Visual Voicemail - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does Visual voicemail works for tmobile with mango on the hd7?

Yes. Be sure to add the VVM feature to your account (you can do this on t-mobile.com).

Does it work with ATT? cause I dont see it and I would assume I would still have it since I had it on my iphone and I still have my unlimited data...

ATT note user thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1509805
I tired it in my note ( imilka - ICS rom ) . It installs fine and when i enter the password it stays connecting.
U need to have visual voicemail activated in your account.
Can someone try in other roms and see if this works.
Below is from his thread
Okay, took some time, but here it is, AT&T Visual Voicemail for AT&T customers using ANY & ALL Roms, custom or other than CWS__001 stock.
Please feel free to use it or link to it here, just make sure you give me a little love (mention) & hit the thanks button.
This is intended for chefs to provide cooked in or as an addition for their AT&T users. It should also work on Captivate, Captivate Glide, Inspire, SGS & SGS2 roms.
READ ME: For Visual Voicemail to work, you need to either have one of the Android 2.3.x officially provisioned for the service or you must have paid for the service.
On some devices, you may need to set up the AT&T PTA APN for this to work.
I do not publish hacks or cracks that violate terms of service or help you avoid paying for services. If you have an LTE Android Device Visual Voicemail sock was added to your account at provisioning & will then work on any of your devices with this file.
Doesn't work.
Install
Hope I don't get flamed, but I can't seem to find any detailed instructions on how to install this file. I downloaded the file and unzipped it on my Macbook Pro, dropped the folder WM_GSLEON3 on my external_sd card. On my Galaxy Note I downloaded ES File Explorer, and if I've done anything right up to this point, I have no idea which files or where I need to put them. What else can you expect from a newbe
Install the apk inside the zip
@Taptalk-GalaxyNote
Hi all, forum newbie here. Just want to be sure I'm clear on using the Visual Voicemail app. I downloaded it to my stock AT&T LTE Note, unzipped & installed fine.
When I launch the app, it asks me to call my VM. I do, then tap [asterisk] twice to hang up the call. I can't post screenshots here yet, but that generates VVM setup screen #1, which reads:
"Account Setup. Welcome to AT&T Visual Voicemail. To complete your Visual Voicemail setup, please call Voicemail."
I tap the Call Voicemail button. That doesn't call my voicemail (in the usual sense), but generates VVM setup screen #2, which reads:
"Account Setup, Please wait. Setting up your account."
That churns for a minute or so, then I get setup screen #3:
"An account verifications has not been received yet.
"Verify your network connectivity.
"Call your Voicemail again, and make sure that you enter the voicemail successfully.
"Contact support to verify that your Visual Voicemail service is activated."
So, if I understand the threads about this service:
- The Visual Voicemail app is ATT's UI for a service which they have to initiate on a user's account. Correct? I.e., it's a toggle/whatever at their end?
- VVM is available to stock ATT LTE Note users? Or must I root to have access to the service?
When I called 611 about this process, the ATT rep said VVM is available only through their AT&T Messages app. (I didn't tell him about threads on this forum which warn users away from that app; I haven't installed it.) "You do all the setup at your end," he said.
So, for those of you who have set up the Visual Voicemail app:
Did you have to go through an ATT rep to initialize the service at their end?
Any advice on what to tell future reps to make it clear what I need to start up VVM using the Visual Voicemail app?
(Dealing with these people has so far not given me great confidence in their autonomy or critical-thinking skills.)
TIA for any wisdom. I'm an Android newbie, but totally digging the Note, & 2.3.6.
As far as I know, nobody has this working on a N7000 Note.
That would explain my failure. Thanks.

Your line must have VVm activated
Currently VVM works only with lines that have iphone or an LTE enabled device.
My phone line is iphone but i use that on my note.
If u have an iphone then call them up and ask them to activate the VVM.
Thanks, drgopoos. I'll call ATT & try with a different rep. (The first told me I could only use ATT's Messages app, which everyone here seems to abhor.)
So I need a LTE plan or just give them an ATT Note IMEI then add feature? Are they going to force me into LTE data plan?

