Hello
I got myself a shiny new TyTN. So far (coming from Blue Angel, then Universal), I'm very impressed with the device. There's only one slight nuisance: I don't receive text notifications for new voicemails anymore. I just spent about half an hour with my operator's technical (competent, by the way) support trying to sort this out.
They told me these notifications were a special category of text messages; say I have one voicemail waiting for me - I get a text message "You have 1 new voice mail in your voicemail box". If I don't listen to it and I get a second, the network only sends an update telling me "You have 2 new voice mails in your voicemail box" etc. I guess this works the same in other countries as well.
Support did a trace and they saw that the notification not only went out, but was acknowledged by my device after between 8 and 40 seconds. Still, my device doesn't show the message. Is there any tool I can use to purge the text message cache on my SIM card (support told me the messages were stored on the SIM)? Or is it possible HTC f***ed up and implemented this feature wrong, so I would have to wait for a firmware update?

I own an Orange device (SPV M3000). When I receive a notification about voicemails it shows up like an SMS message.
I had a look on the WorldWideWeb and found some information for you

I had the same problem today. I was notified of the voicemail and I checked it. Erased the voicemail and the notification still remained. For the life of me i couldn't get it to go away. I tried to dismiss it like 20 times and nothing...finally I had to call my own phone from work leave a test voicemail and check it again. Erased it again and it went away.

Try this:- phone>menu>options>services. You should see an array of listings including "Voice Mail and Text Messaging".
Highlight this and then >get settings.
You should have a number in the 'Text messages service center' box.
If you don't - it's a quick call to your provider.

Hope it can help you out!
Let me know if it doesn't.
Wondering, did you perform a hard reset to see if that fixes the problem?
Why do you want to receive a text message when you get a voicemail? The device supports the protocol that delivers a 'spool' icon to the phone when a vociemeial is waitign to be received. This icon is directly linked to the voicemail, meanign that it cannot be manually deleted by the phone user. When you have listened to the voicemail, the icon disappears. Great! That is as it should be. I am aware that not all networks use this systme but i have never understood why not. It is the most reliable method of knowign that you have unheard vociemails.
I have very occasionally had the problem that the icon wouldnt disappear after listenign to the voicemail. I found that if i rang the voicemail again, that often cleared the icon. Failing that, if a new voicemail comes in & is then listened to, that will generally clear the icon at last.
I used to use a network that didnt support this icon, & so i had to rely on either the phine ringing me to tell me that i had a vociemail (if i can;t answer the original call, how on earth can i answer anither call to tell me that i have a voicemial!!) or getting a text message. The problems with the text message method of notification is that (i) i have to opne & read the SMS to discover that it isnt really a text, but a voicemail, and (ii) if i delete this sms but then get interupted before i call my voicemail, then i no longer have a reminder to check my vociemail and (iii) if i listen to the vociemail before delteign the sms and then get interupted before deletign the SMS, i still have an sms tellign me that i have unheard vociemail, even though i have already listened to it!
For all these reasons, i have always thought the best method is the spearte notification 'spool' icon, as i can immeidately see that i have voicemail, as opposed to unread sms & can just press the icon on the home page to dial my voicemail.
If anyone prefers the alternative methods, please explain how they are better than this.
If you are on Orange in the UK, the numbers in the "Voice Mail and Text Messaging" menu should be:
SMS Centre: +447973100973
Voicemail: +447973100123
BTW I'm still using the Magician (Orange SPV M500), but i asume that the Hermes/TyTN works the same way.
Does anyone know when Orange will brign out the Hermes? I heard they were brandign it as M3100.

I've never seen that spool icon before, where would it be located? As far as I know, my operator does only support text messages notification :-(
I checked the settings; SMS Centre and Voicemail are configured as they should be, and I even changed them to something else and then back to the correct settings just to be sure. Everything else concerning text messages works, so I guess the settings are correct.
If I put the phone near my computer's speakers when a text message about a new voice mail should come in, I hear the "mobile blues" in the speaker, so I'd say the support specialist was telling me the truth when she said a trace showed that not only was the message being sent out, but that my phone even acknowledged reception.
I'm somehow stuck... but thanks for your help. Guess it's either start hunting for registry settings, or start hoping for a new ROM release
There are some strange things with the latest ROM that HTC produces.. ..I now about a Prohet problem that send an SMS multiple times, or even recieves it multiple times..
Will keep my eyes open for a solution for your problem!
Did you try the Hard Reset option?
It seems like the same problem I had on my SPV C600 when I wanted to receive an vCard.. ..the phone would light up but that was it.. ..strange phenomenon
It may only be Orange that support this icon, but is a VERY useful feature & has been around for many years. I know that Vodafone & O2 in the UK do not have it, but i thoght that T-Mobile do. I dont understand why they dont all implement this feature. I wouldnt use a network that didnt use it!
The 'spool' icon looks a little like: o_o (it represents a tape reccorder!)

