I flashed Cyanogenmod 7.1.0 on an Evo 4G on Sprint service and now I get text messages that say I need to call 408.970.0000 to get my VM. When I called it I got a recording about having a smart phone with SMS or something or another and I wasn't sure what it asked me but I pressed option '2' and it said something to the effect that it would continue sending me SMS voice mails but that's not what I want. I don't like getting the cryptic text messages and would much rather have the previous VM solution I had. I think it's called visual voice mail or something to that effect.
If I want that back and to do away with the SMS notifications what are my steps?
Can anyone help me out or link me to a how to and how to resolve my voice mail issue?
I found something about a Spring VM apk so do I just need to install this app and if so where can I find the latest one compatible with CM7?
Thanks for the help.

Which topic specifically?
Since posting this thread I kept searching and I've found some threads talking about a Spring VVM apk and I've downloaded what I think is the right file that I may try. Now I'm just trying to make sure this is my solution.
Try the themes and apps subforum. Your answer is there.

We are in the middle of this same discussion on another thread so im guna hook ya up. First, download the two apps i linked below. Then using root explorer or a file manager that has root privileges mount system as r/w and delete the stock CM7 MMS app in system/app folder. Than move the MMS app i linked to system/app. Long click the MMS app and make sure permissions are set exactly like the other system apps, click ok. Now do the same with the VVM app below, move it to system apps and set permissions as well. Mount the system as r/o again and reboot your phone. Go into the VVM app and set up VVM and thats it. You will now have visual voice mail again and no annoying 9016 texts. BTW, the MMS app i posted is from Decks AOSP 1.3d rom(that has the fix for the 9016 texts) and the VVM app is from the 8/22 GAPPS, Enjoy.......

Thanks, I'll try it out soon as I get a chance. I installed an apk based on something I found and it kind of worked but I was getting those annoying 9016 texts like you mentioned. I'll give this a go when I get some more time.

I have not tried that rom but the issue we are trying to fix is the annoying texts you get with every vm from 9016. I know this works with the salvaged rom too. The vm come through on your vm app though? Also, some have had success with the following if the VVM app is not verifying there account automatically. Press menu in VVM and compose a message over 25 seconds long. Send the message to [email protected] and make sure you have either wifi or 3g enabled so it will send. This should kick start it.
Use super private conversation app to block 9016 txt. Spc is a free app.

The part in bold above; is it just called MMS.apk or should I be looking for a file called CM7 MMS? Just want to make sure I delete the right one before I get started here. Also, is this process going to be changed any because I installed the VVM apk before you posted this or will following your steps still yield the same results?

Yes the app you are looking for is in system/app and is called Mms.apk. The icon looks just like the messaging app in your app drawer. If you already have VVM set up and working than just delete stock Mms app and replace with new Mms app and reboot, thats all.

Flawless Victory!
I just wanted to quote this post again for anyone who may be searching for a solution to the same problem. Since I had already installed the VVM I simply deleted the MMS apk and replaced as instructed and it worked perfectly. Thanks again for taking the time to post up the fix and link the files needed.
For the record, I searched and while I found ZERO answers to my problem there were sure a lot of people suggesting to search as the answer was as easy as falling off a log and that wasn't the case. I get SO frustrated when people offer zero help and instead ridicule any and every post looking for help to somehow make themselves feel better. No, the answer isn't always that simple and no you're not helping anyone. If you don't have the answer, a link to the answer or at least first hand knowledge that the answer for sure exists someplace recent then do everyone a favor and move along w/o posting. This forum is made better from people like luist4498 who actually contribute and not people like you who appear only to be around to pad their post count.

No problem man! I dont understand why certain people are so nasty about another asking for help when it took me only a couple minutes to upload and post the files and fix. Go figure, btw, if u flash CM nightlies or re-flash CM for any reason u will have to do this fix again since they install the stock MMS again when u flash nightlies or re-flash rom.

Thanks for the heads up but I'm not one to flash ROMs on a regular basis. I was running MikG v2.3 for months before a got caught in a boot loop which forced me to reflash a new ROM. At this time I looked at what was available and decided I liked CM7 the best and flashed that. Unless something else catastrophically fails or I find a feature I can't live w/o I will likely rock this ROM for some time to come. If I do change it though I will be sure to do the fix and refer back to this thread for a refresher. Thanks!

