Thats almost definitely it. It a setting you can change in Google voice.

Sounds like you have Google Voice.
I believe this has something to do with Google Voice's Call Presentation settings. Turning it off makes it so that the first phone to pick up an incoming call, will automatically answer it.

I've uninstalled it before and relized that stock voicemail blows donkey...but I will try it again.

You can either set it up for just voicemail or you can use the full integration of Google Voice. The full integration enables you to screen calls, block unwanted phone numbers from calling you, handling your SMS traffic and a bunch of other things.
It sounds like you have the full integration enabled.

Yup, definitely Google voice. Log into you account via a computer and go through the settings and you'll see it there.

Like everyone else said gvoice change it online

Settings/calls/voice screening •OFF
Its should be off by default. It took me forever to figure that out.
Edit: Yea I ment its on by default, but should be set off and to switch it on if you wanted that feature.

Nope. It's set to on by default--which, I think, is a bad idea. Most people automatically hang up when they get anything resembling a voicemail so I ended up having to call people back because of that feature. I quickly turned it off. Voice is otherwise great, though.

Yes I noticed I get alot of 3 sec voice mails. Thx all

its probably just crap . I wouldnt worry to much. If you start to repeatedly receive the message, call sprint...
I think it is cause of cm7. I checked for my voicemail app and it is no longer present.

Yo man thats a voice mail you have if you are using a AOSP rom or CM7 if it doesnt have sprint VM APK cause its senseless you will get that message every time you get a voicemail. kinda sucks.
If you want the texts to stop, you can reinstall sprint voicemail:

Installing the sprint vvm won't stop the texts. Those will continue to come regardless as far as I know. I use Google Voice for all of my vm needs though.
Those texts are completely normal with AOSP ROMs. As stated before, it happens every time you get a voicemail. I think it's part of what makes VVM work. Some people use black list apps like Super Private Conversation to block them.
I use cm7 with youmail and I don't get those texts. If you use youmail it actually fwd all missed calls to its server so sprint never gets it. Annoyance averted. And it works really well as an alternative vvm.

Uninstalling the app does nothing you have to go to Google.com/voice and configure the settings really easy and simple

Ain't no "user error". It just appears.
I didn't have any problems until one day it started to say "press 1 to pick up" or something like that. I never changed anything on GV webpage.
I had to uncheck "call screening" or something in that sense.
For some of you who need repeating stuff to understand, I HAVE NEVFER CHANGED ANYTHING ON GV WEBPAGE BEFORE"
Okay so where is that setting at if its not on the website, I'm not trying to argue with you guys I just want to know how to remove the pressing one bs.

Once logged in under the settings turn off call screening... also make sure that you have the receive text messages box checked or you won't get texts

You can also un-integrate with your sprint account and it will act as a separate number on your phone. I have google voice plus app installed and have it set so that any calls to Canada are dialed with my google voice number and no long distance charges are incurred. All other numbers are dialed with my regular sprint number. Note that if you leave your google voice number integrated with Sprint, all calls will be dialed with google voice. That setting can also be found on the web based settings for google voice under the Phones tab.

Sprint and Google voice

I have been restoring a titanium backup of voice for a long time but being the happy new owner of a GNex I Installed fresh from the market. It didnt ask about the google voice number integration (the part we all skipped) Did I miss something or have they changed something. I also remember it asking about texting but now it only asks about calls. Can someone confirm. Thanks

I'm not sure what your question is? Do you or don't you want the integration? Are you having problems making or receiving calls or texts?

I dont want integration I just remember having to skip that part and now it no longer asks. I just wanted to verify with someone who has set it up recently that they removed that part. also if someone who JUST uses it for voicemail only would check their settings within voice > sync and notifications > it says receive texts via google voice app (which was another step which was missing I didnt choose that option upon expanding it the choices are that and via the messaging app. I do not want google voice to do anything but voicemails and the new app dosent appear to have the previous steps to deselect those options. I was just looking for verification
Thanks
also on the sprint GNex I recieve a flashing led upon rec of a voicemail but do not have the flashing led with a new text can someone verify this as well Thanks agn
Edit
I chaged the setting to receive texts via the messaging app and now i get a flashing indicator weird
U can select it to receive text also but it doesn't automatically integrate....have to go into settings and check it....

Is that a large menu button on your soft keys to the right of your home key?
Im on CM9Euro skank only allows for a small menu soft key
Thanks for the pic bro appreciate it

Just got my GS3. I have a few questions.

1) why does the GPS voice switch between a peppy young girl and another woman that sounds like she's been sniffing doggy downers?
2) Why does it sometimes read my texts out loud?
3) On the instant calling (the thing where you put the phone up to your head and it automatically called the person on the screen) mine always calls 1 of my contacts. I hang up then it starts to call the contact I wanted to call originally. Anyone else have this issue?
4) S Voice search. Why does it use a special google search with advertisements? what BS is that?

1- parts of navigation use a different voice than the default that u normally hear... don't really know why. Im guessing the lady on downers is the robotic sounding default one... the other sounds like a human recording which i guess they didn't record all of the possible directions hence the two different voices
2- that sounds like a setting u may have enabled in the accessibility section of settings...
3- cant comment cuz i dont use that fetaure
4- google is the dominant search engine... the os is designed by google... as for ads thats part of owning a mobile phone unless u root and block them
about the text reading out loud. Make sure you don't have talk back checked.

Phone app settings

I'm trying to set up Google Voice as my voicemail, but it only lists my carrier as the only option. I've searched around a bit and have seen people say to go to the settings in the Phone app and enter my GV in call forwarding.
Problem is I don't see that option on the VZW variant.
Can anyone tell me if I missing something?

I have the same problem and I can't find anyone who's experienced this besides you . I feel your pain . I was thinking since there update to gv they took this option out.
Try this.

look at this forum https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s8+/development/rom-s8-t3627537 it might give you some ideas =)

Google Voice will be your voice mail if you simply set the call forwarding correctly to your Google voice number. You can set your call forwarding thru the My Verizon app, online on Verizon Wireless website, or thru your dialer app by dialing *72 plus your Google voice number then press the call button. If you use the last method, you'll hear a couple beeps then it will hang up... And that's it!
Once you do this, your GV number is your voice mail. Further, you can change your voicemail speed dial setting if you choose (when you long press the number 1 on your dialer) by going into the phone settings shown in my attached pics.
Lastly, the "my carrier" setting is really a non issue. I've been using GV for voicemail for years now. On verizon phones I'm pretty sure the ability to technically change that setting to something else has been gone for awhile. It really doesn't matter what that setting says.... It only matters what you have you line call forwarding set to. The label isn't important.
