Personally, I will start with $10. If this gets popular, I will setup a Paypal for people to submit to. Right now just want to see who's interested.
Want to get wifi calling working and supported on MIUI builds regardless of old or new Sim card.
$30 pledged so far!!
If nothing else hopefully we'll find out if it's possible or not. Since MIUI is based off Cm7, I don't see why not.
Thanks,
Derek

yes and read the thread and tell me how many people comment on the fact that it doesn't work. I've had it work once for a couple hours but did a reboot on my phone and lost it, never seen it since on MIUI. Tried three different MIUI roms built by different people, and none of them had wifi calling working.
it's been stated multiple times that it seems to be phone related issue (aka hardware). for most people it works but for some it doesn't due to phone specific issues.

Are you using an older simcard or the one that came with when you got your g2x?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Wifi calling has always worked for me on Whitehawx's builds, even after many reboots. Guess I'm lucky.
WiFi calling never worked properly for me on any ROM other than OEM (T-Mobile)
It works on CM, but every time I leave the house, my phone disconnects from WiFi and connects to 3G, but I have no bars displayed. Phone/data works, but bars are not displayed. In order to see reception bars, I have to reboot my phone, or I can go to WiFi calling app, select to use "WiFi Only", wait till it disconnects from 3G, and change it back to "WiFi preferred".
As for MIUI ROM, I was never able to make it work.
Keep this thread alive, perhaps we can "occupy" T-Mobile and request them to release WiFi Calling app to the market.
I really think the wifi issue has to do with the sim card i have used almost every rom and a few kernel and i never had an issue with wifi my sim is about 6 yr old

He says it works but it does not. Phone number comes up as unknown in status, which is part of the problem.

T-mobile's Wifi Calling app does not work on the G2x using some newer SIM cards. This is ROM independent. It is a known issue. T-mobile's customer service will acknowledge the problem, offer a replacement SIM card, but they do not have real solution since the SIM replacement will be of the newer variety.
I think it has something to do with a change they made in wifi calling for their newer phones (Amaze and SGSII), which did not support wifi calling at all until these newer cards were released.
Since Wifi calling is important to me, I just placed my newer SIM card in my wife's GalaxyS 4g and placed her older SIM card in my phone. Her phone handles the newer SIM just fine. And mine works great with the older.

I wonder if this is the real issue behind difficulty people are having with MIUI? Are those of you having issues with wifi-calling in MIUI able to get wifi calling to work using a stock ROM?
Mine works on cm7 100% of time period. It is sparatic on miui on a good day with hardly ever working. With that said, it cannot be a hardware issue or even sim card issue. It is a miui problem....

My wifi calling works fine on any stock Rom and also works fine on Cm7... it has never worked on MIUI. It tells me invalid Sim, and my phone # shows up as unknown in settings.
Wifi calling is the *first* thing I check on any Rom. Thanks to the lousy reception my G2X gets, I was constantly dropping calls at home until I enabled wifi calling.
I can honestly say that wifi calling rarely ever worked for me on MIUI. If it ever did...a reboot would kill it. I got my sim card with my phone when I got it.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
I'll concur; i have flashed virtually every rom available for the G2X and all have had wifi calling except MIUI. I used to flash the latest MIUI every Saturday, but phone number was never recognized and sim is always invalid. It is the sim that came with the phone... I have no option for an older one. Since I have zero bars at home wifi calling = calling for me.

No such issues or complaints on this. Were you on wifi in the store?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
No, wifi wasn't enabled in the store. As a matter of fact, i actually tried to use the wifi when 4G begun having data issues and was unable to find any networks.
Mine has randomly disconnected from 4G as well, although the status bar still shows it connected. If I restart the phone it comes back on.
I think it may have something to do with toggling on wifi, but it has also happened after just sitting idle for an extended period, and wont come back on.

Well, I think LG should of did a lot more QC before they even though about dropping this phone on the shelves. There is also a lot of little stuff that this phone is just not doing that my optimus T did flawlessly.
I'd have to agree. I'd recommend having your sim card replaced to see if that helps.

