[Solved] Anyone gotten a voicemail off their phone? - Hero CDMA General

I've found the voice recorder files, and I've been able to get them off the phone, but using Astro I can't seem to find any place obvious where my voicemails (using sprint visual voicemail) are.
I have some voicemails that I would really like to be able to save off the phone.
Any ideas?

I don't have any so I can't check but I believe that smithmicro makes our visual voicemail.
Check: /data/data/com.smithmicro.DM/
But I have no clue if it's actually even stored on the phone. It might not be. Could test that theory by getting a voicemail then restoring the phone and setting up voicemail again and seeing if it's still there. If not then check out the .log and .xml files in that folder and see if they point to a location.
Or the other option would be to tar up your whole /data/ directory, get a new voicemail, tar it up again and then run a diff between the two which might reveal it.

why not just click menu while in voice mail and forward a copy to your email address.

Well there ya go. lol

Wow, I'm feeling very dumb right now. (that worked great)
I've even used that feature before, but I thought you could only send it to another users voicemail on the sprint network. I never even thought to put an email address in there.
Wow, from post to 3 replies, including answer.... in 25 minutes!
You all are so awesome. I can't thank you enough for taking time to answer questions like these.
Thanks again!

Your voicemails are in:
/data/data/com.coremobility.app.vnotes/files

Andy,

@buck are you sure of this? I tried to look for one just a minute ago and didn't see anything in here. Are they an odd extension?

They are on mine at least. They should be named VN-1.AMR, VN-2.AMR, etc. I was never able to find a Linux codec to play them, but my computer does at least recognize them as audio files, and the number/timestamps correspond with my voicemails.

It's as safe as anything else you do on the internet. Like I said, I'm not logging any credential info....it just gets passed to to google with SSL.
I noticed a bug, when you manualy dial from the dial pad you can't dial the number 0, when you dial 0 it comes up as a 9

Fixed and re-posted the new cab.
Nice stuff.
My specs are:
Omnia running 6.5 - WQVGA screen. I know some of these problems might be related to that.
First, I love the fact that you now have that SMS history. It kicks serious ass - I can use my keyboard with xt9 in it no problem or shapewriter - so great work.
However, I do have a problem when it comes to loading my contacts... for some reason nothing shows up. Before I was able to. So, now if I need to send an SMS I have to go into voicemail find the contact and then sms there.
How is the notification system going?
Is there a way to integrate the phone contacts with one touch - or visa versa?
Anyhow, Kudos... great work.
Looking forward to future releases.
Relay address?
I would like to use this with my T-Mobile ToGo prepaid service. However, their data service is restricted to certain sites. There is a workaround but I need the IP address of your relay in order to make the mod on my phone. Oh, and I need to be able to change the URL of the relay to something with tmobile in the URL. Basically what I would do is create a dyndns entry of tmobile.dyndns.org (or something) and then link that to your relay IP address.
Is there a way to change the relay URL in the application and can I get the IP address of your relay? I think it may work.
Thanks

You know what, I actually have a problem similar that I just noticed. It only loads mine up to the P's. Before it was a data source, and now it's enumerated. I'll work on that....don't know what it going on just yet.

Not really. What I had before, and what I hope to have again in a little bit is as close as I could get it. I did improve how the contacts worked, but it looks like I broke it too. Hopefully, I'll have the fix out later tonight.

The notification system would make this awesome. I thought that you might have been working on one because I think you said that the other thread. Anyhow, it would be great if a notification system could be implemented somehow.
And I guess as far as features go - I know that you were not paying too much attention to aesthetics, but perhaps you could have a button on the dialpad for the SMS history, contact list, or favorites, or something... that way the dialer would just be the main dialer I always use. This all piggy backing on the hopes that you get the contact list to work.
Anyhow, heres to future builds

I was just messing with you. The notification is already there, I just commented out the messagebox that tells you there's a new message. I did that because I'm trying to figure out how to send the event to the phone instead of a message box, because the MB won't pop up if the app is running in the backround.

if you don't put in any numbers and hit either the dial button or the sms button, the former takes you to your contacts(and I think I know what's wrong with it, fixing it now), and the latter takes you to SMS history.

Not a problem anymore. Fixed the contacts and a couple of other things and posted a new cab.
Great progress on this app (and in such a short time!). Finally just got the latest version installed and am playing around with it.
The buttons appear to be too big - I would guess I can see about a quarter of the icon I'm supposed to be able to see for ech of the numbers and the dial and SMS buttons down below.
When I click over to SMS history I get a "could not retrieve messages." error.
Dialing gets me a "web exception" error.
Im gonna keep playing with it though.
whoops. new build. should work now.
fixed the smsmessage history "error parsing message xml" error. new build posted. also fixed a small contacts error.
Is there a way to add an auto update function?
The screen does not fit properly in SE Xperia X1a. Can you make a version for WVGA?

waiting on qvga. would be happy to test.

