Google Voice config problem - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

I am having a problem configuring Voice for my voice mail when I hit to configure the screen goes black for 5 seconds and then pops up "Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped"
I have reinstalled and cleared data a few times and have rebooted the phone in between tries.
I'm running rooted stock
Is there anyone else having this or know whats going on

Ya, I don't think it works on ics...happens to me too
If you're looking for visual voicemail I hear the att visual voicemail app works but I couldn't get that running either

I had to set it up on the Google voice website. Under settings phone there should be an option to setup Google voice for a phone number you have tied to your account.
Notifications don't seem to work for new voicemails but I just forward the new message email to a text message.

The OTA update from yesterday almost fixed it I can get through the whole process of setting up GV except it throws an error when it tries to change the forwarding numbers then goes back to the GV setup and lets you skip to the end. I get notifications but it still rings GV like normal instead of going straight to voicemail. It also still says My Carrier under Voicemail Service.

Figured out how to get Google voice working .
ya, tried the att messages app today.. horrible. it froze my contacts and kept shutting down some google app process.
for those who are curious.. google voice works on ICS. took me a moment to figure it out, and really liked having it on gingerbread. go to google voice website. hit settings and then "activate voicemail" it gives you a series of symbols and numbers to enter into your dialer and then it's activated.
BAM.

Resetting Voicemail

Guys so a few nights ago I gave up trying to get VVM to work on CM7 nightly and moved to google voice. Some how one thing or another happened and I got the little voicemail icon at the top of the screen. I mistakenly dialed my own number and setup a pin for voicemail. Now when someone calls my phone and if i dont answer it says "could not complete your call" and they dont get my voicemail box.
I have tried wiping and flashing a sense rom no dice
I flashed a sense rom and sent the [email protected] and it did nothing
How can i get voicemail back onto my phone without having to dial in?

I'd stick with google voice personally. I've used both sprint VVM and google voice and google voice wins hands down. Just make sure you setup google voice mail correctly though, got setting>call>voicemail service. set that to google voice then goto voicemail settings and click voicemail number, it should then have you call a number to activate the service and after about 3 seconds it'll hang up automatically. you should be set! goto google.com/voice and setup all the different preferences. Best I can do, goodluck

to get sprint vvm to work on cm7 you need to flash back to a rom where vvm worked. try it out to make sure it still works, the back it up with titanium back up.
then nand back to cm7 and restore the vvm app.
everything should now work fine
So far I have tried:
Flashing Stock Sense and trying voicemail. Still isnt working, when someone calls me and if i decline the call or miss it, they are presented with a "cannot complete your call" as if i no longer have a voicemail box
Completely Wiped and used Format All, flashed Sense. Same issue, no one can leave me a message. Installed and activated Google Voice, same issue
Tried this on AOSP as well same issues as above.
Anyone ever seen this issue?
So i think im not being clear really as the few replies have been items i have tried
Basically I can no longer access my voicemail through google voice or sprint visual voice mail
I have to dial my number, enter a pin and go through the voicemail as if this wasnt a smart phone. When someone tries to leave a voicemail they get a message "could not complete your call"
any way i can fix this or do i need to go to sprint to have them reset my voicemail? Do i need to go into voicemail settings and setup a forwarding number?

ok ok its something messed up with your voice mail, not the phone.
id call sprint.
In Google Voice, when I click on "Deactivate Google Voicemail from this phone", it tells me to dial *38 from my EVO. It may be the code that changes voicemail conditional forwarding back to Sprint. Maybe you could try that?

You have to go to google voice and remove your phone and all should then work
dial *38 that stops your calls from being forwarded to google voice.
if you want to use google voice you have to go through the settings for google voice and dial the number it tells you to so it will forward after so many rings. as for the voice mail icon in cm7 there is a setting for voice mail notifications that you can turn off and you will not get it every time you reboot. if you are using google voice you dont need the notification set.

[Q] VZW Galaxy Nexus + Google Voice Installation

Has anyone had any trouble getting the google voice voicemail set up on the VZW galaxy nexus? Whenever i get to the voicemail section it gives me the error
"Carrier config: unfortunately your network carrier is currently not supported for automatic configuration. To use google voice as your voicemail provider, please visit google voice help center for more information".
Going to the help center has nothing on how to manually set it up.... My droid 2 had no problem setting this up automatically... am I missing something?

