[Q] Support for SMS over IMS - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hello all,
I'm trying to force my SMS messages over Verizon's IMS service but with no luck. Normally, the an SMS is sent using the CDMA network. I tried setting the 'LTE Only' option in the hidden menu (*#*#4636#*#*), but even with that enabled the SMS fails to send and the logcat shows the phone trying to acces the disconnected CDMA network. I've enabled the 'SMS over IMS' option within this menu as well.
I know that with LTE there are two options for SMS. One is to send through LTE NAS signalling (SG LTE), but this doesn't seem to be implemented by Verizon or the phone since it resorts back to sending over CDMA. The second is SMS over IMS which is what I'm interested in, but through my initial investigation it doesn't seem like the Galaxy Nexus supports this.
Any thoughts or knowledge in the matter?
Thanks

[Q] Call Forwarding help on Android FRX07.1

I'm running Android FXR07.1 on my HTC TP2 on the ATT GSM network. I was toying with some ideas about how best to use Google Voice. I went into the GSM call settings page and then into Call Forwarding. I tried to set Always Forward to my google voice #. Instead of putting my number there, it only showed a block character. Not only is the forwarding not working, but also I cannot now unforward my calls. When I try to disable, I get this message:
Call settings error.
"Your carrier does not support disabling call-forwarding when your phone is unreachable"​
Any ideas on how to get this issue fixed?
I don't really have a clean solution.
But if your phone is out of network due to a bug, why don't you just restart on Winmo to reverse the situation?
It should work, as the call forwarding is an operator setting, no matter where you want to forward.
Thanks for the suggestion. I was able to resolve this. I actually found something online that was a code to disable all call forwarding. I can't find it now, but I think it was ##0040#...or something very similar. It still did nothing. Then I booted to WinMo and couldn't even find a cal forwarding option. I booted into the FRX07 build that I also had on my SD card and it still showed forwarding there. But in FRX07 I was able to disable the settings properly. Once I did that, I booted back into FRX07.1 and it was properly disabled there too.

[Q] There are no internet calling accounts - T-Mo Wifi Calling

it looks like the No Internet Calling Account issue is back on the M8. I am able to place calls if I dial the number fine via Wi-Fi calling, however when attempting to place a call from a contact card it gives the "There are no Internet Calling Accounts" error.
Incoming calls go straight to VM, SMS and MMS work.
Changing the settings from "Wi-Fi Preferred" to "Cell Network Preferred" result in me dropping WiFi Calling and it not coming back, I don't have strong enough signal to use my phone on Cell Network
Any suggestions or ideas how to make this work?
This appears to only be affecting my contacts, I can place calls from contacts in Touchdown and numbers that I dialed without an issue. Also is happening when I have wifi calling disabled for contacts, I am able to receive calls now though
Any solution to this? I am having the same problem

T-mobile?

Anyone on T-Mobile with the 5z? I have sketchy incoming voice and sms services with excellent signal. Missed calls and sms that just doesn't show up. I've tried auto config in carrier settings and manually selected T-Mobile US LTE for the apn. No difference.
I have this phone also on tmobile here in the US, no issues what so ever.

I have used it on T-Mobile without issues for 4 month. Before that I was on Metro PCS which is T-Mobile light and also a stint in Europe using T-mobile networks there - all with no problems.
I suspect GV is the culprit since zen ui doesn't allow configuring voice mail from anything other than "carrier".
I wonder if that changes in 9.0
Thanks for the replies.
I have the same.issue sometimes I get missed calls and texts it's not often maybe once or twice a week. I was going to try getting a new sim card to see if that helps

This issue continues...anyone using Google Voice successfully on this platform with T-Mobile? I just use GV for voicemail and some occasional sms on my GV number. Kinda sucks as I've missed some important calls and texts.

Can only receive text messages on CDMA

I am having issues with text messaging, and only text messaging at this time.
- I CANNOT receive text messages when my mobile network is on "AUTOMATIC" or "LTE/CDMA"
- I CAN receive text messages when I am in "CDMA ONLY"
- I CAN seem to send text messages on any network setting.
- Data seems to be working normal.
- I am unsure of incoming and outgoing calls, but seems to be normal.
Things I have done to combat the situation.
- Many "NETWORK RESETS"
- Had Sprint/T-Mobile do "NETWORK RESETS" on their end.
- Replaced SIM card and programmed it as needed with Sprint Tech Support and T-Mobile support.
- Booted and ran several days in "SAFE MODE" to eliminate any app issues.
- I have tried different texting applications
- I have taken my phone to an authorized Samsung dealer, UBreakIFix, and they went through the phone and say that the phone is in perfect condition and everything is working as it should.
I have done everything short of doing a factory reset.
Original purchase date is August of 2019.
Problems like these sometimes can be hard to pin down.
Could be needing a reprovision on your account. Bands not being selected. Blacklisted imei in some shape or form. The device in say like nam programming may be set to read CDMA based instead of gsm based or sim. My s8 had this issue when I went from CDMA to gsm.
Could be incorrect apn settings.
But it seems more like a carrier issue to me as everything else seems to be going ok for you. I would reach out to my carrier and aim for a account and device sim reprovision. Also doesn't Verizon still use that *228 or whatever to do over the air programming and roaming update. Maybe try that too

