I just unlocked my T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S3 to work on At&T network. I have a iPhone contract on my At&T account so i know that visual voicemail will support. I tried to download diffent apk for ATT visual voicemail but it didn't connect. It stuck when I setup my passwork for Visual voicemail. Does anyone know which apk that will work?
Thank you

you can't just put a different carriers sim in the device, you have to SIM unlock it first, and it's my understanding that the FCC restrictions on sim unlocking are pretty specific. call AT&T tell them you need to use the devcie over seas see if they will give you the unlock code, or there are several options out there for unlocking just google "Galaxy Tab3 SM-T217A SIM Unlock", You'll get about 68,400 search results.
As far as I know, the t217a does not have voice capabilities. I use a voip app that allows me to call via data services. I use google hangouts for instant messaging. I do know that text will work but I do not have text on my plan so I don't use it. Hangouts will handle sms now. I have been told that the t217a does not have the hardware for traditional voice services but I don't know if that is true or not.

The SM T217A does indeed have a built in phone but it is locked by the carrier. Once you have unlocked the tab the phone capabilities are also unlocked. Although you may look pretty silly using this big brick as a phone in public

Ive unlocked it and there is no DIALER, SMS works well with hangouts or go sms pro.
You can not make calls on this tablet unless someone makes a ROM for it with the dialer not stripped down like the one in stock rom (unlikely to happen).
In my experience, if you call this tablet from another phone it wont even ring or anything till the carriers voice mail kicks in, this means the phone in this ROM has been permanently disabled.
Also there are NO free ways to unlock it, cheapest one is 19usd(USB reading of NV files), let me know if you want it to hook you up.
did you Root Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 SM T217A for using SMS function from Hangouts ?

Can you please tell me did you use hangouts after rooting the tablet ?
I have installed the version with SMS from android authority but can overwrite on tab by doing that i am not getting the option of SMS or any thing similar to it, so i thought so it might be done if i first root the tablet and completely removed hangout & then again install it, might it work or not sure lol a help would be greatly appreciated, Thank
Hello, I got an LG G Pad X 10.1 GSM Unlocked from AT&T which works with Vodaphone - India. But I could not able to use the Call function. It has AT&T's Number Sync app and requires AT&T login which I dont have to get into the dialer. Other Dialer apps in Play Store are not working.
So, Is there anyway that I can enable the call & SMS function in this tablet...???
Thanks in Advance.
Get a Google Voice number, and install Google Hangouts and Hangouts dialer.

Does calling yourself from the phone flip you to voicemail?

I needed to actually set the voicemail number on this device SM N900T running kitkat.
I have used the Samsung s4, nexus 5, iPhone 6s and I never set a voicemail number as I always called myself from my phone. It could be that I'm not with T-Mobile.
So calling yourself doesn't immediately prompt for the password?
Got it
Never mind that, figured it out, need SMN900A ATT NOTE 3 to change the voicemail number
I recently purchased a Samsung factory unlocked (U1) Note 10+ to replace my Xfinity Mobile S10+. It's working just fine with the original SIM that I swapped over from my Xfinity S10+. VoLTE, WiFi calling, everything works. Except.... Voicemail notifications. None. Zip, zero, nada.
The Xfinity visual voicemail app does not work (not even on an Xfinity purchased Note 10):
"the newest Samsung phones (Note10 included) are not compatible with the Xfinity Visual Voicemail app and moving forward, all new phones will be using the provided voicemail app (not the xfinity visual voicemail app) in which case on the note10 is audio only".
With the Samsung default voicemail app, I don't receive any notification that I have a voicemail message. And if I open the app, it always says "no new voicemails". But if I touch the "check voicemail" button in the app, my new voicemail messages are there and I can listen to them. I've enabled all permissions for the app, and enabled all relevant notification settings.
I suspect that the problem is not related to app notification issues, but rather related to the app accessing/checking my voicemail. Since it always says "you have no new messages", whether there are messages or not.
All feedback/suggestions welcome.
Edit: solution is to install Youmail app.
Surely someone has some ideas?

I just got my unlocked Note 10+. I will see if my notifications work for voicemail and let you know. I do use AT&T for my service.

I bought the Note 10+ last week, samsung unlocked, and I just swap my SIM, I have a mexican SIM and I was in USA (black friday). I received a voicemail and the notification was just right, but, when I click on it I wasnt able to connect to my voicemail, what I did was to dial directly from the phone app to the voicemail phone number (my case, *086) and only then was able to enter it. Here in Mexico I dont have to do that, just straight from the notification.
I have the same issue on my Verizon S10 that I swapped my Xfinity sim into. Pretty much everything works great but the voicemail function.
I have AT&T and installed the Visual Voicemail app. I completed the setup in the app and voicemail notifications are working.
Solved!
Summary: Xfinity Mobile voicemail app will not work on Note 10/10+
Samsung native voicemail app will not "check in" with voicemail and always gives a false negative (you have no new messages, even when you have new messages).
Solution was very simple: download and install the app "Youmail". Very easy to set up, and works flawlessly.
Thanks to all for their input.

wrong it didnt work for my Verizon Note 8 that I have on Xfinity mobile. Youmail wont connect to my voicemail. Luckily I can dial in *86. But if I let the app switch to built in voicemail I lose it completely and no one can leave messages. No matter how you access it, it states "number not in service" thats even when calling my phone to leave a message. How the hell can an app affect voicemail like that?
SOLVED!!!!
I was having the same problem on my Galaxy Note 9. I changed the network mode from Global to LTE/GSM/UMTS and my voicemail works. ( go into to Settings then click Connections, click Mobile Networks and click Network Mode)
