I can send MMS via Wi-Fi calling but I can't download them, on my LG G2X (it was running Cyanogenmod 7) so I don't know if that matter I could send and receive. On this I can't unless I turn off Wi-Fi calling and acquire a signal to a tower which if home is difficult at best as I am in a pretty decent dead zone with reception here and there.

Thanks for that. Successfully did this for both Att & Vz variants.
Works! Successfully tested on SM-G900T1 MetroPCS running ViSX ROM (T-Mobile)
It works for a few hours. Woke up this morning and the same device connected said that it could not connect to the Internet. Still looking into it

Muniz, I found out that if I set my data to WCDMA (4G) it enables the Hotspot and let's users get on the Internet. When I enable 4GLTE, it disables access to the Internet. Do you know any way around it?

Are you saying that the mod is not necessary and hotspot can be enabled for all by switching to wcdma? Is this true for both MetroPCS and Tmobile?

No man, what I'm saying is that the mod works fine only on basic 4G. Not 4GLTE.

Got it, but I don't know what could be causing that. Others using the mod will have to chime in if they are having the same issue.

I would love to test it out on 4GLTE. Do you think there could be a check that stops it from enabling Internet for other devices?

Other devices should just see it as any other wifi access point. I am on att and lte is working without issues. Others on vz are also not having issues. I would be interested in hearing if tmobile users are having the same issue.
It's as if 4GLTE is blocked. If other variants are working. There has to be a setting that I could set inside my phone that should enable Internet.
can confirm not working on [ROM] Twi5ted Lollipop 5.0 V1 i am however using the native tether app.would it make a difference if i were use WiFi Tether Router byFabio Grasso,that was the app i was using on 4.2.
The native hotspot in the stock tmobile rom and the tmobile 5.0 visionx rom creates its own apn settings and always defaults and reverts to pc.tmobile.com apn. This mod will only disable tethering verification and turn hotspot on. The only method I found to work is to make tethering apn and lte apn editable through customer.xml file using root Explorer. LTE apn needs to be set to ipv/4 only, turn on hotspot and go to settings, apn, and delete the tethering apn. You have to delete tethering apn every time you connect to the hotspot because the apn gets recreated by the app. If someone could figure out why it gets recreated that'd be awesome so the hotspot could default to LTE fast t-mobile.com apn. I can't find anything even changing the tethering apn in customer.xml file doesn't work. It gets recreated every time you turn on hotspot, but can be deleted once made editable through customer.xml file.

As stated in the OP this is for stock builds only.

Lol, clearly stated. Anyways, my APNs are set to fast.metropcs.com. Not the default tmobile ones. It doesn't create any extra APNs.
In the customers.Xml, the LTE is ipv4 because I changed it thinking that the different protocols would interfere with the Internet access but it didn't. So I don't understand why it's still just 4G instead of LTE that is allowed through... Muniz, you think there is an area in the xml that we could change to test? Since there is a TMOBILE US Tethering section or something similar to that in that xml

I just ordered a G900T so will look into it once I have my new device and as time permits.
Thanks a lot. I been looking for this all over the web.

If it's not too much of an issue, do you think you can post the customer xmls for both the Att and Verizon variants. To see if there's anything in there?
Also, do you know why it is only 4G speeds that are capable of going through?

Attached is the Vz customer.xml, it is very different. Also, try changing "pcweb.tmobile.com" to "fast.t-mobile.com" on line 348 of the Tmobile customer.xml. Worth a shot.
I'm on the Sprint version. According to Sprint's website this is the first option you see under CONNECTIONS in Settings. For some reason it's not there on my phone.
I'm rooted and have messed with some stuff in the past like feature.xml to add stuff but I restored it to the original file.
I also see that I have a WiFi Calling app but it can't be opened. Does anyone have advice?
I have my own MVNO setup and I want to activate my Galaxy S5 (rooted) to support Wifi Calling. Is there a way to do that by ADB or some similar hacking form?
There seems to be a way suggested by this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software-hacking/developing-epdg-p-s-scsf-problem-t3419111
I was in an area with no tmobile network and was not able to use the wifi calling and mobile texting. I tried using tmobiles APN without success.
Anyone able to get wifi calling working?
I am on Mui global 11.0.11.
Any 3rd party rom with wifi calling working?
Thanks!
Correct. It doesn't work. This has been discussed before and is known. There's no apparent way to activate it. You can "unlock" the sliders in the settings menu for both wifi calling and VoLTE, but neither one works.
Anyone roms with working wifi calling and text?
Wifi calling does work with my Curtana 9S global. I'm on EE in the UK, no special permissions required from my operator, same with VoLTE. Both worked straight out of the box. Note the wifi calling icon in screenshot.
The problem might be down to your carrier.

I'm not saying I trust their word, but I spent some time talking to T-Mobile tech support, and he assured me it was a software issue. Maybe he was lying, but I'm hoping with MIUI, we may see it work.

Who knows when we'll get Mui 12.
Can anyone confirm wifi calling (tmobile USA) working with 3rd party ROM?

I'm in your exact situation. I also use T-Mobile. I also don't have a network preferences option. I unlocked both the wifi calling and the VoLTE option using the phone dialer codes that are posted on here somwhere. But neither seem to do anything as they are switched on. I'm inclined to believe that it IS IN FACT a software bug because I also have a Xiaomi Mi Note 10 using the same exact software (MIUI) and VoLTE and Wifi Calling work fine on that device.

I hope mui12 will solve this issue. I need wifi calling.
I have Tmo as well. I was unable to get volte/WiFi calling to work either with stock or on Havoc 3.7. The only alternative I came up with was to activate WiFi calling within google voice as a backup. WiFi calling worked through gvoice. I tested by removing my Tmo sim, and was able to make a call via WiFi only.
I believe it is a combination of both software and Tmo network configuration. Texting is also finicky always. However, gvoice is the only solution that I have come up with.
My previous phone, Umidigi, WiFi calling did work on stock firmware, but not on third party.
I've spent way too much time dealing with T-Mobile tech support trying to get wifi calling to work. I think it is a mix of both software and carrier interference. From what I gather, the crux of the issue is that your carrier has to approve IMS Registration. I don't believe there is a way to force it, unless someone would like to tell me I'm wrong.
I love this device, but it is becoming difficult to keep with Wifi calling unavailable as my coverage in my house is terrible.
