[Devs] Lets get Wifi Calling working on these custom ROMs,

I require this since i have low signal at my house and rely on the Wifi Calling app, and i'm sure i'm not alone. I'm devoting this thread to this. JBoogie, i've been told you're the man with the skills here, so if i can help in any way let me know.

Agreed! I've asked more and more, but I haven't gotten an answer - I've no signal in my dorm, where I live! And i need wifi calling

lol, i searched and the only posts that came back was the one by you asking if it worked! If i knew anything about making this work i would!

Guys none of them have it. But there was an apk put up.somewhere. you should ask jboogie3 to help you with making a zip file so that you can flash it on any rom.

Side question.. does anybody know of which SBFs contain wifi calling?

Wifi calling? Wifi can access moible network? Or do you mean VOIP?
Maybe should turn to your carrier. And ask them whether they can supply sets like femtocell.

in defy cm7 2.3.5...voip calls works..inbound/outbound..you just need to have a active SIP line to apply in the internet calling accts.
as long as you have a data/wifi active & connected your defy-its magic.
tried it myself & used a SIP acct..works great on overseas intl calls too..

I assume that everyone is talking about the Kineto UMA app that is being introduced on some of the ?Orange branded roms ?
There is a good thread here on XDA which has the Kineto android app, but it looks like it depends on other dependancies which need to be built into a custom rom.
Will be watching this thread with interest though.

In the US, T-Mobile provides WiFi Calling free for its customers. Another benefit is people can call your mobile phone number

If someone using a Froyo rom, using tmobile US service, and does not currently have Wifi calling - send me a pm.
I think I have this working, but as I'm not in the US, or using tmobile, I cannot test this.
So ya get in touch and well see what we can do.

Haha well good luck P

Skype (and other wifi calling apps) are available on the market; so why ask to 'bloat' roms with this??
Just use MarketEnabler and try a US provider if Skype is not available for you to download.

Skype is not free to call phones (only Skype-to-Skype) and people cannot call your mobile phone number!

I don't think some of you guys are catching this. Lookup T-Mobile uma. It allows you to make calls using wifi when you are out of the coverage area. It is not a separate sip acct, it uses your cell minutes.

G2x is it possible to restore Wifi calling app (kineto) from stock rom after CM7 ?

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

you can call t-mobile and ask for free wifi calling then you won't be using your minutes

This is correct.
However, the little notification will ALWAYS say "Wi-fi calling uses plan minutes", at least for me. I verified with Tmo that I had free wi-fi calling on my account, and the rep said "it's a known issue, the notification is wrong, don't worry about it".

Wifi Calling and ICS

I'm really fond of my T-Mobile WIFI calling app. With ASOP ICS, will there be a Wifi Calling App or is that a HTC or T-Mobile only application that comes with the T-Mobile US Sensation?

Wifi callng is both a Tmobile application and requires the appropriate tmobile service plan to function.
It also requires special kernel .so's to function properly. HTC does support this in their kernel, no idea if AOSP will by default.

Sprint Nexus S 4g on Boost Mobile - Questions

I flashed my NS4G to Boost... it was a long and agonizing road, but I think i finally got it working correctly.
my phone is currently 100% stock with gingerbread 2.3.7
since this was such a stressful flash, i'm kind of worried about "not fixing what's not broken"...
however, i'd love to re-root it and flash a custom ROM. Will doing this mess up any of the modifications i had to do to get calls, text, and data to work?
(they were all done in QPST)
I'm not going to do it until i have confirmation... so let me know and ease my mind!
thanks
-Randy

i also have a nexus 4g on boost. i've just about had every kernal and rom on this board for it (both gingerbread and ICS)
i hope that helps.

so a standard rom flash will retain all boost settings?

yes.
keep in mind mms fix only works on gingerbread as far as i know.
the APN can't be changed on ICS roms.

If you use voice dialer and say "open APNs", it will let you edit the apn. Does this not work to get mms working?

what you are talking about can not be talked about as it is illegal to change the esn and meid all all other device identifiers that are registered to the fcc. Each phone has a unique id to it that is represented to the fcc. I have also been talking with Boost employess and area managers and boost is getting ready to kick off the users who have "flashed" phones on Boost that do not belong on boost. This is going to be done as Boost can still tell what type of phone you have other then the esn / meid as the device still sends out certain other device ids to the network when you use certain programs. Also by trying to send updates to your phone sprint can request the system information from your phone that can tell them the actual make and model and firmware and all that you are running. And you thought carrier iq was bad...
if you wait a few months or so the evo 3d will be on sprints virgin mobile with ics included and sense 3.6...
Boost mobile will be getting the HTC Evo design 4g soon as well...
i myself dont understand why boost is going 4g when sprint is going lte... but another stupid move by sprint.

does anyone have a link to a how to flash my nexus s 4g to boost? I'd really like to do this. cant afford sprint anymore...

Mobile network doesn't work anymore...

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
~Tim

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

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.
