Would be helpful if you could share what ROM, modem etc. you're using.
Ideas? Google Voice. It's free and offers a much richer messaging experience over carrier-based voicemail systems. It transcribes viocemails and you can read and/or listen to them on the phone, from a PC etc.

What I've seen fix that in the past is leave yourself a voicemail... let it go to your phone... then delete it again.... also another note.... i always hit the * button to hang up.... not sure if that will work but it has for me in the past with other phones....

it most likely has nothing to do with your phone and everything to do without your service provider. the voicwmail server is incorrectly sending your phone the "new voicemail" signal. I had this same problem on my old blackjack 2 for the longest time. if it bothers you enough, try calling your service provider and get them to fix it.
Sent from a phone, playing a phone, disguised as another phone.

Just call AT&T and ask them to reset the voicemail and missed calls notification.
This happens to me soo often...

This fix has worked for me numerous times in the past.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App

Sorry to jump in on the OP thread but I have the same problem. On cognition was setting up google voice but I guess I had a voicemail sneak thru the system during the setup. I have tried switching back to my carrier voicemail leaving a message but it does not delete it. I am surprised there is not a service that cannot be force stop to remove it versus calling provider.
Thanks

Anyone get Sprints Visual Voice Mail working on ASOP 1.6

I have the app on my phone and i still recive the text messages from sprint but the program isnt detecting them
I haven't attempt to get the Sprint Visual Voicemail working on AOSP 1.6, but I will attempt to get it working, once quiet releases the update to AOSP 1.6 later this week.
Good Luck. I have been working on getting it working on 2.1 and ASOP 2.0...yeah...about that. Lots of variables in play
Cheers,
Matt

Ok thanks!!! i have the app on my phone already i guess it just needs some programing internally..
Anyone making progress on this?
I'm loving running 1.6, even though it's AOSP. Everything is great except I really like VisualVM.
I can't even find the apk to try...advice?

Since I have my voicemail re-assigned to Google Voice, no more worries of Sprint's version. Give it a shot, the app is awesome!

Got specifics on setting up GV's VisualVM going properly? All I would want from GV is the VisualVM. No need for any of the other stuff (calls etc.)
I'll play with it a bit now
I have changed over my voicemail to Google Voice and that seems to be the way to go for all platforms. I have even stopped giving out my regular phone number and instead opt to point people to the gv.
i am curios to know this too. I believed that the message sprint sends to triger visual voicemail was a MMS. Now that MMS has been resolved for this ROM, is visual voicemail working? Anyone tried it?
All you have to do to get the your VM to go to your GVoice acct is log into your GVoice acct on the computer, go to Settings & there will be an option, with instructions, on how to activate/setup it up.
Awesome. Apparently it was working for a good 30mins before I realized it haha.
I like this! I left myself a VM and got an email notification of it (on my phone) before I even opened the Voice app on the phone to make it check for VMs more often heh.
I'd use GV for VM over the Sprint one any day and on any ROM.

New Voicemail Update

Anybody who has the updated voicemail app care to share it with me.....
Im on boostmobile and i was checking the voicemail app out and it checked for an update and asked me to download it. i did but it doesnt install properly i think because it knows im not on the sprint network. now the notification is on the taskbar saying "there is an update available" for the app and i cant clear the notification unless i update! its driving me crazy lol
Look For It....Uncle Jimmy
i tried installing it straight from the apk and it didnt take, "application not installed". anyways after rebooting the phone, the notification was gone.

Try flashing the attached file.
Is the former attached APK the newest version? I don't think so?? What are the changes..
Take the app and put it in with system apps....then change permissions to match with the rest and reboot.
Newest version will end in .34
Can I just uninstall the old VVM and install the new apk?

hey guys i too have my evo on boost mobile everything works fine including 4g but my vvm refuses to work. it wont give me any notification when i have voicemail. when i tried the sending a voicemail to [email protected] didnt help. it says voicemail could not be provisioned contact customer service. any help would be greatly appreciated
Sprint VVM doesn't work on Boost, at least not on my EVO. And 4G worked at first (I guess phone was still activated on Sprint) but it stopped working, not logging in anymore. And I don't get the NEW VOICEMAIL notification either. I have to call voicemail to check if I have any. I also tried the [email protected] from the app and it still didn't work. I removed the app completely and looking for a solution to re-enable the NEW VOICEMAIL notification...
Search for "Voicemail Notifier" in the market.
Thanks again!
4g?

