I decided to try out the Google Voice integration with Sprint. I used the option to use my Sprint number as the primary and only number. So my sprint number and GV number were the same.
Everything was working good for a few days, when i realized that i really hated the way the Google Voice app handled voicemail. So, i found an apk and titanium backup for Sprints VVM that someone on these forums posted. I installed it, it configured itself, but it wouldnt work (which i was expecting as GV was now handling all my voicemail. i just wanted to try it out). I uninstalled it and thought nothing of it.
About an hour later my primary number stopped working. I couldnt place or receive any calls, and i couldnt txt.
Took about an hour for Sprints tech support to get everything fixed. Super lame.
So, if using your sprint number as your google voice number: DONT MESS WITH SPRINTS VVM! It will messsssssss you up! lol
I had this happen to me BEFORE I started messing with VVM. It's a GV issue altogether and not something VVM does, don't let them tell you any different because it's just not true. I've since completely deintegrated my Sprint number from GV and logged out of the app for good and the problem went away immediately.
I didn't do this,but sprint needs to learn abouts the nexus and gv. My phone completely stopped taking inclmjbg calls yesterday until I unintegrated and just used it as a forwarding phone

I was having serious issues yesterday as well; could not receive calls or texts ("We could not complete your call, please try again.") and received the same thing on outgoing calls. after unintegrating GV would not call my phone to verify the number so I could not reintegrate it, and I still couldn't call anyone. This was happening up until about 3 hours ago, now my calls will go through with my Sprint number but it seems like my texts are still not working...

I deintegrated as well. I really like the idea of GV, and thought alot of the features where super neat. But obviously there is still stuff to work out.
after a day of not being able to make or recieve calls, i've deintegrated it as well. i'm sure i must've did something in the settings for that to happen, but integrated gvoice it just too confusing atm. besides, i like getting texts via stock app, and if that means i have to get dual notifications, then forget it.
but sprint/gvoice integration is still new, so im open to future development.
So it sounds like the problem was more widespread than my. Individual phone. I got errors when calling out and errors if someone tried to call my sprint number, now as a forwarding phone j get dual notifications as well. Anybody know if it is cleared up by now? Voice was why I switched to sprint in part

same thing happened to me last night. all of a sudden couldnt make or receive calls. spent a hour and a half with sprint, couldnt get it working. But when I went to the website to remove google voice integration it said it wasnt. I called Sprint back and sure enough the rep said that it was still there so she removed it and immediately i was able to make and receive calls. so the problem is with the google voice integration.
Anybody get service back without unintegrating

We have 8 lines on our business account from Sprint. Here is what is happening:
When Line 1 calls Line 2, the call goes through, the phone rings, and everything works like normal. When we switch it around and Line 2 calls Line 1, the phone on Line 1 never rings. Line 2 gets Line 1's voicemail. This has been going on since March. It never changes. Line 1 will never ring when Line 2 is calling it. All other phones can call Line 1 and it rings perfectly and acts like normal.
Line 1 and Line 2 are both HTC EVO's with Cyanogenmod 7 on them. They were working perfectly for two months, and then it changed. When the problem first started happening, sometimes instead of getting voicemail when calling Line 1, I would sometimes get a message that said: "This is channel 47 4".
Around the same time when this started happening, it also started with another phone on our plan. Line 3 on our plan cannot receive phone calls from one certain Verizon cell phone number. The Verizon phone is a Samsung Fascinate that is rooted. Line 3 on our plan is a Sprint HTC Hero running Cyanogenmod 7. The same thing happened here. At first the Verizon Phone calling in would here a message that said "This is channel 47 4", but now all they get is voicemail immediately.
All of the phones use Google Voice voicemail, but I tried disabling it and then they just got the Sprint voicemail immediately.
I called sprint about it but they said they need to troubleshoot it in a repair store. We do not have corporate stores in our area, and I don't trust the repair stores that are here. Last time my old Touch Pro was in to them, it came back severely damaged. Also, I don't want to risk losing the root on my phones and having them upgraded to Gingerbread which hasn't been rooted yet.
Has anyone ever heard of an issue like this, or does anyone have any idea what I should do?
Thank YOU!
I did check and make sure that in the contacts the phone was not set to forward the call to voicemail immediately.
I am on AT&T with an HTC Tilt/Kaiser and have the same issue with my step-father who has an EVO. And yet my Mother, who is on the second line on that account with another EVO, can receive them from me. Not just you. Except none of the phones have mods and we don't get the "47 4" thing.
If anyone ever has this problem, the solution for me was to completely wipe the phone, install a cm7 again, and NOT restore any backed up applications.

