I have searched the forums and couldn't find an answer to this so please forgive if a repeat. I just started using WiFi on my EVO 3D and I noticed that although I can still download email from my private email addresses I cannot send them. If I switch back to 3g I can send just fine. My Yahoo and Exchange accounts are fine. I tried going through the account set up and it says my outgoing message server isn't responding. Not sure what to try. My husband has the EVO 4G and this isn't a problem for him.
In a separate issue everytime I boot up my phone I get an error saying that MessagesCS is having an issue and allows me to report to HTC and then I have to force close. HTC couldn't tell me how to fix it. Their suggestiong was to reset the device which I will only do as a last ditch effort.
If you know anything on either of these issues, please respond.

First thing which comes to mind, for sending of "private email" makes me think the outgoing mail server might some type of security in place to block it from being a spam relay. Common forms of security for private outgoing email servers are: blocking certain ip addresses including potentially public hotspots, or might require a certain type of authentication, etc.
Without more detail around what type of "private email" you're referring to, it is hard to specifically give advise on what type of approach to take. If the "private email" is through a cable/dsl carrier, they (or a google search) might be able to shed more light on the type of security they have in place on their outgoing mail server.
I know from personal experience, using Gmail thru the Gmail app, incoming and outgoing should work just fine over WiFi, 3G and 4G without having to change any settings in the app.

Could you screenshot this issue? I've never heard of it and I find it interesting it has a report to HTC feature along with a Force Close. Unfortunately, it doesn't surprise me HTC wasn't able to give you a reasonable solution.
If you wanted to get more technical, the best troubleshooting information you could provide for this issue would be a copy of your logcat surrounding when the FC occurs.
There are some apps on the android market under a search for "logcat" which can help pull this debug log from the phone. I personally use adb (android debug bridge) which is provided in the android sdk to access the logcat and troubleshoot software issues on the phone.
Hope some of that helps or at least points in a productive direction!
Hi all.
So I have this great SI4G from AT&T that I rooted and unlocked to my network, Rogers. However I've noticed that the 3 conditional call forwarding options are set with (I assume) the previous owner's number. If I try to disable them, or change the number I get an "unsupported" or "unexpected answer" error message.
I can still make and receive calls, but if I miss them, they will not go to my voicemail. Rogers does not support those options so I really don't know how to kill them... Any ideas?
I've seen this around and about the forums, but no solution really...
Thanks!
This is not meant to bump the topic, but I just flashed a new ROM and I still get those settings. This would mean it's stuck in the SIM card... which doesn't make any sense to me.
Anyone?
call rogers tech support, they should be able to help. My best guess.
*sigh* yeah thanks chrisrotolo, I forget to do that too often... and guess what? The forward thingy was a bug actually; they reset my VM and now it works fine. Turns out all the numbers that appeared are the numbers that the network puts in to compensate for these unsupported options.
+1 for me on the duh scale...
I'm coming from the sensation.. and so far, the Amaze has been great. The speeds are great and the build quality is second to none..
The only issues that are actually bugging me enough to mention have to do with two google apps. First, w/ google voice.. has anyone been able to successfully configure it to work as the default voice mail service? I can't seem to get it to switch over from the default phone voice mail service... any ideas?
Also, with google talk, I can't get the video chats to work. When I connect with a contact, it does the ringing thing and then goes to a black screen and people say they cannot see me. Again, any help?
Thanks in advance.
I don't use talk, but voice works fine for me. The auto setup won't work, but your call forwarding should already be set up as that is network specific on T-Mobile.
Could you specify what exactly google voice is not doing? "Not working" is pretty broad.
I am having the same problem. Seems to work for a while and then goes back to tmobiles VM. I recently manually forwarded the calls so I'll do some testing hopefully it will stick. I called tmobile andbthey said it was forwarded to my gv voicemail but calls were still sometimes going to tmobiles

True. So to be more specific, under the call settings, when I try to switch the "voicemail service" setting from "my carrier" to "google voice," I get an error message that says...
"Failed to retrieve and save current
forwarding number settings.
Do you want to switch to the new
provider anyway?"
Then when I select yes, it then says...
"Forwarding number change
unsuccessful.
Please contact your carrier if this
problem persists."
Has anyone else experienced this? This is the first device among g1, mytouch4g, mytouch4g slide, and sensation that was done this.
Thanks.