If u have an att note on LTE plan , just ask them to activate the VVM and u will get it.
U dont need to have an LTE plan.

I have a N7000 but my account IMEI is a Motorola Atrix 4G. I'm asking if I switch my IMEI to an ATT Note then call and request VVM feature will they require the LTE data plan?

Not sure where I'm going wrong then.
I just bought a ATT Note and activated it.
I then sold that phone on Ebay and used that SIM in my N7000.
I installed VVM and set my PIN thru the normal Voicemail.
Then I tried to login with VVM and the PIN won't work??
It just sits there and doesn't finish login.
Any ideas?
Happened with me when i was on asop rom.
Did u try darky ?
Using right apn?
OK, well, I got VVM to work because I got an ATT phone rep with a brain. He knew nothing of the new app, but dug into hnis database & figured out how to turn on ("provision") VVM on my account—apparently a feat of some ledgerdemain.
After hi flipped his toggle in side the Death Star, the VVM app responded: created a scrollable list of all my existing VMs (the rep warned me they'd be destroyed by the process, but they weren't). The app preserved my outgoing message & I tested the app by having my wife call me.
So the hitch in this process—as is ever the case with huge corporations who don't care if you ever use their products, only if you pay for them—was the human factor.
Moral: get the right rep on the phone & you can configure your phone for ease of use … if you're lucky.
Thanks to those who helped me on this thread.
I am using an iPhone Data Plan, maybe I ll give it a try

Cool story but tell us what plan you are on? IPhone? Lte? Regular? All you did was add VVM without changing your plan at all?

Did he inquire about which phone you had? Or how you were using VVM on your phone?
---------- Post added at 12:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:25 AM ----------
I got this working today.
But another problem cropped up.
I keep getting "Green Plus sign" notifications on the status bar when using the pta apn. It is some type of advertisement that wants me to click on it and open a website. If I switch to wap.cingular apn, it does not het the notification bar, but I don't think VMM works either.
Any ideas about that Green Plus sign and how to stop that?

Forwarding SMS with TP2 on Verizon. Can it be done?

Could I activate a TP2 on verizon and run a program like smsorganizer 2.71 to forward sms to another number?
Also, TP2 can be activated without a data plan yeah?
Talk to your provider about activating a phone without a data plan.
I have no clue about forwarding SMS in WinMo, sorry.

[Q] Visual voicemail issues?

So I have tried with google voice and also t mobile visual voicemail. Neither work correctly. Tmobile doesn't even set up and while google voice sets up when a voicemail arrives I receive both the google voice and the regular phone voicemail. Any suggestions ?

If you're using one of the T-Mobile prepaid plans, I've seen in other forums where having T-Mobile turn off your T-Mobile voicemail fixes things. Check this out: http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/voice/gbReID1_dIo and see if that's what you're experiencing, maybe their fix will work. Just an idea.
I'm not on prepaid so I decide to delete the app and reinstall seems to have gone well now I have to leave a vM to see if the issues persist
I don't know about the Google Voice, but someone else on here posted a solution for getting TMo Visual Voicemail to work.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47245664&postcount=12
I initially couldn't get mine to run, but after I followed the instructions by B0xer, I was able to get Visual Voicemail started. In the end, he writes that you should install visual voicemail again, but I didn't need to. I just sent the sms, and then started the Visual Voicemail app, and all was fixed.

Visual Voicemail built-in

Just switched over from ATT to Tmobile, i can't seem to get the visual voicemail built-in the phone working like it was on ATT. I know Tmobile has a visual voicemail app but I don't want another app when the built in function works at least on ATT. Has anyone been able to use the built-in samsung dialer visual voicemail working with Tmobile?
Thanks

Question Lost Visual Voicemail App

My S22 Ultra (SM-S908U1) lost the Samsung visual voicemail app after updating to OneUi 5. I've verified that Visual Voicemail Basic is active in my Verizon account.
Has anyone else experienced this or know how to correct it?
No, but my phone was blocking saved contacts and all voice-mail! It was blocking calls from my parents and my doctor!
VZ had to reset me on the network
