help! Voicemail doesn't work on Mortify rom

Hi, I installed mortify rom, everything works well, except that I'm unable to get any voicemails. Currently I'm on FB15. when I clicked the VVM, it says: " account verification error communication with the voicemail to text server has timed out. We will continue to verify your voicemail to text account status in the background. voicemail service will not be interrupted while we verify the account status."
I tried to send a composed message to [email protected] , unable to send.
if I click settings-> check for update, i get "general failure. please try again at a later time."
any ideas? thanks in advance!

Either clear data in the voicemail app, or restore it from a previous install.

tried both, didn't work I even wiped cache, dalvik cache, and reflashed again.. same problem

Did you try it from a clean install? Factory wipe data, cache and Dalvik, reflash, sign into Google, and try VMM. If it works then you can start restoring things, but no data.

sigh, tried the factory wipe, dalvik, cache wipes... reflashed again, still not working
however, I managed to get google voice to work lol now, how do I uninstall the stock VVM?

Was gonna suggest Gvoice next..lol. Also visual voicemail plus in the Play store. Using root explorer or ES File Explorer delete vtt-sprint.apk from system\app directory.

hmm, for some reason, i'm unable to delete the vtt-sprint.apk file. I force stopped the application as well, and still can't delete it..

Make sure to make the system directory r/w.

The rom might be missing some sprint files. See if in setting about phone it allows you to update prl and user profile?

Try the two files on this thread; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19270912
And 3 or 4 post down from that one is another file. One is an app updater and the other is a sprint extension file. Push these through to system app. And see if that works. Kennyglass helped me with this way back then when vvm wouldn't connect and prl and profile wouldn't work.

[Q] Bypass exchange security

Hey all,
I'm coming from the Samsung Epic 4G touch ..... thankfully off sprint ......... that was a horrible 4 years of abysmal coverage .. slow speeds when it would connect .. and random disconnects thrown in just for fun....
I'm pulling crazy fast speeds everywhere I go ... Hit 50Mbps this morning on my commute..
However, one thing I liked about my samsung was that there was an APK to bypass the exchange security pin ...
Anybody know if the Epic 4g Touch (Sprint version of SGS2) APK will work on the G2? or if there is a version out there that will accomplish this ?
I saw one for the GS4 ...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2355654
Didn't know if this would work on the LG G2 ...
Thanks in advance!!!!
Thanks guys!!!!

Are you rooted? Do you have twrp installed? If so try it and give us a yay or nay. It's not that difficult.

Awesome!!! I hope you get it ... It's a pain in the ass to have to password unlock my phone everytime the screen goes off

I would also love this email bypass apk

Here is an Xposed module designed for the G2 that bypasses the Exchange password policy. Use at your own risk.

anybody got this to work?

When I try to install, it just says "Application not installed" and doesn't do anything .... I don't know if I need to put it in a special folder or something for xposed to see it ...... I don't know what to do
any ideas or is there a different way to install this APK ?

Try saving the apk then using solid Explorer or the built in file manager to find and install it. Installing from the notification shade doesn't seem to work

This is how I did it.. file explorer ... install
It just then goes to a screen that says not installed and your only option is to exit.
Xposed doesn't seem to know anything about this file.

Make sure to go to settings, security, and select install all apps or similar option

Solution
I just did this on my own before seeing your post- hopefully you will find this useful.
I used this set of APKs: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1965468
Grab Email-JB.apk and Exchange2.apk
First, you need to completely uninstall (not just freeze) the LG Email app. I used Titanium Back to do this- make a backup of the app first in case you ever wanted to go back for whatever reason. Once the LG Email app is uninstalled, you can install the 2 AOSP APKs.
I didn't try installing them normally (download->open->install), it's worth a shot- instead I used the directions in the post to push the APKs via ADB.
You should see "Success" after pushing both via ADB (I did Exchange2.apk first, but I can't imagine it would matter). Unplug your phone, open Email, and you're set. My Email is syncing perfectly with my corporate email, no lock screen password required.

YES!!!!!!!!!! This totally works..
Thank you for looking out, and thanks for posting this ... I've been waiting to be able to add this .. and having to carry 2 phones to check email because I didnt want to be pinlocked on my G2!!
My procedure -
Rom tool box free for the uninstall, the titanium way didnt work for me because I have TWRP installed .. and when it would try the recovery removal .. it would boot to TWRP instead of the stock recovery ...
Anyways, Rom Toolbox free has an uninstall utility, couldnt be easier .. uninstalls without a reboot needed.
Turned on wireless storage, copied over exchange2.apk and Email-jb.apk and installed through android .. didnt use the ADB method .... it works perfectly!!!!!!
Thanks again.

That works. Only downside is it removed the feature of peak and off peak for message retrieval. oh well.

Tried this several ways, but it does not install. Can u give some more direction on this? Do we put itf in the apps folders? Flash it? Any advice would be appreciated. I like the lg email app and don't want to go back to the stock one if possible.

if someone figures out how to do this with the stock email app that comes with the att version, that would be awesome. I like that version better than the one you have to install to get this to work.

I really hate having to use a pin, but I have to give my work permission to remote wipe my phone. Is there any chance this could be flagged by my employer and they remote wipe my phone? That would really suck because of the lack of memory card. Anybody that has been remote wiped, did it affect the entire phone, or just the main system?

[Q] Disable OTA Notification?

