Visual Voice mailbox - Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers

On android 10 Visual Voicemail doesn't work for the gsm networks but works CDMA networks only. When I switch to Pixel 3XL runs android 9 it works on that version So it's clear that it is the issue of the coding of 10 but google support says it is the issue of the carrier and contact them. They can't understand what I am really trying to say. if it is the issue of the carrier then how it will work on android 9 ? even my one plus runs on a custom ROM can work this feature. A flagship phone like google doesn't work this thing ?
Anyway Guys please do report this issue and give a feedback about this issue. I have attached a working picture pixel 3Xl runs on android 9 [Build - PQ2A.190205.001 ]

Put this in Questions and Answers. You will get more attention there for this. (Also in curious too)

Phone app - settings - voicemail - visual voicemail.

I think it should appear as a tab at the bottom of the UI automatically, if your carrier/phone plan has it.

I contacted the carrier, it is pre-activated on every sim. Also they said they do support for phone that brought it from their inventory. But when I put the sim back to my old phone oneplus 6 running on custom rom Derpfest to check it is working or not and it is still working. when I turned on my phone the visual voicemail option came right away but its not working on pixel phones. So I think they have to do some coding to get this stuff on pixel phones. I have attached some screenshots of my previous phone running a custom rom. Please check it out. On a custom rom can work this feature it supposed to be working on pixel phones too right?

Looks like it is working. It would not show anything in voicemail tab of the phone app if it wasn't working. Like you would have to call your voicemail number and enter your pin to get your messages.

Here are some screenshots of phone settings menu.
If you are using a custom rom, talk to the developer.

I am on stock rom. I reported to the pixel team. Waiting for the response. Which rom are you using. Can you show the picture of dailer app

Are you on simple mobile? I have the same problem. It worked initially with my pixel 3 XL but then randomly stopped and I haven't got it back since. Upgrading the the 4XL I have the same issue. They even sent me a new SIM card but no luck. I can get it to work using a 3rd party app but it's not integrated into the diaper. For now I've resorted to using Google voice for my VM.

Two things.
First being that I use att and also do not have it integrated into the dialer. I have to use their app to get visual voicemail.
Second being that you put "integrated into the diaper" which is clearly a typo but made me laugh more than it should have.

Haha. God damn autocorrect. Yes I use diaper more than dialer these days thanks to my 1 year old twins. Even as I typed this it tried to correct it.
Regarding the visual voicemail - I'm thinking it's something Google has to change on their end since it was working before and works on the OnePlus as the OP posted.

I don't remember exactly but it was before the Q update. It randomly stopped working on my pixel 3 XL. I briefly got it back after clearing app data on the phone app back then but it went away again. Makes me think it's an app or server side issue.

App issue, if i switch back to my previous phone running custom rom its works. But t in pixel rom so its app issue. Please send a report to devs of the pixel

I have an AT&T Pixel 4 XL and I still can't get this damn feature to show up. I'm not rooted (can't because it's locked until it's paid off). Anyone know a way I can enable it without root?

There is no relation with root and visual voice mail. They have to do some coding to get it work. I already reported the issue. They said send the feedback. Do the same. That's the only to workout also contact pixel support regarding this. As far as i know it works only sprint and verizon only.

Brought a p3 xl running on Android 9 and on that phone visual voicemail is working. So the issue is with Os of 10. I contacted support and they couldn't understand what am saying. They blaims its the issue of carrier service. Please contact the support let them know you facing the issue

On android 10 Visual Voicemail doesn't work for the gsm networks but works CDMA networks only. When I switch to Pixel 3XL runs android 9 it works on that version So it's clear that it is the issue of the coding of 10 but google support says it is the issue of the carrier and contact them.

I'll give it a shot...
Coming from a Note 2, and I rely a lot on Google Now (aka Voice Search).
I was able to set up my Note 2 to launch Google Now by long pressing the menu key.
If there's a way to do this on the Note 3, I haven't found it yet. Anyone know a way? (For now, my workaround is to long press the home key to bring up task switcher and press the globe icon to launch Google Now.)
Question 2:
I used Internet Browser (had manually installed flash) on my Note 2. The version on my Note 2 had a "Labs" menu where you could turn on a circular floating menu feature to operate most browser functions by just sliding your thumb in from a screen edge. I got really fast with that and feel very inefficient in the browser without it.
My Note 3's Internet Browser app doesn't appear to have a "Labs" menu at all. Any secret way anyone knows to get that menu (or the floating circular thumb menu feature) back on this apparently newer version of the app? I know loading an older version of the app is probably out of the question without root.
Thanks for reading my stupid questions.
Despite these minor quibbles, I'm really loving this faster, brighter phone and its (in my opinion) vastly better camera.