Me too. But my settings were maintained from my previous device.
Perhaps try going to a different device, go back to carrier settings, go back to Amaze then try changing your settings and see if that works. I've been meaning to give it a try but haven't had the time.

I had it all set up with my last Android device.
I upgraded to Amaze.
I couldn't use the voicemail provider because I had errors but my voicemail was still setup with GV.
Basically the only thing that the 'switch voice mail provider' does is change the call forwarding on your device. The error you're getting, I got as well, but my call forwarding settings were set up before I switched to my amaze. You have a few options.
The first is to go into your Google voice account on the web, and go into settings and then click Voice settings. you'll see your devices and next to them there's a link to activate. It will give you the codes to dial manually based on your carrier to set up call forwarding.
And as a last resort, if you have T-Mobile you can always call customer care and they can change your conditional call forwarding settings so that when the call meets a condition (no answer, out of area, busy) that it will forward to VM. I'd assume other carriers have similar abilities, but none that I can speak with any experience.
Thanks for all the help, everyone. I think I got it figured out.
Now how about the Google talk video chat issues.. anyone else having issues with it?
Google Talk video chat not working for me either. Pretty annoying after paying a lot of money for this phone.
I had to sign out of Google voice on my old device first. Then setup Google voice on the amaze, and this got rid of the error for me.

same issue
Signing out of voice on my old device won't work becase it was stolen. Are there any other work arounds?
Same here gchat is not working for me. Its sucks
Google video chat is like face time for tmobile it won't allow you to see anything unless your over WiFi

I've been working at getting the voicemail for my first Android device, the SGH-i777, switched to GVoice for a bit now and I can't seem to get it working.
During the setup process [account selection, etc.] it goes to setup the voicemail and I get this error that reads:
"Error
Forwarding number changed failed"
So I found another route via the web interface with the string of numbers that reads: *004*googlenumber#.
Upon entering that in the dialer, I get:
"Call forwarding
Connection problem or invalid
MMI code
conditionally for All Basic Services"
Then I found a lead, on disabling all the settings under "Settings -> Call -> Call forwarding -> Voice Call". That gives me two errors:
"Unable to deactivate call diverting for unanswered calls. Unsupported by operator"
&
"Unexpected response from network."
Online, the web interface does show:
"Deactivate Google voicemail on this phone"
This is occurs when the device is stock and rooted, and running a new ROM. I've also tried deleting and re-adding my phone's number to my list of phones and reinstalling the GVoice app. [NOTE: It's stock and rooted right now though]
Ideas?
Check if the call can go into the voicemail message system first. If not, I will call ATT to reset the condition forwarding.
I do have a real AT&T voicemail setup and I can call it and leave a message [from another phone of course].
As for the condition forwarding, where should I take that? Tech Support via customer care? I did have to get on with tech support after they didn't switch my voicemail over from the iPhone's to a "standard" voicemail service.

Squid,
I am trying to help you here but I may have misunderstood some things that you said. Anyways, I had gVoice forwarding my voice mail just fine - actually, against my will because I wanted to stay with ATT voice and only use gVoice for text messages. Thus, if you go into settings>call>call forwarding - what does it say there? List your google number or does it list your ATT voice number? In my case it listed my google voice phone number and not my carrier number. I changed that back to my carrier, but maybe you go the opposite route. Sorry if I missed your point.

When I go "Settings -> Call -> Call Forwarding" there's another option in there with "Voice Call". There's then 4 lines, "Always Forward", "Forward When Busy", "Forward When Unanswered", "Forward When Unreachable". All of those [EXCEPT "Always Forward"] have text that reads "Forwarding to [presumably the AT&T voicemail number]".
I couldn't disable it manually, but I see where your going with it. Sadly, I cannot change any of the settings in there. Refer to the OP when I mention the lead on "disabling" the settings.

ok. Have you tried to uninstall gvoice, reboot, and re-install? Probably did, just saying.

Yes I have. I've tried a bunch of things.
But amazingly, I get to close this thread now! I called up AT&T and asked about conditional call forwarding and the guy walked me through a bunch of stuff. What ended up being the issue was the number set for the 'conditionals' in call forwarding and the "carrier number" for the voicemail [just below the radio button to select Google Voice] were different by one digit. Changing the carrier number to match the conditionals let the whole operation happen smoothly.
So, thanks to the two of you who responded!

