I can send and receive texts from everyone but my wife.
Both of us have RUU'd to updated Sprint HK version.
However, I couldn't send our receive SMS from her before this.
We can't use Hangouts SMS, Sense SMS, or any other messaging app.
The conversations DO show up in Google Voice, but we never get notifications from any selected messaging app we choose.
The weird thing is, I can send her MMS fine on any messaging app.
Any ideas?
Disable the number through Google voice or try the ##72786#?

Well as long as your on sense ##72786# does a reset to the profile and prl portions it's solved issues in the past for me and was just trying to explore all options
Of course you click reset after entering the code

You can do the same thing through "Activate this device" in the settings. I tried that with both phones.
MMS is working fine through Sense messaging app, but SMS doesn't work at all.
Alright.
I guess since I used Google Voice for Voicemail, it disabled the Voicemail app that comes with Sense.
Deleted Voice from account, and now Voicemail app and messaging work.
Thank you for the help. Not the first time Google Voice screwed something up for my phone.
But, if I switch to AOSP, I'll have to use Voice again, so will it screw up again?
Only one way to find out lol

Thanks again. I would have bashed my head against the wall sooner or later over this. No SMS app was working.

It's possible it messes up again, but don't think it will, but you will never know unless you try it

New update for google voice!! It includes (I think) push notification for text messages!
Yeah it does. Read more here: http://googlevoiceblog.blogspot.com/2010/03/faster-google-voice-experience-on.html
Yep, sure looks that way. I wonder if it's necessary to put Google Voice on ignore list for task killer apps though.

Yes it is. If you kill the GV process, you won't receive notifications.
Advanced Task Manager has "Apps", "Services", "All Apps", and "System". I think it's OK to kill it from "Apps", but not the other tabs.
I don't seem to get push notifications on my voicemail. I haven't check with texts yet....
hooray!!!!

You may have already done this, but it case you haven't, there's a new setting that has to be enabled for the instant notifications to work.

I did have that enabled. I had to reboot and then the notifications seemed to work better.

Same here. I had to go to my backup file in oder to use it. Thank Goodness for Back-Ups
Same here. I was, however, able to sign in after selecting "sign in using a different account" and using my same account info.
I love this update because of the sync with inbox. When I first finished installing the update I couldn't send a sms or do the sync so I just rebooted, ran fix_permissions, and that fixed everything!
The google blog post said the inbox syncing would stop the forwarding of a google voice SMS to the phone's regular SMS number. That is NOT the case for me. I'm still getting google voice SMS'es forwarded to my cell's number. This double text receiving is the single greatest aggravation of google voice texting.

That worked....but the weird thing is I don't have inbox sync as a new option. I still have the refresh option, but it says that it's the new version. I'll try to uninstall and reboot.
edit: Still no new options.
Guys, am I alone in this? The new Voice app is not syncing/pushing texts for me, nor is it not forwarding. It's behaving like the old one.

Why even whine about this? Just go to the website and uncheck forwarding.

You don't understand how Voice forwarding works. The "forwarding" setting on the Voice website is for additional forwarding of a text to an email address. Voice by default has always forwarded to the cell phone number associated with the Voice account. That was supposed to end with this update.
The Google blog post says the following:
"...feature called Inbox synchronization, which will notify your Android-powered device of new text messages or voicemails within seconds of receiving new messages..."
and
"Plus, Google Voice will automatically disable SMS forwarding to your mobile phone, so you won’t receive duplicate notifications."
It's odd to me that both these features do not work. Maybe we can figure out something by discussing.
btw, why is this whining? We're discussing an app and its features. We're trying to get this working and comparing notes with others. I don't whine... ever. We're blessed to have such amazing phones and software to begin with.

I'd be a dummy if I couldnt set up Google Voice, I would say the voicemail part is seperate being that I can still use Google Voice without forwarding my voicemail.
I'm talking about the voicemail forwarding process for Google Voice. I can never forward my voicemail to use Google Voice's. It denies me. If I need to make it clearer let me know.
I can dial and recieve google voice calls, I tried to forward with the Google Voice app and manually with the dialer.

