Default contacts app sends text via google voice- - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

Hi all,
My s3 sends texts via google voice when I'm in the contacts app and select 'send message'. I can't for the life of me figure out how to change that back to the default messaging so I can have the correct number show up. Anyone have any thoughts? (Clear Defaults is empty for contacts app)
Thanks!

Is it clear for Google voice as well? Try clearing data and cache for voice?

Did you clear defaults within Google voice app?

Google voice

So I downloaded Google voice and didn't like it due to the pressing 1 or 2 to answer a phone call.
I then uninstalled the app from my phone and still getting the prompt to press 1 or 2. How do I get rid of that.?.

Well, you have to unlink Google Voice from your Sprint number, however, if that's why you don't like it you can just go into Google Voice account settings from your PC and disable call screening, as well as text and email notifications. If you're looking for just a visual voicemail, then setup Google Voice without integrating your Sprint number.

How to get rid of google voice settings?

So I tried to see what google voice does exactly and I seen its not necessary for me so I uninstalled it but noticed that its settings are still on. So I reinstalled it and went in the settings and signed out which was supposed to take it off completely but its still there. When I get a phone call and answer I always have to press "1" to answer. And I get txts and e mails of my voice mails which I don't like. How can I get rid of this completelyyy?

You have to change call screening options.

Can't get Google voice to work

When I install Google voice and get to the part where it asks to use Google voice fit voicemail and select it, but there is no next button to continue. It says that I am using Google voice in the call settings, but all voicemails go to T-Mobile's voicemail.

Skip that part and move next.
Once setup is finished you can get the codes from Google voice webpage to use in the dialer to change voice mail settings.

How do I change the settings for that? Because when I try to change the voicemail number, it only allows me to choose either "voicemail" or "Google voice", it does not allow me to enter a number.
Running jelly bean fyi

I had the same problem and I went into the call forwarding settings and changed the number there to my google voice number. seems to work now.
Call forwarding is blocked from me getting access to it.

This same topic was covered a couple of weeks ago so search, I'm too lazy to do it for you. The solution was to set it up online through a browser.
Got it, thanks! Here is the link to it incase someone else has the issue

Yeah, iirc the online fix just sets up call forwarding to your Google voice number.
