T-Mobile VoLTE - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

Did anyone ever figure out T-Mobile VoLTE on the Exynos S7?

I'd like to push this, as I'm missing the option in telephone app as well. I flashed latest stock firmware from sammobile for germany, t-mobile. This is my carrier and it definetly supports VoLTE. But I don't get the option shown in the app. Anything I could do about this?

Have you ever looked at mobile networks ?

Oh it is german csc? Did you set the CSC properly for germany? You will see the CSC setting thing in the development forum.

You need a Device that was branded by Telekom.
And you have to activate VoLTE via your Serviceportal :fingers-crossed:

Just go to kundencenter.telekom.de and choose Mobilfunk. Then go to Tarifoptionen/Telefonie and you can activate VoLTE and WiFi-Calling for free.

This won't work in USA

Sprint Note 5 on MetroPCS

I have a rooted Sprint Note 5 with the "Speed Racer" rom installed with TWRP. Before I left Sprint I requested to have my phone unlocked and it went through w/o a problem. However, yesterday when I went to MetroPCS and threw their SIM in my card I thought everything was going ok.
I realize now that although I have full data and text messaging I can't receive or make phone calls. I tried different APN settings and changed from LTE/CDMA to AUTOMATIC but none of that has worked. I even tried calling MetroPCS but they weren't able to get it up and running either. I need the know how of the XDA community to help me out please. Will give a small donation to someone if they can get me through this!

Is that a GSM sim? Install https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.mangelow.network&hl=en netwrok apk, and see if you can choose GSM/WCDMA mode on it. If not you have to flash a custom rom to get all GSM functions and get rid off sprint stuff.
If CDMA sim, i can't help further.

Thanks for the reply man. I did download that app and there were a lot of options but GSM/WCDMA wasn't one of them. I'll take your advice and try another rom

Hey, is there maybe another option on that app that may work? I tried downloading this DarthVader ROM on the T-Mobile forum that was supposed to be somewhat universal and during the Aroma installation you had to choose between Tmboile or International version. After choosing the TMobile version it loaded up but it didn't give me any network options at all.
Can you maybe advise a good rom that may work?

You cannot flash a Tmobile or International rom just like that... unless built for N920P
Download this rom https://www.fshare.vn/file/PRC6K2C8S4UP
This fix 1 https://www.fshare.vn/file/DZMSWWJPO2VZ
Fix 2 https://mega.nz/#!xc1TlKqS!ylDEK24P-hIzuSjj3kdPRNOclCcFWnx-22lH2eRLPDw
Fix 3 https://mega.nz/#!dQ9GRQqB!_tK2J2HeoNwTMetKlYms4PbaesT23UQGXwvw8R23QNs
Wipe full in twrp (cache/dalvic/data/system)
Flash 4 files in TWRP one by one.. then reboot. First boot may take upto 10min.. don't worry.
You may need to add an APN.
And you may use Linksvip.net to get High speed links from fshare site (if original site is slow.)

Ok, I'm in the process of downloading the ROM. 2 hour ETA. The Linksvip.net file was apparently removed. I'm going to make this my last resort for this phone. If this doesn't work this thing is going on Ebay!

Sorry to bring you bad news but what you trying to do isn't possible,
at least from what I've gathered.
I'm on the same boat and am really upset that Samsung makes things harder
every year and this time around CSC is totally different now.
Please let me know if you find any good news.
Switch to the canadian model and you'll have everything but root, i'm sure theres plenty of people that will do a straight swap.

download the rogers firmware from sammobile and join batstock rom telegram support channel. The OP can help you out. All you have to do is upload a file from the download there and he'll add the csc to a flashable twrp zip that you can install to fully enable all rogers features.

right, last time I say this, you need to flash your rom with the csc for rogers... sam mobile has it, batman rom op can help you install it.
A rogers csr will never help in this regard... :silly:

I got bad news for you. VOLTE and Wifi calling only works on android phones that has been bought from Rogers. I have the unlocked version from Samsung.ca and it still didn't work.
Correction: The only unlocked phones that work on Rogers VOLTE and Wifi-Calling are the iPhones.

i see.
next thing you want to try, make sure your build.prop product name matches that of the rogers phone.
also, my carrier disables feature if it detects root such as wifi calling. if you have magisk hide and an app for wifi calling uou may want to try hiding those apps from root.

