Hello,
Is there a way to change the voicemail number that is dialed when the voicemail icon is pressed?
when i pressed this icon for the first time I was prompted to enter a phone number, I entered the phone number but my carrier uses 121 as the number to dial.
My voicemail settings are disabled. I have Lyca mobile.
Thanks

Hye guys, I've searched everywhere looking for a way to actually change the speed dial number for voicemail.
Currently theres an entry as number 1 as Voicemail but there is no number attached to it. When I try and edit the number I'm not able to add an number, it has a drop down menu but it's blank and I cannot input a number into it.
I tried deleting the speed dial but then I'm unable to add a speed dial to number 1 as its reserved for voicemail...
I checked in Phone -> settings -> services and Voicemail and Text Messages has the right number for voicemail (121)
edit
using Black 2.0 with radio 1.38
thats because it hardcoded into the OS. the only thing you can do is set another speed dail number to your voicemails number and use that but 1 is always for voicemail sorry man

Nope not quite...
You can change it by going to settings-Phone-Services tab. It should be there with the Text MEssages Services Centre number.
I was able to edit mine when I tried YouMail. Not to mention how would these bad ass speedy cooked rom-a-lama-ding-dongs work?

sorry your right forgot about that.
Hmm
Well in phone -> settings -> services -> tect messages and voicemail the right numbers are there but the voicemail just seems to be missing from the phone
I'll give it a hard reset and see how it goes
If there is nothing registered in speed dial position 1 from before, isn't it just to push the square nr. 1 and enter it from there?
edit: that is the square no. 1 in speed dial menu
I use Youmail for my voicemail. I can't seem to set the voicemail speed dial key to use youmail's access number and get it to stick after a soft reset. I go to the Phone Settings, choose Services, then "Voice Mail and Text Messages". The phone then says it is reading the settings from the network and displays T-Mobile's voicemail access number under the "Voice Mail:" field. I change this to youmail's number, and click ok. The phone then says it's sending the information to the network. At this point the voicemail speed dial key correctly dials youmail's access number as long as I don't reset my phone.
Does anyone know how to make this setting stick?
Every ROM I've tried has this problem. I never tried doing this on the stock ROM, so I don't know if it's a problem with the custom ROMs or a T-Mobile problem.
Does anybody know where the settings are stored that "tell" the Voicemail button innotifications which number to dial?
Whenever you get voicemail, you get a notification that pops up with an option to call voicemail. On my phone, however, the standard voicemail setup in Settings/Phone does NOT store commas so you cannot have one-click access to voicemail. In fact, when setting up the standard voicemail, you can type the comma, but when you exit and come back in, the comma is automatically deleted, so it doesn't work. So, I had to setup a contact entitled Voicemail and inserted the voicemail telephone number, comma, password and # there. Commas are retained in contact phone numbers, so I call that contact, I indeed get one-click access. I also made that contact Speed Dial 2.
What I want to be able to do is alter the settings for the Voicemail option in notifications so that instead of dialing the via the Settings/Phone setup it will either:
a) dial the contact
b) dial speed dial 2
or
c) allow me to directly enter what I want in the configuration for that option.
Even if I have to edit the Registry, I have no problem. I just don't know where that info is stored.
Anybody got any ideas?
TIA
Does V not allow you to check your voicemail from your phone without the password? I'm with Sprint, and when calling voicemail from my device it doesn't ask, but when calling from another phone it will.

traditionally it is stored in speed dial position 1 so you can press and hold 1 to call voicemail. I know you can edit it on AT&T phones might be able to on Verizon too.

No Verizon requires you to enter a password even if you call from your cell phone.

Yes, while the default is Speed Dial 1, that is NOT what I'm looking for because, as I stated above, commas cannot be maintained withing the standard voicemail setup location. Thus, when you press "voicemail" when prompted for messages, you end up having to type your password.
I am looking for a way to "remap" that Voicemail option on notifications.
On AT&T it is P for pause not comma's have you tried that?
Or you could install PhoneAlarm it allows you to change your voicemail number.

That was the ticket! Thanks so much for the tip!
Im just running the stock gs3 rom from tmo.
No luck yet with google voice... the phone keeps reverting back to the default voicemail system.
Seems like tmobile is trying to force me to use their app?

there is an issue w/ the stock rom and GV
you can still get by it, just 'skip' the step to set it up as your provider, complete the rest of the setup, then go into your call settings on your S3 and change the settings accordingly.
step by step instructions:
- pull up the 'phone' app
- hit the menu button in the bottom left
- hit the menu button in the bottom left
- click 'call settings'
- scroll down to and select 'call forwarding'
- click 'voice call'
- then change the three settings 'forward when busy' / 'forward when unanswered' / 'forward when unreachable' all to your GV number (add a +1 before your 10 digit GV number)
fyi: google voice call log will still not show correctly on the stock rom in the phone log. when dialing out it will show the phone number it connected to at google voice.
hope this helps! please hit thanks if it helped!

Your step by step did not help me.
Im not trying to use google voice to make calls, but just change my voicemail provider.
When I did not answer my old phone it would say: this google voice subscriber is not available, etc.
And I would be able to view a voice-to-text version of my voicemails through the google voice app, as well as play them from the app.
Currently im forced to call my voicemail in order to listen to / delete my voicemails...

Log into google voice on your computer.
Go to settings >> phones
Find your phone. Click on the activate link if there is one. If there isn't click deactivate and then reactivate it.
I just went through the same thing the other day and I had to reactivate my phone for google voice. It involves dialing some crazy number from your phone, and basically thats it.

Is there anyway to make it show the number you are actually dialing instead of that stupid access number? That has been driving me crazy since release! There was some $2.00 app in the marketplace that was suppose to fix that,but it didn't and I had my money refunded immediately.
So I texted someone that I'm not suppose to as per my GF. So I go into message and delete the log. But the number still shows when I dial a number. For example if I type in the keypad 60455 the whole number would show up 6045557777. I need to get rid any trace of the number. Thanks in advance

Please bare with me, I just upgraded from the Galaxy S. The number is not in the call log which is different from the S. When I used to text I would need to clear both the message and the call log. But now with the S3, the call log does not record text history. But when I try to dial a number manually, the number that I texted (I cleared the message log) shows up.

Take a screen shot of what it looks like. I don't have this issue but I'm not on stock either. When you take the screen shot make sure to blur out the number.
