So I tossed in an active tmobile SIM to verify my 4S was unlocked & also to see if my area was still EDGE only. Everything worked fine & when I went to the voicemail tab visual voicemail was gone and it dialed right to my tmobile voicemail & I set it up. I totally knew visual voicemail on tmobile didn't work so I wasn't surprised by anything. HOWEVER, I poped in my AT&T sim again and for the longest time visual voicemail WOULD'T show up with it, it kept just calling my AT&T voicemail and AT&T only reported that I had two unheard messages (try, for the longest time I've had two visual voicemails with blue dots on them)
Finally after restarting the phone it asked for my voicemail password and when I put it in the two new messages and about 7 others poped up. However, I had about 25 messages dating all the way to like 7 months ago. I did a backup to iCloud just a day or two ago so I figure I can restore them that way, but why did a few show up on their own? Any way to force the app to refresh all its voicemail or anything? I never deleted any and I don't have a "deleted voicemail" folder... I just kinda wanna avoid losing about 25 text between now and my last backup and the SEVEN HOUR long iCloud restore :-/
