Voicemail Notification Problem
I finally got up the nerve to try a new ROM on my HTC Hero (CDMA) and installed the latest stable version of CM7 using the Rom Manger app. Everything worked great; however, anytime I reboot or power off/on I recieve a voicemail notification...but there is no voicemail. Is there a way to correct this?
Thanks to all who do this type of work. As a noob, I was very nervous about rooting and updating to a new ROM but this forum helped me overcome my fear.

Is the message from 9016? If so, try blacklisting that number (nearly every sms app but the stock lets you do this) to see if you get voicemail notifications without the sms.
No, the blocking of 9016 doesn't fix it. It just says that there is a voicemail (2 actually) waiting for you and when you call it is nothing. So, it's just kind of lying to you.
I've been using my N6 for 1.5 weeks now, coming over from a Samsung Galaxy S3. I'm on Verizon.
Not sure what the occasion is today, but I just received 2 calls this morning from telemarketers/scammers. On my S3, blocking these callers was as simple as long-pressing the number on the stock phone app and clicking "add to reject list". It was a great feature and didn't require me to get any 3rd party apps. I just tried to do that on my N6, and there doesn't seem any way to do this. Long pressing the numbers doesn't do anything, and I don't see anything in the settings either. Has anyone had any luck with this?
I want my freaking conference call management options back! When will they update this crap? It's sad that an "upgraded" phone has worse features than the old one!
What features.

Like, the ability to end a specific call or mute a specific call. The options went away when I "upgraded" from a Galaxy S5 to a Galaxy Note 4.

I think you need to test a bit more. Those features still in my phone.

Then you have a different phone...I use the conference call feature on my phone 3-5 times a day. I do not have an option to end a single call or mute a single call. I can add calls, sure, but I cannot MANAGE the conference call. I used to do it with no problems on my old Galaxy S5.

Play around with the phone I was able to more test call while other call heard me. I would post video but don't need my contacts numbers being out their. I use this for work so I know it is all in. Now if ur running a custom rom ask dev if he removed feature
I am running a normal, unrooted, Galaxy Note 4 straight from T-Mobile. I can place a call, then add another call to make it a conference, I can even add at least 4 calls (I haven't needed to try more than that). I cannot choose to end one of the calls or mute one once the conference call has been started. Is the option hidden somewhere? I have tried clicking just about everything during the call, and have gone through EVERY option in the settings and can't find anything about conference calling. There are a few hits on Google that show the steps for conference calls, and one actually shows pictures of managing one. But it looks just like the S5 management looked like, and I don't have the big button on screen that I used to have to manage the conference calls. Believe me, I'm not a newbie to conference calls. I have done 3-5 per day for the last several YEARS. This is my 4th Galaxy product, and it is the first one I've had issues with.
Maybe reach out to samsung.
"READ Tmobile acknowledge Native message app is corrupt. Don't update Says TMobile
It seems that if you read online on T-Mobile forms in other areas people are not receiving all their text messages if not 10 to 50% of them are missing people are finding this out by logging into T-Mobile digits and same messages they never got through the native messaging app after the 8.0 update.
I noticed this when I did not receive messages for a good while until I put my SIM card into a Galaxy S8 and 20 to 30 messages popped up that were pre conversation topics from the past days before after talking to T-Mobile and digits support team they are being told to replace the device one time and Advising customer to keep the Nougat software until a fix ia found or until further notice this issue seems to be tied to the Z2 only and Oreo update just wanted to throw this out there as a pre warning the alternative solution the tech told me is that you can use a different messaging app but who's to say you'll ever know if you're not getting all your messages .
It evidently seems to be affecting incoming messages alternatively at your own choice maybe Nougat could be flashed back "Not sure" but this is a real life issue for this phone . If you want to be certain and surprised login to T-Mobile digits activate it and see what messages that you have not got
Hope this information is appreciated.

What about it ? Wether on wifi calling or not this is a message issue acknowledged and very pronounced In many ways . It's simple to see with a few trial and error tests regardless of wifi
Or LTE Data
Seeing all your messages show up on TMO digits comparing them to messages you've got or never got .....putting a SIM card in a different phone and seeing multiple messages pop up that have still been trying to push through that are tied to specific time line conversations. TMobile literally already acknowledges this it's just nobody is realizing it because they're not expecting messages that they're actually missing from people.
Feel free to test it if you would like have multiple people text you wait for it to come through not saying it affects everybody T-Mobile did tell me that they already have a ticket out for it and it's software related to this particular phone.
On top of the SMS of all things is one of the most critical uses of a phone .
Just trying to shed light on a rising issue that most would never be aware of .
Because all Android phones ship with settings set to wifi preferred wich leads to dropped calls and unsent messages after setting up a home wifi. And if you have no sim installed your obviously using wifi calling wich is most definitely not as dependable as volte.

