Apple, Samsung and Google all offer phones directly on their respective web stores that are 100% compatible with the T-Mobile network. During device selection or checkout you may be asked to choose T-Mobile as a carrier, otherwise select “unlocked”
If you don’t buy directly from one of these web stores, you can use iPhone model 11 or newer, Samsung Galaxy 9 or newer, as long as the phone is unlocked and you verify with the T-Mobile Bring Your Own checker: https://www.t-mobile.com/resources/bring-your-own-phone

Your T-Mobile service includes Voice Mail. You may personalize your voice mailbox with your own greeting. To do this you will need to press the #1 key for a few seconds.
Listen to the voice prompts from the system.
If prompted to enter your temporary password, enter the last 4 digits of your mobile number
Set up a new password when prompted.
Follow the prompts to set up your voice mail as you wish.
To ensure that voicemail is fully set up you must listen to the entire voicemail set up.
When this is completed the automated set up instructor will ask if you want to return to the voicemail box, select this option, make sure to return to the regular voicemail. Set up is now complete and you may hang up.
If ever needed you can reset the voicemail password from the dialer by pressing #793# which will default to the last 4 digits of the active phone number on the device.
