i did... it didnt tell me i had voicemail for 2 days. PLUS scared the LIVING HELL OUT OF MY MOM!!!! i died laughing.. my mom told me that my voicemail said "Hello Thresea, Kyle cant come to the phone right now but leave a message" or something on the lines of it.
You mean she didn't say "who's that nice girl answering your phone ? " lol

lol nope, she just freaked out cause it said her name which i still find funny. shes afraid to call me in fear i wont pick up.

That's probally the main reason why I use YouMail... And for me at least I rarely ever have any problems getting notifications... But another reason why I use it is that Google voice tells me that my device can't be configured. YouMail does it with one button push... So idk, lol... Plus i like the nifty caller ID thing and stuff
Sent from my PG06100 using xda premium
i have to agree it is nifty. BUT one issue i have and idk if its youmail or if its CM7 or if its the Cyclonic rom im using. but it becoming annoying is when i receive a call no matter what if they are in my contacts or not. it says would like to accept this call press 1 now.
Hmm... That's interesting... I'm gonna play around and see if i can duplicate that.. Ill edit in a bit
One quick question. Do you get the rotary answer call thing or does it just say press one to answer?
I'm still a noob at a lot of this, I'm just trying to help, if someone more knowledgeable knows, lol, they're probally better off helping... Ill still look around though, I'm trying to learn everything
Edit: well it isn't CM7 I can't even find a setting to make that happen.. And YouMail can't take calls... I'm gonna check out Cyclonic but idk, if it really is that annoying you could also do a fresh install of the rom, wipe everything, would only take maybe 10 minutes

It has to do with the provisioning or some such wording. Try to dial one these numbers, I can't remember which is the newest that will fix your issues: *282678861049 or *282679540127 listen for the stutter and then try a test call. Sorry I can't remember I'm old! LOL

the first number was for verizion and the 2nd was youmail activation.
yeah that second number is for sprint it tells sprint to forward your voicemail to youmail that why you get the dial 1 msg. Man been a while since i had these probs,but if you go to the youmailsupport and search there are issue fixes . Sorry to be longwinded and disregard if you don't wanna use it.
Ahh, i think i understand, i misunderstood... OK, dial 1 for voicemail... From the YouMail app hit menu-help-forward to YouMail... Maybe that will work?

Well kinda like this ,once you get the youmail account set up on-line you dial *whichever number worked for sprint (lol) from your phone. Then on your phone menu>settings>Call>My Carrier tap then voicemail settings anduse the number that youmail gave think it's 714-xxx-xxxx .
Here's an explanation of the enter your 10 digit number: http://support.youmail.com/entries/388183-why-can-t-i-forward-my-calls-to-youmail

Are you sure you're not already using Google Voice? Because the call announcement is a feature of Voice. Try going to google.com/voice under Settings -> Calls and see if you've got Call Screening enabled.

Hope this is just a glitch......I can't have this not telling me when I have a message. Luckily, I heard the phone ring and let it go to vm(working). I waited a couple mins and checked and the message was there. Until now, it has been great, I love the transcription, that is the bomb!!! Perfect feature while working....can let it go to vm and then read the message.......
This happened once before and I spent over an hour trying to fix it and gave up and it just started working later that night.
that's pretty disappointing that it's not more predictably dependable.

Lol gvoice probably works better.
Anyway, i use youmail only because sprint vm app wasnt working on some roms n i cant figure out how to unforward.
If u would pay for gv then youre ok, those who wouldnt shouldnt complain, carry on.
I wonder if this has something to do with me removing Sprint_Core.apk?
1) GV is working just fine for me. Placed a call out using it and left a message on both my number and my wife's. Got the message and the notification. It even transcribed it correctly!
2) I pay good money for high speed internet, cellular phone service and satellite television. All three have failed me on more than one occasion.
3) I pay absolutely nothing for Google Voice and it has yet to fail me.

Haha I wish I was having your luck with gvoice, it's been 24 hours and still not working at all.
So it's not Sprint_Core, I put it back on and my sprint vvm works fine but after removing everything, dialing *38 and starting from scratch to set gvoice back up from scratch, same deal. Gvoice just doesn't want to be my VVM provider
Oh well.
friend switched from iphone to inspire; her text messages show in the thread out of order.
any thoughts?
stock sms.

Did she go to an AT&T store to do the switch, or did she switch her self? Sounds like there may be an issue with her account. I would have her call AT&T either way.