I'm relatively new to Android. I had a few Kindle Fires and an S2 Skyrocket but didn't do anything much with either. After having an iPhone 5s and being underwhelmed, I switched to the Note 3 and love it. My problem is my battery life has been poor. The battery life was supposed to be awesome and I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong.
Here's what I do now.
-Keep screen as dim as it will go
-Have Juice Defender that switches WiFi and data off/on depending on what's being used
-Bluetooth & GPS off unless I need them
-Auto-Sync is off and I have data restriction on
-I periodically go into the running apps and stop what's useless to me (Games, Samsung Apps etc.)
I may be overreacting, but I heard this battery is great and it's going down fast by just web browsing. Is there anything I'm missing being new to Android and all? Thanks.
Have the pen button gestures from the note 2 been removed from the note 3? I miss the one for going home.

On Q3. Google updated maps and removed labs. Really pissed me off becuase I used the labs stuff. I actually think the newest version is worse than the desert version. Does that seem to be a way to add it back.

I'm currently with Sprint and thinking of switching over to AT&T (Sprint 4G/LTE signal sucks at my work location) and get a Note 3 (or MotoX, but most likely Note 3). I'm new to the whole GSM smartphone in US so I'm unclear on a few things, especially regarding Sim Lock and Bootloader lock on AT&T
Here's my questions:
Why bother locking Bootloader? The official words seem to be that the Carriers are worried about untested software running on their networks and could cause problems. However, people are mentioning that they can pay full retail price for a T-Mobile phone which is not bootloader locked and sim unlock it and use it on AT&T. If anyone can do that (if they want to pay for the phone in full) there WILL be untested software running on their network anyways.
Why bother locking the sim card? It's not like I can unlock my phone and cancel my contract and move to T-Mobile, I'll still get slap by a Early Termination Fee to pay off the subsidized portion of the phone and then some.
If I want to use my phone elsewhere in the world, I heard that the phone is Region Locked as well, and if I don't unlock the sim or use the region unlock apk, I can't use it outside of US. Are there any issue if I pay to remove the sim lock? e.g. will AT&T fine me or something if they finds out? (I currently don't have to deal w/ this problem because no one else in the world use CDMA, and I just get a cheapo dumb phone when I travel).
thanks

AT&T won't fine you if you unlock your device.. I'm pretty sure they would do it for you for a fee.
Ok, under s pen option. It says turning off pen detection when the pen is attached can save battery. What does that mean? What are they calling pen detection?
Also, I can not get burst mode to work while taking pictures. I assume it is press and hold like any other phone right?

To answer your first question your phone is always making sure (yes here come the jokes) you got the pen in it. But turning that off will save battery life. It will still detect when you take it out.

What kind of system language is available on this device? As in, menus, apps, etc. (not keyboard since keyboard can be downloaded through play store, etc.), all in a certain language. From my past experience with AT&T Samsung Galaxy S2 and S3 phone, there is no Chinese as a system language if I remember correctly and wondering if this still the same.

Turn on shamu's AT&T HD Voice

Ok, I got the Samsung Gear S2 watch which runs on 4g today thinking the Nexus 6 at least had HD Voice because the 5 did and you have to have it to connect to A&T's NumberSync or it wont work on 4g and its useless. Anyway, I got everything to work except I couldn't get it to connect to the NumberSync with the error "We are sorry. We cannot set up NumberSync because your device does not have HD Voice...." I called AT&T and they asked for my IMEI number and that will tell them and they said it must not have HD Voice. Is there some way I can get this enabled on this phone so I can use this?
Thanks!

and what does hd voice have to do with Volte??? Volte = voice over lte. without volte, lte is only a data line, with volte it is also a voice line.
Heck if I know I just said VoLTE and she said yes but the error said HD voice... Ill change the title

if you make a call on lte, and you have voice, then its on.
Im not sure if the phone has it. I keep reading Verizon version does but AT&T dont at the time. Here is someting else. I thought she said my phone was coming up as something else but the IMEI number I gave her was correct or the same as I read off.
if you go to the main settings, more, cellular network, turn on enhanced 4G LTE mode.

its the same phone on all the networks, but i guess it might not be capable on every network(depending on their methods). anyways, it has hd voice on tmobile as well, not just verizon.

You are correct that it is the same phone on all networks, hence why I said at&t won't acknowledge it as being HD voice capable[emoji2]

Whats weird is i dont have the option to turn it on in my phone settings and its an unlocked phone. The setting to turn it on/ off is there if i go to *#*#4636#*#* but the button is set to on and wont switch back and forth. There is supposed to be a nother setting under More/Cellular Networks/Preferred Network Type called extended and mine isnt there.

Does your phone company support VoLTE on this phone specifically?
The various Android 8 roms should support it if it works on stock. But many telcos check the specific model of the phone, and only enables it on the models that they have approved.

