MT4G WiFi Calling App on Vibrant - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone been able to pull the WiFi calling app out of the myTouch 4G ROM for use on the Vibrant? I really could use that functionality as I have poor coverage at my house. I searched around the forums and did not find anything promising. I am not sure if that app can even be ported but I know that T-Mobile plans to eventually make it available on other Android devices so I am hoping it is possible on the Vibrant.

I'm not sure if it's the same program that's on the G2 but it has been discussed and it seems that it will not work due to whatever reason. I cannot remember the exact reasons from the thread regarding this, some security issues within the program if I remember right. It looks like everyone will just have to wait until it gets all sorted out or Tmobile makes it available for all.

Help with android market on cricket

is there a way to enable android market on crickets network. im ale to use it via wifi but thats all is there a way to use the market with out wifi?
i was wondering this as well
Browser works for me and i can get active sync to exchange server
but nothing else seems to work over mobile network
works fine with wifi, which is ok, but would be nice to have the rest working on mobile network as well
I have tried PMing people across different boards now, but seem to be reffered to people that will do it for some cash which I can understand why.. anyways any help is welcomed
Most apps not working on cricket 3G
I have the same issue. I just got my HTC Incredible flashed for Cricket and, although I have not checked Exchange, which may work, it seems that only the browser works on the network. Of course, everything is fine over WiFi. This is a drag.
Getting incredible flashed is a rip off. It's impossible, not rooted. Talk text and web can with, that's all.
For eris, search androidforums.com in the eris section, in the All things root area for the word cricket and open up the fully on cricket thread. eris fully on cricket. Don't Ever pay for a flash, those idiots are just stealing your money. It's free.
@pko I think we were posting nearly the same message with 10 mins of each other.
Yeah, I'm hearing surprisingly little chatter on the forums re: root status of the Incredible.
Sorry for the thread filler folks!

[Q] T-Mobile admits Vibrant has no UMA support

Ive had many "not registered" errors when trying to place a calls over WiFi and called in for support to TMo many times. The third week and the fourth or fifth "PDA" service guy went all out and then gave up and turned me over to "Loyalty". Its like getting switched to the inquisition. THEY told me, 'bad news' Vibrant can't make calls over WiFi. SO I confessed it only worked 50% of the time.
When I agreed to take the phone, TMo said it would support UMA. In the mean time I think they decided they would not support UMA. I can call TMo phone mail no problem and the phone rings and then disconnects. It will make a call from "voice" but shows the not registered error when I dial a number. It has to be TMo router settings. They offered to send me a 3G Curve which they said would support UMA telephony, but they had no other phones - oh yah maybe the "Shaddow" was available but even they wouldn't go so far. I'm SOOOO sick of RIM, really, really sick. So I rejected that. So now I'm making calls and receiving calls over WiFi, but not reliably and with no support.
I'm fairly certain this is the tip of the big iceberg. My Vibrant was very early pre-purchase, so it might not have had all the TMo down mods. Never the less, it seems crazy that I would pay them to use my own DSL/WiFi as I seem to be doing with my HTC Incredible/Verizon phone. It works great, but of course I pay.
TMo gave me some questionable information regarding using Vonage, which I found does is not suposed to work with the Vibrant. They also said no Android phone will work with TMo hot spots, which I am inclined to accept. It appears all the carriers will do anything to keep a branded hand set off of free WiFi telephony. So I'm trying Google Voice. It registers, but I have so far not recieved a call to my new Gvoice phone number.
Do I need to root the phone? Are there apps that will help? Does any one out there think the 2.2 upgrade with the TMo holy water has a ghost of a chance of making WiFi phone calls without a TMo charge? My Incredible/Verizon still tethers on PDA-net and I think that is not charged. But I'm not clear on that either.
I just pre-bought a Tab through Cell Phone Hut. I will see if a device free of TMo tweeks will route telephony over WiFi. All I really need is a cheep pre-paid SIMS card for OTA. It's nuts thinking to pay 3G or 4G OTA data rates when the same data is free over WiFi. There will be many Android apps to do all your data I/O when you are in range.
cheers all... thx for any light on this!
Umm what? You're able to make calls on wifi 50% Of the time. You can make Google voice calls over wifi? You were told the vibrant would have uma? ?? Maybe I'm misunderstanding you but....
Google voice is NOT a voip service so i think you're misjudging its use.
Vibrant was never said to have wifi calling, just like every other android.
An app called kineto was recently announced that does wifi calling but its not uma. it doesn't hand off to cell network. Its announced to be available for the new mytouch n moto defy.
Also, tmo uma will no longer give you 'free calling'. It takes from your minutes so its only real advantage is to extend coverage.
I'm a woman. Stop assuming everyone on this forum is a bro, dude, or man. Sent from my Vibrant.
The Vibrant hasn't been confirmed to ever get Wifi calling but it was demo'ed on a Vibrant running 2.2. The feature could possibly be added to the vibrant once it receives the 2.2 update.
This is strange. We've had our vibrants about a week. When I'm home I have the Wifi turned on. The signal bars drop to zero. I have just assumed that my voice calls were going over Wifi to our DSL modem over the Internet.
Note: We happen to have a T-Mo wireless router from back in the days when we were using it with our Blackberries to keep the minutes down. Subsequently T-Mo switched us to an unlimited plan, but we still use this router for one hard-wired home line.

