Google Voice not working from G2 call logs. Anyone else notice this? It shows I have a voice-mail in the phone's call logs but it won't play. Hitting the log does nothing. Can go into GV and hear the message so that seems to be working but it doesn't work like my Gnexus did. Anyone have thoughts or a fix for this?
It's not working right for me either. I kept hoping I would find a setting somewhere but I haven't yet.
Yep. I'm seeing problems too. Sometimes phone rings on an incoming GV number call but most of the time not. This is potentially a deal breaker. I only use GV. Any solutions greatly appreciated!

Try an older version. I wish i could comment on if this works, but i can't get my phone to access google voicemail settings. I recently resubmitted my resume online and i've had 5 calls come in this past weekend on my phone. None have not rung.

You can manually set it up through your Google voice acct. Online. It will give u the code to set forwarding and everything ...

Ok. Did that. I tried it a few times today. Rang no problem. I do not get any indication in the recent history of a voice mail but i can swipe notification bar and click on the vm and it opens in voice. Will mess around some more.
My phone rings and it shows in the recent calls notification list. It just won't play the message from that list. I have to open the voice app to listen to the message. I just wish it was more like my Galaxy Nexus but this is probably due to LGs Android tweaks.
I never even look for VM in call log, just quicker, and easier for me to click the notification ....

I reverted to an older version of 0.4.2.54 frin 0.4.2.82 and still am having issues with ringing on an incoming call to my GV number It will ring about 5 our of 7 or so times, but when it doesn't ring, there is no notification of a missed call, not even from GV. I have to go to the Missed call folder on GV to discover the missed call. If someone does leave a message, I do get my notification of the voice message.
This reminds me of the problems I had on my old Droid X with GV and the stock VZ Motorola ROM on that phone. My last phone a Gnex running stock AOSP never had an issue with GV. I suspect that this has something to do with LG's phone/dialer app interacting with GV....
I am also running lightflow for notification, but that shouldn't have any impact on just having the damn phone ring on an incoming call.
Update.
I allowed the OTA and changed Lightflow to not run in the foreground and since haven't had further problems with GV ringing phone on incoming calls?
Not sure what fixed it.

I have a similar problem, i can't make calls to certain numbers with gv. Nothing seems to fix it. It's definitely the g2, i switched my sim back to my nexus and gv works fine.
I was having the same issue. I deactivated it and activated it, and that seemed to solve the issue. On at&t you dial ##004# and hit send to deactivate it. To reactivate you dial **004*1(your gv number)# without the parenthesis and hit send.
How can I get my voicemails to show up there? Does it work with Verizon? The tab only appeared after I installed Google Voice and set it up as my voicemail in the phone app settings...
It doesn't matter to me if I have to use Google Voice or Verizon's native voicemail, just seems like a cool feature.
On a related note, Google Voice regularly alerts me of Voicemails hours or even days after I get them...is that normal?
The integrated voicemail in MM is carrier dependent. The only carrier voicemail with full support at this time is Tmobile AFAIK. I doubt it will come to VZW anytime soon. I'm pretty sure visual voicemail is still a $10 up charge for them.
For anyone wondering, I was able to get my GV voicemails to show up in the MM native phone call log by enabling the setting in GV's settings.
HI all,
So its Day 2 with my 6P, going great so far. Then I remembered about voicemail and I never really did anything with it besides swipe away a notification yesterday. Here's where it gets interesting... I could swear I had a 4th tab in the phone app for voicemail the other day. Now I have nothing. All I have now is my voicemail number which my phone dials to receive. Where the hell did it go?
I found some N5X posts that claim that pulling the sim worked to restore that 4th tab. No luck for me with that solution.
Anyone have any ideas or encounter the same thing? I'm on ATT for the record.
Thanks!
Who is your carrier? You can check for the visual voicemail feature in the dialer app,click on the three dots in the search box, go to settings, then calls, then voicemail. See if visual voicemail is turned on. It should be if supported by your carrier. I think T-Mobile is the only one that supports it currently, that and Orange in France. I could be wrong on that one though.

try dialing 1 or long pressing 1.
but the best solution IMO is using Google Voice Lite for Voicemail. free transcription, voicemails on PC and syncing to all devices anywhere in the world.

