hi
i do receive notification of voice mail when the phone is on and for example im in the shower.
but when im in a meeting(phone off) or on airplain mode and someone record a voicemail, i never get notified and something messages are important you see.

how can i receive (when i turn my phone on) some sort of info that tells me someone has left a voice mail while my phone was off?

Welcome to Android Central! The voicemail notification should still come through at some point after you turn off Airplane Mode. How long are you waiting after turning off Airplane Mode?

If you want a notification while Airplane Mode is off, that's not going to happen, since you're on Airplane Mode (unless you have wi-fi turned on with wi-fi calling active).

Sorry, I don't have an S7. Do you otherwise get voicemail notifications promptly when you're not in Airplane Mode, or does that also seem to lag?

No -- in order to get to Safe Mode, power off first, then power on, and right after it starts to power on, press and hold Vol Down until it boots to the homescreen. It should say it's in Safe Mode.

Hmm, I wonder if it's a bug, then. Let me ask some other Ambassadors who are more familiar with Samsung phones.

You never get notifications for voicemail? Have you tried clearing data , cache , force stop phone app?

The OP does get notifications normally, but the problem is that if Airplane Mode is turned on, and somebody leaves a voicemail message during that time, the OP does not get a voicemail notification once Airplane Mode is turned back off (so in effect, that message could be missed for quite a while unless the OP physically checks for any new voicemails).

I still say clear that phone app in case it's a glitch in it to rule that out .

Long press the phone app>tap info > go to storage > clear data which will clear cache then hit the back button to previous pages and force stop it.
