These days I’m on vacation using a pre-paid connection. I actaved a data connection on it and started getting these usage summary notifications every few seconds (e.g: Data charge is xx.xx, your available balance is yy.yy, valid until dd/mm/yy). Its really annoying because if I keep the phone locked for like an hour I am presented with 50 odd such messages that I have to press OK before being able to use the phone . When I called the technical support, I was told that it is a phone feature usually called “After call summary” or “call summary”, that can be turned off from the phone itself. Since they don’t carry any android devices he couldn’t help me where to find it. I looked around myself, but couldn’t find anything . Can someone help me with this ? Thanks.
Guess no one knows about this feature or how to disable it?
some one help me with this too..
Hi. I don't think it's a device feature. And if it's a "call summary" then it shouldn't inform about data plan. Try searching for a disabling code on your operator's website.
I have a "call summary" enabled - it pops up after a call, and I can disable/enable it only with a USSD code defined by operator.
Remove Call Summary Screen on Verizon Galaxy 8
I was getting an annoying call summary screen on my Galaxy 8s. It appeared to have the green android messaging icon in the call summary and splash screen. I use the Verizon massaging app. I therefore disabled the android messaging app and the issue disappeared. If you have another android, see if you can replace the android messaging app prior to disabling it.
Is anyone else getting "False Positives" from Touchless Control? I've been getting several per day where I may be in conversation with someone and perhaps I say "OK" as part of the conversation but Touchless Control thinks its been given a command. Especially annoying when it proceeds to "butt dial" someone in my contacts.
Retrain it in a quiet room. I also select confirm before dialing.
Yes, I had the same problem on my new GSM unlocked one, was not a problem on my other one.
It activated even when I wasn't speaking several times.
I retrained it and has been fine since.
It happens...not a big deal if you select confirm before dialing....as Steve-x said.

No way to add or remove Quick Settings tiles.... Voice Mail notifications force you to Visual Voice Mail ($$) with no way to change it to *86 and three steps to clear the damn notification.
And don't even get me started about the trip back to the 90's with voice OR data.
Customer service rep says, "This phone doesn't do VoLTE"
Me, "Umm, *ever*? Or just until it's setup?"
Long pause, "...I don't know"
So ridiculous. I was really excited about getting this phone, but without root to at least put back all (any) of the standard Android features that even most VZW phones have, I'm going to end up returning this thing and going back to my S4.
What a waste. This had such potential but it's been ruined once again by VZW and their sick need to drain every penny out of their customers.
If I've missed something obvious about anything above, feel free to correct me. I have no trouble eating my words if I can get some of these really annoying things corrected.

Press and hold 1 to access your voicemail if you don't wanna use VVM. And yes no voice+data does suck..but it is what it is...and yes..most of the VZW reps at Cust service are morons Lol I work for the Verizon Indirect Side so I know very well lol anything else??

Give "YouMail" a shot for your voicemail. I love it. No more dialing to hear messages...
And yes. Verizon is very annoying. Gotta pay for hotspot if you have unlimited data. Even then they only let you use 2gb over the hotspot a month. Love the phone...just praying for root or unlocked bootloader to put the icing on the cake

Google voice for visual voicemail. Volte fix is incoming. Android doesn't natively have editable quick settings tiles as i know of.

I think this is a little over dramatic. I hardly think that these issues ruin the phone.
I know it should work out of the box, but the beauty of android is that there is more than one option. If you dont like the default voicmail use somthing like Google voice. You talk about a trip back to the 90s. I would say using default VZW voicemail falls in this category.
The data and phone issue is dumb, but it is confirmed they will be fixing it. They will also be enabling VoLTE at the same time. Im pretty sure it will be one of the first devices with VoLTE support.
Customizable tiles is not a stock android feature. Only custom ROMs have this at the moment. Other maufacturers might have added this, im not sure if TouchWiz allows it. As far as im concerned I would rather be missing this feature than dealing with God awful TouchWiz.
Visual Voice Mail opt out
One of the first things I did while setting up my phone was to go into Apps and disable all Verizon apps. When I dialed *86 to set up my voice mailbox I went through the set up procedure and then hung up. After I hung up I received the notification for Visual Voice Mail. I tapped the notification, but when it asked me to Continue on the set up screen I hit the Home button. Then I pulled down the notification bar, it read "tap here to continue Visual Voice Mail setup". Instead I hit the X that clears all my notifications. Now my voice mailbox is set up and I didn't have to sign up for Visual Voice Mail. When I get a voicemail in my notifications it goes to *86. Hope this helps. Also, as far as Talk and Surf and VoLTE, all reviews I've read plus the Day 1 update we received, have indicated we will have that capability by the end of the year. I can wait a month for that.
I found out last night from Verizon that they won't sell this phone in Alaska until the update for VoLTE happens (something to do with roaming charges otherwise. Didn't make any sense to me but I didn't want to sit and argue with them when it wouldn't change the fact they didn't have any Turbos). Which as others have said is in the next month or two. As for visual voicemail, I use PF Voicemail on my Nexus 5 and while the UI is dated, it works well (on AT&T/Straight Talk). As for editing quick settings, that will be a stock feature of Lollipop, so again, hopefully in a two to three months the Turbo will have that feature too.
Sounds like most of your issues are/will be fixable. It just depends on if you're willing to wait. By the time I can buy this phone in Alaska hopefully these issues plus root will be achieved. Or else maybe an AT&T variant will be announced by then.

That's an immense help! Thanks so much! BTW, love the nym; one of my favorite cartoons from when I was a kid...☺
I've had my Urbane for a day and notice that if I reject a call on the watch, it attempts to send the call to my AT&T voicemail - which I don't use. When I reject the call on my phone, it goes to Google Voice - which is where I want it to go.
Anyone noticed this and/or have a fix?
(Using LG G3 w/Lollipop)
Thanks!
PROBLEM SOLVED.
This all started within 24 hours of getting the watch and started when I rejected a call from the watch so I assumed it was the watch.
I tried to adjust settings in my phone but the forwarding options were greyed out. So, I broke down and called AT&T. It was a setting on their end.
The agent said he needed to add "Google voice mail box number to Busy in CF & LCS" call forwarding.
All fixed. Hope that helps someone else.
So, how do I get the phone to make I call when I activate OK Google and say, Call "Jim" etc.
Presently, as I am not using the SIM and disabled the cellular network it will tell me I need to turn off airplane mode. I though I had it figured out when I set it to forward calls to my phone, however I think that is intended for when both have a SIM. It seems like a massive oversight if this is not possible, given the fact that the Style does not have the HR monitor and Fit. The two reasons, other than the spinning selector, I went with this model over the style.
I have cellular turned off, and if I say "ring Fred", it immediately calls Fred through my tethered smartphone.
If there are multiple phone numbers attached to a contact, it then does not dial straightaway, but asks which number to dial first.
Whether I use the phrase "ring" or "call" it does not matter, works with both phrases.
I know this is an old thread but did you figure out how to initiate a phone call on the tethered phone without the sound coming through the watch?...I want to say"ok Google call Bill" and have my phone call Bill and not hear it through my watch. If I disable call audio on my phone then the watch says check blutooth connection...this seems rediculous that Mt Sony SW3 can easily intiate my phone to call any contact through ok Google but my lg watch sport wants to blare my conversation from my wrist.
Is the LG call app installed from the PS
