NumberSync S3 on AT&T

I'm unable to get it setup on my Note4. I get the incredibly useful message "Backend error" from the AT&T site after I enter the sync code on their site.
Is this a temporary issue you think, or is it just the usual incompetence of an inept software developer who can't be bothered to give meaningful results to help narrow down the cause of an error?
Is it working for everyone else?

Yep, getting the same error message. Hope this is temporary!

I was having a similar issue. On my Gear S3 when trying to get the sync code, it kept giving an error message. Finally after 9:30 central time I was able to generate the code and get it synced. I think the system was overloaded with all the at&t pre-orders being delivered yesterday.

Anyone have AT&T S3 but linking to S7E 935F International phone? Keep trying to set up Numbersync but it connects to my wife's 935A. It won't see my phone. I am running Hydra Rom but the watch is connected with Bluetooth no problem.

For numbersync to be setup, you have to have a username for myatt for that exact phone. Then it will allow you to setup numbersync if that phone is HD voice capable.

I set it up on my Axon 7 without any problems.

Just tried again, same error message

Me too.. Pretty infuriating. I don't know if it's temporary or something wrong with my setup/login/config/primary account/whatever because of an inept app developer on their end.

According to AT&T International S7E (Exynos) is not compatible with LTE Frontier watch on AT&T due to no HD voice? Can use Bluetooth, but not the Numbersync. I'm pretty PO'd right now as that was why I bought it.

Anybody getting this to work yet?

I have not been able to get it to work. I am using an unlocked tmobile note 4. When I called I was told it was because it was not an at&t phone. What if I change the build prop to 910A from 910T? Would that be enough for it to work? Dont want to try and mess things up.

Hi I'm new to this forum. Like OP, I also have a Note 4 ATT LTE and had the same Numbersync error. Here is how I resolved my issue after extensive research:
1) Make sure to enable HD Voice on your phone if supported (for Note 4: Settings->More networks->Mobile networks->Mobile data->check Enhanced LTE Services (mine was unchecked)
2) Before even attempting to sync via Numbersync, make sure that your cell phone number is set as primary in My ATT account. I didn't have a primary number set, so I tried making the Gear S3's number primary (when I was prompted to add one) and it didn't work properly. So I learned it's essential your PHONE (the one you intend to connect with S3) is set as primary, NOT another phone/tablet/wearable line in your account.
3) After all the initial errors and hassles thereafter, I just reset the S3 after following my above instructions and the sync was seamless and I was up and running.
Hope this helps...it certainly worked for me!

Is your phone stock? Rooted? Custom rom? AT&T branded phone?

Yes! That worked, thank you!

I too have a note 4 and had no problems setting mine up with the Frontier today. So far I am loving it. It was the only one that my local store had gotten in stock. Now just trying to find out how to get the second hand to start working in the deduct face with the red second hand.

The red pointer is for the chronograph function. It does not move unless you tap it to start the chrono. Bad design in my opinion.

Soo no one here might have an iPhone they were able to get numbersync to work on with the leaked iOS app?

Has anyone got Numbersync to work on International S7E 935F?

I have number sync working with my Nexus 6P, spent about an hour in the AT&T store working with the salesperson that sold me my Frontier. He was under the belief that it was tied to IMEI numbers so he supposedly cloned my wife's IMEI number to my 6P which didn't work. I told him that I read that HD Voice/VoLTE had to be enabled and because I had a Nexus 6P that was the problem. So he called support and asked them to enable HD Voice on my line. While he was doing that I was googling, found this thread: https://forums.att.com/t5/Device-Features/Nexus-6P-No-HD-Voice-and-Wifi-Calling/td-p/4346076 and followed this guide:
Navigate to Settings > More > Cellular Networks and enable the toggle switch for "Enhanced" 4G LTE Mode. However, if the toggle is missing then follow the steps provided below:
Launch the Dialer app on your phone, and dial*#*#4636#*#*.
Choose Phone information.
Enable or select VoLTE Provisioned Flag.
Restart the phone.
Go to Settings " More " Cellular networks and toggle the switch for Enhanced 4G LTE Mode, and the HD Voice calling feature should now be activated on your device running Android 5.1 and above.

