Is there any way of using an mp3 as a voicemail greeting? I'd like to utilize this somehow.

A quick search pulled up some of the same questions, but I had a hard time finding any answers.

Is there anyway to make an mp3 file a voicemail greeting? Besides recording from the computer speakers as it plays? I was going to try to use this:

It currently makes me laugh.6 months from now who knows but thought I'd try it for awhile.
A friend recently got a new Samsung Moment. Since then, he reports that callers sometimes get his personal voicemail greeting, but sometimes just get a vanilla greeting with the phone number, or perhaps an inability to leave a message at all. We're trying to figure out why.
1) Could it be related to the fact that the Samsung Moment has Visual Voicemail? My friend doesn't use the Visual Voicemail program on the phone (yet), but rather dials 1, just as he used to, to both set his greeting and hear his messages. My understanding, however, is that he was switched to a Visual Voicemail-capable server anyway.
2) Could it be related to roaming? I wonder whether his new job is in an area with poor Sprint service, where his phone is often going into roaming. This would also explain why his battery is not lasting the full (overtime) workday.
3) Could the separate server used for Visual Voicemail be downright flaky, constantly flopping up and down, or perhaps over-busy? Wouldn't other customers of that server complain if so?
When I attempt to set my voicemail greeting, it first asks me to set a 4-7 digit password, then hit #. If I hit # without entering digits, it says "# is not recognized". The user manual clearly states "Sprint recommends you set a password, otherwise anyone who finds your phone can access your voicemail." That implies you don't have to set a password. So how do I tell it I don't want a password, and let me move on to the greeting recording?
View 2 Replies View Relatedis there a way to set an mp3 file as your custom voicemail greeting? I am currently using Google Voice for voicemail.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI tried troubleshooting on google. I tried emailing them, but there is no option to email about the voicemail greeting, just telling me to wait after i change the settings.
So to the problem, I recorded both my name and custom greeting. When people get my voicemail, they hear the standard greeting "Please leave your name and Google voice will try to contact 'Thuyet To'". I went to all the settings, changed everything to play my custom greeting, but I'm still getting nothing.
Not sure if anyone else was having this issue, but if you want to get the old automated robot voicemail greeting instead of a recorded greeting, go ahead and record your main greeting and then go back into your voicemail settings and delete the greeting. It will revert to an automated greeting. Also, to get it to say your number instead of your recorded name, go into personal option under the voicemail settings and delete your recorded name, and it'll revert to just saying your number in the automated voicemail greeting.This had been bugging me ever since I got the phone since I hated recording a greeting myself and for the life of me I could not find the option for an automated greeting. Anyways, hope that helped.

Is there any Android app that can do this functionality? How do I search for this feature on Android? Is there any name for this feature of playing a greeting message to caller?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHow do I select the standard default greeting for my sprint voice mail? the standard greeting Im referring to is the default we always hear with the female electronic voice"...u have reached the voice mail box of ###-###-####.....". A couple of nights ago I was prompted to enter (record) my own "greeting" and now I cant find the option to revert back to the default one. I tried all the options after calling my own voice mail but cant seem to find the default greeting option. Also, I stopped receiving voice mail notification (the numerical number of voice mails I have next to the voicemail icon) after the software update. how do i get that to work again?

View 16 Replies View RelatedWhen I first activated my Hero, it required me to setup my voice mail again. There is no prompt to activate the default system greeting that reads your phone number back to the caller. For example "You have reached the voicemail box of 123-123-1234" Now I am required to record my own name or greeting. I just got off of the phone with Sprint and they told me due to "Visual Voicemail" that I have been switched to a new voicemail system. Can you confirm that you no longer have a prompt for the System Greeting?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am a noob to android and apologize if this has been asked already but under the specs list on the sprint website, it says visual voicemail. Is it true visual voicemail where you can select which message you want to hear first and play them in order of priority or is it an email visual voicemail where you actually read the voicemail as a text. I never had a phone with vis voice so I am interested in finding out how it works.

View 6 Replies View RelatedA new update T.5.1.0.48 for Visual Voicemail is available to download now. It has a Free 1 month Voicemail-to-Text service and auto forward to email address features. So far, I think only EVO 4G is able to download this update. I had tried my Samsung EPIC 4G and it got nothing.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there any app that instead of the voicemail going to the network it gets stored on my phone? It end ups costing me quite alot (0.102 a minute and theres a minimum charge, so even if i have a 30 second call it'll still charge me 10.2p). So if there was an app that saved me a couple of quid a month, that would be amazing. i've got a HTC Desire on T-Mobile (uk)

View 3 Replies View RelatedI used my dad's upgrade to get the Evo on launch day. Bought it on his line and transferred it to mine. Now whenever he calls me, instead of saying "Firstname Lastname", it says "Voicemail".
Obviously my voicemail is not calling me. His number still shows up on the incoming call screen.
Same thing happens when I call him. It says I'm calling my voicemail.
My ACTUAL voicemail works just fine.
I would like to put a password on my voicemail but I do not know how to do it. Help please.

View 9 Replies View RelatedSo how do i turn off the voicemail instructions that callers have to sit through every time they get my voicemail?
"After you have finished recording your message..." bla bla bla.
I had it turned off on AT&T so my callers would hear ME tell them i wasn't available, and then a beep. No canned instructions.
I found seemingly outdated instructions for Sprint that dont work (at least on the EVO).
Anyone know where its hidden at on the newer voicemail system?
So I didn't set up my voicemail yet, but the phone has been doing it for me, I guess. My previous voice mails and my 9 year old OGA have all been deleted. When I use the "Visual" voice mail, which btw, is hardly visual, it's more like photo voice mail. No visual text to read. The only two options I have are speaker or earpiece. Bluetooth does not work! When holding it to my ear to listen in private, the phones sensors never pick up the fact that the phone is near my face, and the screen stays active. Touch your face with it, and who knows what function you activate. And the audio quality is bad. You know who it is, but the sampling rate, or codec they use is low quality and you get a tinny buzzing sound constantly while the vm is being played back. Am I using this wrong, or is this just an Epic Fail on the part of the software?
