I have an AT&T S5. I also have a Google voice phone number. When people call my actual phone they get the voicemail for Google voice. How can I fix it so that when my ATT number is called they get my voicemail and when my Google voice number is called they get my voicemail for that? Thanks

You must have conditional call forwarding activated on AT&T. With GV, you set it to forward all calls to your cell number. If the call is unanswered, it normally goes to the AT&T voicemail system. But with conditional call forwarding, you can tell it to send the call back to GV instead, so that GV handles voicemail. I REALLY like this since it lets me use all the great GV features for both numbers, like visual voicemail, custom greeting messages etc and handle all voicemail in one place.

If you don't like it, change it in the Google Voice app or call AT&T and have them disable conditional call forwarding.