UPDATED INFORMATION:
I misposted. My problem has not been fixed. All that was solved was that I can now log into my ATT voicemail myself from my own phone - prior to that, by pressing "1" to access my voicemail, I got the message: "This is channel 47-4"
Now though my voicemail seems OK on my end, people calling in still receive the message "This is channel 47-4"
I am in Los Angeles but I have found a newspaper article about a whole community in Norfolk, VA whose phones are supplied by a Time Warner subcontractor, Intrado Communications in Longmont, Colo and the panic it has caused that they were unable to reach Emergency Services on their phones.
(I have not posted enough to post a link. I cannot seem to post even the unlinked URL but here is the article title and newspaper - it was printed in several local newspapers, it's easy to find.)
Phone Service Trouble Remains
Watertown Daily Times
A quote from the article:
"Most of the time, the phone rings busy," Mrs. Michaud said. "Sometimes, it says this is channel 47-4."
Still nowhere can I find anyone who knows what is going on. And back in January, apparently even Time Warner had no idea, they fixed the cable but not the phones.
A NEW TEST: I have just deactivated Google Voice again and tested - my ATT voicemail IS reachable. My problem is gone. Unless I want to forward to Google Voice. I have searched Google and Google Voice Help up and down and have not found a reference to "channel 47-4"
But at this point - in my situation anyway - Google Voice is the culprit. Or possibly the target.
ORIGINAL POST:
I just finished spending 2 hours with ATT in 2 different tech support attempts for this same 47-4 message problem - only mine was slightly different. I fixed the problem but I can't let it go. I am curious how the same recording could be reached across different carriers, ATT and Sprint.
Blow by Blow to maybe help someone figure it out:
I have an unmodded Galaxy S2 SGH-i777
I have been using Google Voice for this and my previous 2 phones all with the same ATT Wireless account.
Today, when people called my number they got the same weird message as everyone - weird for the message and loud background noise.
"This is channel 47-4"
I called my phone from a landline and got the message.
Clicking the hook switch makes the message repeat without hanging up.
(I tried it 4 times)
Google Voice should have intercepted an unanswered call, right?
The first tech support advice:
Reboot the phone, they would send a voicemail reset signal and then I should reset my password.
(I took it upon myself to deactivate the Google Voice account first.)
When I pressed the "1" key to access ATT Voicemail and set the password, I got "Unable to perform this action contact customer service."
I then tried to access my voicemail account online and got ERROR E1018
I called tech support again and they weren't interested in the error code.
They called me back on my landline and asked me to reset my password using "1"
I held the phone up for her to hear. This time when I pressed "1" I immediately got the recording "THIS IS CHANNEL 47-4"
What I found fun is that the message freaked out the tech support. She had never heard anything like it, she said.
Here is the new oddity:
When she came back on the line she was more freaked out! There was no record of any voicemail on my line. Voicemail isn't an "option," she said, it comes with every account. She knew of no type of account without voicemail. Having no voicemail account on my number was impossible, she said.
Regardless, I popped out the battery and restarted while she sent a "reset" signal and everything is now back to normal. I enabled Google Voice and all is as it was before today.
I've searched online and there is a lot of recent 47-4 issues and a lot of good solutions only no one seems to know what the message is or how it got there. I have the added piece of information that somehow my ATT record of any voicemail account was wiped out in the system.
The same message across carriers means what? That it's in the shared data lines? Shared towers?
If someone knows what this message is and who it originates from, I'd like to know. If I find out, I'll come back here and leave an update.
Ok, just got Mango loaded up on the DVP, great so far. I was in the process of setting up the Visual Voicemail to see how it works compared to Magikmail in which I love.
Well there is a problem when trying to setp it up. It states it cant setup my visual voicemail. It says I can call my voicemail and setup the visual voicemail that way. What option do I choose to get Visual Voicemail through my Tmobile voicemail?
