GPS:
after installing FreeGS3 rom.. i noticed that it's locking and directions / VISUAL guidance is correct.. but it kept telling me to "make a left on Sunset" and there was NO friggin' Sunset street around.. every verbal command it gave me (whether visually it was telling me to get on the 10, exit garfield, or whatever).. it was saying, verbally, "make a left on Sunset"
so i figure it coulda been the modem, flashed Galaxy-S-fre3-LJ7FirmwareModemAIO.zip .. and now the directions are still correct and all, and verbally it'll say "go straight" or "make a left" with appriopriate timing.. but it USED TO say "make a left on Ramona" or "go straight, then make a right on Peck"
...does any one have any clues how I can fix this? it's not broken, just not really 100% working either
Voicemail:
i noticed that after activating google voice, i stopped getting voicemail notifications / messages. i didn't like GV so i untangled it from my Sprint account and now.. when i dial in to change my voicemail greeting, it doesn't save. i've left messages on my cell from my business line and they're not even getting saved, as in, when i dial in to check messages, those messages are not there. i think i've read about issues with GV and VVM before but.. it seems like my Sprint voicemail is just not saving ANYTHING.. any clues what i can do?
EDIT: I called Sprint and it WAS GV messing things up.. they walked me through resetting a bunch of stuff and it works again now so if anyone else is having voicemail issues after untangling GV from your phone, best bet could be to just call Sprint. Still need ideas/help with the GPS thing though

My HTC Incredible is display a voice mail but when I access it, it stated no message available. So how do I remove this from my notification? I cannot seem to get rid of it, it is getting anoying. TIA.
I had the same thing when I first install gvoice on my android.
That is actually a new voice mail on your Verizon voice mail service.
I think I cleared it by pulling down the notification bar and using the "clear" button in the upper right hand corner.
If you feel you need to listen to it, you may have to go to your settings menu, then call menu to re-enable your VZ voice mail... I've never done this and I believe it could take hours before it actually takes affect.. And then you will need to return your voice mail to GV when you're done.
I believe it will take hours because when I installed GV my GV VM took about a day to be default.
I don't see the clear option when I drag it. I will try to change my PocoMail to VZW and back to see if this Wii work. Thx.
I finally figure it out, as Luvit stated, the notification is for VZW voice but since I choose gvoice as default, it always call gvoice. No wonder I have no message. I have to call my VZW vm and delete it everything is fine now. Thx.
Okay guys, I have searched on Google, and found a few possible solutions to my problem, but was not successful in my attempts. I know I've seen threads pertaining to this type of thing, however the xda search is currently down, and I'm losing my patience. I never had any issues with voicemail before, but recently I switched from Myn's to the CM Wimax alpha 3 ROM. While I was on that, visual voicemail didnt work, and I started getting texts from 9016, telling me that I had a voicemail. I didn't pay much attention to it, because I thought that VVM was a lost feature on CM. Anyways, I switched back to Myn's, however the VVM still won't work, and I still recieve those texts, which I never got prior to trying CM. The only way I can get a voicemail is to actually call from my phone, and enter my passcode and what not. Based on the stuff I found on google, there was a number I found to call, to try to deactivate, which was 14089700000. I couldn't figure out how to deactivate, and gave up on that. I also found info saying to use the VVM app to compose a message and send it to [email protected]. I don't know if that works, because for some reason my phone won't send that message. It just says "message undelivered", and retrying yeilds nothing. I tried clearing the data from the VVM app, and when I restart the app, it says that it's authorizing my info, but then says error, connection timed out, your VM service won't be interrupted. I'm confused and out of ideas, and without the xda search, I'm lost. Thanks in advance guys.
Anyone?

