Why is Google Voice not working on my Samsung Galaxy S4 Active on Consumer Cellular (AT&T)

Consumer Cellular on AT&T using Samsung Galaxy S4 Active needing APN advice as Google Voice often fails when on 4G, but is fine on WIFI. Even the Web App does not work. I can still usually call out using google voice, just can't get SMS to stay working when on 4G.

SMS is 2G, not 4G, so that has nothing to do with the APN problem. If SMS fails when 4G is on, contact Consumer Cellular. (SMS and voice calls are the same thing as far as the phone is concerned, they just use different apps.)

As for the APN, see http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...m-samsung-galaxy-s4-mini-duos-gt-19192-a.html (post 2 has the APN itself). The APN is carrier-specific, not phone-specific, so it doesn't matter which phone you have.