I'm on a AT&T MVNO (Red Pocket Mobile) so I don't know. But if you're talking about the backbone (AT&T) I still don't know because I believe my N6 was purchased from Google. I'm pretty sure AT&T branded N6's are approved.

Is your unlocked N8 provisioned for VZW?

I just got off the phone with VZW. My HD calling, video calling and visual voicemail isn't working. Not sure if the CSR was right, but she said there is an advance calling setting on the VZW N8 that I couldn't find on my unlocked Sammy N8. I have seen it before on my S8+ so I know What she is talking about.
I said maybe mine isn't provisioned correctly. She said she wasn't sure. I am going to call back tomorrow to speak with tech support.
You guys have that stuff working?

HD calling is using the phone while on the internet? My HD calling works fine.
I don't use video calling or visual voicemail.
I have an unlocked note 8 from Samsung and Verizon is my carrier.

No you're talking about 4G. HD voice & video uses LTE and is an advance calling option. I also don't have WiFi calling

I would go on Verizons account page and remove and readd the feature. Then reboot your phone to see if it works. I have unlocked N8 and Unlocked firmware running on my S8+ and the option is present

Im not talking about 4G, my phone is always on LTE wether Im on a phone call or not.
You don't have those features because you have unlocked software on your phone. The unlocked software loses carrier features. Once the Verizon software is released, you can flash the verizon software with Odin to get Verizon apps and features.
The difference between Verizon and Unlocked phones is the software.
This is crazy, Sammy said unlocked is fully compatible with VZW. Killing me!!

I think your best bet is to either find someone who is willing to swap with you their VZ variant with your Unlocked version. Or I would just change firmware to VZ version. Updato already has the VZ firmware, just flash away.

This HD voice, are you saying the call quality is horrible when talking to someone without this working? I have an Unlocked phone coming to me soon and I am also on Verizon.

It's not horrible, but I have come accustomed to HD voice clarity. So it really makes a difference to me.

I'll have to check this out. I very rarely use my phone to make phone calls so maybe it won't be a huge deal to me.

This was the specific reason why I went with the VZW variant. I had an unlocked Moto Z and I dl'd the NFL app. Didn't work.
VZW tech support said that its a locked app to phones from the carrier. Any unlocked phones lost this feature and others. SUCH A PAIN.
I had an unlocked pixel xl and everything worked fine.
This may help for people looking for video calling

I promise that I'm not trying to be rude here. But what did you guys think you were buying when you bought an unlocked phone? It's carrier unlocked. Which means it comes without carrier software. With that you may also lose some carrier specific features. But it also works with pretty much any carrier. So you can switch carriers and take your phone with you.
Personally, I never experienced a difference with HD calling. I also never used video calling. Wi-Fi calling is the only thing if kinda like to have back. I've seen some people say they've found ways to get it back on other phones. I'm not sure what those methods are.

Did you have your sim inserted when you first booted up your phone by chance? On the s8 I had this issue because I didn't have the sim in during first boot. Had to fact reset with sim card in place to get properly provisioned.

What do you mean by provisioned? And how did you get the visual voice mail app
?
I switched my Verizon line from my V20 over to my Unlocked Note8 yesterday afternoon and have no issues that really bother me. When I called the Verizon number to swap phones I asked about WiFi calling, VoLTE and HD calling and the representative told me all of these are enabled and should work properly even though the phone is Unlocked, we checked and we just couldn't find the WiFi calling setting in my device to see if it works. I have never used WiFi calling and really don't care about it, when I make a phone call everything sounds nice and crisp so I assume HD calling is working fine and VoLTE also works great. I did have 2 questions though...
1.) In the My Verizon app it keeps telling me I need a code to access my account? (see attached)
2.) When I get a voicemail, I have no notification. Is this because the "Visual Voicemail" app doesn't exist? Is there a workaround for this?
I used pf voicemail plus to replace my visual voice mail and that works fine

Video Calling Missing on Sprint

Yes, I searched the Sprint Note 8 forum. So, I have a buddy with a T-Mob Note 8. He tried to video call me. Nothing happened. So, I went looking for the N8 manual. If you get the manual from T-Mob or VZN, they show an icon of a video camera on the dialer screen, to the left of the call button. We lucky Sprint customers have our vm icon there. WTF?! Are we the onlyN8 owners that can't do video calls? Is this because we don't (yet) have Sprint's version of "VoLTE?" Do any of you who bought an unlocked N8, running on Sprint, have this problem? Thanks for any light you can shed on this problem.
I don't know but the more time I spend with a stock note I think I could do. Perhaps my first non rooted phone since flip phones. Still got time to make the change top Verizon or AT&T... You know and actually have a useable network...

Actually, maybe T-Mob? Or is that like jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire?
I actually think you're right. This phone is great without rooting. Perhaps if we get the U version of software available for the Note 8, that might be worth flashing.