Interesting ill tell you how i was able to get the phone. I was actually on flex pay the TM rep ported my number to a new line on our family line. Before that happened i was using a different number that wasnt attached to the sim card i am using now and 4G internet was working correctly on that sim card.But, Now that you have stated your issue. i think im going back to the tmobile store and see if they can get a new sim card for me.
So I'm not the only one with the network issue. seems like as soon as I disconnect from wifi I lose network connectivity. I still see my signal but can't access the internet at all. Totally locks up until I reboot. Which is proving to be a pain in the butt.
I'm going to t-mobile today to get a new sim card to see if that changes anything, mine is currently from Oct 28th 2008. The day the G1 was first released. Can't even read the numbers anymore. But to my knowledge the cards haven't changed. Guess I'll see if this fixes the issue.

That is the way it is designed. When you have WiFi on, it disables your Cellular data to save power. Hence why the 4G icon disappears.
When you disable WiFi, it has to reenable the Cellular Data. So it takes a sec.
Now if it NEVER comes back then there is a problem. But don't expect it to be instantaneous.

When I have wifi on, the 4g icon still comes on and off constantly. When wifi is off, 4g icon still blinks on then off constantly. Still don't have any data. New sim card didn't help either. I go through a battery in about 4 hours because its constantly connecting and disconnecting to the network.
LG sucks.
I'm pretty much convinced this is related to Wifi calling. Try disabling that (this will also help your battery life something serious - take a look at devices logs when wifi calling is enabled.)

When I upgraded my G1 to my G2x, they said they had to give me a new SIM card because the old one won't do 4G. According to the sales person I spoke with, you will need a new SIM card.
Can you keep your old number with a new sim card? My sim card is the same one from my first phone, nokia 3390

OK Guys and Gals, Here is what is going on with the radio issue. No Matter WHAT radio combos you may be using. As some of you may know by my earlier posts I live in a huge 4G network and never get anything, but 4G and (3G only for a min on boot) This is why I didn't have ANY issue's until I got curious and wanted to try something. On our tbolts, if you try to make a call while in 3G the 3G will drop out until the call is over. I went back to froyo, got pissed and went strait back to GB (doesn't matter what Rom as all the dev have clearly stated) when I did go back to GB things were tight as usual. worked like a charm. I used it as I normally would and everything was fine. upon a self induced restart, before my phone had a chance to obtain 4G (still in 3G) I decided to make a test call to see if the 3G would drop. It didn't. Quickly after I ended the call the phone booted in to bootloader. Thank God I had removed the GB RUU because I don't have a card reader to remove the RUU. I forgot to mention I do have the latest Rom Mgr and was able to get into recovery and simply reboot. After that reboot I would get to my home screen, but this time the 3G only would come up and then reboot. Time after time of rebooting I tried other things such as toggle radio to just grab 4G, then the phone rebooted again! upon the next full boot I quickly moved the original froyo radio strait to the sd card. And yet another reboot. This time I got a Rom Mgr error and noticed that Rom mgr was no longer flashed!!! I flashed it real quick because I knew another reboot was on its way. Rom mgr flashed and I told it to boot in to recovery. Thank **** I flashed Rom manager because if not I would be in continuous boots like the unfortunate others. Once in recovery I Realized that I had told my phone to go in to recovery via Rom mgr. and if I did a restore, the phone would have booted back up with my froyo rom but with the GB radio! so I told CWR to just reboot so I could tell the phone to go into recovery via the pwr restart option (thus not restarting after I flashed my froyo recovery) Once recovery of my froyo rom was complete I used ADB to reboot bootloader and SUCCESS! Bottom line you can not make a call while on 3G with any of the current GB radios, you gotta be quick, Make sure ROM mgr is actually flashed!!!! and hopefully can dump the froyo radio on to your SD card before an inevitable reboot happens! and have some ADB knowledge. I'm certain this is whats going on! People make a call while in 3G and its all down hill from there. So dont bother with telling radio settings to stick with one band. Once this happens, there is no turning back. Any questions PM me. I'm glad I tried this out before Vaca tomorrow with a FUBAR Tbolt
Hope this helps developers somehow. Good luck!

