I would like to know too...thanks!
I'm still on 4.2.2 but with all the troubles that Voice+ has blocking text messages, I just want to get rid of the whole Voice package all together and go back to VVM. Is there a VVM that works pre 4.3?
bump for my sanity...anyone..please...lol
What is it doing? I upgraded to 4.3 on 11/15 and the VVM app "worked". I say "worked" because the transcription is awful. I just ran the RUU because I accidentally soft bricked my phone, and the VVM app still seems to be working.
What is it the voicemail doing? I'm on Sprint stock 4.3 and my voicemail app is working just fine. I don't pay extra for Premium transcription service, but other than that my messages come right to the Voicemail app, no problem.

Don't know what I did, but I was using a 2.1 rom and it was sending text voicemail notifications. Well I went back to 1.5 and the voicemail app is not receiving the voicemails, I am still getting text notification.

Try going into call settings and putting in your number or *86. Or do a full wipe and install of the ROM
Running DamageControl V1...fixin' to try 1.1

Were you using GVoice for voicemail on the 2.1 and now using sprint voicemail on 1.5? If so did you disconnect your mobile line to your gvoice account?
Nope didn't use google voice.... And I think it might be something with the actual voicemail system. If I ran ruu and then started over, would that work?
Ok fixed it.... ruu'd and now everything is straight
Hi,
One of the features i miss from my iphone is visual voicemail...
I know there's a way to get google voice visual voicemail to work with your phone, but google voice doesn't work in Canada...
I have a Bell i9000 unlocked to Fido, does anyone know if there's a way i could get visual voicemail on my sgs???
Thanks
Sorry i only know of google voice which is so much better. I dont miss "visual VM" at all.
Only wishing for a better Exchange email client and improved copy&paste (guess that is what 2.3 will bring).

There's a service called "hullomail" which gives you visual voicemail, but it's not available in Canada yet. hullomail.com
If you have inclusive long-distance calling to the US (I can't remember whether Fido offer that or not - it's a while since I used Fido) then you might find you can make it work for you.
Can the Epic visual voice mail be ported to the nexus some how? Has anyone tried this?

Some people have mentioned waiting to see if the Visual Voice mail from the SGSii on from Sprint will be a possibility
If you want the same functionality use google voice and DO NOT integrate your number. Go through the normal gv setup and then it basically acts just like vvm did

Nope, and that was a setting that could be changes @ google.com/voice anyway
You have to set up Google voice using sprint #, then wait 15 mins
Then Google to Google voice on your laptop browser and deactivate your sprint # to go back to your regular Google voice #
Then you should be able to go back to phone and use Google voice only for voicemail

Just install and set up google voice DO NOT INTEGRATE the tick the box for voicemail ONLY if that is all you want to do for now. I was very hesitant to do this and finally did, it works perfectly and you also get free voice mail transcriptions to text as well.

Outside of the GV recommendations given here...
I think you're going to find that the answer is no. The Nexus series on Sprint has the voice mail routed through a different server than regular Sprint phones, and thus renders the Sprint Visual Voicemail app useless. You will find that it will install, and you can open it, but it will find no voice mail from the server.
I wish I had a link to prove this as it comes up often, but either a Sprint Tech or some smart member of this community (or some other android community) explained it all once.
Give Google Voice a shot....

Yes, I ran into these same issues with the Epic and the EVO when using AOSP roms (Cyanogenmod, MIUI, etc). This is probably the same issue on the Nexus S because is uses AOSP firmware. What ends up happening here is that the vm app installs, but it does not configure correctly to download voicemail. The solution I found on another thread worked perfectly on the Epic/EVO, and should work fine on the nexus. If it doesn't, let me know, I'm curious (im on gv so i dont use the app anymore). Here it is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=982966
I was so excited, but I couldn't get it to work. I read, re read, and tried to follow directions, usually very good at it, but couldn't find any of this on Titanium Backup as they kept discussing. I looked through everything, even tried step 10, could not get anything to work after loading the .apk. It kept
trying to verify everything and just had wheels spinning.
It does show an email pack in the notifications, but since I just upgraded from CM7 to 2.3.7, don't know if this is the new notification or part of the visual
voicemail that remains on my phone.
You had my hopes up, good info, but didn't work for me.
So a couple of days ago I sideloaded the 4.4 hangouts app and selected SMS. For some reason after I did this my voicemail reverted to something called sprint SMS voicemail. I get a text from sprint saying I have a new voicemail and I provides a number to call or an HTML link. The number is always a busy signal and the link opens chrome and what looks like a flash player but nothing plays. I try to reenable the visual voicemail app, but cant select it in the app manager. Thus I no longer have voicemail. I suppose I might have to wait for kit Kat, but does anyone have any ideas about how to fix this problem in the meantime?

Same here, only difference I have the real Hangouts, I realized it yesterday (I don't get many VMs), I wonder if it has anything to do with HG...
UPDATE: Apparently it's a major Sprint issue, I just Googled it, but I couldn't find a fix... G'luck and lemme know if you found anything

My own update:
Based off my research, it appears that the problem is that the hangouts app grabs the voicemail sms and intercepts it before the voicemail app can retrieve it. Thus as it stands now, hangouts sms is incompatible with sprint v vm. Hopefully the sprint kit kat update will fix this problem.
As of now the only way to get v vm is to disable sms in hangouts and to renable the v vm app. I've done this,and my voicemail is working normally now.

Great, thanx... Sucks, but getting my VMs is more important to me than SMS in Hangouts app

This might be a dumb question but I can't get my voicemail to work after disabling SMS in hangouts. What exactly did you do to re-enable the VM app? Also, I have the Sprint HTC One but I haven't seen this talked about anywhere else.
thanks.
Two things: reload the latest .apk (search for it on xda). Once it is loaded reenable the app in settings. Open the app and rerecord your greeting.

I just randomly decided to try Hangouts again, and it seems to be working fine. Is anybody else still having any issues?
All,
Got an unlocked S21U, ported from VZW to T-Mo, installed the T-Mo voicemail app, but I keep getting a VM notification from the app AND the phone dialer itself. I don't see any way to mute it. Am I missing something? Can't see a way to fix it.
Any ideas what I am "missing" by not having T Mo firmware?
Thanks

Sorry, yes, I did and it works, but now I get two notifications for each voicemail, one from the phone, and one from the TMo VVM app.

Are all of the voicemails deleted from the visual voicemail app? If so, i would call T-Mobile next .
Can't you simply disable phone app voice mail notifications?I use google voice for my visual voicemail and I believe I disabled notifications for voicemail notice dialer

Alas I do not have the option to silence the native phone dialer voicemail
Ever since I disabled the Samsung Phone app, visual voicemail hasn't worked at all for me. I have to dial my own phone number to access my voicemail the old-school way... It kinda stinks, but I just hated the Samsung phone app for its lack of calling over LTE whereas Google Phone still worked fine with calls over LTE (and had my blocked number list saved from when I had the Pixel prior to this phone).
I forward my calls if not answered to google voice which transcribes my VM so I have native visual voicemail instead of paying tmo for their version of vvm
