I have already spoke to Verizon and Samsung support. I would like to see if anyone can confirm what Samsung support says from experience. I am very experienced in Cellular technology and have worked in tech for 37 years. I am an old geek, 73. I am very well red and experienced in connected devices on verizon and the Samsung feature (Call & Text on other devices) that Verizon has always disabled through device firmware and or though their network.
Equipment is Samsung tab S8 plus and Zfold 5. Both Verizon versions.
I have been getting my phone calls on my tablet since I bought the devices via the Verizon supported method of Verizon messages plus app. Verizon has now dropped support for the massages plus app. yes, the very one that they made us use after they blocked the native Samsung feature. Go figure. Verizon does not have an alternative phone call on tablet solution. Samsung support is telling me something I want to believe but have my doubts that the tech understood me. He said if my phone and tablet were unlocked on Verizon network the Samsung feature would work. He spoke the problem was in the devices not blocked on the Verizon cloud. Has anyone got (Call & Text on other devices) to work with unlocked devices on Verizon? I have got it to work over WI-FI with my gear, but it will not work over cellular even connecting the two devices via hotspot with hotspot coming from tablet or phone. I could easily trade for unlocked devices, but I am not convinced it will work. Sorry for the long post! I'll take all the help I can get!
Just testing as I had trouble posting.
