Hi guys,
I'm having issues with google now. It worked perfectly before. When I ask who bill gates is, the speech outputs works normally. But when I ask to send text message the speech output is too quick. Anyone here also having the same issues?

I use YouMail, check it out,I don't appear to have any issue with it "using" my minutes... But I do have like 15,000 rollover minutes so I stopped caring a long time ago lol.

Haven't ever used AT&T's visual voicemail app. I always use Google Voice. What do you mean by Google Voice using minutes? Google Voice doesn't use any minutes when used for voicemail.
Everytime a voice mail is forwarded to google voice its causes 1 minute of anytime minutes to be burned 4 most people would not be a problem on 100 phone calls a month my wife however recieves between a hundred and two hundred phone calls a day with for job

The best part was when we were trying to figure out the magic number it was not my wife's google voice number but more of a generic google voice number as soon as we remove google voice her anytime minutes stop flying off the shelf I have the sky rockets in the visual voicemail works fine I have tried to install it on her infuse but it says it is incompatible best I can figure is that maybe it will work with a gingerbread rom my wife is against root she will be on board if I know I can get her visual voicemail without running out of minutes

I am not sure how true this is. I got a couple of vmails in the last few days on gvoice, and I don't have any minutes showing up as used.
GOOGLE VOICE... And done.
They even send you emails. Awesome, because sometimes I forget to install the app. And can get voicemails on tablet too. It's sweet.

Did you read my POST? I had google voice. I agree works great. Love it.
Problem is that everytime it forwards to google voice. It trips one minute
of my anytime (land line) minutes.
My wife gets 100's of calls a day. I can't use a call forwarding visual voice mail.
That is why I asked if anyone had successfuly used att voice mail app on a gingerbread rom. I am hoping that is the reason I can't install on her stock phone.
I have the app from my sky rocket running 2.3.5(6) and ICS 4.03 Leak

First of all, stay cool. People are only trying to help. Sometimes they might miss to read the sentence well.
You can't set up AT&T visual voice mail on your phone. I got the note that has vvm enabled on it. I put the SIM in with the AT&T cust care followed by a person from tech dept for over 45 mins with no use. It refused to work. And yes, it needs to be enabled on the network by AT&T rep, not just on phone.
For Note and Skyrocket, they enable it when you upgrade or change the phone to that. And though it was enabled on Note, it just refused to get set up on my Infuse..
Second, my wife and I use GV a lot. And unless its calls, vmails never used any of our anytime minutes.
Thanks. And I apollagize. Check your bill. The call forward uses anytime minutes. One per missed call. Not noticeable for most. And we even missed it 1st month. But then her work got crazy and so did her phone and surprise 600 anytime minutes in 5 days.
Again thanks for detailed response.

Kawy is correct, I have YouMail and checked my bill last night... Sure enough there are logs for call forwards at a rate of one minute. Not a big deal for me, I have thousands of roll over minutes (15K+) and a 2100 minute a month plan. I own a business and receive several dozen calls a day, I don't miss many though, but I can see how if you miss a few hundred a month how that can be a rip off.
I saw a file on the htc vivid forum that enables att visual voice mail on all GB and ics roms... Maybe you want to check that out.

I am trying to find out if the new OS on this has better voice dial support than the older versions of Android.
Currently I am using a WP7 phone and I am stuck with this phone because of the way the voice dial feature works with a Bluetooth headset.
With WP7 I can do everything from the headset and it reads back the number or contact name before it dials. It can also reply to txt via voice all without me touching the phone.
Is that a possible with this phone/OS?
How about with the ICS update for this phone?
Thanks for any input on this.
I can tell you that you will probably not be happy with android voice commands coming from wp7. It's gotten a little better with ics but still nowhere near as polished and user friendly as wp7. That's the one thing I miss from my Focus. I could be driving down the freeway and carry on a complete conversation via text message without ever reading anything or fiddling with my phone. The new s-voice leak from Samsung is nice, but still no comparison. If this is a deal breaker for you I'd stick with wp7 for now.

