Tmobile wifi calling? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Can Tmobile wifi calling be enabled on the GSM Gnex? If it is not natively available, I see that Tmo' just released the official ICS ROM for the Sensation and I am hoping the libs are the same and can be ported!

Anyone?

I wanted to bump this to see if anyone has new info. It has been a while, so my fingers are crossed!

no it doesn't work on the nexus I tried to port it but nothing unfortunately I only got it to work on my sensation with cm9 not the nexus tho

You'll never see T-Mobile WiFi calling on the GNex. Sorry.

If Tmobile ever sells the device we absolutely will see that functionality, however I am hoping someone else can figure out a way to get it working in the mean time.

T-Mobile won't ever sell the device. That's the main reason why. Add in the fact that it's extremely hard to port the functionality to non-T-Mobile handsets and I wouldn't ever expect WiFi calling on the GNex.

[Q] T-mobile Wifi Calling workaround???

Please forgive my ignorance....Is not the wifi-calling issue a matter of having a kernel that supports it and having the apk that works with 2.3.5??? There are other 2.3.5 roms that work with T-Mobile's wifi-calling. I am in no way a developer nor do I understand much about this. I am simply offering what may or may not have already been thought of.
It won't be just an apk once tmo releases it for SGS2.

when you say other roms are you by any chance talking about a rom for the gs2 or are you talking about other android tmo phones.
What I mean is that FOR NOW T-Mobile's wifi-calling is a matter of having the app and a kernal that supports it. There are other 2.3.5 roms that run the wifi calling app so it seems to me that it wouldn't be that hard to get it running on this phone. Who knows how long it will be until T-Mobile get this sim card wifi-calling going.

It's actually a bit more than just the apk and kernel. You also need a RIL (radio int. layer) that supports the handoff. RIL is not open source, which is why you don't see oodles of TMO phones with wifi calling.
If it was just apk+kernel, wouldn't every phone on TMO have wifi calling?
WiFi calling will be baked into the OS rather than just being an apk.

That doesn't help, it hurts. Now T-mobile has a premium phone with wifi calling and the other variants that have the old version. There is no need for them to RUSH to get it to us, the amaze people have just become T-mobiles "beta" testers as the alpha with the devs and employees is done. Expect delays and pushbacks now on our phone. Like I said before, and please T-mobile prove me wrong, Samsung is HORRIBLE with updates and we will be lucky to see this before the new year.
Ugh even my gf's g2x has wifi calling.
Did everyone here get the sim card? All three of us (family) got new sim cards when we got our new phones back in Oct. Supposedly required for the wifi calling.
Is this wifi calling they're rolling out supposed to be like UMA on BB? Where it will hand off between wifi and cell? Had the BB a long time ago and UMA was pretty slick. Had the original Galaxy S with wifi calling previously and voice was sketchy, delayed. But it was great for receiving texts in our crappy location.

[BOUNTY(?)] WiFi calling

Not really sure how to properly start a bounty thread, and direction is appreciated. Also don't know if this is even possible as I know porting wifi calling has proven to be nearly impossible on other devices, e.g. Nexus S. However, doesn't hurt to ask and I know it was done on Nexus One. Am using Galaxy Nexus on TMo, if that makes any difference.
Really, desperately need wifi calling for reception purposes in my apartment. Left TMo's Galaxy S2 for the Galaxy Nexus, love everything about it except lack of reception in home.
I know I can utilize Google Voice, but I need to be able to use my TMo number for both incoming and outgoing calls as well as texts, and not interested in porting my mobile number to Google.
I'm willing to fork over $100 for working wifi calling, if anyone is up to the challenge... if even possible...
Also, if anyone has alternate suggestion (not Google Voice, something that utilizes TMo mobile number, would be GREATLY appreciated!!
If this is possible that would be awesome. But I believe UMA is strictly a tmo thing

I use Groove IP app exclusively for calls, both over wifi and 3G/HSPA+. I am on the T-mobile $30/unlimited data/100min plan, so it is a must for me. It works great! and only a few bucks on the market. You will need a Google Voice account, and to set it to ring Google Talk, and maybe a little other setup, but it is pretty simple.

Verizon has a network extender that plugs into your home internet connection. It gives you a cell signal in your house and routes it over the internet back to Verizon. There is no monthly fee just a charge of the device. $250 i think. Maybe TMo has a similar device.

TMo does have a signal booster device, but it cannot be implemented in shared-wall structures (i.e. apartment buildings). Also, have many places, such as family homes, with lousy in-door coverage where wi-fi calling makes all the difference in the world.
i called tmo last month i fact complaining of a low signal in my town home. they sent me a signal booster for free.. from 1 bar downstairs to now 5 bars

Well I'm not scared of the signal booster police!
Unfortunately they check your address to verify. NO, I don't know if/how they can verify ALL shared wall structures, but for someone like me with "Apt. 5J" attached to my address it's not difficult. The issue is you need to register your address in case of emergency, as 911 cannot definitely and accurately determine your address if making a call using signal booster. So the issue is that if a neighbor picks up your signal without knowing and makes an emergency call, 911 may not be able to identify address. I know it's a long shot but it's not MY rule. And afaik, you cannot lock the signal to exclude others as you can with wifi.