I've done those steps, but they didnt work. The *71, *90 and *92 also didn't work in my situation.
I eventually ended up uninstalling on the phone, and deactivating and then reactivating the vvm from the web admin panel. The *71 number worked, and then reinstalled voice on the phone. It worked after that.
It seems that the error i posted in OP is present always for verizon. Still works if you manually dial the instructed number. Not sure why....
try to have someone call you and leave a voicemail message. i've only had my nexus for a couple days but i was able to set google voice up on the first day. i got the error that it couldn't be set up the normal way but in the settings and everything it looked ok and i had someone leave me a message and everything worked like it was supposed to.
Hey I hate to bring up this old thread but Ive been troubleshooting this problem long enough so I figured I would ask here.
I'm having trouble getting google voice to work the way I want to. I set it up and it seems to work, whenever people leave me voice mails my google voice app pops up and transcribes it and gives me a notification of a new voice mail. But I cant seem to set custom voice mails for specific contacts. As a matter of fact I cant seem to change my voice mail at all...it just says my recorded name.
So I go on my computer to google voice and make changes to my voice mail greeting and these changes are not reflected in my phone. Also I call my google voice number on my phone and try to change the voice mail there but it also doesn't change it.
Sorry this is long and confusing but maybe one of you know what I'm talking about

Google Voice App?

Okay I'm on my T-Mobile SGS3 and I got the Google Voice app. I only use this app to make International calls/text messages and I use this app as my voicemail.
Now, I think I have the voicemail portion set up properly. I set it up using google.com/voice and disabled the old phone and 're-enabled' the new phone in settings on the computer browser.
and now when I test to see if it works, i DO hear my voice-mail message and my google voice number also works. so it seems like it works, but when someone leaves a voicemail, i don't get a notification or anything. but my OLD Samsung Vibrant receives the notification instead.
tl;dr / cliffs:
installed google voice app
google number rings on phone
my voicemail 'message' works
when someone leaves a voicemail, i don't receive it. my old phone receives it.
That is odd. Have you tried uninstalling Google Voice on your Vibrant?

Go to Google Voice on your computer and check the phone account?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
I have the very same problem and my old phone recived notifications. The work around, not a fix, is to have google voice text you when you receive a new voicemail. To turn that on go to google voice settings on computer and check the box to send you a text when you receive a voicemail.
On Sprint, I got this to work by disabling voicemail on Google.com/Voice and then re-enabling voicemail on the website. I'm not sure if this is what you've tried or if you simply disabled your old phone and added your new one.
For some stupid reason, the setting doesn't exist on the phone itself, but doing this seemed to push the setting. It even greyed out the forwarding option on the phone. Good luck.
****. i dont think i disabled it from my OLD phone.
when i went to disable, i just hit the ##004# code on my new phone. i thought it would disable it completely. but now i guess i needed to put that code on my old phone?
which i can't do now cause t-mobile deactivated my old (large) sim. and also i reflashed a new stock rom on my old phone.
is that even the issue? the fact that i put the "deactivate" code using my new phone?
I used Google for voice mail but had a lot of problems, I switched Youmail and couldn't be happier, might want to give it a try..

okay, well, i've been workin at this for a couple hours now lol
and i don't know wth i did to fix it, but i fixed it.
tried a bunch of things. like re-installed the app. changed back to the carrier voicemail for a second and changed it back. changed it on google.com/voice again.
one of those things fixed it. everything is back to normal
I can't even get GV to configure my voicemail. I get a com.android.phone has stopped working error. ATT is of course no help. Anyone have other ideas?
I've done the following:
Uninstalled - Re-installed
Forced my GV # into call forwarding
tried the *004*1(GVnumber)#
and a Factory Reset
All with no luck....

Same here. AT&T
I haven't rooted my phone yet so I can't delete apps but I had ATT delete my 'att messages' app to see if that was the issue. It was not.... Back to the drawing board.