[Android] SMS from Anonymous sender (AIRAVE PROBLEM)

hey guys, with every build of android i've tried with the vogue, sometimes an sms comes in with Anonymous as the sender's name/number. There is no sender info there at all, so I just have to guess who sent it. Has anyone else encountered this problem? Thanks so much in advance
EDIT: We(Sjs01) have narrowed it down and discovered that it is a problem when using an Airave. If we turn off the airave or leave it's coverage messages come in with the contact name like normal. Great catch sjs01! So, we are hoping a dev could look at this to see if there may be a fix for it. Thanks!

EDIT: It has become more and more frequent. About 1 in every 15 texts actually display the sender's name/number. Hmmmmmm...
What is your carrier? I have mine on sprint with 1.5 standard system from the vogue-android proj page.
I seem to have hit or miss text message receiving and havent pinpointed the issue with sending SMS to a "CONTACTS" cell number. Basically I cant reply to a text or 'send' to a contact's SMS/mobile number, They never get it. If i send it using raw digits they do.
Was kind of curious about your experience there.

I'm on sprint, "dzo booting" the donut build here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591104 But I've had this problem with every build I try, even when running from the SD. And regarding your issue, I can send to a contact name and they receive it every time, but it's when they reply to me, it comes in as "Anonymous" and I cant reply to it. Also, I just did a test, and even when the number isn't in my contacts, it comes up as Anonymous.

How do you have the numbers saved in your contact list? I had issues before with sending SMS and found that I needed to remove the leading +1 from all the numbers I had stored. One I had them all setup as (area-code) XXX-XXXX then my SMS was working great again.

Yeah, I heard about that, so I tried it, but none of the numbers have the 1 at the beginning. I deleted the contact, re-entered them, everything. I had to flash back to WM (poo) because it got to the point that every SMS that I received was from "Anonymous." Ugh I can't be the only person that's ever had this problem can I? lol
i've read just about every thread on android, and don't recall seeing this problem. i used to have a problem with missing incoming sms (people would send to me, and I would never receive them), but it seems to have fixed itself - coincidentally around the time I stopped using compcache, don't know if it had anything to do with it.
sorry, i've got nothing for you. i'm sure you have already tried deleting all files from your SD card and putting fresh stuff.
I am also having this problem, the text almost never comes in the persons name, I have tried the fixes in this thread with no success.

Now, how to fix it. Since nobody seems to even know about this problem, let alone how to fix it, I'm just going to ask some questions.
What COULD be causing it. It can't be the system, because it happens with every build I try.

Interesting issue,
If you guys could do this that would be great.
connect your phone to your linux (or windows if you're not using the latest nand boot files)
at shell do ./adb logcat -b radio > radiolog.txt
have someone send you a txt who regularly comes up as unknown
ctrl c in your terminal window to end the logcat, and post the radiolog.txt,
We can look over your log and see what may be causing it, if it's RIL related you will have to wait for vilord to impliment a needed change, however because so many people aren't having the issue it may take a while.
Hope this helps
I'm using the same version (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591104), booting from nand, and having this exact issue.
I'd try to use adb to see the log but there is an issue using windows adb with nand flashed android.
Im having trouble trying to create the logcat, but I've made an interesting discovery. I tried out HeroZenMagic--102309--system.sqsh rom the host site where they are keeping the old hero builds, and with that build pretty much every sms came through with the contact name. That got me thinking, all of the older builds seem to work just fine, its just the newer ones. And the problem with that is, they are much less advanced and more sluggish. Maybe this information can help? The build can be downloaded here: http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=aa29b5ef55091cf1c79b87b207592a1c3574eefa2a593379ce018c8114394287 Try it out and see if your results are the same, and if so, maybe we can figure something out!

I'm not actually booting from nand, I'm just have been using haret to boot up android. I was also having some trouble creating a logcat but I think I managed to get one that I think has what you need. If something is wrong with it let me know and I'll try to get a better one. I would try to make it write a radiolog.txt but it wouldn't work. So I ended up just copying what was in cmd and pasting it into a notepad and just saving it.

I'll have to try this and let you know, but I can't tonight. When I used to use the older builds normally my texts would come in fine, but texts from other sprint customers would almost always be anonymous, but now it's with almost everyone.

I think I may have figured out the issue (at least my issue), Leukay, do you by chance have an Airwave? I am on Sprint and had realized that, for the most part, whenever I would go out of my house the texts would start coming in with the actual name/number, but when I would go back into my house my texts started coming from "Anonymous" again. So tonight I went down and unplugged my Airwave, sure enough the texts started coming in as the actual name and number again. So if you do have an Airwave you should probably try to unplug it and see if the texts start coming from the right numbers.

