Where is native visual voicemail? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer

When marshmallow came out, it was touted that T-Mobile was one of the few providers that native android VVM (in the phone app) would work since it was carrier specific. This is something everyone misses if they go from iPhone to Android.
But, my S7 Edge is missing the feature, the only option is t-mobiles ****ty VVM app that I already disabled along with all of the other t-mobile bloat. What gives?

Blame Samsung. They use their own phone app which doesn't include visual voicemail. The default Google Phone app does. If you have the Exynos version, you might be able to root and sideload the Google phone app to get your visual voicemail.

Just install Google Voice from the play store.

But with google voice, you still make calls out of the default samsung phone app and then have to open the google voice app for visual voicemail, right?
Basically, theres no way to get phone / contacts + visual voice mail in the same app?

No way to do it other than going stock. The dialer Samsung uses is their own so it doesn't have it built in.

You can sideload the Google dialer & contacts without root, and disable the Samsung dialer with Package Disabler Pro.

Hmmm, well I installed both of them but the voice mail button is missing from the google dialer... it should be on the far right?

From my experience (because I don’t have any voice mails right now), it’s integrated in the call history tab.

I think its supposed to be like this:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}

Go into the settings of the app and turn it on.

OK - these are the settings of the Google Phone app, there is no voicemail tab:
And if you go into the original phone apps settings, voicemail settings are greyed out. I found somewhere online suggesting to clear cache to phone app and pull sim / reboot, but there was no change.

Whenever I tap on the "calls" option in the menu for the stock dialer app, it crashes.

Libraries are missing which is why you can't get to the stock VM settings. Tried ages ago and we can't fix it without root.

How do you block a number?

I remember on my droid there was an option to send numbers directly to vmail. Does this phone have it? Or just block the number? An available app?

Get easy filter from the market you can blacklist any number from calls or text!!
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Get google voice, you can block anything you want, send them directly to voicemail, have a personal greeting, etc.
You can also try mr number block in the app market it's the best one I've used yet
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I'm trying to remmber what the option is but if you have launcher pro installed you can block numbers with it. You don't have to be using the launcher though. If I remember right, start up launcher pro and press on the screen like you are adding a widget. Select shortcuts then activities. Depending on home many apps you have installed it can take a little bit for the phone to build this list. When it comes up scroll down to call settings, select it then scroll down to auto reject list click on it. It will make a shoetcut on your home page. Click on it and add numbers. The shortcut can be erased and the numbers will stay. Also you don't have to be using launcher pro for it to work.

Ditto! This is fantastic. My wife and I have been getting spammed by a couple of numbers lately and she will be very pleased to know this.

I use a profile in Tasker. When a phone # I specify rings, it picks up the phone, and then hangs up.
I am, however, working on something a bit more devious. Tasker will do just about anything, so I've gotten my hands on an audio file that does the "Doo doo deep! Your call could not be completed as dialed, please hang up and try again."
I've written a profile that will pick up the line, mute the microphone, and play back the audio file on a loop until the caller hangs up. Going to test it when my girlfriend gets home from work.

I would SO love a .zip or apk or whatever it takes to use this. it's genius lol
The telemarketer dialers are setup to remove the numbers that get that kind of response. That would be an excellent app!!!

muahahahahaha..
You can log into your sprint.com account and add numbers to block texts from also.
I loved HTC sense for having the option to send contacts to VM
but best software is EXTREME CALL BLOCKER
anyone who disagrees has 3 nipples
also if anyone doesn't know
TEXT 9999 with block "number" (without quotes)
its sprints service to block text. worked well with some creepo gurl I had to block. Works well for short codes too.

