T-Mobile wifi calling work around - Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers

So I think most agree the device is great if you get past the green screen. But, the issue with no wifi calling was killing me. When at the gym there is no signal at all, Great wifi though. I downloaded and signed up for digits. BAM!! All good now, can text and call using WiFi.

Didn't think about digits, thanks. Maybe Tasker can help me enable Digits on specific SSIDs.

Not yet, there are only a couple of situations where I'll need it. Let me if you try it.

You, sir, are a GENIUS!! What a smart solution! Now I can send and receive calls, SMS and voicemails while in low signal areas... and I just thought about this... we can use digits while roaming internationally to avoid the hassle of using their local phone number system!
Just get a local sim card for data and as the OP said, BAM!! Call people with your local number. That's a great idea for friends and families traveling together. Everyone can simply call each other on their regular phone number, using the Digits app. :victory: :highfive:

Nice!!! Glad I could be of assistance.

Now I remember why I always return my EVO

Ever since my first evo phone I've had the same issue where messages come in late and in the wrong order... I've only encountered this problem with sense phones
Does any one else have this issue?

I've had that problem but on my evo 3d and my gnex. But the gnex was a lot worse, I returned that one fast cause I had other issues.

Pretty sure that is an issue with or between carriers

Not sure if this is a phone related issue you are experiencing?
I will get messages in different orders sometimes but that's just SMS in general.
Are you using Sprint # with Voice integration? I use that and have few issues.
Its SMS is general, Ive been with Verizon, AT&T and now Sprint and Ive had that happen from each one.

No its just plain old sms, I'm gonna try a third party app see if that works

No way it has anything to do with the phone. It just poles the towers for messages, it's up to the sms system to keep it all in order.

That's def not a reason to return your phone bc at times that will happen on all phones..no matter how "smart" they r
Your issue lies with Sprint, not this phone. It's happend on my original evo, the 3D this phone my wife's Samsung and also her LG and my nephews Epic.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Iv had this happen even w dumb phones its either poor signal on one end or carriers not communicating very well. Could also be a tower problem but not usually.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
I Think it happens most when someone goes over their 160 character limit and one message that got split into 2 gets sent before the other.
This happens to me at work.
I work on the first floor of a hospital, and typically I'm roaming while I'm in the building. On my og evo I never roamed in the hospital but now I do the second I walk in the building.
All my texts come in with the time stamp 5 hours on the future.

I had an issue with text message time stamps when I lose signal in the subway. When I get signal again, the timestamp would show 7 hours ahead of time on the text, but the order is still correct in the text message thread if I send a message after. I changed my time settings to get Automatic date & time and time zone, and it seems to have fixed the issue. I haven't gotten many text messages when I don't have service, so I can't confirm that this works 100%. But the text messages I have received when out of signal (around 4 or 5 messages) show the correct time stamp (the time the person sent the message, not the time I receive it when I get signal again) after I did this. I just tested this by turning on airplane mode, and I am still getting the correct time stamp. Hope this helps.

[Q] Questions about Liquid ICS

A few questions to clear up and just want to make sure I'm not the only one experiencing them...
1) I can't send SMS 99% of the time. SOMETIMES it sends... but rarely. I heard of an SMS Fix. Does anyone know about it?
2) Receiving SMS seems to be intermittent... Most of the time, it doesn't receive.
3) The 4G LTE bars don't show anymore than 2 bars weather I have full service where I am.
What radio are you on? The signal bars for 4g is a known issue that is being worked on

I had a problem with SMS and mms not sending once. Somehow my settings got screwed. I installed handcent and sent one thru it and it worked from then on. I use go SMS now tho. It works great. Point being whatever setting got messed up installing handcemt fixed it. Its worth a try
Yea hand cent will fix it sometimes. I had some issues sending them recently so I'm thinking maybe Verizon was having some issues because it started working on its own.