I highly doubt 4G will work. It might work until the old Sprint account gets deactivated. Like what happened to my EVO. 4G worked for a while, then it stopped working, had to turn it off. 3G works great though.
Boost Mobile Evo Voicemail
Just letting you guys know that after many complaints about how inconsistenly the Voicemail Notifier App was working on CDMA phones like the EVO on Boost & Sprint. The creator of the app and the newest version of the app DOES NOT support Boost and other CDMA phones. Truth is it NEVER worked the way it was supposed to but at least now they have STATED it. I'm still looking for a quality app that works! If anyone has a suggestion I'd love to hear it!

Well, is it possible that perhaps someone can construct a new app that can do this? I for one would not mind donating my part to the project. If not a Voicemail notification app, then perhaps an app that does conditional call forwarding to like lets say Google voice. I will be happy to support anyone that can do this.

[FIX] General Network Failure sending/receiving MMS

I've run into this on multiple ROMs, and every time it seems like it only affects some people. As far as I've been able to find, the common link hasn't been found. It has now, and the fix is incredibly simple.
Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All > Dialer > Clear Cache
Reboot
Do not restore SMS/MMS/APN Dialer storage data
This was posted in the VaelPak thread, but wanted to get it out there for everyone.
Edit:
I tested this on a fresh install before posting.. both breaking it and then fixing it. But when I restored my broken nand backup, the fix did not work. So mileage may vary, but flashing a fresh install and not restoring the dialer storage should still be a winner.
See post #4 for another confirmed cause and fix
THANKS! Been having this issue since and I didn't feel like searching everywhere for this...until you posted it up here, which made my day a breeze!
Thanks awesome find
There is more to this.
The original cause and solution were both confirmed, but another one has been found. It was caused by a battery mod. So conceivably MMS could be broken by any UI mod that includes /system/framework/framework-res.apk
The good news is, replacing the file with the one that came with your rom should fix MMS after a reboot.
This cause and solution have also both been confirmed. But what about the mod that did it is not known right now.
There seems to be many causes to this problem and seems a fix is based upon each individual and there phone. I see people with this error from a factory ROM and fresh phone. Some issues can also be fixed by un-checking delivery report/read report in messaging settings.
*UPDATE* ~ Possible Fix ~
Not sure if this applies to all but it fixed my problems altogether. In the apn settings there are 2 listed one for Internet and one for MMS. Take the MMSC, MMS Proxy, and the MMS Port settings from the MMS apn and copy those to the internet apn. No need to reset. And don't delete any apn's either.
I can t get this to work

Don't worry about it?
This isn't even the right thread for that.
I just returned an Evo, rooted, with a custom ROM on it. They didn't care. The chance of them seeing S-OFF instead of S-ON is pretty much zero.
is this the same problem as
when roaming i am unable to make calls nor connect to the internet. i tried calling and i get this message
"unable to connect, this is an unauthorized devise on the Verizon network...please try your call again........"
I had this issue and it was due to a messed up xml file in system/customize/MNS/default.xml
Unfortunately for me, the only way I fixed it was to hard reset with with the proper edits to the file.
I was learning how to build ROMs and edit certain xml files and I guess I screwed up the syntax of this particular one and ruined my MMS

Not the same. Call sprint and tell them you can't make calls while roaming and that you get the verizon message. Tell them you need to repush the network information. That'll fix it quick.
Voicemail problems
Don't know if you guys can help out, but I can't find a thread on this anywhere. My voicemail is not working period. I will call from another phone and leave myself a voicemail. Go to check it and it is no where to be found. I am running fresh 3.2 and kingkernel bfs #9. Any suggestions?

I use Google Voice -- It will replace your current VM system and also sends you emails with your voicemail transcribed into text... give it a shot!
I also use it to ask me to use Google Voice to dial out or allow android to dial...because I hate dialer and if you hit connect/call it immediately dials the first number on the list.. googlevoice at least lets me choose which one I want or none at all.. Its like putting a condom on voice dialer! (Ok, not really, but....)
^ that or youmail. I like youmail because if the phone doesnt ring sometimes (out of reception or if youre on a call sometimes) youmail will send you a email or text showing the missed call. I archive all missed calls/voicemails (for work) so it works out perfectly.
back on topic, I tried deleting the dialer storage, but my mms settings still show some wierd Orange.UK url for the mnsc and i have no idea how that happened. I will try to reflash the rom and see if that fixes it...
Thanks for the suggestion, just got everything setup. Google voice works like a charm.

