Hi all,
I've got a few quick questions that I was not able to find the direct answer to in other threads.
1) I'm using an unlocked international HOX on AT&T. I'm on firmware version 1.5 and am unable to get the phone to update. Do I have to do something out of the norm for the phone to see an update?
2) I saw the answer the other thread about Google Wallet being disabled in the States. Is there an APK or something I can load that will allow google wallet to work?
I'm coming from an Iphone 4S and this phone rocks!
Thanks for the help guys!

1. No, updates are pushed out in batches so your batch must not have received it yet.
2. If you have Google Wallet it will work just fine, it does on the Nexus.

As stated in the other threads, I'm able to download Google Wallet but it says that it is not available in my region (SE United States). I'm wondering why the Nexus and other phones are able to use Wallet on AT&T but the international/unlocked version of the One X isen't.. Strange..
In regards to the update, has anyone in the US been able to upgrade past 1.5?
Thanks all!

Yes. Do a Google search as that's how people got it working on the VZW GN early on. A word of caution. Using the hack leaves all of your GW data open to any apps you have running on your phone. I want GW but, IMHO, it's not worth the risk.
just tried to download. installs, but won't open - not yet certified on device/carrier. i'm on at&t prepaid. wonder if anything will change once at&t lte is widely sold? not a biggie for me personally, but something to think about when it comes down to deciding on which version of the one x to purchase.

i am too much of a noob at this to have truly useful info. i'm in hawaii. i bought a micro-sim off amazon and signed up for the minimal $2/day when used unlimited talk/text plan plus a small data package, because i don't talk/text very much and i'm usually at home, where i have my own wi-fi set up. so having at&t is a fallback for when i'm out and about. that being said, phone calls are clear. checking email and, for example, pulse news service via at&t has been excellent. the one x is notably faster than my acer tablet. haven't tried mms, but i think it should work pretty well; email with a downloaded file that had been pdf'd whizzed through to my laptop, as did a screen cut of photos using dolphin, though that was off home wi-fi. don't see why at&t wouldn't work as well. what i'm waiting for now is to find out if i can get a good bluetooth headset to work (voice commands and all). if so, i may move to another plan so i can use the phone more extensively and downgrade my landline service to the absolute minimum.
All right. Sent a couple of photos via mms from my net10 phone to the one x w/ home wi-fi off. Net10 is running off Sprint in Hawaii. No problemo. Everything came through fine - and quickly.
Looks to me like the big issue for some of the non-techies like me who aren't about to fumble with rooting might be accessing U.S. only apps. Hoping that won't apply to bluetooth headset usability too.

Thanks for the heads up. I got my One X directly from a contact at HTC and it has been in a closet for a while I think... I have firmware 1.15.401.1. Should I include a screenshot or am I on some beta ish? It still won't let me manually update.

i updated the other thread re non-availability of certain apps on non-us htc one x, but for those on at&t like me with unrooted phones, i will add the info here as well. i managed to download google voice on my one x (at&t prepaid) by using dolphin hd browser to google search "google voice." when the results page came up, i clicked the link that took me to the play store and downloaded. the app opened and seems to be working fine. i was unable to download it by going to the play store directly, so the browser may add some kind of filter which makes this possible?
i can't be totally sure that all google voice options will work, because i chose to install the "lite" version - i only wanted my voicemail kicked back to my phone to avoid having to use the phone to check voicemail. (i'm on the $2/day unlimited text/talk plan and if i have to use the phone only to check a random voicemail, i'm throwing my money away.) called my one x from my landline phone and a still-in-use net10 phone and left messages. seems to work. i used my gmail account as the voicemail recipient. no google phone number.
additional info for anyone planning to use a sophisticated bluetooth headset like blueant q2. i purchased one that was at&t branded. does not function completely. the most critical features - voice commands, voice dialing - are not supported in ics, so while the blueant will pair and one could presumably answer an incoming call, the other key features are unavailable. this appears to be a function of ics and not of at&t, though i assume at&t could tweak its own branded htc one x's to overcome that? i have a jawbone era coming in maybe next week and plan to purchase one of the apps available in the play store to test both headsets at the same time. the app's developer told me he has been trying to get his app to work smoothly with ics. it already handles the blueant in other versions of android.

It must be unique to pre-paid accounts. It showed up in the market for me (post paid) and installed without issue.

