Visual voicemail app for AT&T network - LG G5 Questions & Answers

I have the H850 European unlocked version of the G5 but am using it on the US AT&T network. Based on documentation for the AT&T specific H820, there us a visual voicemail function that shows up on the dialer in the phone app. Does anyone know of a way to get this working on the H850?
Thanks for any advice or direction.

The AT&T Visual Voicemail app is available on Google Play.

I tried to get this to work on my unlocked G5 (RS988) used on AT&T here in the US, and it says the app is not compatible with my device. This is total BS because the AT&T branded G5 comes with AT&T Visual Voicemail pre-loaded. If someone figures out how to get this working, please share. Thanks.

I can't speak for the AT&T app but the T-Mobile app loads just fine on any model.

I checked the AT&T app for my current phone US992 and it will load. If you are seeing the not compatible error you could download the apk from the Play Store using an apk downloader like evozi.

Thanks for that suggestion, or I may just copy the .apk over from my prior phone (AT&T branded HTC One m7) to the G5.
Is the AT&T Visual Voicemail app working for you?

I don't have AT&T but it will install from the Play Store.

I am thinking the phone / contacts app from the stock AT&T ROM and maybe other components would do it, based on the orange circled icon in this image from the AT&T help documents:
I could not find any links to download the ROM / updates (latest was H82011k) except for OTA instructions. So we would need to find out what files we need and get someone with the H820 to copy the files out for us - any volunteers?
I downloaded the AT&T visual voicemail app from the play store, but it is for U-verse and unified messaging customers, and does not work for standard wireless customers like me.

So I finally found something that works. AT&T has a visual voicemail app but the G5 is set as incompatible in the Play Store. Based on AT&Ts help page they think it is already installed on the device, not considering there are multiple versions.
Anyway I downloaded the APK from here: http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/att-se...al-voicemail-4-0-0-0095-android-apk-download/
I tried using Market Helper to change my device to a compatible one but could not get that to work.
I verified the above app works. Even transcribes your voicemail! I am just missing the shortcut on the dialer screen to the VVM app, but I can live with that.
Hope this helps other AT&T users.

I just found what I think is the most current version of this app: http://apk-files.org/apk/com.att.mobile.android.vvm/at%26t+visual+voicemail/

YOU! I love you. I just had to figure this out as well, didn't know there was an app for this.
More details
Can you share any more details with this. I downloaded a market enabler app but couldn't seem to get anywhere. Which one did you use and which country did you run as? I am curious I just want to get my samsung act setup.
Thanks.

Same problem with me in the start... Though I solved it by changing the country to UK in gmail account...
Find out what country ROM you have, and then download and activate Market-enabler of the same same Country your ROM is. You should be fine after that!

In regards to your first point; You can view the frequencies that are being used by the phone online (I usually use GSM arena or just a google search) and then compare them with your countries bands (also a quick google away). I am Australian and searched on my carriers website and they had a map showing where their coverage was in terms of each band. So I was able to work out that getting the phone would be fine for me for my daily life but when I leave that and go on a day trip or something I can sometimes get 1 bars in some places. (This is regarding my last phone by the way (mate 8))

that's what I used to do.. but I'm too lazy for that now - I just use kimovil
hmm, strangely I can't find the chinese version there.. it does have the chinese mate x 20 though
basically there is no limitation of software , including all the services of Google, Only thing that can not work is Google Maps Timeline, dont know why , it just cant work on the chinese version of phone
but there is a lot of limitation of software on the global version, huawei messaging app, huawei travel assitance, huawei voice assistant, etc
,
Google feed might not be available too.
My worry would be getting a faulty "green" screen and would need to return it, unless the manufacturer honours the warranty regardless where purchased? I had to exchange mine due to faulty lg screen, but it was an over the counter exchange by 3 UK, whom I bought it from. Luckily got a boe screen and it's fine.
google works fine with my chinese m20p..only issue was no no group message from system app, calendar not linking with system app.
HW Chinese model has some notifications delay problem but it get OS update much earlier/faster than international version and call recording feature

you can install google play store from the huawei store included on the phone - at least some people said that, as well I tried to find it on a phone in the huawei (physical) store (in china) and it had play available for install within the huawei app store. I have no idea about google services, I'm sure someone in this thread must have written about it.

Does "OK google" work well with your chinese m20pro? I also have a chinese one , tried but cannot enable google assistant voice match, it just greyed out.
I have the Mate 20 Pro Chinese Version, and Wifi calling for example is not included there.