Hi all,
I am stock, rooted, and have TWRP. I have done the following:
mak213 said:
heres the FIX it easier than redoing ur phone to stock just go to terminal command in twrp and type
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota
then hit enter
type
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/misc
then hit enter and reboot.
EDIT: enjoy dont do the update also i wonder which OTA it is ?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I am still getting the OTA Notification (and at one point, I lost my mobile data).
I do have Root Explorer, and from what I have read, it sounds like I should just use Root Explorer to delete the contents of /cache/fota? I see the files that were downloaded from last night, but there are others that have older file dates. Will this eliminate the annoying notification?
Thanks!

I'm in the same boat. The dd commands will remove the files, but as soon as I reboot, the OTA package downloads again, hence the reason it seems the commands don't work (but they do). Basically we need to disable auto-updates and then re-run the dd commands from TWRP.
I just can't find where to disable auto-updates so I'm either blind, stupid, or very possibly both.

settings, General, about phone, rest is self explanatory
Sent from my LG-D802 using xda app-developers app

i too would love to know how to disable the OTA notification. It continues to pop up every time i turn on the screen. I hit back to get out of it but its quite annoying. There is no way to disable it from the phone settings. What app or process do we need to delete or freeze to fix kill this?

It should be as easy as changing a number or letter in the build.prop. If I could get screenshots of the build.prop of the updated and non updated I could write up a guide.

Don't see anything in Settings > General > About phone > Software update that will allow me to disable OTA notifications.
I did end up using Root Explorer to delete all the fota files in /cache/fota; restarted my phone and haven't had any notifications yet, though it sounds like it will automatically download again in the future (?)

Change permissions?
Seems like once the files in the cache/fota folder are deleted or renamed you could change the permissions on the folder (remove 'W') and thus not allow any files to be written there. True?

Did anyone tried to disable app updates application?

you don't have update center there in app drawer>settings>about phone>update center>software update?
When you open software updates, then there is a checkbox for automatic?
Switch that off and delete the current downloaded one. via the methods previously discussed.Then you should never get the prompt, unless you factory reset and its on by default again.

Ok, so it's not just me. I don't have "Update Center". Only option within About Phone is "Software update" which just checks for an update. I've got the Verizon LG G2 and am running 4.2.2 stock if that helps.
I've got a full backup and may just unroot, upgrade then reroot. Doesn't sound like I have a way of disabling. Changing permissions sounds a bit risky to me.

Just change the fingerprint in the build prop. Should say something like ...11a change the to the newest ...12b? And Verizon will think you are updated and stop pushing it to your phone.

Alright, I've got the notification to stop popping up for me on Verizon by freezing the Software Update app. Did it 30 minutes ago, rebooted and still no pop up. I tried searching for what to freeze as I knew there had to be something, but kept coming up with instructions for the GS4. I looked at what I thought was every combination but not Software Update (Update, Verizon, System, but not Software... dur dur).

Maybe if you read my post page back.

well within software update you disable the automatic checking.... it's the same thing man, are you kidding me? you guys cannot be that dense
then delete the downloaded update and your set...
It won't check for an update anymore, and the deleted fota won't ask for installment anymore.
Its that simple

Cannot install an .APK file

Hi,
I have the "unknown sources" allowed in settings but when I click on an APK I have downloaded and the installer comes up, looks like pressing the "install" button does not do anything.
Any ideas what might be the problem?

Problems in new Marshmallow update in Z00LD ( ZE550KL)

I am having problems after updating my zenfone 2 laser to Marshmallow
1) Gallary not showing pics ( It just show pics on first load after that no pics )
2) Not able to edit text files places in SD Card ( I am using ES file explorer ) .
If anyone has solution to above problem , Please help.
Otherwise I thought of downgrading the firmware to the older version,
I am having another issue while downgrading using ADB Sideload.
It shows me the error:
* cannot read 'UL-Z00L-WW-1.16.40.763-user.zip' *
Screenshots are attached for both the problems...

I'm not sure this will help you...
1) I'm not using stock gallery, not hating it, just don't feel like it, let's take what asus people usually say "make sure update to latest gallery app, and clear gallery data, is this problem still persist? ", or maybe you can check gallery "storage" permission? Is it allowed?
2) same as above, check storage permission,
About adb.. Yes, I can't sideload from recovery too, maybe because M? Don't know, at least we can flash from SD card

1)I was checking for gallary update everyday and just today I got the new update for Gallary, And the problem is solved I guess.
Which gallary app you use by the way.
2)And about the storage permission, es file explorer is allowed to edit files I have checked once again and attached screenshot also.

I'm using quickpic, they did give this app some "I'm not need this feature" thing, well whatever, we can disable those
I'm trying es explorer just now, and I can't save too, I'm a lazy guy, if that doesn't work, I blame the app... Wait till that app update, or just use another file manager

@mithips were you able to solve this issue? I got the same problem after upgrading to marshmallow AND then doing a factory reset. Before the factory reset the gallery app was working fine, after that the gallery app doesnt show any photos, but the camera isn't working well at all as well, instagram app gets an error after taking a photo, can't play music, it just works for calling (at least!). But to solve one problem at a time, did you find a solution for your problem @mithips?

My issue got resolved after updating the gallery app and remove gallery data from the app. If you didn't format the phone after the update then do it first. If you have done that earlier then you can try to wipe cache parition.
