I'm loving my Vibrant on AT&T. My only problem is that voicemail doesn't work. It hasn't worked since early September when I got the phone. I've been too busy with school to deal with the issue. Also, most people just leave a text or wait until I call them back later. But I definitely need voicemail for work.
I followed step 3 here and got the confirmation, but it still doesn't work. Step 2 doesn't apply because I don't see that option, even in the stock web browser on GV's mobile site. I downloaded the official app and opened it too (read somewhere that it needs to be opened at least once).
I think the problem originates in VM under Settings (system settings). I can change the preferred voicemail to GV, but I can't change the number underneath it; it's grayed out and I can't select the phonebook icon next to it either. Does anyone know how to fix this? Anyone on AT&T and got it working on their Vibrant?
I'm using Nero v1 with the stock kernel if it matters.
Most importantly, this is NOT a thread for you to berate me and the other AT&T users about why we should have gotten a Captivate instead. Make your own thread for that, because I really need some advice on this matter. There are a LOT of reasons why I got the Vibrant instead, not the least of which are: still has 1900 HSDPA, better accessories since it's basically the I9000, can use $10 data plan and AT&T can't do anything about it, and it's cheaper unlocked. Oh, and the better community
Yes, I did when I had my Aria, and it worked as it was supposed to back then.
Dunno if they changed anything, but Google Voice didn't have any issues back then...
When setting up GV on my Vibrant on T-Mobile, the voicemail number is greyed out and it doesn't allow to change. I just backed into GV app, it wouldn't go past that part of the setup, but my voicemail is GV now. hope this helps.

Well, could you check your settings and verify that you're situation differs from mine?
Might have something to do with the SIM card too. I think AT&T sets a VM number on the SIM card and I need to get a phone that can change that number on the SIM card.
EDIT: lol, everyone in this thread has so much Vibrant hate in their sigs. I like my Vibrant (more functionality than my old BlackBerry, although not nearly as stable/streamlined). Wish GPS worked like it should and the default file system format were more efficient. And that Samsung weren't so damned neglectful of the customer. That's pretty much it.
Did you activate GV voicemail under setting in the browser...if yes then it should say.."DEACTIVATE GOOGLE VOICEMAIL ON THIS PHONE"...does it say that in ur google voice setting...Under "PHONES TAB"??? if yes then ur google voice is setup for that phone...

...and now I feel dumb.
It actually was activated, but I think the problem was that I hadn't included the country code and gave a 10-digit number rather than 11-digits.
I deactivated it and followed the on-screen instructions (call '##004#' on the phone to erase the settings) and instead of just '*004*xxx-xxx-xxxx#', used the exact number they provided, which included the country code (i.e. '1-xxx-xxx-xxxx').
Thanks! Hope this helps anyone how searches for this problem.

Hi
I recently installed [AOKP-B37][27/05]Resurrection Remix ics v2.0[4.0.4] on my i9100, Battery life and speed are very nice but I found out a problem,
When i am on the conference bridge of my work, we need to dial an 7 digit access code for bridge details. SO I found out that it seems every number I tap in, it says: incorrect number. And I know that the number is correct, because when I dial it with my regular phone it works.
ANybody had this dialer problem also and how to resolve it?
Thx
Kevin
anyone?
Can someone perhaps point me to a new phone.apk that will work on an ICS for Galaxy S2?
Hi, I've got exactly the same problem. I'm in NL and I often use conference bridges from KPN and Microsoft. Both give me the same problem "Invalid acces code". Using another phone works as a charm. I'm using Stock Cyanogenmod 9 latest nigthly and the LPW baseband.
Sometimes i reboot and then it seems to work ... very strange.
If someone knows how to solve, please let me know
Exactly the same problem...
I am facing the exact problem... if some one knows the answer, kindly help. In fact I am planning to buy a new cheap descent phone to address this. Your solution will save me frm managing 2 phones

My real problem for past 1 week is to use what key words to search this problem... I got the clue from Kevain's post (Thanks ) and found the solution:
1. Either turn off speaker phone while dialing conference bridge - worked for me
2. Turn off the Dial pad touch tone (Settings -> Sounds) - worked for me
Reference:
I could not post the reference URL as I am new here, any way google for this "Galaxy Nexus/ICS Dialer and entering of codes - Google mobile help"
Waw, I'm going to try that out, I indeed found out that sometimes the problem is not there, but I never linked it to the speaker phone ...
Good news in any case that there is a workaround!
Thanks a lot for your reply
So I hope there isn't already a ton of threads for this. I look around and found nothing, anyways I have a Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant rooted to ICS passion 13.1 and it uses the 3.1.10_ICS_KissYum_yum_good #1 Kernel. I rooted this phone from Froyo 2.2 down to Eclir then to CM7 and then ICS.
Anyways I think that is enough info but the issue I have is I cannot send or receive pictures via text. I used to be able to and I know the plan for Tmo supports it but even if I try to send one to myself all it does is say 'sending message'. I never get one in my inbox and it never gives the time of when it was delivered, or sent out. When someone else sends one to me, it shows the size of the file with a little button that says Download, next to it. Even if i turn wifi on and connect to my router then hit 'download' it doesn't do anything. I don't have the Data plan but I don't think that would cause the issue would it?
I wanted to know if I am the only one having this issue and if I am not smart enough to see the issue it if it is just a bug in general. I recently figured out how to take screen shots so I can provide those to help my vague description.
I will work on getting those. I would like to have this fixed if I can in case my family sends me pictures.
Thanks.
To send and recieve MMS you have to turn on data transfer.
Mms will not work over wifi. It needs the carrier data accessible

