Many have had issues with their visual voicemail apps disappearing, and not available in Market. Thanks to the folks below for providing the APKs for manual install.
2 Versions attached.
tmo-vm-1.0.12.apk - props to bmozaffari
tmo-vm-1.2.19.apk - props to chewy106
There was an app update available, and after the update the original icon on the screen didn't work but was still there, I had to use the icon in the drawer.
I heave an update available in the market but get an error when I try to d/l. I also don't have the icon in my app drawer.
Sent from my DETHFONE (G2)
initially i had to download it from the market to even have access to visual voicemail cuz it wasn't already on my phone by default.
in the market, look under the t-mobile tab at the very bottom. there's 2 other T-mo apps avail. caller tunes & something else.
and after the update i was able to activate Visual Voicemail from within the drawer.
and just as an FYI, here's how Visual Voicemail looks after the UPDATE:
That sure looks nice. Wish I could update mine. I went and looke in T-mobile tab and all I saw was caller tunes, ringtones, and my account. Tried to update mine again and it said my request could not be found. Then I tried to uninstall it and that force closed the market. Guess ill just have to stick with the original for now.

sorry for the late response.
i'm down to post the APK file.
anybody care to instruct me on how to do it from my phone with no desktop interface?
i have:
~temp-root
~gScript Lite
~root explorer
~android terminal emulator
I don't know how, but I would love it when you figure out how to do it.
I'm on my second G2. First one rebooted all the time...hung on the 2 screen.
Second one incoming and outgoing calls are silent...great when someone I don't want to talk to calls, but not so great when an important call is coming in.
Guess I will have to go back to the G1.

i used 'backup for root users' to do this on my MT3G, i'd hope it should work for this too.
t-mobile visual voicemail
I myself came here looking to find out what was up with the update... For those of you who don't have any version of the app, it's attached to my message here. I got an update notification and also get a "not found" error when I click on it in the Market.
My G2 didn't even include Visual Voicemail. However, I did already load up the .apk
i heard there was some issues with vvm, so that is why it was taken off the market. my original pre order g2 had vvm. but since i got my replacement it did not come with it and i try looking for it in market but nothing. =(
thanks for the upload...i'll try to see if i can install it.
I use YouMail. A lot nicer IMHO
looks like it works...but i want the new version...not sure how to get that one.
Newest VVM
Attached.
If it returns "unauthorized" errors, make sure the Visual Voicemail provisioning is on your line (it's free). Seems to be working fine on my 3rd G2, though it lost one of my 2 previous saved messages from before I returned the 2nd one earlier today. Though the update says it will delete all old messages, so keeping one of the two is a bonus I guess
I wondered what happened to the VVM app too. Couldn't find it on the Market.
Finally just gave up and signed up for Google Voice on my G2 and have been getting my voicemails that way along with the transcripts.
I'd like to go back and try the VVM app from TMo though for comparison.
Does anyone know if the quick responses feature works with google voice text. I don't have SMS plan. So it would be super useful to have that feature. I have google voice installed. But I don't see any setting for that.
If it's like other functions (at least on gingerbread), like voice actions, it will ask you what you want to use to send the text when you use the feature, and you can choose GV as default there.
I don't have a GN to confirm this, so this is only an educated guess.
I posted a question about this the other day. It does not look like there is an intent for this.
When I tested this, the reply came from my cell phone number, not my google voice number. There IS an intent for "send text..." in Voice Actions but doesn't look like for this. I hope there's a fix!
Maybe a dev can take up creating one?
Back with my Samsung Galaxy S II, I had loaded an MIUI rom and used their five-points lock screen - one of the short cuts was for the SMS app. Someone had created an APK that I installed, that after installation, when I went to the SMS shortcut, up popped up an intent asking if I wanted the Messages or Google Voice app. I wish I had the know-how to do something like this!
Is there any way for us to get this to work with google voice? I want it bad!
Did anyone get this figured out?
I'm using ICS on a captivate and use GV for everything. I would really like to get this working so I can use the quick responses.
I'd really like to see this fixed/added too. After searching, I really only saw these two other forums tracking it and wasn't sure if there are other places I should be raising my hand. I can confirm that it's the only part of the OS that I've come across that does not let me choose Google Voice instead of the native phone or messenger.
(just found out I can't link as a first time member...)

