[Q] wifi calling not working

I've had my Note 3 (SM-N900T) for a few months. Wifi calling worked up until a few weeks ago. I don't know what I could have done to break it, but it's busted. The phone is connecting to wifi (the internet works), but the wifi calling icon never appears, even if the setting is changed to only use wifi calling.
I've tried forgetting/reconnecting to wifi, worked with T-Mobile support, they verified all the settings on their end, and eventually gave me a new sim. They tried to blame my router (which hasn't changed in the last few weeks). I went to a friend's house and wifi connected fine, but no wifi calling. I went to a T-Mobile store and their wifi didn't work. Probably not the router...
My phone is rooted with the DeLaVega root (knox not set) with minimal changes. The T-Mobile store blamed this issue on the root, of course. This was working for quite a while after the root.
Before I do a factory reset, is there anything I'm missing?
Thanks!

Nope note 3 wifi calling sucks

Do you think it's likely that even after the factory reset, this will eventually happen again? Should I just get used to the fact that I don't get wifi calling? That might send me crawling back to AT&T.

I had WiFi calling issues on Note3, updated router firmware, works like a champ since then (close to 2 months). Since my old GS3 worked well before router update, that was little tricky to figure out.

Sounds good. I will jump through the hoops to upgrade my router. Thanks for the info!

How do you update the router if u don't mind me asking and will it affect anything else that's connected on wifi with?

I looked up the model of the router, found the manufacturer, and downloaded the firmware file. Then logged into it and found the advanced features and updated the firmware. This process is slightly different for every router, but that's the gist of it.
It shouldn't impact the router settings. The only impact will be the brief downtime as the router updates and resets.

Yeah, could be the ROM for you. I'm using the stock ROM. And I'm already on the latest firmware on my current router, so I'm having Frontier send me a new model of router. Maybe that will help?

Sadly, I did a factory reset and replaced my router, neither of which were the root cause.
This was the issue: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2599509
I replaced the file specified in that thread and wifi calling is working now.

Wifi Calling Error

I am just curious if anyone else is having trouble with wifi calling after the update? I can't get mine to connect at all. Sometimes nothing ever happens and sometimes I get an error message ER081.. I googled it and only the Note 4 I believe is reported of having this issue and it was fixed by doing something to the router. I don't think that is the case for me because Ive reset them twice. I reset my phone too. I called TMo and they're clueless. Any ideas??

Just chiming in to say I'm having identical issues. Tried multiple wifi routers (work, friend's place, etc), none work. Unfortunately I don't have any advice beyond what you already mentioned (factory reset).
Questions:
Was your update OTA? I used LG mobile support tool.
Do you think re-downloading/installing the update would be worth trying? My first thought is no. Basically if 99% of functions are working then it seems unlikely there was an error in download/install steps...

So I found out it was my modem from Time Warner Cable. I ran some speed tests on my wifi and it was running extremely slow. I was still getting decent internet speeds on all my devices, but I guess it was slow enough to mess up wifi calling. It turns out they upgraded the firmware around the same time I reflashed 5.0. It was more of a matter of coincidence. Try to have your internet provider factory reset your modem and re-tune the wifi channels.

I have same issue too.
I used LG Mobile support tool too.
my sd card wasn't recognized by g3 at first, so I format the card and now it works.. I just need to fix this wifi calling, and heavy battery usage...
also, when I go check setting, it's pretty much stuck on enabling... and when I mess with VoLTE toggle, sometimes I get error message, 99
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I just got off phone with T-Mobile, tech support said, it's known issue, and temp fix is to get OTA via text msg and engineers are working on the backend to fix the issue.

I am having the same problem with the wi-fi calling....if anyone find out the solution please post

I got the problem resolved
I had the similar issue on my LG G3 after Android 5.0 upgrade. This is because of wifi calling upgrade from 1.0 to 2.0 included in this android update.
I called T-Mobile support and they reset the APN settings over the phone. Issue is fixed now. Great!:highfive:
Just call T Mobile support at 611 and you will get your issue resolved. ( Don't play around with your home router! )

Well when I called 611 they tried everything and I still had the issue, they were about to do a device trade in because they couldn't figure it out. Might work for some, not me though.

If any of you want to roll back to kitkat I found a website that showed how to do it and it worked. I am getting alerts to upgrade but will wait til the bugs are fixed
I can't post the link because I haven't made 10 posts yet but if you are interested message me for the link and then maybe you can post if you posted more than 10 times

i called tmobile about this they said LG is aware of it and is working on a fix, when i asked them about hte APN they said nothing they could do on their end....

