T-Mobile Amaze 4g Software Update- WiFi calling included - HTC Amaze 4G

Time to check for updates! Per tmonews.com, an update is available that includes wifi calling. I can verify that it does in fact include wifi calling.

Well I just went to check for updates and I see here that it says the update includes wifi calling and new sim card, so on and so forth.
Anyway it's downloading now.
Will report back once it's done.
Edit:
My phone has been updated successfully to version 1.43.531.3 and "Wifi Calling Feature" is now under Settings.
Except I have ER05 "Invalid SIM Card" which means I can't use wifi calling until I get the "new" SIM card.
Anyway that's the update!

Does this WiFi calling not handle WiFi to cellular handoffs? My phone says WiFi calling requires me to be in WiFi area all the time and my signal bars are null and have an "x" above them. Anyone else seeing this?

Oh I was never rooted. But thanks anyway.

Error REG99
-OTA updated to 1.43.531.3.
-Have new SIM card since day 1.
-911 Address set up.
Attempting to enable Wi-Fi calling results with REG99 error. Will call 611 later and see what they have to say...

Mine is working perfectly...thank God because I get really crappy signal in my apartment...

Make sure you get a UICC-GBA (or 3G-G) SIM - your local retail store should know what that is....

My phone had previously only been temporarily rooted. No Bootloader change, appears the old Zerg Rush no longer works for that after the update to 1.43.513.3. What do I need to do with that image file linked and what does that affect?

You need to go back into Settings/WiFi calling preferences and select Cellular Preferred

First you would need to unlock your bootloader.
Afterwards find a custom rom that you would want to install and put it somewhere on your sdcard.
Put the attached zip file in the root directory of the external sdcard (ie /sdcard2/PH85IMG.zip) and power off your phone.
Hold down the volume down button while pressing power.
You should see a white screen and it'll scan your sdcard then find the .zip file.
It should prompt you to update the recovery. Volume up to update.
Then reboot by pressing the power button.
When the phone is powered up delete the PH85IMG.zip file (or simply rename it or move it, your call. Just as long as it's no longer in the root of the sdcard.)
Now to get to recovery you have two options.
Download ROM Manager and select the Reboot to Recovery option.
Power off the phone again, hold Volume Down button, press Power to get to the hboot screen (white scree), select RECOVERY.
From this you can install custom roms.

So it does handoff from wifi to gsm?

Just like the old Wifi Calling, this one doesn't hand off. If you're on Wifi calling and on a call and you leave wifi area, the call will drop.

what if you have a T Mobile phone and using it on another carrier. Can you still get the update?
thanks

I checked software updates and it says mine is up to date. I am rooted and running quiksense. Not sure it that makes a difference.

You will have to wait for the dev to publish an update.

++please>>>helppppppp

my atrix was fine today, but the signal suddenly disappeared from my carrier, and not make calls anymore. when I put my SIM card in another phone it recognizes the signal from my carrier and I can call. any ideas?
thanks
HELP!!!!
please
can be a problem in the GSM frequency?? Because I can find other carrier..
may have burned only one frequency?
how to check?
is possible to burn only the 2100 mhz frequence??
1. Try to search network in setting. Than choose your carrier..
2. Last way is to flash your atrix.
Power off / power on the phone. Double check your network and APN settings. Otherwise you might be looking at a factory data reset...

Are you still without a signal?
Have you tried the factory reset yet?...
if you can, try someone elses sim card in your phone. Its a long shot but I have seen it work in the past. If it works, takes it out and then put yours in. Otherwise Flash SBF, or take it in for warranty replacement.
Just out of curiosity, have you installed any weird 3rd party apps recently?...

Might not explain the calling, but do you have anything in your APN list?

WiFi won't hand off to 3G - App issue or best Wi-Fi performance issue?

I have been having an issue with WiFi where it won't disconnect when leaving a hotspot. The device shows that it is still connected even though I'm miles from the router and won't pick up 3G. I performed a hard reset and on a fresh load everything appeared to be fine. When I walked out of WiFi range 3G picked up immediately. This morning, the issue is back.
Based upon doing a factory reset and it working, I believe it must be an app issue. Does anyone know of any apps that would cause a wifi lock or otherwise prevent the hand-off? I have over 150 apps installed and would prefer not to go one by one if someone can point me to any known issues.

I followed the guide at the following link and it worked perfectly for me. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1770501
Thinking through this further I did restore the wifi ssids from a titanium backup. TB restores data only - could there be an issue with that? I'm just really puzzled here.
I just did more testing. If I turn "Best Wi-Fi Performance" off I can get the device to switch to 3g when I'm out of range. I'd like to retain this setting but it obviously doesn't handoff correctly. Is there a timeout setting somewhere?

Sprint Wifi Calling network error issue

Just a heads up, if you want this feature enabled you hatfa call sprint and have it turned on for that particular line. The error isnt really and error. Theyll push a service update and a prl update for whatever reason. after a reboot, youll be able to accept and esign. Boom. Wifi calling. Also, Tech support seems to be the only people that can do this.
I didn't have any issues activating Wi-Fi calling on my phone. I opened it up, agreed to things, phone rebooted and it works.
I just figured if anyone had a problem, check there first.

I actually had to call as my device wouldn't activate by default. Sprint had to push the settings to my device. This helped me know my device wasn't defective as no one else seemed to have a problem but me. Thanks for the thread!

WIFI Calling

So I did a restore using the LG tool and I am missing the wifi calling app. I can't seem to get it at all from any source, I've read some discussions about it but haven't gotten anywhere with it.
Anyone have some advice ? Ive tried all the ## diag numbers and all of that to try to get the sprint software to load but it doesn't load the WIFI calling app or any other sprint apps.
Can someone maybe provide me with the APK ?
Hopefully this helps!
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1605415/SprintWiFiCall.apk
I am not sure how to make this stuff active..I've tried every procedure possible on this to get it enabled. ##RTN# and nothing no Sprint boot or shutdown or Sprint apps including the wifi calling.
I'm not sure if it's a blessing or now I can't use any of those features anymore.

I've used the tool 5 times to get back to stock (things I've tried that don't work, never with the build prop except the multi window) and not once has all the apps installed. I.e. wifi calling. You must know your msl. Once you know that you're golden. Restore back to stock. Don't bother with downloading or really setting up anything. Go to phone, dial ##rtn#. Option 2 i believe, put in your msl and bingo. It will restart have you sign in again and all that jazz and whalla. Wifi calling and all the other Sprint bs is back. Have any questions please ask.

Advanced Calling active?

I just made a call and my LTE didn't drop and I was able to surf the internet while on the call so I think the official OTA is about to drop and they've activated the advanced calling features.
on prerooted .509 btw
I just gave mine a try on .485 and it dropped my LTE as soon as the call began. Can anyone else confirm that it is working on the alternate lollipop?
You can see the ongoing call in the status bar as well as the active LTE

was it active on your line before with another device? Mine was, and I suppose it could be location specific. Who knows for sure, but it is definitely working for me. Simultaneous voice/data and HD calling.

No, it wasn't active on my line before but we have over 40 phones on the business account and there is no way to activate it on our side of the account management.
Coworkers with the GS5/6 iPhones have advanced calling.
I can't seem to get it working either. Hmmm, I wonder if it is a regional thing or why one person can the feature over the others.

I think unless you had it active already on a different device it won't work. I suspect they have activated it for testing prior to the lollipop update.
Again it's possible they've only activated it for testing it in limited areas.

Still nothing on .485. I have the option for advanced calling and when I hit it, it says to restart my phone in 5 minutes, but when I restart, there is no options available and it says I have to activate it again.
