Seems like some of us are stuck with these persistent voicemail notifications when we aren't on a touchwiz rom. CM7 let you hide these but CM9 does not.
Until a more official solution comes along this mod simply patches framework-res.apk to use a 1x1 transparent png in place of the standard notification.
Thanks goes to [s89281b, || Acer ||] from the cm9 thread for suggesting removing this icon or blacking it out. I tried removing but that caused the phone app to force close which led me to use a transparent image which should look fine for most situations.

I don't actually think you need to wipe anything for this to work but it never hurts to wipe cache and dalvik cache. Also make a backup before flashing this.
Thanks to tbob18 for putting together a script to auto kill your phone app at boot up. Combine his script with my mod and you have a completely automated solution for dismissing that pesky notification.

Theoretically the program Autostart (Root) would be a great way to combine these two mods into one cwm flashable zip but it seems the app app does not work on ICS... And every time I tried to do it with preconfiguring script manager, it always force closed :/
I will keep looking into combining these two mods as I would love to make it a little easier.
Also thanks to a454nova for pointing out that if you force stop the phone app it will remove the notification and the icon until you reboot. I still like having icon modded to be clear so action isn't required after a reboot until you want to remove the notification.
Oh and I am not responsible for anything... at all... ever... unless it was good, that stuff is all my fault.
Yeah I forgot to mention if somethings missing it won't work properly

Thanks. Just flashed and working. Voicemail icon is gone. You will still have notification in pulldown but that's not annoying like icon. At least for me.

Yes, the notification will remain. Like you said its the status bar icon that bugs me the most as well.
Hmm, this might make me more willing to use CM9, however I've been hearing a lot of people are having battery issues. It's great that we have a temporary fix though and I'll be sure to use this method in updated versions.
I'm wondering if it's possible to locate the "Hide VM Notifications" feature in CM7, and try to port it over ourselves? I don't really have the experience, but it would be pretty helpful and would get rid of the notification in the dropdown menu as well.
Go into Titanium Backup, backup and uninstall the phone app. (I backed up the "Voicemail" [Phone 4.0.3...] and deleted it)
this will clear the voice mail anything...
restore the app and your good!
mine is gone, my brothers came back after he restarted. He just did it again and hasn't had an issue.

Works perfectly for me. Flashed the hiding notification too, in case I have to restart & forget to force stop Phone afterwards.
I was having this issue too, so I looked and noticed I had Sprint VVM still installed and not from a backup. I opened it and it said I had a new voicemail that couldn't be downloaded. I held the back button to kill the app, ???, profit!, vm notification is now gone...

That's not the type of notification this mod addresses. On non android phones your voicemail notification comes from a specially formatted text message sent from the carrier to your phone. No its not that funky one you get when visual voicemail isn't installed either. Its a class 0 message in cshp format that triggers your message waiting indicator. Its a relic left over from voicemail systems that were used before we got android phones that were not cleared out. Touchwiz roms ignore them but aosp roms do not because some carriers use them.

You say they are from an old system. The only phone I have ever had on sprint is android. Yet I still have six phantom vm. So either its still in use or it has carried over from before I was on sprint with the number I was given.
I really don't understand why its there. But ill see if Google can help. If you have direct resource pages I would appreciate it.

did your previous android phone on sprint have visual voicemail? If not perhaps that is the reason.
The message waiting indicator stuff in android SMS message is where this is happening. CPHS is the format.

No, but if you use hancent or an alternate sms app, you can blacklist the text message. I must say eventhough they blacklist I get them from time to time.
Make sure you stop the notifications on the stock app if you decide to use another sms app.

Download the link above. You will then get your voicemails but you will also get the 9016 text messages.
Add 9016 to your contacts
Down load Redlist and any other SMS app(ie Handcent)....you will now be using a 3rd party messaging app. If you don't want to do that, you should abandon ship right here. I personally am not sure I will go this route because of this....I have reasons....
Redlist the 9016 contact(I blacklisted it too...dunno the difference)
Disable the stock messaging app notification(you have to do that anyway or you would get double notifications)
Even with this set up, you will STILL get a red dot in the notification bar indicating a redlisted contact is contacting you. So you must go into the Redlist settings and disable any notifications.
There ya have it. A major PIA(IMHO) to enjoy the perceived benefits of an AOSP ROM!(maybe this is endemic to GB AOSP ROMs only???)

