Hello everyone,
Has anyone here experienced issues with WiFi calling? I have it enabled and it initially received some sort of message stating that it was enabled, however I constantly have dropped calls at my home. Unless the feature is virtually useless, this leads me to believe that it isn't really working. Does anyone have any input?
I'm on patch level 2016-09-01 (6.0.1) on the H820 just to be clear.
Thanks for any input.
Have you tried putting the phone into airplane mode, then turning wifi & wifi calling back on? That should force it into wifi calling mode, the wifi signal with a + on it will let you know.

First off thank you for the response. I will try this, however I should point out that wifi calling shows the icons and therefore should supposedly be working. I just constantly have dropped calls and feel as though it isn't doing anything.

Hello everybody!
Someone of you has noticed a poor WiFi reception on Hero?
I'm experiencing a poor WiFi reception in my house when Hero is connect to internet thru an access point.
What happen is that after WiFi connection has been established the phone tends to loose it and restart connection thru GSM/3G link.
That happen also if phone stay in the same place without moving around and also when phone is close to access point location.
Any idea about way to solve the problem?
Regards.

Just an upgrade on issue...
If I turn off data connection thru GSM/3G and switch on WiFi seem that WiFi connection is stable so maybe issue come when both data connection are enabled...
Anyway is annoying shout down each time data connection on GSM/3D and power on WiFi!
Regards.
i believe wifi goes idle when not in use. so it connect to 3g or edge. However there is an app if not various in the market already to help keep wifi always on..
Do a search for wifi and see for yourself.

Thanks for suggestion!
At now I've solved turning off GSM/3G data connection when I'm at home anyway I guess that WiFi reception sometimes go away due to issue of the phone or maybe as way to save battery...
when that happen phone stay unconnected so I guess that should be better if I will check for apps that keep WiFi connection always working!

when the device goes into standby, the wifi is turned off to save battery poweer, and it will go back to 3G.
go into the wifi settings, press menu and select advanced.
select the timeout options
set to never and it will not turn off when in standby.
problem solved and you shouldn't have to turn off Mobile data, although with the settings widget on your homescreen turning mobile data off off each time is hardly going to ruin your life. in fact i tend to do this anyway, just cos i have spent too many years with windows mobile....
Here's an annoying bug I've found tho - on TMob UK
If I send an MMS from home, wifi on, it sits there, and doesn't send the message. Until I turn off wifi and 3G kicks in again.
Now I know for a fact that on my Magic, it was able to turn on 3g/HSPDA to send the message all by itself. Might have a look in thodse advanced settings tho to see if there is something I can do.. Not a biggie, just a bit of an annoyance.

I too, have been doing a search on Forums all over Google looking for a resolution to this.
I have noticed if Wi-Fi is enabled I am unable to send or receive MMS messages.
It is an annoyance having to turn Wi-Fi off each time also I am never to know if someone has tried to send a message in the first place.
Currently using T-Mobile G2 (rooted with MCR Rom 2.8) on T-Mobile UK
I have an LG Optimus L9 P765 (Indian variant) with Stock ROM v10d on it.
WiFi on my set seems to be misbehaving. It connects to my network and works fine for sometime, but when I leave it unused for about say 5 minutes the mobile does not connects with my WiFi network.
In notification bar it shows that it is connected but actually there is no data transfer occurring.
Its very irritating as I don't get instant emails, whatsapp chats etc.
Is anybody else facing the same problem ? Please suggest any remedy for this problem.
Yeah, same problem here.
I've got an Indian P765 with V10d stock ROM as well. If left idle for sometime, the wi-fi seems to be connected but no data transfer occurs.
The small upward pointing triangle is shown on the wi-fi icon in the notification area, but the data transfer LED of the wi-fi modem doesn't blink, and so no webpage loads.
But if the wi-fi is being used continously, the problem doesn't occur.
Looking forward to a solution, thanks.
Edit: Reduced the Beacon Interval of the Wi-Fi modem to 100ms. The data connection is maintained now.
Problem solved. The phone's working fine afterall.
Before that happens go into wifi settings press the menu button hot advanced and turn the wifi sleeping policy off that is all that I can suggest

