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

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.
I finally found out why i wasnt receiving text messages on my evo. I was allowed to send but not receive. So i went to the sprint store and it was google voice that wasnt allowing me to receive text messages. So if anyone is having this problem and you have google voice just sign in to google and disable it.
That's weird, thanks for sharing.
I've been setting up Google Voice on the various ICS ROMs I've been testing, because I like its Gmail integration and the fact that it doesn't nag me to buy something the way Sprint's voicemail app does.
The only weird thing I've had with Google Voice is that some voicemails are dead silent once in a while. I'm not sure if it's Google Voice or something else causing it. It's not from people hanging up; I got one over 2 minutes long around a week ago.
What area are you in? I was having the same issues but it was a network problem on there side.

You can choose to never see the buy the voice to text visual voicemail after you setup your sprint vvm, I never see anything except the free trial button, no nagging about ish I don't use GV, yet. I'm gonna have to set it up for work soon tho so i have another number for scheduling appointments, don't need tom, **** and Jane calling my personal number

Some people would beg to differ, but I personally use both. I like voice because it keeps my text messages and things archived for when I switch Roms but I like vvm because its so straight forward.
Coming soon! Bar-o-Soap tweaks! make your system run squeaky clean! WARNING: not responsible if you drop the soap.

That is very true and a great point. Caused nothing but problems for me though. I just use backup sms in the stock messaging app. I should give voice another shot since I don't have free vvm on my rezound. Verizon only gives it free to those losers with crapple phones. Oh well, nobody calls me anyway lol

As far as I can tell, if you have and use this feature regularly, you will not be able to use this feature on this phone unless rooting/romming fixes it. Something samsung has done has broken GVoice on ALL galaxy S3 devices. Some googling reveals that several users have reported issues w/ GS3 (sprint customer or not) and google voice.
Where to from here? Do I pack er up and send it all back to amazon? I'm tempted to. I originally wanted the Evo 4GLTE. I'm sure that works perfectly fine with the sprint feature I use the most. Sigh.
Mind elaborating on what's broken? I have gvoice and have had my s3 for about 3 weeks and while I see some issues, I've still been able to fully use it. Its the number I strictly use for work and so far so good.

The sprint integration allows you to use your main number AS a google voice number. That feature no longer works. :\ What it allowed me to do was to send a text from my device, and view/reply to it from the browser google voice interface.
I've deactivated for now and when I attempt to reactivate I get an error. I'm hoping someone chimes in who's had this problem, but it looks like I must be one of the few who converted over. Ugh
I got the same error, but I kept trying it over and over, and it eventually worked. I had an issue with calls not connecting correctly somewhere in between Google and Sprint, so I would get calls that were completely silent. However, I called Sprint and they completely reprogrammed everything on the back end, and I haven't had the problem since.

I spent many hours and shed tears (almost but not really) last night to no avail. Very very weird. You're right though. It finally worked. What I had to do was completely deactivate, reactivate while signed out on my phone. It's back now. Feels good.
Sorry to bug you guys, carry on.

The Sprint integration also works the other way... allowing you to use an original Google Voice (or even GrandCentral) number AS your Sprint Number.
That's how mine is set up, and I can call, text, receive calls, receive texts just as I did on my original Evo 4G without any issues.
Maybe it's just the one way that is screwed up?
If using GVoice, when you get a new phone, you should deactivate GVoice from the web page before switching your phone.
Switch phone, then reactivate.
Kind of a PITA, and neither Sprint nor Google cover swapping devices.

I used to do the same thing back with my Evo 4G.. but this time when I went to activiate my S3, since the website activation was down, I did so over the phone.
When the rep mentioned she was going to test my phone to see if it receives a call and leave a voicemail, I told her I would have to go to Google first and do the remove/reintegrate dance before she tried , and she said "That's no longer needed on the newer phones". She then called my Gvoice number, gvoicemail picked up and was sent to the Google voice app on the phone just like it should have.
Didn't need to touch a thing, I was quite impressed.
I understand what the op is referring to, I think. With Google voice integrated to your Sprint phone, and selecting gvoice to use your Sprint number as the primary number, you are then unable to:1. use the stock messaging app to receive messages, despite selecting 'use stock messenger' for text messages. All messages are now received thru Google voice widget. 2. You are unable to select 'do not disturb' in this configuration either, which I find unacceptable given the dog**** airline I work for and the harassment we receive on the phone (sorry that's another story). I had to skip the integration portion and use gvoice separate from Sprint so I could retain those features. For those of you who are switching back and forth, integrated and not, I found that it can take up to an hour for the network to catch up. So if you switch one way and want to switch immediately back, you may have to wait.