Thanks for your help. Hard Reset is a last resort option - and I can't really see that this would be a solution, since the device is brand new and the feature never worked in the first place. I get about 3-4 voice mails per day, so I should have received them from the start. I just didn't notice they were missing until a day later - guess I was too preoccupied drooling all over the device :wink:
I have the same problem with my brand new TyTN and it seems that we're not alone. It definitely is a ROM bug.
I already reported the problem to HTC and hope we'll have a solution within days.
Hi guys,
Same problem with my new v1605 TyTN. Spent 4 calls now to Vodafone support and each time they tell me they can see the SMS being sent and that it is acknowledged by the device. However, I never receive any notification of the text message. If I switch the voicemail to use call-and-deliver it phones me within seconds of a voicemail being left.
I tried hard resets, vodafone tried resetting my voicemail - all to no avail.
So - am glad to hear others have this and think it is ROM related. Hope there is a fix soon...
Rich
Am tempted to call vodafone back and let them know....
I *did* call Vodafone to tell them and after some waiting I was told that the tekkies knew of the fault but the manufacturer had not given a fix date yet. They say that once the fix becomes available it will either be sent over air to the device (I find this hard to believe) or a download will become available through their website.
R
I have to say that it works fine with mine. I use the 242 version not 121 and with text and notify it works exactly as it should. Text and spool symbol arrive straight away and go when they should do.
ROM Version 120.161.3
Rom Date 06/06/06
Radio Version 1.03.06.00
Protocol Version 32.36.7010.01W
What is the 242 version, how do I switch from the 121 and what are the implications, if any?
R
EDIT - went to vodafone.net to sign up for this - got as far as 'Your security code will arrive as a text message' and of course - this never arrived. Must be some problem with service originated SMS messages to this handset....
I had the same problem with the Voicemail notification and have found this somewhere in the internet. I have tried it and it works for me.
HKEY_Current_USER\System\State\Messages\vmail\Line1\Unread\Count
the value is more than 1
Change the DWord value from more than 1 to 0 and the problem just disappeared.
Try it and see if it works for you.
Good luck!
Mine was already set to 0 Thanks anyway...
Still waiting for a fix....

On the O2 network you can change from Voicemail notification by SMS Text to the onscreen Spool / Tape icon by ringing the VM system on 901 and selecting the Mailbox Settings (option 4 I think) then selecting "onscreen notification" instead of "notification by Text" - option 3
Hope this helps.

Great, it works for me too!
I've been having a problem with my Fuze randomly not being able to receive text messages or calls.
Sometimes when people call, they say it rings twice and goes to voice mail. All the while, I never hear anything or get a notification. This happened once after I texted someone to call me when they get a chance. They tried 3 times and then texted me back to say that they were getting sent to voice mail. I didn't get notification for either until after I called this person myself 20 minutes later. Right when the call connected, I got notification of a new text message.
Another time, somebody was calling me for 3 days. I didn't know he was trying to reach me until he finally left a voice mail and I got the notification for that (no missed call notifications).
I called AT&T and their tech support did some tests (called my phone) but since it isn't reproducible 100% of the time, they couldn't offer any explanation.
This isn't a bars/signal issue either as this is occurring in the same spot where my Tilt would always receive calls fine.
Has anyone else seen this?
I had the exact same problem with my Sprint Touch Pro & ended my contract early & switched to at&t. Hopefully it's not a fundamental hardware problem.

