[Q] Voicemail no longer working - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

I'm running CM11 with 4.4.2 and everything was working great. Today I tried to launch my sprint vvm app and it crashed. Opened it again, crashed. Rebooted, app crashed. So at this point I uninstalled and reinstalled the app and the installation fails.
I've tried every apk I can get my hands on and they all fail the installation.
I'm not sure where to go at this point and I'm hoping someone might have some advice or a fix that can remedy my problem. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
edit: Also, I've tried some of the other free voicemail apps but it appears that my calls are not being forwarded by Sprint. None of those free programs are working for me. =/

have you tried google voice? if you try it, just use it for voice mail and do not associate it with your sprint account.

That's an idea I had not thought of yet. I will give it a try and see if it works. Thanks for the reply.
edit: fixed a stupid question I asked.

Interesting because i updated and got the fc as well. Not sure if its b/c o the recent update or not since i switched from beta cm7 to bonsai, then started getting fc when i installed gv.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, same fc. Cleared data didnt work for me.
Oh and the error i am getting is the java.lang.nosuchmethoderror
Uninstall updates and uncheck box for automatic updates. A lot of people are seeing this.
I recently put the phoenix rom on my phone after having probs with hawk v. 2 for whatever reason. As a noob, phoenix is great as it is everything i could ask for and more. However, I put google voice on my phone. When I used google voice on stock, everytime i would dial a number it would ask if i wanted to use google voice or my number. After I put google voice on phoenix, it would automatically just use my google voice number by default and I could not keep it from doing so in the setttings of the app. Consequently, I deleted google voice and it seemed to have left a scar on my phone. Everytime I call someone, it calls from my gv number. Anything i can do have my original number pop up on peoples phone? And is gv simply not compatable. Messages are also not showing up in the sprint voice mail. Instead I am getting transcribed texts.

I manually updated it. Luckily had a TI backup. Clearing market data gave me back the market.
I'm on Bonsai.... so I don't know why the update fc's!

[Q] Voice actions with Google Search in CM10.1VJ

Hi Everyone,
I installed the 4.2.2 ROM from vijendrahs, which runs great on the Desire.
But I cannot get Voice Actions to work. When I say "call xxx", I get the web search result of "call xxx" instead of the "xxx" contact like I expected.
Voice parameters are in french, but I tried english and it does not work better.
Has someone figured out a fix for this yet?
Thanks,
lejnfns
I'm experiencing the same problem on my GN2 (SCH-i605) running imnuts' Tweaked VZW remix. Every time I try a voice command it performs a web search instead. The developer of the ROM stated that it's working fine on his so that leads me to believe it's probably a setting we've accidentally toggled or maybe an app we have that's interfering with it and not the ROM itself.
I hope someone can shed some light on the situation.
Thanks,
Bodie
Edited to add solution: I went into the app manager and found com.google.android.voicesearch and cleared the cache and data and then did the same for the Google Search app and rebooted. As of right now mine is working again

Awesome, I'll try that!

phone randomly goes directly to vm, no notification call occured, cont asks to reset

Reset app preferences! Any fixes for these issues?? Have cleared cache partition,. got 2 new sim cards to no avail. Randomly mine n my husbands phones go straight to vm without ringing or showing missed calls!! Same for my son in another state. Cust svc is no help. Have cleared app preferences multi times. Anyone else with these issues?! Any help appreciated.
I had that on mine when I was running 4.3, but only with wifi calling. first random incoming calls, then all incoming calls would go straight into voice mail and then I couldn't even call out on wifi. Temporary solution was to change preferences to cellular calling from wifi calling. Then I updated to 4.4.2 (nf4) and its fixed now and it works fine with wifi calling and all. I suspected t-mo made some changes in their server software and either accidently or on purpose never tested properly with older firmware, introducing some bug, but feel free to call it wrong guess. The reason I suspected problem was on their side, was that I have not updated or changed my phone at all, since before problem started and installed probably only 1 new program, which later I deleted it as first suspect, but deleting it didn't fix the problem at all.
Did you ever install google voice? I was having similar problems because I had installed google voice, then removed it, thinking everything would be fine. It turns out you need to change something on your Google account also. There was a previous thread about google voice.
No google voice in my case. The program I installed I think it's called Wechat for text, voice and video calls over internet. I deleted it after my family came back from overseas vacation since no longer needed, but that didn't fix wifi calling until firmware update. Could have been some settings got messed up and weren't restored until update.

I reflashed firmware from SamMobile. Appears to be working better. Difficult to tell 100% yet. Appears the app prefernce requests are no longer an issue.

No SMS App Installed For Google Now

On my stock Note 2, all of the sudden...out of no where.... google now shows "no sms app installed" when I try to send a text. The Samsung sms app is there and I can send texts manually, but not through google now. It was working a few days ago, not sure what broke. Any suggestions?
I have exactly the same problem as of about 2 weeks ago. I have hard reset twice and no change. I have run out of ideas, if anyone has solved this I would live to know how.
I have tried everything as welk with no luck. The only thing that worked for me is I flashed google now 3.4.16 and everything runs great.
So it's the google now app problem? Am faced with the same issue, where its says no sms app installed.

[Q] Email App shows as ACTIVITY_ENTRY_NAME now do I fix?

Recently the Email application seems to have renamed itself on the App screens to be called ACTIVITY_ENTRY_NAME instead of Email. Everything works but I'm so fussy that this annoys me and I'd like it to say Email like it used to.
Does anyone have the stock email APK so that I can try reinstalling this to see if that fixes the issue. Or can anyone recommend any ways to correct this.
Have done a reset of the device and have also upgraded to 10.5.1 and rerooted again and nothing has fixed it.
The application name changed about the same time as all the issues with Google Play Services stopped working messages occurring.
