I have a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S3 SGH-T999 which supports wifi calling and am looking to flash a ROM onto it to use newer apps like Periscope, but I NEED wifi calling to work.
Anyone know of a really stable ROM that 100% supports wifi calling? Thanks.
As far as I am aware (and I could be incorrect) but only stock does wifi calling. Apps like hangouts can though.

That's not what he's asking. He wants run newer apps like periscope but wants to keep wifi calling.

Ahhhh OK I misunderstood. Sorry about that. I have an s3 (t999l) running Octo and it seems to work for all of them. On occasion you have to reboot when the camera hangs but it works well.

but you can still do wifi calling? like can i make calls to someone like normal using wifi calling? not using dedicated apps.

Is there a wifi tether out that is working for the e4gt ?

Check out the sprint hotspot hack. Sorry for no link. Think it might be in the themes/app section

The previous 2 posts handle all of your needs. Hotspot hack is only for 3g right now Wifi Tether works great for 4g needs

wifi tether
Any of these work in non-adhoc mode? Trying to get my HP Touchpad (cyangenmod) to work with it.

Anyone running the calukin (sp?) rom and can get their wifi tether to work? I've asked in the rom thread, but no reply.

STOCK E4GT with root... when I try to load any version of Wifi Tether it makes my wifi radio not work again at ALL until I uninstall wifi tether AND run another app that utilizes the wifi radio like the kies app after a restart. This is consistent after 4 different version attempts. I do NOT want to try to the deodexed hotspot hack until the LOS fix is official, because I do not want to run anything but stock until then. Anyone in my boat that has figured out how to make it all play nicely?

Let me see if I have what you said right. Without any tether app installed, just the sprint hotspot, the hotspot works. But then if you install wireless or wifi tether it makes the sprint hotspot not work?
I had the same issue. Until I did the same.

...not entirely. I mean the wifi could not connect to an access point until I ran the kies app. Did not try the stock tether app, because I don't want to pay for a service that I may use a couple times a year.
Also, seeing your sig you may be the person to help me. What is the best speed controller/motor combo for an old school RC10T that I want to get going again in a big way? Reverse stopped working a while ago and I am pretty sure the motor is shot as well. Been seeing some people clock ridiculous speeds with some of the new repower kits out there.
Never have been an electric guy, always nitro. But the brushless stuff is where its at and running lipo batts. Castle creations is one of the best companies out along with teken. Pricey stuff but they are well worth it. If you want more shoot me a pm.

I was wondering how do I remove wifi calling? I don't use it and I'm trying to remove everything that I don't use but I can't find it anywhere......even with titanium back up
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
I think its not just one .apk but its build in with the bundle. You can try a different rom that doesn't have wifi calling feature. If I was you, I would just disable it in settings.

I second disabling it in Settings.
You never know when you might need it, for emergency situations. For example, when traveling, you're at a place with WiFi ...but ****ty phone service.
I am pretty sure that T-Mobile gives wifi calling to all customers as long as your device supports it.
I have the Samsung Note 2 and really miss the Wi-Fi calling since I have been flashing different Rom's. I have terrible service at home so it is really convenient to have the Wi-Fi calling.
There are now two versions of MIUI for the Samsung T-Mobile Note 2 both of which have not supported Wi-Fi calling.
Does anyone know a work around to get Wi-Fi calling working on MIUI?
All phones can pretty much support wifi calling however not all software can support it. Aosp and miui do not support wifi calling. Devs have been working on getting Wifi calling to work on aosp/miui roms. Some older phones like the mytouch 4g got wifi calling working for aosp roms. Best bet would be to download custom rom based off touch wiz and apply a theme and custom launcher and in your case it would be mi home launcher.

Good advice. I just always live miui ROMs. They are snappier and have great features. I guess I have to weigh those things over having WiFi calling. Thanks

Just sign up for Google voice. No issues on wifi here so far. I was using it on Jedi x15 .
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
I was thinking about Google voice but wouldn't that only work for outgoing calls? Incoming calls wouldn't know to dial my Google voice number when on WiFi. Unless there some other app that does that too?

This was great advice. I found a stock Rom that was odexed in the forums and I still have root access. I didn't realize that I could have root access without a custom ROM. The stock Rom has really good features and is very snappy. Also, I didn't know that I could have the MIUI theme on top of the stock touchwiz ROM. I'm using mihome with the superman theme. So happy with my phone now. Everything works right and it looks great.
Any ideas on getting a transparent notification bar?

Wait... What? Google Voice can be used as a wifi calling tool? Ive been on FrostyJB 8 and while I like the rom, I'd rather have another rom but due to worki must have wifi calling. I've always been told you have to use a crapplication like GroovIP... more on this please! This could have just changed my life lol

It was very laggy and it wouldn't answer half of the calls on four different wifi networks... refunded that one. My business is too important to miss calls because of third party software failures.
Never had that issue in Afghanstain I did but thats because Sat Internet has a latency of the 800ms so anything is going to have an issue carrier or not carrier. Spent time in Germany also and used it for two weeks and never once had a hiccup
T-Mobile surprised me when I was offered unlimited LTE, capped at around 4800GB of data. I have rooted my phone and I'm running VirginROM (4.3 Vanilla), and the default WiFi hotspot option doesn't work. I get data when my phone is on HSPA+, but an LTE connection will just not send data to my laptop or PS Vita. Are there any reliable apps or methods to turn my phone into a LTE hotspot?

Carrier not supported for that app, sucks since it has good reviews. And the other app the poster shared below doesn't seem to work either. Anyone else have reliable working tether apps?

WiFi Tether 3.3 beta 2 works fine. What's the problem ur having?
So I went to the (how to guide) here and it describes how to get it with the wifi tether app and being rooted... well ive done that mate.... and I check my t-mobile account and it still uses my 2.5 gigs of free wifi tethering.... is there another way?
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
If you already have a plan with free tethering what exactly do you expect from this? If you use data, it's going to show up on your account as being used whether you are tethering or not.
I don't expect anything I just thought the WiFi tethering would show up on on my data plan which is unlimited. My tether plan is only 2.5 gigs plan. It does the same as the stock hotspot tethering. Which in turn renders that app "WiFi tethering" useless. Its no big deal just asking the guide said he could use unlimited WiFi tether and T-Mobile didn't charge him for unlimited use... that wasnt the case for me....

It works for all data going in and out of your phone. And it all depends on which vpn you choose. A lot of free ones slow down data speeds to keep it free. Paid ones do not.

If your with Tmobile... use the my tmobole account app
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
STEP 1
"STOCK ROM"
-download "1 click tether" from the market...this will force the internal tethering to turn on
OR
Run an AOSP rom, internal tethering is unlocked in aosp roms
STEP 2
once youve figured out step one, you should be able to tether, whether on aosp or tw ,it dont matter....only problem is, tmobile will soon block you because of your user agent on the computer
so you have two options...
1. download a browser on your computer that supports changing your user agent...chrome, firefox...ect...change the user agent to something other than windows...you can now use unlimited tethering on your browser.
NOW.....This will only give internet to the browser, not the computer globally...The only way to get global tethering on every program on the pc you'd have to set up a VPN...via the phone or via pc...VPN's are usually not free thou
My setup
-Running CM10 ROM
-Using the internal tethering option in the rom
-I use google chrome
-In google chrom i use this extension called "user agent switcher" https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/user-agent-switcher/lkmofgnohbedopheiphabfhfjgkhfcgf
-everytime i open google chrome i change the user agent to "safari on mac"
DONE
Yes try vpn hideman.
