Verizon Visual Voicemail no longer working after upgrade to 1.19.06
- Mods, before you move this again to 3rd party apps, please realize that Verizon's visual voicemail is not a 3rd party app for the Storm:
So, back to the topic at hand, I clicked on "update" when visual voicemail prompted me to update the other day (to version 1.19.06), and since then, everytime i click on visual voicemail i get:
Required permission for Visual Voice Mail cannot be set probably due to IT policy restrictions, Phone needs Allow, Please consult with your system admin.
I tried manually reconfig'ing the permissions, but some don't allow you to switch to "allow" manually.
I've also uninstalled, reinstalled, nothing helped
Thoughts?
I'm on 4.7.0.85
Thanks in advance.02-05-09 06:30 PMLike 0 - Mods, before you move this again to 3rd party apps, please realize that Verizon's visual voicemail is not a 3rd party app for the Storm:

Soft reset, then delete the app. Then reinstall the app from the application center. VVM seems to be working best off of a fresh install, not upgrade.
I'm using .99 and it's working fine. In fact I've used every beta for the Storm and VVM was never an issue. But when I upped my VVM, I did so from a fresh install.02-05-09 06:41 PMLike 0 - Go to options>advanced options>apps>highlight but don't click VVM>hit the menu key and delete.
Do a softreset or battery pull.

Before you click on download, click on set app permissions set them all to allow, save and download.
I've run every OS that's come out for the storms, this has worked on all of them.
.60 is the upgrade that made VVM work the way it should on storms..

The problem the original poster is having is due to the fact that he is using BES. This is a known issue and the only fix is to delete VVM and install the older version. as someone above stated, do a search because there is a link to the older version on the forums.02-06-09 10:33 AMLike 0 - Go to options>advanced options>apps>highlight but don't click VVM>hit the menu key and delete.

So I'm on the link you provided, clicked on the checkbox to set app permissions, then clicked download.
I got a warning saying VVM is requesting changes to its application control permission.
fine.
then i go to change everything to "allow" but the top level stays on "custom" and the ones that are on "prompt" don't give me the allow option when you click...just prompt, deny and prompt.
WEIRD.
I'm going to download anyway, and see what happens. Any thoughts from here though?02-06-09 11:45 AMLike 0 - Edit: There's another thread, but given I don't have 10 posts, they won't let me link you...well, let me try this; just paste into your browser:

"upgrade" back to the old version. 1.19.2...huge thread above, people in despair for the same reason, and downgraded to the old version and it works great again.
stupid verizon.02-06-09 12:05 PMLike 0 - I'm having a similar problem with an end users device. I'm running BES 5.0. I've creatied software configurations for a couple different 3rd party apps. Doesn't matter which app I apply to a any device running Visual Voicemail, but it seems to change the permissions of vvm and it's unuseable. I go into edit the permissions but the items set to "deny" aren't changeable. There must be something in the 3rd party app push that I'm not seeing, but I can't seem to get this working correctly no matter what I try. I've uninstalled/reinstalled vvm, no luck. If I remove the software config from the users device, vvm works just fine. Help??05-17-10 09:25 AMLike 0