Thanks for the reply, it is really disappointing that Android still has not gotten it's BT headset voice dial support up to the level of being truely useful. I hope it is not a matter of patents on technology that is preventing it from doing so and one day (soon I hope) it will.
Thanks again.
Hi. Just wondering if anyone has had any MMS Issues since buying this phone. I've had several people ask me if I ever got the pictures they sent, and I just never got them. This happened on both stock and custom roms. Weird thing is, this morning I had my wife send me a test MMS and it worked. But later in the day, I didn't receive one again.
Thoughts?

I'll be tentatively getting my N5 on Monday (knock on wood), so if everything goes according to plan I'll test MMS right away and let you know.
I get them but I'm not always notified that a new message exists. Seems to be group MMS messages I'm not receiving notifications for. This is probably more of a Hangouts issue than a Sprint issue tho.
The problem is more unicorns exist in the world than sprint cell towers

I'm on sprint and up until like 3 hours ago, my MMS was working great... But now for some reason, I can't send any but can still receive them no problem. It's pretty irritating. I haven't changed anything yet they just stopped working. Using textra (and have been since I got the phone two weeks ago)

Turn data on to receive mms. And I hope this thread will stop you from asking 100+ times in less than 24hrs in the same rom thread about same issue. Thanks.

Thanks. I'm guessing that it must be a Sprint related issue then. I just tested one and it went through find again. How odd.

I've had really bad issues for the past two days... it hasn't been great to begin with. I'm convinced it's network issues, but it happens at work and at home.
Cleveland, OH FWIW...
If you're using Hangout, try 8SMS. It's a free app, a KitKat modified version of the CM messaging app. One cool feature (which Sprint supports) is that'll send MMS via Wi-Fi. They also have a thread in Android Apps here in XDA.

I'd consider it, but my MMS are back to working. That wi-fi MMS thing sounds awesome though... it's just- I've been waiting for SMS/MMS in hangouts for so long, I don't want to cheat on it!
Wonder if anyone else had this issue. When using VOIP app Fongo on my Nexsu 5, receiving side always had echo which is annoying. Voice quality also not very good, some times cut in and out. On same network connection, iPhone 4S has much better voice quality and no echo on receiving side,
Any suggestion what may improve VOIP call quality? I noticed that there are some complaints of this issue for Nexus 4, and there is user that report better VOIP quality with custom ROM such as Paranoid Android RC2.
Thanks.

I'm not sure if Fongo is proprietary, but both CsipSimple and the native sip dialer work great on the N5.
Can I just say that I love a couple of the Samsung Apps? Sure S Finder is pointless (to me) and S Voice needs to get WAY better for me to use it, the voice is far too robotic (unless people know something I'm doing wrong? High quality voices?) and it lacks some grammar understanding. But S Health, S Note and a couple others are actually damn good. To date I haven't found an app that is as accurate as S Health is for mo I to ring my activity. It does struggle when GPS is weak to maintain an accurate speed (I walk faster than 2 S Health, we both know this, haha), but my word is it good..just could it stop using the really awful robotic Samsung voice? S Note is another good one, it does things incredibly well, scrapbook isn't bad, I use it from time to time, and the camera app is closing in on the LG idea. Though LG still has far better manual control, and it STAYS IN MANUAL MODE IF YOU PUT IT THERE...SAMSUNG..I WANT RAW, NOT JPG. I digress, I still love some of their apps. They really have come a long way!
There are higher quality voices, but I still prefer to use Google Now, but definitely agree with S Health and S Note. Can't find anything like em on the store

I've migrated to S Voice because Google Now is no longer working correctly for me. Anytime I tell it to call or text someone, it pulls up a freaking search page.

Yeah..I'm going to give S-Voice a try, Google Now has decided it wants to never let me use "ok google". I can set it up a million times and it just never works. Sad, I'll miss that. It was working two days ago too, it's confusing. Also! So Voice can READ MY MESSAGES TO ME, haha.
