This last step is very important - Go to voice.google.com -> voice settings and click "edit" by your google voice enabled phone number. Make sure the box that says "Receive text messages on this phone" is checked.
So I apparently signed in to google voice (used it long ago for an aosp ROM) and I now I get duplicate texts. I've signed out of the app....didn't help. I also went to the google voice page on my desktop and into settings, phone, and tried to unselect my number but it says I have to have at least one forwarding number.
Does anyone know how to turn this off? And why the hell do they make it so difficult to not use their product???

Turn off texts in the Google Voice settings.
Under what tab in settings? I can't find an option anywhere. I only see a box to check for a text notification for new voicemail. This box is already unchecked though.
open the google voice app on your phone go to settings>sync and notifications> receive text messages and select also via messaging app
for me when i have google voice ticked it goes to both so i hope this works for u
Thanks guys.I also had an app called "cold shoulder" that was giving me multiple texts.
