How do I get rid of voicemail icon? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a rooted nexus 5 on stock rom and I am using youmail for voicemail. For some reason I have the icon in the status bar that says I have a voicemail. (not a youmail icon but the regular voicemail icon)
How do I get this to go away?

Are you on Sprint? I could only get rid of mine by using Google Voice to put the VM in my missed call log.

I am on sprint but I use YouMail which is a similar voicemail service to Google voice. YouMail works fine. Calls are being forwarded to it and I am receiving voice mails from it. Still there is a voicemail icon that won't go away

Do you have voicemail feature/service with Sprint? If so call in and delete any voicemails in your inbox. If not then call Sprint and have them enable their voicemail service for your line and have someone call you and leave a voicemail. Then call in and delete it.

I called into sprints voice mail and there are no messages. Still the icon in my status bar will not go away.

Still no resolution. Has anyone had any other ideas or know what causes this icon to stay on here?

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.

No mms with gv
is there a way to un-link your phone and your gv account?
You can go into Google voice's web interface and under settings mark your phone as receiving texts. Then you'll have mms back. Trade off is you get two notifications per SMS(one from Google Voice and one from whatever you used for texts before).

Yeah, i had to talk to a Sprint Customer Service person to do it.
Took about 20 min to get it sorted.

[Q] Google Voice

I am on T-Mobile. I use Google Voice for voicemail. If someone calls me while I have Gmail open, it rings in GMail and I can answer it and talk to the caller and everything. Is this normal?
Its a feature. You can disable it in the Google voice settings on the web

Interesting I never noticed before. I thought it only did that if you were on Sprint and did the "integration" thing. Thanks.

Voicemail problems.

So whenever I get a missed call the person on the otherline gets a Google voice mail messenger, does anyone know why and how I can get it to my normal voicemail.

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
