I really like the TMo Visual Voicemail and have tried to install. Every time it falils. Anyone know when this will be a working app.
Don't install from the market. It will fail because Visual Voicemail is already built in to the MT4G.
Go to the dialer, and on the bottom bar, there's a voicemail section. If you already have visual voicemail as a service, then you've got it.

have you set up your voicemail yet...i had this problem too, and it was driving me f'n crazy...til i listened to my voicemail the first and set up it...after that, i had my visual voicemail going
Did you go to the Settings under Visual Voicemail and enable it?
I had to call tmo customer service, since for some reason my visual voicemail wasn't checked as a service.
Go to t-mo website and make sure you have visual voicemail as a service listed under your account first.
You need to activate it on your phone. If that doesn't work. Make sure the market version is not installed, go to settings/applications/all, scroll down to find the visual voicemail app, select it then select delete data. That should clear things up but you'll probably need to activate it again in your phone dialer.
What happens? does it give you an error or no vmx listed in there?
Also you may want to try google voice, its free and it has some options that T-mobile VVM does not have.
Mine always tells me my phone is associated with another account. I bought it from the 800 number brand new.

You have to call TMOBILE and have it activated... it would not WORK on my mt4g either until I called them and had it activated on my phone.... I didnt keep it long though I went BACK to google voice, which in my opinion is clearly superior...
I was having the same problem you are describing, visual voicemail saying it was assoicated with another account. After 20 min with T-Mobile tech support their solution was to send me another MT4G. I have a bad feeling thats not going to fix it though.

Please post questions in Q&A section.
Received my "new" phone today. Visual voicemail is still broken, leading me to believe it is something on T-Mobiles end. Hoping someone else chimes in with the same problem and maybe a fix.

ditto - similar/same issue here since basically day one ... seems like when i cycle to Edge/2g network off of 3G/HSPA (i force it to Edge only when I'm at home to save battery since I have fast WiFi) - the visual voicemail more/less stops functioning ... a couple things that fix it (temporarily until the next time I go to Edge and/or restart) is to 1) press the menu button while in visual voicemail and go into settings and uncheck enable visual voicemail and then check it again ... after this is done - I often have to hit the menu button again and press 'sync' ... as long as you have a data connection this works much of the time. def seems to work better on 3G/HSPA than 2G/edge ... if that fails I .. 2) just restart the device ... after I do this - this is when I often see the 'this voicemail was associated with another account' or some crap message when I first click on visual voicemail .. but after re-enabling and syncing again - I'm always good to go..
a serious pain in the @$$ but luckily I've trained most everyone in my life on a diet of mostly email and text so voicemails to me are kind of becoming obsolete ... or I'd probably be more pissed..
IMHO, you should ditch the lousy VVM built in and give YouMail a try. It's free and has so many options. Like the ability to choose a different message based on who is calling, block certain callers etc...
Plus, YouMail has a great free app in the Market.
Mine wouldn't notify me when i had a new voicemail. I just use google voice now and no issues.
Same problem here, I keep getting the message "associated with other account". I already have VM activated, and already set it up on my phone. It's fairly random, as my VM will work normally for x number of days. Then all of a sudden I get that message.
VVM issues
I got my phone when it first came out and could not get vvm to work; I called tech support and they said at first it was on their end. A month went by and I called back and they said things were ok on their end, I had added VVM to my account, and then they (2 different people) tried to get me to download from the market even tho the app is built into the mt4g.
I had enabled vvm when I first got the phone and never worked. So this time, I went into settings (open dialer, choose vvm tab, hit menu button) and disabled it, which then did not allow me to get back into settings. So, from home screen, hit menu, settings, manage applications and found visual voicemail and I believe hit button to clear cache and then rebooted my phone. I went back to vvm under dialer, checked the settings and it has worked ever since....hope this may help someone.

are you sure it was clear cache? because my cache shows 0.00B and as such can't clear anything (button is greyed out) ... are you sure it's not clear DATA?
i've heard of people having problems clearing the data on certain programs and having to hard/factory reset which i would REALLY hate to do at this point just to 'try' something out ..... ?
Thanks for this tip. YouMail is awesome!

