[Q] How to install wifi calling in cm6? - myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have previously used the Haxpresso ROM to make wifi calls because i get absolutely zero service where i live. I noticed the cm7 has wifi calling. But cm7's wifi still doesnt work for me even after RC4 and flashing the new radio. Bascially, i want a cyanogen rom with wifi calling. if you can help me install it in cm6 or get a permanent wifi fix for cm7, i will worship the ground you walk on. Please, i hate stock espresso. i want some CM goodness!

I haven't heard any news of people getting Wifi Calling to work with CM6.
Maybe you wanna just keep trying different Nightly's? Also, I didn't think my wifi was working either, but I restarted my phone with wifi on and after... well I think a while it started to pick up on networks.

do the wifi .lib files adapt over time? like, with multiple reboots, would the wifi problem eventually fix itself?

[Q] WiFi Calling.

Can Someone extract the Wifi Calling apk so i can use it with CM 6.1 on the G2? When i Flashed over, I lost Wifi Calling..
You're going to need kineto_gan.ko as well as the APK, I had them copied over to CM6.1 when I installed it.
Did you make a nandroid backup before flashing? Just restore, grab the two files you need then restore back to CM6.1 and copy them in? Posting them here would make them Warez and they'll get pulled.
Does your phone detect your mobile number correctly? Mine never did. Caused a few "irregularities".
Wifi calling seemed to work though.
Quick question... when the wifi calling app keeps force closing, what does that usually mean? It's still connected to the network because of the other wifi bars, but the icon in the left hand corner is gone.

[Q] Is Wifi Calling Missing in CM7 on purpose?

I've done several Google searches on this topic as well as focused searches on the CM and XDA forums; I figured it was time to just ask the question myself.
So I noticed that Wifi Calling started missing in in the CM7 nightlies sometime after #21. I ran across someone from the CM forums who saw theirs returned after his upgrade from #28->#30 (which I did not see on mine even after a full wipe).
Is there a setting or condition on my phone that prevents me from seeing/activating this feature?
Thanks in advance,
Reg
I've been running CM7 since build number 0 and now I'm on build 31, I have flash every nightly released and have always had wifi calling on every single build.

So I did a clean install of #21, which had wifi calling, but when I upgraded to 22, it was gone. Might anyone else know what I can do to install?
Thanks,
When you are upgrading, what are you wiping? You only need to wipe cache.

I've tried multiple things: cache wipes, no wipes, "clean" installs, manually formatting each mount point. None of that matters for me. Wifi calling only shows up in builds up-to-and-including 21; after that, it just vanishes.
Thanks for trying though, dude.
As i installed the CM 7.0.0-RC1 with Nightly version 2. and i found the same thing means WIFI is not working but when i press the power button and found the option REBOOT and select this option and then again i select the option REBOOT, Phone rebooted and then turn on wifi and it started working. so all you have to do is to Reboot the phone as i said. you will hopefully find your WIFI option working.
as i had the same.

Yes, it is well known that a first reboot is required to get WiFi working on CM7 right now. OP's question, however, is about the missing WiFi calling application.
OP, that's very interesting that it won't show up. So if you do a clean full wipe and install of something like RC1 or higher, you still don't get WiFi calling? Mine has been in there on every build... hmm..
I did'nt Wipe the Cache , I did the reset factory settings option. and install the CM7.0.0-RC1 with nightly version 2. and after done i found the wifi option is not working.
as i told when i rebooted the phone and i found the wifi option working.
Do you have a g2 or a desire z? I am looking at the changelog right now and it says that wifi calling is only installed on the g2. I'm assuming that you have a g2 since you are asking about it, but just throwing my 2 cents.
Maybe the rom is thinking that you are running a Z instead of a G2. Idk. It might help. More than likely not, but it's worth saying IMO.

I know what you are saying . but i tried everything after that i said so that wifi calling is working. as you find the WIFI connection then go the wifi calling app and then enable it and connect to tmobile network so that you can use it. but if you are in such area where Tmobile network's service is bad then might there be a chances to have no connection with wifi calling even if you have connected to wifi network (Internet)

now i am store working and i have a wifi at my job too. so i connect there carefully once again and checked everything and when i open to the wifi calling app and connect to T-Mobile Network for wifi calling i see after connecting to Tmobile via wifi radio signals turn to zero and when i disconnect it singals first had a 'x' on it and then they turn green. so make sure you are using the tmobile network then you will be able to use wifi option.

wifi problem 2.3.3

Regards
I have a problem with wifi after I put update on 2.3.3
whether it can solve this problem with wifi.
I always shoot and it turns the wifi network.
be a good wifi network signal then disappears
Same problem here
This is a very serious problem. Get ur act together HTC, this is just unacceptable!
Are you rooted? HTC raised the signal strength at which the connection would be dropped, there is a fix if you are rooted, otheewise you are stucm and will have to wait for HTC to correct this.
Sent from my Desire HD
Have you tried another radio? of course be careful if you do change it
same issue, though htc say that its a "new feature" to provide a seamless mobile broadband experience by automatically chosing the strongest signal. whatever you say htc
i just disable mobile data at home, so it cant jump back to 3g and stays on wifi. the annoying thing with this is that i forget to enable mobile data when leaving the house.
i hope they sort it out, and that this new feature isn't rolled out across their other products
I am having the same problem. At work, my wifi connection is weak, but was always functional. Now, I cannot connect to my work wifi. On top of that, my battery drains twice as fast on my phone, and I'm thinking that it's due to the phone always scanning and trying to connect to the wifi signal. If it's true that HTC changed the level at which the wifi signal is dropped, this was a terrible decision.

