When I received my op7pro I used one switch to migrate my old data from my Samsung device to my new device. It also surprisingly brought over my blocked call and messages lists.
However, I recently reset my op7pro and when using the same method to restore my data from my Samsung to op7pro the blocked call list didn't come over. To be honest I wasn't expecting it to have originally moved the block call list over. The only way I knew that it had occurred was when I received calls on my op7pro it notified me of calls that were blocked, and the list of hundreds of blocked blocked numbers was present on the op7pro.
Anyone help please? Thanks.

I'm a genius when I try. Believe it or not that call block list is included and migrated over using Google backup and restore. I just reset my device and restored only using Google and the hundreds of Samsung blocked numbers list restored to the op7pro.

I have read the many past messages on this, but none completely work. FYI, I have my Sprint account integrated with GV.
If I receive a message and delete it (Actually, archive it as Sprint VM calls it.), the notification doesn't go away until I clear Phone data. When I receive another voicemail, the notification comes back along with I assume is GV's. GV's is easy to clear. Sprint's isn't and it keeps coming back.
How can I stop Sprint from sending VM notifications? Setting in dialer or GV or GV app?
Right there with ya. Only my Dialer VM Setting doesn't have GV in it...it did...but vanished! No idea how to get it back without a factory image flash.

are you on a custom rom? I haven't experienced that since carbon with GV integration with that dialer, but there was a known bug that was around since july and they never got arount to fixing it
I'm using stock rooted Nexus 5.
Same. Stock + root + cwm

Try this from my thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2562262
I had the same problem but I'm on AT&T. I resolved this issue by going on the Google voice website and deleting my AT&T mobile number from the service (you'll find this in the settings). I then re-added the my AT&T mobile number to the service and verified the account on my phone (per the website's instructions). I have not had an issue on my N5 since doing this. I tend to switch between several phones and I'll occasionally get this issue with new devices.
I know I'm a little late, but I've had this problem for month and just found a solution.
There's an exposed module called NotifyClean. You can use that to disable specific notifications on startup. I tried it and it works for me.
Cheers.
Hi all
Since the update, I have had some problems with making calls with my Google voice number on my idol 3. Everything worked perfect up until the last week.
I have it set to have all calls using GV and also tried to set it to ask for each call. I've tried uninstalling, clear cache, etc but no change. Either way, the calls go through but the person I'm calling sees my carrier number (which no one knows), meaning that the calls are going through the carrier line instead of GV.
Anyone else experiencing this? Any suggestions for getting GV working properly again? I've not had a problem like this with GV on any phones/versions before
Thanks!

Seems third party dialers aren't working as expected either. Thought I would try another dialer to see if that would work around this but that is just opening the stock dialer...
Anyone know if a reset of the phone will roll back the update?

I'm having the same problem. I can even set google voice to ask each time and I get prompted to use voice or the phone but it doesn't matter what I select. All calls go through the phone instead of voice.
Similar issue, though I can get my GV number to work if I dial with Hangouts Dialer.
Yeah, mine works if I use Hangouts dialer also.... But that uses data, not minutes. I happen to be on an unlimited data plan, so should be OK for me for now.
Any ideas on how to submit a bug to Alcatel?

This is the subject of a thread over on the Google+ Idol 3 group. An Alcatel rep says the company is looking into the situation. I agree it needs resolving.

Depending on your rom version the system image thread has several "early" firmware versions now (especially for the 6045i) where you can see if it reverts the issue.

Same problem here. Glad I have another phone that works because my GV number is my work number. I had a few people answer and say they didn't know I had this number because it wasn't showing my GV number.

Why not use "hangouts dialer" as last I heard it still worked?

While that does work (and is good enough for me personally), the problem with that is that it uses data instead of cellular minutes. So anyone who makes enough outgoing calls and doesn't have a lot of data in their cell plan may end up going over their limit.

Did you install the stagefright patch released this week? That fixed Google Voice.
I did which did not fix my Google voice. After I installed truedialer because I was looking for a dialer that the smart feature also search's recent calls but it messed up incoming calls, so I uninstalled, then gv started working

Try rocketdialer with truecaller (caller id only).
The phone app that came on my Phab2 Pro is not Google's and it doesn't seem to have any way to block spam callers. Anybody else have this problem & how can I fix it?
BTW, I tried installing the real phone app (http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...gle-phone-7-0-140755802-android-apk-download/) but it fails with the message "Parse error".
I installed the Asus contacts and Dialer from the play store. It does just fine for now.
I use Truecaller app. I googled 'best Call Blocker for android" and Truecaller came up on top of several review list.

