Hi Everyone,
I have a sprint touch pro and I am using Google voice as my voice mail provider. Since I no longer use sprint as the voice mail provider I don't get the nice voice mail notification on my phone. Is there a way to hack the phone so that when someone leaves me a voice mail on Google voice I would get the notification on my phone? I hope I explained this correctly and any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jerry
No...the voicemail notification comes from the network. Google Voice wouldn't have the ability to send that signal to your phone. The best you can do is have them send you a text message notifying you of new voicemail. Unless someone can write some sort of intermediary driver to intercept that type of formatted text (similar to what other apps do like nuegpssecurity) and notify you otherwise.

how is google voice for voicemail? havent really looked into what google voice is actually
Can't you have the voicemail transcriptions sent to an email address? Why not just set up an email account on your phone to receive them?
There is an option on google voice for it to send a message to your cellphone when you have a voicemail.
It's under:
Settings
General>Notifications
If you just have GV transcribe your VM to texts and then SMS it to your mobile phone, you'll probably never have listen to a voice message again.That's what I did and I don't believe that I have called in for my VM messages once since I did this many months ago.
Galaxy S 3 on Verizon: I've noticed something that is annoying and I can't figure out what the problem is. When my phone notifies me that I have a voice mail, I tap on the notice in the status bar and it dials and Verizon comes on and says I've reached something not accessible. But if I go into my Contacts where my voice mail number is stored it dials it correctly. I would like to be able to use the status bar to quickly dial Verizon voice mail, but I can't figure out why it isn't dialing the number I have in my Contacts. Anyone have any suggestions?
Very excited about the new Hangouts and Google Voice integration.
I use my Google Voice number as my primary number for calls and text.
1) Now that I have the new Hangouts app, does the Google Voice app provide any use?
2) At home I have poor signal, which is a perfect environment to receive calls to my GVoice number in the Hangouts app. Unfortunately when I check the "Incoming phone calls" option in Hangouts and when I receive calls things get confusing. The Hangouts dialer rings first, which I presume is the call being routed over data to my phone. Then the normal phone dialer rings, which I presume is the call being routed over the cell signal. This normal dialer shows up on top of the Hangouts one. If I want to answer the Hangouts one b/c I know my data signal is more reliable than cellular signal, then I have to slide the normal dialer to "hangup" and then answer the Hangouts one. Is there a way to disable the normal cellular dialer besides putting my phone in airplane mode when I'm home.
Thanks.
Hello, I have a voicemail notification on my gear and I don't have any voice mails. I tried to disconnect the Bluetooth but my watch freezes when trying to call voicemail . I then have to hold the home key and restart.. When I'm connected to my device it just calls my voicemail and tells me I have no messages but the notification is still there. Anybody know what's going on

That's slightly worrying! Did you cancel it off by dialing voicemail on the phone first? Or did you just call voicemail from the Gear when the notification came through?
I am thinking that because you cannot officially dismiss anything on the phone from the Gear, by dialing voicemail from the Gear you are effectively doing that, (as the dismissal actually then comes from the carrier to the phone) . I believe this will cause the notification to stick on the Gear.

Still an issue?
I am having this same issue. Anyone come up with a solution yet? I rather not reset my watch if I could avoid it.
Hold down the voicemail notification and the window will get smaller with a red minus sign in the upper right hand corner. touch the red sign to dismiss it.
I have a visual voice mail notification that won't go away? Has anyone figured out how to make it go away?

I had this same issue. The native voicemail notification could not be dismissed. In Gear Manager I had selected both the native voice mail and visual voice mail notifications. I'm thinking there must be a conflict because now that I have only the visual voice mail notification selected I am able to dismiss it. I had to factory reset my Gear to get the native notification to go away. No issues since.

That's way too convoluted. The easiest way to dismiss it is to long press and hold the Gear S voice mail notification screen until it shrinks to display a screen edit mode. Tap the '-' icon to delete the voice mail notification screen.
Now, go back and uncheck the voice mail notification in Gear Manager will make sure it never happens again.
The way this is managed on T-Mobile sucks. I have my phone number, my gear s number, and a Google voice number. No matter which number the voicemail belongs to, it shows the voicemail icon on the watch. When you call your voicemail on the watch, if it is connected to you phone, it will call the phones voicemail. Unless you dial the watch number and go into the voicemail, you are probably going to always call the phones voicemail.
That has nothing to do with T-Mobile. If you are BT connected to the phone, the watch's own cell radio is auto-disabled and when you make a call, it will only call from the phone. You have to disconnect from BT and make it remotely connected in order to call for watch's voice mail. But then, you can't call for your phone's voice mail. That's why I suggest you disable voice mail notification from the phone.
Also, the icons are slightly different between voicemail left for the phone and for the watch.

Unable to clear VM notification from watch
The voicemail notification is for my watch as it has the watch icon on it.
But I am unable to dismiss it. No matter for how long I press it, the option to delete the screen doesn't come.
It is a used watch and I am unable to dial the voicemail from that number. Any workaround?
Please help
Is there a way to show missed calls notifications (flashing led) when using the Google Phone (nonnexus) app?
I've checked all the settings I could find but don't know what to do next.
Thanks
Anyone?