Just asked my 14 yr old daughter and she said hers never show up out of order. I don't text too much so I had to defer to her.
If the timestamps are correct and they are out of order that is strange. You could try gosms or handcent as I believe they simply order them as they occur.
apr. that....kids ought have an idea better then us id guess.
seems like they text a lot. my last phone i had text blocked....lol...

I have the same problem with my inspire 4g. like when I check my account balance from my bank. The text I get back from my bank is before the one I sent to my bank. It only happens when the texts are in the same minute. It also happens while testing my wife a lot.

Get the app in the market called SMS Time Fix, install it, run it and put a check in the box for Active and under it set the Adjustment Method to USE PHONE TIME. Works great for me! There is the occasional message that comes in out of order but for 99%, the time is correct. When you restart the phone, just go in and make sure the check in the box is for active and make sure your app killer or task manager doesn't shut it off.
I've got my Google Voice linked to my phone using my Sprint number and everytime I recieve a call I first have to press 1 to accept it...
Is there a way around this or is this required when using GV on our phones? I dont like that extra step. I'll deal if I dont have a choice but I would prefer for it not to be that way.
Go into your Google Voice account online and turn off call screening.
I had the same issue just log into GV and click on the gear and then its under calls or phone

Much appreciated. Thanks guys!
This is a new one for me. It HAS to be some sort of malware. My phone keeps calling people on its own, and when its calling them it shows on my phone that they are calling me! It's not in my pocket when it happens most of the time, so I've ruled out pocket dialing. Has anyone seen this issue or ran into anything similar?
I can't help you, but it would help if you posted what changes you've made to your phone.
ie: rom, theme, addons, dialer

I'm running a fresh install of infused 1.6. Its been quite some time since I have installed anything. I installed Lookout to see if would find anything. It didn't. My phone has done this 3 times to 3 different people in a 5 hour span. All with the same situation. It says I am getting a call from them, their phone says they are getting a call from me.
No one else has seen this issue?
If it's still happening try reflashing.

My wife started getting these weird text messages from an over seas number. No idea what it is but she replied one time to get rid of it. We ended up getting charged more than than normal and was told the only way to stop was to change phone nimbers. She now started to get them now. Whats weird is now out of the blue I stared to get them on my phone. Any ideas?
That's annoying. I get blank texts messages from this one number, and it started about 1.5-2 years ago. It happens randomly, and I even called the number back at one point explaining to the middle-aged lady that she was sending me blank texts. She was surprised and said she had no idea that it was happening. I have screenshots to prove it, *****.
Luckily, I don't get charged for her blank texts.
Maybe an app u have is pushing them try downliading air push finder and see what comes up

Last time we were there they were not very help full and said I had to change my number which I did. Now my wife is getting these and she cant change her number as she uses it for work. Guess I will call verizon again and complain or talk to a person with more knowledge. Hmm since Im not stock will they ask for information from the phone? Dont want to change back and re load if I dont have too.
Just called and they said they cant block and dont see anything but as long as we dont reply we wont get charged. Its just annoying. Weird though how she showed them to me yesterday and overnight I started getting them.
I am now finding some information on a verizon website and will try and see if it works.
Well neither of those options worked. Guess Im just stuck getting them and deleting them.
Why not just download a root text/call blocker? i have the same problem and this works just fine. I'd get some stupid message from a weird number saying "Want quick cash now! Reply "CASH" for quick cash now! If you would like to stop these text messages, respond "STOP"!"
Just dont type anything to these numbers and get an SMS blocker

Did you mention the Ozmail thing to Verizon? You're probably getting a message notification if I'm not mistaken. Verizon should be able to turn this off, just make sure you mention the Ozmail thing.
More info here: https://community.verizonwireless.com/thread/668513/
Ozmail is the stock email app. Text 'stop' and it will stop. Every time an email comes in it is trying to go through the now nonexistent email app since you have an aosp email ask with your Rom flash.

You can block numbers on Verizon's website but the block only lasts for 3 months which is pretty useless for this kind of thing.
I use Mr. Number from the market. So far so good. Blocks calls and texts. On the calls I have it set to pick up and hang up so they never get to my Voicemail. I think you can set a custom reply for texts as well.
The blocked numbers and texts never show up on my call log or text folder

Those work but in my case the number was too long and not really a
phone number. When I replied to the text it stopped.
I have the similar situation,but I am getting a wired phone call is from unknown caller ID. When I pick up ,there is always someone mumbling,, when you stop saying he stops. But the carrier can do nothing with it, unless i have to change the number.
