Got Visual Voicemail Working again, but I still get a text from 9016 and this is what is says
"//ANDROID: (NUMBER HERE) has sent you a Sprint Voice Message. Call (Number Here) to listen MMSN, bfcae285f0,3866,v67akgj+fxk//CM
Then When I reply STOP to it this is what I get
Message from 9230
Message sent using invalid number of digits. Please resend using 10 digit number or valid short code. Msg 2114

Have you tried uninstalling and re-installing the app?

To get VVM to work in the 1st place I had to use Titanium Backup and back it up from a ROM (I used Synergy) that it was working on. Then I restored it on this ROM and it works perfect... I just get that annoying text as well... When I called that number it did set up the service and I had to dial *38 to disable all call forwarding and reactivate my VMM... (followed directions from the Sprint website) and that worked... Just dont know how to disable the text as it appears not to be a valid number to block.

What texting app are you using? Because if you were using handcent, you should be able to blacklist it.

Go to your messages inbox. Click on the title bar at the top that says messages and has an arrow. You should see a drop down with three options "general" "secure" and "block" click on block and it'll take you to your blocked inbox. Hit menu then click on block list. Add 9016 to block list then click done. Now go back to your messages inbox and hit menu and click on settings, click on "general" and scroll to the bottom, you should see "save blocked messages" unselect the box. That should fix it for you!
Oh, and just a heads up, if you have never used the secure or blocked inboxes, it will have you set up a password when you click on "blocked" in the dropdown menu.

I want to say you can get Sprint to add them to a blacklist.
On another note... You got a girlfriend and a wife?!

you can do it yourself on the sprint website
Block or restrict text messaging services:
Sign in to My Sprint with valid username and password at www.sprint.com.
Click the My Preferences tab.
Under Limits and Permissions, click Block texts.
Click on the phone or device to restrict text messages.
Choose from the following options to block or restrict texts:
Do not block any text messages
Block all text messages inbound and outbound
Block all inbound text messages
Block all outbound text messages
Block only these numbers for inbound and outbound text messages
Allow only these numbers for inbound and outbound text messages
not understanding your question fully...do you want to block calls and texts...or hide calls and texts?...Go SMS Pro has a private box with password for texts
I have found no way of doing this on stock or rooted/modded app.. but the best alternative will be to download chomp sms... It's free and she would need to go through the settings just to find it which will be to much for her/them...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1415412 Check this app out. It blocks anything.
actually there is a way to do it. ill explain how i did it. im sure there are alternative ways "better,faster" but this is the one i know. i downloaded launcher pro just to do it and then uninstalled launcher pro after i was done. open launcher pro amd create a shortcut on the home screen. scroll down to mms setup or provisioning, i cant remember for sure. that will open to a sub category and when u see the blacklist option pick that as your shortcut. now just launch it from your new shortcut and choose what #s u want to blacklist. this has worked for me since i got my e4gt. good luck, veritasaequita

Send calls to voicemail
On the Evo you used to be able to select a contact and choose to automatically send calls to voicemail when that person called. That was good for bill collectors so I could just send it voicemail without it even ringing. Does anybody know how to do that with this phone?
get hide it pro...
Works wonders ...its in the market..you can hide SMS ...all calls from blacklisted contact have incoming calls go straight to VM and it has a dope interface that no one but you knows how to access
I have an AT&T SGS3, when I try to set up Google Voice as the default voicemail, it crashes when it tries to change the voicemail settings. I get an error through the Phone app and also through Google Voice's setup wizard. Any ideas or legit work arounds?

What happens exactly? I was having a problem where it said something to the effect of not being able to retrieve the forwarding number (I don't remember exactly). As a work-around, I ended up configuring call forwarding (to my google voice number) for when the call is not answered which worked for me.

You have to do it manually. Visit voice.google.com, settings, and click "Activate GVoice on this phone" for the popup that gives you the dialcode similar to: "*004*<insertGoogleVoiceNumberGoesHere>#"
(It'll work, but, it now takes 60 seconds to forward to voice mail, and can't change it)

I'm having the same issue. I've tried to see if there was a conflict with AT&T Messages and AT&T visual Voicemail, removed both, no progress. I will keep messing with it until I get something to work. I'll keep you posted.
Known issue... Its all over this forum if you use the search function.

