How to get rid of voicemail app

[dbronstein]

I have an S7 Edge on Sprint. It has the stupid voicemail app installed. How can I get rid of it - it won't let me uninstall it? Or is there some way I can get the standard voicemail notification back - so when there is a a VM, I can pull down the status bar and just dial into my voicemail? I could live with the app if it didn't have the stupid ads. But I'd really prefer to get rid of it.

I've seen some posts around that say you can go into your sprint account and remove visual voicemail from your account features, but I don't have that option anywhere.

Locate the package name, example voicemail.apk then use adb to uninstall it.
