The number fusion gave me is 415-932-0220, to set your fusion to point to the new number, dial *284159320220 and press send (*28 being the needed command)
----------------------

So I signed up for an account with phone fusion, downloaded the phone fusion visual voicemail app, then dialed *28 813 200-0200. Now my voicemail is this fusion voicemail, messages download to the app, and the best part is a rep said I wouldn't be charged. (They stopped charging today aparently lol.) I'm on a simply everything plan.

You don't need to have the app visibly running in the background. Notifications work fine to let you know (icons and all.)

For anyone who's wondering, to set the speed dial (holding down 1 on the phone app) to get to the new voicemail, just go to Start>settings>personal>phone then right there on the first tab (phone) put in 1(813) 200-0200 as the voicemail number. When you down 1, it speed dials to that number now.

DOWNLOAD THE CAB HERE: PFVVM2.cab

SO TO RECAP:
  1. Sign up for an account at http://www.fusionvoicemailplus.com/.
  2. Download their version 1 cab, or the version 2 cab posted here (version two shows a person's name and photo if they are in your contacts list.)
  3. Dial *28 813 200-0200 from your phone. *28 tells Sprint's servers that the number proceeding will be the number to forward calls to when you're unavailable, busy, or don't answer.
  4. Go to Start>settings>personal>phone then right there on the first tab (phone) put in 1(813) 200-0200 as the voicemail number.
  5. Open the app, turn auto-download on, associate the app with your account, and your good to go.

A FEW THINGS TO REMEMBER:

  • With version 2, once installed, don't forget to associate your account to the app by going to Options > Settings > Configure Accounts. Your login information is the same as the website's. Changing your password with the menu options within the voicemail system does not change your password here, or at the website.
  • IF YOU DECIDE U DONT WANT TO KEEP IT simply dial *38 from your phone. This resets call forwarding on no answer, busy, or unavailable to your default sprint voicemail.
  • If you are running into problems with recieving text messages (notifications of new voicemail) from fusion, you need to DISABLE HTC Messaging. (I personally can't remember doing this, but I installed an arcsoft cab that might have done it for me.)