Sprint is currently experiencing a technical difficulty which prevents new users from integrating their Sprint accounts with Google Voice. Also, users who have disabled the integration cannot re-enable Google Voice/Sprint integration at this time.
Please know that they are hard at work on a solution.
Taken from http://support.google.com/voice/bin/static.py?hl=en&page=known_issues.cs
same issues other people are describing. I use my google voice number (not my Sprint number) as the outgoing displayed number. Right now initiating calls from my phone display my sprint number and not my google number. Tried disabling from the web interface and it told me that Sprint was undergoing maintenance. bah.
I just had my SEP changed to the Everything 450 yesterday, and my GV integration stopped working. I went online and tried to reassociate, and I keep getting a back-end failure, and that I need to call Sprint. Is this the same problem that you guys have been experiencing for months? If so, I feel like I am screwed...
yep, had the same prob when I first got my phone about a month ago. When I tried to make a call, my real sprint number would show. I searched through the google voice app to see if I had somehow skipped the settings of "ask everytime I make a call" blah blah, couldnt find it. Then I thought it was something messed up in the new google voice app since I couldnt find my backup (older) google voice app.
I eventually called sprint, and they reprovisioned my phone, and everything was working fine.
I just flashed my phone a few days ago to get root and the freegs3 rom, and now everything is borked again. Which is confusing the hell out of me, because my phone is already reprovisioned, and flashing roms usually do not interfere with such settings. Looks like Im going to have to call sprint again.
I did write down the instructions they gave me the 1st time, but I cant find that either, so much for being organized.
Unable to recieve calls due to Google Voice
So I have a slightly different issue than most have reported. My wifes number would not come through to my phone. Even after multiple reboots and changing all kinds of other settings. I finally deactivated VOICE and she could suddenly call me. The strange thing was it was completely functional for some other numbers to call me, but the wife could not.
Any ideas? Or is Google Voice just pretty much borked across the board for S3 phones right now?
Ok, after flashing a rom, Im having the same probs again. Called Sprint to reprovision, and they told me its an Google Voice outtage, which I know cant be right cause this thread would be flooded. Im convinced the tech isnt techy. After he gave me this ##code, my phone updated profile, and updated prl. Now, my internet isnt working at all, 3g or 4g. He said he would call back in 2 hours, and said the systems should be up no later than 1pm tomorrow. I called to get google voice back working, not to loose more functionality of my phone! This isnt acceptable.
So, any other ideas?
I was getting furious with Sprint over this problem... I believe they finally fixed it when they reset my plan completely. Moved me to ED450 from the broken SEP. I can guarantee you the problem is on Sprint's side, and not Google's.

apologies for my injections and slight angle change. I LOVE google voice but can not really use it (use it with groove ip very nice I might at)
my problem is google voice REFUSES to let me turn off voicemail or greatly extend the "answer time" for voicemail.
when routing gvoice to a landline the "delay" factor is very small to near instant. I have no landlines all cellular and the "delay time" to cellular is simply "HUGE"
long enough that I had had my phone ring "momentarily" and just stop. not even enough time for me to pick it up.
what happens? the delay time is SO LONG from when it "connects" to when my phone actually "rings" that the call is transferred to VOICE-MAIL before I can answer it.
that renders it nearly useless for me. ever since google neutered their voice mail (no custom mp3 messages anymore) I just don;t have a use for it AND I want to get my calls. not have to call them back every time.
SO does anyone know how to either turn off voicemail all together on google voice OR extended the "time" it waits before going to voicemail so my phones have a chance to RING longer IE so I can answer them.?
For those who have their Sprint number integrated with Google Voice, have you experienced any issues with not receiving calls? Sometimes, I'll receive a missed call notification in Google Voice but my phone never rings. Tried testing it by calling from my landline and it goes straight to voice mail saying, "the Google Voice subscriber you have called is not available."
It doesn't happen all the time but enough that's it's an annoyance.
Call Sprint and have them reprovision you. I've had this happen before and that usually fixes it.

Does using Google voice use any minutes from the land line plan, or is it totally free to use.

If you integrate your Sprint number with your Google Voice account then yes it does use your minutes.
I have this problem as well, going to call sprint
from a galaxy, far, far away.
So I called and had my phone reprovisioned but I still missed a call without it ever ringing. I'm thinking this might simply be a problem with the Google Voice servers getting overloaded at times.

Nice sig
For anyone who still has their Sprint number integrated with Google Voice, are you guys still experiencing problems like this? I'm thinking about integrating them again but not if these issues are still persisting.
On rare occasions I have experienced this, but usually it works just fine. I'm pretty sure it has to do with the fact that GV will only ring your number for about 30 seconds, and sometimes it takes the towers longer than that to find you. I've had my actual phone ring for only about 5 seconds before. It would be nice if GV let you set the timeout...

I experienced the same problem . missed calls and delayed texts . I deleted Google voice and went with YouMail and so far I haven't missed calls or texts that I know of. I tried to use sprint voicemail it kept giving me a busy signal no matter what I did .

The thing I miss most about Google Voice is the ability to text from my computer without my phone having any sort of data or wifi connection. I've tried DeskSMS, MightyText and mySMS but they all require your phone to be connected to the internet for the texts to go through. So if your phone is off or in deep sleep without wifi or data, the texts don't go through. The missed calls thing with Google Voice was a deal breaker though.
Still happening to me and my wife (one android one iPhone). Getting real frustrating. In addition, we are also experiencing an ability to place a call, needing to try mutliple times before the call will go through.
Seems to happen most often when calling from one Gvoice number to the other.
This is with Sprint Integration.
We are struggling between living with this and missing out on all the Gvoice features if we drop it.

Mine is working great and has ever since I started using GV. There are times where a missed call notice will show up without hearing the phone ring, but I suspect that's just Sprint. Doesn't happen anymore now than it ever did. At least I get notified quickly.
Same issues here. I noticed it only happens from people who aren't in my contact list. As soon as I add them, all their calls and messages get through. I had GV integration, but not anymore.
Could this be an issue with CM 10.1? The reason I'm asking this is that all the missed texts show up in mighty text on my notebook.
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.
