Sprint voicemail - Sprint LG Optimus G

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 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.

Visual Voicemail doesn't work

OK, so I'm rooted on AKOP, but this happened when I was still on stock.
I get texts that there is visual voicemail activity, then I have to go to the app and manually sync the voicemail to get it to appear and download.
Then when I delete the voicemail, I get another annoying text that says there has been "visual voicemail" activity.
Any provisioning ideas or fixes? Sorry if this has been asked already. I'm on my GN and did a search w/ no luck. My "My Verizon" also doesn't work if that's helpful. Thanks in advance!

I've called Verizon and they told me they'd call me once there is an answer but for now I should use a different texting app so for me hand cent and just block texts. Its a pain.

Yeah, but those texts are literally the only notifications I get for voicemail now, so I would hate to stop them. Really annoyed.

Just discovered a lot of people are having the same issue after upgrading.
Does anyone know where to find a Galaxy Nexus visual voicemail. apk with a build prior to 2.0.5? Thanks!

Oh wow sorry I missed that... I get the voicemail notifications and the texts so I have no idea. Would going to an older version really fix it?

Only one way to find out! Can anyone link to Visual voicemail 2.0.4 for the GN or earlier? Please?!

Well this is probably not an answer to your problem, but save the 2.99 a month you pay for visual voice mail and switch to Google Voice.
This happened to me when I first rooted my TBolt and it was annoying, until I activated GVoice on my phone. Have not looked back since.

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.

Does AT&T have a free voicemail app like Sprint?

I can only find the pay visual voicemail app. Sprint had an app where the voicemail would be sent to your phone and you could listen to the sound file without calling your voicemail. Does AT&T not have anything like that?
Before anyone says it, I don't want to use Google Voice since I want that to be a separate phone number.

Try Visual Voicemail Plus. It even works with aosp.aokp, cm9, cm10, etc.
I ise att's visual voicemail app...not the att messages app. Do a search for it here on xda. Make sure you are provisioned for visual voicemail.
That's the link I posted.

Doh!!!!
I have used this AT&T Visual Voicemail App since the Original Note.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.att.mobile.android.vvm
Before opening it for the first time you need to call Customer Service and have them completely reset your voicemail.
Once they reset your voicemail open your AT&T VVM App and go through the steps.
It works for me every time.
Good luck
Sorry guys. When I said free, I meant completely free. No app cost, no monthly cost (don't want to pay for visual voicemail).
To those that suggested Google Voice, did you even read my original post? I want to keep my Google number separate from my regular number. Am I missing something here as to why people suggested it despite my OP?
Anyway like I was saying, Sprint provided a free voicemail app that would allow you to listen to your voicemails without calling it up. It would send the voicemail to the app whenever you got one.

Did you read MY post? I linked you an official At&t app that does exactly what you're asking. All you need to do is call At&t to have visual voicemail provisioned and it's free.

I got the same error. If you just change your voicemail number to your GV number it will work. Also go to google voice on the web and follow the instructions to deactivate and reactivate your phone.

What's wind ?
If you go into call settings what's your voicemail settings? My carrier ?
For ATT, all you have to do is press #1 on dialer and it dials voicemail number.
