> It took me forever to realize that I had to download the T-Mobile voicemail app to get my voicemail

That's all he says. Nowhere in the post he says voicemail didn't work - he implies he wanted an app to get his Voicemail like iOS. The regular voicemail stuff just works on any stock Android GSM phone - you get a notification for new ones and you can tap that or long press 1 to go to carrier voice mail box for your old VMEs.

He never says like iOS. you are inserting that. he says he never realized that, in order to get his voicemail (and i read that as to get it in any way shape or form), he had to download t mobiles app.

Nitpicking much? iOS started the Visual Voice Mail thing. No GSM, non-iPhone user is used to using Visual Voice Mail App - they pretty much tap the VME notification or long dial 1 to get to voice mail - that still works on any unlocked Android with any GSM carrier.
