It's called Google Voice. Full integration! Sprint, FTW!

Yes, but Google Voice charges to call the US Virgin Islands, which is free to call otherwise. #1 gripe with GVoice.

Would you look at that!
This has been an issue since GVoice's conception, and Google KNOWS about this! I find it to be unacceptable.

I agree, not sure why this has been an on going issue for all these years.

I sideloaded the AT&T visual voicemail apk on my U Ultra. Try this apk for the Sprint visual voicemail apk.

Why would they kill their own app? Especially without an alternative? Are they actually going to start pushing GVoice?

Thanks, didn't work though.
When i installed my SIM card, i let it install Verizon apps, so now I get the notification but it force closes. Chatted with HTC support and they said to have Verizon hard-reset my voice mailbox, which I did. Just waiting to see if that did the trick...

Which device?

I TRIED calling Sprint about this today. The very nice lady with a very heavy accent tried signing me up for "premium voicemail" repeatedly. She kept on insisting I needed to download SVVM from the Play Store. Eventually I just hung up on her.

I'm having an issue setting up AT&T visual voicemail as well. I downloaded the app from the Play Store, ran it and got the "something is not right" message. I tried it several times, to no avail.

APNs fully editable through QuickShortcutMaker App

Stumbled upon this earlier today... download the QuickShortcutMaker app from the playstore.
Open it up and do a search for TEST. The last option to come up should be com.test.LTEFunctionality. Expand that, and click on the LTE test underneath of it. Then click TRY in the app. Scroll down to LTE APN Setting. The APNs are fully editable, and survive multiple reboots. I was able to add DUN, as well as proxy settings from adblock. wooo whoo! Apologies if this has been metioned elsewhere, but I haven't seen it.
Which line did you edit to turn on hotspot? Thanks!
Finally thank you!
default,mms,dun

Would also like to know. Also when I search "TEST" the last option isn't what you posted. Mine is Google Play Games (com.google.android.gms etc etc... )
This works perfectly for me. I searched for LTE and found the right one. Thanks!
Got to this part, what do I edit so that Sprint doesn't know if I'm using phone data or hotspot data? I'm on a 10 gig hotspot plan and need just a little bit more.

Thank you. I made the changes. I hope it works. We had a power failure last week and I ran 2 devices from my phone's LTE. I used 2.65 GB of the 10 allotted.

On the Note5 try searching for "ROAM" or "APN", I vaguely remember seeing some roaming/APN options on a Sprint version.
Try all the activities... YMMV

10Gigs/month? I go through that in 2 days, sometimes pushing over a 100gigs a month on LTE prepaid for only 50 bucks a month.
In 2017 you can do better than that, not having to dread the friggin' data limits
Just check around, there are plenty of nationwide prepaid offerings, and with a little tweaking you can do it too.
You're the best!
Has anybody confirmed this still works after the recent QGL update?

I'm not really sure how to check it, but it seems to be working for me. Reason being, in have a 10g free with my unlimited plan, but I suppose I need to run that out first?

dialer codes not working

I've the sm-n986u1 and on vzw and the only code I got to work is the csc changer.
The *#0011# and the others do not work for me. Any reason to why?

Have you tired using Google phone dialer? If you don't want to side load, you can get the official release by signing up for beta.

As I said Verizon and u1 firmware disable dialer codes. They do not work. Why are you gonna suggest something else. You need to be rooted and enable the hidden menus first. This has been ongoing for many years now.

I found a workaround... Using the *#272*imei# method and chosing the last option... Then select another csc.

Question Change what RCS server messages connects to?

Hi everyone,
As some of you have probably seen if you live here in the USA carriers have moved to use their own RCS servers instead of jibe. The issue is they do not communicate with each other so now I basically send SMS to everyone instead of chat. Does anyone know how to force the messages app to connect to the jibe servers? I have tried uninstalling updates for messages and installing a vanilla version. You get the unskinned messages app which is nice but still tries to connect to att.
Unfortunately there is no way except to install the U1 firmware. I did it. It works wonders.

Sorry I have been out of this for awhile. Would I just flash the international snapdragon firmware through Odin? Will it trip Knox? No need to do anything else? Still work fine with ATT?

Won't trip Knox. A few things are different. Video Calling is Duo only and visual voicemail is only through the app, no direct link in the phone app. Wifi Calling and everything else works fine. Phone seems quicker and battery lasts longer in my testing.

Thanks for all the help! I use duo only anyway. My battery last all day with room time to spare so if it's even better thats a plus. All this just to not use ATT terrible RCS servers. SMH.
Yep, seems to be the only fix as of now. Maybe AT&T will get their heads out their asses and fix it eventually.

Did you flash the CSC file too? The phone should have been wiped and started fresh. Dirty flashes from U to U1 isn't recommended because it won't overwrite a lot of the stuff.

Hey everyone, I installed the U1 firmware and got the Jibe mobile confirmed and rcs back up with Google Messages from APKmirror but now the color of RCS messages is a weird shade of blue instead of the dark blue I had on my previous phone. is this something i'm doing wrong somehow? Samsung messages drove me crazy with their color scheme and I needed messages back to normal but now the off color is a little upsetting.
I can't find anything on it. Thanks

I figured it out, I ended up uninstalling app and clearing cache and data and reinstalling the apk.
Wait, does the U1 firmware also fix the SIM Card Manager utility to properly select which SIM is used for data, calls, and texts?
It sounds like this is what I need to install.
EDIT: Nope.