So i looked and i guess there was a thread about an SMS error describing my issue. And the person just replaced his SIM card and it worked. I guess if it is cheap/free i will try that.
Hello, I've got a quick question to ask on behalf of a friend. I recently setup her verizon note 2 for ATT service via NET10 but the problem is when I call her from lets say my phone number (111)111-1111 it comes in as +11 1 111 11 11.
I've doubled checked the assisted dialing settings and their setup as they should, I've even tried the phone.apk from the ATT NOTE 2, along with telephony.apk files... all with no result. If anyone knows a solution please do feel free to post it as I'm not very smart with this type of issues when it comes to android but I'm starting to suspect its because this phone with a sim card isn't meant to be used locally but over seas.

I have the same setup and same problem. I've looked for 3 months and couldn't find a fix. And as of 2 days ago, i'm not longer able to recieve mms. I can send just fine but incoming keeps failing to download. I've tried several apn's and nothing seems to work. it's strange because it's been working fine past few months. Other than that, Net10 is great on this phone as long as you don't have to call CS for anything.

Also having this problem only if I return a call from a previous incoming call it fails because of the "+" prefix.

mine does the sane thing. so I have to either go into contacts or manually put the number. checked all my settings to make sure international calling wasn't causing the problem. I have no idea what's causing this.
I did find an apn that fixed my mms issue though.

Anyone able to resolve this issue yet? I am in the same boat and have to manually enter the number to dial back

You can solve the MMS issue by getting another messaging APP like TEXTRA and adding the MMS APN setting in it. It will work fine after that.

I fixed it by flashing an att note 2 ROM. I moved on from the note 2 since though.

I have the same problem, if anyone figures this out please tell us
Hi good people of XDA, Iam facing a serious issue in the Contacts app of my new Google Pixel 6.
When I call somebody and they answer their phone, the call shows as "Private number" in the Recents tab.
If they do not answer, then the contact name is shown normally, as it should.
Take a look at the screenshot here: https://postimg.cc/jL1yT1NX
All items shown as "Private" are calls that I made and they answered.
I've searched online, but i didn't find anything related to this issue. Am i he only one who is facing it?
Any insights could help a lot.

Looks like your carrier is blocking caller ID on outgoing calls or you somehow enabled it on your own. I know with Verizon I can block my number on all calls or on a case by case basis.

Hi bobby, thanks for the reply.
Caller ID is not blocked. The person that receives the call is seeing my number.

Oh I get it now. That's an odd one, I can't seem to find a setting where that would change things.
Maybe an app you have is messing things up. Have you tried making a call while in safe mode?

Explain safe mode please.
When you are on the the Emergency, Lockdown, Power Off... Etc screen, long press on Power Off. It will give you an option to reboot into Safe Mode.
Safe mode disables all of the apps you installed so you can see if it's an app causing the issue.
Just reboot again to get out of safe mode.
Go to settings > apps > all apps, tap on the 3 dots (upper right) and 'Show system' apps. Then try clearing cache and data for:
- dialer (phone app)
- phone storage
- contacts app
- contacts storage
Then reboot.
Not sure if that will help, but does not do any harm, it will resync all your contacs.
Hi all,
Thank you for your replies. I tried both suggestions.
I rebooted in safe mode and tried calling my wife.
The problem persisted.
I tried clearing data and cache for the apps suggested and rebooting the phone.
The problem persisted.
The strange thing while I am calling the phone of the contact is shown in the dialer. As soon as the person I am calling answers the phone their name is replaced and the dialer app shows "Private number" instead.
I am really confused!

Post it on Reddit r/GooglePixel sub. This can't be unique. I'm thinking carrier related but just a shot in the dark at this point.

I'm intrigued. Which carrier? Do you have wifi calling you can try out?
Maybe something in permissions manager?
Hello! We have the same problem. On my wife's phone (Pixel 6), the phone writes private number for outgoing calls. There is no problem with incoming calls. Like Gonik, I tried everything, but nothing helped.
We live in Hungary and our mobile service provider is Telekom.
Carrier: Cablenet
Wifi calling: not supported
My next step is to try a sim card from a different carrier.

Yes, it would be nice to fix it because the error is pretty frustrating. And on top of that, she got the phone from me as a gift.
Omg, I am not alone. So I bought unlocked phone in USA, and I am using it in Serbia (Europe) on mts network. ChrYslerHUN is in neighboring Hungary, so it could be related to usa/europe differences and European carriers.
But still, I have never seen anything like that, and it is quite frustrating. What does outgoing calls have to do with carriers. Your phone. should know which numbers you dialed, right.

I'm having the exact same issue. Not only me, my wife also has a Pixel 6 and is experiencing the same problem. I've searched in Google but only found a couple of posts in Reddit and this one. Has anyone found a solution for this? It's kind of annoying. I'm from Spain.
Happy New Year to Everyone!
In the meantime, I installed another dialer application that can also record calls, so the problem is partially resolved, as it shows the called party properly during recordings. Regardless, it would even be nice to have an official fix for the bug.
The dialer application name is: ACR Phone
ACR Phone - Apps on Google Play
Privacy respecting phone dialer app with SIP and call recording support
