How did you uninstall the voicemail? I would like to do this as well, but I don't know what it is called. Do you know the name of the .apk/.odex?
Thanks.

Would you happen to have a copy of the visual voicemail??

Post #125 has the link to the Voicemail app. Just throw it onto your SD card and run AppInstaller. Worked perfect for me when I accidentally lost my Voicemail on my Sprint Hero.
I'm not sure about uninstalling it, but i would assume its the same filename, so in your CMD window, you could rm it...? I don't know for sure since i didn't uninstall mine, just seemed to have gone missing.

Did you ever find the answer. I have the same issue with my EVO.

Why don't you try using Google Voice for voicemail, it will give a notification.

You can't just go sign up for an account. He'd have to wait like a month for an invite.

I have Google Voice, but it's doesn't have visual voicemail. And the android app does not allow you to have multiple accounts.
I am having a issue were when people leave me a voicemail, I don't receive a notification at all, I only know I have a voicemail message if I call my number. The only way people can reply to me through VVM is if I send them a VVM.
I also have a touch pro 2 with XAndroid and have VVM installed on it, and when I try to send the [email protected] text message I get //Androidrovisioning: unsuccessful
Anyway to get past this provisioning from sprint?

It is Sprint_VM.apk It does not work on Gingerbread yet.

You can push the Sprint_VM.apk to /system/app folder using adb and it works as long as you are not on Gingerbread. If you don't know adb you can to to www.geekfor.me and use the Kitchen tool.

Google Voice

T Mobile Apps
I can't get any of them to work with the new plan which is a bummer cause I love visual voicemail. I can't get the my account app to recognize device. Hope they fix this soon!
Edit: You guys are right Google Voice is way better and transcribes the voice mails which is hella cool!
Try setting it up with WiFi off.
use the google voice voicemail its built in. its much better and it gives you a transcript of messages(it writes it out)

Are you sure it is asking you to "upgrade" and no "setup"? I had to call TMo and have them 'flip the switch', so to speak, on VVM.

I'll try giving them a call, just wasn't sure if it was compatible with the plan out right now or not.
try this
o enable the visual voicemail on T-Mobile, you need to do the following:
* Download the app and install it
* Call T-Mobile
* The rep can't add it automatically via the account features list -- it will error out
* The rep has to first manually update your IMEI number (of which you need to read from the back of your box)
* Then the rep has to wait for that to update (took several minutes)
* Then the rep has to go back to the features list and then add visual voicemail manually
* Try changing your phone from Unknown Device to MyTouch 3G at my.t-mobile.com and add the Visual Voicemail under Services
* If your voicemail is still being delivered the traditional way wait until you receive a text from T-Mobile (about 24 hours) stating that your account change has been updated, it will then work via the application

question about Google Voice
I just set up google Voice.
How do Is top it from routing duplicate incoming texts to both my regular message app, and google Voice
Go into your default messaging service and access the settings in the menu. Disable notifications, and you should only get notifications from Voice.
Errr... not sure if this is exactly what you were asking. You are getting texts from your google voice number on your normal phone number?

What's happening, is that all of my Google voice texts are also showing up in my regular message app. Because they're also beig sent to my regular mobile number
Sounds like something that is an issue with google voice. Probably should check the settings on that. Almost seems like there is a forwarding issue going on.
I figured it out here:

Damage Control 1.0 Voicemail issue

I know I know..
I have searched and searched so please dont flame me.
I love this Damage Control ROM.
Everything is perfect with the exception of voicemail.
I have no icon. The only way to check it is to call my cell number and go thru that process. Which is not convieient.
What am I missing? Everything is perfect with that exception.
I am on Sprint if that helps.
Should I update my radio? Mine is stock.
Does it need the newest radio flash to work properly?
Thanks for any help.
none of the 2.1 roms support sprints visual voicemail you need to use google voice or some other app like you mail.
and is it really that hard to to long press on 1 to check your VM?
No offense, But you must have not read or searched hard enough. But the visual voicemail doesnt work with any of the 2.1 roms on sprint.
As far as I know there arent any 2.1 sprint leaks, so no VVM until then.
And to get rid of the notification saying you have one. Just goto Settings -> Call -> Clear Voicemail Notification
I can't even get to my voicemail by dialing my number... how do I get my voicemail through GV?
yes.. you do need to search a little harder...
First..
Find the app "voice".. it has a phone on it.

There is not a fix until the Sprint rom comes out.
I have been using Google Voicemail. It actually works better than sprint visual voicemail. You will also get the transcription with it.

I dont use the handcent as the describe in here but its easy to figure out.
Oh yeah, if you want to use the sprint voicemail by pressing "1" you just have to change your voicemail service, Menu/settings/Call/Voicemail settings and then put your number. You will still get the text of a voicemail with the error but you will know you have voicemail

[Q] How to set up Voicemail?

