Hello..

Is there any VVM server that I could use for test bed?
Or could I use general IMAP4 server just for testing message incommings?

I was looking for test environment using this example but I couldn't get any 
helps from operators.
Please someone guide me for the test environments...

It won't work with API 8 if you use this codes without provider editing.
<android.provider.VoicemailContract> is included from API 14 which is required 
to use /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/contact2.db.

However, if you edit provider codes not to use contacts2.db and use your own 
db, it will possibly work within API 8 (I guess)

FYI.

To test VVM client without support of operators, you can use Gmail account for 
IMAP operations.
And if you have mobile network that you can install Now SMS, you can also test 
STATUS and SYNC SMS.

First of all, my answer is not 100 percent sure, because I didn't make this 
project from the scratch.

Anyway, as it is explained on following link which is from Android site, VVM 
(visual voicemail) feature have been supported just from Android 4.0 (API 14).
http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-4.0-highlights.html

To support 3rd party VVM related application, Android 4.0 platform only 
provides VoicemailContract class from their framework. This support from the 
platform makes that Call Log application can show voicemail messages from 3rd 
party applications.

And Android Froyo (API 8) does not include VoicemailContract class in its 
framework, so you would not possible to build a package from 
<http://code.google.com/p/voicemail-example-for-android>.

However, there are two options to make the build possible on Android Froyo.

One is copying two class files to your Eclipse project, and it will be built 
APK without problem. Needed classes are 
<android.provider.VoicemailContract.java> and 
<android.annotation.SdkConstant.java> from Android 4.0 platform codes. But I am 
not sure that this would run normally on the devices, because there could be 
some permission or security issues or other run-time dependency issues from the 
Froyo devices.

The another way is to make your own Provider, and not to use database file on 
Android Contacts Provider.
If you have tried to build the <voicemail-example-for-android> code with Froyo 
in Eclipse, you will easily see the point of errors.
The build errors are all related with Database Provider, and so if you 
implement your voicemail application to manage its own database provider then I 
suppose it will work.

Hope this could help you to find the way.
