Definitely need Wi-Fi Calling in the area where I live.
I have seen apps that offer Wi-Fi Calling from the UVMC 6 Release by TMO but some of them don't.
What files do I need to manipulate (I'm guessing some .so files from lib and .jar files from framework) would I need to put Wi-Fi calling into my ROMs that are UVMC 6 but may not have Wi-Fi calling?
Anybody have any ideas or leads that I can follow?
Thank you.
Seriously...take this advice...Just install a tmo based rom.
This is a catch 22. If you were good enough to add tmo wifi calling to a non-native rom, you'd be building your own kernels from scratch and would be experienced enough to know how. In not saying you're not experienced because I don't know. What I do know is what you're asking for is 1. not easy and 2. not for beginners.
Edit: and I forgot the most important thing...tmo's wifi calling is a closed source feature so there's no code to build from.

Well see that's the thing. I am using a native T-Mobile ROM (uvmc6) latest release with their radio...not sure about kernel but it is just missing the feature WiFi calling.

Do you have wifi calling enabled? Is it enabled on your account? Do you have the proper SIM? Has it worked before for you?

Okay. It is the stock rom; debloated; deoed and zip aligned.
On the past stock ROM (Same radio, same kernel, same release (UVCM6)), I had wi-fi calling working. This is a new ROM (the awesome Embryo 6.11 to be exact) and I am trying to get the files necessary from a native UVCM6 ROM with wi-fi calling working onto the Embryo ROM.
Sum it up:
-Currently Using Embryo 6.11 (debloated UVCM6) ROM without Wi-Fi Calling feature.
-Trying to put the files from a Tmo released stock UVCM6 ROM with Wi-Fi calling feature.
Need the files necessary

My suggestion is ask in the thread if that option is not showing up on your phone. And make sure its not there. If its not maybe re-flash the ROM.
The embryo ROM is based on the skyrocket from AT&T. Its not a native Tmo build. Yes, stuff was added for WiFi calling but the code is not intended to work with it. Try another rom. I sure could use WiFi calling as well but seeing as I need a new sim card(to lazy to get a new one) I switched back to embryo from countless Tmo 4.1.2 ROMs. I guess its the theme that got me lol
To answer your question, no. WiFi calling won't work on the Embryo ROMs.

There's Jedi Mind Trick, Infamous, Jellybeast and a couple other stock ROMs in the dev section that run as smooth as embryo minus the customization. Just give the ROMs some time to add custom features...

Well, I know all this. He did an awesome job with the ROM with customization and everything. I like Embryo probably the best of all the TW Roms. But even with his inclusion of wi-fi calling apk, the framework didn't transfer over for TMO UVMC6. I am hoping in his next release he will work on it.
But, what i was hoping to make was a flashable zip file with the necessary framework and apk to add on to his ROM. I wanted to know if devs knew what files were workable with.
when i was using Infuse 4G, I used this method successfully to get TMO Wifi calling working on ATT based ROM. Of course it wont work on our SGS2 but looks like there maybe a way to enable TMO wifi calling on non TMO based ROMs...

Thank you for your response.
I think I might've actually used a method of some sort like that in the past for Gingerbread ROMs. 2.2 and 2.3, that method worked. It was in that format.
However, with the release of JB; (ICS never had it right) its more of achange on framework files;
I'm guessing its a framework.apk that needs to be modified;
if its a jar file, i can simply make an extension; but i'm guessing also that there is more than that..

In the Embryo thread, IF I'm not mistaken, I think he was going to rebase his ROM with our stock UVMC6.

With the next release? (21st one?)
UVMC6 bit was added last release on the 14th but the framework for Wi-Fi calling wasn't right.
I am hoping he updates it. LOL i'm so even willing to pay his team for it lol

It's my understanding there is quite a bounty for the first developer to build the feature you are looking for. Wifi-Calling is so baked into the tmo roms that countless developers have tried to port/transfer/recode/bla bla bla it over to AOSP/AOPK, etc. and still haven't got it working. However, the code or theory on how to do it is available here https://code.google.com/p/the-ims-open-source-project-for-android/. I also would be using Embryo 6.11 if the wifi calling worked. As stated before Embryo 6.11 was build from a native att rom it will never have wifi calling. Even though the apk was move over, wifi calling is in so many different .apks and frameworks and jars. Some of those files I'm sure you can just copy over like SecMms.apk but the developer of Embryo modified so man files that it's not feasible. There was talk of him rebaseing Embryo on UVMC6 but as far as I know he hasn't done that yet. Now with the Galaxy S5 out, I really don't expect many developers to continue working on the aging Galaxy S2.