Also has anyone else ran into this issue?
Call T-mobile up via 611 or http://my.t-mobile.com and add the visual voice mail feature. It is free
they cant set it up because the dell venue pro isnt in their system to activate the service.
Just tell them its a HTC HD7 and it will work...
i will try this
Visual Voicmail is still not working after adding this feature through the Tmobile website.
Anybody else having this issue?
Yeah, I'm having this issue also. I added it yesterday, so it might take a little while for T-Mobile's servers to register that I have enabled Visual Voicemail. Will update later when I try again later on today.
Usually, one would get a text saying the services are changed, so maybe wait for that also.
Probably takes a while to activate, set it up last night but would not activate on the phone but got a text today and the setting now sticks when enabled on the phone. Havent dont a real test though.
Edit: it works on my DVP.
I was using Magikmail in which I just disabled. Tried to setup visual voicemail once again and it still didnt work. I activated the Visual voicemail with Tmobile yesterday evening it should be all good to go. I have no progress in setting this up
i couldn't get it for my mom's DVP (family account) via the web site. But calling a rep quicky got it on her account and 15min later VM worked on her DVP.
Has anybody with issues with the Visual Voicemail been successful to get it up and running, mines still isnt working im going to give 611 a call again to see if they can work anything on their end.
Could it be that I forced the Mango update.
I set it up on the website a few days back after changing my plan. Got the update notice after plugging in the phone to Zune on Tuesday. VVM was there after updating.
So... not sure what the issue is. Perhaps a hard reset if nothing else. Or, now that you have it set up, revert back to NoDo and re-update.
Tried to enabled it after the Mango update. "Oops!"
Called 611. Tried a few times. "Oops!"
After 23 hours got text saying the change requested was effective. "Oops!"
4 hours after the text... "Oops!"
Reset phone via power button/shut down. "Oops!"
What do you mean by "hard reset"?
T-Mobile DVP...
^^^Same problems here man. called 611 and they are looking further into the issue and should be getting back with me. Never received a text stating anything. The VVM has been activated on T mobiles end but im continuing to get the Oops
Having this problem as well, called 611 on Tuesday after updating to mango, she enabled it for both lines, got the text on one phone, neither work as of Thursday. oops, oops and oops.
Do you have any voicemails? I have 2 saved. I could delete them - I was holding on to them mostly to test the VVM feature... (Of course, maybe whether you have any existing VMs may not affect it starting to work...)
Still havent heard anything back from T mobile
At the risk of stating of the obvious there are 3 things that I noticed that needed to be done to enable visual voice mail:
1) Enable the service on your account at the T-Mobile site. Make sure you select the option to apply the changes "today". You should also get a text on your phone right away saying that changes were made to your account.
2) Reboot the phone. Not sure if this was actually necessary but I couldn't get VVM to work before doing this.
3) Go to the phone icon then go to "call settings" under the sliding menu. Here is a slider to turn on VVM.
After these 3 things I was good to go.
I actually did receive a text stating my data plan have been changed. But those steps were taken and nothing has changed still get the oops
I called 611 several days ago. VVM shows up on the my.t-mobile.com web site as an active service. I rebooted the phone yesterday and just now. Still get "OOPS!" when I try to move the slider over.
What voicemail number shows for you? Mine is 1-805-637-7243.
...continued...
Just deleted saved voicemails and tried again. Still no dice.
I know I saw someone mention this either on here or another forum, but I'll be damned if I can find the solution.
I'm on T-Mobile's 100 minute plan and disabled carrier voicemail long ago. After moving everything over to my Nexus 4 yesterday I've been getting a persistent new voicemail notification. Of course it can't find my mailbox when it calls voicemail; it doesn't exist.
I can't see any way of clearing this. Anyone else run into this?