Only 3g here in new Mexico and no.issues here. Maybe its more to do with making a call while the phone is trying to.connect to the 4g.

I ran a GB rom and radio for over a week set to only 3G and I am in a STRONG 4G area. Made many calls and had no issue.
*edit: Correct me if I'm wrong but your data (3G) drops when in a call, when set to 3G only, due to the fact that you can't have simultaneous data and voice. That is what 4G (LTE) is providing. I open and close the browser a couple of times or toggle airplane mode and it comes back.

I have stock 2.2 on my G2x and want to install CM7, the only app I care about (and reason I switched to T-mobile) is wifi calling (UMA). If I adb pull /system/app/kineto.apk from the phone, install cm7, and push the apk back to the phone will it work ? Do I need to pull any libs from /system/libs/ ? I read on some thread that wifi calling after cm7 does not work, so I want to make sure before I root and mod my phone. I also downloaded the gingerbread leak version of the kineto.apk just in case the stock (2.2) one does not work... But if someone can please confirm that this process works I can root/mod this puppy PDQ.
Thanks a ton for your help.
I'm confused...is the wifi calling app even necessary? Even with the app uninstalled (or frozen), I just connect to wifi and then dial a phone number and my calls connect. So what's the purpose of this app that runs 24 hours a day?
The wifi calling (UMA) app allows you to make calls over T-mobile network by using a WIFI even if you have no signal, this is similar to the ATT femtocell calling. The app needs to be running inorder for you to make wifi only calls using T-mobile network. T-mobile supports UMA calling and no other carrier does.
CM7 comes preloaded with WiFi Calling installed. What is the issue here?
BTW, the app only turns on and activates IF turned on and WHEN wifi is enabled. If WiFi is off, so is WiFi Calling. It has been prebuilt into CM7 for over a month. It made its way into CM7 in one of the earlier builds (#13 I think).
I have the latest CM7#58 and I use WiFi Calling all the time while at work. Make sure you grab some signal before activating as it has to communicate to the cell towers to activate the app.
player911, thanks a ton I did not know that CM7 comes preloaded with wifi calling app... I will be rooting and modding my phone today! Bye Bye stock POS 2.2... Hello CM7

Second day owning this device and love it so far, but day two has been rough. I am stuck on 3g. All of a sudden today my lte switched and will not go back. Iv'e rebooted, toggled airplane mode and data. Even pulled the sim. I live in a strong 4g area so that is not the problem. My buddy has a nexus and his is fine. I also have had great reception in areas I have always had problems, so not a reception issue. I called verizon and was told it is a know issue that is normally solved with a reboot. She said an update was scheduled for early September to fix the issue. The point of this thread is to find out if anyone else has had this problem, or found a solution.

Unfortunately I am also finding myself stuck in 3g. I have pulled the battery, installed a new ROM. Still working on it, not thrilled. Prior to 4g disappearing, it showed 4g, however I was unable to connect over it. I hope this isn't a hardware issue.

Did this work?
Just FYI, I have the SCH-i535 and am noticing similar behavior. I had a Samsung Droid Charge before the SGS3, and it stayed locked to 4G LTE in the same exact areas of my home. If my Charge did happen to drop 4G, it would always come back. But not with my SCH-i535. Once 4G drops it stays on 3G until I reboot the phone. So far, this is my only complaint about this phone.
It is very random for me. Im certain its a **** sim card. Right now its fine, but at any time it may get stuck on 3g. Also while at work the first couple of days it would hold a decent 3g signal, now its primarily on 1x. Once i replace the sim card I am hopeful for it to be fine.

I thought Verizon said that this was a known issue? I'm just curious as to why you would disagree. But if a new SIM does happen to fix the problem, please let us know.
Just a heads up! I have the same issue, but I can't get 4g back at all, which I thought stemmed from flashing CM9, but this thread is making me wonder now! I spent an hour on the phone with Verizon technical support and they said you will get a popup if the sim is the issue. They told me its the phone and they are sending me a new one. FYI you can try this code. *2767*3855# in the dialer to factory reset the phone ( can do the same in recovery ofcourse), but you HAVE to be running STOCK UNROOTED! Some people have had luck with this "resetting" the radio I guess. If this doesnt work, might as well call them and get a new phone coming. TRUST ME, I believe I did everything I could think of before calling them, except taking the phone apart and pulling a new radio out of my ass!! Lol
I'd just return the phone and get a new one if possible.
They did tell me it was known issue. Its just weird how random it is. I am hopeful it is either the sim card of a software issue. I hope it is not a hardware issue. I would rather not have my phone replaced as I just put a new screen protector on. Also to those getting a replacement, is it brand new or a certified like new device?

I did read in another forum that the replacement phones are coming out with a baseband update. I'm guessing that we will probably need to exchange our phones...or be patient for the OTA. Hopefully it won't be too much longer. Incidentally, I just did a factory reset and 4G now appears to be working. Time will tell...

Just a heads up! I have the same issue, but I can't get 4g back at all, which I thought stemmed from flashing CM9, but this thread is making me wonder now!

I also flashed CM9, and I am fairly certain this was the cause of my problems. Nothing I did would make 4G work again.
Other 4G VZW devices seemed to work fine at the same time(I have an ipad3 for work, POS).
I didn't mess with it for a couple of hours while running errands, then all of the sudden it was working again. Been fine ever since as far as I can tell. It would be nice to know what exactly is causing this, but for now I'd caution against messing with cm9 .
Hey Sensation community !
Since 2 days my mobile network stopped working, I tried ALOT of "solutions" which I found here but all of them didn't help at all...I even flashed a new rom + fireware, radio, etc...
I used the search function before I started this thread but I only found little threads with like 3-5 replys and they weren't even usefull - even outdated.
So to be more detailed, my mobile network icon pops up nomally after turning it ON but only the upload arrow is filled which means if I open the browser or any app it won't work cause there's actually no connection to the internet.
I checked my APN which is fine. Most of the people say : Fix your APN and it should be fine. - Great -_-
Phone informations:
HTC Sensation
ROM: Android Revolution HD 6.7.2 by mike1986
Adroid 4.0.3
HTC Sense 3.6
I'd appreciate it if somebody could help me fixing this annyoing issue.
If you need some more details about the phone let me know

Nope, as I said, I even wiped my phone new rom, new firmware, new radio and new kernel.
I'm having the same issue, flashed cm9 last night, everything was fine and working then this afternoon at about 2 my phone says no service. I put the sum card in a different phone and it still didn't work. I'm T-Mobile UK but phone is normally connected to T-Mobile/orange network

Check your settings under Network/Connection settings and see if it's set to the correct network mode.

They all fine.
One more thing to say.
If I'm using "GSM only" the internet works but it's hekka slow -_- As soon as I switch to GSM / WCDMA auto "H" shows up only with the upload arrow on and the internet stops working.
Guess nobody knows how to fix this crap.... :/
I tried putting the sim in a different phone and it still didn't work. Might be a sim card issue or Tmobile are having trouble, for me anyway

Did you call your phone company?
I spent 4 days trying to diagnose this same kind of issue once only to find out that my data plan had been accidentally deleted from my account.
2 minute phone call and everything was working again.

As I thought my problem was with my network provider. The phone seems to have reconnected to the network and I am receiving texts and calls again. Hope you get your issue sorted.

I can be pretty sure it's not the SIM cause I tested it on a UMTS/HSDPA Surf-stick and the internet works with it. It has to be the phone itself.

If I change my network mode to GSM only the internet works but you guys know, its terribly slow. As soon as I switch to WCDMA only the upload arrow is highlighted and nothing works... Hope somebody can help me out -_-

Which kind of tethering ?>_> I wanna fix this already :///
Tell me what you're doing to make your "H" network work.
I meant WiFi thethering. My mobile network works only, if i use it for WiFi tethering. As long as i use the mobile network only on the phone, it doesn't work...
