anyone got the knowledge or skills to determine if those on at&t with a skyrocket lte data provisioned sim featured with visual voicemail could somehow mod this app or otherwise address hacks to get it operational on gsm GNxS?
Did you ever figure this out? I just unboxed the GN yesterday and am missing VVM already...
Just use Google voice

^^^^^^ Lord, it never fails..... (*shakes head*)
Anyway, I'm not sure that getting the app to install would be enough. I really don't know whether AT&T would check to see whether you were running an approved device before delivering your VVM over the data network, or whether it would be enough to have an LTE data plan and maybe be connected to the "pta" access point?
I doubt the apk checks anything on the device. mist likely just have to be provisioned correctly on the att system. Check you features unless it says vvm on it somewhere(will ether be a seperate feature or or attaches to a dataplan) it will not work.

QUESTION?
I have a skyrocket...and now a Note.
i want this app also.
ATT said its only designed for certin devices. (doubt that)
anyway
i am thinking of cloning the apk and a little redesign and moddifaction.
Question is.....WOULD ANY ONE CONSIDER A "CollectiveVisualVoiceMail.apk"
if so...let me know!

I'm thinking of buying a galaxy nexus, but I'm on at&t cell provider called straight talk (mvno).
The only question in my mind right now is if I will be able to use google wallet under the MVNO
It would be great if someone was in my same circumstances and give me some information. Any help would do.
Thanks in advance

Google Wallet is just an app and its not Network/Carrier driven.
I understand that, but there was an article in engadget.com about it working on Tmobile, and they seemed surprised.
It COULD have been cause they got it from the Tmobile google play store (different networks have different play stores)
I just wanted to make sure, that I could use the NFC before I buy the phone

Google Wallet was blocked in the past in the store. However, after it's installed, I haven't heard anything about its usage being blocked in any way.
It's not blocked in the US for the GSM version as of yesterday.

so can I sum it up by saying that Google wallet is dependant on hardware only, and that if it works on one (US) Carrier, it should work on any other?
Please correct any inaccuracies in that statement. Please point out ANY inaccuracies.

does the phone have NFC, is android, and can install apps? if the answer is yes, then it works.

That is incorrect, cause skyrocket has NFC, icecream sandwich (or legitimate GB) , and can install apps. This is still not enough to use google wallet. It's said that the reason is, that it doesn't have a "secure element"

I have a Galaxy Nexus with Straight Talk. And it doesn't update the balance or show card info, or neither work at the terminal when I type using Straight Talk Data network.
However it works fine over wifi.
This is what I've learned from my experience. Yes theoretically it should work. But it doesn't. If anyone has tried and it works, then please share how did you work it out.
I've had ST for several months and Wallet works flawlessly - with Wi-Fi and with mobile data

Your problem is most likely your apn is not set up correctly. When I first started using wallet with H2O wireless I had much the same problem. After deleting the apn's that auto populated and creating new ones with the correct settings my problems went away. I have since tried red pocket and Tmobile prepaid as well and have had no issues using wallet on any of them.

Hi there,
Would you guys be kind enough to grab the right APN settings and post it here for me. I have factory Reset my device twice and still failed. So I'm hoping its only a APN problem only as well.
By the way I have ATT version of SIM Card from straight talk

Would you care to post your APN settings for me. It'll be great..Thanks.
I know its been asked before and I also know its been shot down before...but still trying to find out if anyone had any kind of success with making a tmo wifi calling app for the our beloved nexus. I know there are other options but I want to be able to call anyone and receive incoming calls with my tmo number.
Thanks
Unfortunately, T-mobile's wifi calling has hooks in the kernel and the ril, as well as now being baked into the rom itself. It's VERY unlikely that this will ever happen. Sorry.
I was afraid someone was going to say something like that.

Well this is kind of annoying... I'm using a T-Mobile S4 on the MetroPCS BYOD plan which is great... $55 all in (I have two lines).
The PROBLEM is while most manufacturers put their apps on the Google Play Store MetroPCS doesn't... all the MetroPCS apps (aka "bloatware" that come with a Metro phone aren't available anywhere.
This should be pretty simple, someone with a rooted phone could upload the apps. I really only want the the account management and visual voice mail apps.
I hope they fix this, any help in the mean time appreciated... the question is: WHERE CAN I GET THESE APPS?
Have you tried the metro app store, pretty sure it has that stuff.

