[Q] Sweepstake voicemail - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

so recently I havent been able to use my voicemail because when i call it, it says i can enter this sweepstakes thing. So i got youmail a voicemail app that was giving me a voicemail that worked fine. Recently my phone doesn't redirect to youmail, when ANYONE calls they now get the sweepstakes junk. I've tried looking this problem up but can't find anything.
Edit: my rom is cyanogenmod 10.1 newest nightly. (the forwarding voicemail to youmail was working fine the other day while I was on the newest nightly.)

Voicemail problems

Is anyone else having problems with voicemail setup on they captivates? Every time I try to check my voicemail I get a message about where the mailbox number, I enter my phone number and or says thee is no mailbox with that number. Also when my wife tries to call it just says that I'm not available and when I reject the call it does busy. Does any else have this issue?

Go take it to the AT&T store or call them, they forgot to move your voicemail over to the new device. Same thing happened to me.
1) thats not the first time ATT's goofed a VM access #.
2) Consider having your VM swapped to Google Voice, and using it only for VM, you'll still get most of the features plus text conversion and recording via the Voice app and website.
Use Google Voice instead. It is so much better anyway.

You do not have the proper phone number for your voicemail. This happens to me when I transfer phones around since I always forget to put the proper number on my sim card

If you came from a device with visual voicemail, you'll have to call customer care to get it switched back to basic voicemail.
Well, that, or use Google Voice.

[Q] A new problem someone offer some help please

I finally found the rom I like, Avatar, flashed that and everything works except for the AT&T voicemail app. It keeps telling me there is no voicemail number on the sim card. I used another app and copied the voicemail number to the card but it still can't find the number. I can call my voicemail on the phone and get to the voicemail but the voice mail won't set up. At first the dialer told me to use the settings in menu to set the voicemail up, but I can't find the menu to do that. Anyone got any help please. Need voicemail.
I had the same problem with cm10.1. Tried everything I could think of even, called att = no help there. So I just went back to Google voice. I like it better anyway cause I can check voicemail on my PC browser. :/

Ok, I will give that a try, I called AT&T and they gave me the voice mail number. I put it in contacts and called that works, but the app I am using won't find the number and set up. For some reason with this Avatar Rom there is no voicemail number associated with it. Other roms I have had no problem with this app setting up voicemail. One other Rom I played with had the same problem but there was a menu on the dialer with settings to insert a number for voicemail, but this is missing on this one.
Is this the visual voicemail app? If so, you might try removing and reinstalling. Make sure wifi is off when you try to set it up. Mine won't setup after a rom flash unless I turn off wifi and let it connect to data.

I switched to CM 10.1 I think it was and it set up pretty good. Thats basically the same rom for looks that I can see. I have no idea why my voicemail number isn't on the sim card and I can't get it over there .
Still not working here on cm10.1. The wheel keeps spinning after I enter the password.

Doesn't work with 4.2 yet.
Just checked the play store and AT&T updated the Visual Voicemail app, works with 4.2.2 now. Installed and working here!!
Use Google voice. It's awesome anyways

Boo yah! Not only that but it works on WiFi. And if you are like me, you turn your mobile data off. Please you get it transcribed and emailed. AT&T charges and extra four bucks

Sprint voicemail issues

Hi all,
Have any fellow Sprint users figured out how to get voicemail to work properly on this phone? I can dial 1 to check it if course, but I don't get any kind of notification when someone leaves a voicemail for me. I'm also getting those annoying 9016 and 8737 texts all the time. I tried pulling the Sprint Voicemail APK from my GS4 and pushing it to the system/app folder on my N5, but it still doesn't give me any notifications.
Anyway, does someone have a fix for this? I'd prefer not to call Sprint if I don't have to. Thanks!
Im on Sprint, and I don't have this issue. What ROM are you running? I used to get those annoying 9016 texts, two phones ago, when I ran aosp Roms on my old evo

Unfortunately, i haven't seen any progress on the sprint voice mail app. You can either integrate your sprint number with Google voice to handle all voice mails or
If you want to keep separate numbers, forward missed and busy calls to your Google voice number (*28 Google number) and set Google voice to "do not disturb" so it goes straight to voice mail.

I'm just running the stock rom. Do you get notifications when you have a voicemail? The texts are annoying, but my main concern is being notified when I have a message.
So far I have.

There are a few few threads about this. None have any resolution aside from use GV.
I cannot use GV and I do (did) get the 9016 without any other notifications. I now use PF Voicemail+. It's pretty close the Sprint VVM app we're used to. It took a little bit to set up but it seems to work. I now get push notifications and email when I get voicemail.
Still wish Sprint would allow the N5 on the VVM service.
I have the N5 on Sprint and after posting on their forms I can tell you that I don't think Sprint is going to give us a Stand Alone VMM app. I have installed Google Voice on 2 different N5's with Sprint and set it up to handle just the Voicemail and it works perfect on both phones. I have seen other threads with people getting the 9016 text. Before I set up Google Voice, whenever someone left me a Voicemail I got the notification to call, but never the 9016 so I don't have any advice for you there.

Can't get Google Voice working on my Nexus 5 with T-Mobile

I used to have a Nexus 5 on Sprint but recently got a new one on T-Mobile and I can't get Google Voice voicemail to work. I've cleared data on the app and reinstalled numerous times and even pulled my old phone number off of Google Voice online.
And yes I've checked the dialer settings and it's set to Google Voice for voicemail.
I never had a problem getting it to work with Sprint...
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Why isn't it working? Works fine for me.
Are you stock? Rooted? Custom ROM? Does it give you an error message or are the voicemails just not going to Google voice? Are you sure they aren't going to voice and you just have notifications completely off?
Same here, working perfectly on CM11. T-Mobile N5

I just fixed it. I went to Dialer | Settings | Call Settings | Call forwarding.
Woohoo!

Does you plan include call forwarding? It's required to have google replace your voicemail. I'm on metro pcs (Who runs on t-mobile) and I had the same problem till I realized my plan didn't include call forwarding and added it on

Sprint voicemail app

Is there any way to get the sprint voicemail app working on this phone, seeing as how its not a sprint phone?
I remember a couple years back when a few of us would install a new ROM, sometimes the ROM didn't have the voicemail app and when we would install the apk, we would get all kinds of weird coded sms messages instead of ( or with) a voicemail.
If it can be made to work, does anyone have the apk?
Also im using Google voice right now, but i hate it