Oh, and hall = haul when referring to carrying someone away. Just saying
I think the booster is tied to your cell account... so you might have a fun surprise.
The wifi calling was awesome but ultimately its property of T-Mobile and doesn't work on ICS. T-Mobile must update it before even attempting to porting it over.
CM team has used it a ton. Maybe they'll implement it in their CM9 rom. But I suspect they'll be busy just ironing out the bugs for a while.
Plus T-Mobile is doing away with wifi calling as we know it. I BELIEVE they're implementing a new system and probably going to charge for it.
Hopefully T-Mobile gets this working on some ICS (Nexus?) when it releases.

You're correct that wifi calling is very proprietary to T-Mobile and from what I understand (I'm not a developer whatsoever), is extremely difficult to impossible to port. I've been watching them try it on Nexus S since its release a year ago.
Unfortunately T-Mobile won't make it available to a non-branded TMo phone so unless Galaxy Nexus is released directly by TMo (which I doubt will happen), it won't happen even when they update it for their own ICS devices.
ALso, TMo did in fact change the implementation of their wifi calling- it's already been released on new devices such as TMo Galaxy S2 and HTC Amaze. However they are not and will not be charging for it (in fact they've again enabled free calls that don't use plan minutes when calling on wifi), it has just changed the way it's handled (better performance). Little to no noticeable change to end users.
Would be great if CM team get it working on Galaxy Nexus!
Good thoughts, thanks!

The problem on the Nexus S has nothing to do with the Wifi Calling app (which is actually made by Kineto), the problem is the radio interface layer (from Samsung) which is a binary blob. It does not support what the Wifi calling software requires to work (authentication calls mainly). Kineto blames Google for not "requesting" this feature from Samsung.
Getting the Kineto app up and working was really not that difficult. The only thing that needed to be changed was an audio library because the constructor was changed from Froyo to Gingerbread. That had nothing to do with the Kineto/Wifi calling software other than it used that constructor.

I believe there is also a hardware component to it now (SIM based).

They both can if they're on LTE or WiFi. The Viper doesn't have SV-DO so... those are the only options.

Well you can on the GN, if on LTE.
The reason the Viper can do it is because Qualcomm puts their LTE and 3G on one radio, and voice on another in some of their devices (Thunderbolt, Rezound, Viper).
The radios in the GN have voice and 3g on one radio, and LTE on another.

Actually, it has the same radios as the Thunderbolt and Rezound, so it is one of the few devices that can do it over 3G.

Thats interesting because its not listed as an SV-DO device (although apparently it is), which is usually synonymous with simultaneous voice/data on 3G.

I only bring it up cause I thought is was weird that a top end phone can't do it but a entry device can. I came from att iPhone to sprint epic then to the nexus s cause updates are quicker on the nexus s 4g. If your a smart phone user and say you don't surf and talk your a liar. Let me call you right back I'll look it up on the web.
I forgot to mention this is in Lancaster Ca no lte in the area at all both phones were on 3g and the rep was saying "that shouldn't work your probably on wifi" I told him its disabled. He's like o.

Like I said its only useful when tethering for me. When on Sprint it was quite annoying that every text or call dropped my tethered connection.
Talking and surfing both on the phone? Not very useful.
I've used talk and surf at the same time on occasion.
I'm on the phone and my wife asks me for an address and I have to look it up on google while still on the phone with her. I guess I could have called her back, but it is convenient regardless even though that has happened maybe twice. Definitely not a deal breaker though.
I wonder if its a ginger bread and ice cream sandwich issue cause all the phones that can do it are running on gb.

The Viper is an Simultaneous Voice and Data (SVDO) phone. FCC tests did back that up. Even the EVO 4G LTE can do SVDO. And I have needed that capability since I switched from at&t to Sprint last February. I'm glad that I'm getting the opportunity to have that feature again. And Sprint did say that the Viper will be receiving it's ICS update in the near future so I don't think that there are software limitations in Android that would cause problems with SVDO.

Nothing to do with ICS or GB. It has everything everything to do with the SoC that's used. Newer Snapdragons support SVDO.
Also, just to dispel another misconception, the GN is not a "top end phone." Rather, it's meant to be the baseline.

Sorry to revive this thread, but is anyone working on this by any chance? It's been about a year or more since Sprint announced Wi-Fi calling and there is still nothing for the G2...
I think this would complete my wish list for my G2, still haven't found a ROM with this feature yet.

The only thing i'm disappointed with is that Fido did not provision it for video calling. I spoke to the tech department and was told Google will be rolling out an update to fix that and RCS because the phone is not reading what features the plan has.
Then I was told that video calling over the network is not capable because the phone comes preloaded with DUO which it does not. So I don't know what to believe but I would like for them to provision it for the video calling so I don't have to use my data.
I unlocked and rooted mine on Telus.