Signal bars dropping to zero is just a visual indicator; doesn't necessarily mean there is zero signal, just not enough signal to flip the visual indicator. This happens to me quite a lot - I have no signal, but someone calls me and the call quality is fine.
In any case - basic logical fallacy - correlation does not necessarily imply correlation. Although it would be super nice to make calls over wifi!
<------ Tmo Retail Rep
There is no Android phone that supports UMA at the moment. The only Android that will have UMA that has been announced so far is the myTouch HD. Not sure why someone would tell you the Vibrant has the feature.
Not only that, 0 bars doesn't mean no service. The circle with a slash means no service
I'm a woman. Stop assuming everyone on this forum is a bro, dude, or man. Sent from my Vibrant.
Where was it ever said that the Vibrant would have UMA? Its one thing if a rep was mistaken but no slick, ad, spec sheet, or anything else that I recall ever implied that UMA was going to be available. I came from a Blackberry to the Vibrant so I felt I was aware that UMA was not available.
UMA in Android NOT
Apparently Android has no UMA support, but a lot of people want it:
Check out Issue 6242 - Google's board for android code / issues.
I am thinking about moving to vibrant and tmobile. the only thing that is stopping me is the lack of uma support on the vibrant. Does anyone know whether this is capability will be added with the 2.2 update??
Have you guys not tried any of the new leaked froyo roms? They all have wifi calling and it works, although its not uma and doesn't hand off it works great. This is actually a Godsend for I have had Tmobile for 7 years and I get no service in my house, finally a solution. I'm not sure this will be released in the upcoming froyo update or it was just pulled from the Mytouch4g and they made it work for our phones.

[BUG] Persistent Data Connectivity Issues

Hey there,
I have had this issue since I got my hands on my Atrix but it still bugs me that the issue has never been fixed. Others also still have these issues, but I hope that with our talented devs, a fix can be found.
When connected to my home WiFi network, Internet works fine.
When I disable WiFi on my phone, Data won't reconnect and the H icon won't reappear.
When I walk away from my WiFi range, Data again doesn't reconnect like it should.
When using data, after a minute or two the Icon will start to show repeated attempts of uploading data when I click something, but will never download anything, causing my website or app to hang and eventually time out. This is oddly fixed by me going to my APN settings, editing Vodafone Australia (my internet apn) but not changing anything and then going settings > save. Causing data to disconnect and reconnect correctly. (most of the time)
This is very annoying. I can stay connected to data for a max of 5 minutes, and I know it's not the network as my friend with a GT540 Optimus can stay connected for hours at a time at the same place in the same conditions.
If any dev can help then it would be greatly appreciated (or if anyone knows of a fix), I am willing to help test anything created and also provide any logs that may help narrow down the issue (although I made need assistance in retrieving those logs as I've never tried) in addition, the mods used on my phone can be found below in my signature except the radio info which is 1.77.30P
You can contact me on this thread, PM or rarely in the freenode chat
Thanks for your time.

is there really nothing I can do to help? This issue alone is making me consider selling up and buying a SGS2 or Sensation, since I rely heavily on a constant data connection.
I guess my only option is to wait for CM7 and hope that fixes the issues I'm seeing..
Wifi connection at my house is a pain. It won't connect to it at all unless I go into the wifi settings menu and turn it on from there. I also have problems with it losing data connection when going into the Market or Navigation...which was pretty bad on my trip to Arkansas. I just thought it was my Atrix.
Personally, every Android phone I have owned has had glaring hardware/software issues EXCEPT my Inspire. I'm switching to Apple. *prepares to be flamed*

LOL, i won't flame you. Android vs iOS is the same argument as Windows vs MacOS.
It's a "Features" vs "Stability" trade off. Apple maintains better stability by cutting down features, locking things down and limiting usability <- not that hard to accomplish. Try to work in Windows 7 under non-admin account and without installing useless crap. You will be surprised as to how smooth and nice everything functions.
But for me, Android / Windows feature list wins by a large margin. I've only had one frustratingly buggy Android phone and it was a Droid 2 Global. Again, not Android's fault but Motorola's for releasing crappy software.
Anyway, if stability is your main goal, then iPhone is the phone for you
You might want to also try a Nexus phone (perhaps Nexus 3?). I've heard they are supremely stable. (never actually owned one )
p.s. I've seen a quote by someone on here, that half the fun from owning an Android phone is modding it. And for me that's 100% true.

