I recently installed CM10 and have not been able to listen to my voicemails. When I get a notification for a voicemail and try to call, it says "No voicemail number is stored on the sim card". Is there a number I can add to get this up and running? Tried using Google voice but it says there was an error forwarding the number. Anyone know how I can fix this?
Not sure how you could fix it permanently, but for a temporary fix just call your cell number on your phone and listen that way.

Thanks, that worked. Is this a known problem with installing an AOSP ROM? I'm coming from Verizon and I never had this problem.
I've actually had the same exact problem as you did. After days of searching, here's the solution:
Dial *#61# from your phone. AT&T will send you your voice mail number. Copy that down.
From the Dialer, hit Menu and go to Settings>Voicemail>Setup>Voicemail number. Punch in that number, and you're good to go.

I had trouble with this too. Go to the google voice webpage and verify your google number, youll get the same error if you try the mmi code given when you click 'activate'...so just get your google number and then on your phone settings under call forwarding change the forward number(s) to your google number, and keep the +1 in front. you may need to change your google number if this doesnt work, mine worked fine once i did that, but you might not have to. hope this helps.
Ya, right out of the box, setting up google voice didnt work properly. Had to manually set my forwarding numbers as my google voice. I had to do it manually, OH THE HUMANITY. Lol

Has anyone figured out a way to use Google Voice as the primary voicemail app?

Yeah, you go to the website
google.voice.com
and you can configure your settings there.
To my knowledge, there's no way to set Google Voice as the primary way to handle voicemail, like there is on the Evo 4G.
I don't have my phone yet (being delivered today), but why would using the instructions from the google voice website not work? What happens when you try?
I think it is *28 then your google voice number.
Google voice voicemail is set between the account and your GV account... it is completely unrelated to the phone. The app can retrieve the VM's and help you setup the voicemail, but it isn't required.
Its working for me.
Hey, quick question. I set up google voice, but now it's my primary phone number for when I text my friends. Is there a way to undo this? Even after uninstalling it, my primary texting number is my google voice number.
Login from a desktop and deactive your google number. You have a limited time before losing your sprint number.

If you go to the website voice.google.com - there's an option in there to integrate voicemail. On the phone settings you can click 'activate google voicemail on this phone'
basically it forwards the call at the last ring to your google voice voicemail and skips your sprint one.
Then that voicemail shows up in the google voice app, or you can set it to email you and even have a written transcript.
That's what I'm set up like. I dig it.
Works fine here. I had a little trouble getting it activated... I think this was because I was expecting it to switch too quickly after I set it up. You have to give it a few min/hours to start rolling your voicemail to Google Voice.
It will ask you to dial *38 and your number and it never works for me. Just make sure you have your sprint phone listed to forward to on the GV settings online and then install the app on your phone and go through the setup on the app and your voicemail will use GV...at least it does for me.
I had to remove it on my NS4G, caused me nothing but problems. And then when I did remove it I had to call sprint and have them reset my account because I was unable to receive calls and callers just got hung up on rather than connected to my voice mail.
I never let Sprint take over my GV number...I made it so I still had the choice to use my sprint or GV number. I ported my number to GV so I could go to any carrier I wanted to and have as many phone ring on the same number. I have a boost phone also that rings my GV number.
I have never been able to get voice mail without the app while my number was integrated. How do you get voicemails without the app? Do you just call your own number?

That didnt work out so well for me. If you ported for free because you are on sprint as soon as you cancel your service that number is inactive. I had to choose between my number and this phone and I took the phone and dont regret it one bit

Are the numbers saved in the phone contact with the area code? if not...try adding the area code.
If that doesn't work, try uninstalling google voice, delete the google voice add-on in your sprint.com account, reboot your phone and then reinstall and resetup
Its working now . I think it was a hiccup in Google voice . Thanks for the help

Before uninstalling Google voice, I suggest logging out in settings/more before anything. With (conditional) call forwarding, it can be a nightmare trying to troubleshoot if you pull the plug on it before logging out. My gf had a gv problem this week. I suspect it was user error in setting up "properly" and uninstalling before logging out. Sprint couldn't help her (she is stubborn and wouldn't listen to me) and she started flipping out. After I got her to install it again and log out, then the problem disappeared.
I just bought my T999 two days ago, and am just getting a feel for this phone. I've not rooted it yet, and may not for a bit. I haven't decided.
I have rooted several other phones, so I'm comfortable with that process. I just want to get a feel for a few weeks, and even see when/if 4.1 gets officially released in the short-term.
That said, I've been using GV since it came out; really before it was officially released. I load it on my phone, and when I go to configure the voicemail, it fails. I've called TMO tech support, and of course they don't want to touch this.
Any thoughts on this? Is there truly an incompatibility with GV on the T999 as the TMO rep told me? I've searched the Apps forum, and could not find anything remotely related to this issue.

