Hey guys,
I just picked up an Atrix HD and I plan on unlocking and using it on T-Mobile.
I did a search and couldn't find any info - is it possible to get T-mobile Wifi Calling working on this phone? I've heard that the app is device specific, but since we share the same chipset with the Galaxy SIII which has wifi calling, would it be possible to port it from that or something?
Thanks!
Are you talking about VOIP? Like vonnage?

I was referring to this:
http://t-mobile-coverage.t-mobile.com/4g-wireless-broadband-service
More details:
http://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-1680#How_WiFi_Calling_works
I've read something about a kineto.apk as being the base of wifi calling, but I'm not sure if this is something doable.
Does nobody know if this is possible? Would the newly unlocked bootloader help with this?

To tell you the truth that is about 99% impossible at this moment. There are bounties for other devices that start from $1000 up to $10,000 to get this working on non tmobile devices so you do the math on how hard is to make this work.

Read the post at the url below. It describes how to get updates from Motorola cloud servers. It might be useful in getting unlocks for other phones. Please spread the word to anyone interested in an unlock for Motorola Android phones with Blur.

you can see all the Motorola cloud stuff by going to testing and Motorola services. *#*#4636#*#* in the dialer gets you to testing. Don't know if this has any usefulness to it just thought id share.

I hope root comes for the phone soon, the amount of VZW crap ware is crazy.
Has anyone tried z4 to see what happens?
I'm sure it doesn't work cause if its that simple we would be rooted

all of the available root options have been tried by various members of this forum and others as well. its probably going to be a while before we get root.

Time is what it takes, and it has to be made worthwhile for devs to spend their time on it. ICS is coming and lets face it many will be looking to that as the next great frontier.
I know from various forums that with the confirmed members who will put up enough coin a ambitious dev would get enough to easily pay for a D3.
Can the Droid 3 be used on T-Mobile if unlocked or rooted? I ask because I noticed a SIM card slot. Thanks..
So I called the number off this link below and they claim they can unlock the Droid 3 for AT&T and it would work on 3g. Also, they can do the same for T-Mobile but it would only work on Edge. Can anyone confirm this? Has anyone dealt with this site before? Thanks.

so i dont know but ive been derpin around and noticed a couple things....first off apparently there is a sdk that has been updated for the droid 3 over at MOTODEV site....i was looking through some settings and enabled data encryption which required a boot into some sort of recovery where the internal disk obviously allowed -rw access inwhich i was wondering if it would be possible to dump this process through ADB (maybe find handshake)....and a simple ls command thru term reveals bloatware galore
Have we looked at te exploit that the nexus users are using? They can root 2.3.3, 2.3.4, and now 2.3.5. Seems we should use their exploit if possible

Unlocked bootloader makes rooting easier. What works for them (unlocked) will not work for the Droid 3 (locked bootloader).

They say it's the XT860 which is technically not the droid 3 but the non CDMA version of it being deployed by Bell Canada (which should be easy enough to unlock for AT&T and T-Mobile)

Unless it's like the D2G, in which case it's locked from AT&T-Mobile.
Protip: call VZW Global Services and tell them you're going to India (no global plans over there - you have to either not use your phone or rack up a giant bill) and ask for the SIM unlock code. Account has to be in good standing and the device has to be on your line.
If you have 6 months of good standing you can just ask for an unlock with no reason given.

Maybe not factory unlocked, but a seller unlocked of the Bell (Canada) variant?

I know there is someone on this forum with the Bell variant, which obviously doesn't have the death star, most likely that is what this is.
Yeah, almost sure the phones without the branding from ebay are seller-unlocked bell-phones.
Is there any difference in software? What about updates?

it gets less updates... not worth the risk, i saw a guy on moto forum complaining they didnt get the 9/13 update
On a Bell HD right now.
Version : 77:55:18.
Pros :
-No branding
-Very quick to unlock. (less than 5 mins for $19)
-Can turn off LTE
-Usually can be rooted same time as AT&T
-Sometimes can be used on medianet unlimited plan
Cons :
-Slower to get updates (most times, but not always) This is a big one, but not an issue once the bootloader is unlocked.
That's all i can think of right now.
Sent from my MB886 using xda premium
There is a way to turn off LTE on at&t phones, but it needs root.
So that was is only a temporary advantage...
Also I haven't seen any in white?
I have an unlocked Bell Atrix HD with no carrier branding. That is what the seller is selling. Im getting 4g/H+ on T-Mobile

Hi Gabe!
I too got my Atrix HD from "UniqueFlips". My (Bell) Atrix HD is now ROOTED and has an UNLOCKED bootloader. How did you Flash ATT software on your Bell Atrix HD? Where can I download the ATT software?
Thank you!

What is the method to turn off LTE?
Currently JB 4.1.1 with Root
Title pretty much says it all.
Does anyone have a Bell Atrix HD that they are using on AT&T? If so are they able to use the medianet plan undetected?
Thanks
Bump. I too would like to know

Does anyone have T-Mobiles Wifi calling feature on their Atrix HD? I someone got it on their Samsung Infuse which is an At&T phone. I'm switching to T-mobile so i want to be able to use wifi calling.
I've asked this question before and didn't get any feedback.
I would definitely love to have it if someone has it working, but I think the answer is no

Here's the thread from the infuse for reference: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1455264
I would think the best route would be to port from the T-Mobile s3 since it has the same chipset, but I don't know nearly enough to make it happen...

The thing about that is that s3 is on T-Mobile and at&t so you would have to flash the T-Mobile s3 stock rom in order to get wifi calling. There's no atrix HD type phone on T-Mobile.

Hm yeah. I just meant that if somebody was going to try and port it, the s3 is probably the closest configuration T-Mobile device to ours, considering both have MSM8960 chipsets, dual core 1.5ghz krait, and Adreno 225 graphics. If someone wanted to port the Wi-Fi calling app alone to the AHD, the T-Mobile GS3 would probably be the best place to start (again, I'm no expert)

Your right. Sorry. They would basically have to strip down the firmware and implement it as a zip. I really hope someone figures it out. Apparently right now there's a WiFi calling enabling method for non T-Mobile phones but its only for gingerbread and under.

Just use the phones native tethering.
It should be in your settings. No need to do anything else special.
Sent from my SM-N910T using XDA Free mobile app
I have always used Foxfi to tether on custom roms on AT&T phones and have not been detected as long as I only tethered an android tablet. They could detect a Windows PC unless I used a VPN.
I cannot use Foxfi on 5.1.1 roms on the N910T since it gets an error. I can run native tethering and it works fine, but have only done it a little bit since I am kind of wary about being detected - I have already been warned twice already a couple years ago. I, too, wanted to make sure it was undetectable by AT&T if I used the native tethering instead of Foxfi with its proxy.
I unlock my Samsung Note 4 T-Mobile with sim-unlock code, but I've heard that I cannot use this phone with internet 3G, 4G or LTE i'm outside US. And also I need another code to unlock this feature. I cannot check if I can use 3G Internet or not. Somebody knows that for sure?
