From my understanding, the wifi calling app from US Tmobile only works for US Tmobile customers, correct me if i'm wrong.
Is there any way to import this app to another region Defy (mines from UK) and get it working on any network?

No because no UK Networks support it.
I have a Fritz!Box Wlan DSL router from AVM.
This thing is absolutely cool as they provide an app to make/receive
calls over wifi. (FritzFon App)
You can route analog/ISDN/Voip telephone lines to the Defy over Wifi.
If your normal phone rings, your Defy rings also
The Fritz!Box routers are popular in germany, don't know in what other countries
they are sold.
May also work from outside via VPN, but i never tried.

Yeah, this is a great App! Maybe I'll try the VPN option, since it would be a great way to get around call forwarding.
BTW: The app is working great with a FB 7170 as well as with FB 7390
How about Skype?
Or for that matter, Google Voice? http://www.google.com/mobile/voice/

Actually, Orange supports UMA in the UK.
Not sure if the T-Mobile USA wi-fi app would work with it though - maybe trying to get ahold of a compatible app from an Orange-branded Android handset would be a better bet.
Of course, that doesn't help anyone on any of the other UK networks.

I use succesfully yahoo messenger with voice(taked from market)
in a call from europe to us
call was made from defy to a pc
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App
where can i get the apk for the wifi calling?
Just get Sipdroid from the Market. You can register it with any sip server (in my case Voipbuster so I can make calls to many countries for virtually nothing, and people from Holland can call me on my Dutch 'landline' number no matter where I am ). The program integrates in the dialer and you can set it to automatic or manual. I set it so that every time I put a # at the end of a number it uses voip. Works great over wifi. Haven't tried calling over 2G yet. No 3G available here.
For SIP VoIP, CSIPSimple has more codec support than SIPDroid which may or may not be important for some people. Depends on the internet reliability and speeds which are available to you.
But because of how SIP works, there are still some niggling issues with battery life in some configurations as it needs to keep alive a connection in order to receive calls. Personally I'm only using it to dial out to landlines on demand at a cheaper rate than mobile.
Sipdroid works quite well over 3G as does Skype. 2G is rather pushing it but some claim they have had decent results. Both of them use quite a lot of juice though.
The main problem with Sipdroid is lack of echo cancelation so should help to use a headset. Skype is a lot better in that regard
i had been using dell streak for last 4 mnths, but still cldnt find video calling app for dell streak over 3G, i'm concern with 3g video call not data call (like skype or fring).
whilie googling i read somewhere tht android doesnt support this calling facility , but my bro has Samsung Galaxy S which has inbuilt 3G video calling with phone application.
Does anybody knw how can i do 3G video calling through dell streak??
or suggest any remedy over this??
thnx in advance
exactly no comments till now ???
guys we need ur help here !!!!!!!!
Even my previous older phones (Samsung Omnia, Samsung Omnia 2) had this option but it's not possible with the Streak. I've asked the same question a long time ago and nobody replied really, it's just possible if someone ports the (video)call app from the Galaxy S or Galaxy tab or maybe another android phone. android 2.3/gingerbread will support SIP calling but that's a whole different story...
Alternate solutions are QIK, TANGO, FRING but then you still depend on software on both sides and app/service needs to be running on both and need to be in an area that supports data ofcourse...
I use ooVoo. I use it to call to my pc and I've used it tho video call a an evo
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA Premium App
hey, try the new fring or Tango. they both work over 3g
guys, he's talking about carrier supported video calls which isn't available in the US. Fring/tango/oovoo etc use data and go through the apps servers, where as what he's talking about it just counts against your minutes i.e. uses no data.
To the OP, i'd contact your wireless carrier and dell and see what they come up with. I haven't been overseas in a while so never looked it up.
guys, 'm talking abt 3g video calling supported by carrier operator and not abt fring, oovoo which operate on data
In 3G video calling u can do video call to any other person using 3G video call enable phone having 3g video calling facility provided by operator.
You dont need any data interface like gprs, 3g data, hspa or wifi juss need 3g video call enabled in service and a 3g video call enabled phone like samsung galaxy S android, nokia 5800 for symbian.
this video not to specific to any platform, software and can only work on 3g phone to 3g phone
I believe the op is talking about video calls over the cellular network like we were able to do over some older phone or modern home video phone not over the 3G network itself.
It is slightly confusing because he is asking for video over 3G not data when our Data is our 3G and vice versa. They are one in the same. If you do not have a data plan you do not have a 3G plan. You have purely a GSM cellular plan. (or CDMA depending upon your carrier)
I do not think any of the android phone at the moment (other then the Sammy now that you brought it up, but I dont know firsthand) are capable of video calls over the cellular network without using our data. Over wifi yes, but not over the cell network like we used to with the old Nokias and some of the older winmo devices.

