Wifi calling is a t-mobile exclusive as far as I know. You may have some luck with one of these http://www.rebtel.com/en/International-Calling-Guide/Mobile-Apps/Top-5-apps-for-WiFi-Calling-in-2013/

Naw sprint said g flex is one of the phones that can do it

Sprint lied! Wi-Fi calling app is exclusive to T-Mobile and is integrated in the framework on the T-Mobile phone. Therefore can't just be installed on another phone.
Now there are other options like Google voice or another 3rd party app. You can download then off the playstore. They'll allow you to make phone calls over Wi-Fi, but give you a new number as well.

Hey i learned something new today. Sprint did start offering Wi-Fi calling in Feb it was exclusive to T-Mobile for a long time; however he still lied to you because the only phones that are showing capable are the mega, s4 mini, note 3, s4

If you want to confirm though open you phone app and then settings. If you have it there should be a Wi-Fi calling option

Sorry they added the one max
Sent from my LG-D959 using Tapatalk

Wow since February and that's all the phones that will work? Not even the S5, that's tough

That's actually pretty impressive (surprised about the s5), but if it's like T-Mobile version it is very integrated into the framework

yeah surprised me too. Good for them to finally get rid of that ridiculous airave.

[AT&T USERS] 4.2.2 Stops LTE from working!

Early reports state LTE doesn't stick.

Those of you on AT&T might want to wait/flash the older radio.
Sounds like if you have root you can flash 4.2.1 radio to get it back though.

Yes they will stick on the LTE/GSM, LTE/XXX settings, but you won't get a LTE connection from those settings.
Bummer but since I have no LTE in my area no biggie

I got this official answer from Google Regarding LTE incompatibility on new radio.
"Nexus 4 hardware and software were not designed to be compatible with LTE, and future LTE capability on today's Nexus 4 will not be possible because of hardware and software incompatibilities. We've heard reports that some users have reconfigured their Nexus 4 to enable LTE under rare circumstances, but it is uncertified and unsupported."
I live in an ATT area, but Not in one that has a frequency that works on the N4, so it's good to see you guys brought back to earth lol. JK that sucks wish I could use LTE

It suck big time. Especially since you buy something knowing LTE can be turned on and then the company that made a device that's so open to everyone, now makes an update specifically fuking up the LTE.
This is exactly what Apple would do, nice going Google

Keeps asking me about wifi

how do i stop my htc one from asking me all the time if i want to connect to any available wifi networks, especially if they're all locked. when im at home it doesnt ask me because its saved my wifi here. but when i go to work and i get on the internet itll always ask if i want to join any of the connections..and then itll ask me again a few hours later. how do i stop this from happening so much?
Turn off WiFi when none are available that you can connect too

ah, that second solution seems like it will work. thanks! one more question. in the settings i see some options, but these two specifically:
network notification: notify me when an open network is available
wifi network notification: tell me when networks are available.
i have the first one checked, not the second one..but what are the diferences between the two? they read like they do the same thing?
First one notifys you if there is a unsecured WiFi available like at McDonald's or any place that offers free WiFi the second one notifys you of any WiFi connection

How do you activate wifi hotspot

It has been a while since I have had a phone that isnt easily rootable. Ive tried foxfi and anoyher app but neither work. What is the modern day way of enabling hotspot on at&t without root?

This doesn't work for me. It does not allow it and gives me an error message that tells me to contact att.
Contact AT&T and they enable the device for use. Take ten minutes.
I believe it depends on what plan you have. I have the old 2gb plan, don't think hotspot is included.
hmmm didnt' think of that I'm part of a 15 GB family plan that must include hotspotting. I'm really then not sure how you can overcome that att been pretty good at locking features I guess gonna have to wait for a Costome rom to come through Flashfire to do it.

Okay so I took your advice, took 10 minutes and called AT&T. They told me that my plan on my company phone is a unlimited data plan that is grandfathered. So there is no hotspot enabled on my phone. This is why I wanted root acces. But now I can't figure out how to enable it again on this new phone.

Same for me. Unlimited data means no hotspot.
Hi, folks, has anyone come across a post-root hotspot enabler?
CleanRom has a tether enabler add-on. Check that thread in the Development section

So just had to come back and share. Finally activated my wifi hotspot with the grandfathered plan! Take that ATT!!!
The way I was finally able to do it is thru Xtrestolite Deodexed unified ROM. Once I flashed it with Flashfire, hot spot started working!
Love the ROM. Much sleeker, faster and completely debloated.
Just wanted to share.

the rom you mentioned doesn't show support for ATT phone. you sure it works?

Did you update Flashfire?
I have just been using it like that. They haven't contacted me yet, so i'll keep using it like normal until they do. I had an HTC that I enabled hotspot with and used it like that for over two years without any word from att. Your mileage may vary...
whenever I used it with my HTC M7 they contact me and warn me they would remove my unlimited plan... maybe cuz sometimes I download large torrents while on travel? haha. how much data usage you use in tether?

I have watched movies on tether. I think it has to do with the torrents. I've done netflix. My data usage is over 12gb each month.

How to tell if the BOOTLOADER is Unlocked?

I know there's a lot of speculation after the S7 and S7 Edge where locked on T-Mobile that they know 7 will also be locked on T-Mobile. I've made numerous calls to T-Mobile and to Samsung. In the end 8ts anybody's guess right now. I have had every Note since Note 2 and have ALL been Rooted. When my phone gets delivered in the next hour or two I was wondering if there's any way I can check myself to see if the bootloader is unlocked?

Lol I was wondering the same thing. How do you really know if it's unlocked or not?

According to Chainfire on cf-auto-root. They said on the site that they routed the international version to go ahead and try it on the T-Mobile. If it's locked it won't flash if it's unlocked it will Flash

I'm no dev, but I don't think it's locked. I booted into recovery mode, and rebooted to bootloader, and it was ready to download. Like you would to flash odin.
If it's unlocked you'll be able to flash anything if it's locked you can always flash Samsung stuff with the signature

Hey don't say free internet. The call is carried out without internet and now the Internet is paid.
The Redmi & Samsung dialers support this feature of calling over the LTE band and the video call can be carried out without Mobile Data or Wifi enabled.
