Sprint Visual Voicemail on ICS

I have heard that sprint visual voicemail works on the nexus on ics can anyone help
I have got the vtt-sprint.apk installed it and updated prl and prolfile on wifi and 3g/4g and still cant get the activation message to go through.

VVM on Sprint Network
I hate to be the bearer of bad news. First, VVM does work, but in order to get it to work you must completely switch to Google Voice. To do this, from any computer that you are logged into with your google account, visit google.com/voice and completely set that up. It will ask you to pick a new telephone number and it will walk you through setting up the voicemail box and all that.
Once you have all that set up it will allow you to forward calls to your cell. I recommend this rather than switching completely to Google Voice.
You can further, once you've completed this, from within your Sprint Account, choose to use strictly Google Voice but this will mean you will either forfeit the new number you just chose, or the one you have on your phone.
If you choose to keep your original number that was on th ephone first, it will migrate to your Google Voice box and your call forwarding will become a hardwired thing... Google will no longer forward calls to another number, but rather all calls to your cell number will forward to your device through hardware routing performed solely at the discretion of Google.
Sprint will, in a sense, no longer have any control over your call routing. It really makes for a total disaster to get problems resolved if you ever experience call routing issues.
In my opinion, this is an awful lot to go through, too large of a chance for errors and a royal pain in the neck to go through just for visual voicemail.
I have the closest thing possible set up... I use the number I assigned to my Google Voice box, and I set up forwarding to my phone(it's nice because I can also answer calls from my computer if I want, and if I ever change carriers I keep the number on my Google Voice box and simply set it back up to forward to another cell phone number on another carrier).
If someone calls my google voice number, it automatically forwards to my cell. If I do not answer, it reverts back to my Google Voice box voicemail and if the caller leaves a message it records it for me, transcribes it and both text's it to me and leaves a copy of the transcript in my gmail box for me for later review. It also attaches the recording to the email. Very nice feature.
So, now, I only hand out my Google Voice number and nobody ever knows my actual cell phone number. Very private if you ask me, that, and if I ever terminate my service with my cell carrier, I still have the number I give to every one and can answer it from my Gmail box. No cell phone required. I never miss calls...
There are other options with Google Voice I did not discuss here, but you will figure that out. Message me if you have any other questions. Also click thanks on my post to help me become an active member if you think this helps.

I have had google voice before but i wanted to get the native sprint app working. I have hear that sprint routes the nexus voicemail to a different server so it was never meant to work. but i have heard ppl having it work on GB but i just moved over to ICS and was attempting to get it to work but I can't get the activation message to send

Can you send me the apk so I can have a try at it?

Voicemail Routing
Working for AT&T, I do know that voicemail routing is going to be your only issue. If a customer has Visual Voicemail, the feature needs to be provisioned as such and, yes, the voicemail repository server is located in a different place on different hardware. Provisioning VVM at AT&T also required that the data feature be provisioned differently. There is data for smart phones with and without vvm attached.
So, if you do not have the visual voicemail feature provisioned on your account with sprint that is the reason you are unable to successfully configure the app. The basic voicemail servers can not handle the VVM. In most cases VVM is free for smart phones, but with sprint, I doubt that to be the case.
I am satisfied with the Google Voice operation and the added layers of security it provides.

heh...clean simple and no hassles -> Go to Market and type in YouMail, download and install, follow prompts through the simple and easy setup, enjoy your new VVM
NS4G: NexusMV 4G 03.01 (Baked in Matr1x) + 1460MHz/1460MHz SmartassV2 & CWM Touch Recovery

I'm gonna call sprint to have them provision my account and try to activate vvm

Spoke with sprint they setup everything on their side and verified it and my activation message still won't go thru I I might be the apk. I tried the gb apk but it fc when I try to send

They are saying its a phone based routing problem (blaming ICS) because it works in gb and they cite a flaw in the ICS VVM API
Its a sad song

Here you go guys, enjoy.

Google Voice Visual Voicemail Integrated Into Stock Dialer
After a while of trying to tamper with Sprint's visual voicemail, I found that it was just easier to go with Google Voice. The new integration with ICS makes it even better.

I don't think sprint vvm is supported on the nexus

SIP account details is missing "Authentication Username"

If you go under Settings-> Call ->Accounts and try to add a SIP account for internet calling, the setting "Authentication username" is MIA.
I believe this setting is required in order to get the SIP account setup properly (or at least in my experience). Without it, I keep getting the "Authentication failed" error. This very setting is available on my Nexus 4. However, my N4 is running 4.2.2. So I'm not sure whether the root of the issue is Android 4.1.2 or is this an HTC Sense issue.
I called HTC this morning and they were not very helpful in the sense that the rep did not know much about this whole internet calling thing. He looked at multiple other HTC devices and none had the setting so he thinks that it is either not required, or the carrier decided to have it removed. He could not look at the developer edition because he did not have one handy. But my guess is that the issue is present on all the Sense versions of android 4.1.2, or Android 4.1.2 for that matter.
Can anyone with knowledge on this setting tell me whether they've been able to setup a SIP account without any issue (and w/o this setting) using the android native SIP account settings? If so how did you workaround the missing setting?
Also, is there anyone with an HTC developer edition that can have a look and see if the "Authentication username" setting is present?
See the screenshots of the SIP account details screen I'm talking about. You will notice that the setting I'm inquiring about is not present.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!

OnCircle feature

my OnCircle feature doesnt work. It is turned ON and so is advanced messaging. But the feature still doesn't work
.