I'm having the same issue, I also got it to work by manually changing the forwarding numbers but the phone still thinks "my carrier" is the voicemail service, so long pressing 1 on the dialer doesn't take me to google voice and the voicemail integration with the system dialer isn't working either. I also tried entering the *004*<insertGoogleVoiceNumberGoesHere># in the dialer, which seemed to work since there were no errors but the phone still lists "my carrier" as the voicemail service.
I called both AT&T and Samsung tech support and neither were able to "fix it". This was working fine on my cappy with CM9, so I may just move on to CM10 cause I suspect it is something with the Samsung touchwiz framework causing the issue.
I too am having the same problem, both stock rom and Ultimatum rom.
I can forward my number from the website version of Google voice from my computer, but required device voicemail configuration doesn't work. When you click configure it thinks for a second, then it says com.android.phone has crashed.
I tested the voicemail by calling myself, and it did go to my Google Voicemail and I left a message, however it never notifies me that I have a voicemail, even when I open the app, I have to actually hit refresh within the app.
When holding 1 on the keypad it goes to my AT&T voicemail, not like I'd ever use this method with Google voice being all it actually does is calls yourself, but this confirms it's not fully working.
When I go into the phone app, go to menu and click call settings, I scroll down toe voicemail service and choose Google Voice, hit yes when it asks to change to new provider, and I get an error saying "Forwarding number change failed"
After doing the forwarding it should work fine. If you have issues with it try doing it again and clearing data on Google voice.
Also see if you got visual voicemail allocated to your line. If you do, call att to revert you back to regular voicemail... it'll work then.

Easy way to do it :
1. Go to Phone and then Call Settings
2. Go to Call Forwarding and then Voice Calls
3. Change the number for every type of forward except the first one (that's all calls) to your Google Voice number
4. Go to Voice mail Settings and tap number so you can change it to GV number
Now GV will handle voice mails and hitting 1 will dial GV.
Enjoy.

After manually editing all the call forward options and voicemail number, GV is mostly working now including long press on 1 and use of the voicemail icon on the dialer however, the one remaining issue I'm having is with the call log showing the GV bridge number instead of the person I actually called.

Did you chose an option to use GV for ALL calls?
Regarding what ID to show - check from your computer on voice.google.com settings page (Calls tab) in section Caller ID (both incoming and outgoing) - is it what you want?

You don't have to remove ATT Visual Voicemail to have Google Voice work. I had it on my old phone, and my current phone, and GV works fine (except for the fixed 60 delay) using the manual dialcode forwarding method.
I have Google Voice working on my SIII. As many of you have seen, if you try to set up Google voice via their app, you eventually get an error message.
To get around this message, simply set up Google Voice online (on your computer). It works like a charm.
^^^ what Death&Co said. You cannot do it through the phone. You need to log into your voice account online, deactivate the phone. It will tell you to type in some numbers on your phones dialer. When that is done, restartour phone and then go back to the web and activate the phone for Google voice. Again it will tell you to enter in some numbers on your dialer. Once you do that it will be setup correctly.
DO NOT USE THE APP ON YIUR PHONE TO SET UP GOOGLE VOICE.

ecapox's method worked for me. One thing though - the number I put in the call-forwarding settings on my phone is NOT my GV number, but the number the GV website shows when I log in and click activate (ie the *004*<somenumber># - which isn't my GV number).
The voicemail number - the one to designate when you long-push 1 on the phone - is the GV number.
Hope that helps someone!
Hello i just recently installed the cyanogenmod nightlymod 10 on my Nexus and when i press and hold 1 to access voicemail i get "Is an unrecongnized number please try again" and when i get a text message or notification saying you have voicemail call this number, which is the same number that is setup in my voice mail options i get the same issue.
I had no issues prior to this
Believe you open phone and choose settings. From there you can set up your number for voicemail. Only way to handle texts is to block them. Used to be a code you could send through text to stop them but I never got it to work.
Been awhile since I ran cm10, but believe most set up that way.