Best option until verizon releases a visual voicemail app like they did on the nexus 6 if you are a Verizon customer.... Have to go with google voice.
Edit: I see you are on At&t . Probably a similar scenario as the Verizon one I am referencing.
FWIW, i'm on VZW and i still have the (4th) voicemail tab... but it's non-functional. said there were no voicemails even though there were.
i DID have visual voicemail activated on my account too... so obviously at this point this tab is not yet compatible with VZW.
that said, i also wasn't getting notified of new voicemails so i called and had them remove visual voicemail for the time being. fixed the notification problem.
am looking forward to this 4th tab actually working though!
Has anyone had any issues with missing incoming calls on their 6P? I have missed 3 calls (while I was connected to WIFI) which I found out about because I got a voicemail but my phone never rang. The people that called said my phone rings for about 25 seconds before going to voice mail. Do the APN settings have anything to do with calls or just messages? Any other ideas?
you messed with your APN settings? i've done that on my '13 X. if you selected to only be on LTE vs. CDMA + LTE, you're going to miss calls.

I have my preferred network type set to Global. Should I change it To LTE/CDMA?
APN is set to VZWINTERNET. I didn't change any of the settings within that APN.
The weird thing is, some calls do come through but not all of them.
oh i thought you went in to the hidden menu.
I get an issue that I don't get a voice mail indicator...I get some scrambled VWZ text message.

It is the result of you having visual voice mail and not having the visual voice mail app. You need to turn off visual voice mail in your verizon account and use basic voice mail or find the verizon visual voice mail app.

You have basic visual voicemail enabled. It comes automatically with a Verizon HD voice/advanced calling package that enables VOLTE. Until a visual voicemail app is released for this phone from Verizon you will have to use google voice for voicemail through hangouts. Works great. or you can call Verizon and see if they can downgrade you to the normal (call in) voicemail you were used to but not sure if it is possible. i have heard mixed reviews as to whether they can do that.

Youmail is a good alternative. I used that for my voice mail for a few years.
Im having the same problem I know I have basic voicemail. No voicemail notification just some cryptic sms

Oh that's annoying that Visual Voice Mail is bundled with Advanced Calling 1.0! Just tested it by removed Advanced Calling 1.0 and I guess the normal voicemail notification now.
I guess I rather deal with the annoying text messages than to lose the ability to simultaneously use voice and data.

I would also appreciate a cheat note on how to do disable Visual Voicemail. Hell, with this new Dialer, I can't even figure out how to get into the dialer settings to update the *86 voicemail number with my pin, and I've been an Android user since Froyo, so Marshmellow has kicked my but!
But back to my most serious concern, I need Advanced Calling, so if it is kills two birds with one stone, I'd be happy to have standard voicemail since that's all I ever used. Then Verizon and Google will hopefully sort out how to enable Visual Voicemail *and* Advanced Calling too. But for now, please share any secret menus previously mentioned so I can disable Visual Voicemail! :fingers-crossed:
Update #2: Turns out Verizon's Visual Voicemail and Advanced Calling are not related, but I did learn that Advanced Calling also enables HD Voice. It turns out that the Advanced Calling feature isn't enabled on a NEXUS 6p when activated via the nano sim on Verizon. Calling the support line is the only alternative to correct this. After a restarting, Verizon called me back, and I had Data while on the phone.
I'm going to mess around with different Visual Voicemail options before switching back to Basic Voicemail, and I'll update again if I find something.
The Visual Voicemail issues is weird. First, I get indecipherable text messages. Then when I get another phone call after a voicemail, it pops up as my Google Now Card notification for drive time to work, and there is no way to answer the call! I had to reboot to clear that.
Thanks,
Ed Janx
Update: So I downloaded the Verizon Mobile App which has the ability to change your features, including Voice Mail options, but it wouldn't let me select Basic Voice Mail, and instructed me to call *611 . No time for that now, but wanted to provide a quick update.

I found it while working out my voice mail junk here. Open the dialer, in the "search contacts & places" search window at top, press the three dots, select Settings, Calls, Voicemail. Then you can update the voicemail number (not sure about the PIN function though). This has been bugging me as well, only was getting the weird SMS messages. Was able to select basic voicemail using the My Verizon App though (was able to select all of the 3 options for voicemail with the My Verizon app too). So waiting till they update their apps to 6.0 and hope they work then.

I ended up opening a ticket with tier 2 tech support. (thats who they addressed themselves as). First day i didn't think advanced calling worked but i missed that i wasn't connected to LTE but once i did get LTE it worked my bad.... But the voicemail they couldn't figure out. after three days of no call back. I got someone else from tier 2 support and he got my voicemail to work while I was calling from the 6p. finally happy to have regular voicemail notifications and not those cryptic sms messages

I switched to the Google Voice Visual Voicemail and am very happy. Still, I did call Verizon tech and instruct them to switch me back to basic voice mail. Now I can at least I can switch the phone VM back to Verizon, listen to saved messages, then switch back to the Google Voice. Still, I really wish Verizon would just update their Visual Voicemail app to work with the Nexus 6p, as that way I could retrieve some of those 'precious memory voice mails' I've saved for years, then save them digitally.

