Full signal, cannot receive calls

I have noticed over the last several months that I have not been receiving calls while at my office. I have full signal showing in the status bar and signal strength shows at -90 dBm 50 asu on LTE. While not directly next to a window, I do have line of sight to a wall of windows about 15 yards away. I often only find out about the missed calls one of two ways: text message or voicemail from the caller, and I only get the voicemail notification if I move to another location within the building. I have 2 other lines on my account and my line is the only one this regularly happens to.Quick device info:Pixel 2 XL carrier unlocked, Android 10 with December security patch, default APN settings imported from Cricket during initial setup

Video Call - LG Stylo 5

Hello, I'm trying to figure out how to video call from an LG Stylo 5, but can't figure it out. I checked the phone settings but I do not see a video call tab settings. Do I have to activate something before or do I have to do it from an app to video call?

Unlock My Nokia!

I bought a Nokia offline, was told I can unlock it because they had bought the phone out right. I confirmed the phone is legit but Cricket refuses to unlock the phone until I activate it for 6 months! I don't have Cricket due to crappy service in my area. UNLOCK MY PHONE PLEASE!

Cricket app with Moto G7

I have seen a post that cricket knew the my cricket app was not working on the Moto G7 and a LG phone. This was posted back in May of this year. Wondering were the fix for this is. What is taking so long. I need to unlock my phone for overseas use and got an unlock code but have to use the mycricket app to unlock. Now I have to wait 3-5 business days for someone from tech support to call me This is totally unacceptable. Why do company's sell a product that they know does not function 100%.

Call and Text Reminer Alerts

I'm sure this is somewhere, but I can't find it. I need text and call reminder alerts, but I can't find a setting to turn it on. When a call or a text comes in, I get the initial alert tone or ring tone, but if I miss the call or text, the phone doesn't give me any more alert tones that I have a missed call or message. If the phone is in my purse or if I leave it on my desk when I leave the room, I miss the initial alert/ring. People are really getting annoyed at me that I'm missing their texts or not responding to their phone calls that I'm constantly having to check the phone to see if I missed anything. My previous phone would give an alert beep every 8 or 10 minutes until I viewed the missed message or checked the call list for the missed call. I want this phone to do that, too. How can I make it do that?

Cricket apps not installing

I have disabled MY CRICKET and the CRICKET VISUAL VOICEMAIL on my moto e5 cruise phone because the apps download but do not install. I get a notice that the could not install, yet all other apps on my phone can with no problem. I have an external drive so lack of storage can't be the issue. When I get a system update, these 2 apps are re-enabled. Yet they still do not install on my phone & I have to go in & uninstall/disable the apps again.Is there a logical explanation why these 2 Cricket apps do not work? They are a waste of my time & effort.

Wizard Unite/Pokémon Go

So I have an unlimited data plan and I have the LG stylo 5. Everything works fine when I'm connected to my home wifi, but the minute I try to open up a game like wizards unite or Pokémon go while I'm outside, they take ages to load and don't work properly. Does this happen to anyone else? Or does anyone know what I can do to fix it?

Unable to send Group messages or MMS messages with pictures/gifs

We are new to Cricket service since August, have noticed recently I am unable to send any text messages from within the default message app on my Samsung S7 to a group of people, any that contains pictures or any gifs.  I've tried doing all the things I found on the internet including restarting my phone, resetting the APN settings and restarting my phone, and I checked the message center number which is 312-314-9810.  It spins and spins for about 5 minutes, then errors out and says Message not sent.  Can someone please help with this?  Very frustrating.  I had AT&T prior and did not have this problem at all.  I have unlimited data on this phone and this seems to have become a problem in the last month that I've noriced.

Very delayed voice message

Hi, I don't have my phone on all the time but today when I turned it on, it said I had a voice mail (which I couldn't hear) so I checked my call logs and was surprised two people had called but it was 6 days ago that they called and apparently one left me a voicemail. Is this normal for this kind of delay and what can I do about it?Thank you, Martha

Voicemail-waiting notification

My wife uses an LG Harmony phone running Android 7.0.  When there is a voicemail waiting for her, a little message-waiting icon shows up in the top line of the phone, among the many other icons that are usually there.I'm looking for an option to display a more prominent notification when there is a voicemail waiting.  Is there anything in the basic phone configuration that I'm missing that could do that?The phone says that Cricket Visual Voicemail is installed, but as best I can tell that doesn't do what I'm looking for.Looking in the app store, my impression is that most of the voicemail apps are for voice-to-text conversion.  I see an app called "Better VoiceMail Notifier Pro" that maybe is what I'm looking for, but its user rating is mediocre.Thanks for any help or advice that you can offer.Ken

Need help choosing between two phones Moto 7 supra and galaxy s9

Hi there!  I'm new to the community.  I am in search of some wisdom.  I am trying to decide between the Moto 7 Supra and the Galaxy s9.  I am in the process of becoming a single mom, but I do need a good working phone that will last me a while and will do more than just be a basic phone.  Both of these phones seem to have decent ratings, but I'd love to hear your pros and cons.  Or even better, someone who has used them both.  The price on the Galaxy is more expensive, so not spending as much would be great.  But I don't want to spend it if the cheaper phone is comparable and dependable.  I definitely need dependable, something where the OS will be supported for a decent amount of time (I have old phone/mac that are not supported anymore on many sites including bank.)Thanks for your hellp!

Email problems

I just got my new cricket wireless phone, LG Stylo 3, 2 days ago and am having all kinds of problems. This post will just be about email. I tried setting up my email account and it went through but most of the time I can't send anything out and only a few emails come in. So I created a yahoo account just for trying on the LG Stylo 3 and I can log in fine with both my computers and my iPad but when trying to set it up on the LG Stylo 3, it kept telling me my sign in information was incorrect. I tried a good 10 times and each time the information was correct. I had copied and pasted the information and printed it out. Am I having major software problems? Is anyone else having problems creating email accounts? I can't move my apps around either or create folders. Please advise. Thank you, Martha

Configure hotspot remotely

I have the Turbo Hotspot (Netgear AC797S) at a remote location connected to web cams and smart thermostats.  I'd like to have the ability to change the configuration as needed at home without being physically at the remote location.  Is there a way to do this?  The port forwarding option only lists the wifi connected devices and not the hotspot itself.

Unlock code

Hi, I have a Moto G7 Supra which was purchased from Cricket and I have had it for over 6 months with them.  I'm trying to get it unlocked but I'm having problems.When I go to my online account and try, it says I must use the "mycricket app" in order to get the code.  If I go to the "mycricket app" and try, it says "sorry this device cannot be unlocked.I believe I meet all eligibility requirements as I have been paying for over 6 months now and it's a Cricket phone paid in full with no restrictions that I know of.
