[Q] ROM that allows Phone Network Selection? - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

I am currently using JellyBam, as it allows one to select a mobile network operator ( Settings>Wireless & Networks>More> Mobile Network Settings ) but it mobile hot spot and bluetooth tethering don't work.
Does anyone know of any other ROMS that allow one to select the phone network operator? On stock, and the other ROMs I've look at, it is greyed out...
thanks,
jf

You won't find it on any of the AT&T based ROMs.

When you say "AT&T based" are you referring to touchjiz or ANY rom on the AT&T S3. Just to clarify for anyone who may be reading this.

Any ROM that runs on the AT&T GS3, is OK with me!
And I have found one so far, so its obviously not 'won't find any.'
thanks.

JellyBam is not based on the AT&T stock ROM. It is based on AOKP and CyanogenMod.
I have not tested enough ROMs to be a 100% sure, but I think AT&T disables this option in its stock ROM. If so, you probably won't find any AT&T-based ROM with this capability.
But you might want to look at Canadian-based ROMs (those that as Rogers-based, Telus-based or Bell-based). The mobile network operator setting isn't grayed out on my Rogers stock ROM (but I have a Canadian phone, this may or may not have something to do with that). Examples of ROMs you may want to try that are Touchwiz-based but not based on stock AT&T:
- Dandroid
- i747z
- I747MVLDLK4_DJJOHNNYBLAZE_MODV1
- Bertiespeed

[DEV][MOD][JB] T-Mobile Wi-fi Calling

A while ago, I downloaded a nandroid someone posted from their T-Mobile Galaxy Note II to see if I could pick it apart for wi-fi calling, but I don't use it so I can't really test it and I lost interest. Now, I've packaged up the Wifi Calling app with all of the libs it came with and added in the build.prop from the zip. It might be a lot more than what is needed, but I don't want to have to keep uploading bits and pieces. If you think you have an idea of what you're doing and want to try it out, go for it. I don't really know much about wi-fi calling at all so unless you have some sort of logcat, I'll be of little to no use to you at all. I guess that's about it...
You can use the ics wi-fi calling package to help you out by possibly using it as a reference/using parts/etc.
FOUND HERE
And here is what I've extracted from that 1GB+ package.
CLICK ME
Let us know what you find and good luck
If you feel you might need more files from the original nandroid just let me know.
Nice!

Hm... by the looks of it, it would seem that these are only settings for Wi-Fi calling. So it would seem that you'd have to mod the settings apk to have the option for WiFi calling settings. :/ I'll look into elgins (CM10) source sometime to see if I can add it in. If I can at least get the app starting somewhere, it will be easier for everyone else to debug/fix it up. If anyone has messed with the note 2 and can confirm that WiFi calling is accessed via settings and not launcher (app) that would be helpful as well.

This is gr8 news !Hopefiully someone can get going on this ,it can benefit not just the Glacier,but other devices as well that already have a fully working JB minus wifi calling.
From what I have seen and read on my HTC One S it is built into the frame work on JB so way above what I know good luck.
im gonna look into this and see what i can do

I'm thinking the setting could be added in way that is similar to this:
https://github.com/SyNtheticNightma...mmit/bfac7c05daab9f6294f7419ea6173c4a1c569092
Though I don't know the exact name of the package for the wi-fi calling settings... I'd need to decompile it to find that out (unless you know another way, I'm not too familiar with apks). I could also try whipping up an icon for this if you need one.

Sorry for a late reply (haven't had the T-Mobile Galaxy Note 2 (SGH-T889) so long...
Wifi Calling settings are located under Settings / More settings /
And includes two items: Wi-Fi Calling (this is to enable/disable with a check box), and, Wi-Fi Calling Settings (This offers Connection Preferences [Wi-Fi Preferred / Wi-Fi Only / Cellular Preferred}, and, Help)
For reference, the above menu structure/selections are based on Stock F/W 4.1.1, Build Number JRO03C.T889UVALL4
Is this still a work in progress or has it died?
it sure died.. adding wifi calling to JB has been a task for over a year..no dev has been able ot make this work...so sad.

