you need to go to your google voice account online using a pc and "activate" your phone. just go to http://www.google.com/voice and it will ask you for "create" a GV number and continue from there

Figured i would piggyback instead of starting a new thread...,i have had a vmail notification since i installed this app a few days ago. I deleted it from my voice inbox and i deactivated voice and deleted it from stock verizon vmail too. Any advice on deleting this notification? Also where is the thanks button on the mobile site?

I have had the same problem, albeit because of different circumstances (I have discontinued using my GV voicemailbox, but when someone leaves a voicemail in my carrier voicemailbox, I still get the GV notification icon). I know of no way to clear the GV voicemail notification icon, other than through the notification icon "window" (i.e. when I press the GV notification icon, my device attempts to retrieve the voicemessage by contacting my GV voicemailbox - this doesn't get me the message, but clears the notification icon). The notification icon does disappear after a few days if I do nothing.

simple. deactivate GV and uninstall. your default VM should pick up on that. to make sure that its indeed off. go to settings > call> voice mail. it should be listed as "my carrier" if not then go on the website and deactivate GV again (assuming you removed it off your phone already)

PS this works everytime on my Evo

I have tried all that before I found this thread and for some reason it is still using GV voicemail.
It is listed as "my carrier" in the settings, but when you call me GV still picks up. I would really like to use VZW voicemail again.

Any ideas?