Alright from my experience Sprint VVM never worked right with CM at all. I always just used google voice and set up the forwarding by following the instructions on google (something like *28###-###-####). However it seems like something got messed up in the voicemail setup. I would go into settings applications manage applications all, scroll down to Voicemail, Clear Data and Force stop. Hopefully this will reset the application and make you provision it again. You can also try by dialing *38 to make sure you have everything forwarded correctly. By doing this it should revert your forwarding back to Sprints original VVM provisioning. Judging by the fact that you know how to switch between roms I'm assuming you are not incompetent. Also make sure this: go into setting call and make sure your voicemail service is set to My carrier and then go into voicemail settings. Other than that I have no idea what to do.
P.S. I looked at your signature and you still have the old PRI and Radio. Shouldn't have anything to do with it but if you revert back to stock and take it into Sprint, they will ask you to update everything.

Thanks for the reply. I've tried dialing *38 already, made sure that voicemail was set to 'my carrier', made sure it was set to my phone number, i tried sending '[email protected]' using the compose feature of the vvm app. For some reason, that message wouldn't send. It just keeps saying, message undelivered. I was able to nandroid back to another backup of RLS5 that I had, and was actually able to get it working. It's just on Myn's beta for the Z ROM that I can't get it to work, however many other people are stating that it does indeed work on that build. I don't know, I gave up with it I guess, I switched to google voice, and that seems to be working okay. Thanks for the suggestions though.

Ya no problem man....I really really like google voice but I just decided to stay with Sprint VVM. Hopefully some day they will make voicemail transcription free for Sprint.
I root and flashed my HTC EVO 4G to cricket using Jiminy rom.
baseband: 2.15.00.11.19

I used this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=934417&highlight=flash+evo+cricket
2 weeks into having switched to cricket my phone has started sending a lot of calls directly to voice mail. Even when I have full reception and the phones are right next to each other. I went into the individual contacts to make sure the SEND to voicemail was off.
I checked my voicemail settings and they are with my number. I even did a NANdroid restore all the way back to the original ROM.
Around the same time as the problems started I had been trying to set up visual voice mail with Google voice and this other service. Neither worked, so I deleted the apps.
Has anybody have experience with similar issues?
I have the same problem and it sucks; so far, I haven't found a solution for that. And I honestly don't wanna change phones.
Im sorry but thats the way Criket service is and always has been.
Well I'm trying to figure out why my voicemail notifcations when I first got the Evo onto Cricket didn't work. I jumped around on ROMS and then they did work. Now once again they don't work. Problem is I can't figure out which ones worked.
As for your problem with them sending to voicemail directly. Sh*t happens. The only thing you can really check is with whomever called and see if it rings or just goes directly on their end. If its direct it might have some thing to do with your PRL or I have noticed that if my phone is doing something with the connection like syncing or whatever it feels like i won't get the call even though it will others. kingtheproducer is right though its Cricket and they don't care about a lot when it comes to customer service. Can't even talk to someone if your phone is listed CPE depending on the agent.
To get Google Voice to work you just forward your calls that you don't answer to your Google Voice number by dialing *74GoogleVoice# (not literally but your Google Voice number). As far as I know you can not port your number with Cricket to Google Voice. Just remember Cricket will not forward calls to a different area code so your Google Voice # must have the same area code as your phone.
Im not a big fan of Google Voice and how it sends you a billion notices for the same call. Never figured out how to get it to stop sending me emails, text messages and voicemail notifications for each call. And what good is visual voicemail when they cant transcribe the message worth a damn
In the past two days it seems my phone has been acting up. I can give you some information about it. I hope this is enough.
Phone - Epic 4g
Firmware Version - 2.3.5
Baseband Version - S: D700.0.5S.EI22
Kernel Version - 2.6.35.7-CleanGB-MTD-gb805fd3
Build Number - CleanGB-MTD-1.0.5
Hardware Version - D700.0.5
The phone has not been ringing. When I say has not been ringing I mean I am not receiving calls. This could be due to two reasons. 1. The person is either hanging up before the 5th ring(this seems to be the magic number for my phone to actually ring according to some self tests performed today). 2. My Google Voice is picking up before the 5th ring and the people are hanging up. Now I am also not receiving notifications of missed calls. My wife has ranted at me the last two days about not picking up her calls to which I reply I had no clue that there were calls to where I show her my call log and the lack of her calls. I have called Sprint and went through about 20 minutes of back and forth and a reset a couple of times then a punch in of a ## 6 digit number # and did a MSID input. The Sprint tech said that the phone was ringing on his end and when I picked up said it took a while but he did a few things and then it seemed to have sped up on his end. Now after hanging up with him proceeded to call my phone from the wifes and it still takes 5 rings for it to pick up. Is there anything I could do to fix this. Is this an issue on CleanGB. Thanks for the replies. Let me know if you need anymore information from me.
im just taking a stab here but I think I remember reading this is a GV problem and had something to do with GV settings . Like I said not sure but you might wanna start there.
That is what the Sprint guy started off saying. How would I go about fixing that? Do I need to uninstall Google Voice? Sign out of Google Voice? or what I am willing to try anything right now.
I don't use Google voice, but if it's easy enough to uninstall & install I'd try removing it and see if problem persists. At the least you can tell if it is the problem or not

