[Q] voicemail missing after rom install - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I am trying to find out if anyone has had the same problem, I flashed a new version of a rom and update, then installed a nandroid backup and seemingly everything came up- texts, recent calls etc. but after a while a I noticed two things were missing my voicemail app- Verizon and the 'Here and Now' from My Magazine. Does anyone know the version that is supopsed to be on the phone currently with KK? I found a visual voicemail app which only seems to be a plain Verizon voicemail app. When I click on the icon to launch it, it starts but hangs saying "Please wait while we check your account information" then after a couple of minutes it stops saying, "Sorry w'ere having trouble setting up your service. Please try again later. If you still can't set it up, contact customer service at 800-922-0204 and tell the operator the error code is 9009". Obviously, I don't want to be assisted by Verizon and then have them say "i see your phone is unlocked and we can't help you" Anyway, the version voicemail that I installed is 3.0.4 and it is 11.80 mb. I tried to find it on 'Root Explorer' but can't seem to find it but obviously it's there, I just don't know how to find it. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

Try using root explorer to push the app in instead of installing it. Copy voice-mail apk to your SD card. Then use root explorer to copy the apk to your system/app folder on your phone. Then long press the apk to bring up a menu, go to permissions. You will get a 3x3 pop-up box. First row check the first two boxes on the next two rows check only the first box. Reboot your phone and see if that clears it up.

Root Access, Can't Uninstall Bloatware

So I'm rooted on my Evo and as far as I can tell I've flashed the stock rom that should allow me to uninstall the bloatware, however, I dont see any uninstall options for that crap like facebook.
Anything I'm doing wrong?
I followed this guide to root and flash. I've tested my root using the "Terminal Emulator" and typing "su" and it returned a "#"
Thanks XDA, I love most of you
You know you need to uninstall from your computer using adb
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk
I've installed Android Debug Bridge but I was under the impression that rooting my phone would allow me to do things on my phone, such as install and uninstall what I want.
Could you explain the process more or send me to a link that does?
If you want to do it in android you either need console program or a file manager. Root explorer us the best one and easiest. Looks just like a typical explorer, tap the rw/ro button for read only or read write and delete away.
You have to have completed the second part of unlocking nand. Otherwise your only option is using a computer and adb in recovery.
They dont make this easy do they? I would have figured Android to be very open for things like this, I'm starting to feel like I have to "jailbreak" again, only this time it's to remove crap.
This seems like so much work to get rid of facebook and sprint tv.
It took me 10 minutes total including the file downloads. Its a one time thing and there is a learning curve with any new platform.
Aridon, is there a free explorer you'd recommend? I dont mind buying software, just want to make sure I'm not mistaken before I buy something that is worthless to me.
You get a trial on any purchased software in android. After its installed if you go backto market and pull it up again there will be a refund option. So no risk. I think its for 24 hours.
As for a free one I'm not sure when I first started messing around with android I bought it because people said it was the best. I don't have any regrets.
Just remember to tap the top button for rw. Long press brings up options. Menu had an option for multiple file select and other goodies. its very powerful.
Aridon, thanks for everything, just 1 more question. I bought it, and the program is slick. I went to /system/app and deleted facebook, is that all I need to do?
Cause I still see it in the menu
I may have done a bad thing, my phone just reset itself.... I need a trainer to be with me at all times.
So after that restart, the files I thought I deleted are back.
Yes just go into system/app, make sure it says rw up top which means read write access, then select the file, general an .apk and .odex and delete. Not all files have both and some roms don't have any .odex files.
I'll be up for another 30 min or so and I'll keep an eye on this thread in case you have any questions.
Ok that means the second part where you unlocked nand wasn't done correctly. Make sure you go slow, download the files again because they are different and watch for errors.
The only hiccup I had was when I copied the new recovery and other files to my sd and tried to adb push it gave me some kind of can't find file error. I had to reboot and it was fine. It send after the boot I could go back in and adb the files it must have been some kind if a refresh error on the sd while in recovery.
Edit. I'm responding on my evo and in bed so excuse errors.
Go to sleep, I'll resume this thread tomorrow if I'm still having trouble. You Sir, are a life saver. This is why XDA is THE FORUM for anything mobile.
Good night then.
I know it can be a bit of a pain to do this but I promise you it will be worth it. Things have only just started and the custom roms are already awesome. Once we get the source code things are going to be insane over here.
Got it! Everything is working well. However, now my voice mail says it can not download messages.... Rebooted and it's all good.
Facebook and Twitter Free! Also, no more Sprint crap.
Life is good, again.
Another terminal substitute is Android Commander, out is naturally a file explorer that allows transfer and deletion off whatever you want. This program runs in your pc.
As Was mentioned above, root explorer is the easiest way.