Worked great on my evo 4g and CM7.1

So I've got this notification that will not go away. (clearing does nothing).
When I tap on it, it says it's downloading an upgrade to what appears to be stock voicemail mail. When done, it asks
Code:
This is a system application. Do you still want to replace it?
All previous user data will be saved.
When I hit "OK", I get the standard install approval screen, hit "install", then get bounced to a screen that just says "Application not installed" with just a "done" on the bottom.
Seeing as how I use Google Voice for my voicemail and not sprint, I could care less about the regular voicemail app, but being able to get rid of the notification would be great.
Any help in trying to remove this annoying notification would be awesome.
Thanks!
Just delete the sprint vvm.apk from /system/ and that should do it.
I'm having the exact same problem. I've tried moving the vvm apk out from underneath after the download finishes and the install is about to start, and no joy. I still get "not installed."
Thoughts?
I'm guessing that I have to remove this file using something other than Astro? Keeps telling me that it can't delete files, looks like the permissiosn are read only, and I can't find a way to change the permissions.
You need to be rooted to write to system. Then you can use adb or root explorer.
Sent from my FROYO'D EVO using xda app
If you're using a custom ROM Sprint stuff may not update because the developer of your ROM signed it. Check for updates with your ROM developer (website or an update tool), most of the developers have already made their own VVM update from Sprint's release.
Just another hole to cover so we can't root, just a thought.
Same problem here. Renaming the .apk via adb then rebooting did the trick.
Guys, I figured this one out today.
I got the same "unable to install" message when I tried to install the new one. First thing I did, was uninstall the stock one using Titanium backup, but any method should work the same. Then rebooted the phone and tried the install again.
It went through with no problems. Check my sig for info, but I think this should work with any custom ROM.
Also, please note that I had a copy of the install file on my SD card and I accessed it via EStrongs file explorer. Again, I don't think it matters which file explorer you use, but having it on your SD card may be the key.
Edit: I used this link to get the file on my SD card:

Did you follow my previous post?
1) DL the file on the link I provided from another thread on here.
2) Mount your SD as disk drive and click and drag it onto your SD card.
3) Uninstall the current voicemail app on your phone (if you don't have Titanium backup paid version, you will need to use Astro or another app that can uninstall apps from the phone)
4) Reboot your phone.
5) Use a file explorer to find the zip file you put on your phone, and install it.
You should be good to go.

I followed these instructions step by step and I can get the voicemail app to load but it doesn't work. I don't get my messages, I hit the "check for updates" button and get a box that comes up and tells me there was a general error. I've updated my profile and my prl. Please let me know what I need to do to get this fixed. I'm on BS 1.5.

Well, I am not an expert by any means. I can tell you that this worked for me the first time I tried it. By any chance, can you install the old version back on? Or, did you back-up your ROM in any way where you can go back to the way your phone was before you started so at least the old app is on there and working?
If not, hopefully someone can chime in who knows more on the subject.
easiest way of fixing this should be to use SteelH's flashable vvm update zip found on his rom thread here;

I never got a notitication and when I try to check for updates I get a general error. And when I hit the button to change my greeting, a box comes up saying it will connect me with my voicemail, but nothing ever happens.
I found an old version of the voicemail app and tried that and I get the same results. I must be doing something wrong or there is something wrong with my phone.
Any ideas for me to try, would be greatly apperciated.

Sorry - that link will only solve the issue in the OP - how to update to the latest version of vvm (v5.1.0.34), and get rid of notifications that a new version of vvm is available.
You're having a different issue - you're having an issue getting your message notifications. Can't help you with that one.
I just restored back to a version of BS 1.3 I backed up on Monday and my voicemail worked. But I got the voicemail upgrade message so I then flashed SteelH's voicemail zip and it now works perfect. I get my messages and notifications. Now I guess I try to load BS 1.5 again. But that'll wait until another day, I don't have the time now to completely wipe my phone and set it back up.
Thanks for the help.

no prob - and BS 1.5 includes the latest vvm too, so you won't need to use that zipfile again.
edit - just noticed you were on BS before all of this - I guess it was those other steps that messed things up for you.
I don't know what happened. I was working fine until I went to BS 1.5. When I went to BS 1.5 the notification to upgrade my voicemail was gone but my voicemail didn't work, that's when I started not getting my messages or notifications. And then I started trying to load different versions of the voicemail app and trying different things. But I agree with you, it's probably something I did while setting my phone back up after BS 1.5 and didn't know I did it.
Thanks again.