its not any older technology...3g video call is possible on cellular network only after UMTS techology...by using H264 protocol...its not available on 2nd generation GSM network n these video call works w/o data usage operator has pulse based billing for these videocalls....n almost every symbian based smart phone frm N97 to N8 has this facility available...even android base samsung galaxy s has this....as u dont knw abt this thr4 u might confused.

i know what his talking about.when u go to make a call it should give two options
voice call
video call
since it has a front facing camera .
in the uk this option was available on many networks but hardly people would use it because it was expensive also u had to be in a place where u have a strong network connection and a phone which supports the feature .
not only samsung, also with GD910 LG phone watch u can videocall
But india right now only my operator bsnl is providing [email protected] paisa/min which us quite cheap as of now

Still no solution to the 3G native calls
Hi All devs,
Could you please help us out here. Can somebody port the phone.apk from Galaxy S to Streak so that we can get the same option of video calling over UMTS.
Any help would be much appreciated.
The video calling feature has been removed by Google from Android OS version 4.0 and above. Why? Ask them. You still have it in Samsung devices because it has been added by Samsung, not because the stock Android OS (made by Google) would support it. For your Dell Streak, apparently,they chose to go with the original ROM made by Google. So..that's why. And about how to enable it...I honestly don't know. Still looking for a solution myself.
Ahh, but by that statement video calling via 3G should be an option in the Streak, since the Streak was on Gingerbread at the time the thread was created. It's not. Meaning either Google never had the capability in the first place or Dell had it removed from the stock ROM.
Regardless, it's not an option on the Streak, and to add it I believe would require some reverse engineering. I don't think it would be quite as simple as decompiling framework-res.apk and making changes to XML files, like what I did to get the network location service active on my cheap-a$$ Coby tablet.

In sri lanka 3G video calling is provided by some carrier operators. And call charges are same as normal voice calls. My old phone Nokia 3120c had this facility and i used it sometimes. Now im also finding a way to do video calls with my android. I dont know about mobile phone technology, but i think it is not a hardware thing. May be a simple app can do it.
bump, how do I hack and enable a video call option?

Folks, please give me a hand!
I have the Note from Rogers Canada, upgraded to CM9 release, my provider is Fido, and I'm struggling with getting VoIP work over 3G.
1. Native ICS client. It's OK on WiFi, and on 3G the call is being established in and out, but no sound either direction. I heard 3G calling was blocked in GB client, and there was even a method tweaking the APK to make it work, but obviously something is very different in ICS - that tweak is not applicable - I can't find proper file in this APK.
2. cSipSimple - does not work at all, makes the phone acting weird. Well, last update was in 2011, maybe not compatible with ICS at all.
3. SipDroid - crashes.
4. Dell Voice - crashes.
My provider is freephoneline.ca, and I'm testing VoIP with it without success. I'm a network engineer with rich VoIP experience, and run at home a sophisticated FreePBX setup accessible from Internet. I've tried to register my Note on my home PBX as an extension, and I see same behavior - phones ring, calls establish, but no sound.
I don't understand where's the trouble exactly. Is it the Note, or CM9, or my provider is allowing SIP but blocking RTP? I see that all three Fido's APNs are doing NAT, because the phone shows the registered IP that is different from what I see in whatismyip. Could it be the problem? Problems with NATting RTP usually result in no inbound voice, but outbound should be OK...
I wonder if there's a packet sniffer for Android so I could check the traces, LOL.
Whoever has some success doing SIP calling over Rogers/Fido 3G, please help me out.
Thanks!
Shameless self-bump.
Guys, I wonder if nobody knows, or nobody cares? I know it's most likely wrong forum to ask, please push me in right direction...