I'll look into that....but if your not on wifi calling "connected" to a wifi network you would still be using volte right ? This is happening to people conversating anywhere Mobily in a vehicle not on wifi. Messages for instance with my brother whereas I never got a reply in which I would have came through after I put my SIM in my s8.
People are seeing ungotten messages in TMobile digits.
I don't really care i was just looking out for the community here with a potential problem hindering, and T-Mobile tech support made acknowledgement about it . I highly doubt a community across United States all at once is screwing up by keeping WiFi preferred on.
You're only going to be using WiFi calling if you're connected to an actual at work under that settings menu otherwise you would be using cellular by default just like it says to choose below that
You're only going to use Wifi calling if you're connected to a WiFi network otherwise you're going to use cellular default which is the same as being on cellular by default correct me if I'm wrong

Multiple replied posts from z2 users
How this has not made it to xda is beyond me but it is real situation
It's really not a good feeling to really not know all the messages you should be getting that you're not especially the ones that you're not expecting the scenario is playing out just like it shows in these support forums and with myself.
It's like not "Some messages are blocked in a limbo status never reaching the target device
Like myself you could stick a SIM card potentially in another phone and see stuff that pops up that was related to conversations long ago that you never got replied too.
I haven't had much of a problem with T-Mobile to T-Mobile network SMS but many other people I know that use other carriers I never got replied to until I stuck my SIM card into a different phone of mine.
It's a janky situation and if TMobile is already acknowledge this and told to replace phones one time then evidently the issue has gotten out to the people that needs to I just don't know how nobody here on XDA knows about this .
I have tried multiple text apps and nothing seems to be different I even thought about editing access point but usually that only solves MMS problems
This issue was already addressed with a fix to boot by xda. I had the issue my self. With no issues after I updated to oreo.

I tried this method and it did not work, after the Oreo update I tried again but kept having issues. Decided to Force stop the CPS app and install the Google Carrier services app and this worked. Don't remember where I heard/read about Google carrier services. BTW using Googles messages app now and seem to be receiving all messages.
I discovered this a few weeks ago then installed google messages and everything works now

I have already experienced this issue. It's NOT related to wifi calling at all. I tested it with wifi calling on and with it off, same results.
What worked for me to FIX it was to clear storage and clear cache on the "native" app. You won't lose messages already on the device but you should backup with Carbonite sms first to be safe. Once I wiped storage and cache for the app I started receiving messages again normally.
I found out I was missing messages by installing digits. It's all working now but I'm keeping digits temporarily just to be safe.

Wait so your saying this is a fix wether on Oreo or nougat and digits is the whole reason why .
And the native message app just need to clear cache and data in settings app

I deleted and deactivated digits completely. After I had it completely removed from my account, I rebooted and changed to Android Messages and everything has been fine since October.
Are the issues with this phone sorted yet? I was looking to purchase the T-Mobile variant of this phone but have read about issues such as not receiving texts (huge problem), VoLTE not working with Galaxy S7s, and WiFi connection issues. If they are not fixed, can they at least be avoided by refusing the Oreo update? I would like to avoid rooting my phone just to fix a defect and would only consider using a 3rd party messaging app if it fixed the problem without introducing other problems.
I have my phone choices currently narrow down to the Z2 Force, LG G6, and Galaxy S7 (all are currently in the $400 range). I was leaning towards the Z2 since it's the most powerful, but the issues I'm reading about seem quite severe.
After a little more research I see 2 patches were released for the Z2F after the Android 8.0 update.
https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-35970
I found a Reddit thread (https://www.reddit.com/r/Moto_Z/comments/7zxcpo/tmobile_moto_z2_force_ocx271_update/) where some people mentioned it fixed the SMS notification and Galaxy S7 VoLTE issues. I didn't see anything anything discussing the Bluetooth/WiFi issues or more importanly, the SMS not being received issue (the topic of this thread). Can anyone comment if those were fixed?

The latest 2 Oreo updates have fixed those problems, and they didn't affect everyone.

Hi there, I just got my pie update last night and now my call recorder app is no longer working. The app I am using is by SKVALEX. It had worked flawlessly until the pie update last night and I guess I have two questions. Question 1 is are there any apps that do good quality call recording picking up both ends of the call? And if not does anyone know if it will ever be possible after this point? Google and Samsung and many other phone companies seem to be restricting things more and more which isn't right when you pay a lot of money for a phone and it's only good for a year. Anyway if somebody has an answer for me it would be greatly appreciated.
Here is a link to the app I had been using, I'm going to attempt to write the developer and see what he says as well.

Not on Pie without root
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-9/help/workaround-call-recording-root-t3895793
As for the elimination, announced in advance, about Pie in giving permissions to call recorders to work, always using even now the ACR app that I used with Oreo, and it still works even if the only issue having now is a lower volume of the voice of my interlocutor and not with my voice using the mic. In settings of the app, automatic source for recording and volume of recording level raised to plus 20 dB. No root required.
