My gf phone on bnh5 and get text messages don't come through when connected to wifi any ideas?
Is WIFI calling enabled? I've missed texts and calls when using WIFI calling.
It's wifi calling's fault. Just turn it off if you really don't need it. It's really pretty bad.

Hi there, i just want to know how to test the wifi calling, or how to se it, hope you can give me step by step instructions.. thanks
Not trying to be a smart ass or anything, but I would just turn on WiFi, enable WiFi calling, make sure it is running and connected to T-Mobile then either make or receive a call.
There is really not much set-up to the app other than connecting to a WiFi network and turning it on. The app should give you status messages letting you know if WiFi calling is working or not. You should also see a WiFi calling icon in the notification bar.
when your on wifi calling shouldn't it be able to send and receive MMS?
I'm using Bulletproof 2.2.1
And I'm unable to send MMS on wifi calling, I can only send when its off and using data
But I am able to receive via wifi calling (actually its kinda buggy on/off)
Which is weird cause I remember using quicksense and it was the other way around haha
If anyone has info on hows yours works please post, will like to know what I can do. Thanks!
Ive recently had a problem with my wifi calling in that I am able to make calls just fine but am unable to send text messages. The message just constantly says sending but never goes through until i turn off the wifi calling. Is the wifi calling only meant for calls and prevents messages from being sent? I can't imagine that it doesnt support SMS but maybe I'm wrong. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks
You are in the wrong place, our phones don't have WiFi calling unfortunately. Here is where I think you need to be.

I've tried searching if anyone had this issue, but I can't find anything. When my wifi is on, I have no signal. When I turn it off, my signal bar goes full again. I'm pretty sure this has to do with wifi calling, because when that's turned off and wifi is on, I don't have an issue. I'm just noting this because I'm not sure if it's a bug or it's meant to be that way. When I put "cellular preferred" my signal shows up again. Anyone else experience this?
Yes it's definitely got to do with the WiFi calling. Just disable it and you'll be fine.

that is exactly how wifi calling works, it's been that way since the very first iteration of wifi calling.... since your calls go via wifi, and data is also on wifi, it disables the cellular radio to save power, essentially you look to your wifi signal indicator for signal strength
I've concluded something about this, even tho you see no signal your getting signal ,I can send myself a text or anyone with WiFi calling on and no bars ...so evidently there is signal ,because sms works off data only and wifi calling does not support sms or mms only calls , so if sms can go thru there must be signal even tho it's visually not evident

Hey all, been a long time since I've been down here, but I got a Verizon S9+ last week. Bone stock with latest update. I've had wifi calling issues right from the start. My house has terrible service, so with my old S4 I was almost always on wifi calling at home.
My issues:
It seems totally random. Sometimes it automatically switches to wifi calling no problem, other times it simply won't switch, even though I can't get out a text message or a call. Usually a reboot fixes the problem, but I don't need to be rebooting all day when I'm at home, and I miss calls and texts all the time. In testing, it's switching fine sometimes, and I can run upstairs and into the basement while on a call, and it will automatically switch back and forth. Other times, if it has even one bar of service, it will not switch, even though I can't make calls or send texts.
I have tried network reset, and factory data reset, no joy. Wifi calling is on, and I set "prefer wifi while roaming". If I am in airplane mode, even when connected to wifi, it will not make a call or send a text.
Another odd issue is with a group text. If I send a text to multiple people at once, I get an "invalid address" error.
It seems a lot of people on the internet are asking about issues with wifi calling with the S9's, should I just dump this thing and downgrade to an S8?