Don't feel bad mine doesn't either, don't bother calling Samsung as they will not have any ideas to help. Don't call your carrier because they will just refer you to Samsung. Don't go to bestbuy asking because the Samsung rep will say that its because of Google hangouts (at least that is what my rep said) odds are its just something that only works in China somewhere

spent hours speaking to Samsung and Optus yesterday and eventually managed to figure out It is carrier based and also some features only work if your contact has a S6 or S6 edge

**** works perfectly for me.. only can send it to my girlfriend coz she has the normal edge..

It only works when other person has an edge (plus) too.

Anyone with any variant of the s6 or s7 and Note 5 can OnCircle. The b problem is is that there are a few bugs preventing it from working...
1. To test first go ahead and save your own number as a contact and go to MyPeople and see if you pop up. If you do then that means your OnCircle is working fine and the others either does not or doesn't have a compatible device...
2. If you do not pop up on MyPeople go to your default Messages app: More>Settings>Enhanced Messaging and turn it on if it was off go ahead and try to do the step 1 test if it was on/ still will not work continue to step 3
3. Go to your default Messages app: More>Settings>Enhanced Messaging>Registered Information and make sure all options are checked and test out step 1 again if it fails them go to step 4
4. Go to your default Messages app: More>Settings>Enhanced Messaging>Registered Information>More>Deregister Phone Number...
Then re-register it and once it's registered go ahead and turn on all the required settings like Enhanced Messaging, Profile Sharring, OnCircle etc... then test out step 1 again and it should work this time, if not reboot and try again and if still no go then your carrier does not support Enhanced Messaging. Try modifying your APN, for instance i cannot use Enhanced Messaging with a Simple Mobile APN so i use the T-Mobile APN which works perfectly...
***Profile Sharing allows you to be found by other contacts that have OnCircle only if you both have each other saved as contacts (you can modify these settings) but just like IMessage and FaceTime, your profile data is hosted on samsungs server so go to Contacts>MyProfile and make sure you share only the information you want, and even if you don't share your address, samsung will still have it on their servers so if privacy is your issue, don't fill out this information, and check to see if it was autofilled by your Samsung Account.
If you would like to add me on OnCircle and test out the features, send me a message on Skype and I'll be willing to add more friends to my very very low count of 2 OnCircle Friends, (one's myself).
Thank you.

Can't send MMS on ATT!

Okay so I am not using their stock Messaging app, I am using Google Messenger and I am able to send/receiver SMS, but cannot send MMS, it just says "tap to try again".
I have gone into the permissions and granted all the permissions available....
Any help? I can also make and receive phone calls, MMS is the only issue...

I got the same issue on T-Mobile, Google Messenger can send SMS but cannot send/receive MMS, also the same thing happens with Textra.

check with this user also in the u.s

hate this 2015 complicated answer comment system

Yup, not working.
I tried what that guy suggested and it just won't work.
I granted it all my permissions, I also tried making it default messenger as well as putting it on priority.... I'm on the Chinese ROM not the Vendor / Multi language ROM

Have you double checked the APN is setup correctly? Also do you have mobile data when not on wifi? AT&T's HSPA network literally does not work in some areas, mine being one of them. This will in fact affect MMS.

It can't be an APN issue if SMS/MMS works with the stock messenger app, the problem seems to be that somehow the phone isn't letting MMS messages send/receive from any 3rd party apps.

glad I'm not the only one with the issue bro.
I slowly starting to get used to the stock app, slowly...

Just a few tests that I have run.
I have updated the APN as stated for other International phones unlocked in the past. For example Huawei Mate 8. After doing that the phone was able to MMS.
In following the same process the phone cannot perform the MMS. It can SMS but will not MMS or maintain a group type SMS.
I think the main issue comes from the locale setting on the Xiaomi. All other other International ( Chinese phones) do have under country or locale the USA as an option.
This may not seem important but it does for AT&T.
The combination of the APN and the Locale settings tells the OS and the Carrier that the Phone is authorized but also that it is in the USA were the MMS is allowed.
Not having both of these creates a conflict on the Xiaomi Mix that other International phones don't have . Huawei, ZTE, Vivo, LeEco, Asus,etc.
I have also noticed that certain Apps like Outlook or Blackberry App when setting a calendar invite also have problem with Time Zone setting a revert to the wrong locations
Overall I think we need a way to insert USA as a region or locale so the phone and carrier can play nice at the APN settings

Same issue for me....sigh

Google Voice, Garmin Connect, other apps mysteriously stop in background -- help...

I've noticed that at least two apps will mysteriously stop working in the background, causing problems:
First, most important, I use my Google Voice number, not my SIM number, so I need Google Voice to be running so that it intercepts my calls and uses the right phone number to make calls. If I open Google Voice, it will work for a few hours, maybe a day, and then GV stops working and calls start going out through my SIM number.
The other app that exhibits this behavior is Garmin Connect -- my watch gives me notifications, but then, for no reason, it will stop working. Opening Garmin Connect solves the problem.
I have ensured all permissions are set as liberally as possible, even the "allow autostart" option. Not sure what else to do. Any ideas would be great. I did not have this problem with my Mi 8.
Thanks!

I think I had a similar problem with the Runtastic app that I use for running: After around one minute of screen off time it would stop getting GPS data.
I fixed it by adding it to the list of apps that is allowed to run in the background. You can find this setting in the power and battery settings ("Akku & Leistung" in German).

I think you are talking about the Battery Saver > Choose apps ("Saving power in the background") list. In that list, you can set background settings for each app. I had both of these apps already set to the most liberal setting, "No restrictions (Battery saver doesn't restrict app's activity)". I changed them both to the second setting, "Battery saver (recommended)", which seems to be an automated, smart method the phone uses.
I also decided to try turning off the Use Adaptive Battery setting ("Limit battery for apps that you don't use often"). Maybe this is the culprit.

Any luck there yet? My vivo active hr does not even show live notifications....
