Nope. You're not missing anything. Sprint, in their infinite wisdom, have made their phones unable to be connected to data at the same time as a phone call is taking place.... Something that we were able to do with their phones 2 years ago but cannot do any longer. It's stupid. But there you have it.
One year ago I was able to, I came from the note 3... really tempted to go back.
Edit: all spark phones are single radio. It's a joke. What's the point of even bringing the call up on the edge panel to not interrupt my app, if I can't play clash while on the phone?!

Hello Guys,
I have an International variant of Galaxy S6 [G920I] and i have been wondering if there are still ways to enable the WiFi calling and is there a way to make Samsung Pay work on my device ?
I Understand that i have to search, but i probably tried everything and even tweeted out Samsung Support if there is a way to do it. From what i know WiFi calling used to work changing few values in previous builds and Samsung Pay just wait forever to get it working. So what do you think ? Is there a way complex or simple to make any of them working ?
Just wanted the opinion of people who have the Galaxy S7. Simply put, should I get this phone or would you have a different phone if you had the choice, having had the S7 for a while? Sorry, a really noob question but would really appreciate some help . :good:
I got an S7 when i did retire my S4 mini ( Well not fully retired, i will use it as a GPS in car )
I`m happy with it. No more custom roms ( no need at all ) . Speed is awesome, battery is great, build quality is way over S4 mini, screen is larger ( got tired of that small one ), camera is way better ( tho i don`t use it so much )
If u have the money for it, then hell yeah.
I love my S7. Best phone I ever had.

Its possibly the best phone out right now.
My current android phone top 3:
1. Galaxy s7 and s7 edge
2. HTC 10
3. LG G5
Of course all flagship phones.
Honestly, I'm debating trading mine in for a 64 GB S6. I'm tired of fighting all the bugs.
First S7 wouldn't read an SD card, returned it for a new one after a week.
Second S7 won't keep an LTE connection for more than 3 days. Drops to emergency calls only mode. Telus has reset the network connection twice. On my second SIM card, no change. If I force it to 4G-only mode, then it works better, but too slow.
And now it's having issues with dropping wireless connection. Shows a link but 0bps transfers.
If the 3rd S7 has any issues I'm upgrading to an S6. 3 strikes and you're out!
The wife's S6 has been running perfectly on the same carrier.

Buy the S7 or S7 Edge. It is SOOOOO much better than your S4 Mini. Battery, performance, camera, Screen, Build Quality, Water Resistance,....
Best phone EVER.

OK I'm sure you've all watched someone with first world problems before struggle while deciding on which fancy phone to get. With that said here is my first world problem.
I had the G4 verizon. And I had the Galaxy S5 verizon. Now I'm looking at the S6 or possibly Note 4 maybe even note 5.
The questions I have are as follows.
1. does the S6 have dual antenna for being able to make calls and use data at the same time without wifi? The s5 I know does this but think I heard that starting with the s6 they only have 1 antenna. My G4 only had 1 antenna and I hated it.
2. Same question as above but with the note 4 and note 5 (I know i know wrong section to ask about notes on the s6 forum but maybe someone has experience here)
3. Which if any of the above Verizon phones is rootable. s6,s5,note 4 note 5. I think the verizon S5 was not rootable last time I had mine.
4. I'm pretty familiar with all the other phones but does the S6 have any known issues? Like the G4 and it's dreaded bootloop. Think I read somewhere that the S6 were prone to catching fire? Read that a while back so it may have been an isolated indecent.
5. Throw any random information you know about these phones or other phones that are verizon / straight talk verizon tower accessible through micro sim/nano sim. Really any info you have. :highfive:
1. Single antenna but using data whilst on a call is possible once you activate advanced calling. This can be done on the phone itself and doesn't cost anything additional to do.
2. I would imagine my response in 1. will apply to these phones that have a single antenna and advanced calling capabilities.
3. On the S6 nothing is rootable beyond the OE2 firmware (which is a rare find). This is my opinion coming from a current S6 owner that was rooted, the development is almost non-existent since nobody is working on trying root the newer builds. I decided to uproot not only because of the development but because my phone performance was ridiculous. I'm sure the other Galaxy line phones will be just as tough although I hear root was achieved on the later S7 Edge. If root is a must I would look elsewhere. But the stock firmware for what it's worth is not bad at all. Just miss having an ad-blocker..
4. Other than the pre lollipop memory leaks eversince going stock phone feels like it should've been this way from the beginning. However your opinion may vary based if root is something you need.

OK thanks, Looks like I'll be sticking with the S5 or Note 4. Because I use either prepaid verizon or straight talk and Verizon blocks prepaid customers from using advanced wifi calling. Bummer.
Hello everyone!
I've a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge and it is not available to make calls. I can't hear the others and they does not hear me too, but the seconds on the call keep going!
Will Installing the SM firmware again, fix this issue?
