How to get rid of voicemail notification icon

[tontondavid]

I have been switching between AT&T SIM and T-Mobile SIM for the past few dayson my P800. AT&T supports notifying you with the little tape player icon when you get a voicemail.
On T-Mobile however, you get an SMS.

After switching with the T-Mobile SIM, the tape player stays there even though I don't have any voicemail. I also made sure I deleted all voicemail when I was using the AT&T SIM.

Please help....

FYI, if I do a master reset, the icon is gone but as soon as I restore, the icon shows up again.

hmmmmm...........With the AT&T SIM in your phone, call and leave yourself a voicemail message. Wait a couple of minutes, then go into your voicemail and delete the voicemail. This may reset the icon. Worth a shot.

I have this problem with Cingular. Sometimes the icon won't go away. I leave myself a new message and delete it from the phone. This usually gets rid of the icon.

I am using mine on T-Mobile in Alabama with no problems. Voicemail icon lights and then goes away after checking the "FULL" message or deleting it. It will add an sms to your phone. I have experienced what you are describing with Motorola phones, but my P800 has operated perfectly in both firmware configurations with the exception of the follow-up sms.

Thx for all the replies. I tried to put back my AT&T SIM and to leave myself a message as suggested. Then went in and deleted the voicemail and.......bam, no more voicemail icon. I was really happy but then, I replaced my T-Mobile SIM and the voicemail icon reappeared.

Tried to do the same with the TMO SIM in and it didn't do the trick. Any other suggestions??

Cheers.

It says network voicemail, it's really annoying because i cant tell whether i have a real vm or its just the bug. Has anyone found a solution yet?

I am using t-mobile in Chicago Area...and I don't see an icon when I get a voicmail. I would rather see an icon than have a sms sent out to me.

Is there a way to change this.

Thanks,

Ravi

T-Mobile only uses SMS to notify you of a voicemail. When I had this problem, I had put a SIM from ATTW (they use the voicemail icon), then switched to a T-Mobile SIM. In other words, no way to change it from SMS to voicemail icon.

Cheers.
