is this some sprint thing or something? i just switched from tmobile yesterday. everything is good except this is pretty annoying. when i get a call i slide the green answer tab then i hear some lady say "you have a call from ___ press 1 to accept". how do i just answer by sliding the green tab and not pushing 1 after?
Do you have google voice?.. that's what happened to me when I used it..
Tapatalkin' it from my Epic Touch 3g
I know right i hated that
I heard there was a way to disable it but i couldnt find it

i did have google voice but i deleted it because i thought it was the problem. i only use it for voicemail so it's no big deal. but it's still there.
H aha if only you could be me for a day, that crap gets so annoying. so I have a Nexus S 4G on Sprint and Bionic on Verizon. I installed Google Voice on my NS and didn't even go through the setup. I mean I have a number and account because I used to use Voice on my Eris. Anyways I installed, never opened the app and was having to press one to answer a call as well. Here is where life gets weird, every call I get on my Sprint phonE, my Verizon.Bionic rings as well and I can answer either phone for the exacT same phone call. Note that I havE never even installed Voice on my bionic. I'm sure I could easily fix it and Im pretty sure I know how without having to browse around but I am kind of having fun with it. I never know which of three phone numbers is calling/messaging it flip flops on me. Major issues lmao

well damn this is just stupid. i wonder if i can disable it in my google account or something. this is way too annoying to ignore.
You have to log in to your g-voice account and disable it there..

yup, i figured it out. thanks, i guess i could have tried that first.
lemonoid go onto your google account and go into voice, it's all right there.
Yea I figured Im just too lazy to do it right now but thanks for confirming it. I guess you could go into the app and change it to where it never uses voice or either it just asks for each call

There is a setting in google voice which you can disable... n you will no longer have to press 1 to accept ..
I dont know is above answers were on how to disable GV on phone, or how to change this exact setting
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
u have to go on ur computer to ur google voice site....in the settings some where is call acceptance
After its disabled make sure your voice mail works. 2 of my phones lost VM after getting rid of GV and the only way to get it back was through Sprint CS

Lol. That's Google voice working precisely as intended. Though it's a little surprising since, as far as I know, you have to set up forwarding numbers at voice.Google.Com ... Though I guess just installing the app might do that automatically.
Lol.

I cannot make calls but I can make calls with my EVO, but I can receive them. What is going on??????????? It worked earlier today and all of the sudden it just stopped!
I am also going through the same thing. I was able to make calls earlier today but now I can't. I do receive calls. Anyone else also experiencing this. Im using the Synergy rc1 supersonic rom. What rom are you using?
Are you getting any sort of error code when you try to call?
No just no dial tone. it hangs up after 20 seconds followed by beeps.
Seems like there are maj network errors going on. I had a ton of network busy errors, trying to make calls this week, and my buddy, with Verizon has had the same problem.
I would say this is probably a service issue. I am not rooted and the same thing is happening to me. I can receive calls, but not place calls. Just started happening this evening about 6:00ish. At least that's when I noticed it.

I think you are right. The google voice - sprint integration is the problem. I disable it and now it work perfectly. Thanks!
Yeah I had the same issue today, I called sprint and they killed the Google voice on there end and problem solved.
I don't have G voice, but still had the call problems
Swyped From The Hippest Phone Using XDA Premium
I am having the exact same issue, and it began sometime this last evening, about 7-9 hours ago. I have had Google Voice, but after upgrading from Hero to Evo on Wednesday, Google Voice can't locate my Sprint number to integrate it on the Evo, and so I cannot disable it, either, which prevents me from working the "easy" fix by removing it.
I did have a rooted Hero when I got GV, but I've yet to root the Evo, hoping Gingerbread keeps it running okay on stock. But this issue is persisting, and it doesn't matter to me if it's GV related or not, I don't want to have to send the device back.
I did call tech support, and did soft/hard resets and they refreshed the device and tier 2 tech resent services and it seemed fixed for 5 seconds, then went right back to the "20-sec dead air before fast busy signal" issue. I even work for Sprint and am having this issue! I've never seen anything like it, and I've been in Sales Support for a good while. I'd ideally like to use GV, but if it's gonna be like this, no thanks.
Other than disabling GV (as I cannot at the moment), any other suggestions?
P.S. - Hi, new to the forums, thanks very much for any help!!

Go to your google account on your computer, then to Google voice and in options, you can turn it off
GV is working again for those interested.

I had this exact issue and resolution. Turn off G Voice integration, call Sprint to turn it off if you need to.
With Sense, there was an option in Contacts to send that certain contact straight to voicemail. Is there not such an option with touchwiz?

I thought I was just being stupid and couldn't find it. It wasn't a Sense feature... its a feature of Android itself that for some reason Samsung removed.
I guess this is another reason I'll be hoping for a pure Android ROM...
Yeah, I'm not sure why on earth they would remove that...
launcher pro will let you access that hidden menu i used it on my epic 4g and now on the epic touch.
Google voice will let you do that, and Sprint let's you use your existing number with it. Not a perfect solution, but at least it's a free workaround for this problem, and GV has a lot of other really nice features, so no reason not to use it - takes about 5 minutes to setup.

