Problem: No sound/visual for Voicemail Alerts [Sprint] - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When someone leaves a voicemail, the alert icon will show up in the upper left hand corner of the phone, but will not play the sound you select in voicemail settings and the phone led will not alert you. The only way I have found to receive an alert is set Google Voice to email me a notification when a voicemail is left, thus my phone alerts me of a new email.
Does anyone have a fix for this??

[Q] Which app to notify voice messages ?

I have tried a few notification apps, like LedMeKnow ... and there is a thing I can't find: voice message notification. Most apps do missed calls; issue is that there are technically missed calls the phone is not aware of: when it's out of network. Some providers send SMS in this case. When the other party leaves a message, you get a message icon.
All I want is a LED + vibration reminder when this icon is on. And I can't find any app doing this.

Google Voice and notifications sounds (none)

For some reason, I don’t get any notification sounds when I receive messages via Google voice. This is my only text service.
I have checked all the settings and even the settings within the GV app. The volume is up all the way.
Yes my speakers work perfectly, but I’m just not notified with a sound when I get a message.
What’s wrong?
Rebump. Quickly getting buried.

Call Alerts missing from my S6

Hey all,
I have a G920F and I noticed that the call alerts menu is missing. I looked under Sounds and Notifications menu and in the Phone (Dialler) app. After a google search I learned that many are having the same issue. So now I cannot set the minute beep or the vibrate when pickup, hangup notification and all the rest.
Is there any way I can get them back? What were Samsung thinking?
Thank you kindly.

Do not disturb issue?

Hmm so I set up do not disturb to only allow my favourite contacts to come through. However some contacts not on my favourite list are still showing me when the calls come through. How to set up do not disturb so that I do not see the calls which are not on my favourite list please?
Can anyone help me please. I have gone into settings and do not disturb and block all visual disturbances but when someone calls the phone app still shows on the screen. On mashmellow when I set do not disturb and anyone called me i could only see the notification on the notification bar so it didn't actually disturb me. On this phone it's not actually working can anyone advise please? Thanks.

S10e weird notification with Whatsapp call

So I've been having this problem for a while now. Basically, when someone calls me on Whatsapp, I can hear ringtone but turning locksreen shows nothing. Same thing when I unlock the phone, say for example I am on the home screen, I can hear ringtone, but no pops up notification to tell that a Whatsapp call is taking place.
So, this means: 1) if I'm at the lockscreen and get Whatsapp call, I would have no way to answer or end call. 2) if I unlock and use the phone and the Whatsapp calls come, I also dont know if it is Whatsapp and also cannot swipe down from notification and accept/reject call.
So, I would need to physically open Whatsapp and then it would show a call is coming through and so i can accept/reject call.
Reinstalling whatsapp fixed this problem. However, I believe it is only temporary. My settings: AOD off, Edge Lightning off and does not send notification for Whatsapp.
Does anyone else experience similar problem? Strangely, Whatsapp call is the only thing that causes problem.