I got my PH-1 activated and just realizing there's no Voicemail app. When you get a voicemail notification, it dials into my voicemail. Is this because it's a near stock android, like the nexus and pixel? Is there anyway to get the Sprint Visual Voicemail app? I had it on my previous phone (Galaxy S4).
Thanks

Get a Google Voice number and forward your phone to that VM.
You can get a text with the content of your VM transcribed.

I always hated Springs VVM app/service. Google Voice is way better. You have 2 options there: 1) setup conditional call forwarding or 2) integrate your Spring number to Google Voice.
Follow these steps for conditional call forwarding -- https://community.sprint.com/t5/Google-Voice/Google-Voice-not-picking-up-28-does-not-work-here-s-the-fix/td-p/348100
Conditional call forwarding forwards unanswered calls to your Google Voice number, but doesn't ring -- instead goes to voicemail there. It's all seamless.
Integrating your Sprint number with Google Voice is nice, actually. The catch is you can't use Sprint's WiFi calling feature. You're not missing anything anyway and there are ways to use Google Voice over wifi too. When you integrate with Google Voice, you share the same number on both services. Make calls from your phone as normal, your computer, tablet, virtually anything with an internet connection. Same with texting. It's all synced, sort of... Texting via Voice is synced. Texting via SMS... well, Google Voice only keeps a record of received texts. Best part about Google Voice integration is it includes spam blocking for calls and texts. As in, fewer robo calls and fewer spoofed caller ID calls.
I disabled my Voice integration to try WiFi calling. I couldn't wait to go back. Without Voice, I got 2-3 robo calls per day. With Voice, I might get one a week. And I can handle my calls and texts at work from my PC if I have to, keeping my phone down and still looking productive.
You setup Google Voice integration within the Google Voice settings on a PC/web browser. You might have to chat/call Sprint support to remove Wifi calling from your account. If you tell them you're trying to setup Google Voice integration, good luck. 9/10 don't know it's a feature and the 1 that does barely knows what it does or how to set it up. If you get an error setting it up, it's 99% likely because wifi calling is enabled/on your account.

Yeah, same here... haven't figured out how to make it work yet!
I can't believe this is not more active, or that there isn't threads for Sprint & voicemail specifically. Obviously I have Sprint & the native phone app voicemail does not work. I got an email from Google voice support telling me Sprint deactivated my Google voice intergration, & that if I want to enable it I need to call Sprint. I've been on phone several times last couple of days going back & forth with Sprint & Google to no avail. When I go into legacy voice settings from a PC the "let Sprint work with voice" (however it's worded) button is not there. So I will call Sprint again & see if that wifi calling is enabled & if so I will have them disable it & go from there.
It just really is mind boggling that in 2018 this is even an issue for anyone. Especially when service like Sprint actually has an add for "BYOD" (bring your own device). They should have small print stating "if you don't want to get voicemail notifications"
I'd settle for just that somehow, just to get notified that I have a voicemail. And then I can dial in over phone, enter a pin & do it that way. As I see it now, that's my option, to call into my voicemail every hour just to see if I have one.

Google removed integration of Voice with the dialer.
To get integration with the dialer you need an old version of Voice.
You need Google Voice build number 0.4.7.10.
You can download it from one of the archives.
Remove the current version of Voice.
Also make sure you turn off auto-update in the Google Play Store or you will lose the integration as soon as Voice update.
It's been a known issue for years.

I have Google Voice integration just fine with the most recent and previous versions of the app... Not sure why I'm so special.
Yeah I've been using it fine, then voice was kinda built into Hangouts & I would get them there. Because of that intergration in Hangouts I used that for my SMS & they always went through. I used Hangouts because when I'm at home I have literally no data, so I used wifi & just couldn't make calls. In the settings of Hangouts you could see settings for g voice. This still worked long after Hangouts did that auto prompt telling you Hangouts for SMS would no longer work & wanted you to install Google messages. But anyway I tried 4.7.1.0 & it gave me # to provision, I tried dialing it but I'm at home & the call just ended. So I'll have to retry next time I head out & get a data signal.

Let's be clear, there is integration and then there is integration with the dialer.
integration will allow you to get you VM via your GV account and number because your phone forwards to you GV number.
Dialer integration means you don't need to open the Voice app to check or see your VM.
The former works great. The latter is broken in more recent versions of the Voice app.
