How to stop texts from 9016 (Voicemail texts) - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

I have VVM installed. I don't know if it is the right version so if some could point me to the most recent version for GN2 that would be awesome. Anyways... How do I stop the actual text messages from appearing.
Note: I'm on CM10.1

I dont use VVM anymore, but when I did the only way that I found to fix it was to activate another phone on your line, then reactivate your phone on your account. I dont know why it worked, but it did.

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.

Sprint VVM?

I'm getting notifications in the notification bar saying there is an update available for Sprint Visual Voicemail. I go to download the update and no matter what rom I am on there is a package parsing error. How do I fix this?

If you aren't on a stock rom (rooted or unrooted) you will get the parsing error, I learned this the hard way. You could also look for the updated apk for it, but will end up getting texts about new voicemails. Unless you plan on be forced to like handcent good luck on figuring out how to stop the texts.

It's not worth the update... All it does is change the layout of voicemails a little and force a brought background.
I absolutely abhor bright backgrounds!

True... That would have been smart! Lol
I'm going to downgrade to the old version anyway, because the new version really only makes the solicitation for Sprint transcription larger and more in-your-face. There's not even a button to hide the ad anymore!

What don't you give Google Voice a try for voicemail. It is soo much better IMO.

Actually you don't need to use Handcent to ignore the texts. Just get an app like Super Private Conversation, There are others too I just use that one and have for years because it works. It allows you to block Numbers and send them to a separate call log or delete them all together. The best feature is I can use whatever text App I want.
I did the switch to google ... but I found that if you dont check the settings it sets the reject calls and makes you press 1 too accept the call ... otherwise it goes directly too voice mail and is supposed too act like a call screening feature ... which was driving me nutso ... and I dont remember seeing anything about that setting when setting up the google voice .. the only thing I remember was it said this will erase all your

Google Voice for Voicemail issues
Hey all-
I am running Blazer Rom ICS build on my Samsung, and ever since I update to it I both:
1) keep getting the Sprint Voicemail update notification.
& worse,
2) can't use Google Voice for my voicemail. Google Voice used to lead you through a step-by-step installation process where you could choose it as your voicemail and you dialed a special #. Can you still do this? Does anyone know the # you need to dial?
Thanks,
Mike
Where is this post going? And to the OP, you're welcome.

How do I get visual voicemail to work with miui.

So there are numerous posts and questions on how to get sprint visual voicemail working with miui or aosp roms.
For the life of me I can't get it to work no matter what method I use.
Can someone please help who has successfully got it working on there rom please reply with the exact steps you used.
Would really like to figure out the proper method on this.

Once you have it installed, click the mic icon up top on the right, record whatever(background noise is fine) then click send and send it to [email protected] this will provision the voicemail so that it works. You will receive annoying texts from 9016 everytime you get a new voicemail but using the spam block settings in you messaging app will hide/block them
I like to break stuff!
I have tried that numerous times. All I get is a bunch of 9016 messages but no voicemail ever comes through.

That's weird. Have you tried making a backup in titanium backup of it working on a tw rom and then restoring the app and data on miui?

That's gonna be my next option.

Unfortunately it doesn't work properly on every rom, because if 9016 texts get blocked to the phone completely, then vvm never receives the message, vvm has to receive these messages in order to function. The rom I'm running has a blacklist option that allows me to block 9016 from messaging app only, keeping 9016 coming through to phone, which vvm then picks up perfectly. Their are apps to do this, but some block it totally, which is not what you want.

Sprint voicemail

This isn't really ROM specific but I'll ask anyway since you're all much smarter than myself.
I am not receiving voicemail either through the visual voicemail app or when holding 1 in the dialer. I'm calling using my wife's phone and it lets me leave a message but I never receive it on my phone. Thoughts?

i would suggest downloading google voice

[APP] Sprint Voicemail on AOSP

Attached is the Sprint Visual Voicemail application, just download it like normal and it should work perfect. This is for AOSP ROM's that don't come with a built-in Voicemail application. I know some people use Google Voice but this is for people who don't use Google Voice.
To get rid of the text messages alerting you of a voicemail (9016) then follow these instructions:
1. Download Mr. Number from the Play Store, Here.
2. Block "9016" from text messages.
3. No more annoying texts!
Enjoy!

Thanks epic. Google voice really sucks and pretty annoying when receiving a call.

Can you use the Sprint Voicemail app if you have your sprint # associated with Google Voice?
I'm recording this message and sending it through gmail? if so, I got a domain name not found. I could just be doing it all wrong.

The voicemail app puts me in gmail when I hit send or else it pops the onscreen keyboard and will not actually "send" the message.

That method was for an older voicemail (I didn't realize that), try the new method and let me know.

Hmm... I don't have the LGOG anymore so I can't test. Have you gone through all the settings on the voicemail to make sure notifications are on?
Yeah I did, I think it just doesn't like me, I've tried everything

It should just work. It just sounds odd. Did you go into apps and clear cache and data for voicemail app? Go into recovery and wipe cache/dalvik cache and fix permissions?
