I love TMO wifi calling because the cell signal at my house is really spotty being blocked by hills. The problem I have is that wifi calling has to be manually turned on every time. If I am out running around and forget to turn off wifi calling, the phone would try to connect to public wifi which I don't want to do. Does anyone know of an app that would automatically turn on wifi calling when connected to a specific network then automatically turn off once the connection is lost? Basically I am looking to have wifi calling only when I am home.

Hi all,
I have HTC One S from T-Mobile and noticed a big problem with my WiFi connection.
My phone will connect automatically to the wifi network in my home/work correctly, but when I leave and am clearly out of range of my wifi network (say, a km away), the phone still claims to be connected to the network, but I of course have no actual connectivity. The signal strength it reports has varied, from full strength to just a few bars.
I try giving it a minute, but it seems stuck and refuses to officially disconnect from the network. The only way to fix things is to toggle my wifi on and off, at which point it goes to mobile data since it can't find any wifi networks to connect to.
The thing is that I use Wireless Bluetooth headphones and since I started using my new phone, the signal drops (I believe it is because of the Wi-Fi not disconnecting from the network and is causing disruptions to the bluetooth connection).
Any ideas how to resolve this issue? Thanks.

did anyone tried and tested while connected to a wifi then you activated wifi hot-spot? it always says "Turn off wifi to use wifi hot-spot" any one have ideas on these on how to work both while connected to a wifi then activated wifi hot-spot because hot-spot only works with mobile data network.
Its not possible
A mobile can either recieve wifi or wifi hotspot

Wifi hot spot means to broadcasting capability, i.e in case of a router it has hotspot which broadcast the network. router only connects devices to it's network or gateway. router dont use this wifi to get connected to another network. because it is impossible to do broadcasting and also to receive another broadcast from another device using only one gateway.
So if you are connected to a network using wifi then how you will be able to broadcast or create a wifi hotspot??
May be I made you understood..
Hello, If my phone is showing both a signal to Wifi as well as 3G/H+ etc, what connection is it using? Im assuming its to do with the smart switch between Wifi/ Cellular on which is stronger, so in theory it uses Cellular data? Anyone with any ideas?
Cheers
If your WiFi is working fast your phone always goes for the WiFi, and the mobile data is not used.. You won't get an h+ when you get connected to the WiFi as it will be on standby while the phone users WiFi as primary network!
Hope it helps!
I just got this watch today and I'm unable to see certain wifi networks, particularly my campus wifi. I am able to connect to my cell phone's hotspot but that uses up my data plan very quickly. I downloaded this wifi manager app that lets me see my campus wifi but still doesn't connect to it.
Is there anything else that I can do to connect to my campus wifi?
Alternatively, can I get internet through bluetooth if my cell phone is connected to wifi? Is there a setting for this?
Thanks
Seems this watch is not supporting 5G network. You may check if your campus has 5G and 2.4G supported.
When my mobile phone is connected to WiFi is it still accessing 4G, 3G or 2G?
I'm asking as ive been having an issue where my phone signal is really bad when I'm connected to Wifi at home or work and my network (Vodafone) has advised me to switch to 2G when this happens. But if I'm connected to WiFi will this have any bearing? As from my understanding the phone is actually downloading data from the WiFi not a cellular network?
Thanks.