That IS the process provided by the Google Voice app..so yes I've tried it. It wont let me, I'll try and get a screen shot. SO u guys can keep helpin'
ok...so I don't know howta add pictures...
I got Google Voice as my voicemail provider without any issues tho the little setup process during the initial google voice setup did not work.
On your phone open the dialer program and enter the following *004*YourGoogleNumber# and then Send or call.
So it should look like *004*15555551234#
These directions are in google voice if you log in from a PC and go to Settings > Voice Settings > Phones > Activate/Deactivate Voicemail on this phone.
Are you on Flex-Pay? I think they dissable the auto-magic google voice setup on flex-pay accounts.
The manual method mentioned should work fine.

Is there any way to be notified of voicemails WITHOUT having sprint_core.apk, the visual voicemail app, installed? also, is there any way to retrieve google voice voicemails from my handset without using the google voice app?
thank you thank you

For GV, you can go to google.com/voice in your browser, it works the same way
Not sure about the other question
If you have your phone configured to forward to google voice, then its impossible for you to get actual phone voicemails so I dont see your use case. I really wouldn't mess with that voicemail apk either. If anything you can freeze it in Titanium backup if you dont like the fact that it runs in the background, but it will probably break other parts of the system.
ive ran without the vm apk before, it works fine. the only thing that doesnt, is notifications. when im left a vm without the app installed- i am not notified.
if im setup to forward unanswered calls to google voicemail, is there any way to retreive the voice messages on google voice with my handset, without the google voice app?

while i appreciate your efforts, as far as im concerned you keep posting lateral solutions. the google voice site on the browser kinda sucks. im given an option to download the file to the sd card...
ultimately the goal is to remove sprintcore while still being notified of the voicemail that is left. i wouldnt want to remove something just to have to add something to do the job.
thank you thank you
You can always use google voice to send you an email/text when you have a message, and check it the old fashioned way (by dialing in).

Hello it seems Google Voice is not compatible with the Bionic. Is there a manual work around? I remember reading a while back a way to do this with the thunderbolt. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It says: unfortunately your carrier is not supported for automatic voicemail configuration. To use google voice as your voicemail provider, please visit the google voice help center more more information.
I got that error message too, but the voice mail does in fact work ok.
The problem I am having is that my google voice number is not showing as the calling number, even though it is set to be. I have tried changing the settings to ask each time, and it does not ask. It is still not working after rebooting too.

Just go to the google voice site on a computer and enter your phone number manually in the google voice settings on the website. It is a very self explanatory process once there. After that, go into your wireless network settings on your bionic and change the Voicemail settings from "my carrier" to "google voice." Not sure where this is on motoblur, but just look around and you should find it. If you get an error message or it freezes, do a reboot, go into the settings again and verify google voice is selected in the Voicemail settings. You should be okay after this.

Thanks for your help gotta it!
So caller id still shows my actual phone number and not my google voice number even when it is configured to do so. Any one else have this problem?
That error came at the point (for me) where it should automatically insert *71###-###-#### (*71 + your google number) in to the dialer to forward missed calls. So I did it manually and GVoice has worked fine for me. I did get one FC, but not sure if it was because of debloat or actual GVoice app. Other than that I have made calls, recieved Vmails and texts through GVoice just fine.

I have not been receiving voicemail notifications on my Turbo. I don't want to have to use Visual Voice Mail. Does anyone have any ideas? Please help, thanks
Did you set it up? This was the first phone I've had in a while that I had to set everything up again and until I did, I wasn't getting them either obviously. Also, make sure that the box to receive notifications is turned on for the app under setting-apps-vm.
I'm having the same problem. Google Voice wasn't picking up for some reason so I switched to VZW VVM and I just flat out don't get a notification even with them enabled. I have to go in and check to see if I have any VMs after I miss a call.

Thanks for the help, I've decided to give Google Voice a try. I get text displays of the messages as well as the audio files to my email
You need to log onto your verizon account on your computer and then switch the voicemail. Go to the free one and not the visual voicemail. Something like that. I just looked and the interface changed and I can't find where to do it now. It is a plan feature.