Not able to roam

Anyone know how I can get roaming to work? I'm rooted, s-off with 1.58 hboot. Whenever my phone switches to roaming, I can't make/recieve calls nor texts. However it shows 1x for data. Ive tried prl update, different roms and hard reset and none have solved the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
At least your phone switches to roaming. I have to manual switch it, automatic mode doesn't work. Have you tried switching to Roam only mode? Are you on ICS, I wonder if the ICS update Borked roaming or sprint is trying to pinch pennys by making it difficult.

Id rather have 2 manually switch 2 roam, just as long as it worked when in roaming. I dont have the option in the rom Im using now and yes I have an ics rom. Yeah I think sprint is trying 2 pinch pennys. Even their service is getting to suck. 3G hardly ever works and calls are hit and miss to make/recieve and constant fail txt

Glad to see Im not the only one having the problem. I could live without the data while roaming. Its the calls and txts that matter. If I try making a call, I get a verizon error msg unable to complete the call and to power off and back on and txt fail to send.

Will Note 3 support Wi-Fi calls?

Sure hope so and I hope the devs here get it to us faster than sprint ....... #stupidairrave
What would you use wifi calling for because you could just use google voice over wifi with the number you already have.
How do you do Google voice calls ?

Based on your "Stupid AirRave" comment, I'm guessing that are you looking for VOIP service for your N3?
Before you proceed, check the internet connection you plan to use to see if it's up to par.
http://voiptest.packet8.net/
If it passed then check out some options here:

I use grove IP with a google phone number. Works ands sounds better than sprint with or with out using my airwave.

FreedomPop is doing it on the Sprint network for cheap.
Probably but I doubt anyone can tell you for certain right now.

Wi-Fi Calling.

So, I'm trying to use the Wi-Fi calling but I can't pass after location selection... A message appear saying stop working. Obviously as you can see in the picture I have no signal in this place that I am right now.
Any help please?

I can understand that. Seeing as how we don't have root yet, I cannot tell you in-depth way around to reset app and wifi calling. Only way I can think is that app has faulty install or something obviously broke in running. For temp, have you restarted the device then tried? How good is location/satellite service (GPS only, battery saver)? If so, I would recommend (sadly) a factory reset and redo the wifi calling. If something still broke and error still persists, then maybe faulty hardware at this point. I had to factory reset first day I got it due to issue with brightness not sensing correctly. Everything works now. Ill keep looking at it but for now, only way is through restriction by phone not root yet.
That's the thing haha to have a solution before I have to FR the device. GPS is good in this area maybe is address...

I know, no root limits answers we can give obviously haha. Try address but I don't think that would cause FC in location query. The app should have just told you no good, not FC. That's why I can see this is frustrating haha. I have no FC and could not reproduce by wrong address and such. Ill keep looking.
Yeah that's exactly how I feel... Frustrated. FC every time when authenticating

Sorry to hear. That's all I got now since no root to edit other files. I'd just try another wifi if you can and see if it happens again. If so, no dice, sounds like FR to resolve only way.
I'll be doing some changes like moving from this area to see if it is the gps or the hardware. The last thing I'll do is the reset tho.

I am wondering the same thing. That notification drives me crazy. I seem to be having issues receiving some calls. For some reason the phone will ring in wifi calling and show who is calling but no one is there one I answer. The other person tells me it rings but then goes straight to voice mail.

It is real annoying when it happens. I shut it off for now because I didn't really need it on. I get pretty good signal but it seems to be in and out at work sometimes so I liked having it on. But it does me no good if almost every call I get does that. I assume they are working out the bugs in it.

WiFi calling works fine for me but not for texting. Ill have to retry to send the text a few times before it goes through. Also my mobile signal drops to no bars when WiFi is on, and returns when i turn it off.

Yup. I used wifi calling all day yesterday... It definitely helps when making a call.. But i lose all my bars and cannot receive calls. I confirmed this and had my wife try calling me with different configurations in different parts of the house. I've posted on the sprint forums to see what word I can get on this...