Did you get a Fuze when you switched? Has that worked better for you? I'm still within my 30 days, so I'm debating exchanging it or just returning it and giving up.
I'm having the same problem. I did a quick search and found this;
This AT&T Forum Post
I tried the workaround and haven't had a chance to really test it yet though. I also noticed a few other settings in there that might have accounted for it.
One selection inside the phone settings had to do with whether calls went to voicemail when you're "Unavailable" or "Busy." I'm not familiar enough with the phone to know when it might tag me as either one so I unchecked both and I'm going to recreate my missed calls this morning.
Someone called after the phone had been sitting on my desk all night so I thought maybe it thought I was "Unavailable" due to inactivity (I dunno, I'm winging it) so I'm letting it idle for a few hours and getting a call later to see what happens.
Incidentally I have the exact same problem, no call coming in, but then I get the voicemail message after I try calling someone.
Unless I'm misunderstanding your point, "Unavailable" just means that your phone is switched off or out of signal, and "Busy" means you are already in a call. It's nothing to do with the behaviour or features of the phone.
Cheers,
Steve.
Yeah, I'm wondering if the phone is becoming "Unavailable" for some other reason than me being out of range. I have full bars in the house and that's where this all happened.
I've noticed, too, that I didn't get any email (I have it set to check every hour, even hit send/receive after someone told me they sent me something and it still didn't find it until I sent a second email to myself from another address)
Again, I don't know much about phones but it almost seems like the phone has bars but drops off the network for accepting calls/messages until you do something to activate the system again... or something. I dunno, just speculating.
Last week I went in and exchanged my Fuze for a new one since it was still within the 30 days. Up until tonight, I thought the problem was fixed. I was chatting with my wife over IM and she told me that she tried to call but that it just went to voicemail. I asked her to call back and leave a voicemail to see if it would notify me. I also asked her to send me a text. I didn't get notification for either. I checked my data connection by starting up Opera and going to a few sites. So I know that I had a verifiable connection to the network. I called my voicemail and checked the message I knew that she had left. Only after I made the call did I get notifications for the text messages I had missed. I never got any notification for the voicemail or missed calls.
Unfortunately, it seems this is a problem that isn't related to individual hardware as this is my 2nd phone with the same problem. I've also replaced my SIM card since a salesperson at an AT&T store suggested that it might help. I'm running the stock AT&T ROM minus the bloat, so it's not a custom ROM issue either. At this point, I'm not sure what I should do.
The only other thing I can think of that makes me unique is that I currently reside in Washington state but my number is one that I had ported from California. Is there anything about you're (skyau) situation that makes you unique?
Well the same thing happened again tonight. I received text messages 10 minutes late and I didn't get a voicemail notification until I initiated a call. As much as this sucks, I'm hoping it will stay this consistent so that I can have tech support replicate the problem and then try and fix it.
You may have a problem with your phone number. I'd try changing it.
Have you had experience with a problem like this? Is the phone number really the issue?
If that's what the problem actually is, I'm willing to get a new number. But I don't want to change it just to check and see if that fixes it.
same problem! Really pissing me off I just lost a important job because of this issue a few moments ago! Is everyone running a stock rom? I tested a few, now back to stock no apps nothing trying to find this gremlin WTF!
I'm running stock ROM without the bloat.
I exchanged my Fuze (I'm now on my 3rd) on Saturday and changed my phone number yesterday. I'm waiting to see if the issue happens again. If it does, I'll probably do stock ROM, all the bloat, no apps. If there are still problems, I'll probably try different ROMs.
I was able to get AT&T tech support on the line when the problem was occurring luckily. We went through his battery of tests and he verified that there was a problem. It would seem that the phone forgets/loses it's connection to the towers/network. Notifications (calls, texts, voicemails) aren't received until after the phone remembers/reconnects to the network. It remembers/reconnects when you initiate a call or send a text (essentially require the phone to use the network).
The tech told me that as far as he could tell, it was a hardware issue and that I should exchange my phone. So I'm on number 3 now and hoping for the best. I changed my number because I've been in a different state for 2 years and I had no ties to previous area code. So I figured now was as good a time as any to get a full fresh start (phone/number/SIM).
That sucks about losing the job.
Bump, I just realized a few moments ago that my phone rings once and then it says missed call, i always assumed they called me and then hung up after one ring in case i was in class or i was busy so that i could call them back. this is not the case? Also a few cases a call will drop every now a then... is this due to the radio rom i flashed? typical symptoms of a incompatible radio for a specific location? I'm using the .25.35 blackstone radio in ithaca, ny.
Having the same issue. Phone is asleep, then alerts me to a VM. Missed call doesn't show up in missed call list.
Really pissing me off and I think is responsible for my issues with Slide2Answer somehow.
The only time I have missed calls is because of MSVC. If someone calls and it is private or unknown, it will not ring. If it is somebody in my phone book or who doesn't have a private number, the phone will ring.
So I turned MSVC off and the private callers and the unknown callers will ring in.
it happens to me sometimes as well sometimes the d pad area will flash but i cant answer and it wont appear on screen then it wont say missed call.
sometimes if i try to hit the dial button it will also drop connection and instantly pick it up again
annoying but not a huge problem for me
and of course not on stock rom
Has Microsoft (or anyone else, for that matter) ever published a book, whitepaper, or anything else that actually explains how the various components of WM5/6 actually "work" in a real PDA phone?
I've seen various scattered documents at MSDN that tell how to write applications for phones running WM5/6, but I've never been able to find anything that coherently explains how a PDA phone running WM5/6 actually HANDLES incoming/outgoing phone calls -- the apps and DLLs involved, points where you can wedge your own handlers into the event chain, etc.
I guess what I'm really looking for right now is some guidance about where to even LOOK for that info... the official library/object name(s), the proper phrases to google for, etc. I have a hunch that what I'm looking for is NOT in the MSDN documentation tree for WM6 Professional PDA Phones, and is hidden somewhere else in the hierarchy... but finding anything at MSDN feels like searching for a needle in a haystack unless you already know exactly what you're looking for and what it's officially called ;-)
For what it's worth, I want to write my own replacement handler(s) for voicemail notifications. I can't stand the way WM6 stupidly makes me swat away the notification that I have voicemail, and decline to listen to it, then swat away a second notification that I have a missed call before FINALLY letting me know whose call I missed (and by extension, who left the voicemail message). I want to write a handler that shows something like:
Missed Calls:
Joe Smith @ 3 minutes ago (italics = left voicemail)
Jenna Ho @ 2:27am
Matt Johnson @ yesterday 11:52pm
Matt Johnson @ yesterday 10:23PM
on the screen instead.
Also, I use my cell phone as my "real" phone, and have an AT&T cordless phone that pairs with it via bluetooth. Unfortunately, it doesn't notify me of voicemail or received SMS messages, and I can easily go for HOURS without noticing (say, if I'm outside when someone calls, and they leave a voicemail message... until I physically happen to wake up the phone and look at the display, I'll never even know someone called). So... I want to build a circuit using a BlueSMIRF bluetooth-uart module and a microcontroller that toggles an input on my home automation/burglar alarm system (triggering a voice announcement over the loudspeakers), and have my handler app on the phone connect to it and trigger that notification every few minutes until I notice. I also wouldn't mind being able to make the phone go crazy vibrating in response to a received sms/voicemail message, so if I'm somewhere like a noisy nightclub wearing loose jeans and don't notice, it will keep vibrating and making noise until I do.
Hi all,
I wondered if anyone is using Hullomail and having problems with the alerts? For some reason the app isn't giving me any kind of alert when I receive a new voicemail (visual or sound). I am presuming (as I do not get a lot of voicemail) that over time the memory manager is closing the app and as such do not get the alerts (or possibly the app not restarting automatically after a phone reboot). Would this sound about right?
Is there any fix for it other than to get alerts sent to email (I already do this but would definately be nice to get the alerts to flash up on the phone.
If there is no fix is there another visual voicemail available in the UK with a more reliable notification system. I need to know when I am receiving voicemail without having to log-in to the system to check.
Cheers,
Michael
I use it, i just have the alerts sent to email since that plus the missed call alert normally tells me what I need to know.
I would like to see a HulloMail Counter widget though, like the email/messaging ones with the numbers overlaid on the top. That would be useful.
Have you tried emailing HulloMail support? I messed up my account and had a really good experience - they got straight back to me to tell me they were looking into it (proper human reply), and then again when it was sorted, late on Christmas Eve!
I am almost positive a better solution would be Google Voice. Transposed VM to email or use the Google Voice App. Much better integration and zero problems.
Hey OnePlus fam,
I just thought I would put this out as PSA for anyone on Verizon and having issues with SMS or MMS, as there is little information out there on this for our specific phones.
If you are unable to send or receive any text messages it is most like that the "CDMA-Less" feature needs to be activated.
You can call Verizon and ask them to enable "CDMA-Less" to your account.
Hope this helps
I had to get a new sim card that fixed my problem
Here are also a few links too; the first two are for a 6T but to concept still applies.