I had a similar setup on Telus, and everything works alright. And then I tried Rogers 3G, there is only one way audio, I can't hear anything. But the other side can hear me. And also, my phone can't receive incoming either.
It's probably a problem/restriction with Rogers.

Confirmed, with latest CSipSimple nightly build (Jeez, they didn't release since 2011!!!) I was able to make calls, now with one way audio (out), outbound but not incoming calls, and if the remote party hangs, the phone does not detect it.
Those symptoms are familiar - NAT can't properly handle UDP inwards. Both SIP and RTP are affected. Enabling STUN did not help either.
Well, I'm going to buy data only SIM from Bell, stay tuned...

Well, recently I've been at Rock Point (Lake Eerie), and both my personal Note (Fido) and business Blackberry (Rogers) had no signal on 3G and even GSM, while my friend was chattering and browsing on his Bell connected phone... Maybe Bell's 3G coverage is spotty, but so is Rogers. I've seen too many times that Rogers drops to GSM with no apparent reason, and that means no decent data for VoIP.
We'll see. I'm aiming at LTE anyways, and Bell's LTE spot is WAY bigger according to their official coverage maps.
Someone has to be a guinea pig for new technologies. I hate the idea of paying $70 for CityFido + data, while I could pay $25-$35 for Bell's flex plus $0 for FreePhoneLine.

Hmmm, I wonder how you did it, can't make it work.
Okay, now I'm on Bell 3G (no LTE yet).
1. Registering with FPL directly gives me outbound calls OK, inbound call get voicemail (on 3G), STUN has no effect. WiFi calling is fine.
2. Registering through PBXes and FPL - outbound calls even to VM gives me "488 / Not acceptable here" on 3G, works OK on WiFi. Incoming calls make my cell ring, but when I pick up the call I'm getting same 488 on 3G. What's wrong here?
Will try it on Fido 3G...

Yes, and it was a CSipSimple glitch.
By default it has SILK + PCMU + PCMA. I've left only PCMU and it stopped working on 3G only (WiFi was OK). Resetting CSipSimple to defaults resolved it. Weird...
BTW I doubt that PBXes only accepts ILBC, there's quite a number of codecs mentioned in their online help.

I've managed to recreate this eventually. I don't know what's so special about PBXes, but yes it works fine with both Fido and Bell 3G. Thanks for the clue! Looks like I'm going to eliminate my home FreePBX and switch to PBXes.
However, sound is choppy like hell on both, barely usable. And I'm still struggling to get LTE on Bell's SIM, hope it will improve things.
One more question - phonebook in my Android has all the numbers in international format - +1-xxx-xxx-xxxx, +7-xxx-xxx-xxxx etc. When I dial directly from my address book into CSipSiple->PBXes->FPL, FPL rejects the call saying it's not covered by my plan. I believe I need substitute +1 with 1, +7 with 0117 and so on, but how do I do this? PBXes is based on FreePBX, and its rules use + as a special character for adding prefixes I believe...

you are right, pbxes accept pcmu as well, but i thought it's too heavy for 3g, they allow g729a "PASSTHU" only to paid users.
for the choppiness, sip require packets loss way lower than 1%, i'm still trying to figure out what to do about that

for the number formats, since i have all numbers stored on google voice, i went there and deleted all "+" and "-"
in csipsimple, there's an option called filter, i think you can reformat there
a few more tweaks for the choppiness, I disabled echo cancelling since sound from ear piece is not likely to reach microphone.
I also have trouble with the new csipsimple, when i use ilbc, it will freeze after about 30 seconds.
if you directly connect to freephoneline.ca, you need to use PCMU in order to receive phone call over 3G, somehow freephoneline disabled g729a on incoming calls.
so much for today's tweaking. good luck, let me know what you find out

SIP as signalling protocol is doing fine. RTP transport for audio is a problem.
I believe nothing can be done over 3G. I'm trying to make it work over LTE - it's supposed to be much better.
However I figured out that unlocked I717R (Rogers) does not connect to Bell's LTE cloud however it should.
I'm going to flash the Bell's radio and try again. I wonder if there's just Bell's baseband for ICS I can download and burn with Odin. I have only found full stock ICS for Bell, and that's a long and messy update path.

