I'm currently roaming abroad and unable to use ##rtn# to get back wifi calling provisioned on my G3. Can someone share their sprintWificalling.apk from /system/priv-app folder?
My WiFi calling is not in priv-app. Also there are scattered apps that seem to be related to WiFi calling. I don't think that one apk is all you need.
sent from my LG G3
So, I see Wi-Fi calling and VoLTE is available in PA. I have the Verizon G3 (Obviously) and use T-Mobile as my carrier. Is it possible that the Wi-Fi calling would work for me since I'm on T-Mobile? Is it easy to merge? Does the modem have to be reworked or anything?
I've been very happily using my Verizon prepaid Moto E with the trick to unlock usage of the GSM radio found elsewhere on this forum. The only thing I can't seem to figure out, is how to make the built-in tethering function work. Since I can't root this device (VZ version hasn't managed to get an unlocked bootloader, it seems), I'm stuck using the built in functionality. I tried adding "dun" to the APN type settings, but that didn't work.
Activating the hotspot allows other devices to connect, but they can't "see" the internet. I've heard that this SIM I'm using (freedompop) can be configured to work in phones like the BLU R1 by just adding DUN to the apn type string, but it seems to make no difference on here. I can't confirm if the SIM works with tethering because I don't have access to another unlocked phone at the moment. Can someone help me verify if the problem is with the phone or the freedompop service?
Hello,
I purchased a S9+ from Samsung for the ATT network. I just had my ATT account suspended due to a military move and had the phone unlocked. I just got TMobile service, the unlock worked fine, I still see the ATT stuff when it's booting and I know that's firmware related, but when I try to enable wifi calling, it let's me turn the slider to on, but as soon as I do, it closes the page and the calling option is still greyed out. Any suggestions, I am going to need this feature overseas.
I think wifi calling only works on the phone's network. If you change networks it stops working.
Is there a way to get unlimited hotspot on the Tmobile Pixel 6? I know the old method was to add dun to the apn settingsof older phones but not sure what works now with Android 12 and the Pixel 6. Could anyone post or link to a guide or steer me in the right direction?

I don't think there is a guide as it's likely changing the APN still works. However, be careful with tethering or hotspot use as the carriers do monitor their traffic and can tell if you are doing either.
Look into PdaNet+
3rd party app, but works great. Has a feature called Hide Tether Usage too, not sure how reliable that is though.
If your are rooted look for vpn hotspot that's the best way to tether without restrictions, if you're not rooted you can use pdanet as someone has mention previously
I have been tethering on A12 for a long time using a personal method of mine since A10 on the carrier ATT.
Background: By default i have an unlimited texting calling and unlimited data plan with ATT but no hotspot allowed at all within the plan. I wanted to hotspot for video game reasons. Now for my method
My method uses a combination of methods I have found through various threads. It also has a few pre requisites like being able to unlock your BL, root and being able to change your APN/add a new APN.
First you have to be rooted and use the module magiskhidepropsconfig and add a prop. You can Google search the module to find it on GitHub. The prop you need to add is "net.tethering.noprovisioning" using a terminal and set that prop to true. This prop adds the ability for you to tether without the device reporting it as tethering directly.
Next you need to screenshot your entire DEFAULT APN as you need to copy the original one and add that same EXACT SAME APN but with ONE minor change. The change being under "APN TYPE" you need to add "DUN", no spaces in all caps at the end. If you try adding 'dun' in lowercase, this WILL NOT WORK and will NOT let you add it.
This is because "dun" is the code for tethering under the 'APN type' and that will allow your device to tether making your device think you have your "carrier's permission" to tether. This also will allow you tether for long periods of time without it shutting off automatically.
After that you're done and should be able to tether, I'll attach to screenshots, one as proof and one of the 'APN type' change. This method also survives OTA's.

A couple of questions:
-- Is this method the same regardless of carrier? (I have Verizon)
-- I usually do a full flash of the monthly updates without wiping, will it survive that method rather than OTA?
Changing APN setting works adding dun. Sprint/tmobile added an APN called pam, it was doing the monitoring so I had to delete it completely and push a new APN and preferred APN using adb root and some commands.
