Setting apk - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5

So my goal is to get the volte/advanced calling(video calling) on my unlocked sprint note 5 which is on verizon everything works lte/text/mms but since sprint didn't offer this they never unlocked it I was hoping that since tmobile note 5 has it maybe y'alls setting could be ported or work by flashing any help would be much appreciated

using sprint note 5 with tmobile

I have an unlocked sprint note 5 and trying to flash a tmobile rom. But when I do I get no service and can't access my apn settings. What would I have to change to make this work? I can't be the only one with the same problem
The sprint note 5 has different radio hardware than the other note 5's so to get phone calls and data to work you need to run sprint roms.

Foxfi in verizon N5 with a different carrier or overseas?

Hi guys! I'm thinking about buying a Verizon note 5 and bring it to Mexico with me, I don't really care about root stuff but I do care about the wifi hotspot. I've read around here that foxfi app works for Verizon note 5 even after the MM update .
So my question is if the Verizon Note 5 wifi hotspot with foxfi would work with a different carrier either in the us or overseas, has anyone tried to do that with a different carrier? Thank you!!
Anyone please ?

Foxfi usage doubt

Hi community I would be glad if you could help me get something clear...
Does foxfi work with the network or the device itself? It says it works for example with... Verizon note 5 but what if I want to put my t mobile sim card inside a Verizon note 5 and try to wifi tether with a t mobile sim card ? Has anyone tried to use foxfi in a similar way?
I'm asking this because I finally decided and I just got a t mobile note 5 and now my brother wants one, I'm planning to give him one for his birthday but he's in t mobile and the Verizon variant is way cheaper
Thank you!
PS I apologize if this subject does not belong here as I just got my t mobile note 5 I decided to post here

I wouldn't recommend trying to run a verizon note 5 on tmobile...the 920V variant is extra locked down, so root and tons are going to be an issue...if he's ok with bone stock, sure, it'll likely work on a tmo sim with a byod account but it'll still have verizon's locked bootloader, etc, and even odin will give you **** about trying to flash another variant fw....I'm not saying it CAN'T be done, but i don't recall having read of any similar experiences and everything i know about the way samsung has locked stuff for Verizon says odin isn't going to allow another (for instance T variant) firmware to be flashed...definitely won't be able to do it without tripping knox, and likely can't at all...so it would be stock verizon or nothing...to my knowledge...
Hence why it's so much cheaper...

Can S8+ Verizon be used with Sprint?

Can S8+ Verizon (paid in full) be used with Sprint? If so, what do I need to do? Should I have it unlocked from Verizon? Should I flash a Sprint Rom to it in order to get Sprint feature like Wi-Fi calling? Thanks.

It looks like the key is getting your phone manually added to their system so it'll work. Doing the carrier rom swap in the help section would give you everything a Sprint phone would come with.

Unlocked Pre-Order from Samsung w ATT SIM - will I be able to use WiFi calling /VoLTE

Current Note8 user on ATT (phone locked to carrier). I pre-ordered a Note20 Ultra from Samsung direct, unlocked version. Have been off XDA really for a couple years and not rooting/modding much lately but have read that ATT will not allow unlocked phones on their network to use WiFi Calling and/or VoLTE. If true, are there workaround options for me (assuming I stick w ATT as the carrier I mean) to get these to work, or should I cancel the unlocked model and order the ATT version? Was hoping to root eventually and remove bloatware / play w custom ROMs again on the Ultra etc etc. - that is why I ordered an unlocked version.
Thanks gents for the guidance here! Best forum around for us phone geeks
If it will be like Note 9 or 10 plus just have to flash the U version csc with odin and it will give you wifi calling advanced..messaging..volte

Much thanks - I will do this then when it arrives.
Did not work for me on the unlocked note 10+. Worked right away on the tmobile.
Att was actually fun to have. Nothing that att expected worked on the unlocked device. For example I had unlimited hotspot, despite it was not included in my att plan.

