Is there a ROM in the Tmobile section that we could flash on our phones to get wifi calling working on our unlocked galaxy 2, I'm using Tmobile Sim

Probably would not be possible since the T-Mobile Galaxy S II is significantly different in hardware ie different radio, CPU, GPU, etc.
I would strongly advise against trying to flash one of their ROMs on your ATT GS2. If anything sell your ATT GS2 and get the T-Mobile version if you want all of T-Mobile's features.
Maybe you could figure out if the app or settings that allow WiFi calling could be integrated into your phone which I think is kind of far fetched as well. Good luck.
dont listen to him, dont just randomly flash a ROM that wasnt made for the ATT GS2

That is what I said in my post. I would never advise anyone to do anything that can and will brick their phone. You should read my post before responding so quickly.
Ok, thanks guys

In the worst case, download GrooVe IP and then you can use wifi GMail calling.
Looked through quite a few pages and haven't seen this asked. Unfortunately I can't put up with the call problems of the Gnex. I just use my phone too much for work. Was considering getting the s 3 under warranty replacement if they allow it. Does anyone know if can be rooted and unlocked?
It's not even available yet........

Genius in the house. I can't even count the number of time a device has been rooted before available. The international S3 was one of them.

What part of no one has this phone yet do you not understand? How can it be rooted or unlocked when Samsung hasn't released one yet? Have you not been following how tightly Samsung has been keeping these things under wraps??

Good luck getting the S3 as a warranty replacement because its not going to happen, the phone hasn't been released no one has one to mess with or anything so as of now it is unknown. If it was rooted I'm sure it would have been posted already all over different forums

Kinda what I figured but thought I would ask in case I had missed something.
Thanks for the luck I'll need it but the guy at the Verizon store today hinted that I might have a chance.

Yeah guys/girls at Verizon stores are stupider than my door knob, example went in to the store today to get a 4G LTE sim card for my thunderbolt that's been sitting in my night stand and now my sister wants to use and the lady and guy both working said that not only I needed to bring the device in but now there's a fee for the sim card :what:
I attempted to get the S3 as a replacement and from my understanding the only way it would be possible is if there was a certified like new device available.

Hmmm... I have a cracked screen and was thinking of using my insurance anyways. I wonder if I bring it in brand new and never even been taken out of the box if they would replace it that way? One could argue it's close to being the same phone to someone who doesn't really know the difference

First of all, the phone has already been released in Europe and parts of Asia for some time. Second, a while back somebody leaked the official samsung software rom for the S3, and hackers made quick work of it and had a root method within a day (http://www.ubergizmo.com/2012/05/samsung-galaxy-s3-rooted-stock-rom-leaked/). If you google "samsung s3 root" you will find lots of pages telling you how to root. Here's one example of such a site: http://theunlockr.com/2012/05/26/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-s3-smartphone/
I know people are saying that you cannot get a S3 as a replacement but in my situation they did give me an early upgrade to a RAZR Maxx. I had to pay 200 for it but I at least got a phone with good signal. I asked about the S3 as an option and the csr said I could if I was willing to wait. I had another upgrade coming so I had already preordered the S3. My wife is getting the RAZR MAXX and she is thrilled.

Umm no. The CDMA/LTE version from Verizon has NOT been released anywhere yet. It's totally different than the one you are talking about.
Sent from my GT-I9300 Galaxy S3.
I think China Telecom may also release it at about the same time, and it will be CDMA.
Its a samsung so 99% Yes, Though give it a few weeks, it'll be up to 100% and then mmmm aokp
from what i've heard all of us in north america (canada, America, will get the exact slab of hardware, Also at&t's source was just released tonight so sit tight maybe by the end of this week its gonna be rooted!)
Here is proof that phones get rooted before release all the time. ATT, Sprint, and T-Mobile S3s' all have been rooted before anyone has the phone. I'm sure that Verizon's is just around the corner.

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...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
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 .
RoloRacer Paranoid on JellyBean
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.

I forgot to mention mine is a at&t branded one I bought it unlocked and I think it is rooted as well. So would I still need ot follow the tmobile thread or is it all the same? LOL just trin to get wifi calling cause where I am at with school my service sucks...Also will this effect the 4g speed at all? I heard the att ones are a bit slower but when I am on 4g the thing flies...

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.

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?
Hello all, I have an ATT Samsung galaxy s2 sgh-I777. I flashed slimrom RC2 yesterday and all was going well. This morning I noticed that I was able to send texts and phone calls, and receive phone calls. But I cannot receive text messages at all. I reflashed that ROM, and even flashed another ROM but still the same issue. Is there any insight as to what it could be? How to fix it? Is it permanent? Will switching back to stock unrooted help?
Anything will help. Thank you.

Same here.
Same here on factory i717 Samsung Galaxy Note w/AT&T. Can receive SMS from self, but not any other ATT customer. Can receive from at least one other carrier, "C-Spire". Two separate ATT techs advise it's a nationwide problem with a percentage of random customers. Of 4 mobiles on same ATT business account, only 1 out of those 4 have the problem.

I'm a new when it comes to this. But if I have a bad ESN Verizon note 2. Can I use it on straight talk at&t with no problems. Cuz the ESN is only banned from verizon?
Also. When using it on straight talk at&t I'd still use Verizon based roms and radios? Just straight talks correct APN settings for data to come in.
Do I need a special ROM to get rid of the this isn't a Verizon Sim card stuff.

I thought they shared banned ESNs between each other? I thought that is why most people either sell it here with a note of bad esn or ship it over across seas.
I purchased a used Verizon Galaxy Note II knowing it had a bad ESN - planning to use it as wifi only. One day decided to try and see if a AT&T gophone sim would work. Don't know about the plan you're addressing - but AT&T absolutely activated the gophone sim. What I think AT&T will not do is activate if the phone's IMEI shows its stolen - but the previous owner not paying his/her bill to Verizon didn't seem to be a problem. Just my personal experience - not a universal, guaranteed answer
It works for me. I installed CM11 on my note and it worked like a champ!
Here's my next question is I'm going at&t st with this Verizon note. Now when I flash clean ROM. Old ROM I like. Do I use at&t network or verizon. Either way I know I have to manually input apn settings.
Am I better off using at&t Roms?...

because its a verizon device use a verizon rom, dont use at&t rom it may brick your device.
I agree with Bonkurei. Stick with Verizon Roms. Do NOT try the at&t roms.Stick with Verizon roms and you will be fine.
I agree run custom roms with Verizon settings

Better to buy I Verizon phone off the street to use with AT&T than an AT&T branded phone. Never know when you might wake up to "we're sorry, but this device has been blocked" lol nice insurance scams
Sent from my SM-G900V using XDA Free mobile app
Shot answer yes it will work with no issues, as long as the custom rom allows you to edit apns you will be golden, to get rid of the pesky non verizon sim message, either freeze the Samsung setup wizard apk with titanium backup or delete it all together. I have my Verizon note 2 on ST. I've been running beans 22 and have ad no issues at all. Also when choosing your network choose at&t, Verizon's won't work
Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk
Looks like you got an answer. However, carriers do share the ESN and IMEI numbers for devices and check for blacklisted devices. Prepaid plans may be a different matter, but I'd be willing to bet that they wouldn't activate it on any contract plans and you'll not get any kind of warranty on the device. So, if you break it, lose it, or brick it, you'll have to pay full price for the device. Probably would have been cheaper to pay your bill...
