Currently use a Nexus 5 and waiting to see if Android L brings native T-Mobile Wi-Fi calling. Also thinking of the Nexus 6 if that might include wi-fi calling on T-Mobile. I know hangouts will do wi-fi calling through GV, but I'm not interested in that at the moment. I think the next best option for me if Android L doesnt bring native wifi calling to the N5 or N6, would be the G3 on T-Mobile but I hate the carrier bloat. Are there any stock roms that remove all of this and keep the wi-fi calling?

No. The G3 has nearly no bloat...just need to kill CarrierIQ with a flash. Wifi calling is a TMO exclusive and you must buy the TMO version of the phone.

Id also like to get rid of the skin and just use something like an AOSP rom. Is that possible?
I'm looking for ROMs for the Samsung GS4 (SGH-M919)
I understand that any ROM with Wi-Fi Calling support is going to be TouchWiz based, and pretty close to stock. That is OK, I'm just trying to create a list of the available options.
Is there any way to formulate a search on this board that would identify candidate ROMs that support Wi-Fi Calling? Or has anyone compiled a list? It would be great if there was some type of tag (like WFC) that was universally used that could help with searches.
I am aware of WarpDrive <http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2682608>. Are there any others?

If you just want to get rid of bloat you can uninstall almost every app without root. Just a fyi gs4 roms will not work and tmobile has had native wifi calling for quite some time.
I've got mine rooted and have removed all the bloat. Very minimal skin imo and with a little theming the g3 looks pretty close to stock. They have their features but I feel as if they aren't as intrusive and don't change the overall feel. Get the Tmobile based g3 and you've got something very close to stock and wifi calling. I love it and like the g3 skin with the speedscript, g3 tweak box, and an android L theme. Like it better than aosp surprisingly. But that is just one man's opinion.

I don't think you know how wifi calling works. Wifi calling comes exclusive with all t mobile phones. You don't need android l to get wifi calling, what you need is a t mobile phone. Doesn't matter what t mobile phone you pick they all come with that feature
I researched this a while back. Wifi calling as a term is a confusing one with a variety of interpretations. However, the TMO interpretation is key here and unfortunately for the OP, it's not good news:
T-Mobile's flavor of wifi calling is a proprietary add-on. Put simply, if you are on TMO and want wifi calling, you need the official TMO ROM on that phone. Maybe this will change as we see more carriers introduce this tech next year.
Regarding bloat wear, I have to say I don't think LG has put much bloat on this phone and what crap there is, is minimal compared to the power of the phone itself. But that is subjective and based on my experience of several custom ROMs and always going back to stock.
Just got myself a G3, rooted, TWRP is on.
Was looking at Blisspop, it's gorgeous but no wifi calling it seems. What's closest to that looks wise and stable that also has wifi calling?
Nothing

The stock 20E really fixed the WiFi calling for me (20B was terrible, WiFi calling always erroring out).
I'd personally just flash 20E, root, and tweak it to how you like.
Searching for a room that currently supports wifi calling and volte on Verizon. I've looked through the forums but only seems a few mentions of it.
I am not aware of any custom rom that supports Verizon Wifi calling. I believe that after the January or February google security updates, verizon wifi calling became non-functional due to some conflict. I've tried virtually all of the custom roms in May and none support wifi calling. Accordingly, I'm back on stock.
Hi,
Per above, want to share 7T's wifi connection - travel often, hotels often restrict number of devices, also, roaming offices usually provide 1 wifi access too. WOuld like to share using the inbuilt hotspot.
I know Pixels and Samsungs are capable out of the box.
What are my choices on the 7T? I can see a wifi extend feature in dev. settings, but that doesnt seem to work.
Has anyone got an easy way to manage wifi-direct?
thanks
7T
Got same issue and kinda disappointed because i came from s9+ and Xiaomi MI 9T Pro and no issue like this.
P.S. hope someone have solution about this wifi hotspot
If rooted, this app can be used to share wifi.

You'll want to use the "repeater" mode.
I've tried both LineageOS and Pixel Experience but can't get Wi-Fi calling to work with T-Mobile pre-paid.
The only ROM that works is the stock ROM.
I've read on-line that that custom ROMS for the Nexus 5X is very hit or miss on Wi-Fi calling.
Anyone know of any custom ROMs that work with T-Mobile pre-paid Wi-Fi calling?