Using Asus contacts & dialer and, when calls come in, phone rings but no answer screen shows up. I can't answer the call. Ideas?

I'm still using it and I have not had any issues. Has it worked at all for you? If so I'd probably Uninstall apps that you've installed since. If not then maybe start with a fresh install and put that on first. Since you have the same phone it has to be an app conflict.
I use Google Voice, I will never give out the phone number that my carrier assigned me. I only give out my Google Voice phone number, you can block callers or mark as spam. I did like one feature that comes with P2P phone app, the ability to record an active call and it will record both sides of the conversation.

Me too, no problems blocking with Google Voice. Problems with the cell line. Trash marketers programatically continuously dial all possible phone numbers, noting which are activated, without regard to whether or a not lines are cellular. Numbers that are answered progress to stage two, spam calls.

Tried backing out apps but no joy. Wiped phone and now all works. Think the problem was related to removing the SD card last week to make room for 2nd SIM.

Ahh, might have a solution for you. Back in the days before cell phones were popular, landlines ruled the earth with cassette tape answering machines. I would get the same trash and telephone marketers with their systems listening for the caller to say hello and connect you to their marketers, if no one picked up then their system would call until someone picked up. BUT! if that same system got a certain signal it would remove the phone number from their call list.
this link is automated recording of a disconnected or number not in service. Save this as your voicemail greeting, the tones you hear at the beginning are what tell their system that the number is not in service and remove you from their list.
How to block number in lenovo phab2 plus??......it has no option for privacy in settings and call details also does not show any options to block
I used to use Virgin Mobile with a Galaxy S5. It came with a handy visual voicemail app. Figured that since Virgin Mobile uses the Sprint network that Sprint would offer something similar.
Can't find any such app. Looked in the Sprint pre-installed folder and just alphabetically for either Sprint, visual or voicemail. Nothing.
Is my S8+ unique or did it get lost or overridden when using the Google set up a new device based on another device operation? I did notice a few old or inappropriate apps getting installed because they were on my other device.
Sprint does have a visual voicemail app that should come installed with your phone. On my Galaxy S8, it's a bright yellow icon that says Voicemail.

Here you go latest version
I used Bk uninstall to disable all the Sprint bloat and Installed Youmail. There is no other app for visual voicemail like it. You can set up individual Answer Messages fot each contact, you block callers, my favorite feature is to have the system tell unwanted callers that my number is disconnected, Or have Spockd Voice tske a message. And best of all is free. I even have it at my home line and the Messages left there go to my email.
My unlocked S8 came with no vvm app. Installing the apk linked above doesn't work (thanks for posting, though), as it appears that it does not integrate with the system. I also have the persistent VM icon after reboot.

I have the same issue with my unlocked S8, did you ever find a work around? I tried youmail but didnt like that it wasn't generic and used my contact names during the message.
Me and my husband just got unlocked Note 8's. We actually had YouMail before and it wouldn't work for either one of us and I chatted with the YouMail support person and they gave me different numbers to try and mind started working. But my husband still won't work and says something about ocn carrier error and he even tried the same numbers that work for me and they won't work for him on his phone it's weird.
We have Sprint and I have something in my notifications that will not go away that says 4 new voicemails dial *86 his doesn't have that. I just leave it cause I don't want to reset my phone but I'm thinking something backed up from my 7 Edge to make that appear in my notifications and won't go away. But I don't know why the numbers you mail gave me worked on my phone and not his.
What's another good free VM app? Thanks!
Hello all... I have a galaxy s6 sm-g920f international unlocked, using android 7.0 BTU firmware updated to newest.
I have been with Cricket for 3 yrs, but currently outside the US for 2 months and I allowed my account/phone number to become suspended. So, I am using whatsapp without an activated sim installed.
All previously working contacts in whatsapp are still working normally by wifi, however I am finding that there is now no way to message any new contacts that I add to the phone.
I mention the state of the phone and the sim since someone I know has suggested that maybe the lack of an activated sim/mobile account is the reason that the app is not recognizing new whatsapp contacts.
Anyone have any idea what is the reason for this?
Robert
