Verizon Visual VM



Does anyone else get prompted to accept/decline visual voice mail EVERY single time you get a voice-mail? How many times must I decline?? I don't want to pay for this thing and I've never had it forced in my face so many times with other Verizon phones.



Dropping data on Verizon?



Coming from a moto droid maxx and liking the native super fast Google experience with Marshmallow.

Phone is dropping data periodically on Verizon and will only pick it back up by changing the preferred network type. Anybody else having this problem? If not, maybe I just have a bad device.

Thanks

Need Verizon Software Repair Assistant for Note 4



Im on Lollipop 5.0.1 and tried to downgrade to Kit Kat with Odin so I could root my Note 4. Got softbricked saying to use the Verizon Software Repair Assistant to get my phone back on.

Verizon Basic Visual Voicemail



Can anyone get voicemaill to work on Verizon on their 5x? I just get a garbled text message when a voicemail comes in. There is a nexus visual voicemail app but it hangs on authentication when going into it. I guess I can call Verizon and have them switch back to regular dial in voicemail.....



Straight Talk (Verizon Wireless) Service and Enable Mobile Data/MMS Solved



It's likely my luck that this may be posted somewhere within XDA but I wanted to let everybody know I found the fix for those of us who have Verizon Wireless HTC One M8 Android (and Windows) devices that there is a fix to enabling mobile data and MMS on their devices:

Name: Straight Talk - Verizon Internet (name whatever you want)
APN: ACCT.TF.GW6.VZWENTP
MMSC: http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms
MCC: 311
MNC: 480
APN Type: default,dun,stdhipri,supl
APN Protocol: IPv4/IPv6
APN Roaming Protocol IPv4/IPv6
Bearer: LTE
Mobile Virtual Network operator type: none
Mobile Virtual Network operator value: Not set

The rest of the entries should be left blank/not set.

I don't take credit for this, I found this after spending four hours last night and early this morning chasing it. But I at least wanted to get the info out there; why, there's a world of difference between branded Verizon Wireless at for 6 GBs of data plus for the smart phone and a .50, .98 with fees and taxes for 5 GBs and speeds equally as fast on LTE. Enjoy!



Is there any way to hide tethering from Verizon on 4.4.4?



Hello. This did not seem to be a device-specific question, so I hope I am posting it in the right place. If not, please let me know.

I was always using PDANet for tethering on my unlimited Verizon data plan. I liked PDANet a lot because it had a "hide usage" mode. I believed using that mode, some sort of proxy was used so Verizon would never be able to tell I am tethering.

Now that I updated to 4.4.4, PDANet unfortunately no longer works (only in USB mode which won't be possible for m y situation). However, I rooted my phone and installed Moto Tether and it is working great. Problem is that it's using Verizon's built-in tethering app which I am 99.9% sure will show up on Verizon's side as tether usage.

Is there any app for a rooted phone that works on 4.4.4 but also offers to hide tethering as a feature?

Thank you kindly in advance. :)



Internal LDI? (Verizon G4)



Wondering if anyone knows if there are any internal LDI's in the Verizon LG G4.

I see the LDI on the battery and between the SIM and battery contacts.



Just rooted, froze apps, and now stuck on Verizon screen



I just rooted last night and everything was good... This morning all I did was freeze some of the stock Verizon apps, and the system crashed. When it reboots now, it's stuck at the Verizon screen. I can access Recovery, and have tried "fastboot erase cache" but that hasn't fixed it. Any suggestions? Please help!



Carrier Lockdown on features (First example: Verizon Hotspot)



What carriers have somehow locked down features on your Nexus 5X?

Over here on Verizon, I've already noticed the hotspot is locked via this message (after a quick dialog that says "checking subscription").

Verizon Hotspot lockout

My girlfriend and I both purchased the 5X on the same order and her T-mobile SIM carded 5X works as designed for the hotspot.

So much for a "pure Android" experience!

Add Straight Talk (Verizon Wireless towers) APN to Verizon variant HTC One M8



I have a HTC One M8 (Android) rooted, S-Off, and currently running the ViperOne Rom. It is a Verizon Wireless variant M8; I want to run it on Straight Talk (Verizon Wireless towers)...not AT&T and/or T-Mobile. Okay...I go to Settings >> Mobile Data >> Network Settings >> CDMA Options >> Access point names >> and there are 9 different variations of Verizon mobile data APNs; the main one branded Verizon sim cards use is at the very top "Verizon Internet >> VZWINTERNET. Everybody I have talked to thus far says, I edit this setting to reflect Straight Talk but the only thing that is not grayed out is "VZWINTERNET" and I change that to "tfdata" (no quotes). Result: No data! So, I return to Network Settings >> (go to) Network Preference List where I'm greeted with 18 GSM/UMTS) names that include vodafone AL, ONEtouch, etc. I assume by looking at this list it is as what in parentheses implies; GSM/UMTS networks. I have gone to the upper right hand corner of the Network preference List and all it says is "Add" and "Edit", I click on "Add" and then I'm greeted with "Network Code" and "Operator List". When I went to the Network Code it asks for the MCCMNC format which for Straight Talk is 310410, click "OK" and I'm now greeted by "Add Network" and GSM, UMTS, GSM/UMTS, LTE, GSM/UMTS/LTE which the latter is what I set. I'm returned to the Network preference List and nothing has been added. When I return to "Add" or "Edit", Click on "Add" and then "Operator List"...oh dear God, the mother of all APN lists with multiple T-Mobile, AT&T, vodafone to select from but no Straight Talk nor Tracfone nor Net10...no American Movil. I'm guessing these are not CDMA but "Global" GSM providers. I'm at wits end with this. Frankly, I'm sick of the caveats that come with owning Verizon Wireless compatible devices. I just bought this HTC One M8 Android and again another aggravation to cope with; I can live without MMS, I can't live without mobile data. I was trying to save on our monthly bill with Straight Talk which we've used now for five years with the AT&T towers; where we've moved to, we barely have an AT& signal but we do have three to four bars over on Verizon Wireless but we did not want to have to pay the plus for smart phone access for comparable service which we pay .50....98 including taxes per line. I didn't expect this much aggravation with all of this. I'd sincerely appreciate whether this is common to this particular variant or would it help to flash ARHD43 or GPE onto the device or is this something that is hardware encoded or provisioned by whatever SIM card goes into the device; thanks everybody!



Custom ROM, need Verizon Visual Voicemail app back..



I've recently flashed FreedomROM to my Verizon variant Galaxy S5. Everything is running incredibly smooth; aside from being unable to access Visual Voicemail or find it on the play store. All other Verizon apps are also gone, which is fine. The only two I used were VVmail and the My Verizon app for data and account stuffI have tried installing a 3rd party app but it messed up my data services.

Can anyone recommend how to get this back? I'm unable to find an .APK for my specific device, nor am I able to find it on the play store.

Thanks! (also, I hope this is the correct place for asking)

Will root ever be available for Verizon S6 Edge Plus?



So is rooting an S6 Edge Plus just a matter of finding out how to do it without making the phone unusable, or can it just not be done?

Thanks?
