Is anyone else having issues with their Wifi-Calling on T-mobile?
I find that the wifi-calling app gets stuck at the stage there the app reads: "Enabling..."
* This is on either stock unrooted GB ROM or Xboarder's tweaked GB.
* Happening on two different routers in two different homes, different ISPs. Both
were working previously.
* I noticed this recently upon returned home from a long trip. During the trip, I had good cell coverage and didn't need the wifi-calling function anyway.
* T-mobile CSR reports an outage:
_Irina M: Ok, we are experiencing an issue with the G2X not able to establish a WIFI connection.
_Irina M: I will post the outage for you.
_Irina M: EFFECTIVE DATE: 11/7/11 OUTAGE TYPE: UMA...................................
MARKET AFFECTED: All
...................................
CUSTOMER IMPACT: G2X Cannot Activate Wifi Calling
T-Mobile subscribers may be reporting issues with the G2X encountering errors when attempting to activate Wifi calling. The device may show "enabling" but never connects.
Please Note: This issue is pending a software update but until this is released customers can upgrade to an UICC SIM card to resolve this issue.
MARKET/SERVICE IMPACTS TO: Global / Wifi Calling
CAUSE: n/a
* Despite this answer from t-mobile, I think it might be related to my recent change of a SIM card. I was having another unrelated issue and CS suggested I get a new SIM. The new SIM did not solve my issue. But now I have a new one. I did get a new SIM today, but this did not solve my problem. For the life of me, I cannot find my old SIM to reactivate.
Any one having the same issue? Can anyone test their phones to see what is what? Thanks.
11/18/11... I tested using a sim card from an Sgs4g with working 4g and wifi-calling. With this SIM in my g2x, wifi-calling was working again. It appears to me that my newer SIM cards x 2 break wifi calling.
If only I had my old card. Ironic that there was nothing wrong with that card in the first place.
I don't use wifi calling but my wifi does cut out and stop working randomly. Right now I'm only showing one bar even though I'm Lees than 10 ft from my router. This phone seems to have random wifi issues and I remember reading something online conforming it, but I don't remember where.

I have that problem (stuck at "enabling") a couple of times a month. I generally take that as an indication that it's time for a reboot, and so far a reboot has always fixed the problem for me.
No I'm experiencing it too. It was working last night I know (at home) and it was working this morning.
My GF just called me at work, which was odd... and this makes sense. My WiFi Calling is stuck at "Enabling" also.
Tmobile has gotten rid of WiFi Calling on the newer phones because they are moving to a "new" standard. The new standard requires a new SIM card. WiFi Tethering is also not working out of the box.
Something is strange.
I even went into Apps and did a Force Stop and cleared cache and tried to launch it again... it just closes and never enables.
*UPDATE*
Now its working.
I never have connection problems, but the sound quality is terrible. The person on the other end sounds real robotic and choppy. It was like this even on my blackberry.
Now its saying invalid SIM. Sweet.

See my update above. I think T-Mobile has changed the sim cards but not yet updated the software. If anyone is using wifi calling, then hold on to your cards until they fix this.

I have never used it but decided to test it because of this thread. Works great on weapon 3.0.
I bought an old sim card off eBay but haven't activated. May try it out. I'm on CM7 and it hasn't worked in days.

I am using an old similar card, wifi calling working fine, but I can't use Bluetooth.

Bluetooth and Wi-Fi calling should not be affected by your SIM card in any way on the G2x.
You need a gsa sim. These sim cards are made in the usa. Yea America!!!! **** yeah.
No but on some real talk the sim cards made in America are good quality.
India, China, and Mexico made ones do not support wifi calling. Plus they go out every month

I swapped my wife's sim card (about one year old) with my newer one. I asked customer care to reprogram our phone numbers. Either card supports wifi calling in the Galaxy S 4g. The old card supports wifi calling in my g2x.
When I get to an area of known good coverage, I will run a speedtest to see if I lose any speed using the older card.

Where and how to find old simcard?
I called Tmobile service yesterday. 3 different rep told me that I need newer sim which support 4G and wifi calling and offered to upgrade the new sim card for 20 bucks. I got mad and asked to talk with mananger. Finally a tech rep honestly told me that there is issue with wifi calling for G2X and their engineers are working on the fix, but no date of completion yet.
She sent me to a tmobile store to get a new sim card, and said it might solve the problem, but not sure 100%.
I went to the store, change new sim card at no charge. but the wifi calling still not working.
now, I saw people put the comment in this forum that we need old sim card. How do I indenfify the old sim card? what number? or serial number ect???
Can I get it from ebay?
Thanks

The newer SIM will say TM9073. You gotta take it out and look at it.