I'm using a Q2 also. The problem isn't ICS; it's HTC. They left "voice dialer" out of thier ROM. I found APK's from other ICS devices but they don't work. Either a dev has to create one or HTC has to include one for native voice dialing to work. In the meantime I'm using Vlingo. When you use the "in car" mode the phone listens for commands over BT after you say "hey, Vlingo." You can also dictate texts and have incoming texts read back. When you activate it on the Q2 by saying "phone command," it starts up and is listening even though the Q2 says "feature not available." It's not too battery friendly though. Not perfect, but workable.
thanks for the info. is your phone rooted?
everything i found on the net elsewhere says it's android that is the problem re voice dialing - that development was dropped even before ics. does vlingo support announcing incoming caller id on the q2? and follow through on the answer/ignore response? (really, for someone who doesn't use the call function much, i am being very picky. but sophisticated means it should do all things well.)

I'm stock. Vlingo lite is free in the Market so play around with it.
mine will hopefully be here Fri, Mon, or Tue. i didn't think to try to get on a free phone's plan, so i'm getting robbed every month paying $70 (7% student discount wow thanks) for 2 GB, 450 mins (over 400 of which i don't use), and zero text. as soon as i can, i'm switching to Red Pocket. i also thought there was some way ATT was catching people with smartphones on gophone cards and turning their data off or something, to force them to come in and get the 4G sim and pay more. if not, good deal. i stay on wifi, but if i'm out and need data and it's too slow, then i won't be happy.
i just switched to AT&T and have been using GV for years on Sprint. Like to know if the issues are m10 GV or AT&T.
its not letting me change my carrier voicemail or forwarding number.
i am on viper rom right now but i tried it on Ice and leedroid also.
any ideas on a fix?

it connects to my gv number asking for a pin to get in my voicemail.
i was able to get into vm settings on the phone and changed my vm number there. should that make it work even tho i wasnt able to change the carrier?
No, he means did you set it up to forward to your AT&T number? If you switch carriers you have to set it up all over again.

yes i did change that on the GV page.
apparently im not the only one with this problem... http://goo.gl/s8QgW2 its on android central also. i have a feeling the problem is in the new visual voicemail? maybe?
Did you also dial the new forwarding number? You have to dial *004*xxx-xxx-xxxx# to actually set the forwarding correctly.

I've had this issue with all of the european custom ROMS. they don't support call forwarding or Volte on ATT. I've done extensive testing on this issue with the M8 and M9 as well and it's something to do with the telephony apk and libs on the wwe base.
This is a pain, but the quickest way to setup GV on a custom wwe (401) based rom, is make a full backup your custom ROM in TWRP, restore your stock system (617 I'm assuming), setup GV, then restore your custom ROM. You MIGHT need to wipe data after you restore stock, but I would try without wiping first. If you still get the error in call forwarding menu, then go back to twrp and wipe data too.

I also have the same issue with GV on AT&T. But this issue preceded the arrival of my HTC 10. I used GV over AT&T successfully on my HTC One M8 for over 2 years, but somehow in the last couple of months it stopped working and kept going to AT&T voice mail. Same behaviour on my new HTC 10. I think it's something with AT&T network.
PS I'm fully stock, Unlocked US edition HTC 10.

How old is your sim card? I know this sounds like a stock solution from no-nothing ATT support, but Volte and call forwarding didn't work on my wife's A9 until I got her a new sim card instead of the old one from her iphone 5. Of course, that doesn't really explain why it would suddenly stop working.
If you are truly stock, call forwarding should work. What happens when you go to call forwarding settings in your call settings? Does your AT&T VM number show up, or do you get an unexpected network error?
Anyway, if it IS an att network issue, it's not happening in my area. Call forwarding is working as expected here.
The easiest way would be to borrow someone else's ATT phone, put your SIM in, set the call forwarding, transfer SIM. The network stores your values. If that doesn't work, it's an ATT issue with SIM provisioning and your best bet for fixing that is getting a new SIM and starting over.

Any ATT phone will work. The call forwarding moves with the SIM, not the phone. I have T-Mobile and when I was trying out TPO mobile, I had my T-Mobile SIM in my Leon. I set my Leon to forward all calls to my TPO number and put the TPO SIM in my Note 5. When I decided I was going to keep T-Mobile, I took the SIM from my Leon and placed it back in my Note 5 and all of my call forwarding settings went with the SIM.

