Moto X4 XT1900-1 did not come with any extra bloatware apps which I am grateful of from factory. But it also does not have a visual voicemail. I have sprint and just started to use this phone. Sprint visual voicemail app is not support I believe outside of sprint devices. I try getting it from play store, but it will not show up for this phone.
Any one got visual voicemail working? I dont want to forward to Google Voice number and then get voicemail at that number. I couldnt find a way for GV to receive voicemail from my actual sprint number without forwarding calls.
any help please?
I am sure I am no the only one with the issue with android one version!
can someone help out please. I did not see this being answered anywhere on this site or google!

loving the heck out of CM, but i'm having a very specific issue:
I have the unlimited android plan, activated VV, all the good stuff. However, whenever I miss a call, and someone leaves me a voicemail message, I do not receive the message. What I get instead is a text message from a 954(?) area code, that has the date, time, and number of the person who called me. no voicemail at all, just the text message. Anyone else having this problem, or know how to correct it? i've wiped/reflashed CM and 1.6 dev, removed and reinstalled VV.
Are you using TMO Visual Voicemail or the Visual Voicemail from PhoneFusion?
Phonefusion sucks and it forwards your voicemails to a different number that they host from their site...if you are using that version, you need to go to the site and follow the instructions to unsubscribe. Simply uninstalling the app will not change your voicemail back...
If you are using TMO, did you call customer care and have them activate it on their end or only on your end? Also, check your voicemail number and make sure it's the correct one. You can check it in settings and TMO will tell you what the number should be...
I am running the same rom and no issues at all with TMO VV.
can anyone please upload their Visual Voicemail app for AT&T? I bought a Galaxy S2 and cannot seem to find the default visual voicemail app in the marketplace (probably because my phone is from Europe and is not recognized by the american marketplace)
thanks in advance =]

In a related note: I went to my local AT&T store to see if they could get it working for me, but they supposedly said that google removed visual voicemail apps from the marketplace. WTF?
Doesn't belong in the dev section.
As for an answer, I've never had Visual Voicemail on my phone. I thought that was iPhone exclusive.
I've never had visual voicemail from at&t either. I do however use google voice for my voicemail and I like that a lot better than the iphones visual voice as it transcribes the message too.

Have you tried google it first?
Visual Voicemail is currently available for BlackBerry® Bold™ smartphone users*.
As has been mentioned, it isn't available for Droid. There are alternate options.
Also as has been mentioned, this IS NOT A DEV concern. This is the very reason they put a minimum post count cap on posting in the DEV section. Apparently they must have gone back and changed it.
Send this to General...
And download Google Voice. It is vastly superior to that dinosaur VVM...
I posted this in the dev section because I was planning on porting the app over to the SGS2
anyway, I remember seeïng the visual voicemail app a long time ago on some Tmobile devices; I'm new, i thought it was still around
I use Youmail. Its great!!
YouMail
Try YouMail. It works great.
Google Voice.
You can use your current phone number and have visual voicemail.
Go to google.com/voice on your computer to set it up, then get the app.

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

With Verizon, you have to manually set the call forwarding to your Google Voice. There are 3 different instances when you want to have your calls forwarded.
See this thread for more info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo/general/fix-google-voice-forwarding-advanced-t2980980
When setting up Google Voice app on the phone, it will probably tell you that the app couldn't set up voicemail properly. That is ok, because you are doing it manually.
However, with the latest Hangouts/SMS changes, I'm not even sure you need the google voice app, if you set your google voice messages to use Hangouts.

I'm not on the same carrier but I failed to get it to work properly with mine I could get notifications and call I'd but no actual message.
For t-mobile this has been "broken" for months.
From the web it seems that T-Mobile dropped support for the built in visual voicemail. You have to use their app and well it doesn't work ever for me. It doesn't sync, or notifies, and constantly throws error saying we can't access voicemail please dial voicemail instead.
This just means my voicemail is now never ever checked.
Sign up for a Google voice. Set the phone calls to forward to the number if you are not available. Use it for voicemail. It will transcribe and email them to you.
Att's app sucks also. I miss my built in from Windows mobile 10 and this was the next best things.