Ok, another report.
1. After upgrading radio from Rogers to Bell, Bell LTE is pretty solid and stable while I'm in GTA.
2. Generally, VoIP over 3G is crap, both Bell and Fido/Rogers. VoIP over LTE is mostly OK. No surprise.
3. CSipSimple cannot properly handle Bluetooth handover. By some reason, the call always starts on speakerphone, then has to be routed manually either to BT or earpiece.
4. SIP keepalives are draining battery really fast, no matter if it's Wifi, 3G, or LTE.
5. PBXes.org is GROSS... I've stopped and dismissed my home FreePBX.
Fido has just started offering LTE. Tonight will try and upgrade my SIM card. I wonder though if I need to flash my radio back to Rogers to make it work...
General conclusion - VoIP over cell data is not ready yet for general use. However, geeks like me can save a few cents...
A few questions:
1. Is it possible to block voice cellular calls in and out? My Bell SIM card 'for tablets' still allows voice calls, and every time I'm hitting the wrong button I'm making 40 cents pay-per-minute charge. Customer service says it cannot be blocked on their side.
2. Is there any way to route SMS messages to VoIP and vice versa?
3. Is there a number portability between cell networks and VoIP operators (Canada and US, just to see a big picture)?
I believe this discussion is off-topic here. Can someone suggest a proper forum?
if you use csipsimple, you can disable mobile, if you use stock phone app, you can set use internet call only.

Thanks thunderzhao!
At the moment I decided to stop my VoIP over cellular experiments, this is not productive.
First, Fido has just offered unlimited national calling + 2Gb of data + convenience pack, all for $56, and it's a killer.
Second, new mobile version of Skype, however not SIP based, is soooo much simpler to deal with than SIP solutions. It has a super clear voice Skype-to-Skype (and video too), works seamlessly over firewalls and NAT, and has a decent quality over both HSPA and LTE.
Third, VoLTE is on the horizon (so I believe), and it will completely change the landscape of mobile services, plans, and prices.
Switching to waiting mode.
Fongo crashes on cm but works fine for me on cm10 and most touchwiz ICS ROMs.
I was in an area with no tmobile network and was not able to use the wifi calling and mobile texting. I tried using tmobiles APN without success.

I am on Mui global 11.0.11.
Any 3rd party rom with wifi calling working?

Correct. It doesn't work. This has been discussed before and is known. There's no apparent way to activate it. You can "unlock" the sliders in the settings menu for both wifi calling and VoLTE, but neither one works.
Anyone roms with working wifi calling and text?
Wifi calling does work with my Curtana 9S global. I'm on EE in the UK, no special permissions required from my operator, same with VoLTE. Both worked straight out of the box. Note the wifi calling icon in screenshot.
The problem might be down to your carrier.

Who knows when we'll get Mui 12.
Can anyone confirm wifi calling (tmobile USA) working with 3rd party ROM?

I'm in your exact situation. I also use T-Mobile. I also don't have a network preferences option. I unlocked both the wifi calling and the VoLTE option using the phone dialer codes that are posted on here somwhere. But neither seem to do anything as they are switched on. I'm inclined to believe that it IS IN FACT a software bug because I also have a Xiaomi Mi Note 10 using the same exact software (MIUI) and VoLTE and Wifi Calling work fine on that device.

I hope mui12 will solve this issue. I need wifi calling.
I have Tmo as well. I was unable to get volte/WiFi calling to work either with stock or on Havoc 3.7. The only alternative I came up with was to activate WiFi calling within google voice as a backup. WiFi calling worked through gvoice. I tested by removing my Tmo sim, and was able to make a call via WiFi only.
I believe it is a combination of both software and Tmo network configuration. Texting is also finicky always. However, gvoice is the only solution that I have come up with.
My previous phone, Umidigi, WiFi calling did work on stock firmware, but not on third party.
I've spent way too much time dealing with T-Mobile tech support trying to get wifi calling to work. I think it is a mix of both software and carrier interference. From what I gather, the crux of the issue is that your carrier has to approve IMS Registration. I don't believe there is a way to force it, unless someone would like to tell me I'm wrong.
I love this device, but it is becoming difficult to keep with Wifi calling unavailable as my coverage in my house is terrible.