Uninstalled
I have basically restored my phone back to factory. I am on EL30 now. I uninstalled google voice that way. I also went to google voice on the web and fixed my voicemail on there. My phone still wants to ring 5 times before it shows me I have a call coming through, however I also do not have any voicemail at all now. After about the 8th ring it gives me a This caller is unavailable message followed in spanish then an error 261 message. Gonna call sprint again in the AM and see if they can reset something for me.
VM app try phonefusion its what i have been using and it works great i didnt really like google voice i just need voicemail i dont need something thats going to record my calls and text messages
as far as your phone ringing i had this problem a while back and i think it had to do with a cell tower not sending the call out right or something like that anyway ask tech support how the towers are responding in your area
Thanks
I will ask them about the towers today when I call. I have to call them now I have no voicemail at all. The sprint voicemail isnt picking up anymore.
A while back I decided to try AT&T's Visual Voicemail (VV) instead of the built-in app. I'd like to remove it now and revert to the original app but I'm not sure exactly how.
My issues with VV which if I could rectify would make it so I would keep it....
When I get a call that goes to voicemail, the green "phone" app on the home screen will show that i had received a call, but it does not clue me in to that I have a message waiting for me in a different app (Visual Voicemail). So, unless I check VV every time I've missed a call, I have nothing showing me on the main screen that the message is sitting there waiting. At least with the built-in app that came on the phone, I'd see that there was a message waiting and I could have the phone call the voicemail number so I could retrieve the message..
So, either how do I make VV hook up better to the phone app so that it warns me, or if that can't be done, how do I disable VV and make calls go back to the original voicemail app that came with the phone? I'm not sure if simply deleting VV will make everything revert, or if I might need to contact AT$T or possibly have to do something else.....
BTT
Use Titanium Backup to freeze it, that's what I did and also if you have a Google Voice number you can fwd your voicemails to GV and integrate that into the call log and listen to your VM straight from the call log without the need for att voicemail app. You can search on XDA for the tutorial or if you wait I can look up the thread and place it here when I get home.

Thank you for your response! I ended up calling AT&T and having them disconnect it, from their end. They then had me dial "1" and set up my "old" voicemail. Now, at least when I get a voicemail I get some sort of notification, instead of having to open AT&T VV every time I pick up the phone to see if I might have missed a call and gotten a voice message.
If you could link to the tutorial, I'd appreciate it!!!
Curious though...when I go into the settings of the voicemail, the top line shows "Service" (followed by Setup, Notification Sound, & Vibrate). Clicking on "Service" I have a choice of "My carrier" & "Google Voice". I have it set to "My carrier".
I did install GV a while back but never used it. When I click on GV I do have a phone number listed, along with a "welcome" message form GV.. What to do with it, I don't know, so any tutorial or guidance would be quite helpful and appreciated!!!
There may be a multitude of great things that GV can do, but all I'm currently looking for is a way that when I miss a call and the caller leaves a message, that I get notified, and don't have to actively go searching on the phone just to see if I might have gotten a message. My notifications bar at the top is so overcrowded that a voicemail-waiting icon will typically not be on-screen. So, if GV will put a notification on either the lock screen or on the bottom of the home screen near the "phone" icon, I'd be a happy man!!
You could have just deleted the apk from system/app folder
