BT Openzone - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm with Vodafone UK and disabled every option I can find to so my phone auto connecting to BT openzone, yet if I have my wifi enabled when out and about it keeps connecting to it.
I wouldn't mind but can't get it to actually work, so would rather it not connect at all.
This isn't the same as connecting to open networks as it doesn't do that automatically it only connects to BT openzone and networks I have set it to remember.
Anyone any ideas what else I can set to stop this?

Try going into Wi-Fi and forgetting all the BT connections that you can see

Do you have something that blocks network access, like DroidWall, installed?
EDIT: To clear up - DroidWall has the ability to block an app's access to the network for 3g, wifi, or both. So it's POSSIBLE, if you have it installed, that you have it allowed for 3g, but not for wi-fi.
That said: is it ONLY on your home wi-fi that you get this? Try it on another wi-fi network. Does it work on any other wi-fi network? If so, then if you think there is no firewall on your home wi-fi, then I think you're wrong.
it does not on any wi fi network and I did not installed any kind if firewall app

Not a very large sampling size. I'd try some more.
EDIT: someone else on here was having trouble with a web site on wifi, that worked on 3g. Turned out he had issues with his hosts file. If you're rooted, look in /etc for a hosts file, and see if it has addresses for vlingo in it. I don't know what those addresses might be, you'll have to research that yourself.

the folder is actually created by an apk to prevent ads in games and there are done urls that are redirected to some IP will look if vlingo is in it
EDIT: deleted the file still doesn't work one thing I noticed it gives.error when it hear noises if I don't make any noise then no error it just waits for command

Hmm. Well, SOMETHING is blocking your phone from getting to vlingo's servers when you're on wifi. ... But I've run out of ideas, if you're SURE you don't have a firewall on your home wifi, and you got rid of your/etc/hosts file.
How many other wifi networks have you tried this on now?

I woke up and voila it works with home wi fi . don't know what happened :-D now the market problem remains only. market apps not showing

Delete Wifi calling...help please

Can someone PLEASE tell me where to find the wifi calling service and or app so that i can get rid of this garbage annoying service and icon. Thank you.
No it's not in my settings. Yes I'm using a custom Rom but no one else using the Rom is having the issue so if someone could just tell me where to locate it in root explorer that'd be great. Thanks
Btw I deleted the WiFicall.Apk in system /app and it's still there so I know that's not it

IN the phone app, menu settings, should be at the bottom.
Under the dialing tab, hit the menu, choose call settings
at the bottom under Internet Call Settings
Try Titanium Back Up from Playstore, and go to Menu ---> Then Batch, find it and un-install it from there.
Lol it's not in either of those places. It's not in titanium backup either. Anyone know where it is in system?

Does it count as calling from abroad? Or does it just use regular minutes?
Go to settings > More Settings and uncheck wifi calling
And wifi calling deducts from your limited minutes. It isnt free calling but its just in case you have a bad phone signal you can use someones wifi to make calls. Once you make that call you cant be out of the wifi range or your call will drop. I disabled mine.

Tap portable wifi hotspot (not the slider switch) and it gives you the configuration, you can either put your own password in, or check "Show characters" to display the password.

[REQ] app that makes portable hotspot for wifi

Hi.
im wondering if theres an app that can make a portable wifi hotspot FOR THE WIFI U ARE CONNECTED TO.
I know I have portable wifi hotspot on my note 2, but its only for mobile data not for wifi.
Why not just connect to the router itself?

In moments such as where you don't want to give your routers password for a stranger for a temporary purpose..
I also need this...
I don't think there's an app that can do this. If you use the wifi radio to connect to a router, you can't use it at the same time to create an hotspot. I'm quite sure of that. Sorry for my bad english guys

Mms on Wi-Fi??

I can't send mms on Wi-Fi. Anyone know how to get this working?
I also have been trying to turn off the voice when I get calls that reads out the callers name. Any idea about where you can turn off that feature?

I have this problem but only with MMS originating from certain iPhones.
I was reading online and I get the feeling this is a problem with carrier/iPhone settings and not the s5 so there might not be a way to fix it.
Might try disabling automatic download of MMS and try downloading it manually after turning wi-fi off as a temporary solution
Yea it works on regular data. I just was wondering if anyone else could not send on wifi of anyone knew how to turn off the call voice announcement.
Maybe a bug u say?

I have the same issue.. Doesnt matter if i use the stock messaging app or hangouts.. and if im on edge i get the message that says click here to download the message from the person who sent a group message.. Instead it going to the group thread.
I wonder if its a T-Mobile thing or what? I dont remember having this issue with the M8..

I think if you disable wifi calling, it works.. After that reboot and give it a try.

Why would you need send mms over wifi since all plans are unlimited talk and text?
Also, when I have wifi calling enabled I can't send group messages. When I disable it, it works just fine..

Then it won't send. I called to and they said it must be my phone or a provisioning issue. I have had two different gs5 and they both wouldn't work. I'm sure it's provisioning

Yep.. Go get a new SIM card. That's what fixed mine when I was having issues with group messaging not being an option under messages.
Ok I went to the tmobile store. Make sure you are using a SIM with ISIS. I have a new one and now it works. I do have to be connected to WiFi calling though.
