I'm a new to 3G. Recently I got an Huawei G510 which runs on Android 4.1. It supports 3G and has a front facing cam. But I can't find an option to make a Video call. I know some of you might suggest about third-party apps(Skype, Fring etc) but please don't. Now there is an option for internet call which takes an account setup(ID, Password, Server) I've no idea what it is.
My question are:
1. Can I make 3G video call (Non third-party) from this phone?
2. What is this "Internet call" and how do I get this Id, and server?
Thanks in advance.
I found it. It's not the phone but the network provider.

Hello,my girlfriend has just purchased a used polaris with a cooked rom,the problem is that the dialler hasn't the selection for video calls,Also when she has an incoming video call the backlight is open but no answering choice is appeared,thus cannot make or receive video calls.Have you any solution?
thanks.
Does your network provider support 3G, that's my only guess. As you need a 3G network to be able to Video Call, if not, maybe try flashing a new cooked rom onto the phone.
Also make sure your dialler supports video calls, just do a search for 3g dialler or video dialler.

Hello all Xdains,
I'm using Xperia Live with walkman. I want to make video call over the 3g network provided by operator( Not Skype, tango, fring etc, they run via data plan ). Dont via any data plan, just directly. But there is no option for video call on this phone. I have heard that only two Android based phone only support 3g video call directly.
So, is there any way to make video call over 3g, any custom or any other software ........ for Xperia Live With Walkman.
there aren't

hi,
I have Huawei G700-U10 it is supported on 3G network, but there is no option in dialer to dial video calls. and if someone dials me a video call they get an error saying the calling device is not video supported.
I am asking about Native Video Calling Feature.
Skype & Google Hangout works perfectly.

After RnD came to know that Native video calling is not enabled in Huawei & Xperia & Moto G.
Hey everyone,
I just picked up a new Z3 Unlocked with Dual sim mode and was having a very weird issue. I can make calls when the wifi is on, however, I do not receive incoming calls. It will ring twice and go to VM. Has anyone experienced this or know of way to fix it??
I've set the APN setting and everything works fine. I get LTE with AT&T and I have no issues except the issue with incoming calls on wifi.
Thanks guys.

I don't think you actually have wifi calling, as far as I know only tmo has a Z3 capable of wifi calling and its enabled by them and not Sony. I'm not sure if AT&T has even rolled out wifi calling on any phones yet, they've only stated their iPhones would get it sometime in 2015. Not sure how to solve your issue, but it can't be wifi calling.

Thanks hanano17
Im not sure what it is exactly. It seems as if it wont switch between wifi and the network to receive calls. I cant turn on my wifi at home because ill miss calls.
Anyone have any other suggestions?

The more detail you can provide about what you are attempting to do, what works and what does not, and the settings/state of your phone, the better.
Dumb question first: Are you sure you are on AT&T, not T-Mobile?
Also, is your Z3 T-Mobile branded by any chance? (You might then want to flash debranded Sony firmware... see the Android Development forum).
Do you have cellular coverage in your area? If you turn WiFi off (and be sure Airplane mode is off also!), are you able to send/receive any calls at all? Can you call voicemail? (Note that calling and receiving call is not dependent on data settings, such as APN).
Do you have another SIM nearby that you can try? (e.g. your SO's...)
Are you sure you have not configured your phone for SIP (VoIP)? Go to Settings -> Call Settings -> Internet Call Settings -> Use Internet calling -- make sure that it says Only to SIP address. (Internet calling is great -- I forward calls to my VOIPo number when unavailable/unanswered, where I can also "spoof" my outgoing number to match my cell phone number, receive my voice mails as email attachments, make calls from my computer, etc... but that's probably a couple of steps ahead).

VOIPo.
I also use PhonePower for my "landline". We have a couple of SIP phones at home, and when going on vacations etc. we simply pick up our "home" calls on our cell phones (using the built-in SIP clients in Android and (gasp) Symbian).
PhonePower is better for international calls (VOIPo has a couple of restrictions, and also does not correctly interpret the "+" prefix in telephone numbers, the way I store them in my phonebook), whereas VOIPo is better as a "transparent" replacement for your cell phone number (if your cell phone is out of coverage, or in airplane mode), in that it can "spoof" the outgoing caller ID to match your cell phone number. (You'll have to verify it first of course).