So with Android - one simply deletes the application rather than un-installing it? That doesn't cause problems with the system thinking the application still exists somewhere?

It depends on where it is installed. /system/apps do not allow you to just uninstall you have to delete it. One this is done its gone. Obviously if you delete phone.apk you are going to have issues or if you delete a process that is running you may get a force close but for the most part unless you delete an app like people or dialer you are fine. After the single force close everything works properly.
Some custom roms moved programs to /data/app which allows them to be removed the other way.

Please Help, Messed Up

Hey guys, I've pretty tech savvy but new to playing with smartphones.
I have the Titanium backup and I removed some bloatware. (Bell Galaxy S 2.1, rooted, unlocked on Telus) I made out OK but stupid me never did a backup first.
Everything was fine until I removed Google Talk and I don't remember the other one below it. (I think it was goolge talk storage or something like that)
No when I boot the phone up I get Error com.google.process.gupps closed. And I can't download from the market. Everything else is fine afaik
Can someone help walk me through this?
A google search ?
https://wiki.ousli.org/index.php/Vo....google.process.gapps_has_stoped_unexpectedly
Thanks for the help but on my phone I don't have that option. Where do I find the place to clear it on my phone?
Wich one you don't have ? Try clearing all google stuff
There are no options on my phone that I can find for clearing anything google. I know how to clear the browser stuff but can't find anything else to clear google things. I found where I can sync my google contacts, gmail & calendar but not clear it. There's an option to remove the google account and I tried it but it says I can't delete the account because it's used by the phone and I'd have to do a factory reset.
Press your device's < Home > button, then press < Application >.
Select Settings and then Applications.
Select Manage applications.
Maybe All tab
Select Gmail Storage and then select Clear data. Answer OK when prompted.
Return to the list of applications by pressing the < Back > key.
Select Gmail and then select Clear data. Answer OK when prompted.
Restart your device (Press and hold the < End call > button, then select Power off. Press < End call > to power on).
I found and cleared google service. that fixxed the error on boot up.
But the market still wont download and angry birds beta stopped working at the same time this happened

And try to re-install angry
Thanks for the link. I am just a bit scared to install it because it says it gets rid of the radio. My market worked fine before I deleted Gtalk and Gservice.
Is there another way?
OK so just to clarify, everything on the phone worked fine before I uninstall Gtalk and Gtalk Services (I think that's what it was, it was right below Gtalk)
Can I put the Gtalk and Services back on to fix it? (If so where do I find it online? Maybe someone has a dump?)
I don't know how to install the marketfix without the market either, it just sends me to the market no matter what I do.

Download on computer and transfer anywhere on you sd then use my files app to install it
Thank you, I will try that tonight.
I wanted to ask too, if I wait for the official Froyo update will that fix this problem too?
Well yes cause you will flash your phone with new fw
froyo is due 2 weeks away
not sure you want to wait for that long
The EXACT thing happened to me before. I did a google search and learned that Google Talk is in fact tied to using the Market.. I had to reflash my phone's firmware to get everything back.
I recently made a backup of all the default software of my SGS including Google Talk. So I have its apk and such.. I dunno exactly if you can install it from an APK..but yeah I have it. I'll upload it for you when I get home later.
I will just reflash the phone with original firmware if I can find it. Mine is the Bell version. Will the IMEI change if I reflash it with new firmware? Mine is I9000UGJH2 currently. No updates available through kies.