I already called Rogers tech and VOLTE and WIFI Calling don't work on Android phones that was not from Rogers. No matter what you do, its the IMEI number that triggers their system to enable it on their end.
Unfortunately all carriers including Bell, Telus, Fido, Virgin and Freedom Mobile do this.
if it trully is incompatible, it is more likely to do with the difference between th band availability between the international model and canadian model... a quick google search will allow you to compare band availvility between phones and what bands are used for the carrier.
i don't believe it though, that just makes it hardee for them to aquire clients with existing handsets.

How to add Sprint Call Plus on unlocked s8+?

I'm using an unlocked s8+ on Sprint network. Everything works include Wi-Fi calling. But I didn't get any update for call plus like Sprint version did.
Is there any way to add call plus on unlocked s8+? Hope I don't have to flash Sprint firmware.
Thanks

According to seawolf, the Sprint Community Manager:
"Only Sprint phones will get CallingPLUS because that's our product, not Samsung's."

Just for updates, I flashed Sprint firmware and been using the call plus feature - I like it.
The only problem is I can't dial certain numbers, like #CHP or #NHP.

I just flashed my phone with Sprint firmware. Are you supposed to get the Sprint splash screen? I didn't.....I cant find the Calling Plus setting. Where is it?
PS. Just checked....no internet while on a call. So, not working, why?

TMO OnePlus 7 Pro

So... I have sim unlock, received bootloader unlock code from one plus... now what? From what I have read, I am able to root the stock firmware with Magisk.
If I want to go the custom rom route, it looks like a majority of the roms are based on international version and I need to convert to international first.
I did hear the TMO firmware is optimized for their Network for volte and wifi calling, so if I do change to international, what will be the advantages/disadvantages?
Sent from my GM1915 using Tapatalk
I'm using the int version of the OP7P with a TMO US Sim and cannot report any problems, VoLTE and VoWifi do work.
I think @joemossjr found there may be a LTE band priority difference between international and T-Mobile specific ROMs. TBH, I stick to an official T-Mobile ROM primarily because I want to get the best possible performance on T-Mobile's network.
I'm on T-Mobile, but have a rooted international rom installed. VoLTE and VoWifi ALWAYS work without issues.

So what's the advantage for a rooted international rom vs a rooted tmo rom?
My understanding is that most of the custom ROMs available are based off that version, but if I stay stock and rooted, other than updates coming faster, would there be any reason to do the conversion?

Well, the international rom comes straight from oneplus, so it won't be over bloated with T-Mobile background apps. Won't have the magneta boot screen. Of course these things can be delt with in a rooted tmobile rom version. So mainly quicker updates (fixes).
Thanks for the feedback. I know the international version is way more popular than tmo, so the conversion is inevitable. Maybe someone will be able to work some magic and be able to help us figure out what the tmo optimizations are and have some kind of patch we can zip with twrp.

That would be awesome! But yeah, I'd like to know if there's a huge difference in the mobile data or whatever compared to the T-Mobile rom as well.
Anyone know? I'm just wondering if the only advantage using the T-Mobile rom over the International one is better Volte and Vowifi? Or are they pretty much the same?
Using the int version (bought it to avoid the unlock and reflash hassl, return the TMO OP7P.to the TMO shop after I found out after having asked when buying) with US and DE TMO sims, I did not find any issues. The OP7P finally supports VoLTE and VoWiFi with German TMO which the OP6 did not.
The only thing I've noticed so far running International on T-Mobile is a couple times I've lost signal completely and I'll get two SIM card symbols in my staus bar until I reboot. Otherwise it's been perfect.
I'm on TMO, bootloader unlock, rooted with twrp installed, for some reasons i can't install adaway it says not enough storage. I have plenty of storage like 230G. Can't find any answer as to why.