OK.. I resolved the problem. I had TM9073 and it did not work with MUI ROM.. so I changed to newer sim card TM9102, and it still not work for wifi calling. I then read about the issue with MUI ROM. the wifi calling only work with CM7 ROM. So I reflash G2x with CM7, and still use TM9102 sim..
It takes 5 minutes to enable the wifi calling feature.. but it works now... so first thing first.. you need to make sure you have the correct ROM... and then sim.
Wifi calling on MIUI has only worked for me 3 times. That was on the first boot. I had the newer sim card. Just recently bought a older sim card and now wifi calling works for MIUI every time!!

It is the TM9073 Sim that is working properly on all other roms. The TM9102 is the Sim having problems with WiFi.
So, I got a SGS2 Skyrocket a few days ago from a guy on craigslist for $400. Great deal, or so I thought. The phone worked well until today, I'm not receiving text messages or phone calls and I cannot send text messages. I first though, "great, I bought a stolen phone and and now it's been disabled." I googled it and it seems that I wouldn't be able to make calls if it had indeed been reported stolen. Any ideas? I restored the device and it didn't help. Thought it was interesting when I went to software update under settings it says "DM initialization is not ready. Check network or sim card." Could I just have a signal problem or something? I have full bars...
Did you get a new 4G LTE sim card for the phone?
No, I didn't. But it was sending texts just fine yesterday and now I'm trying to use the sim on my old phone and it wont send texts either.
Sounds like a sim issue. You might need to head to your ATT store and upgrade your sim card. This should solve your problems. Older sims won't work on the newer 4G phones. I had this issues with my 1st skyrocket and my old sim. It worked for a bit then stopped working, we replaced the old sim with a new one and all was good....

I bought mine off Craig's List and experienced the same thing. Your sim from your Captivate will only work briefly for phone/SMS, but not at all for data.
You MUST get a 4G LTE sim card for the Skyrocket and AT&T will change your data plan "type" (same data and price per month, but different line item on the billing).
5 minutes in AT&T and I was good to go.

Dont listen to people like this when they tell u older sims will work for a min then stop. Complete and utter bull****. Me and my friend have the skyrocket and he uses and older version sim and has no problems. The new sim only matters cuz it gives u the lte data plan. Its not gonna stop text from going thru.

Really? So if your information is correct, and you are all knowing, then why not help him fix the problem.
First off sounds like a SIM issue. Sim is usually the problem when it comes to network connectivity issues. Did you check the litmus sticker for water exposure?
Call ATT and have them check the IMEI #. You should have done that before you bought the phone.
@Justinfedor: That kind of response is not needed. If you can't say what's on your mind kindly please go somewhere else.
When I got my Skyrocket (moving from Captivate) the sales person said directly I would get a new SIM because the 4G LTE needed a new (assumably different) one. I'm sure you just need to get a new SIM which ATT should do no problem.

4g lte sims are for data. Like i said my friend doesnt have one in his phone. We dont live in an lte area so hes not getting a new one. U all say people need a new sim for a 4g device. Thats a complete lie. Sims can cause the issue but its not always the answer. Oh and i will go somewhere else cuz you all obvisously think you know everything. No need to be in here with a bunch of low life.

Can't you just get a new Sim? Worst case, is that your carrier might charge you something like $10.00......

If that's the way you're going to act, then please leave. I used to work for ATT a while back. What I don't think you get is... You're right and you're wrong. No you don't need a LTE sim. If the sim is bad it can cause connectivity issues, and weird stuff all together. That last statement is what you're completely ignoring.
Justin and X10D3 are correct. I used my sim from my Atrix in my phone since I got it. You'll need to be set up on the LTE plan through att. All that happened is their system doesn't have your account provisioned for LTE and it took a day or so for them to catch it. Login to your account and see if you're on an LTE plan. If not, then call them, but I know my sim is the same one from my Atrix and I've hit LTE areas the whole month in December with no issues. It shouldn't change your rate plan just need it provisioned for your account to register properly with their LTE network.