Had the same issue.
Called Verizon and asked them to enable this device as CDMA-less.
Been working perfect since.
Same here. I inserted my Verizon sim in the international version. Data at 50Mbps, Voice, Visual Voicemail and outgoing text messages worked. If it doesn't work for you, make sure you are using slot 1. It may matter. If you have a very old sim, you might need a new one.
I called Verizon and carefully explained that incoming sms was not functional as this was a next generation phone for a world where Verizon turns off their CDMA at the end of 2019 and SMS is routed over LTE. I instructed him to make sure "CDMA-less" was available both in the billing account and the network account. After a bit of digging he found the provisioning settings. Seconds after the phone was provisioned, sms started flooding in the stock message app. Also make sure IMS Basic Visual Voicemail is on your account if VM is giving you trouble. I use VZW Message+ (Verizon Messages) for sms as I can text from a PC also and it will restore previous sms.
By definition the phone uses VOLTE so there is no setting for HD Voice in the phone. That feature is required on your Verizon account but you would have to be switching from an ancient phone not to already have that. I cannot locate any option for Wifi calling and it does not work in airplane mode. I have a google voice number which allows Wifi calling. Interestingly it errors when the phone is in airplane mode but works when cell service is on. It reports "Wifi Call" and appears to use the stock dialer when initiated from the Voice app. Somehow Voice is even more tightly integrated with the stock dialer now than just trapping and routing international calls. This is a bug of sorts as my Moto phone on 8.0 could call in airplane mode with wifi on.
Google Duo appears to be integrated in the dialer but I haven't tried with my wife's Pixel to see if I can switch to Duo while on a regular voice call.
Bootloader unlock was simple: Tap Build # 6x, Developer Options - OEM unlocking, adb reboot recovery, fastboot oem unlock [This erases the phone]
The 7 Pro is an amazing device! Truly the most amazing. I'm really excited. The phone is super super slippery and a drop magnet. It does come with a TPU case.
I'm going to sell my kid's mint 5T and upgrade him too!
BT sucks worse than the Moto phone but I think that is an Android thing as my wife's pixel as issues to with her car. Contacts not syncing and calls not going through while connected to BT. Just have to do work arounds when I have some time.
Hoping video is fixed for the wide camera. They are amazing; but then, I'm coming from a Moto phone which has the worst cameras. Sony knows what they are doing.
Sorry to wake an old thread but did not want to start a new one.
I have verizon and have cdma-less provisioning done already. Have HD voice on the account as well. SMS works fine but I can only send MMS not receive them.
Ive tried moving sim card to other slot, tried reboot, tried factory reset, tried different apps...nothing.
The only time MMS fully works is when I am in safe mode. Anyone have any ideas on what it could be?
Thank you