Just curious, is wifi calling working for anyone after 5.0? I've tried a bunch of APNs no luck. Thanks

Yeah that's what I had to do. I had Time Warner factory reset it. I have the Tmo cellspot router hooked up to the TWC modem and it wasn't working initially either. After they reset it and tuned the signal mine started working with no hiccups.
Try turning wifi off and wifi calling off. Then turn wifi on and wifi calling back on then see if it will work..

I spoke to T Mobile today concerning the WIFI calling not enabling. They stated that they are aware and have been working with LG to get a fix. But there is no time frame for the fix. However, I have a work around that helps me out.
1. Go to settings >> Networks and tap Airplane Mode.
2. Wait for Airplane mode to enable, and, wifi states "Connections not allowed".
3. This is important! Read carefully. otherwise this will not work. While Airplane mode is enabled, enable wifi. Wait! When Airplane Mode goes from being gray to bold then disable Airplane mode.
4. Wait a few seconds and wifi calling will come one.

Mine did stopped working as soon as i upgraded to LP. Went into T-Mobile and got a new sim.

LG G4 WiFi issues

Good evening all.
Has anyone with a G4 on VZW noticed issues with apps on wifi since the latest firmware update? I've called Verizon and been on the phone with them for HOURS to no avail.
The only time wifi works normally is in safe mode. When I'm on wifi, most apps just aren't functional at all. We thought it was some app in particular so we reset the phone and the issue persists. The only thing tech support suggests is giving me another refurbished G4 which will get us nowhere as the new G4 will just be running the same firmware.
This is problematic for me as I work in and out of different buildings on any given day. These buildings don't always provide the best reception. I clamored with Verizon for a different, comparable phone. I spoke with LG and their solution is me sending the phone in with the turnaround time being 5-7 business day which is also problematic as I don't have another phone to use. Verizon refuses to acknowledge it's an "issue" because it's not "wide spread". A quick search revealed that this problem is not limited to just me.
I've exhausted my options. I do not want to spend hours on the phone with Verizon again. I do not want to speak with LG for the same phone again. I simply want a working phone. This is the 3rd G4 that I've had that does not work. The 3rd G4 in almost as many months. What are my options here?
tl;dr This is my 3rd LG G4 that doesn't work and the latest firmware update broke the wifi functionality. Verizon refuses to acknowledge the issue and will only give me the same phone, not a comparable phone. What are my options?"

Yup. Since the update. Wifi on my phone is lagging horrendously.

Yes, since the update I don't get any notifications while connected to WiFi. My WiFi is slow anyway, so I haven't noticed any lag that others are reporting.

I spoke with them again today. Their only option is to send the same phone again which isn't going to fix anything unfortunately.

Same problem here (and also with friends who have both VZW and the G4). This exact issue popped up on the LG G3, also after an update. Infuriating that they broke another otherwise good phone. The workaround is to install an app called DNSet. It sets the DNS to Google's, which fixes it.

I am having the same issues. doesn't matter which Wi-Fi network I'm on, it is terrible. Otherwise I love the phone, but this is getting really frustrating

Yeah I'm having the same issue. It's maddening!! Nothing comes through unless I manually sync or have to open the app to get it to sync. How is this an acceptable software update for verizon - who usually requires a high level of quality control on software updates??

The Update broke Notifications over WiFi. It has something to do with IPv6. Verizon PULLED the update because this is a major problem.
Either call Verizon and have them replace the phone (you will get the older firmware 11A back on it)
OR
The fix is to download DDNS or something (It is a VPN service) that routes ALL internet traffic over IPv4 connections. I forget the specific name, but it is being heavily discussed in the "VERIZON UPDATE" forum in the General section.

Read the thread, I think toward the end more.
Almighty1 said:
Give this solution a shot, and what router (make/model) do you have exactly?
You can fix this issue without root by using the app DNSet from the Google Play store. You hit 1 button (the one and only button), and it turns off IPv6, and problem solved.

The new update 3.2.4

Should I or should I not? I heard it has problems with the LTE and stuff.. Is it true?

I haven't had any issues with neither lte signal nor battery life. cannot say about android pay as it is not available in India yet. You can always do a reset after the update and if still face issues then you can flash an older firmware.