I'm trying to parse your dilemma here.
Video calling works just fine depending on what video calling service you're trying to use. There's a myriad of them out there, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Hangouts...just to mention a few.
As far as i know, there's no native interoperable carrier-to-carrier plain-jane video calling (like native SMS, for example).
Just saying "video calling" doesn't work, or that your T-Mobile buddy couldn't video call you doesn't tell us much. Was your T-Mobile buddy using any of the aforementioned video calling apps/services?
I video call family on 3 continents using either WhatsApp or FB Messenger (on iOS and Android) just fine.
My note 8 came with google DUO. I thought that was androids version of Facetime.

I guess you can refer to it as such, although Hangouts predates Duo. But for you to "Duo" someone else, they have to be using Duo as well.
If Sprint included its own video calling option, I imagine it would only work with other Sprint users, anyway. Just use one of the many video calling apps that your friends have and can use.

Weirdly that call had to begin on Wi-Fi and it would be a seamless transition to cellular data right?
Apparently the note will get that same feature, but who's to say how long until it does?

Wow, and here I was thinking XDA members were smarter than that..... Just so you'll know in the future : each carrier's network varies depending on your location. That's right! How they perform in your town isn't the same as how they perform everywhere else in the US!
Where I live, just outside of Atlanta, Sprint is has the best coverage and fastest speeds. AT&T and Verizon are gradually improving, while T-Mobile is still a joke.
The more you know....
Sprint will update for VoLTE as soon as available like they did for S8 but Sprint does not have built in video calling like T-Mobile...after trying to force the setting, it still doesn't work because there is no app...with T mobile, there is a hidden app that links to the setting...Google duo, hangout, Skype are the only options so far

The Note 8 feature for Sprint Video Calling is still unavailable and Sprint customer care had no answers for me! The video caller icon should be on the dialer not the voicemail icon

That's what the issue is...the video call feature is a phone feature that allows you to video call other galaxy 8 owners...however its been disabled by Sprint when you buy a Note 8 from there network...

OneUI 2.0 Beta live in U.S. !!

As of two minutes ago I was able to register for the OneUI 2.0 Beta in the Samsung Members app and am in the process of downloading the update now! I'm running the latest U1 firmware for reference!
Banner in Members app is pretty low key, but it's there. I'm downloading it as well and will check back in on the flip side.
Running on AT&T Prepaid, by the way.

Is this for carrier unlocked or factory unlocked?
I'm on the unlocked U1 firmware so it would technically be an unlocked phone.
Any idea if carrier locked will be able to join?

I haven't seen any info on who in the US is getting beta access so I don't know. However if you really want to try the beta you can do what I did last year when pie was rolling out. You can flash to the U1 firmware even on a carrier locked phone and then you SHOULD be able to register through the Members app. No guarantees though.
Mine is also an unlocked Snapdragon version purchased directly from Samsung. To reiterate what has been said, you can flash the unlocked firmware to your device and pick up the update.

ASHA Support?
Does anyone KNOW if the S9 beta released today (12/11) for the US unlocked S9 includes Android Streaming Hearing Aid (ASHA) support?
I own a pair of Resound LiNX Quattro hearing aids that (according to Resound), have support for Android streaming via ASHA (they state that Android 10 and Bluetooth 5.0LE are required), I know my S9 had Bluetooth 5.0LE, but after installing the beta today, I can't get streaming to the hearing aids to work. I'm thinking that either the ASHA support isn't in Samsung's beta build, or the hearing aid manufacturer doesn't actually support it...

Is this the latest Pie build? If so I suggest Frija. It's a nice little program available here in xda which will download the latest firmware for you. Also much faster than most sites out there for download speed.
Not sure if this will work for me now that I'm reading it over. It appears I would need a 960U1 device to obtain its firmware? I have a 960U AT&T and wanting to flash U1 firmware to get the Beta DL link.

You absolutely can. The devices are the same whether branded or unlocked. I have an AT&T branded 960U and I've been running U1 for well over a year.

Thanks jwzg, I had found those settings, but all of them seem to relate to modifying the speaker outputs -
As an FYI - ASHA is intended to allow synchronized bluetooth connections to two separate devices, a left and a right hearing aid.

On a factory unlocked S9. Installed the beta yesterday. Smooth and easy so far. Nothing too dramatic as far as improvements, really. I think the days are gone when the updates have amazing new features that we've never seen before. But it seems stable, and no glitches yet.

I've noticed an issue for me on the gesture navigation. I've used it since Pie so I'm accustomed to swiping up in different spots to go back or home. On the beta though whatever I have open seems to catch the swipe action In addition to the navigation. So if I have the keyboard open it registers as key strokes. If I have my email open it scrolls through my emails as it closes. This wasn't happening on Pie.

There is a "more options" setting that will allow you to change it to the same swipe gestures as Pie. I wasn't feeling that new fancy left swipe, right swipe deal either.