Hey, so I don't know if you've found another alternative or something, but there is one ROM that I know of that has the Wi-Fi calling. It's still based off of the Jellybean update but it worked for me. Here ya go. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2670624
Hope that helped.

All of @Rushing ROMs are based on 4.1.2 touch wiz and have WiFi calling. Just click his name. Go to threads started, and you'll see his ROM threads.
I haven't seen any KitKat ROMs which have WiFi calling enabled - I've looked. Has it been obsoleted?

Just not possible to port it to aosp ROMs. Has to be touchwiz, for the s2 anyway. So jelly bean 4.1.2 was the last official update, and last with WiFi calling.

Thanks for the note - that makes sense. I was wondering why WiFi calling was conspicuously absent.
Hello all. I need a bit of help. I've been looking for a reliable ROM with working native tether. I tried Jedi x2 but I miss a lot of calls and since I use my phone for work I can't risk missed calls. Ultimately I think I would like a stock,rooted 4.3 ROM with native tether working. I'm already on the 4.3 baseband BTW. Any help is appreciated. Oh I also tried swarm 2.1 but I couldn't get tether working. Sorry. Very noon...

Is there any roms on 4.3/4.4 with wi-fi calling? I really need the wi-fi calling for my daughters note 2. Any help? The phone has been on 4.1 ever since.

There are several 4.3 ROMs in the Development section. T-Mobile has not released a 4.4 rom for the T889 to date precluding wifi calling on KitKat ROMs on the Note 2.

Aside from the stock 4.3 rom, there is also Mr. Robinson's Rom which is rooted stock. You can choose the 4.3 (MK7) version. It supports wifi calling. It is found here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975560
There is also one more modified stock Rom by Ciphercodes. It is also based on stock 4.3 (MK7). It can be found here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2636552
Both of these support Wifi calling. Coug 76 is right, there is no KitKat 4.4 version from T-Mo yet so there are no 4.4 Roms that have wifi calling. But either of these listed above will do fine.
Good luck.
Hello is there any 4.4.2 roms for T999 (preferably touchwiz) with wifi calling?
Thanks
Nope
So what is the best ROM for this phone with wifi calling?

Try any T-Mobile TouchWiz rom til you find what you're looking for
If you don't mind older ROMs, z999 (search it) has been the most stable ROM ever for me personally but I think it's like 4.1 but it's still stable and is the fastest ROM with the best battery life I've ever used.
Hello,
Is there any kit kat touchwiz ROM available which is somewhat stable? I would like to be able to use tap n pay. I have a Verizon NOte 2 with such a ROM and it works great. I am upset that it is so hard to find a ROM for the tmobile phone.
I guess Tmobile never released kitkat for this phone?
Lol .. :sly:
Use S.W.A.R.M (Stock) or Test Rom 1.2 (it has some S5 apps - does not have wifi calling) follow all instructions for installing.
Sorry SWARM isnt KitKat. Rom of Thrones is - which is the base for my Test Rom 1.2 - Good Luck.

Thanks,
I did try test ROm and my wifi wasn't working. I now know that its because I needed to update my baseband .. Which I have now done. SO ill give one of those a try.
I also understand that we can load AT&T roms on this phone as long as we are using the T889 Radio,,, so I am looking at those roms as well

Yes. You can also try AGNi Kernel if Wifi still isnt working. From my experience 4.3.0 is the best so far.

I had to flash the wifi fix. Im not sure if flashing a kernel would have fixed my wifi problem. As I understand; the issue is that my phone has the original bootloader that it was shipped with. it doesnt have the 4.3 OTA bootloader therfore I had to install this wifi fix.
SO now I have a Tmobile T889 running an ATT touchwiz rom... I have working LTE(LTE worked with Tmobile roms too). To get the LTE to work I had t flash the latest tmobile radio. My Google wallet tap n pay works again. I am extremely happy about this setup!
Oh... and I am using AT&T go as the service... not Tmobile

Yes flashing a kernel would have fixed the wifi. Flashing the patch wouldve probably made things worse to be honest..now the only way to revert the patch is to odin back to the original firmware...
Im on 4.1.2 Bootloader myself. Havent upgraded to anything above that..i only flash kernels and the modems. Works fine for me. Only issue is the charging while phone is off doesnt work.
Which Rom did you use?
