Google voice

I know Google voice has been giving people issues on the gs3 and I'm wondering if anyone has successfully gotten it to work? I use it just specifically as my voicemail provider. Any help would be appreciated.

Set up GV online first, following all the prompts to forward voicemail to GV. Then open the GV app on your phone and login. Works just fine for me!

Thanks! I will give it a try when I get home and report back.

when configuring the app, skip the voicemail set up

so does this work? I really want to change to google voice because I really hate the visual voicemail I'm currently using.

it works just fine for me.
when i install it i always let it try to do the voice mail change but it usually error's out, then i go to the website and do the voice mail forward from there and the keypad on my phone.

Wow that was too easy. Thanks for the tip!
Ever since I've been trying to use Google Voice I've been getting an error when configuring through the app. To get around this error, simply set it up online. Now it works!
Cheers

Does AT&T have a free voicemail app like Sprint?

I can only find the pay visual voicemail app. Sprint had an app where the voicemail would be sent to your phone and you could listen to the sound file without calling your voicemail. Does AT&T not have anything like that?
Before anyone says it, I don't want to use Google Voice since I want that to be a separate phone number.

Google Voice is thebest choice. It's free and much better than other choices.

Try Visual Voicemail Plus. It even works with aosp.aokp, cm9, cm10, etc.

I ise att's visual voicemail app...not the att messages app. Do a search for it here on xda. Make sure you are provisioned for visual voicemail.

That's the link I posted.

Doh!!!!

I have used this AT&T Visual Voicemail App since the Original Note.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.att.mobile.android.vvm
Before opening it for the first time you need to call Customer Service and have them completely reset your voicemail.
Once they reset your voicemail open your AT&T VVM App and go through the steps.
It works for me every time.
Good luck

Sorry guys. When I said free, I meant completely free. No app cost, no monthly cost (don't want to pay for visual voicemail).
To those that suggested Google Voice, did you even read my original post? I want to keep my Google number separate from my regular number. Am I missing something here as to why people suggested it despite my OP?
Anyway like I was saying, Sprint provided a free voicemail app that would allow you to listen to your voicemails without calling it up. It would send the voicemail to the app whenever you got one.

Did you take a gander at visual voicemail Plus? I never had to pay one cent for it.

Did you read MY post? I linked you an official At&t app that does exactly what you're asking. All you need to do is call At&t to have visual voicemail provisioned and it's free.

Sorry again. When you guys told me about that app, I saw the 3.99 price in the Google Play description and didn't realize that was for an upgrade. I didn't even have to call AT&T to provision. Just started working.
Thanks for the help.

You don't need to use your Google Voice number to have use google voice vvm. I've been using google voice vvm like this for 2 years now like this.

Everytime I try to set gv as my default voicemail it keeps giving an error though...anyone else having this problem?

I use AT&T Messages. It threads sms, mms, and transcribed voice mail. Works great for me.

I got the same error. If you just change your voicemail number to your GV number it will work. Also go to google voice on the web and follow the instructions to deactivate and reactivate your phone.

Switching from Google voice

I recently switched from Google voice to sprint visual voicemail and I cannot get sprint voicemail to work . I disabled voice from the PC and when I try to use sprints all I get is a busy signal . I called sprint and they couldn't figure it out . any help would be appreciated. I'm running TW stock odex

with changing from GV to Sprint VVm you have to go to Google voice under a PC and disable Google voice on your phone.
The enter *730 and end no answer call forwarding. That should make all work correctly.

Call Sprint support and they will deactivate Google Voice in your account for you.
Since Sprint partner with Google and does the integration on the voice mail, the only way to deactivate it's thru them. Good luck! :thumbup:

OMG, please at least be 100% sure you're giving the right advise. Calling Sprint is not the "only way" to deactivate GV Mail. I've done it a zillion times via the settings page on the GV website.
O.P, did you try * 38 ?

If you call into care or go into a store simply request that they remove the GVOICE soc code from your account. This will resolve the issue with no waiting. While it is true that you can do it from google.com, there is often a long wait. Doing it through sprint is instant.

Sprint voicemail

This isn't really ROM specific but I'll ask anyway since you're all much smarter than myself.
I am not receiving voicemail either through the visual voicemail app or when holding 1 in the dialer. I'm calling using my wife's phone and it lets me leave a message but I never receive it on my phone. Thoughts?

I can, but the icon is still there

Call in to your voice mail on the dialer and delete the voice message. Press 7 while listening to the voice message. Once done then set up your preferred voice mail app. I use Google voice

I had this issue on the Galaxy S3 when I first got it with a phantom voicemail icon that never went away despite not having any voicemails. I solved it by getting someone to leave me another voicemail and then deleting it. Might work for you as well.

After disabling it as suggested before, reboot your phone.

Same thing happened on the s3. Call yourself from a different phone and leave a message then delete it from your phone.

Can't leave myself voicemail because I don't have voicemail activated.
Did try the reboot after disabling voicemail, still there.

You need to activate it and do the above, that's the only way.

Well if it's the visual voicemail notification that you're trying to make go away, then long press it in notification, and go to app info, and uncheck notifications. If it's the regular voicemail icon, I would say do the same, but looks like on stock that's tied to the phone.apk and stock doesn't seem to let you disable the notification. I'm not 100% sure on this but I think you can uncheck notifications on CM. Otherwise, yeah just setup voicemail leave a message, and then delete it.

I've tried the above method with no results? Anyone have any other ideas thanks ahead .
[edit] I've put this in the wrong spot I have an e4gt I would think the fix would be the same but I can't figure out how to delete my post sorry folks

clear phone data
on galaxy s7 edge with android 6.0 if you hold the notification until you get to "App Notification" then click on the "i" icon, once in the application info select storage. finally clear data

Root the phone and remove the app from your system......