Try the LTE/GSM/UMTS setting and see what happens. I have a feeling that more people like you are going to be having problems because of the Sprint/T-Mobile merge. If possible, you should take it to a Sprint/T-Mobile store and see what they can do. They may tell you to do a factory reset. Because Sprint was CDMA/LTE and T-Mobile was GSM/LTE you may need to factory reset to connect to T-Mobile's networks as Sprint's gets shuttered.

He's a Sprint/T-Mobile subscriber. Any Verizon info won't help.

Question eSIM AT&T was working ... not anymore... help?

Not sure how many people out there got eSIM working with AT&T on their Fold 3. But 2 or so weeks ago I went into AT&T and got them to get eSIM working on my Fold 3. It's been working great till recently. I think it might have been with adding a 2nd line (Tello).
SIM1 = Tello
eSIM = AT&T
right now Tello works great. AT&T... I can get Text and data but I can't make any phone calls or receive any phone calls. Anyone else using the DUAL setup?? I went in to get a new eSIM and same thing. Can't make or receive call but I can text and receive text and get data.
I have removed the Tello Sim card for good measure. Rebooting a good dozen times and no matter what I can't get AT&T to dial out or get calls.
Any ideas??
Honestly sounds like the esim from att wasn't provisioned correctly. I'd try to get them to remove it from their system and readd it

i was warned about this scenario by an ATT Manager; he said that the physical sim had to be an ATT sim. i have an unlocked ATT Z Fold 3, however, i haven't tried using another carrier's sim/esim. I also have a network unlocked, ATT S22U with a T-Mobile eSim and an ATT physical sim. phone calls and text msgs work fine, as long as i use Samsung Messages (no the Google version). if i use Google's version of messages, group chats don't always work.
I have an unlocked fold 3 and use a Google Fi physical sim, and had a GSMA (AT&T) eSIM with Red Pocket. Both worked perfectly fine with no problems. Phone calls, texts and data were flawless on both networks.
Google Messages does have an issue it with dual sim. For example while connected to the mobile network if your preferred sim is set to the physical sim, but you try to send an mms with the number associated with the eSIM you will have to switch to the eSIM to send it. Chat messages are effected the same way. Text messages don't seem to be impacted that I have encountered. Receiving messages seems to be effected in the same manner. Google Messages works normally when connected to WiFi and using RCS Chat
Since we can only have one data connection active on one sim at the same time, Google Messages gets weird about it. The issue is not present with Samsung Messages or Textra. Until Google updates the Messages app to fix the issue you will have to either change the preferred sim back and forth, use RCS on WiFi only, use Samsung Messages or use another 3rd party messaging app that has dual sim properly working.
Also be aware changing the preferred sim will also make it the default for messaging and phone calls. For some reason we lack the setting to specify which sim for calling and messaging. So if your eSIM is the primary number you use and switch to the physical sim, all your calls/messages will come from the physical sim. Using the shortcuts i mention below won't fully resolve this either. You can use an app like multi sim selector to help with the calling, but the messages you will have to be aware of what number your messaging from (sim 1 or sim 2) or the above suggestions.
@OP - Might be worth getting a hold of AT&T and asking them to make sure the eSIM is provisioned correctly on your (and AT&T) end. If it was working and then not it sounds like an AT&T issue.
I'm not sure if this applies here, but I've read a few comments on the AT&T forums AT&T prepaid doesn't play well with eSIM. I can't verify that to be true or not since I don't have the prepaid service through AT&T.
Meanwhile make sure you have set the eSIM up properly in the sim card manager. At first my eSIM did not have the APN selected as active, I had to manaually mark it as such... Secondly does the call/text issue occur when the eSIM is set as the primary sim? If so go through and double check the sim card manager settings so you have DSDS enabled.
You might want to get an app like Quick Shortcut Maker and look for "Mobile Network".. There are a few sim manager settings that might help resolve some issues your having. I attached an image to help find the shortcuts.
