How to Save a Voicemail Message to a Computer From a MetroPCS Phone Using a USB Cable
One way to retain all of your important MetroPCS voicemail messages is to transfer them from your phone to your computer. By using a compatible USB cable, you place your voicemail messages onto your computer as audio files. The message transfer only works if you have third-party software installed on your phone prior to receiving voicemail messages. Your MetroPCS phone must also be app-enabled, such as an Android or BlackBerry phone.