[Resolved] Google Voice notifications in the notifications bar

I finally figured out the reason why Google Voice notifications for new messages weren't showing up for me. It turns out to be a stupid bug in GV.
Once I would be done setting up GV, I would go into "Settings" and check the option for "Voicemail display - view and play voicemails from the phone call log". Well, I accidentally found out this is the culprit. I unchecked this today just for the heck of it, and lo and behold GV notifications starting appearing again
This had been bugging me no end for the last month. Hope this helps anybody else in a similar situation.

Thanks for the tip, but FWIW, I have always that option unchecked and I still have issues with getting notifications. the weird thing for me is that the notifications immediately pop up once I open google voice. I think there is some sort of issue with the app processing correctly in the background, but I'm no dev so not sure how/if you check for coding or troubleshoot how the program is written to interact with ICS.

I have tried that, too, yes. For the first couple of weeks, my GV was working fine, notifications and all. I had zero problems after setting it up. But the last 3+ weeks, it has been giving me zero notifications in my status bar until I open the app, and my email notifications (which are how I've been seeing that I have voicemails) are delayed quite a bit.

I can confirm it works on CleanROM DE 3.0, no experience with Scott's SE version however.

I did extensive tests and determined its the "Voicemail display" checkbox that breaks the notifications. The link in your post is absolutely required to correctly set up GV forwarding on the HOX. That is my standard procedure for setting up GV now.

Twice, now, I have uninstalled and disassociated GV from my phone, then reinstalled and redone the entire setup process. I've always uncheck the view and play voicemails in the call log option, as well as used the dialer code for ensureing the voicemail is properly forwarded and GV is used. Nothig has helped my issue.

Though not very sure, I think I have read a number of people had notification issues around push emails and text messages on the stock ROM. People were either not getting these notifications or getting them quite late. Maybe this is more to do with problems in the notification subsystem of the stock ROM. Do you plan to root and unlock to install a custom ROM? Maybe that's the ticket to get this working.

I'm considering going over to CleanROM at some point. I'm stock now and just updated to 1.85 from the OTA. I waited a few on the update and read some claims that this update helped some of the general notification issues. Doesn't seem to have helped me with GV notifications but ill give it a few days (updated yesterday afternoon). I've been holding off rooting because I'm leery about it effecting my company's IT privileges and forced encryption as I rely heavily on my corporate email and am forced to endure some heavy administrative control due to sensitivity of the client work I deal with.
It does seem that rooting and running a custom rom is the way to eventually go. The devs here are so swift at identifying and fixing these little issues. I just need to take the time to parse through the thousands of posts regarding the custom roms I've looked at and see if they'll work for me.

If it helps I can confirm all notifications are now working for me on Scott's CleanROM DE 3.0. It is a great ROM, very lightweight with most of bloat removed including Sense launcher (replaced by Apex, which is fantastic). Scott is extremely active in addressing any issues and continued development of all his ROMs.
Feel free to reach out to me if you decide to move to this one and need any clarification or help. Good luck.
Yeah, I haven't had any notification problems since I switched to CleanROM.

Thanks a lot for the info and offer. I will most likely look into CleanROM DE later in the week when I have some free time. I've read about it quite a bit, but I am not well-versed in rooting phones and flashing new ROMs, so I will likely need all the help I can get. I am definitely a noob, but I read these boards extensively, so I'll do my research and possibly PM if I've got any specific questions that I can't find answers for when going into a potential root.

[Q] gs3 - can't send texts - CyanogenMOD 11 KitKat

Hey guys,
This is my first post, and I would greatly appreciate some help. I'm clearly quite a rookie at this. But I rooted my Verizon gs3 quite some time ago, and everything has run smoothly since. I did use it while in the UK on GiffGaff Mobile, and still worked fine. Now I am using Simple Mobile.
Just today, I installed the CyanogenMod 11 KitKat. I am able to send & receive MMS. And I can receive SMS, but I cannot send SMS.
I have tried changing the SMSC number using the dialer, but it keeps reverting back to "+12063130004",145 . I have also tried using different SMSC codes using the GoSMS app. I've played around with the APNs as well, but from the little that I know about this, this only has to do with MMS not SMS, correct?
Don't know what else to do, and I can't find any threads that have helped me yet.
PLEASE help, and I would greatly appreciate it.

