Google Voice on Galaxy Nexus Native Google Experience? I don't think so

Trying to setup google voice as my primary phone, text and voicemail is frustrating and possibly impossible. Can anyone help?

Here are some posts from Google Voice Help

Do you already have Google Voice (Y/N)? Yes I was using Google Voice number ported to sprint
If so, do you have a Google number (Y/N)? Yes had prior to Sprint Verizon Ported
For Mobile apps, what device and carrier are you using? Google Voice

So the phone worked fine for the first few hours.

1. Logged into Google Voice and removed the sprint connection

2. Uninstalled Google voice from phone

3. Turned off Phone

4. Removed Battery

5. Verified phone on Google Voice Account

Still can't text or recieve texts

Cant setup voicemail

This has NOTHING to do with Verizon WHATSOEVER.

First off Google Voice integration is EXCLUSIVE to Sprint. Meaning NO CARRIER in the US can do this.

Sprint - This is from Sprint

Google - This is from Google

You have to be a Sprint customer...

When you ported over your number you lost your Google/Sprint number if you inegrated them. You will have to get a new number to get them to work again...

Your number is now associated with Verizon message system and not Googles/Sprint.

The Sales Rep in the store told me it would work. They ported my google voice/sprint number over to Verizon and it worked fine. I could make and recive calls and texts.

The problem was that the full functionality was gone. Google Voicemail and Text features were gone. Trying to port my number to google now to see what happens.

It is entirely a Verizon issue. Verizon has not allowed the Google wallet and does not officially support texting from google voice at all.

What is the solution? The Google Nexus should be a pure google experience.

That's because the number is no longer tied to google voice. This has nothing to do with a "Google Experience Device". Sprint is the ONLY carrier that offers Google Voice integration with your actual phone number without the need to get another number from Google Voice. You'll need to request another google voice number, install the google voice app and set up no answer call forwarding to your new google voice number.

People have the largest MISCONCEPTION of what a pure Google Experience device is...

I wish other carriers offered the google voice integration I enjoy with Sprint, it is fantastic. It *IS* Sprint-only though, on every other carrier you have to have a separate GV number and "real" phone number.

I think you will need to contact Google Voice support.