First, I have a d2tmo so I'm unfamiliar with the d2spr builds. I'm actually writing about my brother's and I haven't seen this issue mentioned in other threads. Basically the problem is twofold:
(1) He can access his phone's internal voice mail just fine and it registers his key presses perfectly. But when he tries to access his work voice mail, it seems as if it does not register his key presses at all (i.e. when he tries to press a key to delete or do anything, it just continues as if nothing had been pressed). This so far seems to only affect accessing his work voicemail remotely. I confirmed it is working on my d2tmo. Have there been key press issues with the dialer?
(2) Whenever he gets voice mails, two things happen. First, he gets an SMS saying "[Person] has sent you a voice SMS message, please dial [CA phone number] to listen." When he dials it, it gives him a busy signal. He also gets random texts from #9016 saying he's received a voice mail as well. From what I've read this sometimes is caused by visual voice mail issues on different phone models, but he has no visual voice mail installed. Is this a common issue with the GSIII?
Other than these two issues, he loves CM 10.1, so I'd like to help him out and solve them.
Any help is appreciated; thanks.

Well known problem.... It's how Sprint notifies the visual voicemail app to download the message.
You can download root call blocker and permanently block them, but you will never get another notification as to you having a message.
Option 2 is what I did. I installed Sprint Visual Voicemail, downloaded Red List from the marketplace. Turned off stock message notifications to hide the text, in the redlist app I blacklisted 9016 and turned on the notifications in it. This causes the notification to come from redlist, not the message app and redlist deletes the text messages so you don't have to deal with them. They pop through with just enough time for the VVM app to know to download it so you get your messages as well.
Theres a fix for the text from 9016, try googling "disabling texts from 9016 cm10" because it was an issue starting wih jellybean for most phones

Yep, I think I got mine from the epic 4g touch thread or something, its just a voicemail apk.

A while back I decided to try AT&T's Visual Voicemail (VV) instead of the built-in app. I'd like to remove it now and revert to the original app but I'm not sure exactly how.
My issues with VV which if I could rectify would make it so I would keep it....
When I get a call that goes to voicemail, the green "phone" app on the home screen will show that i had received a call, but it does not clue me in to that I have a message waiting for me in a different app (Visual Voicemail). So, unless I check VV every time I've missed a call, I have nothing showing me on the main screen that the message is sitting there waiting. At least with the built-in app that came on the phone, I'd see that there was a message waiting and I could have the phone call the voicemail number so I could retrieve the message..
So, either how do I make VV hook up better to the phone app so that it warns me, or if that can't be done, how do I disable VV and make calls go back to the original voicemail app that came with the phone? I'm not sure if simply deleting VV will make everything revert, or if I might need to contact AT$T or possibly have to do something else.....

Use Titanium Backup to freeze it, that's what I did and also if you have a Google Voice number you can fwd your voicemails to GV and integrate that into the call log and listen to your VM straight from the call log without the need for att voicemail app. You can search on XDA for the tutorial or if you wait I can look up the thread and place it here when I get home.

Thank you for your response! I ended up calling AT&T and having them disconnect it, from their end. They then had me dial "1" and set up my "old" voicemail. Now, at least when I get a voicemail I get some sort of notification, instead of having to open AT&T VV every time I pick up the phone to see if I might have missed a call and gotten a voice message.
If you could link to the tutorial, I'd appreciate it!!!
Curious though...when I go into the settings of the voicemail, the top line shows "Service" (followed by Setup, Notification Sound, & Vibrate). Clicking on "Service" I have a choice of "My carrier" & "Google Voice". I have it set to "My carrier".
I did install GV a while back but never used it. When I click on GV I do have a phone number listed, along with a "welcome" message form GV.. What to do with it, I don't know, so any tutorial or guidance would be quite helpful and appreciated!!!
There may be a multitude of great things that GV can do, but all I'm currently looking for is a way that when I miss a call and the caller leaves a message, that I get notified, and don't have to actively go searching on the phone just to see if I might have gotten a message. My notifications bar at the top is so overcrowded that a voicemail-waiting icon will typically not be on-screen. So, if GV will put a notification on either the lock screen or on the bottom of the home screen near the "phone" icon, I'd be a happy man!!
You could have just deleted the apk from system/app folder
