Hey guys

This should fix the Sprint visual voice mail on some roms.

Zip files below are

Sprint VVM Fix.rar
Are the files you need to merge with your rom and do a fresh flash.

update.zip
This will should work ( if you can reprovision your phone. )

For sense roms after you install the update via recovery and reboot,
you need to dial ##786# go to menu/reset and enter your MSL number.

Non sense roms you may need to call sprint and have them reprovision
Your phone. Remember this still may not work with your particular Rom !

oh yea, the little counter still doesnt show over the widget
on how many voice mails are un heard, working on that!

show some love and hit the thanks button.

Sprint VVM has always worked on MIUI.. just have a titanium backup of Voicemail with at least one stored message on it and back it up. Then restore on your fresh MIUI install.. Go into phone settings and change your voicemail number from *86 to your actual phone number.. done..

It was, until about 2 months ago. Then it would provision, maybe work for a day (This is by flashing it in GAPPS) then stop working.

This method seems to work fine right from first Boot after flashing the ROM

Tried every fix to get visual voicemail to work on my MIUI ROM but get the 'Unable to play message' error every time. I want to give this fix a try but need to know how would I go about merging these files into the ROM? Any help I'd greatly appreciate :)

I have the files broken down as to where they would go inside the Rom,

Open up your rom up with either 7zip, or winrar, navigate to the \system\bin folder
open up the zip file I posted the same way, and drag the 3 files from inside the bin folder to inside your roms bin folder,
now do the same with the file inside system\app folder, move that file inside your roms system\app folder,
say yes to any prompts of do you want to add these files to the zip, that may pop up!

Also remove any older versions of Sprints VVM that may be in your rom

Close off 7zip, or winrar, and re flash your rom.

After your phone starts up for the first time, go in to apps and light it up for the first time,
it will set its self up, and you should be able to view micsausages after that!

I'm having this moved over to themes and software side of the forum.

I appreciate you taking the time to give me a step-by-step guide to get this working. I'm an owner of a Mac so will see if using the built in zip/unzip feature will work. Also I have everything else working perfectly and don't know if I want to reflash the ROM to have to setup everything again. Was anyone able to make this fix a flashable file yet by any chance?

I posted a flashable zip file on the op

but you will need to reprovision your phone for this to work,
once you flash via recovery and reboot, you would need to dial ##786# menu/reset and enter your MSL number.

Unfortunately that code does not work on the MIUI ROM that I'm on :( But thanks a lot for trying to help me get this to work for me.

You know that doesn't work on AOSP ROMs right?

I've been on sense so long it flew right past me,

He has 2 choices, I think he can call Sprint and have
Them reprovision his phone.

or flash over, and either way isn't a for sure that vvm will
Work with the Rom his using.

Hipcat arent you using miui, I though I read in a previous post, did vvm work for you
I flashed one of the builds about a year ago, but only used it a few days.

I'm running EnergyROM 2/6/2012.

I tried every fix in that thread and this one to get Sprint VVM working and nothing worked. It has something to do with VVM setting itself up when the phone hasn't been provisioned correctly or something related to that. Steps #6 and #7 below are not possible in EnergyROM that I can tell.

This is what I did (took ~15 minutes, after 2 days of f*&^ing with it):

1) nandroid everything on my phone.
2) Boot into recovery
3) Flash FreshROM -- this has a baseline working VVM.
4) Boot clean, setup, but DO NOT launch VVM
5) Settings... Update PRL
6) Settings... System Update
7) Launch VVM and verify it works.
8) Do not update VVM
9) Do a complete Titanium backup of VVM (w/data)

10) Boot into recovery
11) Restore everything from nandroid in step #1
12) Reboot normally
13) Use Titanium to COMPLETELY delete VVM (w/data)
14) Use Titanium to restore VVM backup (w/data) from step #9

Has anyone tried this yet, not sure if it will work but its woth a try.

its my vvm backup but with my info removed, you might be able to just add your info to the file and then do the backup.

Someone give this a try.

with the titanium backup I posted below edit it for your info,
use open archive from in 7zip. find com.coremobility.app.vnotes-20111231-152250.tar.gz

navigate to data\data\com.coremobility.app.vnotes\shared_pref

take out just cmconfigstring.xml and edit it

edit all the parts I removed with my info, and replace them with your info,
parts to look for in cmconfigstring.xml that I removed are

>username only, No @sprintpcs.com<
>your 10 digit #<
>username@sprintpcs.com<
>10 digit MSID<

there are like 5 or maybe 6 places to look for

do not leave spaces, and or dashes inside it should look like this >6165551212< and >username01< and >username01@sprintpcs.com<

save file and place back in, say yes to 7zip saving,
place the entire titanium folder on your sd card, and do a backup of voicemail app, install the Sprint vvm 5.1.60 from below, and before you start it try and do a backup of data only.

please post any results.
