[Q]Permanently removing ongoing voicemail notification from rooted lollipop.

Sorry for the long post, but I wanted to give as much information as I could.

This has been driving me crazy. I'm on Net10 using a Galaxy S5 though I don't think this is device specific. I use google voice for a work number which I access through Hangouts to make phone calls and the Google Voice app for sms and voicemail. My issue is that I have an ongoing voicemail notification that I cannot seem to get rid of.

After much searching this is what I've learned:

My belief is that I have a voicemail on my Net10 account. However I have been unable to access this voicemail box from either my phone or another phone.. Both are directed to google voice even after changing my voicemail number to my cell phone number (Is there another number to access Net10 Voicemails?).

It seems to be something to do with Google Voice being configured as many threads I've found concerning this involve that as a symptom, however no solutions were found that helped me.

There are two solutions that have worked, but with issues:

1- Force close "Phone"

This does clear the notification, but not only is it very annoying to do, it also seems to only work for a half hour or so (I'm guessing until the app is restarted?)

2- "Clear Voicemail Notification" App found on google play (sorry I don't have enough posts to post links yet).

This app works by clearing data for the com.android.phone or com.android.server.telecom process which makes the notification.

This also works, but again only for about a half hour or so.

I tried to make a Tasker profile that would clear the notification by force closing "phone", but ran into an issue when trying to select the app. I clicked the "All" at the bottom Tasker when viewing my apps, and tried every app named "phone" there were about 10 of them, but none of them cleared the notification. I did check "Use Root".

If anybody has any suggestions please let me know. I have a locked bootloader so no custom recovery, but I am rooted. I can recover through Odin, however it is a giant pain since I can only restore to stock each time and re-root. I am also familiar with ADB and Shell commands.

I do not want my voicemail notification to ever show up, as the Google Voice app has it's own notification for this.

On thing I was thinking was trying to modify the Phone.apk app and remove the voicemail notification all together, but I'm not very good with java, and also the computer I currently have access too is a Dell that still has a floppy disk drive.... so development is quite slow. If anyone had any pointers on how to modify the app I would be willing to commit the time to trying it though (it's my parents computer).

Also calling Net10 pretty much not an option. If any of you use Net10 you know how dreadful their customer service is. I would only do this as a very last resort.
