Did anyone try the Wifi-Calling app on Infuse ?. Its a popular app on T-mobile, i saw it on the vibrant & works great. I extracted it from the vibrant and installed it on Infuse. It didn't work. It force closes. May be our Infuse kernal wudn't support it.Btw- i am on Infused 2.3.3.
Any help/thoughts ?

Obviously, there's a simple reason.
It's a T-Mobile app ONLY. You need T-Mobile service for it to work, because it connects to their servers with your subscriber info.
tl;dr, It won't work without T-Mobile service.
Wifi calling
so if i unlock it i can use it?
You would need a TMo voice account to use this. Better option is to use SIP with many of the free clients on Android to make wifi calls. GB even has internet calling built in.

I tried with my friends T-Mobile SIM on infuse (my ph is unlocked). So my infuse is on T-Mobile service. I cud make regular calls and data too works fine, but still Wifi-calling app just force closes :-(.

What? My wifi at home is as 'official' as any other network.
I got it to work on the Darky-ROMs. No point in making a new thread so here it is
DarkyRom_T-Mobile_Fix
If you need me to get it working on any other ROM, do let me know.
I know there is a mod in the other section of the Infuse form to get this to work. It is to much for me to understand but maby it will help you.

i had issues with GrooVeIP and ATT, it caused weird echos on several roms on my phone, even if i used ATT to make call, it caused the phone to be unusable, i have it on my old nexus one with no sim card, no issues, anybody else see this?

From what I've read online, Skype is only for Verizon phones. I have downloaded the app onto my Mesmerize, but it won't allow me to log in.
Is there anyway around this?
They way I understand it is that it should work on any 2.1 phone but only on wifi but the vzw version can use on 3g also.
I tryed it to myself and it wont login either

I tried on wifi from several different locations and it wouldn't let me log in either.
After flashing CM7, I've been having trouble with my data network. I have bars, I can make calls and text, but I've never seen a 2g or 3g symbol in my status bar. Sending or receiving MMS is impossible. I've seen snippets of similar problems in some other threads, where they couldn't use their data plan at all. Baseband switcher doesn't work when I select any of the USA Tmobile basebands.
Has anyone had similar problems? Maybe even a solution?
Other info:
Yes, data over mobile network is enabled.
I flashed UK Froyo Retail 2.2.2, and applied CM7. I'll flash Nordic later and reply.
I do not have a data plan, but an unlimited texting plan, so I should be able to send MMS.
Update:
---------------------------------------------------------
Flashed Nordic SBF, and data initially worked fine when I applied CM7. However, after some reboots, restoring some apps, I don't know when exactly but I lost it. Just bars again.
Tried applying some USA T-mobile basebands, and none of them gave me data.
Start all over dude.

That's what I'm thinking.
Back when CM7 was in beta, I still had this issue, with Nordic as my sbf. I flashed back to stock and whoop-dee-do, I had 3G.
When Quarx released his RC, I thought that my problem would have been fixed already. In my paranoia, I thought that if I had a UK Tmobile sbf, I wouldn't have any problems. I still do though. I'll flash Nordic when I can, and come back with the results.
I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem before.
You need to use the basebandswitcher tool to select a US T-Mobile baseband before you can use the 3G network.
I flashed Nordic, the one in the FAQ. I got data now.
Thanks.
I'mbhaving this same issue, and curious to the problem as well, 3G seems alot slower, its not because I dontbhave service I'm running full bars and network is really slow

I lost data now for some reason. None of the usa basebands work.
Any suggestions?
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App
For me, with RC1, often when leaving a WiFi area, data will simply not work unless I completely reboot the phone. *sometimes* switching between 2g and 3g will get it working again.

I live in Austin and I started having that problem starting tuesday Afternoon.l My phone running MIUI 1.6.24 was working fine till then, and then started dropping signal, switching to edge and entering "emergency calls only mode a lot".
I used baseband switcher to switch to a different baseband, but the only way I could access data was with the original MIUI 1.6.24 ROM and even then, only edge.
I tried reflashing the T-MO US SBF as well as the nordic SBF, and I don't get any data any more.
I am going to try to flash CM 7 to see if I still have the problem.

Do you use titanium backup? Maybe it's a setting or app causing this.
I had data when I applied cm7 at first. But I lost it when I began personalizing it.

I am about to travel overseas. I'm not going for long enough to warrant getting a PASYG sim but will have near constant access to wifi. I'm with t-mo USA and have wifi calling set up and use Google voice for texting and vm. What's the easiest way to turn voice and mobile data off but keep wifi on? Best solution I could think of was to take the sim out, are there other better options?
Idk about your phone since im an evo owner but you should be able to turn on airplane mode on your phone and have wifi on at the same time. I do it quite often on my evo actually. So you will have all your carriers radios off so no charges, and still use voice for calls and texts.
Try doing it really quick and report back if u can or can't so I can try to help with another solution
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Edit: ok so this is not perfect. Wifi calling is disabled when in airplane mode, which IMO is stupid. I guess they are trying to get some roaming fees if you leave the Intl wifi signal.
Going to try wifi calling with the sim out.
All but wifi. And no problem

If there is no t-mo sim card, wifi calling is also disabled. I tried with no sim and a UK PAYG sim both same result, no wifi calling.
Well that's two good options that should work but don't.
Ok I found a solution. Send me a pm and I will type you a guide and some screen shots in the afternoon tomorrow. I have to go to bed for work in the morning. So once I get off ill send you instructions on how to do it.

Just recently moved and I have no service with T Mobile so I might be switching to ATT. Is there any ROMs or a way to make wifi calls with ATT without using Skype or another app?

You can also get a microcell, they are a life saver in low signal areas. Sometimes you can get at&t to comp you one to get you to sign up.

Setup google voice and use an app called GrooveIP (http://goo.gl/zDVm8).
That's what I use when I'm outside the coutry to call fro free.
You can receive calls and make calls with just wifi (even hotel room). It's one of the best app I found
if you flash cm/aokp you should be able to use "internet calling" aka sip. There are a few other sip based apps out there that will let you make calls but not with the normal dialer.

I have a microcell as well. I am running Embyro 5.3 with the UCLF6 baseband and the 3.0.42 Cymbaline- RD04-2.7 kernel. I think the microcell is $20 a month for unlimited phone calls. It's running at 3G. I got it before I* switched to cable for my internet access. Works like a charm and I never get close to using up my data plan. I usually run about a 7400 on the AnTuTu benchmark also.

There are a couple "plans" for the microcell. One is free and uses your existing plan's minutes. The other is the one you mentioned. And it is only 3G, but 4.5mbps is still decent just for a phone.

Yes, but they now use Ringto, another free voip provider, which works just about as well as Google Voice.
4G is flying, but I have noticed my calls automatically go to voicemail when the RAZR is on the 4G network. It doesn't even have to be in use, they just get rerouted to voicemail. A friend doesn't have that problem on 4G with his SGS3 so I'm thinking it's not the network?

Definitely your device, I have my 4G on whenever the phone is on and haven't had a single problem. Actually, I had my tethering on a couple days ago using 4G and was browsing the web on my phone at the same time and when I got a call from the lady friend, the data connection continued without a hitch. Sounds like you may need to consider a replacement, unless someone else has some info I am not aware of. Good luck.
Same here I get calls while using 4G

Yup no problems getting calls when on 4G here either....
Telstra firmware made calls go through when in 4G but then mobile network had to be manually re-engaged... I flashed the JB from SFR and now no incoming calls. Seems to be a baseband/fw issue?
Anyway did flag it with my provider maybe it's a possible bug. Who knows.

Hmm... does sound like a baseband issue. I would almost try hard reset? I have never heard of this before. I'll stay active in this thread though if nothing is resolved via your provider. Nice speedtest, by the way