Wifi calling discovery

Ive been looking around and researching on how to get wifi calling on AOSP roms. I have made what I believe to be a big discovery. T-mobile now uses IMS for newer android phones, which is UMA/sip etc. I decompiled the ims-service.apk from the stock DLJA rom. I found an XML that contains the settings to use the service! You can get the IMS installer from here http://code.google.com/p/the-ims-open-source-project-for-android/
I put the settings into the app and tried connecting but it came up with ER05, invalid SIM card. I googled that and it I get leads to saying that the sim isn't authenticated for WIFI calling. I know that it is, because it works fine on stock roms. I've also attached a logcat of me attempting to connect. I've attempted to change some of the info of the strings to reflect my personal phone number but that did not change anything.

So I took part in a survey this morning sent from T-Mobile. They had some very interesting questions pertaining to Wi-Fi Calling and AOSP ROMS, specifically if I was running on a rooted device, and if I was able to get Wi-Fi calling enabled on whatever ROM I was using. They had other questions about Wi-Fi Calling and how much I would use it, etc...Apparently they're recognizing the community and are starting to ask the right questions. I like this line of thinking!

Let us not assume they are asking these questions to try and help us.. Everything T-Mobile has ever demonstrated toward the hacking community was finding ways to prevent or patch and progress made.. like they're going to assist us with tethering or wifi calling on custom ROMs.. not going to happen.. They are probably asking so they can investigate how it is working on an AOSP ROM and patch the exploit..

Wifi calling is no longer an apk for JB. It is baked into the framework. TW is the only way currently available to use T-MO wifi calling on our device. I haven't heard of any JB aosp type rom on any device being able to take advantage of T-MO wifi calling.

Couldn't tell if you were trolling. People with low post counts calling people out for no reason in forums where they haven't made any contributions is always suspect.
You won't find a *built from source* AOSP rom that includes WiFi calling. The community doesn't seem willing at the present to take on the herculean task of implementation for this niche (not to say unimportant) feature. RoI value isn't there. The old WiFi calling app available a recently as ICS just doesn't work on JB and good people have given up on implementing it.
The best you can hope for right now is a port of a device that comes from mobile supplied device equipped with an AOSP style stock software that has the feature included. The Nexus series excluded (Google isn't keen on letting carriers mess with Experience devices anymore). If an implementation were to happen I think it'll be from the Nexus community or another device of that ilk.
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
Meh.
Glad someone made this post. I was thinking of switching to T-Mobile. But without Wifi calling...no thanks. Not even sure if I could get signal in my apartment. Plus their horrible coverage...oh well. Really wanted WiFi calling.
Maybe I'll have to look into a proper VOIP instead of google voice. (Horrible to use over WiFi.)
If you really need WiFi calling, stock ROM always comes with it built-in.
I always use stock ROM with a few mod, and I'm happy with that.
I found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2302313 and https://github.com/FennyFatal/the-ims-open-source-project-for-android
I'm not sure what either of those are, but any insight would be greatly appreciated.

If you flashed the Stock T-Mobile ROM, and have a T-Mo SIM, you should have the setting - there isn't an "app".
Go to Settings > Connections > More networks > Wi-Fi Calling Settings.
You should be able to turn it on or off and then set your preferences.
Remember it has to be a Stock ROM, none of the non-Stock ROMs support Wi-Fi calling.

Sorry for my spreading of misinformation. I thought I had read that it was only Stock. Is it that the ROM must be TouchWiz based? Is that the issue - so no AOSP, CM nor GPE?
As to the APK, I thought he was asking about an APP he had to run.
Again, sorry, and thanks for the correction.

I think what it is is that T-Mobile had the feature baked into whatever custom interface the phone manufacturer was using. With the HTC phone, it was probably baked into Sense. In the case of Samsung phones, they were baked into TouchWiz. Recently, the ability was added to iOS 8, adding recent iPhones to the capable list.
I may be wrong, but I think it was a way to discourage tinkering because they were trying to encourage people to take up expensive flagship phones. If WiFi Calling could be plastered to just any old GSM phone, the more expensive phones lose their appeal.

New Rom?

Hey guys I have the Tmobile variant of the m8. I want to try the roms posted in this section but i am wondering if it is possible to add the wifi calling to those roms as i have a dead zone at my house.

Its possible, but I think its more complicated than installing the APK.
A few custom ROMs have a T-Mob option that includes WiFi calling (which is why I say it must be possible), so you might opt for one of those.

For further info on @redpoint73's response, as long as you are running ROMs based on the same firmware as T-Mo's latest version, the wifi calling should be implemented.
If you are trying to run ROMs based on newer firmware, or are using a ported version of the new Sense, wifi calling will not work. T-Mo doesn't have anything compatible with it.