Beacon Interval of my WiFi modem is already 100ms.
Problem still persists.
Any solution anybody.
The only solution for now is to change WiFi sleep policy to Never instead of Always in WiFi settings.
But that turns on Mobile data or 3G (which ever you have) which is more battery consuming.
And there's no point of keeping a smartphone offline by disabling either WiFi or Mobile data.
P769BK has a different wifi issue. All 6 of mine have had this same issue.
Enable wifi and use if for a few hours.If wifi router looses internet access and you try to download an MMS it fails.
Disable wifi and try downloading MMS via cellular network it fails. Airplane mode toggle does not work.
A reboot is required to fix this. Very irritating when connected to a wifi network that has a bad connection.
Don't even get me started with wifi-calling. It just plain sucks on 4.x ROMs.
I use WidgetSoid which gives WIFI and 3G icon (also called power switches) on Home Screen and reconnecting is just a HALF SECOND deal for me. Its even quickly re-connectable from WiFi PowerSwitch in Notification Panel.
By the way, I did not notice this issue on my P765 (india) L9. Works well with Vodafone Mumbai 3G, and WiFi always connected even after idle time upto 2 hours mostly at home. Like they always say, results may vary.
Problem: WiFi is not useable
Hey Guys,
i've got a huge problem. I can't switch my WiFi on. The problem exists since a few months and I've tried to fix that by myself but my knowledge about programming is quite small. Please help me. WiFi is one of the most important functions. Is sendng it to LG-Support the only way to get that fixed?
Pls Pls Pls HELP ME!

hi friend,
You already managed to solve your problem?. I have a similar problem, did the bootload and installed cyanongenmod 10.2 for P760 and everything worked perfectly, after I turn off my smartphone realized I was not connecting the wifi and even tapping the power button it does not turn on, put your smartphone in order factory original and still the problem continues.
Can someone help me?
Anyone else having problems reconnecting to a WiFi connection, or even seeing WiFi SSIDs after disconnecting from WiFi?
This happens to me intermittently. I have 5 WiFi SSIDs in my house. 2.4G and 5G from the FIOS router, and the same from a WiFi access point on another floor at the other end of the house, and a Guest network from the AP. I can normally see all of them from any point in the house, as well as half a dozen from nearby neighbors. And my s9+ normally connects, automatically, to my primary 5G connection without any problem.
But occasionally, after being out and coming back home, or after the phone has been asleep for a while, it won' see any SSIDs. Not mine, or the neighbors. I've tried scanning for WiFi networks, turning WiFi off, waiting a few, and turning it back on, but it doesn't see anything, and won't connect. I've even tried manually inputting the name of one of my access points, but the phone won't find it.
Turn on WiFi automatically is on, WiFi power saving mode is off (although I've had the same issue with it turned on), Keep WiFi on during sleep was set to While charging. I've changed it to always, but it will be a while to see if that helps.
The only way I've found to get it to see WiFi networks again is to reboot the phone.
Oh, and other devices, including other Android phones, see all the SSIDs without issue.
Any thoughts or ideas?
I have te same issue here, I can't find a fix.
Mine will not connect to mobile date after I turn my wifi off. I have to reboot the phone in order to be able to make a call or use data. It all seemed to happen when a pop up came on to enable wifi calling. I can't figure out how to turn that off.
I don't have acupp1's issue with mobile data, but I seem to have resolved the WiFi connection issue by not letting the phone turn WiFi off during sleep. Haven't had the problem since I changed that setting.
I got the same problem since I rooted
Been trying to figure out if its a VENDOR Firmware problem or what. I do know that every developer says its a bug with the s9 when rooting. I've personally watch the live log on TWRP when flashing and seen where it mounts the VENDOR Firmware and then unmounted at the end. So it could possibly be a problem between TWRP and the s9 ROMs idk know exactly yet but I'm looking for a solution also. But I'm going to try what you did with your WiFi then report back here.
Hi
I have a Xiaomi Note 8T which I like but it has a very odd problem with WiFi calling. Basically it's only working on "public" hotspots.
For example it works on my train I take to work... It works on the London underground.. it works in Starbucks and McDonald's but it doesn't work on my network at home.
I've tried using different WiFi channels at home but I can't figure it out. I don't block any outgoing connections at home .. my Samsung S10 works for WiFi calling at home . But not the Xiaomi
Any ideas why?
The phone connects to WiFi at home and works fine just calling doesn't work
Thanks
update to this thread:
it works in Airplane mode when I turn WiFi on. Turn airplane mode off and it stops working (actually the WiFi calling icon is still there, but make a call and it fails, then the icon disappears) but in airplane mode, wifi calls work perfectly. I just don't want to have to keep turning airplane mode on/off every time im at home because I forget to turn it off when i go out.
Hello, this is an old thread but it seems to be a COMMON STANDARD in the whole US Network for anyone besides the one sold by TMO and ATT.
Any news how this can be solved ?
I've noticed if I'm making a Wi-Fi call and walk away from the router, the call drops when it should seamlessly switch to 4G
I have a strong 4G signal outside the house, so it makes no sense, has anyone else noticed this?
Have you switched off Mobile Data Always Active in developer settings. That may make a difference.

Nope, that's still enabled.
I've noticed this as well. There's been several times that if I leave my wifi with wifi calling enabled to mobile data, I cannot make or receive phone calls until I turn on airplane mode and reset the connections. Super frustrating

Mine just cuts off and can call back again so not quite the same.
Same here, the radio on this phone is a disaster for many of us.