I have it ... And i didnt notice a single issue with 4g/LTE.. i use LTE 70% of tthe time
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using XDA-Developers mobile app

It does break Android Pay. Says something about having to unroot your device. Mine is not rooted, it's 100% stock. Known issue.
I don't have any problems with 4G and whereever available I use it. On O2 in the UK.

I just noticed battery drain with the 3.2.4 version. In 1h up to 10% - 15% even in standby.

No issues for me with LTE or battery life; I'm in Toronto, Canada. I don't use Android Pay so I cannot comment.
Running OOS 3.2.4 with Ex Kernel, Root and Xposed.
Phone connected to WiFi overnight drain is 0.6% per hour.

i just received my brand new OP3 today and I updated to the latest 3.2.4 and its been working fine for me and again I don`t use android pay.

When you have a look at the file name in the update notification, it seems to be from 6th August 2016.

It was available on August 12th, so it's not that new but still the lastest update as of August 25th, excluding the 3.5 community update.

I've certainly noticed battery drain. I'm barely getting 24 hours out of it now, when I was getting about 36. A friend of mine says the same thing and thinks it's to do with dropping off the Wifi a lot.

subjective question and I assume this thread was started because of the other posts you have read. To be honest there are a few of these and honestly as in most things in life its a crap shoot. People complain about things on here that have never happened to me. So in short update or not update the choice is all yours and asking in here will only confuse you more.
By the way guys the Android Pay issue was a Google thing kinda and the update to Android Pay fixed the ability to pay with your phone. That was done some time last week or earlier than that I believe.

I updated to 3.2.4 last night and Android Pay didn't work for me today. See my update below. It does work .
Edit >>> I think the issue may be on my side due to an updated debit card. Will confirm later whether Google Pay now works for me.
Update >> Yep. It was my card.. Android Pay works fine. And, I'm posting this on a solid LTE full-bar connection. Glad I took the plunge.

Well said. Every same model phone differs in behavior with firmware updates. And in every phone forum I have seen a million of the same threads for these same reasons.
Now on to the question:
It is a crapshoot, so the only way to find out is to install. If you don't like it, roll back an update. Oneplus had every firmware they have released on their site. On 3.5 my better isn't as good, but I like the feature set and looks, but had none of the problems others have had on 3.2.4.

Ever since I've upgraded to 3.2.4 I've had an issue with music playback stopping after a few minutes with the screen locked. I reverted back to the previous OTA but the problem persists. Prior to updating to 3.2.4 I never had this issue with any of the updates.
Any ideas? I don't have any app-killing apps installed.

I personally have no problems with it, battery and reception is great. Got the phone 4 days ago, updated right out of the box then flashed superSU and Xposed.

Indeed. Atleast with Spotify and Soundcloud.
With Spotify, it'll stop after a song. Once the device is unlocked, the next song will immediately begin playing automatically.
With Soundcloud, it'll just completely stop mid-song.
Like I mentioned, I don't have any battery-saving apps installed. Battery saver mode is disabled. Restricted background data is disabled both globally and in app permissions. Really strange...

Question Wi-Fi going off and on. Happening to several Pixel 6's

I know there were a bunch of topics on this earlier in the year but I have yet to find a solution and here's the weird thing...
I have a P6 Pro (Android 12.1) coworker has a P6 (Android 13) and both of us when at home (different homes lol) will have the Wi-Fi turn off, and a few seconds later turn back on again.
The problem for both of us started about a month ago. This is way too coincidental. Neither of us had this problem before and since we are on two separate but similar phones running two different versions of Android could this be a Google connectivity related app that is causing this problem? Maybe a bad update to something?
Btw I've tried all the fixes mentioned in previous posts. Everything but a factory reset and nothing has worked. It only happens once or two a day but it's annoying

I noticed that as well during the last couple of weeks. This wasn't happening before for sure. Still no idea what's causing it.

Thank you. The Google Connectivity Service app that helps manage Wi-Fi was updated about a month ago.
Since we all have different versions I'm thinking this has to be app related. Nothing else makes sense

I had the same issue back on 12.1 on my P4a...and oh man did it annoy the sht outta me! I too assumed it was prolly app related. I spent ages trying to chase it down. Then google offered me $300 trade-in plus a pair of Pixel Buds for a P6a...suddenly I just stopped looking.

Modem firmware isn't relevant to wifi.

I don't want to jinx it but after happening to me every day for a few weeks it stopped. Been a week now with no changes made on my end.
This had to be a Google app. They are always getting updated and not always for the better
