You have it in sync with google voice. Go to google voice website and change the settings

^this. I believe it's called call announcement or something similar. Just turn that off.

Looking for the answer to this for a while
Thanks for the info on this, I have been looking for the answer to this for several weeks now. It's pretty annoying to having to press 1 to answer each call.
I believe is call screening

It may be annoying to you but some find it useful. This basically let's you eavesdrop on who is calling you in case they block call ID or are calling from phones other than their cellphone.
On the other side, don't forget about that next time you're calling someone and talk trash about them just before they pick up

it just adds the number/letter bar on top of the screen when you are dialing out or in a call. it is used for when you need to call a number like 1800-tmobile.

Answer call from notification blind

In the keynote, they demo that we can answer or hangup the call straight from the notification.
how do i set that? everytime when i receive a call, the whole screen is being populated with the dialer app and the home button disabled.

They said you can 'hangup' from the notification - not initiate a call. You can also return to your call from the notification.
but there are sample image showing that is possible. (i just rewatch the keynote and realized i remembered it wrong)
but how about this image?

That is a mockup. Notice there is no icon to clear notifications in the top right?
That said...has anyone tried hitting the home button when a call comes in and see if that is where this feature comes in handy? Does it show up in the pull down then?
Are you already using the phone when you get the call? Works for me that way

or maybe we need to wait till mid july for the official release.. then they have it?

Why does default SMS app not display T-Mobile MMS?

Check this out....
I had an issue where I couldn't see MMS from T-Mobile users (T-Mobile users ONLY).....
So I found out that it doesn't work in the default app, but if you download a 3rd party app like Handscent it does!

Anyone know what's up with this?
No Idea, I'm a Google Voice user, but once in a while a friend wants me to send a picture so I use the stock app, and she's on Sprint with an iPhone4, and she NEVER receives my mms (i'm on T-Mobile), or, I'd have to send it 2-4 times before she receives.

The way I made it work was to go into the T-Mo web site and set my phone to one of their phones. Just pick something like Amaze.
If i remember correctly, this happens because T-Mo thinks your phone is not capable of displaying the MMS.
If you search around there is a detailed explanation in the forum... Anyway, change the phone on the web page and it will work...

Google Voice Help Please

I am not sure if this is the right place so please forgive me if I am posting in the wrong forum. I know many of you are experts on GOogle Voice so I was hoping you fellas can help me.
A long time ago I set up Google Voice as my Voice Mail, on my Sprint EVO. I had barely heard of GV then, and I don't remember anything about the process. I am now getting ready to switch carriers to straight talk and I was interested in porting my Sprint number to Google Voice. I have done the research as best I can and determined that my new provider does support Conditional Call Forwarding(with AT&T SIM which I am using), and that Google Voice can port my old sprint number. So I went to google voice website to do this, and discovered that I apparently already have a Google Voice number(didn't know this) and that it is already the same as my Sprint number. So, as you can see below, apparently according to this the number I want ported is in fact already my google number? And it appears that I can already set this up to ring my new phone? So how then do I port it if it's already my GV number? And what happens if I don't port anything, then cancel Sprint? I am SO confused right now. All I want to do is port my Sprint number to GV, then enter my new carrier number to GV so that people calling my old number will be calling my new phone instead. I already use GV for Voicemail. Here is a screenshot of GV account below.
EDITk just realized i didnt black out all my numbers, but meh, you guys aren't gonna call it are or do crazy **** are ya? For that matter if you want to call it to help, or text, feel free! LOL! I'm serious!

Straight to voicemail issue

I have the Straight Talk Samsung Galaxy SIII SCH-S960L. (I was told it's a brother phone to the sprint galaxy s III) anyway. It's stock rom, not rooted, ect.
My question is, Incoming and outgoing calls work just fine, except when my Sons school calls. (well anyone working at the school district that calls from a school line) it goes straight to voice mail. doesn't ring or anything. I get a voice mail notification, but no incoming call. I called straight talk and they said it's not their problem it's a problem with the school districts phones. but yet everyone at his school says I'm the only person this ever happens with. I'm confused and not sure what to do. I don't have blocking mode on. I don't have any of the school phone numbers on a reject list. and as I said, it's only the school this happens with. any other incoming call from anyone else goes through just fine. I took a screen shot of what it looks like when his school calls me (Like they did this morning with an emergency.) any ideas on why this is happening and what I can do? I'm uncomfortable with them not being able to reach me. Here's the screen shot:
