what where?
I didn't see it ?????????
I went to the store this morning and they said if you have the newest sim which comes with the phone, then you will see it in settings.
There is no wifi calling at launch, you do need to use the new sim in order to support a new wifi calling feature later this year

I Havent got mine yet but my wife works there and supposedly you have to use the sim card that comes with the phone
Can someone who has the phone actually try to initiate a call with wifi calling?
You have to have the new sim that came with the phone. This will not work with an old sim from your previous phone.
I'm using the new sim that was in the box, and i'm not seeing how to initiate wifi calling.

I am using the new SIM. I am connected to Wifi. I don't see any Wifi calling options anywhere...

There should be a check box in the same screen wifi was initiated in.

Nope... I see only two checkboxes... Wifi (Enable/Disable) and Network notification... below that is WPS button conneciton and then the list of wireless networks.
I appreciate you looking onto it. That sucks if that option isn't or doesn't become available.
i took mines back because of this and hotspot being blocked.. grrrrr
Okay back i called t-mobile a couple of times. They thought the people were talking about sip, skype, voip calling. Not the wifi calling that t-mobile made. The one that seem to most tech savy rep said there will be a patch to add it but don't know when it will come. The amaze 4g already has it build in under wireless settings.

Not enough for me to return the phone but really need that option. Oh well....now we wait
For kicks I installed Kineto (Wifi Calling app) and tried to run it... immediately FCs. Oh well. Perhaps this feature can be "unlocked" with a custom ROM that re-adds SIP support to the device. I thought I read somewhere that it is excluded by default.

we would have to wait till samsung makes a wifi calling as the one we have now uses htc libs. Sip support is there just not wifi calling for t-mobile sip comes with all gingerbread phones.

Wifi calling

Does T-Mobile wifi calling work?
Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
No. That is a carrier feature. You have to buy your phone from t-mobile if you need that.

That's not true. Its a software feature. HTC 10 unlocked from htc.com support wifi calling. CM13 supports wifi calling.

The true findings have not been reported yet. CM13 has "unlocked" through what they call trickery, but has not been reported to work on all devices. This topic comes up at every unlocked phone thread I have seen. It most likely will work on devices that either were purchased at T-Mobile or that have radios with the ability to place Wi-Fi calls (any phone compatible with project-fi). There are reports of the nexus 5 on cm13 not being able to use this, but the 5x (with it's Wi-Fi calling ability) to use it. The HTC 10 has the ability to make Wi-Fi calls natively (the radio supports it) on android N, so using it on t-mobiles WiFi calling makes sense. But, until there is confirmation that the oneplus 3 has this ability, then I'm going to say it probably won't work. I could very well be wrong, but I can't find anything proving it works on all devices right now.

Can't say for the op3, but definitely is not on the op2. My Buddy has stock oxy OS, and it's not there.

Yeah no wifi calling and no ok google from a locked screen...I'll hold off and see if they update these, if not, probably move to the next nexus.
I just received my op3... No wifi calling option with T-Mobile. I hope they add it. My 6p came from project Fi and does work with wifi calling on T-Mobile.

If they ever get it working let me know. I'll also hold of until Wi-Fi calling works.
Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
seems wifi calling is still in the settings menu, but it disabled as soon as you toggle it and leave. CM13 on the nexus 6p has working wifi calling, so the device itself doesn't have to come from t-mobile to work. Still hoping this is not radio firmware related. Waiting for a decent CM13 port to see if there's a chance there. If anyone has flashed one of the two cm13 ports on their op3, is the wifi calling option visible in the settings menu?
It is equipped, but 1+ has to pay T-Mobile to test it and approve for use. 1+ says they won't. Maybe we can remind them we want it.

It depends. I wouldn't pay for Wi-Fi calling and I'll be damned if I'm going to be forced to pay it through some price increase just to appease a minority. There are other ways to achieve Wi-Fi calling that doesn't involve carrier support like WhatsApp
How do you call a landline on whatsapp. How do you receive calls to your phone number on whatsapp. There really aren't many full VoIP wifi calling solutions available, and none of them are even as close in integration or as seamless as the native implementation. Cant speak for most carriers, but it's free on T-Mobile. I can relate to not wanting to pay for features you don't have use of, but the same could be said for volte calling or LTE in general.

There is WiFi calling in the settings. Search for it. I'm attaching screenshot of my OOS 3.2.4 unrooted having WiFi calling option in setting.
And also it does support Ok Google from lock screen. Just Google it how to make it work...

If you are on the stock OOS 3.2.4 it's there.
Go to settings, in the search bar type "pre".
Select " calling preference"
WiFi calling should come

I don't use it but the option is also in exodus Rom, and probably in many roms as it's in Android sources.
Im going to try porting the wifi calling app and frameworks over from . T-Mobile LG G5.

How to Activate HD calling on T Mobile?

I have Just updated my phone to marshmallow hoping to get wi-fi calling but it still asks to activate advanced calling.
Is there any chance that i can bypass this to get wi-fi calling?
Also in case if i ask my friend to activate it using his SIM and later insert my T mobile sim will i still be able to use it?
Thanks in advance

Some people here have had to get Verizon to set HD calling up for them, especially if they've had it turned off. T-Mobile may be the same way.
If I recall, Verizon users were able to turn the feature on online.

Then I'm afraid you're stuck. It looks like HD calling is a prerequisite for wifi calling. Both, while sharing the same technical standards, are run by the carriers.

Network changes to H+ when in call

Hi,
As anyone noticed that their network changes to H+ from 4G/LTE when in call ?
I'm in Canada with Videotron, and I have 4G/LTE displayed all the time on my data connection, however when in Call it's always showing H+.
All is working for now, but I'm wondering if this could interfere with VoLTE when it finally gets activated on my network.
Thanks.
I noticed this on T-Mobile in the US. I didn't have voLTE enabled at the time because it wasn't enable by default out of the box. With voLTE enabled it stays on LTE
Volte disabled out of the box, enable volte, and it wont switch to hsdpa during calls.

After some research, it looks like Volte doesn't work on most BYOD's on ATT.

I figured as much, wifi calling as well ...
Yeah, all you AT&T users tweet, call, email etc anyone and everyone in AT&T including support and complain long and loud about AT&T's painful no VoLTE and VoWiFi policy on none at&t branded phones. its crazy.. better yet, just screw em and go to TMO...
A short work around for is to use a 3rd party app such as TExtNow the only downside you wont be using your Number.
