Marshmallow Visual Voicemail - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know it's supported by T-Mobile. I can't get it to work whatsoever. I'm not even getting notifications that I'm getting voicemail. When I check them every caller is unknown. I've always used Google voice on every phone. I flashed the factory image and set up my mailbox. Is there something im missing to get visual voicemail to work?

In the phone/dialer there should be a tab - you may have to toggle it on/off.

mine worked right away, didnt set anything up, it was just there

Can you elaborate on this?
I'm having trouble accessing Visual Voicemail as well, don't see the tab or toggle/options in the dialer.

I do not see this toggle, am I missing it in the Settings? I see General , Calls, Advanced. And digging through the sub menus doesn't yield anything that I can see.

Think I figured it out. I'm on 5.1.1! I got an update today... and I'm still on 5.1.1? How odd, thanks for the help.

That link is no longer working. I flashed my sister's HTC one for her but she's been going crazy about the VVM not being on it and won't stop badgering me about it. Any chance you could reupload this? She's currently on the Viper 3.1.? rom.
Thanks!

I agree I don't understand why anybody uses voicemail anymore just use Google Voice it's a lot easier and you can check your s*** on the computer too

SMS not working in Hangouts on Moto X?

I don't have an option to use SMS in Hangouts on my Moto X. Though the play store indicates I am on the latest version of hangouts because it does not give me the option to update, in fact my hangouts app indicates I am on version 1.2 instead of 2.0+.
Anybody have any ideas? Anybody else using SMS in hangouts on a Moto X?
Sent from my XT1053
I don't think the 2.0 version has hit the Play Store yet. You have to be on 2.0+ for the SMS integration.

So is the description in the play store simply wrong? It gives the change log for 2.0 which suggests to me 2.0 should be available. See screen shot below, taken just now with my stock T-Mobile Moto X.
Sent from my XT1053
Chances are they are doing a staged rollout. But if you don't have 2.0 on your phone, you won't have those features.
Anybody here with an X who CAN do SMS with hangouts?
Sent from my Nexus 7
I received 2.0 a few days ago. When you first launch it, it will ask if you want to import your SMS messages. After that it works fine for SMS, MMS, and Hangouts. It's a little confusing at first but you'll get used to it. If you have a hangouts conversation and an SMS conversation going on with the same person, they will appear as two separate threads. However, you can switch between them using the account selector at the top of either thread.

Yea the market description is wrong. Just look in themes and apps for the update version that allows SMS. For it to work on version you need version 2.0.122

I tried installing the Nexus 5 Hangouts APK and it didn't worked, threw an error each time I tried to send an SMS. After today's update from Play Store it's working fine.

T-Mobile Used Google Hangouts video yesterday and last 2 weeks, now doesn't work

I love the hangouts app on this phone, and I have an unlimited plan from T-Mobile. I just switched over from Verizon.
Anyhow, yesterday I was able to video chat in the hangouts app on mobile, but today it doesn't work. Switch to Wi-Fi, bam it magically works.
Are there any other Gflex users on T-Mobile that could test this please.

Root the beast then install xposed and wanam xposed. It's for touchwiz anyway there is an option under security-> enable hangouts over 3g
Give it a try it's google related and should work. I use also tinted status bar, circle battery, and burnt toast looks awesome! PM if you need the link!

Thanks for posting that info. I have root on my phone and the app says that Hangouts video chat is enabled, but it still doesn't work.
This is actually occurring on both mine and my wife's phone. She has the Note 3. We were both able to use the video calling feature as of the 25th while on LTE, but as of yesterday neither of us can. While on WI-FI it works fine.

I just tried this method also, but it didn't work either. It's the same as the other times, all I get is just the other parties Google+ profile picture. It says I am in a video hangout, but there is no sound/video.

It's definitely not phone specific. No love on my HTC One in HSPA+ or LTE. Nobody on Skype to see if it is Hangouts-specific.

You're having this issue also?
I just talked to T-Mobile tech support and opened a ticket with 3rd level engineering and should be getting a response within 3 days. Hopefully this gets fixed.

I tested with Skype over LTE. Works Fine.
Hangouts on my Nexus 5 also fails on LTE but not WiFi. Groove IP calling also does not work on LTE but no problem on WiFi (Google Voice).
I think it's isolated to T-Mobile and Google. Hopefully will be corrected soon
Same problem here with hangouts on my Note 3 and my wifes iphone 5s on tmo

Problem with SMS and Google voice default setting

I can't for the life of me figure out how to use Google Voice as my default SMS app. My Note 3 and every other phone I've used in the past few years has all had this as an option. I don't really want to use hangouts as it's just not really setup as a SMS app yet.
Anyone else have this issue or a possible solutions?

I've been searching around and it seems that this is an issue for all S5's no matter the carrier. I'm experiencing the same issue on my T-Mobile S5. It sucks because I can't get my Google Glass to send messages from Google Voice anymore.
Hopefully Samsung will fix this asap.

I don't have it either and just flashed the first official 4.4.2 to my note2 and it's not there either so maybe it's a change to the newer 4.4.2 firmwares.

Notification log?

Hi guys I need your help. I recently received a phone call which showed the caller's completed name. Well, I don't have that contact's name saved and once I clicked it disappeared. I have googled for a solution and seen a way but it doesn't work on the Note7 anymore. Long press empty space, widget, settings.... <----- There is no setting widget. Does anyone know how to recover this lost notification or a way to know the caller's name? Thanks in advanced.
Try looking in the app T-Mobile name id
