Stock TouchWiz is too slow for my dad he wants to root and flash a new ROM. The only thing that's stopping him is he's scared he'll lose wifi calling if he does this (he wants to call relatives in Hong Kong). Are there any ROMs that support that or no?

Hey guys,
I have the T-Mobile SGS3 and I want to install a custom rom but I am afraid to lose the Wifi T-Mobile Calling and Text messaging. I go overseas a lot and I need this feature to avoid roaming.
Does anyone know of a custom rom that I can use that will still support his feature that only T-Mobile has? I have been able to save a few hundred $ in roaming fee's by switching to T-Mobile when I am in Asia or Europe.
Thanks in advance for any help!

The stock roms based on official releases have WiFi Calling working. I'm on Xquizit v70 and it works perfectly. I'm not sure about the JB leaks. I was wondering if it was functional on those yet.
I know that the CM9/10 builds do not have WiFi Calling functional.
Everything with touchwiz has WiFi calling. Everything else does not.

Hi I love flashing roms but I have one big issue im very limited to the roms I can flash because i live in a basement where the reception sucks or is never any. So wifivcalling is a must for me. I was wondering if there is any applications out there that will work like wifi calling yet though keep my same number and receive calls also?..

There are no apps for wifi calling which uses your cell number to make and receive calls.
If you have a M919 Tmobile Galaxy S4 or an Unlocked Galaxy S4 and you have a tmobile
sim chip then you are in luck. (your carrier must be tmobile no other carriers offer wifi calling)
All of the M919 Tmobile Samsung Galaxy S4 Touchwiz 4.2.2 stock based custom roms have wifi calling built-in.
Just flash a Samsung Galaxy Touchwiz S4 4.2.2 based Tmobile rom like the Wicked v7 custom rom (which is excellent) and it has wifi calling built-in.
Do anyone know a working method to add wifi calling to S5 Rom I love the rom only issue is I don't have signal at the house ...
If you can link me to the apps and libs for kitkat t-mobile wifi calling and whatever else is required I can try add it myself thanks

If your phone is a Tmobile SM-G900T S5 model it already has Wifi Calliing
unless you have flashed a non Tmobile SM-G900T S5 rom.
There are NO apps at the playstore which enable wifi-calling.
The only way to have wifi calling is to have a Tmobile SM-G900T S5
phone with either Tmobile SM-G900T S5 4.4.2 stock rom or Tmobile
S5 SM-G900T custom 4.4.2 Kitkat based roms.
Any other roms will not have wifi calling.
Good luck!

Thanks for your reply I understand what you are saying so if someone port the s5 from from an official t-mobile s5 it'll work? I was Abe to transfer most of the WiFi calling apps and libs it's shows in setting I can turn it on but that's it I'm missing something I pulled it from t-mobile s5 Rom thread

You have not revealed your phone's model yet.
But none of the ported roms have or are compatible with wifi calling
and none of them have wifi calling ability.
If your phone is NOT a Tmobile phone it will never have working wifi
calling regardless what roms, ported roms or modifications you make.
Good luck!

Both the S5 and the Note 3 have wifi calling ability as
long as you use stock or stock based custom roms.
There is no need to modify, add or change any files.
If you are trying to use a ported/modified S5 rom
in your Note 3 the wifi calling feature will not work.
Modifying, changing or adding files will not make
the wifi calling work on any ported/modified roms
of any kind.
And that's all there is to it! LOL
OK check out this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2696134&page=80 they have WiFi calling working on s5 port sprint how come it can't be done for t-mobile? Can someone one post the WiFi calling files or let me know all the required files so I can work on this thanks...

Yes, I checked it out and the reason it has wifi calling is because SPRINT added that feature
for the Sprint branded Galaxy Note 3 and soon for the Sprint branded Galaxy S5.
Regardless of the fact that SPRINT recently added wifi calling to their phones it does not mean
that the SPRINT wifi calling can be ported to other brands and or models of phones.
It has nothing to do with Tmobile, Tmobile phones already have wifi calling if you use a
Tmobile branded S5 or Note 3 and a Tmobile NB4/NE6 based stock or custom rom and
an active Tmobile sim card.
None of the PORTED or AOSP roms will have wifi calling if you don't have a Tmobile
branded phone and don't use the NB4/NE6 N900T based custom or stock roms.
Ok check pics got everything like it should look my only problem is check the pics is t-mobile s5 sim card different from the t-mobile note 3? Any ideas i can connect to wifi no data my imei goes away airplane mode turns on every boot baseband is blank all this happens when i switch telephony-common.jar when i go back to original my signal..im sure i dont know what im talking about but any help is appreciated

I own a att note 4 already unlocked but I am thinking of going with tmobile for the wifi calling feature. This is where my problem lies ...is there any way to install tmobiles wifi calling features over the stock rom? I've been out of the rom scene for a long time and would very much appreciate any help that could be offered I'm at my wits end on this one.
If I am thinking correctly, the Wi-Fi calling feature is part of the ROM. You may be able to install a t-mobile rom on the phone, if you have a NON AT&T phone, as I believe that the boot-loader on the AT&T phone is still locked and there is no workaround yet.
I am currently running a t-mobile note 3 on AT&T and the Wi-FI calling feature is not possible on AT&T service.

That's correct, eventually att will do wifi calling
Just wondering if anyone with more knowledge of these things knows the possibility of getting wifi calling on our M8's running stock roms. There's news of the Nexus 6 over on T-Mobile getting wifi calling activated with the new 5.1.1 update. I have a T-mobile HTC One that I've since flashed skydragon stock rom on (fav rom so far) but the ONE thing I miss about Sense roms is the wifi calling feature. It isn't always necessary but those times that you do have it you're grateful that it's there (in the basement of a house, or in locations where T-mobile's network coverage is weak).
SO again, anyone here know whether that code introduced in 5.1.1 to allow wifi calling on a stock lollipop device on the magenta network will make an appearance on 5.1.1 roms?
DISCUSS! (And thanks)
doesnt hangouts dialer do the same thing?
Can you receive phone calls made to your cellular number on hangouts dialer?

yes, but I believe you'd need to setup/activate google voice and port the number over first.