[Q] Visual Voicemail unresponsive/won't activate (Nonsense ROM)

Hey, first post here.
After wiping my EVO Shift and installing the most recent version of Nonsense, everything appears to work except that Visual Voicemail doesn't seem to want to activate. For example, if a voicemail is left, I'll get the notification text of its presence, but the message itself won't push to VVM.
I've tried installing the newer version of VVM posted for folks with the Voicemail Update issues described, but it's just as unresponsive.
I've also tried alternate ROMs to test, and VVM appears to work just fine with them (saved voicemails are present, new ones arrive without error). Since I prefer the Nonsense ROM, I'm hoping I can figure out how to get it working. So far I've had no luck - any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
is your voicemail all the way updated? it should be T.5.1.0.56. I know I had the problem that the voicemail wouldn't update and so I had to put a sprint updater .apk back into the /system/app folder to make the voicemail app update. Maybe they're related?

I had this issue on several of the Roms I tested out. Sometimes I would get voicemail notification hours after the voicemail was left, it was very sporadic. I just flashed NFX shift semi-stock new rom and I can confirm there are no voicemail issue everything works fine.

I figured. Maybe I'm going around finding it the wrong way, I plug in my phone as a "disk drive" and then manipulate stuff that way?
Good Idea/Bad Idea?
ah, the "disk drive" mode only allows you to explore the SD card. /system/app is located on the phone itself, so you'll need to use a file explorer like Astro or the ADB shell. Personally, my voicemail problems didn't stop until I pushed the voicemail .apk and the sprint updater .apk via ADB

Awesome. Ok, that makes sense. I guess now I must figure out what you mean by by "pushing" I'm guessing I have to use the CMD like when I did recovery?
I have the voicemail .apk mention on this thread, where do I get the sprint updater?
assuming you have ADB set up (which I think you do to root the phone in the first place...), just plug it in, make sure that USB debugging is enabled and NOT to put it into disk mode. Once you've done that open up command prompt/terminal and type this:
Code:
adb push /path/to/vvm.apk /system/app
where /path/to/vvm.apk is wherever you have that particular .apk on your computer. you should just be able to drag the folder into the command window (at least that works on macs, I'm not sure if it does on windows). You can find the sprint updater in the stock ROM in /system/app. just make sure to reboot your phone after the pushing, and hopefully everything will be working

Yep - that's the version I had updated to. Still no response for some reason.
And I had success flashing the NFX Shift Semi-Stock New ROM as well - for some reason VVM worked flawlessly with that ROM, which is why (coupled with the fact that I seem to be the only user encountering this error) I'm confused.
All the same thanks everyone for the suggestions so far!

I tried and still nothing. Maybe I didn't do it right...I typed CMD in the Run in windows. I copied and pasted the command you typed and the path to the apak file and...got a bunch of info...stuff describing how adb works and whatnot but no "success" or anything...should I even expect that?
A successful push just tells you how much it pushed how fast. If it's not, you may have to type adb remount first to get read write permissions for /system

Something that likely related:
When I upgrade the VVM to 5.1.0.56 and launch the app it attempts to verify my account for about a minute then states that: "Communication with the Voicemail-to-Text server ha timed out." It also says that Voicemail service wouldn't be interrupted by the app re-verifying, even though VVM doesn't actually work.
So something regarding my VVM's ability to talk with servers? Hrm...
Hey guys, not to hijack here, but I have found in my experience that google voice is the shiznit when it comes to flashing different roms and such where you need to wipe your phone... I always liked the sprint vvm, but gv will carry everything over, and have no setup other than to download the app. It took me a while and a bunch of missed messages to figure it out, but now I wouldn't go back. Either way, Good luck getting it straightened out.