It keeps re-directing to Verizon's Voicemail and of course, my Galaxy is unlocked so I'm not using Verizon.
EDIT: Let's say I get a voicemail, when I click the notification, it redirects me to the Verizon Voicemail to "verify my verizon account" If I manually input the voicemail number, it also redirects me to Verizon.

It didn't work. I rooted the phone, installed Titanium Backup, deleted the Visual Voicemail apk from Verizon and restarted the phone. Now when I dial *86 for the voicemail, the call automatically ends and touching the notification for "new voicemail" also just calls my name and ends the call. No ringing no, nothing.
Did you get fix the error? for now you could dial our own number to access voicemail ex: 347-xxx-xxx
this will connect to Simple Mobile Voicemail system

Interesting thing, I also have Simple Mobile and can't change the voicemail number, it's just stays as *86.... BUT when I put inactive sim-card from T-Mobile, I COULD change the number and COULD saved it, when switch again to Simple Mobile, the problem came back... again *86.... that's crazy...

OP6 + Google Dialer = Vo VVM

Coming from a OP5T, using the Google Dialer with T-Mobile here in the US, my visual voice mail (VVM) worked as expected. However, on the OP6, I can not enable VVM. When I go to Settings -> Voicemail there is not option to turn VVM on/off as there is on my OP5T. Anyone else seeing this issue our know how to fix it? I can put SIM back in the OP5T and VVM will work on it....
I'm wondering if you're actually using the Google Dialer, because that's not what comes on the phone. I'm using the modded Google Dialer on T-Mobile and visual voicemail is working fine for me. I didn't have to change any settings other than change the default phone app to the modded Google Dialer.

Can you check your settings on your Google Dialer? When I go to settings -> voicemail, I do not have an option to enable visual voicemail. see attached image.
My settings look like yours.
I'm not too familiar with VVM, but I assume you just mean the tab for voicemails with the play/pause/delete buttons for each voicemail? If so, that's working for me. If it's something more, then I'm not sure. My voicemail is empty right now so I can't show you what it looks like, but I had a few voicemails earlier and I deleted them from that tab. I can't send myself a test message until tomorrow when I have access to a second phone.
I just changed over to the Magisk version, since the modded version I had made the notification answer/decline buttons not work, so I wouldn't recommend it. But it can be found here.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-google-phone-v14-0-175904292-bubble-t3708218
I did notice that the voicemail tab wasn't there until I enabled phone permissions for Google Dialer app. But I'm guessing that's too obvious to be your problem.

Yeah, I am the one who originally made the Magisk version so it would work with OnePlus devices.... It's odd, my will not retrieve voicemails from T-Mobile but my OP5T would do just fine. For now, I just reverted to the google voice method and that is working. Odd.

So after testing today I'm leaving myself a few voicemails, neither the modded version of the dialer or the Magisk version seem to be showing the voicemails. I guess I might have seen them in the OnePlus dialer and that's where I deleted them. I can't be one hundred percent sure.
For now, I am just using the T-Mobile visual voicemail app.

Sorry, not to change subject, but the Magisk version of the Google Dialer support the Spam call detection? Figured I'd ask since both of you seem to be running that version.

Is that the same thing I am doing -- I have Verizon set to NOT send my missed calls to voicemail, but to forward it to my Google Voice number. Then my Google Voice is set to immediate Do Not Disturb and goes to voicemail.
I did that because Verizon's stupid free voicemail doesn't transcribe the whole thing and they make you pay to have more than 20 voicemails in queue.

Visual voicemail (Verizon)

I was curious if anyone else with Verizon had a problem in the stock phone app not being able to read your visual voicemail. After I get a voicemail the only time I can read it it's for a few seconds when I get the notification at the top of the phone. When you go into open the app all you can do is listen to them. I tried a bunch of different Google dialers which worked but no voicemail works with any of them.

I kind of got it working on the havoc ROM. Every now and then it says starting visual voicemail. But it's working
I am stock. Visual Voicemail has worked with my Verizon sim since day one for me.
Wth is visual voicemail? My first real smartphone
Visual Voicemail from Verizon essentially lists the voicemails you have on your account. It will typically list them in the dialer you are using. Instead of having to dial out and check your messages, you can simply click on it in the list. You can manage them that way too. One step further is having Visual Voicemail to Text which has the actual message transcribed into the feed so that you can read it versus listening to it.
I prefer using Google voice for vm you free transcripts texted to you
I think OP is talking about voicemail to text as I was having the same exact issue. It is really annoying. Especially when you have to pay $2.99/mo for the transcription.
Sent from my SM-G977U using Tapatalk
Anyone else, same thing happens to me. The notification has the transcript so I know it's "somewhere" but can't ever see it.
This is actually comprised of two underlying issues.... see my breakdown here:
