I'm running gb27 touched by a sgsiv room with the source built kernel. When I am running the tether app I am unable to receive incoming calls and I receive (some of) the texts sometimes hours after I turn the tether app off. I have another identical phone on my account running the same setup and have confirmed it has the same issue. Anyone else having the same issue? I'm not sure this isn't a problem on sprints side but being I don't pay for tether I can't really ask their help. Ideas?

It's a known issue with wifi tether pre10 and pre11. Try clearing the app data and see if that helps.
You can also spend some time here.

The guys that make the. Wifi software do very well. However, they have no control over any other mods you have done. So just keep trying to make it work. Alternatively, you can pay Sprint $30 a month and have it work fine all the time.

WIFI calling enabled on SG2 won't receive calls
I've been flashing Roms for about three years now. I travel over seas quiet a bit and wifi calling is have been very helpful. But lately I've been having problems when I'm on any ICS roms. I don't know if it's just me, because looks like nobody else is having same issue, but I can't receive phone calls when wifi calling is enabled. It goes strait to voice messaging. I can make phone calls, but can't receive them. I have no problems with WIFI calling when running Gingerbread roms. Please help!
Might wanna take it up to tmobile if you confident you are following the ROM installing procedure.
How about go back to GB and see if you still have the issue

Thanks for the reply!
That's the thing, WIFI-calling is working just fine on ANY of GB ROMs (I'm running Darkside Digital Warfare v2.7 now). It's when I'm on ICS ROMs and WIFI-Calling is active incoming calls not going through, they are going to voice mail without one ring from the caller (it's like phone is off). But I can make phone calls no problem. And trust me I've tried all the new ICS ROMs that came out lately. And I do follow installing instructions very carefully.
Do you have the beats audio mod installed? I figured out with a few other people that it does cause an incoming call issue. And i know that wi fi calling is hit or miss on ICS
oh man. i just realized im having the same problem. i just didnt think anyone was calling me.
I called T-Mobile about this today, because none of my phones (S2, Blaze, Double play) would receive calls over WiFi. Ever since I called it's been working. Maybe it was a system update on the T-Mobile end?

So wifi tether isnt working for me and i went to the toggle for blazer 1.7 and pressed hotspot and it took me to the sprint hotspot, just wanted to know if i will be charged? shouldnt it of come with a " check to agree to terms" or something? or is the sprint hotspot hacked for blazer 1.7 ics domination?

you won't be charged.word on the street is if you just got the phone it will work for you for a while.then it will stop. they will not just add tha charge on. instead you will get a failure message. It will say something like registration error give it some time. unless of course they found a hack and included it w/ blazer but as far as I know they have not found a hotspot hack yet
isnt thier a hack though?

I assume your using this?
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
If so make sure device profile is samsung galaxy nexus CDMA or gsm dont matter.
No encryption. And uncheck the box at the bottom that says disable wake lock. Should work for ya
I was using wifi tether on my gs3 and had little luck getting it to work well. I'm on Blazer 1.6 currently.
Even foxfi wouldn't work.
The stock app worked for a few days, but Sprint gives it to you for free to get you to like it, then turns it off.
But today I searched for wifi tether in the play store (eventhough it was already installed on my phone) and noticed there was an available update. I updated and now there is an option for galaxy s3 in the device profile. It wouldn't work until I checked the box that says "wifi driver reload". Now it is finally working as well as it did on my evo 4g!
CM10 appears to be the only rom that actually solves the problem by unlocking the native sprint hotspot app.. all other roms still require a third party app and/or work around.
Yeah, tft is right. I'm on Blazer 1.7 and have to use an app called WiFi Tether but works fine.
See qbking66's videos on YouTube on how to do it, think that's where I found out how to do it.

There's a new version 3.2 beta 1 with Galaxy S3 Support. I also select Routing Fix(dont know what it is but works).
Got my M8 the other day and noticed my MMS through Hangouts wasnt working while I had WIFI on, I turned of WIFI and MMS worked right away. I did some searching and found that people from verizon and att also having this issue but there was no solution. Thought I would post this here to see if anyone else is having this issue and if there is a fix. Never had this issue on M7.

That's really weird, i'm on Wifi right now and I just sent a MMS to my other phone and it sent just fine.... Also, i'm using Hangouts....
I think several phones and carriers have been having issues with Hangouts for the last week or so..

I have even tried stock messaging app as well, same issue, if my wifi is on and try to send/receive mms the 4g/lte icon comes on but just sits there trying to download, if i turn wifi completely off it comes right through
that is weird..I assume you have rebooted the phone a few times..
maybe time to call tech support, and see if your phone is defective?

I wasn't able to receive MMS while on wifi with hangouts or hoverchat unless I opened the stock messaging app. I messed with wifi and mobile priorities and APN setting and no luck so I'm using the stock app for now.
If you're using WiFi calling you can't send and receive MMS unless it's the stock app.

I'm experiencing the same issue. I actually called T-Mobile tech support and they walked me through deleting all my SMS messages in the hangouts app and then making the native app the default messaging app again. Then they wanted me to send a test MMS message to myself (using the native messaging app) and it worked. So i went back to using hangouts again and it worked for a day, and now it stopped working again. sounds like a bug in the HTC software to me.
I've always had this issue. You can help it out a bit by going into the wifi settings and setting it to be able to auto switch from wifi back to your 4G connection. Still doesn't always work. I don't send MMS often though so its not a big deal to me. Its the only thing that doesn't work for me. It does the same thing for me in the normal messaging app too. I turn wifi off and it goes though just fine. My M8 is only a few days old but most of my issues came from that same issue on my Note 3.
I can't send mms with hangouts on wifi either.
Is there a way to report this issue to HTC?

How did I never see this when I had the Note 3. It was soooooooooooo annoying. I always disabled my wifi and get it then go back to wifi. I just tested this and it works. I don't do very many MMS messages but when I get one I know it'll download correctly.

i was having the same issue ill give this a try thanks.
I'm going to have to retract my previous statement where I said it works. Yes, it does work but you have to disable wifi calling for it to work. I guess I'll have to deal with disabling wifi when I send/receieve MMS because wifi calling is a must for me.
I'd like to see TMobile fix this to work with wifi calling enabled too.
Has anyone been having delayed text messages being sent and received since the update? My wife has been having this issue with her M8. It's been intermittent but it happens almost every day to her.

I have also been having this issue. Sometimes a text message takes an hour or more for me to receive it or my recipient to receive it, other times I'll receive up to 4 of the same message in quick succession. It mostly happens when I have Wi-Fi calling enabled, as text messages don't seem to play well with it. For some reason, it completely disables the cellular radio instead of working in conjunction with it. Drives me crazy.
My wife's phone has wifi calling enabled but had cellular as the preferred connection method, so it would only switch to wifi calling if there was absolutely no signal. So I don't think in her case wifi calling was the issue. I completely turned it off just in case tho. I'm having her try another messaging app just to see (Google Messenger vs. HTC stock), but I don't think that's the problem.

Also remember that the only app that can send mms messages over wifi calling is the delivered one that comes with the phone. Any 3rd party apps (like handcent, chompsms, etc) will not be able to send mms messages over wifi calling.
Hi, I had the same problem plus mms would be sent nor downloaded. I was using the messenger google app though, switched back to stock message app and it resolved the issue

I called T-Mobile and they had me clear the cache from the Messaging app, and then reset the APNs back to default. So far so good... Everything started working.

I don't think she's had any issues with wifi but i'm not really sure. I know yesterday I was trying to back up her phone preparing to wipe it and I saw the wifi would go out then come back on. I was about 10 feet from the router and everything else on wifi was holding steady except for the phone. Is that similar to the issues you were having?

My issue was that the wifi would connect and then drop then connect. Also some wifi AP, it would work great. To me it was just inconsistent, so I figured in for a penny in for a pound and just wiped the phone. That worked for me, but it if didn't I was planning on re-installing TWRP and some custom ROM as my bootloader was unlocked (but I was still s-on).

Any further solutions to this problem of intermittent delayed text messages? I now have 5.1.1, and use Hangouts. I also sometimes don't get calls either, it's like the cell antenna just turns off.
From what I remember a hard reset fixed the problem for my wife's phone.