Permissions were all good, sms/mms permission is in one.
I tried verizon app, MMS works, dont really like the app though, and the customization didnt help me like it enough to keep it.
Super weird that verizon messages work but not the stock app or the Mood SMS app.

I had to call Verizon 2 or 3 times for them to get it right
I downloaded a couple other SMS apps and they all work fine. So leads me to believe its just something weird with the stock app and with Mood SMS. I will switch to QKSMS for now and requested assistance from Mood SMS so they could take a look. Thanks all.
I'm going to guess MMS didn't work with that app while you were on wifi? Some apps don't know how to route MMS data properly when there both data and wifi available.
It's an option that has to be enabled on the account for Verizon customers, it's the cdma-less option. It took me a couple representatives til one of knew what I was talking about lol
I think his issue is slightly different as he can recieve sms but not mms and it varies on the app he's using.

No that I already checked. I still have not figured out why I cannot receive MMS on the stock app or on mood SMS. Mood had not replied to my email. I switched to qksms and have no issues anymore.
So ya if anyone else runs into something like I did, try different SMS apps
Yup, I learned this very quickly when I got the OnePlus 6t. Just getting them to understand that the phone was certified on VZW. Then 4 techs before one knew what to do. I think they now can address quickly even over chat.

It's an option that has to be enabled on the account for Verizon customers, it's the cdma-less option. It took me a couple representatives til one of knew what I was talking about lol

If I get Verizon prepaid will they be able to do this? I had Verizon prepaid once in the past and customer service was much worse than regular Verizon wireless. I am pretty sure that mvnos can't do it but I'm hoping Verizon prepaid can.

I'm not sure
Yeah, there's a lot more to this than enabling CDMA-less. Before about a month ago data/sms/MMS wasn't working on Android 10 based custom roms and MMS still doesn't work unless you use Messages+.
I get both fine I just have issues with them being received after the phone goes idle for a while. My issues are small stupid crap mile messenger not closing with home button all the time and and Gboard sometimes won't type into the field I'm in