Samsung Radio Official app

So apparently all S10 shipped with Snapdragon processor has an FM chip built in and it works when using NextRadio app. I have the Canadian Unlocked S10 model and I'm trying to install the official Samsung Radio app from APK mirror (https://www.apkmirror.com/?post_type=app_release&searchtype=apk&s=samsung+radio#undefined). It just won't install on my device. Anyone know the reason? Or better yet, can anyone make it work?

It's not you, I don't think it will work on any S10's. I can't tell you exactly why but I suspect it's for older phones.

The Chinese variant S10 comes preloaded with the Samsung Radio App, so I don't see why this can't work on our devices here.

Hoping someone can come up with a solution. I prefer stock apps over 3rd party especially with NextRadio since it supports ads on the screen.

Not working with Android 10
i believe that the samsung fm radio app only works on the U or U1 firmware for US users. i know i had that problem with the Galaxy S7, S8 and S9. worked when i flashed the firmware, but lost it when i jumped because it wouldn't install to the next device from Samsung backup, and smart switch

Well, fun. NextRadio doesn't work for me on my S10. It gives me a network error and doesn't go any further. Scratch that, it still gives a network error if you have any sort of data connection on. It will work after jumping through a bunch of hoops:
Start it with Airplane Mode on (need to force close if you started it before turning Airplane Mode on)
It will also insist on searching for local stations via location (either GPS or postal code), after you let it fail it will finally give you access to the FM tuner
It will then not work until you turn off Airplane Mode (FM radio power is probably turned off by OS )
After all this it will let you use it normally, without messing with Airplane Mode or location info. Still fails looking up local stations via internet. What a piece of junk.
I dug into Play Store reviews to find this procedure.

Just looking at the App Cloner app. Am I mistaken, or doesn't changing the package name require the $50 add on purchase?
Thanks!

Thanks for posting this. It worked on my Galaxy s10, and really loved having over-the-air fm radio available on my phone. Earphones must be plugged in as the radio uses the earphone cable as an antenna.
However, after samsung's recent U3 update, the fm radio app won't work anymore. I tried reinstalling it with App Cloner but unfortunately that doesn't work either.
Is there another way to make this small change to the stock fm radio app name?
Really miss having an fm radio on my phone and would love to get it back!
Dear @grootnova, THANK YOU!
I finally could get my loved FM radio back on my Galaxy A50!
BTW, an Italian law prohibites smart device vendors from SELLING non-DAB Radio equipped after January 1, 2021.
They took it very seriously, in Samsung, and in december 2020 they issued an "update" that removed the Radio app from ALL the smartphones, even those already sold before 2021 (I bought my A50 in June 2019).
Multiple models were affected (Galaxy A50, A30 and several others), you can imagine how much the customers were happy...
Thanks again,
Max - Italy
I'm seeing this behaviour too. But I noticed that if turn off the radio, change the station and then turn on the radio again, it works. More a workaround than a solution, but at least it's working somehow.
Seen this on Radio app version 12.0.00.34.

G8X WideMode view app also works on the V60

The application made for the LG G8X that enables any app to be put in wide mode also works on the LG V60 ThinQ.
It is available from the Play Store.
Original G8X thread here.
I contacted the developer to see if he can duplicate the app for the V60, but in the meantime the G8X version works on the V60.

What do you mean by duplicating the app as it works fine, is there a feature not working in tbe v60?
Which version you was using?
I just downloaded 1.1.2 version, app name changed to " wide screen for LG".
This version didn't work with my new v60.
1.1.3
I tried the latest version 1.1.3 on my T-Mobile LG v60 and it did not work.

That is weird, t-mobile here and it works on 1.1.3 the app was updated to widemode for LG and it is working.
Make sure to go into the quick settings and you'll see it called "Wide Mode", then you'd have to connect the second screen, then from any app swipe down your quick settings and add it.
I uninstalled and reinstalled and it's now working. Thank you.
Thanks works like a champ.

I had no issues installing and using the newest version of this app available on the Google Play Store.
Every app I threw at it (not many, admittedly) worked as well as I could have hoped.
I wound up retiring my dual-screen accessory for now because it made typing in portrait incredibly uncomfortable and the neither Nova Launcher nor Fluid Navigation Gestures work on the second screen.
Neat idea, but the experience is just too compromised for my preferred software environment to offset the cumbersome implementation.

This app was working with kiwi browser on my android 10 v50 but I upgraded to android 12 and this doesn't work with kiwi browser anymore (still works with chrome though), any idea for a solution ?? thanks !
UPDATE :
for what it's worth I had an old v93 version of "kiwi browser (next)" and WideMode is working with this version !
(also with old v88 version of Ungoogled-chromium-android-extensions )
... now I have a good adblocker (ublock) and real fullscreen (with floatly) when browsing the web with my 2 screens ...
