Can We Get a Carrier Specific Rom List Please - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Here is the reasoning behind my request.
I am on Tmob and have a N6. I was fine stock rooted on 5.0 then 5.0.1. Then I decided to try a few roms. One that said it was for ALL carriers, didn't allow me to get calls unless I was only in 3g.
T-mobile is the ONLY one using a 47m ROM. All others are at 47i, why is there a difference? The radios most likely. I am 95r and 98r doesn't work on TMobile very well.
Can we get a Thread for EACH Carrier? They aren't all the same, at least from my experience. Sprint, VZW are different and have problems. I hear VZW users need to use 98r for "best results"
Go ahead, blast away. Just waiting for the "senior ops" to go to town on this one!

I'm on vzw and every ROM I've tried is fine. Have you updated to the latest image from google. Or are you still on 5.0.1

With many phones, Samsung in particular - there are massive hardware differences that require several separate forums to manage.
With the nexus 6, the hardware is identical on all of them.
There are 2 specific builds that are slightly different and as you mentioned, they are M and I.
What we think is (but unproven) that M is for T-Mobile USA and I is for Australia. We have no concrete proof of that. Nor am I sure what the differences are. If you're using stock-based ROMs, try to stick to M builds.
As for AOSP, I'm not sure anyone knows what the difference is for T-mo. Maybe one day we'll find out.

Thank You for the Reply.. I would agree with the thinking about M. Like I stated a non-M build killed the incoming calls unless my phone was on 3g with Enhanced 4g unchecked.
I was just asking for a Carrier Specific Rom thread thats all.

Im on a 5.1 with 95r and 47M is my Build (nocturnal rom) its a Tmobile N6.. All other roms killed incoming calls unless I was stock rooted. CleanRom 2.0 and 2.1 with either 98r or 95r had same results. I like @scrosler roms, but can't live without getting business calls.

Yeah. I think its a good idea to have a thread that lists all t-mo compatible ROMs, but first we need to learn what the actual difference is. Perhaps its just a RIL or something. In which case, there may just be a flashable zip required.
I just think we need to know more at this stage.
@efrant, do you know the differences? @simms22?

the aosp roms were missing code that made the tmobile devices not receive calls on lte, that has been fixed and should be in all roms that have been recently updated. i use terminus, which includes the code, so tmobile users get calls on lte, and volte is working. besides that issue that has been fixed, all carriers will work on any aosp rom. theres no such thing as a carrier specific nexus rom.

AOSP contains only Android OS nothing proprietary (proprietaries are included as a standalone) but when Google provided the binaries--proprietary libraries, applications were missing which caused VoLTE not to work properly. Myself and Sykopompos worked on the blobs and having VoLTE working, they were pulled from the factory image / deodexed OTA.

Android Revolution HD with Wi-Fi Calling on T-Mobile

I downloaded the version back in late Spring or early summer (might be 52.0) and remember that I couldn't find Wi-fi calling in it despite it being mentioned somewhere in the change logs. Is the latest version (81.0) supporting it now?

Read Post #3 FAQ #5. If it doesn't specifically state so in the OP then it probably is not supported. However, you might check out this Add-On from the T-Mobile HTC One Forum.

In short, NO, the last version to support T-Mobile WiFi calling (and coincidentally also Sprint phones) is ARHD 31.6
Interesting. Is there a reason why the feature was removed?

i honestly don't know, technically it was never "removed", it was just not added in later releases... at first due to lack of OTA updates, but later on, maybe the person doing the t-mo stuff was no longer supporting it
since mike is nowhere close to T-Mo US, he pretty much has very little chance to test it, and if he was getting support for T-Mo then maybe that person moved on.
is the 4.4.3 T-Mo OTA update out? if it's not, i'm pretty sure it won't be implemented in 8x.x series until the official 4.4.3 T-Mo OTA is out.
Thanks for the information. Didn't know about all of this.

[Q] VoLTE

Answers to this question are either totally unanswered or vague.
Can/will the M7 support VoLTE (Voice over LTE) or not? Three in the UK is upgrading it's network to support VoLTE in the 800mhz frequency range. It would be nice to have it if at all possible. Sadly there is very little info on whether the hardware supports it and if the software (Lolipop and mods) will support it or not on the M7.
Can we have a thread with solid answers as this is quite important for some of us who have reception issues.

I've been searching and curious (without avail) about the same question. I'm currently using Viper/Venom ROM v9.0.0 that uses a base from the M9. The M9 supports VoLTE and thus the option appears in the menu on the M7. However it does not function and if you try to interact with it the phone service crashes. This makes sense since it was developed for M9 hardware. Does this mean it's totally not supported on the M7 from a hardware standpoint - nope. But without the proper software it's not going to happen. Is T-mobile (or whoever your carrier is) going to develop the feature? Probably not. Will google? Maybe, seems to be appearing on google phones as a standardized feature. Same for wifi calling...

