google voice started to show missed calls, how do i turn it off

recently, my google voice app has been showing missed calls when i open the app. i don't need to see it in google voice since it shows in my call log. all i want google voice to show is my voicemails. can i turn off what labels get synced, or just turn off the option. i can't find it in settings. it wasn't doing this before so i'm not sure if a recent update started this.
does anyone know how to do this?
I think u can change it in GVoice settings thru web browser, I've actually changed it before to show those missed calls.

??? its sunder settings/calls
Missed Calls
Place missed calls in the inbox
Send missed calls to my email
the thing is i already checked the browser setting and to place missed calls in the inbox is not selected, yet it's still doing it.
My Samsung skyrocket is doing this same thing and its driving me NUTS! Any solutions yet?
Ive got this problem too and tried to fix via the web interface -- didn't work. The best work around is to go to labels and select inbox and the messages go away. Quite annoying for sure.
i tried to disable the messages label, but i can't find how to do that. i don't want to be selecting the label everytime. that's even more annoying.
anyone know how to fix this

[Q] weird GPS change, and also not getting voicemails

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

Phone Contact keeps going to Voice mail

OK guys here's a strange one to figure out. Have the wife's number in my contacts and all of a sudden all her calls were going to voice mail. Text messages were coming in OK. Was driving me crazy. I checked the Block list and nothing there. I restarted the phone and same. Was about to reset phone so I decided to try to delete her contact on phone and recreate.
Found out that when you go into a specific contact, hit edit and then click on three dots on upper right you'll see option to delete and Behold, the bottom option on that screen shows a check box to allow All calls from that number to go straight to voice mail.
Anyone have an idea how this option was checked? The wife's suspicious
Thanks

Galaxy Watch - Phone App - contacts scrambled

hey all - does anyone have this issue that i have...
tried to place call from dialer on galaxy watch, pictures and names of people in phone list do not match the phone number, and what is more strange is when i clicked a contact, knowing the name was wrong, and dialed the number i wanted to dial, when it started dialing, it showed the wrong name but a different wrong name???
EDIT: it also looks like my messages on the watch are scrambled too.
I have reset my watch several times and the mixed up contacts are different every time. i dont know what is going on or how to fix.
any suggestions?
