I had some crazy stuff happen to my phone with google voice shortly after I got my Incredible. My calls were going to straight to voicemail an nothing I could do would change that. I called verizon, and they had me turn off my phone, and then she activated it on a phone she had there. The phone rang fine for her. When She turned that phone off, and I dialed *228 #1 to reactivate mine it started working again.
There's also a GV number you can dial to activate google voice mail, and to deactivate it you can dial *73
So I guess, I'd try dialing *73 first and if that doesn't fix it, try reprogramming the phone. Lasty try vzw support.

I tried *73.. but since that was being dialed thru Verizon.. it wasn't going anywhere..
but I tried reprogramming the phone by dialling *228 and that seems to have fixed the issue.
thank you very much for your help.

I loved google voicemail, but hated that my phone would ring 6 times before switching over to googles side and the callers would have to wait for 6 more rings to get to my voice mail.
My friends stopped leaving messages and would just hang up.
Was there any remedy for this ?

Google is officially supporting it as a voicemail system now, so they actually have an option you can enable in your preferences if that's all you're using it for. Whenever it forwards from Verizon to your GV number it automatically goes to voicemail instead of ringing some more.
Also, it should be noted that voicemail is on Verizon's side. Whenever you use the Google Voice app and call the number it dials for you, you're actually calling a Verizon number. That number programs where to forward calls if you don't pick up.
Dialing just *73 should disable the custom voicemail number.
Edit: Just to be a bit more specific, I meant the preferences online, not the ones in app. https://www.google.com/voice#phones

Thx I'm going back to gvv
I changed from the stock OS of my HD2 to hyperdroid, but I have two problems.
1) When I miss a call, it is only shown in the history if my phone was on at the time or had reception. Strangely, if someone sends a text to my phone while it is off, I receive it once my phone has been turned on again. Even if it does not shown a missed call under those circumstances, I can still receive voicemails from them.
2) There are no options in the original contacts section to add/remove/important so on. I installed the hotfix from the Hyperdroid yet it still does not work. An app for another contact list works, but the original one does not.
Can anyone please help me with those issues?
Thank you for the time.
#1 is by design. That is how GSM works. Calls you miss when the phone is off or out of coverage area can be notified as SMS alerts, but only if the network provider supports that feature.
I don't use the ROM you have, so can't help on #2...
Swyped from my HTC HD2 running CM7 (Gingerbread 2.3.5)
Same problem
My problem is that I can't receive any calls what so ever.
I have been using this ROM for only 2 days and my call log shows that there has been incoming calls but the phone simply sends them directly to voice-mail.
is the a fix or tweak for this?
Please S.O.S!!!!!!!!
Anyone else notice that outgoing Google Voice calls do not display properly in the call log? They all show as calls to the local Google Voice call routing service. Never had this problem with any other phone. Must be some limitation of the Touch Whiz interface. Anyone have a solution? This sucks.
It's something specific to this phone. I don't think the SII has this problem. Since the SIII is a popular phone hopefully Google sorts this out for the next update. For now I'm just saving the bridge number too since it's unique to the outgoing number.
It makes me super sad. I want to cry and shave my head.

Google Voice will properly list calls in the call log if you use the AOKP rom for the att SGS 3 by Task650 & Ktoonesz. not sure if this is a GVoice or a Samsung TW thing, but it's disappointing for me. i use my GV number all the time... hope a fix is coming soon!
I noticed as well. It doesn't really bother me because the call connects properly and shows up correctly in the call log. My droid incredible running CM7 did the same thing so I'm use to it.

so your verizon sgs 3 shows the number dialed in your call log vs. the Google Voice bridge number?
Yes. It shows the correct number in my call log. The only time I see the other number is in the voice notification as you call.

