Voicemail password help

Hmm i may give this a try will i get alerts that i have a voicemail when not in 3g? (I enjoyed that about visual) because i dont always leave 3g on

Google voice will send a copy to your gmail account and can even send you a text. Why disable 3g, anyway?

This drives me nuts. For the last 10 years I've had it this way so I guess you could say I've gotten use to it. Now it just annoys me more and more each time.

Solution...

Talked to Verizon and got them to send me the Motorola Android Support # 800-734-5870.

Called them and got this info emailed to me and it works. Looks like people using the stock multi-touch keyboard would never have this problem, but everyone using swype or slide-it (like me) do have the problem.

Note there were images in the email, but they didn't show up. I don't think I could have got them to post on here without a lot of work anyways.
