Need help with installing AT&T's Visual Voicemail app from the Samsung Skyrocket. Put the apk file in systems/app directory and did a restart ..nothing. Then tried putting the apk file on the sdcard and used app installer from the market and that didn't work. acts as if the installation is working but at the end says "app not installed". any ideas ..

I would love to see this work - hope a developer will take up the cause.
I could send the AT&T Visual Voicemail apk file to anyone that could make it happen. I have used it on the Vivid and it is awesome.

Ok here is the file below. I will buy someone a dinner ..$50.00 that can make this apk voicemail file load on my note. Currently using Vivid, Skyrocket and 4S and need this app on my Note.
Anyone have any luck installing this app?
You mean you people don't use Google Voice to handle your voicmail?
Didn't work for me got a "Application not installed" message, sorry

I tried Google voice for months and finally discarded it. Google's servers kept going down at critical times and I missed important text and voice messages as well as phone calls. People could not reach me. I now use Hullo Mail for voice messages and ATT for telephone and messaging services.
Nobody got this working yet?
This would be awesome on the NOTE
I am with ya.. We need to find someone that can get it working on the Note also I have a question.. On your note.. If you go the brightness and turn it up all the way.. Then go to Live Backgrounds and choose the Windmills (Weather) and have it rnning.. Look by the sky and by the mills ands see if you can see lines in it on the screen.. I noticed this with mine and I want to know if it is just mine or everyones.. Also why does mine slow down after a few days and it seems I have to reimage it to get it back up and running fast..

Make a phone/service without Visual Voicemail? I can't imagine who should be fired for releasing this phone, the new Samsung Note, without V V... If I can't find a quick resolution, then, both of my units are going back to Best Buy! The SkyRocket worked perfect. Promises were that the Note would be everything the SkyRocket was/is and even better - not true without Visual Voice Mail!

Not a good solution for business folks. Maybe ok for casual users who can afford to miss a message. But wait a minute, why are we discussing this, Apple set the benchmark years ago... what's the big deal? It should work and we should not have to use third party no reliable solutions! Samsung, ATT - get this working NOW!

Anybody that hasn't found it yet, follow these instructions. Working for me on GT-N7000 with CriskeloROM V2.

Hi all, this is the very first thread i start here in this forum, so go easy on me if i do something wrong.
Thing is, i hate zooming in and out in email/website, and since we have the luxury of high screen resolution in the galaxy note, i really want to make used of it. first of all is the email. the Gmail app is clearly not designed for such high resolution phone in the first place. but using this "phone" app on Galaxy Note, and still zooming in and out seems stupid to me. Is it possible for us to use the Gmail in Tablet in out Galaxy Note?
Thanks Guys
Yes it is possible. ..use cm9 mod change the dpi to say 200 and you ll get tablet gmail interface

Does it have to be a CM9 rom rooted G Note? Cause I have a CFroot G Note and I was wondering if I could do it?

Yes it needs to be some kind of ICS build (whether CM9 or otherwise). The reason being is that ICS includes aspects of the Honeycomb API which Gingerbread does not. These tablet elements are activated in ICS when the user sets the DPI below 200 (you need root to do this), and thus the phone behaves more like a tablet than a phone in its appearance.
This is how you will get the tablet style Gmail layout.
Dang, I wanna get the CM9. But, No camera is a deal breaker cause this is my point and shoot

Just Install
1. XposedInstaller_2.1.2 which is the framework
2. XposedAppSettings021_1361139539_2146 which will let you change the app specif dpi
3. Gmail 4.2.1 ( last version will become tablet mode with the following settings dpi :213 screen dpi: 600x1024 font scale :100 xLarge
good luck

Try changing DPI to 220/240. for that you need a custom ROM with DPI change functionality.
Just as the title implies. So far this seems to be a great phone. Picked up the 128GB White. Pre-ordered. Shipped today, but, without ROOT I'll lose some of my favorite apps, and I'm not sure that I'll be able to transfer everything, like MMS. For some reason Kies doesn't like my phone, or maybe I've hit some soft limit trying to backup 35K SMS/MMS. I have an S4, skipped the S5

Kies never worked with app data on my S4, but I used Titanium for apps anyway. With 20GB of music and video on my SD card and around 1200 SMS, it took about an hour and a half. My call logs did transfer, though.
some one should start a thread for a bounty for root. Or find geohot lol. We could use a towel root like root or exploit.