I enabled the VoLTE option, restarted my phone and sure enough when I went back into the MyATT webpage I was now offered the ability to enter in a sync code and it worked. He was never able to get support to enable HD Voice on their end. Going back into the setting it shows that VoLTE isn't active, I have no HD Voice option or feature in the Enhanced 4G LTE options at all but my number is indeed synced. I left my phone at home, walked the dogs and made 2 phone calls and the number did go over as my cell number.
Now the other thing he mentioned that should work is to use an approved AT&T phone that has HD Voice capabilities enabled. Then if I were to put my SIM in that phone, wait for the MyATT webpage to update showing that this other phone was tied to my number, then perform the number sync at this point it should also work, once it's enabled it won't go away according to the ATT rep. I didn't need to do that so I can't confirm but it sounds reasonable.

Xfinity Mobile

Hello all, I just activated my Samsung S8+ on Xfinity Mobile this past Tuesday and I still have not received the May security update. I was wondering if anyone read anything about how they are going to push the monthly updates? I have been searching Google but of course because it is so new there is a lack of information.

It hasn't been released yet.

I got mine last week, I've been very happy with it.
I am curious to see how quick they are on patching, considering the phone has almost zero bloat it shouldn't take long once they are available.

Does your VoLTE work? I have the unlocked version flashed to xfinity and I can't find the VoLTE setting.

VOLTE Works for me on Xfinity Mobile.
Settings>Connections>Mobile Networks
The toggle is there.
I am in same boat as others. I left AT&T. So refreshing to be TouchWiz base without all the major carrier crap/mods.

So you can use data while on a call WITHOUT WiFi being on? Mine shows 3G all the time with WiFi off. I was thinking it was a SIM compatibility issue between the LG X Power and S8+. My SIM from my Note5 wouldn't work in my S8+ on Sprint. Had to have a different one.

Wasn't actually sure it was working.
Called voicemail and did a web search for confirmation.
Functioning correctly.
Is your "mobile network" set to Global? I have trouble if I switch to CDMA/LTE for some reason.

It's set to global. I have trouble getting LTE period. I can use Rom Control and force to LTE and web is OK. No calls though. Toggle is missing. Same thing, I can enable VoLTE with Rom Control and can see the toggle. NO voice calls though. Says out of service area. Maybe it's because the LG X Power doesn't support VoLTE and the account isn't provisioned for it. I put the SIM card back in the X Power and I can't get 4G on there now. A tier 2 tech was poking around my account yesterday. Don't know what he did. He hung up on my. LOL

I got mine about 2 weeks ago loving it so far.

APN settings appear correct. Compared that with the LG. My LG has a username and password though. I take them out and I have no data at all. The S8+ has data with the settings like yours. I can edit the APN settings on the LG where as they are locked on the S8+. Weird since this is an unlocked U1 phone. Had to flash the Xfinity firmware to get text to work though. Hopefully that didn't lock the device to Xfinity. The tier 2 tech wanted the IMEI from there S8+. I gave it to him and he said that was for the LG X Power. I had the S8+ box in front of me and even pulled it from the phone. Still said that it belonged to the LG. Then he hung up on me. Not a word since.

Hmmm, maybe he did you a favor actually.
I just flashed the U1 firmware to my Xfinity device and all the APN stuff is editable. Phone shows as a U1 model too. Everything is working great. I found everytjing in thr AT&T section of S8+.
Can you flash back to U1 firmware, pop the X mobile sim in (get the device all set up first before putting SIM in) and then do a manual search on service provider section of mobile connections? The tech may have locked that SIM to IMEI, but that's a good thing if you are wanting to use that SIM on S8, right?
Go in to network operators and pick top option (search networks) and let it search for a while. Then you should have a list like my second attachment. Oh and don't mind my lack of cell signal lol, I was jacking around with all of the editable options available now.
Be sure and set Bearer to Unspecified (with nothing else selected). Save before exiting. Added third pic to show I am on LTE+ on U1 firmware with X mobile SIM, but this SIM was always tied to this IMEI as it is Xfinity Purchased phone.