you can copy files into /system/app with root explorer.. well worth whatever it costs. I never used adb after i got root explorer from the market
I'm having trouble with the VVM on my Wife's rooted EVO Shift. I pulled the updater app out of system apps, but put it back in there to try and get her VVM updated. The updater starts and says Upgrading Voicemail application, however, eventually errors with Sorry, there was a problem checking for update.
I've tried on 3G, Wifi, 4G and its consistent. I rebooted the phone after putting the updater back and fixing the permissions.
I rooted the phone when we got it, installed the custom recovery, then cleaned up stuff with Root Explorer, not much else.
Any thoughts or recommendations?
Hey. Sorry to go off topic but does your plan have to be provisioned for vvm for it to work? Is it supose to say vvm in your bill?
I've never got visual voicemail to work on the hero and this phone but my plan was never for android phones.
Thanks in advance if anyone can answer!
Save the hassle and go with google voice..also sprint vvm provisions automatically..from what I knw it never said anything bout vm on my bill

[Q] APKs won't sideload via adb or a file manager

So I am trying to load a couple of apks I have and it's been no go. On my Epic I usually just dropbox, open, and install. I tried that and initially got the security message. That is already taken care of via nookcolor tools. So that isn't the issue. My issue is every time I go to install I go to Astro, open the file via the "open app manager," it takes me to the info install page...I click install and it loads into the package installer, excellent...and then it just stalls and the progress bar runs and runs but never progresses. This has happened with every apk I have now tried.
Okay...so I figured I'd just go the little more involved (very little, no need to be that lazy, right) route and adb install. Well carp. All goes well, I adb install blahblah.apk and it starts rolling..."570kb blah..etc pkg /blah/temp/blah"...and just hangs there...never to give me the gratifying "success" message. Again, I have tried this with different apks that I know work and the same results. I restored to stock and rerooted, just in case. Same
I am running stock rooted (manualnooter) at this point, just got the nook day before yesterday (one of the many who jumped at the refurbs). Market apps download fine. I'm a blue dot, if that makes any diff. Likely not but meh.
I have searched and googled and not found the answers...but I know I am missing something elementally simple. My luck I'll look like an idiot and it will be a "did you check to see if you had any gas?" broken down car scenario. I'm okay with that, as long as I'm running again. I'm pretty sure I checked all the out of gas scenarios but I likely missed one or two so... any help is much appreciated. Thanks a ton...
I should know better than trying to write before coffee
Well, My answer is not a "check gas" answer. It's pretty dang weird.
1. Download ES Explorer from the market.
2. Start ES Explorer, hit Menu>Settings. Goto Root Options (NEW) and tick both check boxes. Hit allow when it asks you to.
3. Go back twice, until you see your sd card contents. Find the APK on there and select and hold. Hit copy and then hit the 1st button on the row of buttons (it's an icon of an sd card OR a Home icon) If you see a data folder, go in to it. If not, hit the 1st button again.
3. Once in the data folder, go into the app folder. Pull up the little white tab on the bottom. Tap the APK you wanted to install. It will copy. Once you see the APK's icon in the folder, hit the home button and restart. That should have installed it but it is a slow method. Note that you can Multi-Select APK's by pressing the Multi-select button and pasting them all in the /data/app/ folder.
are you sure you have side loading checked
Settings > applications should be the top box.

