Has anyone figured out how to make it work? In voicemail settings there is no option to select Google voice to handle voicemail.

I think you have to call *28 and your Google voice number... in the setup it tells you. Works fine for me

Thanks. I tried that last night nut calls were still being directed to sprint voicemail. I tried again this morning and it seems to have worked.

So, nevermind. It's actually not working. When I call from an outside line it takes me to Sprint VM not GV. In the past every phone I've used has an option in phone settings to use carrier VM or GV. The SGS3 does not have this option so it seems I'm stuck using Sprint VM until CM9 is made available for this device.

When you installed GV, did you dial the long *number to provision it for your sprint number?

I am using GV now as I came to prefer it after having to use it with early versions of CM9 for Epic 4G

Thanks so much. When I set it up through the GV website it worked. Thanks for the links.

Hey guys tried seething this up and having the same issue. I dial the full *28xxxxxxxxx and it still goes to sprint not GV.
I'm only using GV for voicemail not to make calls.
Any other suggestions ? I went through the faqs too and no luck.
No one?

Sorry, got a little busy this afternoon. Anyhow, if you log into your Google voice account from your computer, you will have an option to set up gv from there instead of the handset. You'll be asked if you'd like to use your gv number or carrier provided number for your gv account. Once you go through those steps, set up gv on your phone and it should work. If it still doesn't work let me know and I can log into my account from my computer and tell you the exact process in a step by step fashion.

You need to deactivate GV if you want VZW voicemail back.
Sent from my ADR6350 using XDA App
i had done all of that as stated
*73 was supposed to be the deactivation code for VZ how ever i was only getting an error
the answer for me was
*900 and
*920
i both of those and it worked like a charm. you have to end the call fowarding and those were the only codes that worked
but i thank both of you for your help and suggestions.
Which app are you using? I tried YouMail and it never quite worked correctly. After I manually forwarded the number (the automated process didn't work), it never notified me of VMs.
Wish it worked, because I loved the caller id feature. So what are you folks using?

Might have to try it again. I used it on T-Mobile and it seemed that I often had friends complaining that they'd go straight to VM even if I had signal.
Does anyone else have any problems setting up with att?

Google Voice cant pull my att data and all that it just wont allow me to use voice as a voice mail option, so im reflashing, and stuck with my horrible issue of rooting :/ lol got it last time, just got to keep working at it this time
Ah, I never use it for voicemail anyway so I might not be much help.

Test the voicemail even if it says it failed. Mine never says it succeeds, but it works. I use Google Voice exclusively for calls.

:/ well i reflashed and got the teathering option now, but still no luck on the Google Voice :/
Call Settings Error
Could not retrieve and save current forwarding number settings. Switch to new provider anyway?
Yes-
Call Settings updating.
Call Settings Error
Forwarding number change unsuccessful. Please contact your carrier if this problem persists.
so should i go to ATT and see what they say or is there a fix i can do for this?
Try going into Google Voice on your computer and checking out the settings. There is a code you can use to deactivate and reactivate the voicemail feature.
When it fails to set forwarding number, is this in the automatic setup or were you manually forwarding in your settings?

I had same trouble with voicemail. I called to att to deactivate carrier voicemail. They sad it's already expired??? I know I have att voicemail and it's active. So no help from support. I changed manually forwarding numbers to gvoice number. And voicemail number to gvoice. And everything working for me now.

you may have to just set up manual call forwarding to set up google voicemail.
*004*your number#
example; *004*1 212 660 2245# (no spaces)

This seemed to have fixed my problem for now, i dont get very many calls so ill have to keep calling myself to test it.
Thanks guys!
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.

I've used Google voice for years, but last week I accidentally set up the AT&T voicemail password and since then I can't get Google voice to take over again.
Would I need to contact AT&T about disabling their voicemail service?

Thanks a bunch! I had the same problem and this fixed it right up.
Alternatively (although not as easy), you can go into the Call settings, Additional settings, and then the Call forwarding settings and set up the Google Voice number there.