I went through most of that when it was on U1. Got data and and calling. Just couldn't send texts. Is VoLTE working with the U1 firmware for you?

Nope, trying to see if I can "activate" my phone but of course Xfinity Mobile activation site is down right now lol.

Did you ever get this going? I never did get 4G going on my LG X Power. The only way I could get it to work was to select LTE/GSM under mobile networks. Of course calls wouldn't work then. Exchanged them for the LG X Charge which supports VoLTE. I still can't get 4G. They said to use my old sim cards. I think I have a provisioning issue. Still waiting on tier 2 to call.

TMobile & MMS

Hi does anyone have a problem sending and receiving MMS on the international OP7 Pro in the default messaging app?

I haven't had any issues being on International for the past 5 days. But I'm also using Google Messages.
On T-Mobile

I actually have had issues with this. Not all the time, but it happened last night and a couple other times previously.
Using international version, Mint Mobile carrier (MVNO of Tmobile), on Google Messages.

Yeah very weird over wifi no problems. Sometimes I need to switch to Google messages and reboot phone to download them.

I'm not on international but have the TMobile variant and it sporadically will not send messages and I have to reattempt

Mine has been working well and the Chat feature is working too.
I have been switching back and forth from stock and google messages.

Either using a different app or using ADB to push the rcs package from the T-Mobile firmware to the international firmware.

What I did was send a couple pics with the stock app, that made the chat feature show up in options.
Then I switched to the google messages app and the chat option was in there. Turned it on and sent a couple pics there.
The option disappears but the feature stayed.

I don't, unfortunately. I was hoping someone still using the T-Mobile firmware with root would copy it and post it or hope someone knew how to extract it from the factory image.

Using the TMO sim I have had zero issues with MMS or SMS but on my US Mobile sim I am able to send and receive SMS but my video message come in as a picture and a separate audio file ....anyone else have that issue ?

I don't remember exactly what it's called but there is a system package with rcs in the name. It is the only one with rcs in the name.

It will not SIM lock your device but you will lose dual-SIM until you flash back to the international firmware.

Samsung visual voicemail for unlocked?

Am I wrong for believing there is a Samsung version of visual voicemail that can be used on the unlocked phones?
I would like to give it a spin but cannot find it.

use T-Moible voicemail if you're using on T-Mobile Network, or use YouMail app or Google Voice if you have one.

That was one of the problems I ran into using an unlocked phone on Verizon network a couple of years ago. Also, I was not able to get notifications for text, etc. After that, I swore off unlocked phones. But things may have changed since then, or you may find a work around. Good luck.

I just uninstalled TVV and will look to give YouMail a try.
However my question still remains, am I wrong to assume that there is a Samsung Visual Voicemail app that can be used. I swear I read something about how people hated the Tmobile version because they make you pay to transcribe the voicemail to text but the Samsung version did not.

Yes it has the Samsung one installed. It comes up as voicemail in the finder...it's not baked in to the dialer though which is super annoying.
If you want the at&t visual voicemail or other branded version the apk is out there and I can confirm does work on our phone the same issue is still present though regarding the missing icon from the dialer...
Xda hates my phone at the moment so I can't upload a picture but the image for the Samsung one looks just like the voicemail notification symbol.

It's available from the galaxy app store according to the app info. I definitely didn't download it and it wasn't on my last device.

was there ever a solution to this? on s20 G9880 and G9810 no visual voicemail apk, using on t-mo and att respectively

Two phones one number.

If there's a better place to post this let me know.
My brother recently got a new phone, the one plus 8. He also has a still working fine pixel 4. He wants to be able to get calls and texts on both, from texting or calling the same number. We are in Canada and tried using Google voice. But cant seem to get it working how he wants.

I dont see why it wouldn't be. It's basically call forwarding but he wants the calls to come to both phones. So he can have a work and home phone without having to change anything.

There are carriers that allow this like T-MOBILE with their digits app. I have a second line and basically I can use that line any device I want and as long as it's logged in it will ring on multiple devices at the same time. Also this isn't any different than an esim for a watch. Same concept.
