Okay so tmobile's phone plan was a little too much, so I switch over to Walmart's family mobile tmobile plan thing! Now my wifi calling doesn't work, does someone have a zip or something that can fix this?

Are you trying to use voip? What problem are you having, be more specific.
Okay I switched to Family Mobile (with walmart) and when I try to turn on Wifi calling this shows up:
W006. 15 ISP or T-Mobile network error
I don't know why because Family mobile uses T-Mobile satellites so why isn't it working??

What is wifi calling?
Wifi calling is using a wifi connection to magnify the strength of your phones calling and messaging signal!

It seems like wifi calling is not supported by Family Mobile. You might want to call customer support to see if they can help you set it up. Though it uses t-mobile, t-mobile network recognized that you are not their customer.

The special SIM card is meant for the NFC functionality per T-Mo rep.

You don't need a special sim card just a newer one that's made for 4g. And you don't actually "need" it , I was able to use WiFi with my older gen sim.
I think its mostly for bete 4g connection.
I noticed a major dif in the phone when I put in the updated sim card.
Just ask tmo for a new sim I'd you don't have one, they shouldn't charge you for it, but then again....lol

I only got WiFi calling working after I got the TM9177 sim card. When I called tmobile they told me I could get one at their store for $20. Ended up getting one on Amazon for $7 with free shipping. I am on energy's latest ROM with stock kernel and WiFi calling works perfectly.
Well it would be perfect if I could send mms over WiFi calling. Has anyone been able to get this to work? A Google search for "TM9177 WiFi calling mms" shows that there are at least a few people that have been sending mms over WiFi. I get very spotty reception inside my apartment and this would be an awesome improvement to this already awesome phone.

I just think it's that particular ROM with some WiFi calling issues. MMS doesn't work over WiFi calling and texting over WiFi calling has issues too. Bullet Proof is working for WiFi calling including MMS that's what I'm currently on until those issues get ironed out.

My coworker has the Galaxy S II and he's flashed his phone he was able unlock the hotspot that already came with his phone. I was wondering if anyone has been able to do the same for the MoPho and if so could anyone possibly give me the link for this software.
You have to root.
Sent from my MB855 using XDA
Well I do have root.I need a wifi tether that isn't running in ad-hoc mode but infrastructure and the only one I know to do that would be the phone's own hotspot already installed but need to be unlocked
That's weird cause for some reason the phone's own hotspot won't work for me at times, but the app does. Sorry I can't help then.
Sent from my MB855 using XDA
Thats because the hot spot on the phone is ties in with sprint, you want wifi tether, just google it, and a custom kernel

I currently make use of AT&T's network of Wifi hotspots because I have the minimum data plan. They're spread throughout my city so I'm able to connect when I'm out to lunch or away from my school or work's wifi network. Do custom roms still allow the device to connect to AT&T Wifi hotspots? If not, is there an app I can backup and restore using Titanium to grant access? I know many of the custom roms remove "AT&T bloat", but I would like to keep whatever software is on the i717 that allows it to connect to AT&T's Wifi hotspots for free. I tried searching but the answers were mixed and different per device. Thanks for your help!
Surom works with at&t wifi spots. Can't vouch for the others but im think they will.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Why would ANY custom rom not work? Only reason I could see is if the custom roms removes the at& t app
All the app does is connect automatically
If you didn't have it or say had a sprint phone you just have to open a browser and connect first
Noteworthy and Alpha 2 work as well.

I searched a bit bit can't seem to find an answer to this, which surprises me. Had anyone gotten the tmobile WiFi calling app to work on the At&t Note? I know there are options, but none seem to work as well as the one that comes straight from tmobile.

Does gtalk work? It works for me but I dunno I never use WiFi calling...

I gave up on that thing about six weeks ago. Now I use Viber. It works in any country I've been in, on wifi or cellular data.
T-Mobile WiFi calling is tied up in the kernel, to my knowledge you would need a custom kernel for it to work, or a hack that adds the necessary data to the kernel to make it work. I have a T-Mobile HD2 and when I was using it , tons of kernel modding went into making WiFi calling because of course the hd2 wasn't originally android and it needed a modded kernel to make it work, and even after it working it wasn't very stable .

I've been searching for weeks as well and came up with nothing. I've read that it's part of the kernel, part of the TouchWiz framework, etc. Seems there's way too many factors to get the native wifi calling for t-mobile. Apparently, back in the day t-mobile was using GAN based wifi calling, and it was an app. People got it to work on the t-mobile sensation 4g, but that's an HTC phone so it won't work for us. I was reading up on a thread in the galaxy s2 forums of some devs trying to get the native wifi calling on that device (FYI, tmo now uses an IMS based wifi calling structure) and there's a lot of work involved, including modifying some of the framework files, the phone apk and the settings apk.
The best solution at this point is to just flash the Tmo Note stock ROM in the Tmo Note Dev forum. User Tomin.fhl was kind enough to make it flashable and wifi calling works great for me on that. Just wish I was able to use AOKP or PA with wifi calling though
Yeah, I figured out how to get it done, just flash the TMobile stock ROM which is fine with me since I'm on TMobile and actually like the stock... Then you need a new Sim.

Dont you need the AWS chip for that stuff, isnt this a hardware limitation??????
Whatever you need is already built into our phones. I have been using the tmobile WiFi calling feature in my at&t note for a while now. No problems.

What's the name of the app, can I get that from play store or can you please share .apk file
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
If you follow the instructions to flash any stock based T-Mobile ROM onto your i717, it will be there. You need a new SIM though.

GrooVeIP will let you do voip (3g and wifi)
just make sure to set your gvoice account to use your email address as the primary number.
voila! incoming and outgoing voip calls (works for every carrier i've come across)
Wondering if anyone has seen anything on this for the note? I recently moved and tmobile service sucks but I get a good wifi signal in my apartment! Just wondering if there is any other solutions besides gvoice...I get free minutes when I use wifi calling also with tmobile so it would be awesome if it could be incorporated.
Yeah, while there are 3rd party solutions like GrooveIP, the best solution is to follow the link I posted and flash the T Mobile note img file and install the tmobile stock ROM which includes the true tmobile WiFi calling feature.

If you follow the link, toward the bottom of the first post there are instructions on running T-mobile ROM's on the i717. Follow those and you won't have any problems. I also have the at&t version, I believe though, you will have to be on the t-mobile network.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
Yes, right now I am using my note on tmobile, so I guess it has been flashed to or with some other firmware....So would I still need a new sim I do not see why I would.....So you are saying just flashing a tmobile compatible rom. Do you have any suggestions? Maybe one with less bloatware and better battery life.

but that means you have to be on the "stock" ROM
the apps let you do that on any rom . . .

Might want to make a guide on how to do this. I feel like the T-Mobile Wi-Fi calling is in silent but in high demand by unlocked users.
I'm curious...if the T-Mobile stock ROMs work, why wouldn't a custom ROM for Tmobile also work? Has anyone tried?