As a matter of fact, I do have an Airave. I try that today and post later today! thanks for the tip
EDIT: That completely gets rid of the problem! The only problem is I need the airave to make calls in my house. Hopefully the devs can figure out why the airave produces this problem
I have an Airwave too. I guess that's definitely the problem. Can't disconnect it though cause I won't have any service in my house.

No Sounds and Contacts Bug?

Okay so I searched far and wide on these forums for 3+ days now with not answer. Maybe I'm just blind or not typing in the correct search terms but here is my problem...
I have a Sprint HTC Hero rooted flashed bla bla bla the works... anyways the alarm clock sounds are missing and the alarm clock will not work because of this. Does anybody have JUST the ORIGINAL alarm clock files?
Secondly, whenever I goto call someone or someone calls in it shows up on my phone as the same contact all the time calling in/out. It is the last contact on my list.
Any help with these issues would be great!
Anybody that can answer my question would be greatly appreciated... I am pulling my hair out because of this. It is totally messing up my schedule as well.......

In regards to the "original alarm clock files", I think you might want to try installing the alarm .apk file again on your phone.
Have you tried reflashing the ROM? If not, try that -- first without wiping the the phone, then doing so if nothing changes.
If that doesn't work, I'd advice you Sprint RUU your phone, TEST the Stock ROM to see that you do hear the alarm sounds and that your calling problem is fixed. If this happens to be the case, then there was probably a glitch in the ROM -- happens sometimes. Reroot, install recovery, and flash ROM of your choice once, test again and report back.
Hope that helps. I've attached the file below.
To install:
1. Download file -- DO NOT EXTRACT IT
2. Place it into your AndroidSDK\tools folder
3. Run this command in Command Prompt, make sure you cd into your tools folder first though.
Code:
adb push WorldClock.apk /system/app/
adb shell reboot
Thank you for the help pseudoremora I finally was able to get my alarm clock sounds back however my contacts issue is still an issue.... I've tried re-flashing and doing the Sprint RUU like you said but my contacts still jacks up. It will always be the last person on my contacts list that shows up whenever someone is calling me regard less if it is that person or not. It confuses the hell out of me and I can't ignore phone calls properly now! lol Is there anything else that you could think of that might be effecting this? I've tried downloading just the contacts file as well and re-installing that on my phone but it does the same stupid thing.

No problem for the help. With this contacts problem -- I would double check your contacts and verify that the numbers match with the correct people and also check your Gmail account contacts as well -- Gmail might be merging or somehow doing something weird and causing this problem, since your Gmail account is tied to your phone. That would be pretty much my last guess.

Yes I've already gone through and checked the numbers of each contact to make sure nothing was matching up. I also disabled Gmail contacts so that I only have the ones that I hand jammed in. I am at wits end on this one.. I've flashed the Sprint RUU like 50 times now with no such luck (1.56.651.2)

Hm... I don't know then. Have you talked with Sprint at all? Have you checked out some other forums to see if this problem has come up?
If not, try that as well - cause I'm out of solutions.
Check AndroidCentral, Modaco's website, anything dealing with Android phones. Sorry I can't be more of a help.

Visual voice mail receives its updates via sms, if the app is installed it will intercept these and you will never see them ...
If you have VVM setup and no longer have the app on the phone due to a custom rom then you will see these messages ...
Easiest thing to do is grab the VVM cab and re-install it ...

If you have VVM setup and no longer have the app on the phone due to a custom rom then you will see these messages ...
Easiest thing to do is grab the VVM cab and re-install it ...

thats certainly very interesting. thank you for that however, wouldnt i need to have gotten a voicemail in order for this situation to occur, if we follow your logic?
i have not hasd a voicemail in quite a few days now. iis this a recurring ping via sms or must it be triggered by an actual voicemail?
thanks a lot,
jason

Yes I do believe it is sort of a "Keep Alive" sort of thing and it may also be a trigger to tell the VVM app to check , or for it to send any changes you have made to the settings ...
i set up vvm, still getting this annoying text. surely i am not the only person to ever get this and surely it must be something?
anyone?

i have gotten these too, ever since i switched to custom roms..... but i've learned to just live with it.... still hoping for a solution though
Weird, I got them Until I setup VVM app, then they went away ...
i get the same thing, almost on a daily basis! i've set up vvm but it still sends me these txt... and for some reason i also get previous txts from my gf with the sim icon next to it as well.
I get them every now and then. I have the stock ROM and did not set up VVM. I learned to ignore them. I don't even delete them anymore.