With the AICP MM ROM for the m7, I called my mom and it said "VoLTE" in blue letters. I never really took notice of it until after I went back to Sense... I'm going to flash that ROM again and give you an update soon (if not I probably forgot, sorry). And btw I know this thread is very old but I just wanted to chime in and say what I've found

So, that was an interesting and timely reply. I recently upgraded my M9 (s-on) to a firmware that is too new for MM CM so I went back to my M7 for a while. It's still on a sense based rom but I may give AICP MM a spin on my M7- thanks!
:edit
Now that I think about it, the only reason I upgraded to the M9 was for VoLTE, the M7 is the perfect size phone, god how ridiculous new phones are these days, every iteration just a liiiiitttle bit bigger. enough already lol /rant...

Maybe, you didn't remember well, what you've seen? Because I think, it's impossible.
So this thread is a year old (time to re-activate it?), and I wonder about the same issue. I tried on the M7 with different firmwares (european latest hboot 1.61, GPE hboot 1.54), using LineageOS 14.1 (Android N 7.1.2), but with no constellation it's possible to activate VoLTE.
I figured out, that it depends on "the hardware", but IMHO that's not really the reason because the LTE radio chip performs LTE correctly. So I expect it depends in reality on the "radio firmware" to active VoLTE.
And I have never seen a radio firmware for the M7, which is able to perform VoLTE.
If somebody knows about a "patched" or "modified" radio firmware for the M7, to activate VoLTE, please let me know!!! (Because LOS 14.1 runs well, and is -- from the OS side -- able to perform VoLTE).
Thanks a lot,

Thats not true, Lineage in general doesnt support VoLTE. You can read about exacly this on AICP G+ page because a lot of people asked for VoLTE Support. Official answer was "as long as lineage doesnt implement it we dont have it" There are some unofficial Roms for other devices where the maintainer did implement VoLTE. The big problem with VoLTE is, in nearly every country and provider it has a different standard so its not just add something and it works for everyone.
But Guys, do you realy need LTE while your in a Call and 3G isnt enough? I think 42mb/s should be enough for everything and thats what you actually get while in a call. Btw our m7 only has an internal read and write speed at about 5-15mb/s so its useless :silly:

Upgrading a TMO Nexus 6 to MRA58K (correct version)?

Maybe a stupid question but couldn't find this addressed anywhere. In the last couple versions TMO Nexus' have had their own version, I'm assuming because of WiFi calling, is that not the case anymore? Seems their all going to run MRA58K from what I see. I have the the OTA upgrade zip from my version but was thinking a clean install was better. Just didn't want to botch anything. Anybody know about this?
WiFi calling is built in now so yeah, just use the same version as everyone else.

There is only version of Android 6.0 (MRA58K). It is a unified build for all carriers. But you will loose support for LTE band 12 on T-mobile. There's another thread about that issue in this Q&A section.

Not sure, I'm in Richmond, VA I considered that though, seems I'm on Band 4 right now. It's a decently populated area with a couple million in the Metro but If you don't have it there, we probably won't for a while. Either way seems like by the time it's here it will be enabled anyways.
Thanks for the help guys.
Yeah I don't think we have it in the Virginia Beach/ Norfolk area either. I excited to get to the end of the year when the roll out should be over

Well, so just fyi, with the benefit of hindsight one month later --- MRA58K wasn't actually a unified build. I flashed it, based on posts like this (yours certainly wasn't the only one). Now, of course, I learn that the official TMo build of Marshmallow for Nexus 6 is MRA58X. There is some mention of an OTA from K to X, but I think I have heard that before..... Am about to downgrade to last official TMo Lollipop, and take OTA to MRA58X, and be a happy, patient little TMo camper from now on.

And, FWIW, it's closer to two months... Unfortunately, neither Google, nor the carriers publish much information about their plans for carrier specific builds. So one has to take everything with a "grain of salt" here. Sorry if this caused you any issues....

Did MRA58K cause any T-Mo specific issues for you? I used MRA58K on T-Mo since the day it was released (till yesterday when I flashed MMB29K) - it worked just fine. I had Band 12 coverage, and WiFi Calling, and free in-flight Gogo Texting etc. I did read that T-Mo had announced their build was MRA58X, and I would have flashed that, if the factory images had been available before yesterday - but MRA58K worked just fine. (MMB29K is working fine as well)

It seemed to work fine. This week, I missed a couple of text messages, and so I have been trying to troubleshoot. I really don't know if it was the culprit, but along the way I discovered that MRA58X is the official, TMo build. I don't really have any specific reason to believe the wrong build was the culprit, but I just decided to rip off the bandaid and flash it. I am one of those on the fringes of being comfortable with flashing images, etc. I have just decided I am sticking with OTA direct from the carrier from now on. I don't like injecting variables into the stability of my experience (I realize I should just get off XDA then!! But then a month goes by and I get a little bored....)

Anyone received OTA for Marshmallow on T-mobile?

