I have an EVO with Sprint and I am thinking of getting a Tab. I am assuming that the Tab will just add an additional line to my current account, but what I was wondering is it possible to "link" by EVO and Tab together for things like texting? It would be great if I could have text messages sent to my main phone number (EVO) but still have them show up on my Tab and be able to respond to them from there if I am using it at the time. If this can't be done directly through Sprint are there any apps that can do something similar to this?
Does anyone also know if since I already have a data plan for my EVO if I need a different plan for the Tab on Sprint?
Thanks,
-Eric
The new Skype app allows for 3G calling, will this finally enable us to use our tabs as phones or is there a hangup you can see with Skype?

I can't seem to download or install it Is there a version someone can upload that will work? Its supposed to be an International version..
I have downloaded it from market after un-installing the previous version and it allows calling over 3G on my Galaxy Tab.
I have noticed that if you just install skype and don't restart your phone or tablet it will keep running in background.
Can anyone verify my theory?
BELAY THAT!!!
Skype now allows calls over 3G? It's actually useful now!
3G working great
It really has made a huge difference because it is actually useful now
Does anyone know if there is a work around to make Skype work after changing the DPI to 182?
I really hate to start this back up about enabling phone support on sch-i800. But the lack of post/info about it is very annoying. We know that hardware is there to make it work. But how far is the software limiting us on this fact? I myself have mine on a voice plan with Page Plus and could in theory make call's if I can get the tab to support it. I have made it as far to get the Tab it self activated and programmed onto Page Plus, and Framework-res.apk edit for the dialer to show. But when it trys to call out it just shut's the call down and I'm back at the dialer. If anyone could shed a little light my way I would be grateful. Anymore apk's i should edit? more in the framework somewhere? Any info guys ? I have full service and 3g perfect on this thing.
CM10 with dialer from framework edit.

Hey Haxz...I grabbed just a 3rd party dialer..and it tries to make a call..and closes...I was wondering if you ever found a way in to Diag Mode on CM10 so edits can be done such as web settings and prl updates with qpst...I have mine running Cricket...Thanks..
Actually I was able to get into diag mode using a command line in terminal emulator. Looks like original post was by autoprime I think, so thanks to him. This line worked for me. echo MODEM USB > /sys/class/sec/switch/usb_sel. I was running cm9 roms also.

I found 2 scripts in the Sprint section that click click and you can switch between PDA and Modem..But one thing....I can get web settings to work under GB but no ICS/Jelly Bean Roms will work with Data period..I have re-checked the settings dozens of times..and nothing...One thing just in case you need the info...To change APN settings...I had to use the Sprint modem file...If you try to write in qpst with the Verizon modem file the settings won't take..Thanks for the response on it...
This thread is a few months old but I wanted to post that apparently the trick to getting voice back is to replace the modem.bin from a samsung fascinate because it's the same dialer hardware.
I haven't done this as it's beyond my abilities but I've read it elsewhere.
If anyone successfully tests this, perhaps they can make a clockworkmod zip file that we can flash over cm10.1
Is there a way of getting the regular S3 dialer with the 3g video call icon (bottom left) to work on KITKAT or any other ROM for that matter? the stock rom i had didnt have it and neither does ProBAMS KitKat... is it not supported on the SC-03E?
any clues? though id as before i started to flash roms just to see if there is a dialer with the 3g video call icon...
ps, i asked this as a question in another guys thread but i got no answer so i thought id make a new thread
No idea of the SC-03E features but if it is not there with a stock rom then I guess it is not supported for that model.

i just found out this is not the right phone forum for my question as i thought the I9305 has the same specs as mine but i was thinking maybe i could get the dialer.apk or the phone.apk from a S3 that supports it...i just hope its just a software problem... the I9305 does support 3g vieo calling right?

Yes i9305 does support 3g video calling.
What about in contacts. When you select a contact does a video call option show?
---------- Post added at 11:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:01 AM ----------
If you do have the option for video call in contacts then you will need to edit a layout in seccontacts to show video call in dialer. Someone may already have done this in the right forum section though

No i doesnt...thats the problem, so maybe contacts, phone and dialer apk has to be flashed at the same time. problem is im not that good to start messing with a rom that way yet hehe. I asked the question in the Jap s3 thread but no replies on it ...so i might try if anyone could give me a hint on how it would be done...and the i9305 is the closest in hardware, its almost identical
You could try seccontacts and secphone apks for touchwiz or phone and contacts apks from an i9305 rom of the same android version and type, doesnt need to be copied into system/app at the same time though. Just have a back up of your originals so you can revert back if doesnt work.

ok ill download a kitkat rom for the i 9305 and try Whats the difference between sec and nonsec apks?
wouldnt i need the dialer apk as well for the video call button?
Sec are samsungs apks so seccontacts, seclauncher etc. Aosp, cm etc usually arr just contacts, phone etc. Dialer is a part of contacts so you only need contacts and phone apks

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2529444
Can anybody give me a link to a i9305 kitkat rom that supports 3g video calling (small icon in the bottom left in the dialer and in contacts, in ICS/JB), i cant try it myself as i dont have a i9305. i just want to ""steal" some apks and try something
No go... from what I read and barely understand, there are also limitations on the carrier side of things. There is Hangout (gTalk) work around but you need a US number.
So silly... why not bring this "old" feature back?

I skimmed through the links you posted and as i mentioned before most phones dont support it. But the galaxy range (international) does support it. Dont you think it would be a fairly easy experiment to "steal" the apks from a S3 supporting video call and just try it on a SC-03E? im saying fairly easy for someone with ROM cooking or android dev knowlege Im willing to use my S3 as a testdummy if anyone is willing to tell me what to do and how...My carrier Globe in the Philippines does supports native 3g video calling as i tried it on my older samsung clone calling a samsung galaxy s2
Any success with 3G call button?
Hi,
Where you able to get the 3G call button? Even I am searching for some help with getting the 3G video call button that was earlier available in my SGS3. Really liked that quality compared to skype and hangout video calls (may be due to operator settings).
Regards,
Girish
Hi friends and colleagues of this great forum. I want to make a query. Currently I am with the ROM Stock B136, and wanted to ask if as was the case with the Samsung Galaxy SII, you may make from the phone itself, to record calls. I found that modifying the build.prop "ro.config.hw_voicerecord = true" Now I get that option appears on the menu during the performance of the call; but an error message appears. Missing files include libraries or change phone applications and agenda? Thank you

Yes...it's possible and you have done half of the step:
