Nexus 4 Tmobile support docs - Wifi calling confirmed ?

Just checked Tmobile support site and they already uploaded Nexus 4 support documents.
Tmobile support site /docs/DOC-5015 (sorry, not enough posts count to post link.)
Wifi calling is clearly listed there and supported. (In contrast, Visual VM is listed as not support)
They require a TM9-177 sim card but the 99c microSIM from Tmobile is TM9-190. Not sure if that will make a diff.
Keep my fingers crossed for now.

Here's the link
http://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-5015#WiFi_Calling

I realize the answer is probably no but still want to ask. Would a straight talk t mobile sim enable WiFi calling? If not where does WiFi calling start (eg t mobile prepaid, two year contract)?

T-mobile's 99 cent sim card is full size. the 177 may be the micro version. I plan to cut my own.

It appears to be a setting on the OS itself, like a voip setting:
see below: there is no wifi calling app:
Set up Wi-Fi / Internet Calling
To turn on Wi-Fi Calling, follow these steps:
Important: To use Wi-Fi Calling, you must register your 9-1-1 address at my.t-mobile.com. If you have not registered your address, your phone will display a red Wi-Fi Calling icon. When you open the Notification screen, you will see the following error message: Wi-Fi Calling error. Error: REG09 "Missing911 Address."
From any Home screen, tap the Phone icon.
Tap the Menu icon.
Tap Settings.
Scroll to and tap Internet call settings.
Under Account, set up a new calling account with information specific to your calling plan..

Again, T-Mobile is not allowed to mess with the software or Google wouldn't let them sell it. So WiFi calling in an app form will not happen. What the user said above about setting up WiFi calling is different, and that is fine since its within the software

Exactly, I have made the imp information bold now. Document does not say launch wifi calling app to enable it. There is no wifi calling app installed. It says go to Phone app and set it up. Looks like tmobile is using Androids VOIP feature?

I don't think you quite understood my question. Straight talk works on both tmobile and att depending on the sim you get. My questions is if you can use the wifi calling through them. If you could the tmobile would be awesome becasue it has faster data and less coverage. The coverage would work better via wifi if the signal was low otherwise.

Man I really hope so. That's the one thing I really miss about my old tmo phones. I don't use wifi calling often but its a big help to have when its needed like at a hospital with wifi

I think so too.

Are we talking about WiFi calling now being like sip?

I am speculating this. Can people with GNex try to follow the steps in the document and see if it works?
If it is an OS (4.1 or 4.2) feature and tmobile has worked around it to accommodate wifi calling then it should work on Gnex as well.

The document doesn't actually give you the sip settings so I see no way to add an account without that info.

Wifi calling doesn't mean much to me since I don't use a lot of minutes anyways. But this is good for everyone else that does.

So looks like google has added in wifi calling. Smooth

It has been present for a long time (SIP calling) in Android. It just looks like T-mobile has actually implemented SIP.

Back on topic... I'm getting the Nexus 4 from Google. PLEASE, OH PLEASE tell me they will let me have Wi-Fi calling!
I use monthly4G and loved Wi-Fi calling on my Exhibit for my area because of poor reception.

[Q] Has anyone manage to connect to metro pcs gsm?

I figured I would try asking. I get edge data and calls are working. No 4G though and I havent tried MMS yet. I called metro's tech support for their apn settings and they don't seem to work.
If you have your ATT Note 3 working on Metro's gsm service, please share your settings/experience here. Any ideas on how to get this working would also be great. Thanks in advance! :good:

I bought two Note 3s and gave one to my friend who's on metro. Everything works perfect for him, 4g, MMS and everything else.
He Input his APN settings so I'm not sure if he did anything else. When I get off work in the morning I'll ask him if he did anything specific besides the APN settings and let you know.

This may be a dumb question but did you switch your network mode to LTE/WCDMA/GSM option?

Yeah, I have tried LTE/GSM auto; LTE/GSM/CDMA auto; and a few different other ones. I always only end up with edge.

I have a question for you, did you buy the phone and stick your sim card in, or did you actually go to the Metro store and have them program the sim for the phone? Metro's sim cards work different than most gsm carrier sim cards =/

I went to an actual metro pcs store and bought the sim. The employee scanned the bar code on the back of my phone, so I'm guessing they programmed it specifically for my phone.

Ok so called my friend today. He told me that he didn't input the APN settings, they loaded automatically. It did make an APN profile for him. He sent me the following screenshots.

I also noticed that too! Yes he does normally have 4g/lte. His home is one of the ones where you take one step to the left and you have edge. Happens to me too and I'm on At&t lol. Let me know if you have any luck with it.

How are you suppose to know what the password is and the server as they are just **** in the screen shot?
Sent from my SM-N900T using xda app-developers app

No go on the apn settings. I am planning on driving out to LA sometime later this week and will check out whether this lack of LTE is only in my area. Sucks coming from metro's great cdma service.
Also quickvic has a good point about the password, although I'm thinking tyiphius friend's apn settings were installed automatically

Anyone know where I can buy a N900A note 3 that will work on Metro LTE?

[Video] Verizon On my nexus 5

Took the sim out of my Verizon s4 and was determined to get this N5 up and running on big red.
I have full lte after a lot of tweaks that I probably shouldn't post right now do to what it could possibly do to a phone.
If you are a Dev and think you can do more with this let me know and I'll get you to where I'm at. I'm just a themer with basic dev knowledge. As you can see there is no signal to text or call. I've had bars a few times but that's it. As you see I'm on L. I had to crop one screen on phone because of upload size restrictions.

Looks interesting so far. I can't recall whether this device supports VZW's frequencies. If not, calls may never work.
I'll assume you modified the APN for VZW. Did you try modifying the radio?
If you post what you did to get data working, other members may have some additional suggestions to get you moving again.

its been gotten to, the lte connecting. but it's the calling ability that cant be done. i dont remember what all really came about, but i do remember thst the calling ability is the real issue. the nexus 5 doesnt have the ability to make phonecalls via lte. if you search the forums here, maybe you can find the thread.

Calls won't work for two reasons 1) I don't think Verizon uses VoLTE yet, and 2) calls still use 1x, just like Sprint, and you have to have the MEID (IMEI minus last digit I believe) in Verizon's database. Technically it should work on Page Plus and I think I saw a thread here on how to flash it for PP. I'm kind of surprised Verizon LTE works as most of the bands for Verizon's LTE don't coincide with the N5 IIRC. I could be wrong about that though. Also it's probably like any other GSM carrier, once you activate the SIM card in a carrier based phone, you can stick it in another phone and it should just activate. The only reason you have to change IMEIs is for the EVDO/1x backwards compatibility.

i may return to big red, im currently testing out net 10

Posted a video of me getting data after a fresh wipe and install of L.

http://www.droid-life.com/2014/08/26/verizon-volte-hd-voice-launch/

I really need to remember to watch OP's video when I get home. This is very exciting. So to get data, you had to activate a Verizon device and swap SIMs, right? After that, the only thing not working is the CDMA voice? So in theory, if the above poser's link is correct (Verizon rolling out VoLTE soon) I could actually switch to them?
It's Verizon so I probably wouldn't do it permanently, but it would be cool to try for a month, if for nothing more than a proof of concept or neat trick. Hope Verizon does that soon.

This just won't work bro, not on CDMA.
I worked for Sprint and their system is the same.
The SIM card is strictly for LTE, everything else goes over the CDMA network, which requires server authentication.
Even when VoLTE will roll out, that authentication will remain in place.

People have got data in the past. Its voice that's the issue.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

he can get voice & sms on it, though not via the sim card number;
I replied to the video with -
"..though it won't be your Verizon mobile number;
you could try using ring.to / grooveIP for voice / sms via the lte connection..
I use that as a back up number on sprint, mostly for lte , wifi , evdo routed calls,
even gsm / hspa+ & wifi when sim swapped out of the country on my nexus 5.
after editing the echo settings, it should work wonders thru that Verizon lte connection.."

just thought of something, real simple..
the cdma radio authentication is what's stopping the nexus 5 from being on Verizon,
but... **does the lte band need the same authentication**?
let's just say, on my nexus 5, with the new google voice hangouts / sprint number integration,
i go through the dialer into settings to toggle **lte only** which disables the cdma radio,
pop in a Verizon unlimited data sim, in an area with verizon's band 4..
over the top, voip service on lte..?

Note 9 us version on tmobile

Hi guys,
I'm new here and want to get yalls opinion and expertise if the unlocked US version Note 9 will work fully on tmobile network? I got it from b&h photo as it has a lot of freebies (Dex and the new dual charger) plus there's no tax.
No. 1 priority for me is if tmobile band 71 will work on this us version note 9.
Thank you in advance for all your comments and suggestions.

Great question. As far as I can tell, it has Band 71 (600mhz)...
I think TM uses some of the lowest frequencies over other carriers, like their cement drilling band 71....aweosme.
See pic attached.

It should work with all bands. Just don't expect HD voice, VOLTE or Wi-Fi calling to work.

It will absolutely have Wi-Fi calling and VoLTE. I've had several unlocked phones with them and they all offer both options. T-Mobile is very open to outside devices.

I appreciate y'alls reply.
I've read you can flash tmo's firmware with this unlocked phones to get tmo features, is that true?

thanks for the link; i figured out the codes shortly after posting my message.

Rather than turning off band that provider might actually use in some situations, try turning off band that you possibly won't use, like band 39, or whatever.
See if that fixes preference to band 4, while still maintaining band 12 for odd situation.
I'm only saying this, because in Canada for provider freedom, band 66 is the fastest, and international phones actually prefer to connect to band 4 which is the slowest for this particular provider. Since we don't have access to modem settings since oreo, I found that disabling any of the unused bands (30,46,39 whatever), brings back proper behaviour like Canadian model counterparts, choosing band 66 majority of times, while still maintaining band 4 for building penetration.
Just try, give a few minutes, check on *#0011#, see if you're still defaulting to 12, or something else with more throughput, might work, might not.
