Okay so not even a couple days ago I noticed everytime I tried to bind facebook to an app I'll get a message that says "Sorry, something went wrong" on the facebook app where it usually takes me to the login page, which it doesn't do anymore. Instead I get that page.
Secondly GoSMS Pro doesn't wanna locate anymore when I go to Go Chat! and do Find option, it says "Connecting timed out, please check your network connection"
Thirdly as of today, my home networks wifi is now suddenly too weak and it refuses to connect to it at all anymore, goes to connect obtains ip and then disconnects and says its disabled cause the connection is too poor.
How can I fix these, mind GPS is turned on in my phone for GoSMS Pro. Really don't feel like doing a hard reset all cause of this!

Needless to GoSMS Pro fixed itself, still getting the problems with my home network and facebook.

reboot your router..
Resetting your route ought to fix signal strength issues, and I'd be willing to bet using a different facebook app might help with your binding (I recommend friendcaster)
Wow, this is frustrating. After half a year of thinking that Sprints network sucks and suffering through terrible connections I finally fixed my issue. After an ice storm this week I was getting nothing but a slow 3g connection. Tonight I was digging through ##data# settings and switched the network from "hybrid mode" to "cdma/evdo/lte mode" and the thing connects giving me 1.1 mb/s for download speeds. I thought I was going to have to force LTE only to be able to connect but I have not dropped back to 3g since switching over to this. I wish I would have done this months ago but toggling airplane mode worked to give me my 4g back so I didn't really worry about it.
If I remember from the epic touch days when you mess around with that it doesn't allow you to send MMS or make calls I think. Might be different now.

I didn't test mms yet but I made a call right after doing it and it worked. I will put it through some tests. I use google voice anyway so mms goes to email. This website, Whereismycellphone was able to call me.

chill out, no one's whining, and no one wants to hear you whining either.
I wish my issue was that simple. I have all the towers in my area NWed to 4G LTE, but the one next to my house. They skipped that one. Its like a gap, they won't be fixing anytime soon. My LTE speeds are ok, next to one side of my house.. but thats about it.

Lol, Calling people girls while you rant and rave like someone just said something bad about your boyfriend is hilarious.
Back on topic, OP have you had any issues with SMS/MMS since you did this tweak in the ##data# settings?
Same here with sprint's reception in my area and probably 70% of where I usually go out to. My friends have at&t and Verizon and they just blow away speed tests compared to sprint. I'm thinking of giving this a shot when I have some free time
Just had time to try this out and my setting is already at cdma/evdo/lte mode. Curious..

This has me intrigued. Sometimes I have issues with MMS, and it would be great if I could get all MMS messages that are sent to my phone (stupid group messaging...) to also go to an email box as well.

Sorry it took me a couple days to reply. I wanted to make sure to put it through all the paces. I have had nobody tell me they weren't able to reach me. This has actually been an improvement for me because while I was at home and would receive a phone call I would only hear the ring for about 5 seconds before it sent them to the voicemail. Phone calls are ringing right in now. One thing that happens is I get "darth vader" sounding either on my end or their end after a ten minute conversation or so. Although that happened before I changed this setting when I was stuck on 3g. Network pangs I guess. I am more than happy to call somebody back to have a steady 4g connection. All SMS/MMS questions do not apply to me because of how I use my phone. With google voice those are both going through data instead of messaging in its traditional sense. I LOVE google voice and the extensions to messaging that it provides me like being able to use it on wifi when I have 0 connectivity. I prefer typing out messages through the browser if I am at home because my stupid fingers have problems with hitting the wrong button on touch screen keyboards. Sorry for sounding like an advertisement for GV, lol. Nobody has my real sprint number... I use the GV number so I have extremely easy portability between providers when I decide to move. No mass messages to people with my new number that they might glance over.
Anyway, Hopefully other people have success with what I tried here.
Another thing I am wondering because of people saying they had different settings input. I should have mentioned in the OP that I am currently on TPR 3.12. Are the people who have a different option on a different rom?
So this has happened to me at home and work but it's not consistent. Some times when I try to connect I get a message on the WiFi connect that says "Network disabled because Internet connection is slow" (see picture). Any idea what criteria is used to determine this, and is there a way to over ride it?
I'm at work right now and I just got kicked out wifi due to too slow lol.. but at home I have not got it yet.. maybe too much people at work using the wifi network. .
I setup my home network to have separated name (SSID) for 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz Network.
When I connect to the 2.4Ghz channel, no problem.
At the same distance, like 6 inches away from the router, when I connect to the 5Ghz channel, my 2 Galaxy Note 3 shows the same "network too slow" error and it will drop the connection.
This is one of the many reasons I returned my GSN 3
I also experienced another WiFi error.
At work, I can connect to the WiFi network with the WPA password provided, on my HTC One with no issue whatsoever.
When I tried to connect to the same network using the Note 3, it keeps telling me I have to "sign-in", when I click on the browser to "sign-in" (like those Free WiFi you can get at the hotel), there is no sign in page (because there is none) and brings me right to Google.com.
After that, the connection will last for 30 seconds or so and drop off.
The one I got initially and the replacement, both have the same issue, and I did inform T Mobile before I return them back.
4.3 problem? Samsung's problem? I don't know... All I know is I will wait until they resolve all these before I will reconsider getting this phone.
I spoke to them on same issue. Got new phone and they working on updating the WiFi drivers.

Here is the fix for this it worked for me try this....
Go to wifi advanced settings lower left corner then uncheck auto network switch. Then check the box that pops up that says don't ask again. This should fix your wifi connecting issue...