Turned it on. Why is there no way to turn this on without downloading another app?
Sent from my SM-N930P using Tapatalk
Mine was on by default due to the 10 day trial and then it was switched to the off after a notification saying I could pay for the service, trial expired. I enabled it again with apex shortcut and it works great. We will see if I get charged premium charge.
Oh snap this is a paid feature...
Not sure where you found the trial. I searched and nothing came up on my phone
Sent from my SM-N930P using Tapatalk
The trial popped up when I activated the phone. I didn't accept the agreement, but it started anyways. After I reenabled it, I checked my account and I don't see any charges yet. It doesn't work for all numbers though (not the phones fault, number probably masking info)
I have it on and it seems like it doesn't work. I got a few bogus calls that it didn't filter.
This did not work for me. Then today I was poking around in the settings and got it to work. I went into Applications in settings and then in the top right enabled system apps. I scrolled down to smart caller ID and clicked it. I went to permissions and enabled contacts.
Anyway an hour later I got a call from a family member from their home phone. I do not have this persons name saved in my phone. It said their first, last, and middle initial right on the screen. I was like wow it's working. So naturally I went into package disable pro and turned it off LOL. I tested it again with the same caller and this time it didn't show their caller ID, only their phone number. I tried to re enable the feature and have not been able to get it back since. If someone can try these steps and see how it works, maybe we can figure it out.
Kept messing with settings and it started working again. Rebooted and it went away.
Yeah this is definitely not working. The option to identify unsaved number Era is on but when I get a call from a unsaved number it doesn't identify the number.
Not working for me either.
Sent from my SM-N930P using Tapatalk
Mine quit working with the update
I was able to turn on the feature. I'll watch to see if it works. This is after the update....
Mines turned on but not working...

That's not an easy thing to do without root, but possible I guess. You think we should flash the csc from the international version? The only way I know how do it is with Odin.

[Guide]How to use the Project Fi wifi assistant any carrier(Any recent nexus device)

Hey guys. Since this is my first thread, any help/instructions would be welcomed.
While messing around on my Nexus 5x I got a notification from Google Connectivity services telling me if I wanted my phone to auto-connect to open wifi hotspots automatically through a VPN(Virtual Private Network). If you don't know, a VPN sends your data encrypted through a Wi-Fi network. The data is then unencrypted by the VPN server, and is sent to the requested location. This is useful if you want to use an open network but don't want people to be able to spy on your browsing. After exploring a little, I found out how to set this up.
Requirements
A recent Nexus smartphone or tablet running android Nougat
The latest version of google connectivity services
Navigate to Settings>Google>Networking.
Enable wifi Assistant.
It's as simple as that. Whenever you come across an open network, your phone will automatically connect to it through a vpn.
Thanks
I was under the impression they opened up Google Connectivity Services beyond Project Fi users to all Nexus users, so do you really need to download this separately?

I can't tell you for sure because I have fi and it has always shown up for me, but when I search generic with no account from a PC, it shows up on Google Play store, so I assume it is already there and available.

It has a store page on the play store but there is no option to download it for me.
Your right. I found Google connectivity services under system apps. I believe using activity launcher is still the only way to manually create the VPN. Thanks for letting me know

Gmail POP-UP preview and Floatify

I use Gmail as my default mail client, and I have noticed that I cannot get the preview pop-up for incoming new messages like I do for SMS. Apparently the only app that does it for me is Floatify, but I was wondering if there is something better available in the market?
Am I the only one who really missed that feature on Gmail?

Yup, that's what I was talking about. Only way to get them is through a 3rd party app like Floatify. I'm wondering if it's because of Nougat?
Go to optimise battery usage & turn off the gmail app there & check.
Turn of edge lighting. You will get the popup then.
Its the new edge lighting pop-ups that replace the regular heads-up notification
Guys i tried both things but Gmail unfortunately doesn't show any popup when a new message arrives. Try!
Found it. SOLVED!!!!
System settings > Notifications > Advenced (top right corner) > find Gmail > press on Mail > importance: choose urgent. DO THE SAME FOR MISCELLANEOUS AND ATTACHMENTS. BOOM DONE. FINALLY!
