Press 1 to accept the call??? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Does anyone else get this thing? After I get a call and slide the green accept button, a voice comes on telling me to "Call from %name%, Press 1 to accept".
Does anyone know how to disable this?

I was just about to post this myself.it's very annoying.
If I didn't want to accept the call I wouldn't answer it to begyin with... I'll be following this thread for an answer.

Sound like you install "GOOGLE VOICE" on your phone. It's a great app.

You have google voice call screening enabled. It can be disabled on the web version of google voice in the settings

press 1 to answer

i love my phone but i hate one thing about it. is there a way around the press one to answer crap?
I believe it has to do with your Google voice settings... might have to uninstall it or change its settings online.

[CM7] Answering a phone calls

So, seems that ever since I flashed to Nightly build 5+ (currently on 10) I have a weird option to answer phone calls. Everytime I get a call, I slide the tab to answer, then an in call voice prompts me to press 1 to answer and someother options as well. Is this a feature of CM7 or is this some weird bug like thing (lol) I'd really like to get rid of it so all I have to do is slide the tab to answer my calls, as having to press "1" to answer every phone call is kind of annoying

It unexpected, but nice at first. Now its just kind of annoying :\
I've looked thru the settings to see if there's a way to toggle it on/off but haven't come up with anything yet.

Sign in to your google voice account on a pc and disable call screening.

My problem is when the phone rings when I am doing something else on the phone, I have to use the pull down menu just to bring up the call to hit the slide to answer the call. The incoming phone call is not overriding whatever you are doing, so it is very hard to answer.

That is your Google voice integration. Either remove it or as mentioned above log in on a browser and change the option.
Thanks guys!

Is there a reason we all pretty much need to use Google Voice? Does Sprint not recognize our phones properly on CM? Before I activated it, I was not receiving voice mails properly. Sorry for potentially dumb question, I'm still trying to figure everything out here. Also, the Voice website says things about account balances... Does this in any way change my billing for Sprint, or cost extra or anything? Or is that stuff just for people who use Voice as their only provider?

No. I used Sprint voicemail on CM9 with no problem. I used to turn off notification and use the 9016 text as my notification. Sprint vvm for the Epic was made to run with Touchwiz, CM7,9,AOKP,MIUI are not Touchwiz. Alias8188 got the ICS version from the Epic Touch to work on these. But for those still having problems it is just easier to send you to Goggle Voice which has a deal with Sprint for integration so there are no charges.

[Q] answering calls

hey guys i've been having my sprint galaxy nexus for a few weeks now and i think this just recently started happening.
but when i get a call and i answer it the phone will say to accept the call press 1 to send to voice mail press 2...
can i turn this "feature" off?
dont really like having to pull up the dial pad every time i get a call.
Sounds like you are recieving a Google Voice call.
is that what it is
i thought maybe it was. i guess thats when it started happening. i logged off google voice and it still does it.
Yep google voice call. You need to disable call screening in the settings of the browser site.

I have to press 1 to accept a call?

I'm using the latest aokp ROM and every time I get a call, I swipe to the right to accept it but then I get a prompt sing press 1 to accept or press 2 to send to voice mail. How the hell do I get rid of the prompt and go straight to accepting the call. If I wanted it to go to voice mail I would just reject the call in the first place

Ditto. It's been working since day one for me.
It's not about works, not works, it's about the option to fully integrate Google voice with the OS. If you've been AOSP before, you'll know what I mean

I guess I'm missing something. If I call internationally it automatically bashed the call through Google voice. It works the way it's supposed to

When you go to voicemail settings on an aosp rom, it asks you what you want to use for voicemail, which then let's you select Google voice. On stock Samsung, the voicemail settings panel goes straight into sprint visual voicemail. If you ever go aosp, set up Google voice and you'll notice the difference.