So far yes. Not a 100% sure though because the problem was not consistent. Sometimes it would connect sometime give the message. So, I'll keep you posted if it comes back.
Not trying to say your post isn't serious enough but we all who are having this problem on a consistent basis need to make a thread about this and just not take anything for an answer, but to give people somewhere to complain about this & hopefully bring more attention to this because there is nothing that is fixing this issue. The only thing that will fix this is Samsung or a Dev on a custom ROM hopefully. If you uncheck the options in advanced settings, it just stops the pop up from coming up telling you the connection is to slow & dropping you, after unchecked it dont drop you but while still showing you a full connection it will not do anything data wise, connect to the internet, switch to a different site, no facebook, no twitter, no market etc..... Nothing, you dont get dropped you just cant do anything. I hope my anger dont make anyone think Im arguing with anyone in here and their opinions, we all have this problem and are trying to help eachother, im just poitning out that those who are thinking this is fixing things its not, its just stopping the pop up. I am very frustrated this is happening on a brand new phone i waited this long for and paid as much as i did for. There should be a freaking petition started for this cause its just wrong.
Works fine for me my wifi never disconnects now after unchecking auto network switch and always scanning... Idk what to tell you guys that are still having the issue because I had the same issue when I first got the phone too...
Maybe try forgetting the network then reconnect after unchecking those settings and reboot...

Not all phones are created equal. Samsung needs to change the wifi drivers on the phone or a dev needs to take note 2 drives and add them to a custom rom.

I posted this in a different forum also but figured id post it here to. I just got off the phone with Samsung & they told me its not a major reported problem, wtf, lol? Everyone i know who owns this phone has this problem with it sayin internet connection to slow and booting them off, even with full signal. Im on my 2nd phone now & have the same problem. They tried telling me to go in to the wifi call settings & turn off wifi calling preferred, & i said why? Even though it's checked I have it off. I said seriously? what is that going to do for a wifi signal problem, lol. It's not my wifi calling it's my full wifi signal. I can tell this is going to be a huge problem & im returning my phone, 3rd time now, for a new one today, if i get the same problem, almost positive i will, im sadly going to have to return this phone & just get a refund instead. & that would really suck. Maybe i'll try a black one, but im sure it probably happens on that one to, lol.
I have been having this problem also. Turning off "Auto network switch" in the advanced network settings allows the phone to hold on to the connection, but it is completely unstable. I tested the connection using iPerf and it was all over the place. I can post screenshots when I get home later if it helps anyone. Samsung definitely needs to step in here.

Hi, I just switched from Project Fi to T Mobile and wifi calling is not working on my Pixel 2 XL. If I'm in airplane mode, turn on wifi, and make a call, it gives me an error that says "turn off airplane mode or connect to a wireless network to make a call."
My searches on the net seem to show varying results with it seeming to work for some and not others. Please help! Please respond if you have a Pixel 2 XL on T Mobile and if wifi calling is working for you in airplane mode. I assume that a true wifi call on the Pixel will show a wifi symbol on the call screen, as it did for me when I was on Project Fi.
Thanks!
Just tried. Haven't used the wifi calling as I have a T-Mobile LTE hot spot and haven't needed to at home since. Worked fine though on stock 8.1 no root. Airplane mode active, WiFi on.
Never turned it on until I tested it out, I'm on 8.1 stock unrooted March patch and it works just fine.

Great suggestion, thank you. As I just started my T Mobile service yesterday, I had not entered an e911 address yet, which the store rep had asked me to do. However, I just added it and still have no wifi calling ability. That said, I'm not sure if this takes time to work, in other words now that I've put in the address if it takes 24 hours or something?
The other thing is that based on the error message I get, which I posted on page one of this thread, "turn off airplane mode....", it does not suggest a problem with the e911 address. It feels like a settings issue to me. An advanced settings issue. All I've got is a gut feeling and nothing to back it up. I've asked T Mobile for help on this and they are only somewhat interested because my phone is not a T Mobile device.
And that link you've included is GREAT because it officially suggests the Pixel 2 has wifi calling capability on T Mobile. Not the Pixel 2 XL but...it still might be good ammo for me when asking for help when they're not so interested.

Thank you for posting this picture! This is exactly what I'm looking for and what I recognize from successful Wi-Fi calling on Project Fi recently. I can tell that you feel my pain here and I appreciate it.
Another indication I'm noticing is that when I'm in airplane mode and Wi-Fi is on, I get a "no connection" indication bar in Android messages. See the attached thumbnail. That should not be happening and further indicates something is amiss. I think when that goes away I will have with Wi-Fi calling capability.
I had to enable the wifi calling within the phone app and it worked.

I've definitely done that, and gone through all of the menus.
To add insult to injury, my wife's MotoX4, on the same account and also brand new to T Mobile, has perfectly functioning wifi calling.
Thanks again for all of the responses. I may try going back to the store and having them re-provision my phone, in case something didn't get done right initially.

Whatever you don't, don't let any T-Mobile idiot try to lie to you saying you need a T-Mobile branded phone for wifi calling. When I was having issues getting this setup, one of the Tier 2 IT techs tried selling that line of bull****.

I know, I've received that one already. But there's way too much evidence on here and other forms to suggest that it absolutely works with the pixel 2 and can be done. I just need to find someone at T-Mobile who's willing to work on it with me.
If anyone has a contact at T-Mobile who they like, PLEASE let me know.
Would anyone who hasn't already specified please let me know if your phone is a Verizon specific device as opposed to the Google Store Pixel 2 XL? No one has said that their Google version has wifi calling working yet and that is the only thing I can think of.
Thank you!
