I was wondering if the radio version could be the cause of my phone not receiving the voice mail notifications? It shows on the front when i get a voice mail but it doesn't say new voice mail above it, it has a V looking thing above it. Nothing shows in my notifications so I cant clear off the new voice mail symbol at the top of my phone even after i check the voice mail and make sure I have no new voice mails. Anyone have an idea how to fix this problem? Thanks for help with all my stupid problems and questions.
VoiceMail
hello, I was just wondering if anyone has any idea why voicemail notifications will not clear. I have unlocked my cingular 3125 and flashed the ROM to WM 6.1. I have no voicemails and it still says there is a new voice message. I have two carriers a local and ATT. Both my cingular 3125 phones are unlocked but whatever phone my local sim card is in tells me there is a new voice message. any ideas?
Posting this to see if anyone else has this, and if any one knows how to make it work.
I use Google Voice for my international calls, but after the upgrade the dialer takes over, Google voice can not be used to "only make international calls"
i have to use "ask for every call" which is not the best solution.
[EDIT] that option does not work either
I'm having the exact same problem.
I even made several international phone calls, thinking that maybe Google Voice was running in the background... now I'll get hit with the charges for international calls from AT&T :s
Any solution to this problem?
I'm using the X10i 2.1 Global firmware on a X10a (AT&T)
hope this helps

Looks like as sony do not use default dialer it is going to be a problem

unfortunately the suggested process does not work
I found a way to make calls by google voice. I went to the browser, went to the google voice website, and from there, I placed the call. Then I received the phone call from my google number, and it connected me to the number I was calling.
It's more troublesome than just using the app, but it is a workaround.
Any other ideas or solutions?

When you do that, aren't you still using the GSM network and your sim card to have the call connected?
I am having identical problems (2.1 Nordic) and trying to use google voice over WiFi to avoid using network minutes but Sony's dialer takes over... hopefully sony or GV will update and fix this real soon... very frustrating

I use Google Voice for international calls... so I'm still using my GSM minutes, but just as a local call, not with international rates.
Have same problem. Cost me one expensive international phone call.
Generic FW, Build 2.0.A.0504 - X10i/ATT USA
GV screen comes up, then native dialer takes over. Have used workaround posted above, but naturally would just like to be able to use it as intended.
Just a heads up to anyone who has updated to 2.1.
I have the Rogers 2.1 and using AT&T as the carrier. GV does not work for ANY of my outgoing phone calls even when I specify to use GV only.
If the issue is SE's dialer, is there a way to revert back to the generic dialer?
Thanks
I'm also having this issue, only after recently upgrading my X10 to the generic 2.1 software. I wonder if anyone has found a solution yet?
I've had this problem since day 1, since I'm from Canada and use my GV to call my american / long distance friends. I have had to use the website workaround since day one, and it really bugs me. When I was working from the iPhone app, it worked properly (call me, then call the number I'm trying to call). Since switching to my X10a, I can't have it just call me, it uses the dialer directly.
So, I use up about 100-200k of my data plan to make the call. Not a big deal, just kind of annoying.
Weird problem. When I get a call, I press to answer the call on my headset then it immediately goes to a female voice that says unknown caller press 1 to answer or 2 to send to voicemail.
Defeats the purpose of Bluetooth if I have to pull the phone out to answer.
Anyone else have this issue?
I called sprint and they said it was htc issue then transferred me to htc and they couldn't figure it out.
I am using a blue ant t1 device.
Thanks!
That would be happening because you synced with Google Voice. Google Voice is intercepting your call and is causing the additional requirement. I think that can be changed in your Google Voice settings if you log in to the actual web app, not the app on the phone. I had the same problem. It was intercepting voice and text. Haven't changed it to use just Google Voice for Voicemail yet.
Bingo!
Sprint couldn't answer...blamed on HTC...HTC couldn't answer said would get back to me in 5 business days...
Come here and BAM!
This site rocks...
Thanks again Skepticalmystic for your help!
Hey everyone, so as you can tell, the Galaxy Player 5 has the phone speaker grill and microphone placed just as if it was a phone. However, I can't seem to find a way to get Google Voice to allow making VoIP phone calls over the Galaxy Player since there isn't a native dialer app built into the phone (from what I can see).
Anyone know a fix around this? I use an AT&T unlimited non-smartphone data plan + DUN connect to have my Galaxy Player connected via the 3G HSDPA network 24/7 and I used it to make calls on my iPod touch prior to picking up a Galaxy. I would love to do the same with this more "Phone-like" device.
If this isn't possible since there isn't a dialer associated with this first "Android" non-phone devs, is there any chance to spoof it into thinking that there is a dialer app so it enables the "Call with Google Voice" function? Considering that it's only using VoIP and not an actual carrier network to carry the call through (unless I'm completely confused lol which is possible).
Thanks in advance!

If you get GrooveIP and combine it with the Google Voice app you can make and receive voice calls through a Google Voice account on the SGP. Many have had good results.
Yep. Get grooveip. It's a paid app but worth every penny. Works flawless.
Thanks both of you! Works great, well worth $5.
Hello everyone. I'm having a bit of an interesting issue, and while (probably) not entirely confined to my new HTC One device, I was hoping you all could give me a bit of assistance!
Yesterday I made the switch from Sprint to AT&T and received my brand new HTC One in the mail. I'm a long time Google Voice user (using since late 2009), and have used it for all texting, calling, and voicemail on all android phones I've owned. I figured when I pre-ordered my phone, for simplicity sake I would just transfer my sprint number over to AT&T so I didn't have to deal with sprint customer support cancelling my service. This seems to have caused some major problems to my use of Google Voice, however. I was able to get everything set up again, but I'm having serious issues receiving calls forwarded from Google Voice to my phone.
During my tests trying to set this up, it appears that I DO have everything configured as I had previously on Sprint. I'm able to place calls and people see my google voice caller id, I can send and receive texts through the voice app, and my conditional forwarding sends all calls (both my regular number and google voice) to google voicemail. When I receive calls, however, I'd say 95% of the time it is so slow to foward that my phone that my callers will hit voicemail before it rings my phone. The only strange thing I see in my google voice settings is that my carrier for that number keeps getting recognized as Sprint instead of AT&T.
In my troubleshooting I've linked my girlfriend's phone (sprint) to my account and a co-workers phone (at&t), both forwarded just fine immediately. At this point I'm kind of running out of ideas. I'm thinking I might run down to an AT&T after work and request a new number. Would this be a reasonable thing to do to try to solve the problem? Since i'm such a new customer, do you think I could get that 36$ new number fee waived? Not being able to receive calls forwarded from my Google Voice number is kind of a deal breaker for me, as I'm heavily reliant on that number at this point. If anyone could provide any advice/assistance it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