Cyanogen 9 and Sprint Visual Voice mail cooperation

I decided to start this thread to try and help people like me who want sprint's visual voice mail working with Cyanogen 9 on their Epic 4G. Seeing how this is an issue ignored by developers, and shunned upon google voice fans.
Please do not say use google voice as this is no the discussion for this thread.
Here's what I have gotten with my attempts, anyone else feel free to contribute and maybe we can come up with a solution.
I tried using a backup restored from EL30 into CM9 through Titanium Backup, no message updates, and crashing every time I try to send a message to [email protected].
I grabbed the Sprint VVM apk from the latest Epic 4G Touch leak that is ICS in hopes of having more luck, but here were the results:
Loads up OK,
Goes through account verification on every app startup
No new Voice Mails showing (tested by me calling my phone from land line)
Still getting 9016 text message.
I can record and compile the activation message OK, but as of 30 minutes, it's still sitting in outbox after multiple attempts to resend. No luck.
Does anyone know if there's dependencies the VVM apk relies on for sprint to phone communications?
What luck has others taken and what are your results?
If I can get this issue, and possibly find a way to get the PRL updates back, then ICS will be golden and good for everyday use for me (Main thing is the VVM)

I installed the same vvm. Worked with no problems on the first try and haven't had a problem yet. Only been a short time, but had the GF call a few times and it works every time.
Worked for me too. Still get the 9016 text but got my voicemail in 5 seconds.

Successes
So when you two installed it, it worked flawlessly (minus the text issue) out of the gate?
As I sit now, I still have not received my voice mail and I'm now wondering what is different between my install and yours.
I currently get an account verification error with Visual Voice Mail version T5.2.1.0 taken from a copy of epic 4G Touch FC07.
I installed this copy by transferring the APK to my SDCard, then using ES File Explorer to install.
I just tried resetting the data through the applications management through settings, it loaded up the default two messages (about and welcome). Then gives me the account verification error prompt, then the customize mailbox prompt, but no message downloading. What ideas do you two have that could help.
did you try uninstalling and reinstalling?
Uhhh, I might be missing something but to quote the CM9 team from their Facebook page. "Sprint Visual Voicemail now works on CM9, meaning we now have three options for visual voicemail on Epic! Read the Customization Guide for CWM5 flashable .zip and setup instructions if you want to use it. Be aware that there are currently glitches.

Apology maybe? I dunno Google Voice is amazing!

Based on your suggestion, I just did, still no effect though.
When you go to Personalize voicemail in voicemail settings, does it do anything for you? For me it doesn't do anything.
As much as I like VVM it gives me trouble on CM7 and 9. An outgoing VM gets stuck and its the activation VM to get the services started. As a solution I just downloaded youmail from the market and it does the job. Its got a few advertisements but at least I dont miss important messages. Hope this helps!
Solved
OK, after seeing the posting about the facebook link, I did check it out and tried it. That did seem to solved the solution at least temporarily. There is some rendering issues, really minor, but after sending me a voice message, I did receive the rest of my voice mails (and the texts with them).
To answer one of my original questions, there does appear to be a dependency somewhere that's been missing. I opened the zip file to find a second file in it called 80-sprint-vvm.sh which I assume is a form of work around script.
Me not having any programming language knowledge couldn't say the details of the sh file, but I'm sure more knowledgeable people can decipher it.
I will see if I can come up with a full solution that can be more permanent, but for now this upgrades Cyanogen 9 to daily driver status. Another note, I noticed my topic quickly jumped to the top of google's search results for Cyanogen 9 Visual Voice Mail, so maybe there was some good out of this.

If you haven't tried the CWM zip file mentioned at the facebook link, give it a shot. It worked for me at least. Install it, then compose a voice mail to yourself, and the rest followed along.
Gah.
I flashed, and when I rebooted phone, it automatically provisioned the app before i even opened it.
I cant' get the VMs to appear there, only can get to them through dialer.
What is this moron (me) doing wrong? I'm missing a step somewhere...

You are not the only one. Edfunkycold is having the same problem as well as a few others. I already had the voicemail semi-working and provisioned on my phone before installing the E4GT version. And that worked immediately after installing.

Oh, jeez, ok. I'd say good, but it's not good, lol!
I had this issue with SRF 1.2, but I did something to fix it. Don't remember at all what that something is.
Or, maybe edfunkyfresh and I need new names!!!!

I posted on several threads to see if anyone has any ideas how to get this working. Mine provisioned, set all up I get the text message but the app doesn't download voicemails and I don't even get the voicemail notification icon. I know the VM is there because of the 9016 text but I still have to dial 1 on the dialer to manually get to my voicemails. Anyone out there throw some ideas out, I just can't stand when something is supposed to work and doesn't.

Man this sucks I hope you guys get it figured out.. I use PF Voicemail because it has a web portal and email missed call notification (even if your phone is dead).. But the app is kinda ugly.. Good luck
I hate to be that guy but this belongs in general as nothing was developed.

I agree it belongs in general, but disagree because it has developed an issue for me as to why it doesn't work for me. . Also just realized forum time posting is off by an hour

it may developing an issue but its not an actual development project if you can understand what he & I are meaning by it. this is more of a general topic.