Correct me if I'm wrong.
what you say. I think the SIM is burned. try a new and tell us how it goes
Sometimes the server of my operator falls and I can not make calls or messages.for about 5 minutes. or up to 6 hours
I would try a total reset first GTG's Ultimate Unbrick http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116251

Hi Pajezaum
I'm from Brazil São Paulo as well and bought my Infuse August last year.
Mine I bought it unlocked, to prevent this kind of problem, .
Anyway, I'm using Claro and it's working perfect, stock factory ROM.
I suggest you test another sim card, even try from another mobile provider.
Infuse is Quad-band, so maybe it's not a frequency problem.
Any problem, contact me.

Rally1969, when i installed ZEUS rom and saw the problem stayed, i use GTG's Ultimate Unbrick and still not working after stock rom installed
any possibility of the IMEI is blocked?
markbyck, i sent a message for you.
if you are blocked by imei then you should be able to get incomming calls, but when every you try making an outgoing call you signal will jump to no service, ( i bought a stolen phone before ) F**KING craiglist
guys, i installed DarkyRom and show 'Sim card PUK-Locked' any idea?
puk blocked means you need a new sim card

Hi,
It seems weird.
Did you drop it or changed anything?
If you have accidently changed few things while playing with any system's tweak app,
Try doing a factory reset. And if you are using BMM, try installing other ROMs available...

If other sim cards work then it would seem that you may have a bad, or possibly damaged, sim. Try to get your carrier to replace it for you.

If the only problem is with the airtel network sim card(s) then it must be a network issue. I would say at this point you should contact Airtel and be sure that your phone is compatible with their network. They might even be able to offer you a solution like maybe a different sim card, and/or a different service plan that your phone will be able to function on. Either way, it sounds like a network issue rather than a phone issue and should be resolved by Airtel. Sorry I can't be more helpful than that. Maybe someone here that is on the same network knows of a workaround.

I just had to say this... Not being a jerk, but more of a smart arse...
Maybe if you were using airtel instead of suing them it would work.
All kidding aside.
The a2 is known to have issues with some telco's sims, just politely tell them you require a new 64k sim card, and see if that helps. It seems many have had issues with the airtel India sim cards even if they once worked in the phone, and just stopped.
Thanx buddy
I already tried many other sims of airtel of my friends but the problem is same. Sometimes phone got the signal for 3 to 4 hrs with airtel sim. After that signals accidently lost.

Do you have the 64k sim card as jimbridgman suggested? If not then try that.
If you do have a 64k sim and it still isn't working then the only thing left that I can think of is hardware failure.

Running xiaomi.eu 13.0.8 stable. All my outgoing calls end at 29m50s.
I have tried calling different numbers so not a problem with the called number. I have put my Vodafone UK SIM in my S22 Ultra and that's fine, but any call I'm on just terminates at 29m50s.
Has anyone else got this problem? Hopefully we'll see an update soon which may fix it.
this could just be your carrier having a call duration restriction, have you tried your sim card in another device to rule out carrier issue?

Yes. It's just the Xiaomi 12S Ultra. With my Vodafone SIM and EE SIM, they both disconnect calls, and in an iPhone, S22, Pixel, etc. they don't
Upgraded to 13.0.9 and still got the issue
Can anyone else try a call and see if they have the same problem?
Has anyone managed to make a call longer than 29m50s?
Just performed a factory reset and same issue.

yea 13.0.10 eu.
no idea. the only thing i noticed is a drop of quality due the spot where i am, constantly changes between 3g, 4g, 5g depending on where i am. but making it 4g only fixes.
So I formatted/wiped and went back to 13.0.8
Managed a 31 minute call
Installed 13.0.10, didn't sign in to anything, update any apps, etc.
Call disconnected at 29m50.
Time to give up with this phone I guess.
Hi,
I'm experiencing the same issue and it's been behaving this way since day 1. I've tried two different SIM cards. I've even gone as far as factory wiping the phone and even disabling VOLTE and using 3G for calls but it hasn't helped. I'm running on the stock CN ROM.
I want to return the phone, but I doubt I'll get it refunded in full since I've been using it for so long and I'm unsure what Giztop would do and how I'd be able to prove to them it's faulty. v13.0.11 was just released recently and it's not helped either.
I've decided I'm going to wait for the Vivo X90 Pro+ or Samsung S23U and be done with this phone since this issue is a dealbreaker as I tend to make a lot of calls since I also use this as both my personal and work phone. I'm kind of disappointed and am going to miss the camera a lot.