We all have them lol.
The issue is because of VoLTE/HDVoice. You cannot provision those on a proper build.
Go online to ATT.com and click on the support tab, open a chat and have a tech manually set your conditional forwarding options.
I just had to do this myself.
You can try to hack around it as mentioned above but it doesn't tend to stick and will need to be reset. Online support is the only way to properly get it configured.

I've made a few posts about this, there is a provisioning bug that doesn't process the carrier XMLs/.prop's properly.
After a reset or anything similar be sure to boot the phone WITHOUT the SIM installed, let it fully boot and get through the welcome/setup portion until you see the home screen.
Then insert the SIM and you should trigger the carrier provisioning option. It'll tell you it needs to reboot and then should allow you to pick the carrier and finish provisioning.
Alternately
You can insert a SIM from another carrier and that will reset the provisioning. Then re-insert your SIM and go through provisioning again.
I had the same issue for days and finally sorted it out. I have VoLTE/HDVoice active and it works with almost ALL phone numbers dialed not just other VoLTE/HDVoice users.
Anyone with sprint having visual voicemail issues?
It seems they FINALLY released an app in the app store for unlocked models! yay!!! but it doesn't work. It hangs trying to activate like the manual apk install ones lol.
It will ONLY show in play store if you are on unlocked model and search for sprint visual voicemail. It has 0 reviews.
So I cross flashed my phone to Sprint FW as I wanted Calling Plus anyway so figure that will get me VM and ha, nope. So that one doens't do activation error it just never tells you that a voicemail came.
If you try to change any settings like advertisement options it times out talking to the server it claims.
So either me trying the new one first broke something on my account.
Activating an unlocked one broke something on the account (many times on activation they blow features away and re-add etc.)
Some other random issue.
I spent 2 hours on phone with sprint and they couldn't fix. They didn't ask about unlocked vs branded phone and I didn't really want to bring up I cross flashed and it worked in the past but who knows what it could be.
They sent a tkt in to a 3rd level I get to wait to hear back.
Anyone else having VM notification issues with sprint on locked or unlocked? Have you tried the app if you are unlocked or cross flashed and had luck?
I have an unlocked version on Sprint as well but I can't find the Visual Voicemail App in the play store. Is there any way you can link it? I can try it out and report back.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sprint.vvm
But do it from phone. On PC it says not avil in my country oddly. I also can't find it searching, it seems to only show up if your model is the unlocked one as since I flashed my phone to sprint now it doesn't show in search just my library from when I tried before flashing.
I tell you sprint is pissing me off though. VVM still not working and even flashed premium caller ID doesn't work. It fails to activate. On sprint side it knows it's unlocked device still so it restricts things out still it seems.
Basically only thing I have gained is calling plus (fake VoLTE).
Hmm I can't even download through my phone over LTE. It does the same thing "not available in this country" and "Item not found" in the play store. Very weird!
I got mine through Sprint, and VVM works fine.
Would love the answer to this been waiting months. The app store says this is not compatible with my model (so plus)

Yea iknow about it but i want to use the Samsung VVM app. So i im trying to get into on how to make it happen ?
MetroPCS used to charge 5 bucks for that, is it free now? Possible all you need to do would be call them and have them push out a cfg file.
EDIT: I just realized that it's not showing on my phone. All I had to do was call Consumer Cellular and they enabled it on my phone. I was told that they enable it by customer request because many customers like myself just swap sims without calling in and they don't know if the customers phone supports it.
After doing some research it looks like the visual voicemail on the S9 has major problems. Many people are talking about this on the Samsung Forums. I downloaded the AT&T app and it works well though. I get a pop-up when a voicemail is available and it works seamlessly.

it's possible but about the cfg. i know thats the case with the iphone.
But to correcty you on the SIM, they marry sim to the IMEI so you have to call in order to swap.

You may have to call to swap on MetroPCS but I don't. I called and got it enabled but like all those folks in Samsung Forums, it's not available in my dialer but the AT&T app works perfectly.

I used nova launcher to look at someone of the hidden/dormant apps and such so i know it exists. maybe this is something that would take some grunt work to unlock on our devices lol

I guess I'm lucky the app works because that is my only option. Apparently if you purchas an unlocked phone to bypass some of the carrier junk you also don't get some of the carrier features. Samsung has this to say about unlocked phones and visual voicemail in particular.