Is that the right radio for your phone?
I thought the 30p was for AT&T only? Could this be your problem? You may need an international radio.
I know you have an unlocked AT&T, but I thought the radio was carrier specific, and not phone specific.
I could be wrong though. My wife tells me I am always wrong!

hmm that seems like a good idea, but can I even flash an international radio on an AT&T handset? Also Vodafone Australia uses the exact same frequencies that AT&T use except AT&T 4G is considered Vodafone 850.

Someone more technically minded with the Atrix will have to answer this. I thought the hardware was the same, so in theory flashing the wrong radio shouldn't do anything but give you data loss if it doesn't work. Then again, I am frequently wrong.

epic find. that's my post on an old user handle which I haven't bothered to change yes, I won this phone but so far it's been quite bugged. I originally thought that I was given a prototype/dev model since they shipped it before it was released but now I know that's not the case.

Tmobile WiFi calling on Galaxy Note

I've been using GrooveIP as an alternative to Tmobile WiFi calling. I relied heavily on Tmobile wifi calling because the reception in my home is terrible. GrooveIP works, but there's a delay in the audio that's really impossible to tolerate. Does anyone know a way to install tmobile wifi calling on the note? Is there an APK out there that might work? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
I'm using this ICS rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1581065

also interested in this.
i also made a thread a little while back never got anywhere...would like to see this
Tmobile wifi calling is mostly broken on ICS in the form that we would need it for this rom. We would need to use a GAN based wifi calling, the only phone slated to get ICS that uses GAN wifi calling is the sensation 4g from tmobile. Im not sure if the ICS update for that will bring GAN based wifi calling or IMS based wifi calling. Either way its going to be a headache to get it running. As soon as they update the sensation 4g to ICS ill start messing around with it, and for anyone else that though maybe the one S ics roms may have some answers, just know that the one s uses an IMS based wifi calling. GAN uses kineto and IMS uses movial. im pretty sure thats how it goes anyway.
Bump...any new developments for this feature?
Another gratuitous bump.
the issue is the kernel until source gets here nothing can be done about this at all... wait till the source gets released
Ive always wanted wifi calling on the Galaxy Note but with AT&T..im not sure if its possible. I did see a thread about it but i know like the guy above said it has too do with the kernel..or maybe the framework-res.apk
I would love to resolve the issue it is you are having as well as mines.

[Q] Have good LTE signal and apps wont utilize. any ideas?

Hey everyone, my wife and I just got new M9's on sprint last Monday. Thought everything was going fine but then I noticed that whenever I was on LTE a lot bof my apps wouldn't work. I can watch Netflix and use tweetcaster, but a lot of other apps won't work(facebook,Pandora, and google now I can search but if i try voice recognition it says it can't connect to the server). Everything works fine on 3g and Wi-Fi. I have done speed tests of the LTE and they are always at least 7mbps down and 2 up. Have tried clearing data/cache and uninstall/reinstall of apps and still nothing. But it's not just my phone it's my wife this is happening on also. Any help would be appreciated cause I can't figure it out. Thanks everyone!
Try toggling airplane mode or mobile data on/off.
It sounds like the "data drop" issue some of us are having.
I am having the same problem i called sprint and they couldn't help at all i think is a phone defect

I also have run into this issue, it happened with my evo LTE until I unlocked/rooted my phone and could install custom ROMs and now with my M9 , which is completely stock with just the OTA I only have one single bar and LTE constantly switches to 3G and I run into data transfer issues even when it says its connected.

Nevermind still doesn't work after airplane mode toggle I was wrong. Speed tests say I'm getting around 14mbps download speeds. This is super frustrating. I don't understand.works fine on Wi-Fi and pretty sure 3g too. Could it be the apps themselves? Cause it's just some. But they are major apps like Pandora and facebook. Should be ready for this.