I had to call my T-Mo Voicemail leave a message, give it about 5 minutes. Hit the icon so it calls the voicemail then delete the one I made. Then switched to Google Voice lol. If you don't know your voicemail number, call your number from your phone. Assuming you didn't change any settings it should take you directly to T-Mo voicemail.

Well that's the rub. I called T-Mobile long ago and had them turn off voicemail altogether. I use Google Voice exclusively.
Edit: I should mention that it did this on both the stock ROM and CM10.1, though on CM it didn't start until after I rebooted the first time.
I had the same problem and I also had this problem with my Galaxy Nexus. The solution I found on both phones was that as soon as I rooted and flashed a new ROM I immediately installed Google Voice after performing the initial setup (before doing anything else). On both phones this prevented that persistent notification from ever returning.
Many others had this problem on the Gnex as well and all agreed that this solution worked.

So once it's there I'm kind of out of luck? Do I have to do a factory wipe and reflash CM10 for a chance at getting rid of it?
Go to your google voice account on a computer and mark EVERY voicemail that is not marked as read, read.
Solves your problem.

I haven't had any GV voicemails at all since powering on the Nexus 4 for the first time, either old ones or new.
I did change the voicemail setting to Google Voice in dialer settings then cleared data on the dialer app. That made it disappear... for now.

I had exactly the same problem after swapping SIM card to my nexus. My voicemail was disabled. Every time I call it I was forced to press * key and enter 10 digit number. I had to call T-Mobile to solve notification icon problem. They set up my voicemail again and left a message. After that I called and listened it, so the problem is gone now. Hope this will help you

Wipe cache and dalvik cache then fix permissions. After rebooting I bet it will be gone.
OP, any luck getting this sorted? I got an N4 for Christmas and I'm seeing the same thing as you.
I'm on the $30 prepaid plan, and had previously disabled my T-Mobile voicemail. Once I got a new micro SIM and popped it in my new phone, I received the persistent voicemail indicator. I called T-Mobile on Monday and all I could get them to do was to "create a report" of my issue - even after I suggested that they re-enable my voicemail to let me leave and clear a message. I'll try calling today to see if I have better luck stumbling across the magical combination of words to get them to do what I want, but figured I'd check in and see what sort of success you may have had.
I have the same issue, I am on Fido (Canada). I have the persistent icon every-time my phone reboots... I do have a voice mail, and I have no messages on it. I even tried calling myself from another phone, leaving a message and using my N4 to delete it, but it still there and persistent. I don't recall having that issue on my previous phone... (Gnexus)
I've also noticed that if gapps aren't flashed, the icon isn't there...the moment I flash google apps...it appears..
Any solution would be highly appreciated...
I've ran into this a few times and it's not always google voice, sometimes it's your carrier voice mail, you can also try setting your phone back to carrier voicemail, calling and leaving a message and then deleting it. It's fixed an issue on my work phone a few times.

Quick follow-up: My second attempt with T-Mobile support was much more successful. Within about ten minutes I had gotten my voicemail turned back on, a test message cleared (along with the notification), and the voicemail service disabled again.
From some reading around the web, it seems that new SIM card activations with T-Mobile default the Message Waiting Indicator (MWI) to On, I guess in an attempt to get you to set up your voicemail service ASAP. They unfortunately didn't have the foresight to automatically disable that if the SIM is activated on an existing line with no voicemail service. Oh well, that was easy enough to fix
I'm topping this thread because it's the first one that popped up in my Google search on how to resolve my issue.
AT&T Galaxy S4
Google Voice voicemail
Just got my phone in and I didn't set up the voicemail properly I guess.
Got a notification of a new voicemail.
The message wouldn't go away.
When I dialed the number it told me to dial, that just went to my Google voicemail which said there were no new voicemails.
I tried a BUNCH of things. Here is what finally worked for me.
1) I went to https://www.google.com/voice
2) I disabled my Google Voice on my phone from that link.
3) Rebooted my phone.
4) Now when I called my voicemail, it went to my AT&T voicemail instead of Google.
5) From there, I was able to delete my voicemails.
6) Then I re-enabled Google Voicemail on my phone from the link above and now all is good again. No more notifications that don't go away.
This thread was a huge help in me troubleshooting the problem.

