Why can't GV verify my N4 phone #? I have text blocking on my at&t #. Is that why? I accidentally deleted GV. It worked fine before.

I don't think it has to do anything with text support. I used it for a long time with no text on my phone. Go to settings > apps > Google voice > clear data/cache.

Using google voice to text has proven to be a problem. The tab was never activated and does not have a phone number associated with it so I cant associate the tab with my google voice number.

Go to IPKall and get a free #. Look at the VoIP call set up for Sprint in Dev forum. Once you have your own number that will associate with GV, it should work. Voice work (calling back) so I assume text should to.
I've done this just fine.i bought both my tabs outright from both sprint and at&t. Use sip droid with voice with out EVER having a number assigned to the tab.
Read what is stated above cause I did.

Hey guys, I'm trying to get some support on setting up voicemail on the Nexus 4 for T-Mobile. I've been doing a couple of hours of research and haven't run across anything substantial. If anyone can help me that would be awesome!
Also note: I also tried downloading T-Mobile's voicemail app and it wouldn't set up properly. The app would say it couldn't setup properly at the time.

Never tried T Mobile Voice mail. I just have everything forwarded over to my Google Voice which provides Voice mail. That's always an alternative if you can't get the T Mobile one working.

Where are you?
Why would you not just use Google voice?

How do I forward my regular voicemails over to Google Voice?

Change the voice mail to Google Voice. Install the app and go through the installation procedure and have voice mail go from "My Carrier" to "Google Voice"

Did you hold down 1 in the dial pad? It should take you directly to your voicemail or have you configure it. It worked that way for me when I was on contract and still works the same using prepaid.

Yup... I don't know why, but conditional call forwarding is not supported on any of the prepaid plans.

I sure did. It then says, "You've reached the voicemail system. If you have a mailbox on this system, press star...". I proceeded with star and entered my phone number and it says it's "invalid". Lost in terms of why it's asking that. I'm used to the general - setup your mailbox prompt. Some reason, it doesn't exist here.
T-Mobile visual voicemail app works for me. If you're on WiFi, turn it OFF during the initialization. Once you're all setup, you'll be good to go.

I didn't have any problems with my voicemail. I've had T-Mobile for a while and all I did was get a new sim card and had it activated and my voicemail was working with no problems at all with my Nexus. Also I found this from T-Mobile support...
"To access the voicemail main menu, follow these steps:
Note: Make sure you are not roaming when attempting to set up voicemail for the first time.
1.Dial 123 or hold down the 1 key
2.Press Send.
3.Enter the last 4 digits of your mobile number as your voicemail password.
4.Follow the tutorial to set up your voicemail password and greeting.
Note:
•If you decline to set up the voicemail password and/or greeting, the tutorial plays each time until you set up both the password and greeting. Therefore, it is optimal to activate both features during initial setup."
Also if that doesn't work try calling your cell number from your land line and hit * when you get your voicemail if it lets you.
Are calls to T-Mobile voicemail count toward 100 minutes($30 plan) limit?

I appreciate your help! I definitely thought the same. After contacting T-MO, they said that the feature has been turned off. I have no clue how this has happened when the only change has been me ordering a micro-sim and activating it.. Weird! But all is well..
Again, I truly appreciate your guy's help! You are awesome..
I just switch from ATT to T-Mobile, on ATT I was using Google Voice for visual voicemail but know that I'm on T-Mobile the voicemail are not showing up... What I need to do to make it work again? I still have the same number... Thanks in advance!

Are you on a prepaid T-Mobile account? If so, it won't work.

Wait. So you are using tmobile's service and the notification isn't showing up, right?
I want to get T-Mobile voicemail using Google Voice like on ATT... I have the off contract deal but like I said wifey has the GS4 and has visual voicemail... Is there something I need to change?

Try to run the configuration again and see if it sets up correctly. Sometimes it doesn't do right and you must run it again.
If you ported your number, you may need to refresh things on Google and your phone.
On a PC, go to voice.google.com > settings > Mobile > Edit > and "Carrier: check operator"
Then show advanced settings and under Forwarding options, deactivate, then reactivate this.
Next, on your phone, go to Settings > Apps > Google Voice > Clear Data
Then setup Google Voice app from scratch.
If you still have issues, you may need to delete your mobile phone from GV website, then re-add it from scratch.
I can't seem to figure out how to make calls from my voice number and not my T-Mobile sim's number. I'm on stock rooted atm. Thanks

install the google voice app, then set it up to use your google voice number when maling calls via your default dialer.
I have installed the Google voice app and and I'm using the stock dialer... Gvoice is using the number i want and I'm texting from that... I just don't see where to set it up to make calls from that number ... It was ported from a Sprint account, and on the actual google voice account page it has a sprint logo on it...anything special I need to do?

from sprint i have no idea. but i have it set to ask me which number to use every time before i call. that option comes up when you first install google voice, as youre setting it up.
I can't help you with Sprint Google Voice integration. With regular Google Voice you just set it up in google.com/voice, in the Calls tab of Settings.
Then make calls using the Google Voice app. Or you can use GrooveIP or Talkatone.

Have you tried the settings in GVoice app? Do you see "Making calls"? If yes, select that and then choose "Ask every time when making calls" then the app will ask each time you make a call or "use GVoice for all calls"
Using the Google Voice app is the way to go, when you set it up remember to select "Ask every time" or "Use every time" and when you enter a number or dial from your contact directory, it must have all 10 digits or the GV app won't route the call, even on a local call...
Google Voice turned on:
Dial 222-1234 - Goes out via carrier
Dial 202-222-1234 - Goes out via Google Voice
For some reason people just don't seem to get that sometimes.
so what had happened was I installed the app first, and didnt bring my tmo number in because i thought there was a charge for that. I later added it on the website when i realized there wasn't, and because i had already set up the app i never got that prompt you guys were talking about. So I cleared the data on the app and then it asked me what i wanted to make calls from. Thanks for the help.
Anyway to replace verizon voicemail with google voice?
The only thing I can think of is using this under settings in Google voice

Certainly. Go into your dialer's settings and you'll find a Voicemail tab. You can choose Carrier or Google Voice.