I've had the exact same problem since day 1 with my phone two weeks ago. You probably also have the issue where you are typically only at 1 signal bar when on LTE but full bars when on 3g. I've also noticed it hits certain apps but not others. Usually toggling airplane mode and/or mobile data will fix it for me, but sometimes i have to completely reboot. even after the OTA update last week, the problem persisted. i brought my phone into a sprint store on sunday and they replicated the problem but had no idea the cause, so they swapped the phone out. same problem with the replacement, so i'd imagine we're stuck waiting for a software/radio/firmware update before this is resolved

Thank you for this. Feels good just to hear someone else describe my problems exactly. Wonder if it s all sprint m9 or just maybe ones people got early cause I got mine the Monday before release. Same on both my wife and my phone. I can't understand why some work and some don't. Now that you say it my LTE does most of the time just say one bar. And 3g is usually full. Hope a fix comes soon. Wish we could get conformation that ots a known issue. Facebook isn't a huge deal ask I can just use the mobile site but Pandora ducks to not have it.
Did yours come with headphones? The sprint site said no when we ordered and I asked customer care on twitter. Both said no headphones but ours both came with them.

I wonder if it's a DNS issue on LTE.
3G, LTE and WIFI are all pretty separate interfaces and have their own "setup".
What you might try doing is see if you can PING the server by NAME and by IP Address on each of those interfaces.
You may have to dig a bit to figure out what servers the various apps are using.
If it pings by IP but not by NAME it's a DNS issue.
Ever since Lollipop there have been some IPV6 issues that cause DNS problems. But those have been usually on WIFI only.
There are some tools in Google Play to disable IPV6 but it only disables it on WIFI interface.
Like on Lollipop M8, MMS would not work on WIFI for some folks and disabling IPV6 would temporarily fix it.
A really nice tool to debug with is called FING that you can get from Google Play. It has built in PING, Trace Route and a bunch of other goodies.
I used it to find a rogue device on my work Network.
If some apps work and others don't it's very likely a DNS issues. Unless Sprint is now blocking some ports on LTE.
You can also test HOST name and PORT for a service, this takes some serious digging to see if the port is blocked.
There is a tool in FING for that too called TCP Connection Tester. I usually have used TELNET on Desktop PC's to do the same.
If you google that service you can often find the host and port it's using.
Here is an example: Let's say SPOTIFY won't work on LTE
Get the Port and HOST from a search I did that showed this. I searched for SPOTIFY HOST PORT

I'm happy it's not just mine either I mean it sucks but last thing I wanted was a bad radio.
Same issue here, when on LTE can't send snaps (just an example) also push notifications don't seem to come through. Though it might have been due to the rom I was using but doesn't seem to be the case. Even RUU'd it and it didn't help same exact issue. 3G just fine, wi-fi just fine. This is driving me nuts. I guess it sounds like it's a Sprint issue and not hardware which is good but calling Sprint Tech support is usually usless unless you get to the higher ups.
My friend has a pure stock locked non-rooted s-on phone he says he has been having issues as well.
We might wanna get something like this going over at Sprint Community hopefully try and get the issue moved up. I was thinking it might be a DNS issue as well.
Has anyone found a solution?
I have yet to find or see a solution. Sprint or HTC hasn't said anything about it officially. Really sucks cause a bunch of my stuff just doesn't work right over LTE including push notifications won't come through. I have not enjoyed this phone thus far.
I'd advise you all to return your phone that's what I did with mine
Sent from my HTCONE using XDA Free mobile app
I've swapped for another M9, doing the same thing. I'm on the phone with Sprint now, they have escalated to a second tech. That tech claims they are not aware of any issues on the M9, but did say they heard of one S6 having such issues. The tech advised to swap it yet again.
If enough people return them they might actually look at the problem. I remember when the evo4G had an issue similar to this, you couldn't stream music Sprint's proxy would mess it up. Took them a while to release a fix. Really this isn't an acceptable problem, I'm mean half the apps are worthless cause they won't work over LTE. I'm past my return period and I'm unlocked and this appears not to be a hardware problem. I just wish they would confirm something that they are looking into it. I hate calling Sprint for tech support, it will be the usual non-sense of resetting the phone and doing data profile updates. Then they bump it up and tell you they will call you back when half the time they never do anyway and even if they do it's usually not with a fix. I remember I had a problem getting Direct Connect provisioned on the M8 when it came out. Regular CSR couldn't add the code correctly, they did end up fixing it eventually but no thanks to the techs I worked with nor did they really follow with me more than once. An issue like this needs to make it to the correct people which appears that has not happened yet.
I agree. I am chatting with HTC Support now.

Let me know what they say, I know Sprint has yet to acknowledge the issue. All this phone swapping business for probably no reason is gonna cost them a lot. I guess it builds a nice refurb stash.
