I recently upgraded to Sultan LineageOS using the files from the link below.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...t/op3-op3t-unofficial-lineageos-14-1-t3588696
Everything works great, except for the phone app. It crashes as soon as it is launched, every time. So, I read the other posts regarding this topic. I installed T-Mobile Visual Voicemail (I don't have T-Mobile as a carrier, this was just an attempt to fix the issue). This seemed to work because I can now open the phone app. I then uninstalled T-Mobile Visual Voicemail. Now, I no longer have the voicemail tab on the phone app. How can I get the voicemail tab back?

I have fixed the issue as follows:
(1) Install T-Mobile Visual Voice Mail App (Phone app stops crashing)
(2) Launch phone app and dial into voicemail
(3) Delete any outstanding voicemails
(4) Uninstall T-Mobile Visual Voice Mail App
(5) Reboot Phone
Dude, I can't believe that worked. Cheers!

loving the heck out of CM, but i'm having a very specific issue:
I have the unlimited android plan, activated VV, all the good stuff. However, whenever I miss a call, and someone leaves me a voicemail message, I do not receive the message. What I get instead is a text message from a 954(?) area code, that has the date, time, and number of the person who called me. no voicemail at all, just the text message. Anyone else having this problem, or know how to correct it? i've wiped/reflashed CM and 1.6 dev, removed and reinstalled VV.
Are you using TMO Visual Voicemail or the Visual Voicemail from PhoneFusion?
Phonefusion sucks and it forwards your voicemails to a different number that they host from their site...if you are using that version, you need to go to the site and follow the instructions to unsubscribe. Simply uninstalling the app will not change your voicemail back...
If you are using TMO, did you call customer care and have them activate it on their end or only on your end? Also, check your voicemail number and make sure it's the correct one. You can check it in settings and TMO will tell you what the number should be...
I am running the same rom and no issues at all with TMO VV.
Hey Guys,
Has anyone managed to get Google Voice to work on the S5? On every other phone that I've had, and it's been a lot in the last year, I always just install the app, run through configuration and it's fine. On the S5, I simply can't get it to work.
I only use Google Voice for my voicemails. I don't make or receive calls with my Google Voice number. Every time I run through the setup it gives me an error and then says if I want to change providers or something like that. If I hit yes, it fails. If I hit no, my Google Voice voicemail doesn't work.
Any ideas? I went to the Google Voice website and deleted my phone and added it again with no success. What is going wrong?
Thanks!

you probably need to re-forward VM to GV. My S5 kept giving me an error when I tired to do it via the app, so I manually forwarded to my GV# via..
*004*xxx-xxx-xxxx# (where xxx-xxx-xxxx is your Google Voice phone number) then Press Call
PS: I'm not certain if you need to, but I set up my AT&T voicemail before I forwarded to GV,
I guess I got lucky -- I ran through the GV setup via the app and it worked perfectly the first time. I kept having issues when trying to set it up on my mothers S4...had to eventually reboot her phone and change it manually in settings. For my S5, it worked fine the first run through.
I also set up AT&T visual voicemail before GV. I did this just to double-check if my old voicemails were still there.

That worked like a charm, thank you!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
So, specifically for those who have the T-Mobile version of this phone, I keep getting these notifications from "128" when things get sent to my mailbox:
Visual Voicemail Alert: A new
version of My Visual Voicemail app
is now available. To access your
voicemail messages, you will need
to download the latest version of
the app.

The link redirects me to the Google Play store for My Visual Voicemail, which has only 2.7 stars (as of May 17, 2019) and so far, it hasn't been getting better.
I know it's a piece of doo-doo that doesn't work right.
Regardless, I just prefer regular voicemail. Been used to it. Is there a way to prevent these stupid notifications? Please and thank you for your help.
Hi,
Has anybody got native Visual Voicemail in Google Dialer to work? I'm trying to on T-Mobile but it's a no go for me so far
Thank you

I'm not on the same carrier but I failed to get it to work properly with mine I could get notifications and call I'd but no actual message.
For t-mobile this has been "broken" for months.
From the web it seems that T-Mobile dropped support for the built in visual voicemail. You have to use their app and well it doesn't work ever for me. It doesn't sync, or notifies, and constantly throws error saying we can't access voicemail please dial voicemail instead.
This just means my voicemail is now never ever checked.
Sign up for a Google voice. Set the phone calls to forward to the number if you are not available. Use it for voicemail. It will transcribe and email them to you.
Att's app sucks also. I miss my built in from Windows mobile 10 and this was the next best things.
All,
Got an unlocked S21U, ported from VZW to T-Mo, installed the T-Mo voicemail app, but I keep getting a VM notification from the app AND the phone dialer itself. I don't see any way to mute it. Am I missing something? Can't see a way to fix it.
Any ideas what I am "missing" by not having T Mo firmware?
Thanks

Sorry, yes, I did and it works, but now I get two notifications for each voicemail, one from the phone, and one from the TMo VVM app.

Are all of the voicemails deleted from the visual voicemail app? If so, i would call T-Mobile next .
Can't you simply disable phone app voice mail notifications?I use google voice for my visual voicemail and I believe I disabled notifications for voicemail notice dialer

Alas I do not have the option to silence the native phone dialer voicemail
Ever since I disabled the Samsung Phone app, visual voicemail hasn't worked at all for me. I have to dial my own phone number to access my voicemail the old-school way... It kinda stinks, but I just hated the Samsung phone app for its lack of calling over LTE whereas Google Phone still worked fine with calls over LTE (and had my blocked number list saved from when I had the Pixel prior to this phone).
I forward my calls if not answered to google voice which transcribes my VM so I have native visual voicemail instead of paying tmo for their version of vvm
