I bought a refurbished Note 3, rooted it (4.3 MJ5) and switch it to straight-talk/att service. I love the phone..but it shows that I have 4G even when I don't. Is there anyway to remove this to show my true signal strength?
If your rooted download xposed and look for the module that says stock international data icons for Samsung.

With the new update every time I press the wifi calling app in my launcher it says "permission denied" in a toast message and does nothing. And the menu in settings refuses to turn on. What am I missing?

Ask I got wifi calling itself to work in the settings and through the dialer by un-freezing self service. But the "app" still dies nothing and displays a "permission denied" toast message

Yeah, I'm getting the same toast notification, even though I have it all good to go in Settings.
Edit: I'm on InsertCoin 4.0.4, by the way.

Hope someone can help us. WiFi calling has been raping my battery, going crazy with wakelocks, with it disabled in settings as well. Can't even open the damn thing.

Sprint is now offering wifi calling or are you guys using tmobile? If you are using Tmo, are able to get 4G with the sprint m8? Is there a forum to be able to change basebands on this M8?

This has happened on a few VZW phones and the only way to fix is to flash a stock rom/reactivate. So... yeah.

I am not rooted if that makes a difference.
So I would need to factory reset and then get with Verizon to reactivate the SIM?

Go into settings then SMS then access point names. I use T-Mobile and for some reason metropcs was selected. Try to select the AP that fits your carrier

APNs are set by the SIM on Verizon, this is neither an option nor needed.
The APN setting that needs to be changed is within google hangouts

I wasn't using Hangouts, but I tried it. The APN was already set to VZW (there were a dozen APNs in settings, but all the same). I tried it on LTE, but still no dice.

It has to deal with the activation, i'm sure. This has happened to me once or twice on my N2 and S3. I had to reflash back to a completely stock FW, reactivate, and flash back. No clue how it works, but it sounds like it happens when activating the phone. If this happens, there might not be a fix since there is no VZW FW/activation/etc. I spent ages playing in APN and cell settings (the hidden one in dialer.)
Try this, send a text, let it hang, and then toggle LTE off and then back to on again. If it sends, this issue is most likely very similar to those other issues on Samsung.

I can think of ways to do it if you are rooted, but not without. If you have already manually configured your apn settings and it won't toggle on, it's likely that your sol.
Why you are using a locked-down vzw variant on T-mobile is the real question. Freebie?

For some reason I'm not receiving calls. If I reboot my phone it'll work fine, but I don't know for how long unless someone leaves a vm. I have no idea what's causing it, nothing has really changed but I also don't know how long I've been having the problem. I'm running pure nexus rom and Franco kernel if it makes any difference. Any ideas?

Are you talking about Settings > Wireless & Networks > More > Cellular Networks > Preferred Network Type? That's already set to LTE.

What carrier and is this while you're on WiFi?
AT&T and I'm not sure.. I know that it's happened when I've been on wifi, however I can't say it's always the case since I don't necessarily know I missed a call.
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app
On Verizon I only saw this on the 5.0-5.1 builds using VOLTE. Turned off VOLTE and all was good. Not seeing it now on 5.1.1 stock. If running ASOP no telling.
I had the same issue with a G3, but can't remember anything about it or how I fixed it.

I found that the modem/radio I'm using is for t-mobile and wifi calling, so that could be the issue. It's questionable though since it does work, just not always. You'd think if I had the wrong modem it just wouldn't work.
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app
When running a rom these type problems should be posted in the rom thread. Once move from stock we have no option but to have you return to stock to troubleshoot. Once the base system is modified we have no way to troubleshoot it. I run stock rooted with kernel. If something broke it Google or the kernel. You have rom that could be many things. Bad flash, Dirty flash. ect.

Actually, that's to be expected. Every build will work with every carrier, just certain features won't work. Updates are based on your sim.

I tried a stock rom for testing and it seemed to work, but since I don't always know when I miss a call it's incredibly hard to narrow down. It works every time I call it, so it seems completely random that it doesn't work.

Yes it should work. The differences in the builds are in the telephony and ril builds of the software.