I was the biggest advocate for GV..WAS! After all kinds of issues with calls not going through and constant text send/receive issues I disabled GV and ALL of my problems went away. My friend was telling me to disable it because he had sprint too and was having none of my issues. I fought him for like a month. When I finally got rid of GV and my stuff started working again I had to eat crow and tell him he was correct.
It was amazing when it worked, but it gave me far too many problems to rely on as my primary form of communication.

Not sure if you are still wanting to receive voicemails from the numbers you are trying to block but if not I just use the sprint website and block numbers I dont want to receive calls or texts from...just a suggestion...

+1000000 on this ive had my phone for about 2 weeks the first few days it was fine then i enabled gv and then my calls just kept ringing meanwhile the other end people could hear me and my background noise while it was still ringing on my end
and also 50% of the time my calls wouldnt start ringing at all i would have to hang up and recall a few times to get them to connect, finally i went to google voice website and unchecked all of the boxes next to my mobile number on there and my calls started using my stock number again (not the gv one) and i havent had one single problem connecting or not receiving calls since
It seems like I'm getting calls from everyone except from my wife.
I am on a rooted/CM7.1.0/Droid Incredible and she is on a stock Incredible. We are both on the same Verizon plan.
When she calls, it rings 3 times for her and then to Voice mail. It never rings on my phone. I have checked
I have and use Google voice for voice mail but she is calling my Verizon number.
The "Send calls directly to voicemail" box wasn't checked. I have deleted her contact in my phone and my contact in her phone and it still goes straight to voice mail. I can call her and other people can call me.
Any ideas?

Dude, you would get so much money on ebay for that phone.
The only thing i could think of is mabey google voice thinks your wifes number is spam. If you go to google.com/voice and hit the gear icon on the top right, select settings and then the calls tab. Uncheck global spam filtering save the change and then see if that works.

Update:
Formatted everything and "upgraded" to Pons CM7.2 Incredible builds (12192011).
All is working great.
Ha ha, you probably got hacked... Lol
Edit:
To clarify things, guys, he stated that he 'only uses google voice for voicemail'...
This means she is calling his Verizon phone number first... Which, he has something called 'conditional call forwarding' setup... So, even if google voice were set to block her, as spam, it would still have to dial his handset first... And actually ring(or be ignored).
To my knowledge, i haven't seen a way inside of Android to block callers...
Which is why i jokingly say, you got haxxed...
I bet if you flashed a clean install of cm7 again, it would work fine
If you long press the end call button while in a call, you are given the option to put that number on a black list. You could have done that without realizing

Nice, good catch..
That sounds like the most reasonable explanation so far

My google voice number no longer shows up on the caller id of the person I'm calling. When I text someone, it comes in as my gv number, but when I call, my sprint number shows up. My gv number is my business line and I need it to show when I call. I have searched for 2 days for a solution, and I spoke to sprint 3 times with no fix. Google customer support is non-existent, and I actually paid for my gv number. Please please please help...

Forgot to mention that this only started a few days ago, all of a sudden. I have the phone for 3 months without any problems using google voice and now this. I don't know what changed. I am on Calkulins 2.9.2 rom. It's possible it's related to Google play store being forced on us...
What do you guys think?
Dunno if I'm allowed to bump, but this is really important to me. Please help if you can.
Have you tried disabling google voice through the full website, and then following the procedure to enable it?

I did that three times over the last 4 days. It was working without any difficulties till this past Tuesday or Wednesday, not exactly sure. Don;t know if it's the rom (didnt work on latest blazer, calk's 2.9.2 or TNZ blend EL29(think that's what it's called). Been searching for a fix since. Thanks for responding...

If you call from the google voice app and not the phone app, what number does it show? It may be a sprint integration setting.

That is strange, somewhat impossible. I would try calling directly from the website and seeing what happens. I would say that you accidentally ported your number to google voice somehow, but it is still showing up right when you text.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
I went searching on the google voice forum, there are many people with the same problem that started all of a sudden in the past week. It's obviously a big problem, although since Google has zero customer support who knows if or when they'll fix it.
Im not even sure where the problem is, but my phone rarely is able to call my wifes phone, I have the gn2n she has a moto photon, she often times gets a busy signal, before a call goes through and when I call her it just rings and goes to voice mail, she never even gets ac missed call. everyone else's phones seem to work done as far as I know.
Any one have any insight to what causing or our problem?
I have the same problem as I have the note 2 and my friend has the s3 and he says when he call me it always go to voice mail
I have this problem as well, but it started before the GN2. Sprint really is getting unusable.
Do any of you guys use Google voice? I couldn't call out to many numbers, just got a busy signal. Had to disable the Google voice integration and the tech told me she had to disable it on her end too.

Did the fix the issue once disabling the google voice integration? If it didnt then im getting this phone on tmobile cause i think its a sprint issue.
Sprint tells me that this phone "might not be compatible" with Google voice. I don't buy that, but I haven't reenabled it since the issue I had.
