Until Marshmallow is out I find it is nice to be able to use AT&T Visual Voicemail. I installed the APK I took from my old G4 and it works beautifully. Give it a try if you have AT&T
After I called my voicemail it took a few minutes (maybe 5) before it activated but it worked
Great job Josh!
Just curious -- what's the difference between this one and the official ATT on on the Play Store?

This one is the one that comes standard on AT&T phones and I like the interface better. I think it works better overall unless the changed the one in the store since I tried it last. Compare the two and see which one you prefer. Much better UI IMO, the one in the play store looks terrible.
It looks different for sure. Some of the text is hard to read.
I'll try it out but the playstore version has been great.

This app is for U-verse or Unified Messaging, not straight up AT&T Wireless. There's another app called "AT&T Messages" that combines Text, VM and calls and are viewable as a thread by contact.

So i discovered the october ota update actually locked the Safesearch filtering option in the youtube app (it's all grayed out). Are there any ways to fix this besides just searching the vids thru the m.youtube site? It annoys me, cuz i can't find my favorite music video cuz it has 'Dickhead ' in the title!

Might try and uninstall it and get one from another build. Shocked others havent noticed. I dont use it much myself so never noticed. Just checked the one on froyo and its not locked.
Yep, AT&T blocked this. See below for the app from a Fascinate dump. I removed the AT&T one, pushed this using ADB. It's unblocked.
Enjoy!
Thanks for that definitely worked to downgrade the youtube app, but did i lose the HQ button with the old version?

Never noticed this but yes. I never use the app anyway. You could always flash Froyo and use a browser with Flash.

Also I've seen this being an issue on HTC Evo on Sprint, and also one of Motorola's Droids on Verizon so is/was every carrier doing this? It's pretty pathetic. I mean I get the idea of SafeSearch for kids but to have that turned on for everyone? Oh no I might see a video with a swear word! I'm not a child, and the "Being a Dickhead's cool" song is hardly offensive anyway. PS funny song by the way.
1.6.20(E) seems to be having this in every version. I guess the E stands for "emasculated". None of the other Youtube versions seem have the (E).

When I ask Corporate America to become my parent or protect me from evil, you'll be sure to see it in the headlines. Until then, I have two great parents, who have taught me right from wrong and how to act in public and etc.. I don't need some third party to protect me from the evils of the internet.
Give me my uncensored internet! And thanks for the fix Cappysw10!
So I went back to 1.6.20(emasculated) edition and will use the work around to search youtube's mobile site instead of through the app. But what I'm planning to do is try to talk to Samsung about this because I want to see the response. The HTC people have been blaming Sprint about this. But I heard it was fixed in Froyo... so if we can only get that..
What I think actually happened is the guys that wrote the app somehow disabled the adjustment. It could actually be a bug, instead of willful censorship like we are assuming. I've had programs in windows that have grayed menu settings based on some faulty registry settings.
There appears to be an update for the YouTube app in the market that fixes this now. It does allow you to alter the SafeSearch parameters. Check it out.
um can you be more specific about the update? like the full name so i can find it

Yes, it's been working fine for me on every custom rom so far.
A. Make sure your SIM Card is in the device when you d/l the application.
B. Call T-Mobile and have them manually add Visual Voicemail to your account. If it is already added to the account, have them refresh its activation.
Let me know how this works out for you.

I just used YouMail from the market for VVM. Much better, imo.
Just curious as to why you guys would use T-Mobile VVM or other third party VVM software when there is Google Voice? Different features?

Yes, Nexus S doesn't come with T-Mobile Visual Voicemail preloaded. It is in the market, just search Visual Voicemail.

I've never made a comparison. I use it simply because it was preloaded on my first smartphone and it's never given me the problems some people seem to complain about, so I've never felt compelled to switch. I may migrate to Google Voice in the near future just to try it out, since I've migrated pretty much my entire life to Google anyway. Might as well throw them my voicemail, too.
Google = The Borg
I have been searching the threads and I can't seem to find the answer. I apologize if I missed it. Market won't let me download att visual voicemail. It says something about being incompatible with my device. I have a Vivid running the new HoliRaider rom. Is this a known issue? Is there something I'm doing wrong?
I believe all the custom rom's based off the Telstra ROM's aren't wanting to play nice with AT&T VVM.

I had issues with my VVM when the phone was new straight out of the box. Turns out that the issue came from when the representative did my upgrade. He screwed something up with the provision for VVM, well actually voicemail in general, and AT&T had to forward me all the way to Tier 2 tech support to fix it. Took 2 days, but finally problem solved.

So Verizon just straight up released an update that added a feature that doesn't work with another feature. What the actual eff balls batman..
Advanced calling does not work with Caller ID, you have to choose one or the other which is complete bull crap.
Am I missing something because this is huge...

It breaks my heart that some of their bloatware broke with the rollout of one of their own features.
No really. I am weeping.
At any rate, Verizon didn't write the app, they just slapped their name on it and contracted to have it built. The app dev that they hired is the one who pushed it and probably didn't know any better.
I cannot tell you how many times I've compiled something, get ready to send it to the client and they are like, "oh, I found something else wrong" an hour after you release an update.
Found that out too. Lame. I installed true caller from Google play. Seems to do the same thing.

I've been using a Note 7 port on my Note 4 and have really enjoyed the integrated Hiya into the phone dialer. Of course VZW has disabled it for their own. Hiya has a stand alone app but I was curious if there's a way to take the unlocked phone app and install it on our VZW note 8. Thanks.

I didn't know there was any sort of integration in the past with hiya. Do you have an APK for that or was your phone rooted? That might be the reason. I don't know how the Standalone app works and if you have to make hiya the dialer of choice for it to work properly. If it's anything like mr. number I'd be over it
Don't think you can install the phone APK since it is probably a system app. So short of flashing it or rooting (both impossible right now) I don't think you can get it. Hiya's standalone app is crap. Obtrusive, nags a bit, not integrated into rest of the system. One of the reasons I got unlocked for my T-Mobile plan is to have proper caller ID without T-Mobile shoving their Name ID down my throat at $3.99/mo

That's what I figured, it being a system app so no way to install from another version. Thank you for the reply. Smart going unlocked! If it wasn't for the carrier trade in value I'd have done the same. Enjoy!

If you're referring to the Hiya caller id/spam feature, it''s not just the phone app & there's a chance you may not even need it. It's enabled by cscfeature.

Without root, not possible. Verizon specifically blocks this feature cause they offer their own paid subscription caller ID service.

Reason why I'm still on T-Mobile. Verizon doesn't allow for GSM devices, aka unlocked bootloader phones. Really bothers my how even T-Mobile sells locked bootloader phones. Seems like Samsung and service providers don't care though since we don't represent the majority of consumers.
Here ya go guys, if you root then use this cscfeatures file, the caller ID and spam protection GETS ACTIVATED ALONG WITH EVERY OTHER FREE SAMSUNG FEATURE VERIZON DISABLED. Caller ID, search places, Samsung cloud, as well as a few others. Scroll through the thread and use the one Baggery77 modified for Verizon. It's a few pages in.

I did a dirty flash of the rom with that csc code and worked it worked with no issue. After a clean install, the option was still in setting andturned on, but it only says Identifiying caller information without giving a result on numbers it would normally work on. Any ideas?