I just want root to get rid of the all the damn blotware. I disabled most of them but they still take up memory. And there is still about 5 apps the phone wont let me disable.
I also would like to change the screen DPI so that i have 5 apps across in the app drawer

you don't have to change the screen DPI to do this. if you mean you want 5 apps across the bottom instead of 4, simply drag a new shortcut into the bar and it will resize itself to hold 5 icons. if you're talking about the grid itself, and changing from 4x4 to 4x5 or 5x5, you can do that by holding your finger on one of the small squares (that tells you which tab you're on). it will bring up a custom menu that allows you to change the screen grid settings.
as for wanting root, i'm looking for a wi-fi tethering option. this was built into the custom ROM i had on my S3, and i'm hoping someone can do the same on the S6!

You will have to excuse my ignorance i'm not a big android user, just got my new s6 edge att and i have only rooted my tablet in the past to remove bloat. Can you tell me why the att model phones take so long to root?
cheers
Who knows. It only started with the S5. Before then we had zero day roots. It really stinks, because if any phone could use it the edge could. It's highly under utilized, the lack of apps you can add in ultra power saving mode is silly. FB, but no email? The bloat, etc.
I don't have much background on this, but how is it that the Tmobile and Sprint version are already rooted so quickly? I'll have to refresh my memory on the whole root process and roms but why is it that these att phones are also not rooted at quickly?
As the title said, the phone doesn't give me the choice of always or just once, there's only a menu and I can click the app that automatically becomes the "default" app... It sucks as I need to save a pdf from Outlook to One Drive to then open it in write pdf but it won't since one drive is the default app and I don't get the choice...
How do I fix that??
Experiencing the same.. Any fix? And the menu button [(long-press) back button] sometimes doesn't work well.

I may be wrong here, but this may be a feature of Lolipop. In other words, we're not given the choice each time like its previous iterations...

I don't think you can "fix" it but you can undo the default by going to settings then applications then going into default applications and clearing that apps default.
I hate this "feature" depending on what I am doing I always want to use different apps to open files. Come on Samsung (or Google) fix this. I think it is Samsung as I had a G4 and had the option on my G4
Kinda fixed it by using Better Open With from the play store...

I got the 5.1.1 s6 edge update just this morning and it didnt give me a choice, just chose a permanent option just like on note 5 that i got this afternoon. You can always reset defaults, but once you open a link in an app with a specific app, dont you want to keep that choice for the future? I don't mind the change
This is frustrating! I'm going to check out that app. I'm commenting to be a part of this thread for future fixes.
The problem in note 5 . I have note 4 with lollipop 5.1.1 and has no problem
I hate the disappearance of (just once and always) option that i used frequently, hope to fix it in next update
You can go into default apps and clear it. Then choose your app when you open that file. Or, use ES File Explorer to open as. There's no problem with the phone. There cut out unnecessary crap, which I think is better. That screen would always come up and piss people off. Haha.

There's no fix for this, at least for now, I talked with Samsung Customer support they did like that to "please their customers" (I don't understand); it's not a lollipop issue, other models like core prime and others with 5.1.1 still ask always or just once, it's really frustrating, but even more frustrating is to find people out there that is happy with this change, ''unnecessary crap'' they call it, since they do not know how to use their phones looks like they want everybody else to suffer, it's so simple if you do not like it! just click ALWAYS and leave the rest of the people that use their phones for more than just calls, chat and listen to music to keep using our amazing JUST ONCE and let us be happy!!!!, what else we will have to take from Samsung?
NO SD CARD SWAP
NO WATER PROOF
NO BATTERY SWAP
COPYCAT DESIGN
EAR PHONES PLUG AT THE BOTTOM
AND NOW THEY TOOK OUR OPTION TO CHOOSE!!!!
this company it's going backwards or what?
this happened on my note 4 as well with 5.1.1.
the change was completely unnecessary, as people could just click "always" if they wanted. why remove the option?
but for those of us who open diff links in diff apps depending on the context. we are screwed?
has anyone found a fix?
Don't be selfish

Don't call unnecessary crap to such a smart option just because you only use your cellphone just for chat and Facebook navigation, it's very simple, it's just two options and by simply clicking ALWAYS!!! you can be happy! and leave the rest of us, those who really use our cellphones as smart devices enjoy our freedom to CHOSE!!! and let us be happy with our choice that we miss so much ''JUST ONCE''.

You shouldn't give useless advises, I would if I could, first I have to wait up to 6 months for another swap and second I can't sell it for the price that I paid for the phone which it's dropping very quickly.
Luckily it's not all over and this app will fill the emptiness in the heart of those who miss the liberty of CHOOSING, the app "Better Open With" will make your life easier, it worked for me and don't ask for any information.

Thanks for this app. Just noticed this same issue on my S7 and sometimes I use different browsers for search. So having to go in and clear out the default each time wouldnt have been cool. I like how the app has a countdown and pause as well. Great suggestion.
