can you try this?
Open the contact you want to block. press "Menu" then choose "Options"
Check the "send calls directly to voicemail"
this trick will redirect the call to the voicemail answering if you've voicemail activated. if not, the call will be rejected.

Call your provider and tell them to turn off your voicemail.

It's not for my voicemail, it's when I call someone, I want an app which stop call before my contact's voicemail because screen turn off and it's long to turn off the call.

So, if I understand correctly, you want an app that will hang you up before a voicemail answers?
I don't believe such a creature exists. I can't imagine that there would be a way for an app to distinguish between a real person answering or a voicemail.

Check the screenshots below. Open the contact and press Menu, you'll see the first screen-shot.
then press "options" and it will take you to second screen-shot. check the "Incoming Calls" as shown in the screenshot.
after that, what happens is, if you've enabled your voicemail, the call will be directly diverted to voicemail auto answering. If there's no voicemail activated, it will simply rejected. there's no need for you to pay any attention.

google voice for voicemail?

anyone able to set up google voice as the voicemail provider? I was able to for the most part...except for when people are actually forwarded to voicemail. google asks the caller to dial in my number again. it's seems very inconvenient.

Sorta the wrong place to ask this, but let me see if I can answer it.
I have done this on both my EVO 4G and my wife's EVO Shift without any problems at all. As long as you follow Googles instructions to the letter, you should not have any issues.
It sounds like you don't have Google "tied" to your phone correctly. I would try running through the activation again on their web site?

[Q] Anybody having issues with Google Voice?

Hey all,
So I installed google voice so I could retrieve my voicemails, and there's no option in the new version that allows you to choose when to use google voice for calls.
So now, all of my outgoing calls are using my GVoice number instead of my cell number. I've tried signing out of GVoice as well as digging through all of the settings and it still remains. It even sends from my GVoice number when I text.
Anybody having this problem?
Thanks!
Nevermind.. Figured it out.
But for anyone wondering, you have to log into your account through the web and disable GVoice on your phone. You'll still get voicemails, but it won't call/text from that number.
So the issue is Google Voice app is now aware of being installed on a Sprint phone. The app will automatically integrate your service with GV is you dont pay attention. You can click "skip" when you first install and then it will convert to the normal install screens we are use to seeing. I totally missed it when I first installed, spent time on the phone with tech support etc. Hope this helps others.
I had the SAME problem and took me about a half hour to figure out what the hell was going on
Me too. I wasn't getting any SMS and I was like "what the [email protected]*K! Spent some time on the phone w/ tech support myself and that's when it dawned on me that I had integrated it w/ my HeroC.
I don't know if thus is the same issue but all my texts are coming through gv instead if the message app. Stock message app and I only use gv for vm. Any suggestions?

Uninstall GV
Go to GV on your computer and unlink your sprint and google number
Install GV
CLICK SKIP ON THE FIRST SCREEN!!!! <== for most people who use GV we dont read this but this is where it asked you to integrate your Sprint and GV number
??????
Profit!
Okay I somehow fixed my sms issue and now I have another issue. When I get a call or call my self from a seperate phone...on the calling phone, it rings normally. After about 4 rings, my phone, receiving the call, will start to play the ringtone which gives me 2 or so rings to answer. I have no idea what happened

Not the answer you're looking for... but use Google Voice instead of VVM, you get more features, and no nag ....

Google Voice will set it up for you when you install the app. Most Android ROMs even let you select carrier or Google Voice in settings also if you have the GV app installed.
To do it manually, you set your "Busy", "Unanswered" and "Not Available" forwarding options all to your GV # in call settings. By default they're set to T-Mobile's voicemail #. Takes the T-Mobile VVM out of the loop entirely, but lets you still use your TMO phone #. Then you can filter callers on GV, such as giving a different outgoing message to friends & family versus unknown callers or even bill collectors. You can also get the voicemails transcribed as a text sent to you for free, not for pay as TMO's service is.
Then you take the VVM app off your phone and off your plan if you want.

Google voice help

Maybe I'm an idiot but I can't figure it out. I'm new to Google voice.. I'm trying to use it for my voicemails but when I go through the setup it tells me my carrier doesn't support this feature..
Is the Thunderbolt not able to use Google voice to receive voicemails?

I was trying to use Google Voice to make free calls, but gave up due to worse quality then Skype.
I did try the voicemail feature once but had to logon to my google account from my pc. It apparently set up some sort of forwarding option and i had to call some google phone number to check my voicemails.
I've been using it for Voicemail only since i've owned the original Droid. Works fine on my thunderbolt. Setup just had to dial a number to forward my voice mail and that was it. I'm on stock rooted. ROM bug maybe?

I used this website's instructions for help. Google Voice Setup Help
Search Google voice on your PC once you are logged in there's a little gear on the top left of your web page. Click that and choose voice settings. I just did mine tonight. Lol

i came to post this. set it up from your PC then set google voice on your phone to control voice mail. that's all it takes.
U don't get to make free calls, just free text messaging. Also when u make calls it changes ur number. Say u call ur mom and her number is 123 5555555, but when u look at bill it will say I made the call but it won't show her number, shows the number google made up.

Google Voice for Voicemail

Anybody able to set up Google Voice for voice messaging? Keep getting error messages "failed to retrieve and save current forwarding number settings"

I got it to work by setting it up online at www.google.com/voice. Just go to settings and follow the link to Activate Voicemail. Then back on the device, check off Google Voice in the settings and quickly hit the home button. That should make it work.
This worked for me. To be clear, at the point of choosing voicemail service in call settings, choose Google voice, then hit the home key, NOT yes.

I tried this, but I can't make the notifications to work. Has anyone been able to do it?
I'm able to get callers to get to my Gvoicemail but I also get no notifications or integration into the android phone app...
