I bought an unlocked s8 from Best buy and activated on Verizon. After a while I noticed I don't have the visual voicemail anywhere on the phone and no wifi calling. I tried to find an app for vvm and got to the conclusion that Google voice would work. So I installed the app and when I wanted to forward my number to Google voice I see there's no menu in the more settings from the phone app.
So getting this unlocked s8 I miss visual voicemail and wifi calling which I understand is a carrier feature. And by the way when I get a voicemail there's no text sound or notification for it. Nothing.
So if I want visual voicemail what can I do?
Can I flash the unlocked s8 to Verizon firmware? Do I loose warranty?
Any ideas?

Hi all,
I've got a blue 1 icon next to send/receive times and a heart icon on the send button of the stock messaging app on my Sg Edge+ running 6.01
What do they signify?

I found out from another forum that the icons denote which sim card the sms has been sent to/from. My phone isn't a dual-sim phone though which seems weird.
i thought i was the only one who has this
how to deactivate the dual sim stuff? and why do we have this, when the s6 + does not support dual sims...
Hi, I've tried to no avail to find out how to disable the emergency broadcasts. I'm on AT&T, and am running stock LG-US996 firmware. There isn't a listed option in Messaging or Messenger, nor in settings under networks or notifications. Has anyone else encountered this, and if so, is there a solution?
Thanks!
There's an app installed called "Emergency Alerts" installed where you can modify notification settings.

Thank you!!! I spent forever looking for a setting, never thought to look for an app!
I need some insight. I picked this phone up yesterday and right off the bat it had no voice or anything. I flashed the U firmware and still I have no voice or anything. I tried my Cricket sim and my wife's AT&T sim. I called cricket support and they changed the imei since it didn't change on it's own. Apn is correct.
What else can I look at?

When I first got this phone, I took my Verizon SIM card out of my old phone and it worked like a charm. Then I upgraded to 8.0, and did the Easy Root in this forum.
Now I have no data. I have phone calls and text messaging but no data. I've tried changing access points, etc but nothing. Whether I use GLOBAL, CDMA OR GSM.
Can anyone explain what I missed?
Ps- along the top, in my status bar, the "Vo)) LTE" icon is bright white, "4GLTE" icon is displayed but greyed out and I have full signal.
Try that apn name

So I switched from Verizon to Tmobile and noticed that voLTE is working even though I'm on Pixel Experience... The only thing I changed was ro.carrier in build prop from VZW to TMO. Is this normal? IMS still shows up as Not Registered and Voice over LTE still says Unavailable but it works. Is it supposed to work on Tmobile? Yes I tried sending a text with LTE only as the service and works flawlessly....

Edit: hold on, Calling drops to 3G but texts work fine over LTE... Why didn't this work on Verizon but it works on Tmobile? I could care less about calls but texts working over LTE is a god send for me.