I had an issue with the same thing and this seemed to fix it:
The most accurate recognition will be achieved when all the training images are taken directly from front (i.e. no profile images etc.). Also, you should take training images in different illuminations (in those environments where you usually use your mobile). Sufficient amount of images per person is about 5 to 10.
give it a shot and see if it changes!

I am running the latest MIUI and this works fine. Awesome application. My only complaint is that on MIUI you can drag applications to the top of the screen for an uninstall. If you do that with the app, it will remove it and then you can access whatever you want on the phone. Obviously nobody is going to really know that they can do that unless they are familiar with MIUI, but still something to nag about.

Same here so what I did was place it in a folder and selected the HIDE APPLICATION option that way it cannot be found
That's what I ended up doing as well. Worked really well since you can't delete the folder with something in it, but you can't find what's in it.
Also, I found that if you hit the home key while the app is loading, it cancels the protection out.
Say you have it protecting messages. You click on messages and while the screen is blank for a second or two (The camera security is loading), hit the home key. Now open messages again and it doesn't lock you out.
Just me or others too?

This is a port of this mod for the Epic 4g, and should get rid of that phantom voicemail notification permanently.
Thanks to danipoak for making this mod known to me.
It is always a good idea to create a nandroid before flashing just in case something goes wrong.
This zip simply replaces the Phone.apk with the modded version.
160 DPI Support for AOKP Milestone 5.2 with Phantom VM Fix
Phantom VM Fix for AOKP Build 31
Just flash in CWM/TWRP
A few issues with 160 dpi:
The long-hold home recents will break, so I recommend installing Search to Recents for MS5.2 I quickly threw together: Search to Recents for Milestone 5.2
(thanks to bodi524 and MrLuje)
An alternate fix is to go to Settings > Rom Control > General UI > Long press home action > Show recents and then reboot.
The recents thumbnail is cut off
The power menu breaks - you'll be presented with "Your phone will shut down" instead of options to reboot and so on.. I haven't found a solution for this yet.
For CM9 Beta 1, 2, and AOKP Build 32 there is now a setting to disable the voicemail notification in the Phone app settings as explained here.
If the toggle does not seem to be taking effect try this.

You have to disable notifications on the one you don't want to see notifications from. This is not the best explanation, but it's as if your messages get sent to one location where any message app can read them. Essentially, both apps are still looking for notifications, therefore, notifying you twice.

Wow, i see what you mean. That does suck. I was responding to this but decided to test for myself.
I've been using Go SMS since I got the phone last tuesday and I never had the issue. I installed Handcent and tested (now I have stock, go SMS and handcent). The very first message I sent to myself from my wife's phone I got double messages as you experienced. I sent myself five more and I did not received any more doubles. Not sure what it is, but this was the first and hopefully last time I'll see this.
Did you uninstall all the third party messaging apps and test to see if the issue goes away?

You can use Titanium Backup to freeze the default message apk. That seemed to fix the problem for me. Always backup the apk first!

Hey all, does anybody know the location of the apk for the Verizon Voicemail app? I was able to remove all the bloatware that I wanted, but I couldn't find where the voicemail app is. I tried searching for "voicemail" and "vvm" using root explorer, but it didn't find it.
/system/priv-app/VVM.apk

Thanks, but it isn't there. The icon still shows up in my app drawer.
Don't know what to say then. I've got it froze in titanium backup and that's the path it shows for it.
So I decided to load Viper and found the VVM.apk where you said it was and was able to remove it. Thanks, still not sure why the stock ROM wouldn't remove the icon though.
Check out my thread on getting Verizon visual voicemail to work!

I think it stays because its tied into the messages app... If you scroll right in the messages app there is a voicemail tab... Possibly whatever base viper is on doesn't have vvm tied into messages?

Right and you risk breaking bubble count notifications if you remove it too.