If you toggle airplane mode or reboot the phone can you send an SMS? I haven't played with my phone at all lately but suddenly similar symptoms have manifested. I can send 1 SMS every time I reboot, but then it stops sending SMS after that one. Is this true with you? I haven't found a fix yet, but I'm trying to flush out the problem completely.

So what do you mean by go into the app? if I press menu> manage apps, and then under the tab "All" at the bottom there is a "Voice+". I'm on CM10.2 and it appears that the "Voice+" is part of CM. If I open my app drawer and scroll down there is no app called Voice+.
There is Voice Dialer and Voice Search, but nothing else in the app drawer with a similar name. If I'm not going down the correct path please let me know. Thank you.

Hmm, that's odd that its not showing up in the app drawer. It should be. Do you use Google Voice at all? On my phone, the option to disable or uninstall is blocked when I go into Settings>Apps. But if you don't use the app and your phone allows you to, maybe try disabling and/or uninstalling from there?? Let me know, and I'll keep looking.

So, I have the option to force stop it. (no change in results).
I've even downloaded the "Google Voice" app, which added the "Voice+" app, opened it, confirmed that it was on disable and still no change.
I have no idea why this problem started this morning since I don't believe I am any changes to my phone the past couple days... I really don't know what information I can provide to help troubleshoot it...
I'm having the same exact problem starting this morning. I can send exactly one message and then I have to reboot or turn airplane mode on/off to send another. Everything was working perfectly fine yesterday, though. I've tried deleting my phone's cache in the recovery menu but it hasn't helped.

Are you also on CM11? What is your carrier? I've done a factory reset and upgraded from CM10.2 to CM11 and still haven't been able to ride my self from the problem. Nothing I have tried has changed anything. I made a new thread since it seems that the original purpose of this thread has been answered via the disabling of Voice+. The new thread is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2657822

Carrier: Verizon. I was initially on CM 10.2 but both rolled back to CM 10.1 and upgraded to CM 11 to see if any of those fixed the problem. Neither did and I reluctantly (for now at least) went back to stock and unrooted my phone. Texting is working fine but I absolutely hate TouchWiz. I have no idea what could have caused the issue and, like you, I didn't make any changes at all before it happened. It literally appeared out of the blue.

A bunch of us on S4s seem to be having the same problem! The timing of this issue all happening at once is weird... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=50552025
OK this really does seem to work for me as a temp workaround...it sticks through reboots and all. Go to the dialer and enter the trusty old *#*#4636#*#* then go to phone settings and change preferred network type to CDMA only then back out and reboot.
It kinda sucks cause it's slow on the go, but at least I can send texts reliably. I have WiFi most places I am anyway.
If anyone figures out a real long term fix please post!!!

Hey guys,
This is my first post, and I would greatly appreciate some help. I'm clearly quite a rookie at this. But I rooted my Verizon gs3 quite some time ago, and everything has run smoothly since. I did use it while in the UK on GiffGaff Mobile, and still worked fine. Now I am using Simple Mobile.
Just today, I installed the CyanogenMod 11 KitKat. I am able to send & receive MMS. And I can receive SMS, but I cannot send SMS.
I have tried changing the SMSC number using the dialer, but it keeps reverting back to "+12063130004",145 . I have also tried using different SMSC codes using the GoSMS app. I've played around with the APNs as well, but from the little that I know about this, this only has to do with MMS not SMS, correct?
Don't know what else to do, and I can't find any threads that have helped me yet.
PLEASE help, and I would greatly appreciate it.

sorry for such a late response. I solved this by just disabling Google Voice+. It is just called Voice+ in the app drawer, and when you open it, just tap 'Disable' & reboot the device.

Some people don't have voice+ and the solution you used isn't an option for them.
For those of us less fortunate than you, It seems you can fix the problem by loading a TW ROM and flashing the MB1 firmware. Then you can return to CM
I had XVoice+ for Exposed on my SGS4, it stopped me from sending texts. It was ok when i uninstalled it. I hope that might help.
