BlueAngel Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Don't know if it's the new phone or not but I just pulled 27 down on B25 10×10 never saw that on my S8+. Rivals the speeds I used to see on B25 when LTE was first turned on lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't let the reviews fool you, it's a lot better in every aspect. The performance difference is very noticeable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The voice mail app is in the Google Play store, just remember it is Sprint. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sprint.vvm It sort of works for me. 6 hours ago, BlueAngel said: Don't know if it's the new phone or not but I just pulled 27 down on B25 10×10 never saw that on my S8+.

DM98 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 On my unlocked S9+, I haven't been able to get any voicemail notification at all, in Visual Voicemail app, or the tradition notification icon. Has anyone experienced the issue? Solution? I got a ticket open with Sprint, but nobody wants to call me back... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just installed the new Visual Voicemail app this morning but I've been managing my voicemail using Google Voice. I have it set up so that when my phone is Busy or No Answer, the caller gets forwarded to my Google Voice voicemail. I've been using it that way since July of 2017 when I got the Unlocked Galaxy S8+. This workaround still works with my new Unlocked Galaxy S9+. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is the guide to activate Calling Plus on the Unlocked Galaxy S8+ & Unlocked Galaxy S9+: (1) Using the app "Shortcut Master" or Novalauncher Activities shortcut function, find the following three settings: (2) Inside "LTEFunctionalityTest," go into "VoLTE Test UI" and turn On the first 2 settings. Click on the "Set" button for the fourth-row item. (3) Inside the "EnhancedLteServices," click on it so that a check mark is shown. (4) Then go into "WfcSettings" and turn on Wifi calling: (5) Reboot your phone. (6) Turn off your Wifi and try making a call. You should see the "LTE" Status Bar symbol remain on as you initiate a phone call. Go browse the Internet while talking~!! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fastest I've seen was 203 or so on my s8+, I'm currently in a band 25 only market but when I get back to atlanta in a month I should be getting much better performance.

This workaround still works with my new Unlocked Galaxy S9+. I actually use Google Voice for my main number. The Sprint number is just a forwarding number. But it isn't right that even basic voicemail doesn't notify me. Something is probably off with my account with Sprint. Anyway, hope they will call me back one day and get this sorted.

A person on XDA gave me the tip about also having to activate WiFi Calling to make Calling Plus work again. Last year, I didn't have to activate WiFi Calling.Sent from my SM-N910C using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