That's bizarre. I am rethinking this unlocked route. I must have wifi calling since signal at the house is terrible in my area. I don't need the drama of uncertainty if this will work or not. Might as well cancel the unlocked one and just upgrade via att. Oy. Wtf is with att these days? They lost my directv account last year and now their wireless policies are looking like a royal pita.
I don't think you have to worry .... ATT seems to consistently allow Samsung unlocked devices to have carrier functions
You just have to flash the U CSC as mentioned above. Worked for me on Note 10 and is currently working on a s20 ultra device

Whats going on buddy. You jumping on the Ultra?

I strongly recommend switching your order to the ATT model. I got my note 10+ unlocked based off the suggestions found here saying that flashing the att firmware would give me all the features, and I've been through a year of headaches.
For a little wile i was able to enjoy wifi calling, voicemail and VOLTE, but after my first software update the features were lost. i was able to get them back briefly by putting my sim back in an old Att phone and keeping it for a day or two, but that trick never lasted past a week. I've tried re-flashing the software, switching back to unlocked and then back to ATT, basically anything i could think of and it never worked.
calling ATT didn't help either, as the reps gave me a canned line about not supporting outside phones. the whole reason I'm updating to the 20 ultra is to just get my phone fully functional with an ATT model

Thanks darth. Yeah, I switched to the att version. Hate the hidden tracking bloatware etc that comes with it but must have a very workable phone for daily work calls and wifi calling is a must. No drama is my motto these days. Thank you for reporting your experience.
I had the same situation with my unlocked Pixel 4 XL, keep calling ATT until I got the right person to modify my sim to allow WiFi Calling to work, that's my plan when I get my unlocked 20 Ultra.
I'm not a gent, but I doI have the Note 20 Ultra in for review and am using it with an AT&T SIM. VoLTE works, no option for WiFi calling.

What worries me is the 5G. Will unlocked work for ATT 5G?
It does on my unlocked Galaxy S20+ 5G. The Note 20 Ultra is a ways to release and their system doesn't yet correctly identify the IMEI, so I can't say for sure what will happen after release day.

Hi Lisa,
Your reviews are the best, so thank you first of all. Can you check if it has any eSIM capabilities? Supposedly S20 was going to get an update to allow eSIM use in US but that never happened...
Thanks . I'm not seeing anything under connection settings on our US unlocked Note 20 Ultra (there's no IMEI listed or cellular network option listed under connection settings when no nano SIM is installed. EsimClient is running on the phone, which makes me think the hardware must be there. EsimClient is not running on my GS 20+ unlocked.

Great, thank you for checking and comparing with S20+ !
eSIMClient running gives me hope that we will get eSIM support in an update...Still perplexed how or why Samsung has gone out of the way to disable eSIM on US variants when Apple, Google support it.

Ha! Thanks Lisa (love your tech vids!!) - I switched to the ATT version. Supposed to be here 8/21. I can't take a chance with wifi calling being borked, or that just that I may need to Odin-flash updates or CSC packs periodically to keep up with the monthly patches (ie force an unlocked unit to keep working on ATT's network if my previous firmware gets overwritten etc. I mean). I guess as I got older I went from a tech pioneer and adopter to just an end user LOL.... I just need it to work. Maybe I can do that package remove thingy and chop the bloatware periodically... we shall see once the community gets these units and starts their dev magic for us.
I guess I will need to make an appt at the local ATT store in a week to get on a new 5G plan from my current 4G one to take advantage of the coming speeds.
You're welcome- glad you enjoy our vids! With AT&T, you can simply change your plan online, no need to visit a store. The mid and high tier unlimited plans include 5G.

I flashed my unlocked Note 10 plus and didnt get wifi calling, visual voicemail, VOLTE.....only reason I am up grading is to get an ATT version, and to skip all the hassle of an unlocked version. Never again.

Could you tell me more. I have the US unlocked note 20 ultra, I put an AT&T sim in (from my note 9 unlocked) and I can't find an option to turn on wifi calling. I pretty much gave up on feature like this, because I would rather have the unlocked phone, but if it works now maybe I am missing something.
Thanks