Hey man that worked like a charm!
Thanks!
(BackStory)
This is how I installed the Vanilla Mms App on my G2 Running Desire Z ROM. No risk if you back up your ROM using ROM Manger,
there are many guides on how to do this.
THIS WORKS ON ANY ROM
Hey guys! I was just looking at the "HTC Sense" Messaging App for the Desire Z ROM and basically I noticed.. it sucks..
Its really bulky and some parts of it don't fit on the screen... (Although the Desire Z ROM Is the GREATEST!)
I wondered if it was possible to extract the "Vanilla" Mms.apk and install it on the Desire Z ROM... So I booted up Vanilla on my G2 and did the work.
This IS possbile! And It works GREAT!
Apps Needed:
Mms.apk (Download Link below)
Android Mate/Root Explorer/File Manager/Linda Explorer, (Pick your Favorite)
Terminal Emulator, you can alternatively use adb shell
Obviously, a rooted phone
Installation: (Fool Proof)
Download my Link Down there, Mms.apk
Plug your phone into the computer and tranfer the file on the root of your SD card
You will now be removing your Mms.apk app from your ROM; Back up if you think you're gonna mess up;
Preform A Nandroid backup using ROM MANAGER, there are many guides on doing so, find them.
Go into Terminal Emulator and type in the following:
**note in some ROMs it will be called "com.android.mms.apk" so check what the name is before you type that in**
su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblk3 /system
rm /system/app/Mms.apk (or com.android.mms.apk)
If your Text messaging app is running, it probably will force close.
After uninstalling, reboot, if F/C occurs, do a simple battery pull.
When your device reboots, it should no longer have the "Messaging" app installed!
Through your favorite file manager, move "Mms.apk" to /system/app/
Now, go through the installing procedure like you would any app.
It should now be installed, reboot the phone, CONGRATULATIONS
Taddaa!! The next step is to enjoy your new Vanilla Mms on Htc Sense (or any rom)
You may tweek the app how you want; change the color through settings by pressing menu on the Messaging app.. etc..
Disclaimer, I am not the person who hurt your phone if you mess up, you are. Do a back up, nothing can be harmed unless you delete other files besides the Mms.apk.
This Mission was success!
The APK File that is attached IS Working as of NOVEMBER 21 2010; It has been fixed!!
***ATTENTION: THANK YOU TO WHEELIEST FOR GETING A BETTER APK***
Ignore every comment that says Force/Closed, the APK Attached has been fixed and works perfectly!
Nov/20 WORKING! Good to go!
This works Seamlessly! Everything works and It looks perfect!
*Don't Forget To Do A Battery Pull after Uninstalling and After Installing The MMS.APK
Awesome...thanks so much!!
Keeps forcing closed... had to restore backup..

try what OP stated?
It Force Closed my Messaging App. (If It doesn't, even better)
After Un-Installing, do a simple battery pull and reboot your phone.
When your phone starts, the Messaging app should no longer be there. Good.

the Vnilla Mms.apk keeps force closing is what he means
are you suppose to move the Vanilla Mms.apk into system/app then find it / install it either via root explorer or ADB?
Not Working?
Hey Guys! Sorry its not working for you I uninstalled it to see if it was tainted, but I can install it and send/receive messages perfectly.
As far as I know, there are no changed settings on my phone. Sorry. I don't know what can be done... Everything I did was right in the directions. Try contacting a more experienced person to this Thread to see if they know whats going on.
Sorry Again..
When you go to install the mms.apk it says that its version 2.1 android. That might be the problem.
works great
thanks alot
If you just place the mms.apk in the system/app/ folder it will work with no problems.
oh, thats right, my version is 2.2 on vanilla rom.
Working?