I think this may answer/point to the problem I'm having since installing the Gingerbread RUU. I use the quick settings app from the market and pre-gingerbread it used to switch between wi-fi/mobile pretty seemlessly, turning off the unused option. Now if there's no wi-fi connection that option seems to stay on (probably searching) while it's connected to mobile data. As above, my battery is draining like a sieve.

Same problem for me with Original Rom.
so i tried the Revoloution HD 5.1.4 and same problem again!
Hi guys until HTC release an OTA fix (that's if they do) the only way to resolve this is to root and then try some different ROM and radio combinations until you find one that works for you.
I find the ROM and radio from my signature work really well on WiFi but if you are going to do this make sure and root, gain S-OFF and ENG S-OFF. Also make sure you have the correct RIL for the ROM and radio that you are using
There are lots of threads on the dev section that guide you through this.
Wifi connecting
I have a similar problem with wifi connection. Only it doesn't disconnect during a connection but when establishing a wifi connection it takes much longer than it used to on Froyo. Anyone else noticed this?
i have problem too with wifi
I really hope htc has stopped the updates and resumes with a new build with the wifi problem fixed
The issue is with the Gingerbread Sense ROMs.

WiFi problems with routers
Hi there,
Same problem here. Both my WiFi router and phone say signal and reception quality are perfect and connection it stable, but data won't flow.
I'm having this problem with my Speedtouch (WEP key) router at home, whereas a Sitecom router at the office works fine (WPA etc. key).
Tried some work arounds, without success
Regards
***EDIT***
I can add that it has nothing to do with the reported threshold of -88dB signal strength. As I checked that with the *#*#4636#*#* option and both higher and lower values of the WiFi reception don't make any difference. The problem persists.
***EDIT v2***
The suggestion posted elsewhere to change from WEP to WPA didn't work out either
***EDIT v3***
Reverted back to ARHD 3.7 and WiFi is running fine again .
Hope some fix will be found soon!
Regards,
Is there any solution. I am trying to downgrade the radio but no chance.
If I use LeeDroid or Revolution will this same problem be there?

[Q] T-Mobile US Wifi Calling issues (2.2.1)

Has anyone else had issues using WiFi calling after applying the OTS 2.2.1 update?
Trying to make a WiFi call seems to be utilizing almost all of the phone's resources and making it hang for a long period of time. Ending the call takes forever, and neither the called party nor the calling party can hear each other at all.
This is acting up regardless of which WiFi network I'm connected to, etc.
I'm downgrading to 2.1 again to see if it still works, but wondered if anyone else ran into this issue.
Thanks
d3po
Actually, my wifi calling is much improved since 2.2.1. I have not done a factory reset since the upgrade, maybe you have?
I figured out that the root of the issue seems to be either Milestone OC or SetCPU. I uninstalled them and it's been fine.
I'll see which one is the culprit and post again.
Did you ever figure which was at fault as my wifi calling has degraded.
Thanks
My wifi calling has always been poor. There's a consistent 3-4 second lag in voice. Makes taking important calls very difficult. No 3G in my town, and I barely have 1 bar in my house, so I gotta use wifi.

[Q] portable wifi hotspot disables 3G ?

had the phone over a year now, never had an issue before.
As soon as you turn on the portable wifi hotspot, i loose the 3g/h symbol from the top of the screen and from that no data conectivity?
and as sopon as you turn the wifi hotspot off, it regains an internet conection
Any ideas, ive not installed any apps recently, as far as i can remember?
Do you get an internet connection when another device connects to your phone's wifi hotspot.
If you are able to connect, then it must be working, as it's the 3G signal that the phone uses to connect the wifi to the internet. It might remove the icon, but if you can connect then it's fine.
nope, can conect my ipad to the DHDs hotspot but no internet.
the same for when i turn the hotspot on, cant brouse anything on the phone as no data conection
still not sorted this, anyone else got a aide or something to sort this?
First post (longtime lurker)
I've got the same problem here although this has only started happening in the last couple of days. The phone's data connection is fine until you enable the wifi hotspot at which point the connection is dropped to the phone, connecting any devices to the phone is fine, they get an IP address and can ping the phone directly, but beyond the phone there's nothing.
Rebooting the phone does not help.
The only app I've installed recently is Google Shopper.
Out of curiosity Fil what ROM are you using? I'm on RCMix3d Runny 3.0 which is based on Android 2.3.5 and Sense 3.5. I'm looking at switching to an ICS build pretty soon.
It also looks like we're on the same network although I think that's just coincidence.
yep sounds exactly the same issue,
as for rom, still on t-mobiles original 2.50.110.5 Adroid 2.3.3
was thinking of flashing something custom to see if it solved the problem
I've just flashed IceColdSandwich today at work (it's been a slow day!) and you'll be pleased to know that wireless tethering is working again. I'm on the train home as I type this. It's possibly something in the 2.3 image? I can't really say since we both had different ROMs (mine was a Sensation port). It could just be a bad bit of code in the gingerbread OS that produces this bug on rare occasions.
It may have something to do with the fact that T-Mobile and Orange allow you to roam on eachother's networks. Do you have roaming enabled?
To be honest I'm just stabbing wildly at possible causes here and a flash fixed it anyway. I went ICS but I don't think you'd have to go that extreme but flashing a new ROM overwrites whatever it is that caused this in the first place.
I'm just hoping it's fixed in ICS and won't happen again!
cheers, enabled data roaming, and it now works!
Since the issue, my batterys turned to crap! guessing thats the cause constantly jumping networks, and also data speeds have been very poor lately, was ok when just t-mobile, but orange is poor!
Off to the t-mobile foeums to see if its just me, or others!