You have to go to Google voice settings Not just your Google settings. It walks you thru on setting up new/different phone number

If you are on T-mo prepay, they don't support conditional forwarding. However any t-mo number can get to a tech support (call a few times if need to) and they can just change your voicemail number in the system to your GV number.
Alternatively you can follow GSM codes and Google Voice instructions.
Type into your phone...
*004*1XXXYYYZZZZ# dial
That will forward (missed calls, busy, and phone not reachable) calls to that number.
Also, on T-mo (not prepay) and AT&T you can set the number of seconds before the ringing call goes to VM.
*61*1XXXYYYZZZZ**10# dial
Where 10 is the number of seconds the phone rings before going to VM.
You can look it up, but valid numbers there are 5, 10, 15, 20, 30.
You can save that as a contact and change the time it rings based on location.
(If you have two GV numbers, you could direct missed calls to one voicemail box,
and phone off /no service calls to another number for a different message)
Enjoy.

Also, just FYI, install the GV app on any android phone (since the G1), and it will allow you to toggle outgoing calls being made through GV or your call service (or prompt you each time you dial). So if the GV app is running you can call someone and the caller ID is your GV number. The phone says something about calling 1-800-whatever which is google's relay number. The app also allows you to listen to voicemails and full access to the same stuff in the webpage (ie. send SMS from the app, block calls, etc).
The only difference is that Sprint has totally integrated GV numbers with their phones, so you can actually send and receive calls from GV number without the app running or intermediate 800 number. (maybe they pseudo port your GV number)
Also protip, you can transfer GV numbers between different gmail accounts. You can even swap two GV numbers but it requires a third dummy google acct. The only thing in transferring is that you must have different pin numbers and the receiving account must not have any GV number associated with it (or you just transfer it to a new dummy acct). You can also have the same GV number listed on two gmail accounts is they both set the number to Home instead of Cell, but that means you cannot get SMS forwards. Google has a special webpage for the transferring process, which happens almost instantly.

You go to voice.google.com and add a cellphone to your account (or edit the number the acct is associated with). When you do this google with call you and you have to enter in two numbers. Or if you do not already have a GV number it will walk you through the process (pick a GV number, enter your cell number, confirmation, done)
Go into settings from your dialer, call forwarding, and then change the last three numbers to your gv number then it will work properly. For some reason the app doesn't do that part properly on our phones.

Im confused. I use Google Voice for my voice mail. I set it up through my account on-line. So if I dont answer a call..it goes to Google Voice . Then I get a text with the transcript or i open google voice app and get my VM. Unless you guys are talking about something different.

I don't use my GV number as my main number. I still use my regular cell number. There is supposed to be a way where google voicemail will pick up your REGULAR cell calls instead of the att voicemail.
EDIT:
I just followed the instructions here: http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/voice/P2zifCPaYJE from Fluididdy and it worked. I had to change my phone to MOBILE (I had it to "home" as I was sharing it with another voice number). It's working now!

Okay this is weird, I had a Galaxy S2 that I must have flashed new ROMS on at least 50 times and reinstalled all my software but this is the first time I've ever left my phone stock and now Google Voice doesn't work.
I've disabled Visual Voicemail by freezing it so it's not in the picture.
Voice is installed it's all signed in, background sync is on but when a call comes in it goes to TMobile's voice mail instead. Checked settings and voicemail is set to Google Voice.
Maybe because I never stayed on stock before I'm missing something?
Perplexed,

try uninstalling and reinstalling it, that will probably work.

Same issue here. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling voice, but still no luck. It's not a huge deal, but still kinda annoying.
Make sure your conditional call forwarding is set to forward to googles voicemail and not tmobiles. Did you just get a new sim card by any chance? The forwarding settings are stored on the sim card and I've had ROMs that simply wouldn't save the new voicemail forwarding settings... If this is the issue then go back to stock, reprogram your sim then reflash your desired ROM. Voicemail isn't handled through the "my carrier" or "Google voice" setting, its handled through conditional call forwarding.

If you are on T-mobile prepaid plan, you do not have conditional call forwarding so you will not be able to use GV instead of T-mo's voicemail.
Problem solved. Just manually set the forwarding numbers (when busy/unreachable/unanswered) to your Google voice phone number. If ur like me and don't remember what it is just go to Google voice app settings and scroll down. Also make sure your voicemail is set to Google voice. This is all done under call settings. Ezz pzzzy

I solved the problem by calling TMO customer service and having Visual VoiceMail removed from my account. Nasty stuff, that app. It hijacked my voice mails, so that when I accessed them through normal voice mail retrieval, I never had any new messages...they were all automatically marked as "saved." :silly:

I had this same issue. It appears that Google Voice no longer sets up the call forwarding for you. I had to go into the conditional call forwarding and it worked after that. I believe they're there for unanswered, unable to reach and unavailable and they forward after that.
I had the same issue as everyone - go through the online setup from voice.google.com again and it will give you the magic # code that will update all your call forwarding and that does it for me - in addition to the settings menu that allows google voice to handle my voicemails.
Now i see voicemails in the call log and google voice is integrated there.
dont recall the hascode - but it will contian your google voice number as the end portion - this will forward all calls (from the network side) based on the status of your phone (out of range, no answer, and rejected) - you could have them each go to a different number if you really wanted to