First, I would like to say "THANKS" to the community for all their hard work here. Because of everybody's hard work. I was able to go from stock non root 2.1 eclair. To using superclean 2.6 w/voodoo kernel with tether fix. and add the Nitrodark theme v1.1. There are a lot of good write ups that help out us noobs a lot. Im so amazed by what my phone has now evolved in too. I cant stop customizing it now lol. So I just want to give everybody a real big "THANKS"
Secondly i have a issue that i cant seam to find a fix for. I have looked hard to find a fix but i haven't found one for the fascinate yet. The problem is with the dialer or more specify the lack of the Verizon voice mail app (blue tape looking icon). From my understanding. It was replaced by Google voice service. That's why the voice mail icon in lower left corner of the dialer goes to Google voice and not to Verizon voice. Does anybody have a fix or the files i need to replace Google voice with Verizon voice mail.
Also, i already looked in room manager and only found verizon visual voice mail and not the reg voice mail.
In the latest update for NitroDark (v2.0) There is a specific download for the Verizon voicemail dialer.
Awesome. Ty, ive been waiting for 2.0 but now theres also a verizon voicemail fix dl there too. Double bonus! Thanks again.
You can also just hold down the 1 key to get you my carrier voice mail. Pretty simple workaround
I had trouble at first getting my sprint visual voicemail to work at first when using the blazing rom hybrid. Here's what I did and I have tested this on a few different sense 3.5 Roms with success..
1st you need to do a titanium back up of a working sprint visual voicemail apk. If u don't have titanium back up u can find it on the market. NOTE U MUST BE ROOTED!!! To use this app.
Next download your sense 3,5 rom. Set it up per the developers specs. And download titianium backup if it is not installed in the rom.
The third step is to restore the titanium back up of the sprint visual voicemail apk. MAKE SURE TO INSTALL APP AND DATA.
The last step is what makes it all work. Open the visual voicemail app and hit the menu button and select compose. It will pull up a screen. Fill in the To: space with. [email protected] . Now record a quick fake message. Like testing testing 123 at least five seconds long. Then hit send. Now u should get a message to your mms app that it was good. Now have someone call and leave a message to verify the voicemail is working. U will still get the 9066 in your messages however this can be blocked by using a text messaging app such as handcent.
Hope this helps and good luck!!!!
Thank you to all the developers working hard to give us sweet Rome to use!!!!
I just downloaded Google Voice and tied my number into there and I get all me text a vm through there. I like it. The suggested way works, but quick fix is google voice.
Yea, google voice is the quick fix. Just be sure to set up so voice goes straight thru
to your phone. I was sending all my phone calls to voice , becuse I was not quick enough to press 1 to answer.
I recently rooted with kingo and installed safestrap and flashed jellybeans rom for my Verizon note 3. My visual voicemail app is gone and was wondering if anyone has a link for it? I have been searching endlessly and cant find it. this rom is super sweet but I do enjoy my visual voicemail app which was said to not be removed. thanks for any help guys. (no I didn't back up my stock rom so cant get it from there)
if you have any question about the rom I flashed let me know. customization to the max!!!
I don't even have the capibilities to get Visual Voice mail.
Why would that even be possible? I have a smart phone, I want a program to manage my voice mails, not a phone system that's 100 years old.
Is there a way to get free VVM? do i just call in and enable it?
Also, idk if its just me, but I don't get actual notifications.
Facebook doesnt even tell me" You have a new notification" it just has the badge.
For EVEYR OTHER app I have no matter what it is, it just says that: "You have a new Message, Unread email, Notification" but not the content of the notification.
What am I missing here?
I though Android was better than iOS
If your gonna start saying stuff implying that ios is better without first figuring out how to work your phone then gtho and buy an iSheep

Try Youmail or Google Voice?

I tried it on MJ7 and it didn't function. It did install correctly, though (Hmmm. I didn't have TiBu for this device; crap I can't remember if I was able to DL it from the market or if I grabbed the .apk from a different device)
The pre-installed (Touchwiz?) Voicemail app seems to work exactly the same way - voice messages are locally cached onto your phone. (No evidence of a 3G/4G call in progress when you "listen to a voicemail".)
Hmmm. I think I am being billed by Big Red a couple bux/mo for the "privilege" of using that app. Mebbe I should call them.
beanstown106 SHOULD HAVE PROVISIONED FOR THIS!
Yeah, so now that a service I pay for is now "eliminated from the OS", and there seems to be no .apk that will be available...
what do I do?
All I want is to be able to use my VISUAL VOICEMAIL. I don't need all the other extraneous crap that comes along with Google Voice.
HELP!!!

The pre-installed Voicemail app works identically, does it not? (I'm still on MJ7, so ymmv ?)
It looks different (clunkier), but the basic functionality is there.

lol There is no "extraneous crap" that comes along with Google voice... I've literally been using it ONLY for visual voice mail for like 4 years now, and I couldn't live without it (it's very easy to disable using it for calls or sms).
I don't know how Verizon's VVM works (it's probably crap), but the best thing about GV is that it's very neatly integrated into android. When I miss a call and get a VM, I tap on the notification and the VM plays. Easy peasy. It's also accessible directly from the call log.
Not only that, you can set it to have Google email you a transcription of every VM. It's not always 100% accurate, but if I'm in a meeting or busy, I can get the general idea of what the message is about without even putting the phone to my ear. It's indispensable and FREE. Stop being stubborn... do yourself a favor and get it.
Google voice?

Can someone comment on whether visual voicemail works outside of the T-Mobile Visual Voicemail app IF I DISABLE the T-Mobile Visual Voicemail app (using package disabler)?
I noticed the Samsung phone app has visual voicemail, is it going to work if I disable the Tmo app?
Thanks!
I figured it out after about an hour of testing.
The stock Samsung phone app's Visual Voicemail works fine, so it's perfectly safe to delete Tmo's voicemail app. BUT BUT BUT BUT BUT you have to first open Tmo's app, allow everything, and get it all set up (e.g. get past everything so that you're able to listen to an actual voicemail). Probably load one voicemail just to be safe. Then it's OK to delete the app and just rely on the Visual Voicemail and notification functionality of Samsung's stock phone app.
Turns out that's wrong and it's still a cluster****. It worked, but if you restart the phone it's broken again. If anyone figures it out please leave a reply as this thread will likely be viewed by people over the next year or so.
The Samsung ROM has visual voicemail built in, and it's specifically Tmo's visual voicemail functionality on this Tmo variant model. So it should do visual voicemail fine without the branded T-Mobile Visual Voicemail app which is so non-necessary that it even lets you uninstall it.
only v voice mail that i have is t mobile v voice mail. i don't have any other additional apps for v voice mail. Why do you want to remove t mobile version?
I'm on TMobile and I got TMobile's variant of the S8 Plus. When I press the VM button in the dialer, it just calls the VM number. What does your Samsung ROM VVM look like? Are you on TMobile's variant?
Is it possible to use the native Samsung dialer visual voicemail or not? I take it not possible like it is on ATT?
