I signed into Google Voice on my phone to check out what it was, then boom...it takes over my phone. I hit do not disturb because I think it'd revert everything back but instead it blocked all incoming phone calls/texts. So, I took Google Voice and signed out of it and now I have call screening (where I have to press 1 to accept calls) and I no longer receive texts...last I did was sign out then uninstall Google Voice. What the hell?
Running stock GRJ90 deodexed/rooted.
To completely disable it you have to sign into Google.com/voice and disable it in the settings

Me thinks someone doesn't know how to use a simple and immensely useful app/feature.
By the way, is it considered a bad thing to have Udon ramen noodles for breakfast if you're a broke bachelor?
I can't imagine using android phone without Google Voice.

So how do you stop annoying "press 1 to accept the call" feature, and retain the functionality of transcribed VM's and SMS?

I edited my question after your posted, sorry.
I do like to have the functionality of SMS and transcribed VM's.
Will turning the screening off retain the above?

For some odd reason I won't get any phone calls on my nexus now.
I will start looking through the GV settings...
I would recommend setting everything up on the web. I have my number integrated and don't even have the app installed

Have you tried a voodoo kernel?
On another note, I use GV for voicemail and voip when I want. On the first install it took over my entire phone buy after changing settings online I got it set up the way I wanted.

<3 i think the your problem is that you integrated your number when you install it instead of continuing press skip and then it will ask if you want to sign in with your gmail and follow the steps i had the same problem do not integrate!!1!!ONE!!
I'm finally able to use Google Voice without it taking over my device. After you've removed yourself from the software. You can go to the GV settings via the internet on your computer and just choose activate voice mail instead of choosing to integrate your device. Once this is done, open up GV on your device, and the first window allows you to skip the integration portion and allows you to just use it as Voicemail. BOOM!

I'll try this lol. I've got like 12 voicemails and can't get to them because I don't know my Sprint voicemail PIN. LOL
Question for Sprint customers who are using their Sprint number for their Google Voice account; are your Sprint mobile to mobile or anytime minutes accurate when using Google Voice?
Reason, I have seen complaints on other blogs, pertaining to inaccurate minutes usage and wondered if any of you have experienced this.
Best Regards!
Does anyone know or can recommend an app the lets you send/receive SMS & MMS with the Thrive over Wifi?
Sent from my Toshiba Thrive using XDA Premium App.
I have been using Heywire for sms. It does not do mms but it is excellent for sms. The person you send the message to doesn't need to have Heywire installed.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
you can try texttab. What it does is connect thru Bluetooth to your phone, and receives any SMS your phone gets and sends them to your thrive. Which you can reply and send on your thrive once your paired up.
TexTab worked awesome on mine! I absolutely love that program. Thanks for the head's up on that app. Definitely worth paying for it...
I have google voice and I have loved being able to text from any browser, including the thrive's browser. Especially if you're on sprint for your mobile servce, I would strongly recommend setting up google voice.

Sprints decision to work in collaboration with google voice makes it this way. I have Sprint and love them for this. A friend of mine is having trouble figuring out how to send google voice sms from his Thrive since he is on TMobile tho.
I use DeskSMS, I started using it over month ago and the fact it actually syncs with my contacts on my phone rather they have Google Voice or any other service makes it IMO the best app there for texting over wifi without having to jump between phone numbers. Especially for those of us that didnt want to lose our MMS capability by completely syncing with Google Voice.
I tried DeskSMS for a little while and it works ok. I stopped using it because Google Voice Canadian numbers are still not available. Hopefully I will use DeskSMS again once Canadian Google voice numbers are available.
Rogers Wireless use to offer wifi calling and text for consumer however this option is no longer compatible with my current plan with them so I had to improvise.
I`ve also tried textplus which work very well and you can get a Canadian number by
paying a monthly fee.

I am using google voice on all my android devices and computers. Most over wi_fi and all sync almost at the same time. Love the thrive.

Am not sure if this is discussed somewhere.
Anyway, just to share.
Here's how:
Every mobile broadband card comes with a number, and that number will be used when you send / receive SMS.
- Download official Go SMS Pro here and install on your tablet
- Launch the app and send SMS to your other mobile number that you are using to make calls
- The sender number is what your friends will see when they read your SMS from Tab!
Enjoy
On European 3G devices, there is a stock app called Messages, so i don't think that third party app is needed.
For those with the wifi only version , check out TexTab.

Until Verizon releases Touchwiz for the LTE versions, this seems like a good alternative. I'm going to test it now.
EDIT: Does not work on mine, says "cannot send message, will send it when the service becomes available" and that message sits there forever until I uninstalled it.
That's because verizon blocks text messaging with their tablet plans.

Yea I work for verizon and whenever I sell a tablet, a provision is loaded onto their account called "block text messaging". It's very odd indeed since the original galaxy tab allowed you to pick a texting bundle.

I been using Heywire and it works well, gave me a regular US number.
If anyone has a 3G tab with Touchwiz, but no Messages app. Try to send a sms to your data plan number, i think that the Messages app appeared after i received the first sms message from my operator.

If your carrier supports RCS, you can follow this video to enable it on your Hongkong / Taiwan Galaxy Note 20 Ultra.
For those who don't know what RCS is, it's a feature where you can send original quality photos, video and other large supported files using your phones messaging app. It's like iMessage.
What does it do really, with rcs

You will be able to send uncompressed photos, videos and other large supported files thru the messaging app. It's like iMessage.
It also works for unlocked device on U1 firmware on T-Mobile.

For them to support it natively. Should not need google messages, as Samsung messages supports it, as long as the network provider has Universal advanced messaging.

I'm on verizon, was using google messages for chat, but turned it off. I'm missing too many messages. People will call and ask me if I got them, I check and status in chat just says "connecting". Have to force close and open messages again to connect, but the missed messages never make it through.
That's good to hear. I was wondering why I was missing messages, here and there. I thought it was due to something else.

I'm very sorry for how this may sound..... BUT, you know you can change the "light- up" settings per each app in your settings right? Your phone doesn't have to light-up for each text message you receive, or any other app for that matter.