Just thought i'd post an inquiry after having it drive me nuts now. I'll try to describe it but the subject should be descriptive enough!
Basically what happens, you go to dial a number (or dial from contacts) and the phone calls out then hangs up (hangup tone) then quickly dials your intended number. When you look at the call log you see 2 calls, one being 0min 0sec then the next one right after with the amount of time you spent on said call.
I saw this in another thread and decided to make a thread about the topic instead of clouding up that one:

I have directdial feature on my SIM which allows me to dial international numbers directly. My AT&T MVNO includes international calls - H2O Wireless but you normally needs a access number, their new SIMs got direct dialling now and I think that's what's causing the double dial thing.
When i dial an international number it sends me to the access number then my phone pops up a toast that says "Sending" which then sends the actual number i'm calling. It then connects after some information about the call. I think it does this for all calls on the N4 but then drops the first call to the access number and dials the number straight to the local number instead.
What's weird however is i don't have that issue with my SGS2 and the NEW SIM cards so it's something with the N4.

Seems to be going on there too with the double dialling issue but obviously with a different provider.
same here
You're absolutely right, I had noticed the same issue but never really thought of checking the call log. After reading your post I checked my call log and every single outgoing call had been logged twice. The first had a zero second duration and the other had the actual call duration.
Solavei
Theres a couple of use having this issue on the Solavei network! i think it might be a bug with 4.2 and mvno's. we tried reporting this to our carrier but they have no idea what can be causing this! I have replaced sim card, phone, and deleted the google voice app and none have solve this issue! i think we have to contact google and let them know about this issue.
I've had a similar issue. I'll type in the number hit send, then after i put the phone to my ear I hear it dial the number and I get nothing until I end the call. In the call log, it shows 0min 0sec but it's not duplicated. Strange thing is that it only happens when I dial a toll free 877 number. It's never happened on local or long distance call or on 866 numbers. Haven't tried an 800 number yet.
about the double dial... i noticed a different issue few days ago...
i dont get a double dial for call log... but what happens is
after i finish a call... the phone automatically dials the second last person from the call log...and disconnects the call automatically...
first i got scared of whats happening and but call never went through... it got disconnected after a while
I have the exact same problem as shotta35. I'm in Canada, so on a different network most likely (rogers).
I've tried the factory reset, didn't fix anything. Tried switching to EDGE mode, doesn't do anything. enabled/disabled bluetooth (in case it was some kind of bluetooth dialing thing). Incoming calls don't seem affected in any way.
However, this hasn't happened every time to me. there were 3 or 4 calls where it did work the first time, just after a reboot typically.
Anyways, still looking into it and hoping someone can find the solution because this is annoying!
Any updates on this? Quick question for the ones with the problem. Is your Sim cut or micro? Is it rooted?

My Sim is not cut, and yes I am rooted on stock ROM!
Ok I'm on solavei with a cut Sim card. Rooted using mmuzy ROM. So the problem could be root. I asked about the Sim because last week I was on straight talk with micro Sim and had no problems. What service are you on?

I doubt root would be the cause of this but I guess anything is possible. I had the same carrier with an older SIM (manually cut) when I first got my N4 then upgraded to the microSIM. With the original SIM I didn't have the double dial thing but I rooted around the same time I switched SIMs so I don't remember when it started.
I have this too. If you use Google voice, even as VM only as I do, it double dials on outbound calls. Only seems to happen with solavei if you have voice installed on N4. Doesn't happen with any other phones with solavei AFAIK.
I just don't care I'm so pleased w solavei otherwise. I tried porting my phone # to Google voice previously, and I hated how text messages would not be left alone with the stock app. Then I tried T-Mobile prepaid and I found out it doesn't let you use Google voice as VM. So given that I have Google voice voicemail and SMS working properly finally at least, this bothers me very little.
I found that if you return a call directly from Google voice voicemail it only dials once..

I have Solavei and have the exact same issue.
double dialing fixed
I had the same issue, and I finally figured it out. I`m on Rogers Canada, so I switched my sim with my wife`s (on Rogers as well) and my Nexus 4 had to restart. When booted up the problem was gone. Next day I went to a Rogers store and bought a new sim, activated it and I`ve been using it for 24 hrs now and the problem is completely gone.
Another issue that got fixed was using the 2 second pause or hard wait while dialing. I guess when the phone was double dialing it dropped the pause/wait in the second dial. but now it works perfectly.
By the way new sim is LTE enabled, and I have LTE enabled on the phone as well and it's working fine.