Hey, UnSungHERO, are you saying it works with MY Mms.apk and with my method?
I already have it, but can you clarify for my and all of us on how to do it?
Thanks. Did you delete the originally Mms.apk file that came with the phone? Or did you place it in the folder and overwrite it?
Does it recieve/send Sms/Mms successfully?
i tried it as it was instructed. Mms.apk installed and worked but would force close after sending and receiving texts. I deleted that apk pulled the MMS.apk from CM and that works fine. Give it a try....more options to boot
Hah, the messaging app is one of the things that I didn't like about the DesireZ Sense ROM. Oh well, I'm not happily running CM! Glad there is a way around it though, thanks for posting!
Nice that was one of the things I disliked about sense. Can this be done with the dialer/contacts

Sorry for the vague post. But yes, I was referring to your method. You should definitely delete the stock sense mms.apk beforehand. I actually haven't sent any messages since replacing the apk. I just tested it and found that the app force closes when I attempt to send messages. SMS messages are sending still with the FC and MMS are not. I'm going to try the CyanogenMod mms.apk since it was mentioned.

Thanks but I didn't need a tutorial. Just stating what happened with the stock android mms.apk. The CM mms.apk works fine with my sms but does not send mms .
Wondering if anyone else is having FCs on com.android.phone
Get it all the time when I'm on a active call > get a 2nd call and answer > select option to put original caller on hold. I'm able to finish up on the 2nd call but cannot get back to the 1st call.
I'm rooted on latest CWM. No custom ROM.
Using V6 SuperCharger and dsexton tweaks.
I've cleared both caches and fixed permissions - no luck
I tested and got the same issue......rooted with CWM. Has anyone else tried this.
And those calls does not show up in call logs as well.

No, just CWM and rooted.
Can anyone with stock ROM check and see if the issue is with Stock as well?
I read somewhere where someone was getting similar error....on google forum it said that it has something to relate to SIM Toolkit.....Do you still have that in your phone as i un-installed it.
i also have this issue... very annoying and inconvenient
Found it. ****in annoying and just plain stupid.
T-Mobile Name ID has to be enabled. I froze it in TB. Unfroze, restart and tested. Works like a charm.

Did a TB on it and this is what I got. Should be safe to download both, throw it in your TB folder and use TB to restore.

make sure you have the setting enabled for installing from unknown sources.
Go to Settings -> Applications -> check Unknown Sources.
Hope this helps.
do I need to install the data.tar and apk file or just the apk? name id can't connect to servers for some reason
it shouldn't need to. as long as it's installed you shouldn't have the problem.
Hi,
I could successfully install mms from CM10.1 on Sense 4.2.2, there is only one feature that is not working..
When I try to create a shortcut to direct sends sms to someone, the application opens but the TO field is empty.. Anyone knows how can it be fixed?
I choose to use this mms app because of it's layout and quick reply dialog..

Does the dark theme works for you? It didn't when I tried... Have reverted to Sense SMS now, so I cannot test your shortcut problem.
It also has issues with MMS not sending properly. I've also tried it with AOKP mms app too.

The one I had, was from the 24/7 nightly and strangly the options is not there, though I have an older where it is, but not working.
Thanks for the version which works for you. I will keep for later. I have in the mean time download the mms from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2376846
It is already dark (but light seems broken). It has the same problem with direct message shortcut, it only works for recipient already in the message list.

You must clear data of mms apk from Application Settings and delete the mms database - > go to /data/data/com.android.providers.telepohony/databases/ and delete the mmssms.db file. Reboot and mms sending will work.

Nice, now there is just the sending from shortcut problem...
I tried that, but it's still stuck on sending. I've been trying to fix for it since I got the HTC One. I'm running ARHD 12.1 Rom and I just want the MMS apk from AOKP/CM10.1 since I'm used to it with my DesireHD. Thanks for your help

I am also on ARHD 12.1 and I did the following procedure.
1. Moved Mms.apk to /system/app/
2. Changed permission of Mms.apk to rw-r-r.
3. Deleted the htc messaging apk.
4. Deleted the mmssms.db file
5. Restarted my phone,deleted dalvik and cache in recovery.
6. Booted into system and deleted all cache and app data from settings-app settings-Messaging.apk.
7. Rebooted again and it worked.
Worked on GoogleEdition Mms.apk and CM10.1 Mms.apk.
Try to do it all over again,delete everything and redo my steps,it must work.

