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!

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

I am running salvage mod 1.1 after switching from a sense rom. I set up Google voice and thought everything was going fine. Well I received a couple voicemails and they keep trying to go to my sprint voicemail. I tried to delete Google voice and reinstall and it still wouldn't work. Any suggestions?

Not trying to be an ass but try posting this question in this thread!

The reason I'm saying this is because you have a better chance of someone answering your question then if you post it here where you have people with all sorts of different roms installed........BECAUSE it might be a problem with your ROM not Google Voice......hope you fix your problem soon!
When you reset it, did you set your voice mail carrier to google voice, and call that number it tells you to?

Glad I could be of help.
Has anyone noticed lately that when you log in to google voice, it doesn't give the option to skip voice mail setup? Any way around this?
Huh? I only get asked when flashing a fresh rom

I usually sign in and out of google voice on a daily basis. It used to offer a "Skip" button when I would get to where it asks for the voicemail setup. Not seeing that option any longer. It's not a big deal or anything.. just requires me to go into settings and switch my voicemail options back over to my carrier.

I have the same annoying problem..I read that if you call and leave a message on that voicemail it will go away if you delete the message you just left. My problem is that I use Google Voice for my voicemail. I cant figure out how to stop using GV! Even if i uninstall the app , it leaves the message in my google mail box. I have looked for answers but nothing...Unbelievable ! Good luck, I hope you dont have google voice.....

check your vm provider in call settings. also, if you enabled google voicemail on your number, it probably needs to be disabled in your voice account.

I've had Google voice since I've had a droid 1so i know it worked before. I've had my gnex for more than a year and had no problems (different ROMs too). It just stopped working all of a sudden. I signed out, I uninstalled it. It says my carrier doesn't support it. I've always had Verizon.
I've gone to the help thing it gives me. That didn't do anything. Is anyone else having this problem? If so, any suggestions?

Update: so i called my Google voice number with another phone and it works. But if I call my cell number it goes to my Verizon Voicemail. Idk why or how.

You might try going to the Google voice site. Login and go to your phone listing in the settings. I am next to your mobile should be a link for deactivating voice mail. I'd click that, ignore what it says next and click okay, then click activate again and punch in the code it gives you to setup forwarding again. It sounds like that might have gotten lost some how.
If it doesn't say deactivate then just do the activate process again. I haven't always had the best luck with the app setting the settings correctly so this might help.
Good luck!

I'm trying to get Google Voice working as my voicemail, but am having issues.
Has anyone else tried this?
When I tried to change my voicemail provider from "My Carrier" to "Google Voice" I get an error saying that it can't change the forwarding number.
I then tried to change the forwarding number in Call/Settings and I get a "Network or Sim Error"
Anyone have any insight?
Never mind, I tried it a couple more times and the damned thing switched.

Have Google voice forward the texts/voicemails to hangouts then uninstall the Google voice app all together.

I appreciate that you're trying to be helpful, but how does that fix the issue of not being able to switch from the carrier voicemail?
The issue is not with the app, it WAS with the phone, which was slved.
If a mod would like to delete this thread, please do. Nothing useful will come of this.