Thank you for contacting Samsung Technical Support.
We understand that you want to know why Visual Voicemail is not available in the phone. We will provide you with available information.
We are unable to speculate which model phone you are referring to.
If you are referring to latest Samsung US model unlocked version phones, the Visual Voicemail option will not available in the unlocked phones.
If carrier provides Visual Voicemail services for unlocked phones you can use them in the unlocked version phone.
As you are referring to AT&T carrier you cannot use the Visual Voicemail service in the phone as the AT&T will not provide Visual Voicemail for unlocked phones.
Carriers like Sprint and T-Mobile provide Visual Voicemail for the unlocked phones.
We cannot include Visual Voicemail feature in the phone.

Thank you for contacting Samsung Technical Support.
We understand that you want to know why Visual Voicemail is not available in the phone. We will provide you with available information.
We are unable to speculate which model phone you are referring to.
If you are referring to latest Samsung US model unlocked version phones, the Visual Voicemail option will not available in the unlocked phones.
If carrier provides Visual Voicemail services for unlocked phones you can use them in the unlocked version phone.
As you are referring to AT&T carrier you cannot use the Visual Voicemail service in the phone as the AT&T will not provide Visual Voicemail for unlocked phones.
Carriers like Sprint and T-Mobile provide Visual Voicemail for the unlocked phones.
We cannot include Visual Voicemail feature in the phone.

It should work according to that

It possibly should for you. Actually I'm glad I'm not forced to use Samsung's dialer. I like the Google dialer much better and since AT&T isn't going to let me have VV on the default dialer, I can use the AT&T app along with the dialer I like.
This is the Verizon Note 10+ 5G, for those who may not know.
Once the device is released, this will be available via SamFirm and other sources, so I'm really only providing this now as early access, for anyone that wants to dig in and play around and see what they can find, etc.
I compress extra small for space and bandwidth savings. The default Windows extractor can't handle it, so you'll need a 3rd party tool like 7zip, WinRAR, etc
Happy flashing!

Are you aware if there any universal (unlocked) firmwares available for this model, or do you have any suggestions for adding Samsung Cloud that Verizon intentionally removed??

There will never be a U1 model, so no U1 firmwares. No idea on Samsung Cloud - maybe start a thread about it?

you can install cloud from the app store..
the device has two csc.. GCF and VZW.. however once unlocked any carrier should work minus the 5G stuff which im sure is vzw onky on this model.. i have used with sprint and tmo sims and they work..
besides the vzw bloat its just as good..

Maybe you can answer my question: mine is a SM-976N korean model, everything works fine as it's factory unlocked even if KT branded, do you think the 5G stuffs may be available only with a KT SIM?

i have no idea... im in usa and have the verizon model.. although they have 5g aroubd ne i havent gone out to fibd/try it yet even on my own device lol..
i want to say like anything else if the device and your carrier support the same 5g bands then i would assume it should work..
here in usa tho each carrier has their own bands and the devices only support the specific carriers 5g bands so far

Any way to change the CSC without wiping data?

The CSC can't be changed on a N976V
Updated, but wondering if it will prevent 5G access.

What's the point/purpose of changing it?
Without being explicit, it allows you to run an app service with a GUDP plan that would otherwise be blocked Only concern is if it will prevent 5G access.. no change to APN and LTE seems to work fine but wasn't sure...

The app store does NOT even offer Samsung Cloud for Verizon devices. Furthermore, even after downloading Samsung Cloud from alternate sources, for whatever reason, Verizon has somehow managed to block the installation of it...
If you have a workaround, I'm all ears...

It must require some underlying app or framework in order to be installed and run

I'm pretty sure you get that message because it is already installed but blacklisted in the vzw csc. Of course you'd need root to change that though.
***This is why i'm strongly considering getting the chinese snapdragon vs.... (im on tmobile).....but they play around with the csc and block stuff too that i have unlocked on my note 8 thanks to root.

verizon does block it to an extent but if u want cloud its very easy to allow it.. just change the csc to GCF.. if u dont want it to stay on gcf then u could experiment with it.. i believe once its installed then switchin back to vzw might b ok?
if u dunno how to change csc u can use *#272*IMEI#
i do not recommend u use the DEV/QA function since u mighthave a hard time changing it back from gcf (DEV/QA makes it to wherecscdoesntchange when a sim card is inserted andstays whatever itsset to) since gcf doesnt have a way to get to the csc menu

For the dialer code, do I actually have to input my IMEI number??
...because simply typing 'IMEI' in the T9 dialer does not do anything.
Kinda confused on this one. Would you mind clarifying?? Thanks in advance...