There's a link to MyMetro (account management), post #3 and voicemail app is in metro store that was linked above.
FYI, I switched my two Metro S4s to TMO recently, but I was only able to get MyMetro to work on one of them beforehand. Hopefully goes better for you, but I tried calling them and they seemed to have no clue what the app is or how to get it working. One person said that it wasn't compatible with my phone or plan, the fact that it worked on one of them was irrelevant....customer service gotta love them.
Interested in GSM calling info, NOT VoIP calling!!!
I have searched the form, but have not found a definitive answer. I am looking to purchase Nexus 7 LTE and I'm curious if GSM calling is available with a custom ROM like CyanogenMod 11 or Slimkat. I'm not new to flashing as I run Slimkat on my Nexus 4, but I don't want to get rid of my 2013 Nexus 7 and purchase the LTE variant if I cannot make calls on it. I KNOW its a tablet, and no level of rooting\unlocking on the stock ROM will allow this, just unsure if its a hardware or software issue. I saw one post where member 'thejmannnc' said he was able to make calls with cm11, but every other post(which are all months old) said it was not possible. I would really like to hear from someone that has actually succeded in installing and using the dialer for GSM calls and SMS/MMS texting. Thanks in advance for proven answers.

Nope, what??? I've already read that thread...there is no proof in it...I would like to hear from someone who has actually tried to do it...and preferably from someone who actually owns the device in question. Thank you though.

The LTE Nexus 7 can not be used as a phone..
Youtube is your friend here..
You can only use it as a VOIP
Even if you put a fully functional SIM card from a working phone..
You still be unable to use it as a phone..
Obviously your not doing your research.. and looking for someone to do it for you..
if you can't find it, then its just not there..
Look at this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFkIR1elWug
You can only use it as a VOIP.. its not meant for cell calling. Thats why its a Tablet..
Okay...like I said before, I have done the research. I've already read all the posts associated with this subject(by searching on the internet, just like you) and I've seen the video on YouTube. For you to just call me lazy because you dont understand the question is, I feel, a little insulting. I want to know if it is a software issue, or a hardware issue. If you don't know, just say you don't know...none will think any less of you. If you DO know, then offer me some proof that you know, not just some unfounded "nope".
Do you know?
Sorry, but the answer is still no. If the answer were yes, you would see it posted everywhere in this forum.
Actually I am using my n7 as a partial cell. I have actual texting on it and possibly calling {no calling on that sim card, just texting) you may be able to with a proper Sim. Go to the n7 2013 lte specific subforum and read the xposed framework mod for ussd call and text (on my phone so I can't find an exact link)

In CyanogenMod, I have added the phone capability.
VOIP works, but GSM calling did not.
Someone got limited success by flashing a different radio meant for the Nexus 4 - a hybrid radio modem img file.
However, one way voice communications was not considered useful.
Adding in the phone functionality into the Android operating system is not enough.
It appears the Nexus 7 LTE is neutered in the proprietary ASUS radio modem.
Regards,
Howard
P.S. The Nexus 4 guy who makes hybrid radio IMG files was not very receptive to trying to help.
There could be future hope with the expansion of VoLTE, which is being developed by Verzion and T-Mobile (via its purchase of MetroPCS). T-Mobile was testing this in Texas but I dont know where.
If it comes to deployment at end of year, then I think there might be a chance through modification for us.
As of right now it seems just through VoIP.

Why are you so stuck on GSM anyways? VOIP may be kind of crappy on 3G, but on 4g it's fine. Even if you could, I doubt there'd be any carrier out there that would let you do it for free. VOIP on the other hand technically isn't that much different than sending a large email, which is why VOIP -> VOIP is generally free, similar to email services.
I've had a Nexus tablet as my phone for almost 2 years now, and haven't paid a dime because of Google Voice's free VOIP-> PSTN ability. My setup:
Incoming: Call to Google Voice # forwards to Callcentric free DID. Callcentric forwards to pbxes.com, which is linked to my VOIP app (CsipSimple)
Outgoing: CsipSimple -> pbxes.com Gvoice trunk -> PSTN.
Texting using Google Voice app (uses the same number)
Hangouts on my girlfriend's iPad has the calling feature built right in, so I'm sure it's only a matter of time before it comes to Android.
Since I've had my phone (approx. 1.5 years), I've basically just gone without any voicemail service. The reason being, I'm using an unlocked T-Mobile GS3 (T999) on an AT&T service plan. My stock T-Mobile Visual Voicemail didn't work (as I recall), so I never bothered.
Now, however, I would like to have voicemail set up, and I'm pretty lost. I'm sure I'm just making it harder than it is, but I'd rather be sure. Can I just download any basic Visual Voicemail app from the play store and be good to go? If so, any recommendations?
For the record, I'm running CyanogenMod 11 m10
I think you have to call t-mobile and get it set up to work with their vvm.