Hmm.. Messaging stops working when I try to add a contact when sending text message. First, it says Messaging stopped working (when adding contact first), then "Com.Android.Mms" stopped working (when adding text first, then contact).

This is really strange, I have never had a single issue. Did you use the exact procedure?
Maybe you can try mms apk from the ge edition first. I used the one from ARHD GE 2.0.

I used the exact procedures with different MMS apks (AOKP and CM10.1). Are they the same or different? I'll research first. I know it's weird,
OK, so this may not even be the result of running a custom rom because it hasn't worked with any of them. When I click on Voicemail which isn't setup yet by the way, all it does is send me to my messaging app. It gives me no options to set it up, or check voicemail.

I removed the Visual Voicemail application. It can be added back.
The icon for Visual Voice mail is tied to the Messaging app.
I need to edit the messaging app to rid that icon. for now just use the feature to "hide" it in the app drawer.
of it you want the app, pull it outta the bloat.zip
Okay, thanks

are you using my empty flashable.zip..?
just pull vvm.apk and put in system/app
Once I get my phone back, and or you have S-OFF this won't be an issue.
Aroma will solve a lot of these types of issues as well.
Okay, I put it in place of the null file in the app folder in your flashable zip and after re zipping it it failed when flashing

Don't unzip then rezip. Use a tool like 7zip and drop it into the zip. It failed because by unzipping, you broke the signature

exactly what Ty said.
I am expecting my phone back today, and my first project is Aroma..
so bare with me.. (not you Ty)
I will be getting the ROM to where I am comfortable with calling it a full non beta release.
Only reason it's beta is because I don't have Aroma set up yet, once that is set up, it's game on.
you will be able to re-flash the ROM.zip pick "MOD only" and then select JUST the .apk you want (NO you can't remove apps, use root explorer for that, I think S-OFF takes away write protection but I have no idea yet, if not, then, well, we will need to get used to that .zip that deletes files (it's quite easy, once you try it out and everything)

Have you had any luck ridding the VVM icon and whatever else from the messaging app yet. I had a nasty issue related to the new VVM.
I will spell it out here in case anyone else has this issue.
So i like always update my phone when updates come out.
The new VVM has some addition network elements tied to it on the back-end.
Long story short this 443 update has created randomly dropping my mobile connection. I tried re flashing the radios, the stock rom, going back one radio version, etc. I mentioned this in a post in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-htc-one/help/wifi-bluetooth-mobile-data-wont-off-t2883253
I don't believe it is anything we have done in here, but the issue was with exclusively mobile data where it would disconnect but still show 4g, anyways back to the VVM
I had to revert to 442 stock rom as it didn't have the disconnecting issue
Since i already ran the newest 443 VVM app with those additional features, the 442 VVM fails with error code 2004 when on a 442 ROM
So i had to be coy when calling VZW to get them to reset this. Lucky they didn't ask SW/HW versions, so basically they had ' reset the network elements ' associated with the newest version. WORKED!
So if this happens to you , all i said was it came down as an update, i didn't like it, and reverted back and now it does not work, etc.... I tried to find the newest update again but cant find it.
I was wondering how the VVM icon still there after removing the APK, that answers that. I tried to load the newest VVM on 442, and epic fail lolz
Just providing some info for everyone

Foolish me, this is so very simple, I just forgot that you have to do it on a 100% clean flash, you can't use a flashable.zip as it is an .xml system edit.
system/customize/resource/allapplication.xml
basically you edit this .xml just search for "voicemail"
you will find this line of code
Code:
<item type="application" packageName="com.htc.sense.mms" className="com.htc.sense.mms.ui.VoiceMailTabActivity" display_order="200" display_hide="[B][COLOR="Red"]0[/COLOR][/B]" />
change it to

<item type="application" packageName="com.htc.sense.mms" className="com.htc.sense.mms.ui.VoiceMailTabActivity" display_order="200" display_hide="[B][COLOR="Red"]1[/COLOR][/B]" />
to be quite honest though to save yourself A LOT of time, just hit the menu button in app drawer click hide apps and hide it, that is what this MOD does anyway...
