Wifi calling static - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5

Anyone have issues with WiFi calling?
When I make a call or answer a call when on wifi calling, the other person just hears static.
I can hear the person ok but all they hear is static. I've got other phones on my wifi network (Note 4 and Note 3) that work with WiFi calling. Both phones work without static.
The weird thing is I took the phone to a Sprint store and it worked fine over there on the Sprint store wifi network.
Anyone have any ideas?

Must be something to do with your router. ...

That could be true but why do the Note 4 and Note 3 work but the Note 5 doesn't. Unless the router has a issue with the Note 5 specifically?

Is your Google voice flaky?

Ever since I've been on the n5 receiving calls to my Google voice number has been hit or miss. Making calls is not a problem. Most of the time it keeps ringing on my hangouts on my PC.
It works perfectly on my n4. Rings both on hangouts and on my n4 but when I swap the SIM to the n5 it becomes flaky.
I've updated imei in the database and even removed and added the number back in Google voice.

I've had the same issue with my Google Voice. I had it with Sprint integration but could not receive any phone calls. I could call out fine. Did you end up resolving this issue because i would love to fix my issue as well. I even had Sprint reactivate my phone but nothing works.

I think i've narrowed it down to cell signal. When I switch it to 3g in mobile networks i get a strong signal and calls come in immediately. When I switch back to LTE, i get a very weak signal and calls received are very inconsistent. I'll test again when I'm in a strong LTE signal area but so far that appears to be the culprit for me.

I think you are on to something. When I got home where I have an airave I was able to make and receive calls with Google Voice enabled. I will also be switching the two correct SIM for for the nexus 5 when it arrives so I hope that will help. I will update if I get better results then.

Galaxy Note Edge Internet problem?

Has anyone noticed the loss of Internet connection when you are on a phone call? I just got my Note Edge on Verizon and I can not be on the phone and use the Internet or anything else that needs a data connection. And the notification panel shows I no longer have a 4G-LTE connection but instead it shows 1X when on a phone call.

The note edge doesn't come shipped with that function.
Well that kinda stinks. I have got used to that function from my previous phones, the Note 2 and Note 3. Not to mention I always made fun of a buddy of mine that uses iPhone and he has never had that function until he got his new iPhone 6 (maybe the iPhone 5s). Oh well, guess I will have to make do.
That's the way it's supposed to work for now. You just have to hope and pray that VOLTE eventually comes to your area.
don't feel bad. us sprint users have the same problem. i think the gsm phones do it but cdma doesn't
Whats funny is my Sprint Note 3 was able to do VOLTE. But not the Note Edge.
Only thing like that now is if your connected to Wi-Fi you can use surf the web and talk at the same time.

I'm having the same issue on verizon. This actually sucks cause I used my Internet and talked a lot on my note 3. Is this something that can be fixed with an update or no?

Does anyone know if the note 4 does the same thing?

yes the sprint note 3 was a different lte. it wasn't a spark device. all phones that use spark are like that. no voice and data at the same time. funny how the "better" things that we move to don't always seem better
I found out if you go to settings then advanced calling and subscribe to advanced calling you can talk and surf the Web at the same time without WiFi.

Yeah noticed that too. Coming from a HTC One M8 I was really disappointed in that not working ;(
I've also noticed what seems to be antenna issues, wifi drops A LOT! and blue tooth cuts in and out in my truck.
Not sure if it's software or if I need to swap out for a new device due to faulty hardware.

I believe that's a carrier specific option.

Go to advance calling in setting. Click the button to on. Then go to your app drawer. Make sure My Verizon signed in. Power off your device. Turn your device back on. Make a 1-800-call to try it out. Problems fixed
I don't understand why Verizon does this. But they do. And to give you heads up. If your on the phone and surfing the net. Your going to eat more data. Your voice calling. Becomes data calling.. And this will only work on 4g.

Help! Our "unlocked" Sprint Galaxy 7's won't do wifi calling with our new provider!

Help! Our "unlocked" Sprint Galaxy 7's won't do wifi calling with our new provider!
We have 2 Sprint Galaxy S7's, GSM-930P. Never set up wifi calling on sprint but had an icon for it and they were always asking me to set it up. Switched to Mint mobile which works on Tmobile's network. When on wifi at home or work can't send or receive MMS, pictures, but turn wifi off and the pictures go or download. Never had this problem before. Have wifi turned on through our provider and there is a greyed out wifi callng icon at the top of screens next to signal strength and wifi icon.
They say I have to turn it on in our phones for it to work properly but that setting isn't in any of our menus. I've found other threads talking about it being gone on sprint phones but the phone is capable of wifi calling from what I've found. I found one post somewhere about someone "flashing" their phone with the tmobile software or something and it working. On Mint mobile's site they have a list of compatible phones and our IMEI isn't listed as being compatible? It's so confusing and frustrating. I know these phones are capable of wifi calling and think that it would make our phones work better if we changed some things up. I'm trying to figure all of this out but not sure how to do it or who to listen to online. I would appreciate any help you could offer. Thank you!

WiFi calling on Verizon?

Anyone know IF WiFi calling can be enabled on the Verizon network? I know it's enabled through my carrier (coming from Pixel 3 XL)
I am very interested in this as well. Have zero cell coverage at my job, but amazing wifi coverage.
That and a way to do wifi texting, but I think I may have to dig around for that one.

i think WiFi texting is tied to WiFi calling they really handicapped the device on Verizon's network. All it can do is essentially make and receive calls...
I know the T-Mobile version can on T-Mobile, but it's there anything that keeps the unlocked version from doing it on T-Mobile? I may switch if that's the case.
I love this phone so much I may have to switch to T-Mobile.

I did figure out a way to 'make' the option appear using a newer verizon of the Oneplus Logkit apk...(dial *#800#, pick Oneplus Logkit>Function Switch> VoWifi Switch). But after enabling it, it doesn't seem to work yet, and it somehow seems to break MMS if it's on. Not sure if they are actually working on it or not, but I wish someone could see if they could get it working. I think I got the APK from here, but I can't remember from where, so whoever you are, I'm sorry for not crediting you. If someone wants to mess around with it...by all means.

Install the Verizon Messages (Message+) and you should be able to do wifi texting. I tried the log kit as well and it doesn't seem like VOWifi is working but it is hard to tell. I can make Wifi calls using Google Voice and that number but only if not in Airplane mode. Seems to be a bug as it says to turn off airplane. Voice then proceeds to make a wifi call. Maybe the same effect with regular VOWifi where it would use wifi if there is no cell signal.

I actually switched to t-mobile, and voice over wifi, wifi texting and all that showed up and work great. Message+ does not allow wifi texting on Verizon on this phone, tier 2 support said development phones (that's what the OP7 is certified under) are not eligible to use advanced features on the network, including, voice over wifi, video calling and text over wifi using Verizon messages.
I got text over WiFi to work with Verizon messages + and use Google Hangouts over WiFi for the calls. Decent enough work around.

It does not. Used my OnePlus 7 Pro for a couple of days and no WiFi calling.

A71 unlocked dropping calls

Hey guys. When in on the phone I constantly can't hear the people I'm calling or they can't hear me. It seems like a dropped call sometimes but they usually comeback. Sometimes it completely drops all the sound but I'm still connected. Any solution for this? I use it on mint mobile or T-Mobiles networks.

Unless you do not need Volte, check if you have Mint APN selected.
U1 has volte enabled by default.