Do you mean in Settings / Application Data?
I tried that and it did not clear the indicator.
I needed to call T-Mobile, have voicemail turned back on, clear the indicator, and then call back and have them disable my voicemail service again so my calls would be redirected to my GVoice mailbox.
You should cancel it at your mobile operator. I had the same problem

I can't even get past 2 seconds when trying to answer a call. I can make calls with no problem.
I did a factory reset once and that fixed it however i don't want to keep going through that to fix it.
I tried from a land line, when i answer, it ends the call on the phone after 1 second. The land line stays connected with no sound or feedback.
I'm having voice call issues with my sprint s8 as well. It ends the call almost immediately. Can't make or receive any voice calls. Text and data is working fine though.

I dropped sprint a few years ago due to poor coverage, slow lte and dropped calls. I live right between DC and Baltimore and should be in a very very good coverage area but sprint just plain sucks but I didnt have the issue you describe. My calls would drop during almost every call but could go for a few minutes or more before they dropped. I am wondering if maybe your phone isnt provisioned correctly or something. I would be calling sprint and having them work with you on the issue. Good luck I hope you get the problem sorted out!

Yeah sprint isn't always the best for everyone but I've had them for over 15 yrs now with great coverage in my area. I've been holding onto my unlimited legacy plan.
I agree, I think the provisioning might be an issue. I'm planning a call to them this afternoon. I think it started after an update yesterday but not positive.

I don't think it's the coverage, it's like automatically hanging up after i hit answer. If i make a call, it won't hang up during a call. It's really frustrating that phone doesn't work as a phone is intended to work as.
Yes, this is happening to me. It will stay connected about 2 seconds every time. Then drop. I can make calls fine.
I was just starting to investigate. I went to Sprint store and they said check Google Voice integration. I had to leave because I only had a short time, but I am going to check that first.

After factory reset it worked, and that was after google voice was installed. I tried uninstalling google voice and it still does the same thing. Never had any trouble with voice before...so annoying.
Man.... Don't tell me. I just got everything freaking set. And without root.... No Titanium Back-up! ??
okay, i just factory reset it twice, now it won't answer a call at all. I can only make a call.

I think i found the issue. There is a new version of google voice. I was on google voice legacy. I unlinked my phone number with sprint with the legacy page. I linked the new google voice, it seems to be working now.
Fix: Sprint drop calls after two seconds.

jkluczyk, Thanks for posting your fix. It worked for me on my Sprint network phone. Here is how I did it -
- Open Google Voice on your desktop.
- Select Settings - Phone number - Under "Linked numbers" - Unlink your phone number or delete it.
- At top of the page it should say "Try new Google Voice". Select this and go to the new page.
- On the new Google Voice. Repeat steps above and reLink your number again. Should be fixed. Worked for me.
This is the only method that worked for me
Symptom: (All incoming calls hang up right at or just before the 2 second mark). The problem appears to be the association (or lack of) between Sprint and Google Voice.
1st I tried just un-associating/deleting my sprint number with google voice completely and removing my google voice account. This sort of worked, I could answer my phone normally but there was still one big problem. Now I had no voicemail and it would go to busy signal when trying to access it. Also, the phone would ring forever on the callers end if I didn't answer and never go to voicemail. Still no good.
Here's how I fixed it. This method worked for me.
Go to your google voice account - go to legacy mode if you are already in the new version (You must go to the legacy screen to completely remove your account) - go to settings - go to the "phones" tab - deactivate/delete your sprint association and email with your google voice account (In other words, remove everything as if you're starting all over.) You can't do this from the new version, only the legacy version! - give your phone time to update (sometimes up to 15 minutes) - Now setup your Google voice account again but ONLY USE THE LIGHT VERSION and setup voicemail only. This worked for me as my voice mail works fine through google with text and email transcripts and I can actually answer my phone. I did this several times trying the full version vs the light version and every time the full version caused the same issue hanging up with incoming calls, but the light version worked fine.
