contact TMobile Technical support for the MMS portion, the sim should be encoded already for it but if not the mms number might need to be changed on the phone

how did you get your phone unlocked? through Sprint? I tried multiple times and it still ulocked for domestic use atleast

Hey guys,
I have a SM-G900P and went through a lot of steps to get it properly working, at the best you will be able to get HSPA+ and if you do get LTE it will randomly go back to HSPA+ until you toggle airplane mode again. I now use a SM-G900T because of this very issue.
How I unlocked it: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/help/sm-g900p-straight-talk-att-t3331284
IDoneApps App
Had to enable the "GCF Setting" on the phone.
Me attempting to force enable GSM LTE bands on this phone: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/general/how-to-sm-g900p-lte-band-t3333760

I had a similar issue when I took my verizon s5 over to tmobile. There was an exploit to get the unlocked Dev bootloader, once I did that I was able to flash a tmobile stock rom and wifi calling and LTE started working normally. Here is a link to what I did to get it working on my phone. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71697776&postcount=280

[Q] AT&T to T-Mobile S3

Hey guys. I couldn't get AT&T to unlock my s3 so I downgraded to android 4.1.1 to do the free unlocking method. It worked, but my phone has AT&T apps in it, and when updating it says crap like updating from AT&T server or w/e.
When using ODIN, was I supposed to install the AT&T or the T-Mobile version of the 4.1.1 android?
I figured since it's an at&t phone I have to reinstall the at&t so it doesnt mess up the drivers or anything (I totally made up that conclusion myself).
Also, I don't get 4g LTE now and only get E internet. Do I have to do some settings so the phone cooperates with T-Mobile?
As always, thank you very much for the helping hands.

You're probably going to need to setup the apns for Tmobiles network to work for your phone fully.
It automatically made one called tmobile but I dont know if I have to edit it.
Was I supposed to install android 4.1.1 for at&t or tmobile?

As far as i know you should be fine on the at&t rom, You're just going to need to edit those apns probably.

Well, how about this? I install the T-Mobile rom. Shouldn't that have the proper apns?
Now another question comes to mind. Since this is originally an at&t phone, will installing the T-Mobile rom mess it up?
Anyone? Help plz

Carriers are enabling VoLTE device by device as well. So just because it is active on your N3, doesn't necessarily mean that it is live for the S5 yet.
Did you check the service mode menu to see if VoLTE is actively configured on your device? Did a forum search find any confirmations of S5 owners, with your carrier /city having active VoLTE?

s5 volte was made active on tmobile with there last base update to nf6. The alliance rom is based of tmobiles nf6 update. It is active in my city however my device is not the g900t but g900a just running the g900t rom. I know that the phones are extremely similar so i thought that volte should work. I did my searching and havent found anything helpful.

You may need to manually enable it, since you are using a 900A on TMB. And presumably not accepting TMB OTA updates.
Or alternately open a support ticket to confirm that your 900A is properly provisioned (active) for VoLTE.
You can search the forum (or my post history about 100 posts back) for details of how to find the setting in the service mode menu.

I got it to work; I posted the steps I took in this thread.

Convert Verizon S5 to full T-mobile S5

I have a Galaxy S5 that was on the Verizon network. I now have it on the T-Mobile network with a T-Mobile sim but I still have all the Verizon crud.
I have it rooted and the bootloader unlocked. Can I just flash any T-Mobile stock/rooted rom and have it be a full T-Mobile phone?
I've rooted several Sprint & T-Mobile phone but have never done a carrier change. Currently it is on Verizon PB1 Lollipop.
Thanks to all.

I'm in the same boat.

Did you ever get it working?
No. It wasn't my phone but a friends. His main compliant was that it did not do location searches correct and I fixed that by adding the T-Mobile info. He said he would just leave the rest alone.
doesnt verizon lock its bootloaders? the device is different, it's not a G900T
slight success
i have flashed my Verizon s5 to the T-mobile based Twisted lollipop ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo.../rom-twi5ted-lollipop-5-0-v1-deviant-t3037766
i used this process because i had a stock 6.1 Verizon ROM which was crap.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...t/rd-unlocking-galaxys-s5-bootloader-t3337909
jrkruse, guide is really helpful along with the link above.
However, i have problems with the lock screen not loading and when i turn the brightness all the way down my screen flickers with a yellow hue until i turn up the brightness. I am lead to believe that the screen flickering yellow is a hardware problem with the screen. Nevertheless, i am trying to move to a stock T-mobile Rom now even though i don't have a t-mobile kernel.
I have verizon s5 I'm attempting to do the same too... If only we could change the baseband from verizon to tmobile? I have cid 15 chip and have done the unlock. Could there be a way?

Flash Verizon S5 to T-Mobile
I was able to get it working! I have unlocked my Verizon S5 boot loader following the directions from the Verizon S5 page under XDA. I then flashed the sm-t900 pg2 firmware with TWRP. Everything seems working fine.

(solved) No WiFi calling or Volte with T-Mobile on V30S

So I bought V30S from B&H a few days ago. I flashed this H930-based ROM https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/development/rom-boombox-v30-t3765275 without backing up my original one (dumb, I know).
I'm on T-mobile and don't have WiFi calling and Volte settings. Am I correct in assuming that ROM is the culprit? Can somebody help me find the original Oreo ROM that the V30S would come with (don't see it on the LG website)?
Thanks for the help.

Yes, the rom is most likely the issue. Tmobile wifi calling and volte works fine on my v30s stock unrooted rom.
As for returning to the original rom, I haven't seen any kdz for the v30s (the us998 kdz might work since the v30s is us998r, but idk).
It's possible that you'd need to have branded phone for that. I have Samsung S6 on T-Mobile PL and i've got both VoLTE and VoWIFI working.
So..there is a risk that on phone you bough from the store might not work at all. Also make sure that your sim card has activated VOLTE and WIFI Calling.

I thought others have VoLTE and Wi-Fi calling on non-T-mobile branded bootloader unlocked and rooted V30/V30+? Maybe I'm confusing it with Sprint and Verizon.

I know the stock unlocked V30S from b&h supports tmobile wifi calling and volte, but I don't know if unlocking the bootloader and rooting it would make it not work with tmobile wifi calling and volte (I think it should still work since magisk should pass safetynet)
I have since restored to the us998 oreo stock ROM and WiFi calling along with VoLTE are back. For any US998 owners I would suggest to not flash 930h based ROMs.
I just play with my recently upgraded on EE UK contract V30 (not branded EU version), and when I perform factory reset with EE sim card I checked in hidden menu IMS settings and all values was there, so I finish other settings in hidden menu for Volte and Vowifi to get them enabled and nothing happen. I decide to reboot phone to see if that will get settings appear in menu but after reboot all configuration from IMS menu gone.
I did think about and I get my wife phone to play with (she got G6 with EE software and wifi calling works on her phone).
Basically what I found so far there is no any special apps for this, only some settings in few files need to be changed.
Files which need to be changed are : cust.prop, ims_conf.xml, mapcon_conf.xml, vo_config.xml.
I'm happy to play with this but can't do much at the moment as my phone is not rooted so I don't have permission to change these files on my phone.
Does anyone know any "root only" method for latest oreo update on V30?