Glad it works for you! Just for my information, the "conditional" is in which menu - call forwarding? I can't find a "conditional" option. I am sure this will come up again sometimes, so I try to fully grasp it. Thanks man!
I don't understand. I've had this same problem since I got my new phone, the SGH-i727 Skyrocket. My number in the carrier setting exactly matches the number for the "conditionals"... So what gives? I'm rooted and running a custom ROM, but the issue was present before I ever rooted, when I was stock.
I had some issues setting mine up, I am also rooted. Have you tried looking at voice.google.com -> Settings -> Phones -> Mobile and seeing if its checked or even there?
Also I reinstalled all the google apps so that might have also helped.
I had a similar problem. I'm guessing you have the Google voice app installed? I would try to reset to defaults the dialer info.
Try this
1. Remove Google app.
2. Clear dialer and dialer storage cache
3. When you go to dialer, the settings should be reset. Configure it as if you have no Google voice.
4. Install Google voice, but make sure you have both WiFi internet and cell phone reception.
5. Hopefully it succeeded, regardless go to the dialer --> Preference --> voice-mail handler for me its either Google voice, or voice mail, or none(dial voice number)
Like wise if you have the number is correct on the Google voice website and you have configured the phone with the app try entering this code. Remember the number is your Google voice mail.
Remove the dashes, and the X's correspond to the Google number, these are to be entered on the standard dialer. I do recommend this be your last step

not trying to revive a dead thread, but I was going at this all night and nothing worked, (new gs3 ATT)
have used gv for everything for a long time now and nothing has worked with this phone.
Went through and tried all the stuff above, and finally I tried putting in the mmi code in the dialer as *004*(area code and number)# and it went like normal, like a regular nexus phone.
This is without the "1" before the are code.
It went through fine and changed all the forwarding numbers in the forwarding menu, and set GV as voicemail.
The reason is that inside the phone- settings- voicemail-setup, you get what looks like a GB screen with your google voice number without the +1 infront of it, and no way to change it I don't think.
this is what the guy above was taking about I think with the att person on the phone. I hope this helps someone, I could have used it yesterday

Not sure if you're trying to be a smartass or not, but....either way this is the i777 forum. Post in the forum relative to your device.
why are you guys so touchy about specific forums? Looking for help from wherever it comes from is a good thing.
That little clue about numbers matching would have helped me yesterday, regardless of what phone I was using. ANd it will help someone in the future.
If it was an htc forum I might have said something different, but I still would have said something.
Telling someone to gtf out of your forum for no good reason is just silly.
Everyone is here to help. That's all there is. If no one needed help, there wouldn't be an XDA.
but ya, I'll stay out of your guy's forum. not that I post alot or anything.
Don't choke on your lollypop
And here I thought I was being nice. I don't remember telling anyone to gtfo....I simply said to post in your phones forum. Well good luck. Happy flashing.
All I said was that this isn't the S3 section. Was that so wrong? Many things are device dependent. So many things can't be given support for unless you have our device.

I introduced my mom to google voice, short story, she didnt like it. I logged in via my pc, and disabled her sprint number through settings. Now when i call her all i get is a busy signal, im sure if anyone tries to call her theyll get a busy signal. She can make calls, just not receive them. Pardon my french, but what kind of bull**** is this? Does anyone know how to fix this?

this isnt a google voice problem and did you "disable" it or "unintegrate" it?
Step 1 - Set your mom's voicemail back to Carrier (If Sprint, the code is her 10 digit phone number).
Step 2 - Go to Settings -> Update profile and allow it to reload her profile.
Step 3 - Restart her phone.
If this fails, you should call *2 and request that a reset be sent to the phone.
I went from a 3.5 rom to a 3.0 because sprint wanted me to access the "system update" screen. When i first booted, before i added a google account, i was able to call her. Added her google account, then i couldnt call her. Seems like a google problem to me. What im thinking of doing is taking her blackberry to sprint and having the numbers put into a dif google account.
Call Sprint to reprovision your phone.

I would try first what this member is suggesting, there are codes availabe to disable GV voice mail, I believe is *72 or something, you can go to the GV help in the website for more info.
Now, if after unlinking the account to GV you still get the same reaction then go to sprint for help.
Question does your mother and you have different carries, e.g.: Sprint & Verizon?