It always crashed when changing voicemail providers on my old Skyrocket.
But then the voicemails still worked properly.
Not on the SIII, not yet. I havne't messed with it too much yet though.
T-Mobile user, this is how I got it to work:
Installed app, went through the steps to set it up till I got the com.android.phone error
logged into GV on my PC, removed old phone
reran setup steps, same error
verified GV recognized the new phone in web interface
seems to be working fine after that

T-Mobile - Google Voice crashes when configuring voicemail

I'm having issues getting Google Voice running on my new phone. I had it running on a G2x just fine. Everytime I get to the stage where it syas it will configure voicemail to use Google Voice it comes back with com.android.phone has stopped.
So far as I can tell it's failing to configure voicemail, however unlike my G2x I can't find the voicemail number setting under the phone settings to see what it is set to. I don't know if this is a GSIII thing or something to do with ICS.
Anyone else run into problems configuring google voice?
Restart then try launching voice again.it went away for me. The problem I have now is that I cannot get the old voicemail icon to clear.

You just have to change the forwarding calls number to your Google Voice number. That should be all that needs to be done.

I had this problem too. You can change the forwarding numbers in the call settings or go to the Google voice web page and activite voicemail on the device.
This is what fixed it for me

Thanks guys. I've visited the voice web page and got the number there to input on the device. Hopefully that'll do it.
Clearing old VoiceMail Icon
Disable WiFi Calling
De-Activate Voice on Website from Desktop
Uninstall "Google Voice"
Open "Phone" - where you dial out to make calls
Press "Menu" and then "Call Settings"
Change Voicemail Setting to "Carrier"
Enter "Call Forwarding" Options
Leave the First Option Disabled
Disable the last Option, it will reset to your carrier's voicemail number
Make sure the 2-4 options all have your carrier's voicemail number.
Restart phone.
Call it from another phone and leave a voicemail.
Listen to and delete the new voicemail you just left.
Voicemail Icon cleared.
Now you should be able to setup Voice properly.
*NOTE*
Call Forwarding cannot be changed while WiFi calling is active.
Hope this helps.
Thanks
Thank you so much! That worked perfectly!
It appears that T-Mobile locks down the Voicemail settings (where you can configure the direct dial number for voicemail). GV fails to change that when installing the "Google Voice" Voicemail service.
So far's I can tell on my Amaze is this is the number dialed when you hold down "1" or call "123."
T-Mo reps told me this is a third party app problem, when I told them it was Google Voice, the reps said "Call HTC, it's a hardware issue." HTC's technical support had a good laugh at that. T-Mobile's reps are full of it; they just don't like changing the number.

Can't get google voice, voicemail to work

I am not getting any voicemails on Google voice. I have Google Voice selected for "Voicemail service" and I am running Wicked V2. I have never used Google voice before so I don't know if its Wicked or what. When I get a voicemail I get a notification saying that I have a new voicemail and when I tap the notification it dials to my voicemail over the phone. When I have a voicemail and open Google Voice, there is nothing in my inbox or under voicemail even after I refresh it.
if you log in to gvoice thru your web browser on your computer, in the settings it'll give you a forwarding code to type into your phone's dialer

Thanks. They should have that info in their app.
I concur. I'm wondering if it has something to do with the phone itself. In the past I never had to set it up this way

I figured out on my own after fumbling through the call settings then additional settings. Figured it out and it worked. 3 weeks layer I began to not get gv mails again.... Somehow the call forwarding reset itself to tmo voice mail. I called them and had them disable my vm feature and gv is back to normal fwiw

I managed to find the forwarding settings myself as well. Now I created a contact with Google's voice mail number because it was such a pain to find on their site. I'll be watching to see if it flips back to T-mobile.

I got mine to work.. finally as well.. but.. i still get my voicemail in Tmobile voicemail and Google voice.. weird.. but.. it works, lol
The fix I used on my phone and works is to insert the following MMI code into your dialer as well as ensuring Google voice is selected as your voice mail **004*1412532****# (insert your Google Voice number after the *after the 004 and insert a # after your number. A message should come up on your phone saying the change was successful. This will also change your forward settings phone numbers as well