Here is my issue...
I'm on Tmobile's $30/mo prepaid plan. I want to use google voice to ring my nexus as I've been using a GV number for the last year or so. So in other words, I don't want to use my carrier number, I want my GV number to ring the phone. I had succeeded in doing this with my GS3 and Galaxy Nexus before without any issues. When I call my GV number from another phone, it won't ring my nexus, and eventually goes to GV voicemail.
What makes it stranger is that I was able to get it to ring once or twice by calling my GV #, but trying the call again would result in the Nexus not ringing anymore.
I have tried doing the **004*XXXXXXXXXXX# codes a dozen times getting a message like "Call forwarding Connection problem or invalid MMI code."
I've tried deleting the phone from my computer on the GV page and adding it back again. No success there.
I'm short on ideas. Any help would be much appreciated.

I'm not interested in using VOIP. I want to use the cellular network because the call quality is better than any VOIP solution. I just want my GV number to be in front of my tmobile number.
If I understand correctly you want people to call your GV number, and GV to forward/ call your device on the device's number?
If so, all you should have to do is log into GV on the computer, put your device's number into the settings, verify you have the phone, and it should be set up.
I have it set up that way with T-Mobile prepaid, and never had any issues. If you are doing those things and it is still not working, please elaborate more.

I'm having a similar issue, I have a Nexus 4, I'm on the T-Mobile $30 plan, I go to verify my T-Mobile # on GV and after I hit "Connect" it says 'Verifying your phone...' for 30 seconds or so, then says "We could not verify your phone. Please try again.".
I've tried calling from at least a dozen computers, nothing, my phone never rings, no matter how much signal I have or what, it's INFURIATING.
I just got setup on this same tmo plan, and I'm having similar issues with GV. I managed to get GV to forward incoming calls to my tmo phone number, but If I call out, it still uses my tmo number regardless of whether I have GV set to make all calls. The GV voice mail also is screwy. If someone calls my phone and I let it ring and don't pick up, it will go to GV, but if I tell the phone to ignore the call, it goes to tmo voice mail. This 30$ plan is just what I've been looking for but honestly its really aggravating that it all worked flawless on Straightalk with ATT sim. I don't want to have to use GrooveIP or some other app to call constantly through GV, when it worked properly on ATT's network. Tmo, definitely has to work to do in this area.
Here's how I got it to work.
Went to google voice and put in my work deskphone number.
Verified it, then boom, I have a verified number.
Used that to set up a google voice number that's 3 numbers off from my old one (Same area code, first three different, last 4 the same) and paid $4.99 for GrooVe IP, logged into my Google Voice account and now I can make calls to and from my google voice number. Be sure to download an app called Contact Cleanup or something like that, I think GrooVe IP needs you to have your phone numbers in international format to dial. Also, my only real complaint about this is occasionally someone will call my old number because my new one wont ring, but signging out and back into GrooVe IP seems to fix this.
Every few days I try to verify my cell number with no luck, I was reading and the best I can come up with is it's either a fault, or something on purpose, on T-Mobile's end.
And FYI my phone shows up with my GV number on caller ID, and text messages, and all that jazz, I sent out a few dozen text messages using GV online to everyone in my contacts list know to only use my old number for emergencies.
I haven't using a single minute on my T-Mobile plan since I did this like 2 weeks ago, I love it.
Two things to keep in mind.
1) "Forward calls to" phone numbers can only be used in one GV account at a time. Otherwise you could create 100 Gmail/GV accounts and forward them to one line. I had this issue trying to add my home phone to both my GV and my spouse's GV account. Many free SIP DID's have this as a known issue. Google can remove the number, but it's a painful process.
2) The Nexus 4 has a ARP issue on WiFi. Ping your phone LAN IP after you lock the screen to see what I mean. This has caused some issues with some VOIP apps.

Are you using the same gmail on your phone as the account you originally created the GV number on?
I was having this problem and I transferred the # to my new gmail, problem solved.