I think he already took care of that. And he is on stock, so there is no Applications setting.
ikingblack, thank you, thank you!
Not sure why but by doing this it somehow unsnafued the package installer as well (fingers crossed). I went through your instructions with a known good apk that would not install for anything before. And there it was after the copy, paste reboot etc. Not too much to ask for...still was confused as to the why of the normal package installer method not working. So I decided to give it (package inst) a go with another known working apk (I had just tested it on my epic) that previously wouldn't install, repeatedly, and now it installed just like it should. Scratching my head in wonder. It shouldn't be the reboot, as I have do so many times...the only difference is the install instructions and adding ES (I'm leaving astro behind I think). All I know is it is working and I am a happy camper (tent is in the back yard...) Thanks again! cheers!
Sure. Also, you can select all the APK's using the 2-file icon at the top and tapping the APKs, then press-and hold on one of the APk's and then go to data app, and keep tapping the APK's you wanna copy. And then reboot. Enjoy your Nook!
Thanks for this, it fixed it, but I don't know why.
I suffered this issue on my dell streak.
It was working fine a couple of days ago when I installed GetJar.
Suddenly today for no reason I can determine:
All APK's I tried the install button in the package installer was not grayed out, but it would not respond when pressed.
I've just been setting up my streak again and installing a lot of software. I'm guessing something must of gone wrong.
Someone on another post suggested JuiceDefender may have caused it but I've not installed that recently.
In my case I did:
(1) Installed esFileExplorer
(2) Copied an apk to the folder /data/app/ as described above
(3) restarted the phone
This did not install the app for me.
(4) Tried running the apk file again. Suddenly the Install button is clickable again?! The app then installed just fine.
(5) Tried a different apk (without copying to /data/app/)
Now that will install fine?!
This is really weird. I can't replicate the issue now (which is good!)
but I also can't tell which action fixed it.
As said above it may have been installing esfileexplorer and giving it root access.
It may have been the act of copying the file that reset something.
It wasn't the reboot, at lease not on its own as i'd already tried it.
Regardless, thanks for the info.
If anyone sees this issue again you might want to just try installing esfileexplorer and see if apk's will then install.
This might help us identify which bit of the process is creating the fix.
Just found another suggestion if anyone is interested:
Some suggests using the 'Fix permissions' option of Titanium Backup. I have no way to test this.

If try and log on in this window i get 'no internet connection' error. There's links below for 'forgot password', amazon.com.jp customer?' and 'don't have an amazon account'.

No. Those directories must exist on the device, so either the ancient rooting method you used did not work properly or else you are using some kind of file manager that does not show everything. Some of the old rooting methods may fail with FW 1.2.2 (which is what I assume you are using).

Yes, did you see the last bit I added to my previous post? When you try to login with your Amazon account you get an error and Amazon almost immediately sends you an email with a one-time password to enable the old Kindle app to login. BUT, without the updated cacerts.bks file functioning, any login attempt--even with the one-time password--will fail.
You said "file/system/etc/security". What is "file" doing in there? The folder you want is at root so the address is just /system/etc/security. Unless you meant something else.
Okay i can see the security folder now by following post 3 by Overbytes here https://forum.xda-developers.com/nook-touch/general/view-root-files-nst-t2817036
"If you're using ReLaunch that was installed with NookManager, to change the launchers behavior from the home screen click on the gear in the upper right corner, this enters you into the settings menu, click on advanced settings, general settings, make sure that the don't leave start directory item is unchecked, go back and under file manager settings check show hidden files and uncheck hide known extensions. Back out again and in the main advanced settings menu scroll down and click on the save settings and restart item. You should be able to view anything on internal and external storage."
However when try to copy the i simply get an error message 'unable to copy/move cacerts.bks
Maybe the device isn't rooted????

I'm not sure Relaunch can do what you need. You can "see", yes, but that doesn't mean you can change. To do that, /system has to be mounted as R/W and I don't know if Relaunch can do that. Back in the day I used an app called Root Browser. Now I just use ES File Explorer as a general file manager. It can be set for root access and also can mount /system so you can make changes. I've attached a copy below.

If you are asking about the NST, Google abandoned Android 2.1 back in 2017. No market access. You'll have to search online for what you want and side-load it.
