Hi,
Does anyone know how to change the default voice mail number that is set to speed dial "1"? I came from BB and there is an option to enter a password for my voice mail. All I want to do is to add my voice mail password into the default voice mail number. This way I don't have to enter a password when I check voice mail.
Thank you guys!
its under settings/call settings, the problem for me is that its greyed out so I can't edit it. Hopefully you have more success.

Same here! It's greyed out. Anyone?
If you're on AT&T, the VM has a feature where it turns off the need to type in the security code if the call is coming from the handset that the VM is storing messages for. If you dial in on another line, the system will prompt for the security code.
I think this is a better method than entering the code into the dialing process.
yeah either rogers or bell used to do that. (thinking it was bell landline)
Had my Eris rooted & flashed to Cricket. Everything works but voicemail. I tried to set up my voicemail but the menu is missing. I can't access voicemail to check my messages. It will ask for a passcode that I never set up to begin with! It then tells me that every code I enter is incorrect. How can I fix this??
Thanx
Have you tried 0000? How about the last 4 digits of your phone number?
Has anyone else tried to set up google voice for the default voicemail only to receive an error message. It seems att has blocked the changing of voicemail services.

Same here. I couldn't get it to work as well.
I had the same problem, but uninstalling Google voice and installing it again let it go through.

I didnt know if I got a bad phone with a bad flast or how many other people are having problems. It seems that the preorders were a bad batch for the most part. Some arrived DOA, battery covers broke, bricked on arrival. Glad to know I'm not the only one with this issue.ANYONE having problems with quadrand FC'ing all the time?
I had a similar issue, but I was able to get around it.
Try going into Google Voice on the web and hit the "activate voicemail" link. It'll give you a number/code to dial in the dialer on your phone. After I did that, GV on the phone was able to set up voicemail correctly, iirc.

Yup. Had to do the same thing. Worked like a charm though.

Thanks that worked.
Still doesn't work for me. Tried uninstalling and re-installing GV and also using the deactivate/activate link on the GV website and I'm still getting the error. This is frustrating.
Just go in and manually change it yourself in the phone settings, under the forwarding options. There are 4 options, leave the first one disabled (forward all calls). For the other 3, change them all to your Google voice number (for ex., 1-xxx-xxx-xxxx) and you will be good.
Anybody has any idea why auto-configuration in GV does not work?

I'm almost positive it is AT&T wanting you to use their (nonexistant) Visual Voicemail app. My Skyrocket did the same exact thing. International GSII on ICS even worked fine.
I had the same issue. Make sure it says ATT in carrier when you log into google voice. If it doesn't redetect it. Mine still showed Sprint for 48 hours before it detected I was actually on ATT.
Also entered the codes as mentioned on this site:
http://kalsey.com/2010/10/using_google_voice_as_your_voicemail_on_att/
The important part to save you a click through:
"Second, open up your phone’s dialer and dial the following, replacing 1234567890 with your new Google Voice phone number…
*61*1234567890# (then hit send)
*62*1234567890# (then hit send)
*67*1234567890# (then hit send)
You should see a message appear on your phone after each time you press send. This will set up your AT&T account to take all calls when the phone is busy, when you decline a call, or when your phone is turned off or out of range and forward the call to your Google Voice number."
After doing the above I was able to change Carrier in settings to Google Voice without any problem.

You guys are simply amazing. Had this problem which I suspect is because of the SIM change. I had no problems switching from my Captivate to Atrix.
I was flashing a bunch of roms and in the mean time I didn't have sprint voicemail on my phone. Well some people left me a voicemail (I got a text about it), and normally it will filter this text and it will pop up in voicemail.
But I didn't have voicemail loaded, so I just thought I could go back later and get it. But my visual voicemail doesnt show anything. When I call the number, I get a busy signal.
Any ideas?
Hello,
On my S4, I had made a contact called voicemail (which included both voicemail a pause and then my access code. When I'd get a voice mail and see it by swiping from the top of the screen, when I pressed the notification for voicemail, it would then dial my voicemail and access code. I can't seem to get that to work on the G3 so I'm thinking I forgot a step in making it dial voicemail and password.
