[Q] call settings

im using a verizon note 2 with an att sim card. The problem is that when i receive phone calls the number shows up with a + in front of it
(+5162596514). When i try to call that number it doesnt go thru stating that im not allowed to make international calls even though its a local number. I never had a problem with the verizon sim card it only started when i made the switch. Would the apn settings have something to with it? any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello can anyone please share your experience specifically on the calling and the texting features ?

Wow no one here have courage? To try this? Lol
C'mon guys pop that SIM card in there and share the experience!!!!!!!!!!
I would like no know this too as I just got the 4G LTE and text messaging works flawlessly, except phone calls as it gives me busy signal on all calls that are made. Don't know what's wrong. The sim card is activated and everything works as it should. Except phone calls..

There's really not a lot to talk about. The SM-P601/5 are just giant phones. Anything a N3 can do, they can do. Dialers and MMS/SMS are pretty much the same on every phone and the SM-P601/5 are no exception.
Here's a screen shot...
P.S. - In order to use the voice and messaging features the SM-P601/5 have to be provisioned by your carrier as "phones." Tablet-specific data plans don't support calls or MMS even though the device is capable.
I was waiting for a response and didn't get anyone to chime in so I finally got my note 10.1 p605 so here goes yes you need to get a sim with voice and data plan it will work. I'm currently using it as my phone at the moment and it rocks!
I have the SM-P605 4G LTE and I couldn't figure out how to make phone calls on this device. Can you help?

Is your SM-P605 from a carrier or Samsung? The U.S. carriers and possibly some others disable voice and MMS and always have in the tablets they offer. If you don't see the Dialer and Messaging apps when you look in the app drawer I'm guessing they've been disabled in whatever version of SM-P605 you have. If you see them and can't use them that means the SIM you're using probably doesn't support voice and MMS. They're either there out-of-the-box or they aren't. If they aren't there's not a lot you can do about it.
BarryH,
I got mine from the Verizon store. I downloaded a Dialer app from Google Play and tried to make a call, but still no go. The app brought up a Dialer, but when I punch in a telephone number, and press Send, it just beeps and does nothing. The Sim card was from my 4G LTE phone. I swapped it over.
I was, however, able to make calls using Google Voice & Groove IP. But man, I would just love to be able to make calls just like a phone.

FreedomPop on Sprint S3

Hey guys, so I'm looking into FreedomPop (http://www.freedompop.com/), which is a somewhat newer thing to my state. I set it up on his phone and not entirely sure about it. They give you 1gb of data, yet you have to download their messaging app. When you activate it activates your data, but calling and text cant be used besides through their app which uses data. Ie, your data is used for everything from what I can tell and cell signal is worthless.
The point of this is I'm wondering if it will work on the Sprint S3 SPH-L710 and if that is how freedompop is meant to work since I cannot find any info at all about it. Would prefer to use the stock messaging app but it just gives you a sprint text saying you cant text as if you're still on sprint and all the info in your phone says sprint, network says sprint, etc..
FreedomPop s3
I just in the last week got a s3 from FreedomPop it is running 4.4.2 and came with there dailer and messaging apps installed and the stock ones have been removed. as far as I can tell they are using sprint the phone even says sprint on the back. also when I set up my google voice number it asked me if I wanted to use that as the main number on the phone witch to my understanding is a sprint only thing? but I can confirm google voice connecting for texting and sipdroid will connect but because they removed the stock dialer I cant call out with sipdroid. I hope this helps you out. I am only just now trying to play with sipdroid so I might have more info later.

Apparently the mobile phone part of them is in beta stages. But from what I've noticed, you don't actually have service. Only data service. Everything uses data. If you were to disable data, nothing would work. As far as I can see on the S2 because everything you do it recorded as data under settings. Like phone calls and texts. Where as a normal network it would be over the cell towers and not the data towers. I know they are the same thing but if you're in an area without data, but have signal still, you'd be screwed in that situation.

Tmobile GN2 on straigh talke (at&t)

I have gn2 unlocked and rooted stock 4.3
I put in a straight talk sim in the phone and entered the correct apn settings. currently text, data, mms all function correctly.
the problem is that voice calls do not work at all, inbound call ring out to voicemail and outbound calls immediately hang up
I called the cust svc number and they claim that since it was originally a tmo device I need to get the tmo compatible sim card from straight talk because the software in the phone is not compatible with an at&t based sim
I want to find an at&t rom stock 4.3 rom only (not kernel/modem) to test their theory
Solved: phone had incorrect settings in the "hidden menu"
I changed it to umts/lte
Sent from my SM-N920P using XDA-Developers mobile app

LEAVING VERIZON FOR T-MO Problems with Data Dropping during call

Hey friends,
I'm looking to take my Note 8 from Verizon to Tmobile. The problem I'm having at the moment is while on T-Mo's network all calls forward to voicemail, no problem with making outgoing calls. Spoke at length with Tech support and we ran a test and did ##21# to deactivate the unconditional call forwarding. The phone received a call immediately afterward, but after 5 minutes reverted back to forward all calls to voicemail. I have 2 note 8's from Verizon and both did the same thing. Brought over 2 iPhone SE's with no problem. In addition, the data drops completely during a call. The call will not connect until the data is dropped then the call beings to ring.
I tried first unrooted then rooted them as they both are V2 via SamFail. Any thoughts? Anyone experienced anything similar. Tech support from T-Mobile said that If the phone had a 2G Only option that the service would work fine. Weird... Regarding the root, should I flash a home_CSC from Tmobile?
Thanks in advance for those they respond. :good:
