Coolpad Snap

Has anyone actually used this 600mhz flip phone phone yet? What Android Version is it? Play Store? Hot Spot Capable? I have a need for 100 pieces if it can be used as a hot spot.

AT&T "Knock" Notification Sound

I just switched back to TMO from ATT. While going through all the transfer stuff I noticed that the S20 FE does not offer the "Knock Knock" notification sound that I used on my ATT S9.1. Are notification sounds carrier specific or device specific?2. Is their a way to import the knock sound while I still have the ATT S9?3. Or is there an App with custom sounds?Thanks

Does Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G SM-G9880 work with T-Mobile?

Hi, I'm planning to buy a Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra model SM-G9880 because that model has the Dual SIM feature.I heard it may have some limitations with the network in the US. I'm not sure if its 5G would work with T-Mobile's network or if only 4G does. I read that this particular model works with these bands:4G: LTE B1 / B2 / B3 / B4 / B5 / B7 / B8 / B12 / B13 / B18 / B19 / B20 / B25 / B26 / B28 / B34 / B38 / B39 / B40 / B415G: Sub-6 N1 / N78 / N79Can anyone tell me if this model works just fine with T-Mobile?

OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren cannot hold a GPS signal

I have submitted this same issue with OnePlus.I am on my second OnePlus 7T Pro 5G purchased directly from T-Mobile and the phone is not able to hold a GPS signal while getting directions in ANY mapping app (eg. Google Maps, Waze, etc.)What happens is that you enter a destination in the mapping app and start the directions. A use case used a bazillion times by a bazillion users.  On your route for no rhyme or reason at no specific interval, the mapping app will lose its connection to GPS and the arrow where you are on the map will freeze at your last known location.  While you continue on your way, at some point the mapping app will reconnect to GPS and find you and you will "fast forward" to your current position on the map. This happens multiple times during your travels at varying intervals.I have captured this with a screen recording using an app called GPS Test simultaneously with Google Maps.  The link is below.  The time stamps of note are:Three examples in one video. 1st one sta

call forwarding?

I use Google Voice for voice mail. I have always made sure this is set up by going into the call forwarding screens and then putting my google voice number in there. But today it is all grayed out. The background is - within the last several weeks, (and it was not immediately after installing any updates, so if there was an update installed, it occurred unbeknownst to me) my s7 Edge began experiencing EXTREME battery depletion. I had done everything I can to figure out what is causing this, but have yet to do so yet. Then, as of today, my text messaging started not working. So I installed a third party messaging app I have used in the past with no problems, and after a few messages in that app, the same sms/mms sending failures started happening with that app so I returned to the stock app. I did a cache wipe, uninstalled and reinstalled wifi networks... I shut down and restarted and phone and set phone to wifi preferred. WIth this setting, the call forwarding settings are greyed out.

Is there a way to turn off the "Calls will be made over Wi-Fi" alert?

My phone (LG-V30) gives me way too many alerts telling me "Calls will be made over Wi-Fi". I seem to get this every time my phone connects to Wi-Fi, and sometimes multiple times when my phone should already be on Wi-Fi. Sometimes I get this alert every few minutes.  I get so many of these alerts I usually ignore alerts from my phone.  This alert is not useful information. The alert comes with a message "tap here to access preferences". If I tap this gives me an option to turn off Wi-Fi calling, but not to turn off the alert.  I've also looked through settings and found options to turn off alerts from apps. I turned off alerts from app "T-Mobile", but this doesn't affect this alert.  None of the other app options seem to apply to this. Is there some other setting to turn off this alert?I know my phone can do WiFi calling, but can it do it silently, and not alert me multiple times a day it's able to do this?

No mobile network on Samsung Note 20 5G Ultra

I’m not getting mobile network on a brand new Samsung Note 20 5G Ultra from T-mobile on 5G, 4G LTE, or 3G. I still am getting data on these bands but have zero network bars (greyed out with an X).I only see mobile network bars on 2G (EDGE). I can only make a phone call from 2G.Additionally, WIFI calling does not seem to be working even though it’s enabled on the device and my E911 location is set on tmobile.com.Any ideas?

How do you fully delete facebook off your phone?

As more and more reports of the facebook app just being spyware/malware I would like to know how to remove it off my phone. Current reports show even if you don't have an account and haven't opened the app it still spies on your every move. If that is true then even disabling it does nothing. I have a Samsung Galaxy S9 plus,  so I'm unable to install an alternate OS like lineage since my boot loader is locked. Any help would be appreciated.

ATT Samsung S7 Edge mobile data not working

I gave my friend my ATT Samsung S7 Edge. I first had it unlocked.  We then took it to the store, and they activated it with a SIM.  She can make phone calls, text, and use her home Wi-Fi, but she soon discovered she cannot connect to the internet outside her home. We took it to the store again, and they put the SIM in another phone, and it worked.  Store employees called tech support and could not get it to work. I called tech support, and they had me manually put in Access Point Names (erc.tmoble.com and fast.t-mobile.com).  Neither APN worked--although we did get a 4G symbol.  I will add the phone has the latest ATT version of Nougat.  It has been over 2 weeks, and she still cannot use mobile data, and no one seems to know why!!! I suggested she leave T-Mobile for ATT as it is an ATT phone, but she likes T-Mobile.  Anyone have any suggestions. The only thing I can think of is going back to her Note 3, or possible doing a factory reset.

Facebook app installer Facebook app manager

Not only do the to come built-in worthen the T-Mobile branded phone they also do some very interesting stuff such as attempting to connect online once in awhile even though I do not run them at all. Somebody should be really ashamed about this no? How is T-Mobile okay with being in the bed with Facebook apps finding their own servers without the user's even opening the app installer or at manager.All the funniest thing I've ever seen is calculator trying to connect to some server.There is some more interesting things on my phoneservices, com.lge.ims.rcsprovider, com.qualcomm.qcrilmsgtunnel, com.qualcornm.qti.autoregistration, com.qualcomm.qti.telephonyservice, com.qua|comm.qti.uim, Conference URI Dialer, Device Info, EchoLocate, GBAService, LG IMS, MmsService, Multi-line Service, Network, Phone/ Messaging Storage, SIM Toolkit, Wi-Fi Calling Provider, Wi-Fi Calling Camera com.|ge.upse||com.tmobile.pr.adapt Call management, Call screen.

Unfortunately, Visual Voicemail has stopped.

I just updated Visual Voicemail from the play store.  As soon as I try to start it, it says it has stopped.  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, but it does the same thing.  When I reboot the phone, the same message comes up. The phone is a Samsung S4 mini running Android 4.4.2.   The old version of VVM, 5.21.3.80782, worked okay.  Is there any way to get the old version back or to make the new version work?--oobleck

How can I create an alias for my text to be other than {phone#}@tmomail.net?  To clarify, while on Verizon, I could receive texts as {phone#}@vtext.com  or {alias}@vtext.com.  Is this possible with T-Mobile?   Thanks

LG v60 Thinkq (dual screen): Speakerphone cutting off

I am not sure if this is an OS issue or not, but taking a chance someone will have a fix.  We have two of these phones and they both have an issue where while on speakerphone, it will suddenly and with no discernible pattern or time frame, mute your voice to the caller.  You can still hear them but they can't hear you.  If you take it off speaker, they can again hear you (or use headphones, I was just learned).  Since it's happening on BOTH of our phones and have subsequently found other people online with this issue, they must know about.  Am wondering if anyone has any input on this issue.  thanks!