rough web address: google code android issues #23442
Is this something that would likely pop up as an update to ICS? Is this something that would likely require loading an entirely different ROM? Are those questions even appropriately constructed (new to android)?
I made an app a few months back that let you share some text... one of the frequently referenced intents in Android documentation would only send to Messaging (show you the messaging app with the text pre-filled in) and not GV..
Another, less publicized intent let you "Share" with all kinds of applications. This was the only one that would prefill GV and Messaging (and email and tons of other apps). But again, it was an intent that would open the apps pre-filled, not send it.
Another thing that could be done in the app was to just send a text from within the app.. The user never sees the messaging or any other app and the text is sent. This is obviously can only work through native SMS not GV. (For this, an app that uses this feature needs the SMS permission)
--
I haven't done the quick responses yet, but I assume they send the text without taking you to an app, so that's not an intent that's sending a message through the OS, and impossible with GV. Again, I haven't looked at Quick Responses, so I don't know if this is how it behaves.
Please Star the issue on Google Code to get Google's attention!

Also - disregard my last comment. The intent to send through GV already exists, they just need to call the right intent in the dialer app / quick response. This fix would literally take them 5 minutes to do. Star it to get higher priority on the issue!

Also check out http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=34175 - it looks like this reflects in Jelly Bean as text voice actions not working.

Because the bug still needs attention?
I am using a Samsung Galaxy S III I747M (Rogers Canada).
Is there a visual voicemail application that I can use so I can see my voicemail inbox?
The stock/carrier provided application sucks and for the most part doesn't work.
Are there any alternatives?
I've looked through Google Voice and such... any help is appreciated!
Thanks!
EDIT: Sorry I forgot to add more to the title... If a moderator can edit it for me that would be great. Thanks!
As most of you know, Google stopped the use of static dial-out numbers which many of us made use of by putting such numbers in our Fave5 or equivalent.
Has there been any work on modding the GoogleVoice apk to operate as it used to?
Thanks a bunch in advance for any help or guidance that can be provided.

When did they stop doing this?
This isn't an answer to your question, necessarily, but I set one of my "faves" to my own Google Voice phone number (set as my Sprint "Home" number, and one of my five faves on T-Mobile), they GV Callback routes all of my outgoing calls through my own Google Voice phone number. Also fixes the call log to reflect who I actually called. It's pulled from the market, but available on amazon app store if u want a link, or are unfamiliar with it.
I use the GV app for all of my sms (so I don't know the following): if they stopped using static dial out numbers, how does it handle received SMS though the stock messaging app?
Thanks for the suggestion. I have Xinlu's GV Callback - its still available on the Amazon Appstore - but its not as elegant I'd like, and I wondered if people had actually fixed the app itself. The last version of the Google Voice Apk which used the static dial-out is still available here, but its lacking in some of the newer features and smoothness of the more recent versions of the Apk.

If you are receiving texts to the messaging app, it's because you are using the feature of the Google Voice APK which tells it to pass the message to the native messaging app.
I guess GV Callback is the only real solution, though I'm surprised the enterprising XDA folk haven't yet figured this one out!
Man, I'm surprised too. I've been looking for good gv solutions since I was using grand central on winmo.. Lol.
Btw.. If u want a nice inverted GV app

Hello, I know it might sounds stupid but : Can you install for instance Gmail, Google phone, Google contacts and of course have no bugs, because Google phone app need some kinds of drivers don't it ? To filter calls etc..
Thank you for the answer of this stupid question,
Cheers.
gmail and google contacts are already installed. google dialer you cannot install as it is exclusive to nexus devices although the stock dialer is pretty similar minus the spam features on google dialer.