Anyone received OTA for Marshmallow on T-mobile?
If you received, when did you received it?
Negative on my end still waiting prob gonna root soon
Stll waiting but got it on my N5 on 10/8 (AT&T) and on my N9 on 10/14.
Been waiting for this myself. Checked T-Mobile's software update site and is still shows Android 6 as "In Testing" for the N6.
its not in testing, marshmallow has been released for the nexus 6. just go grab the factory image, and apply it yourself, manually.
Yes, their specific build, IS in testing.
Currently available build is stock Google build. "Should" work well enough as a daily driver. But I'm sure T-Mobile will make some tweaks for WiFi calling and band 12

Google has tested it. But T-Mobile is still doing acceptance testing. Click the Nexus 6 link on this interactive page at T-mobile.s site. At this moment, it shows the status to be "T-Mobile Testing," which is described as this: "During this stage, the device will go through T-Mobile certification process testing to make sure you get the best quality software possible."
Flashed manually. WiFi calling works just fine.

Yes. No one will stop you. But "can" does not necessarily equal "should." There are reports in this forum that there might be issues specific to T-Mobile when this build is flashed. Maybe that's why they call it "testing."

There have been questions about Mm6 on the Nexus6 and T-Mobile band12 support.
The Nexus6 was one of the two or three phones to support band12 on release. Since then, T-Mobile has built out and converted a lot of their towers to band12, and there have been rumors recently that they no longer want the N6 to be able to use band12.
I don't understand those rumors and press reports.
There are also disturbing reports from T-Mobile users who are on Mm6 that their Nexus6 no longer supports band12 without reverting to the last Lollipop radio.
So, I am holding off installing Mm6 OTA on my new Amazon-bought N6, even though it was offered when my Cricket/AIO prepaid SIM was in place as soon as I first booted.
Band12 is important, and will become more important, on T-Mobile.

New to Nexus 6

Hi, I just got a Nexus 6. I want to move to an aosp based rom as soon as possible. I am on t-mobile and wifi calling is a must. My question is does P.A.C. rom support wifi calling and volte like cm 13 does?
If you can't find your answer in the Opening post features list, or by searching the thread on WiFi calling and volte, I suggest taking a nandroid backup and flashing it to find out. :good:

I am not using wifi calling because it is not available here in the Netherlands. .
T-MOBILE want's to earn money with the services they offer. It seems logical to me that this wifi service only works with T-Mobile branded devices.
When you flash an other rom you need to read about the new rom. In the description there must be stated that wifi calling is supported.

You are correct for all devices but the nexus 6. the stock international nexus 6 rom works with their wifi calling and cm 13 does too.

They actually released Lollipop builds but have been largely inactive since then. There are some releases (I believe unofficially) that are floating around on androidfilehost and some other places... But they are in their infancy of Marshmallow. It's based on CM13 with (last time I checked a few weeks ago) not too many features added on top and probably largely considered to be experimental or in the alpha stage of development.
For sure Pure Nexus Project and Dirty Unicorns support wifi calling and I think Chroma and AOSiP do too. Any ROM based on AOSP should really support it but ROMs based on CM13 may or may not. I've seen conflicting information. From a reddit thread, a user said WiFi calling works on CM13 for the Nexus 5X but not his Nexus 5. Nexus 6 I am unsure, but make a nandroid backup of your current setup and go wild on testing different ROMs :good: I can't tell you because I don't have Tmobile anymore (although I did for a short period with my N6)

For sure Pure Nexus Project and Dirty Unicorns support wifi calling and I think Chroma and AOSiP do too. Any ROM based on AOSP should really support it but ROMs based on CM13 may or may not. I've seen conflicting information. From a reddit thread, a user said WiFi calling works on CM13 for the Nexus 5X but not his Nexus 5. Nexus 6 I am unsure, but make a nandroid backup of your current setup and go wild on testing different ROMs :good: I can't tell you because I don't have Tmobile anymore (although I did for a short period with my N6)

Ah, you mean the pacman rom...I used it alot on lollipop, but yeah, not to be seen anywhere since most of us switched to MM..
BTW, almost all the current roms in the N6 dev section have wifi calling now, both the AOSP based ones, and the CM13 based ones...

Oh, thanks for the info. I wasn't aware CM13 had native wifi calling support. I'm glad it's baked into Google AOSP now for Nexus devices. I remember using a Galaxy Note 3 and so bad I wanted to put an AOSP/CM based ROM on it when I had Tmobile but the support for Wifi calling was only available on stock bloatwiz/lagwiz/whatever you want to call the garbage stock firmware. And where I live had zero Tmobile signal. Had to get by with root and wanam xposed. But now I'm back to the glorious nexus master race (and another carrier, so I don't need wifi calling).
Thanks. My last device did not support PAC rom. I was not aware that they are not really active any longer and there is no marshmellow version.
Thanks for all the info.

You are correct for all devices but the nexus 6. the stock international nexus 6 rom works with their wifi calling and cm 13 does too.

What is P.A.C rom?
I got the impression that it is a custom ROM and not the international stock rom.
Its this rom..
