AT&T Videocall...

Hi all...
Is it possible to make videcalls with AT&T tilt using only back cam?
I've read that there is no hardware permission to do it...
Is it true?
Thanks a lot...

I can only say from the carrier perspective that if it is possible you'd better have the correct plan to allow it or else you'll get charged up the yahoo ...... sorry

AT&T does not support video calls. It never worked on my Hermes and I tested with someone who had it working in Europe.
Later, Lew

Oh my GOD...
Do you think that is possible to do it with some particular ROM or is there an hardware difference with the HTC?

NOPE. It will try to connect to a server you don't & can't have access to from the AT&T net.

I'm using it with Italian 3 3G Operator. Videocall is supported. I tried to do it with a friend: i saw him but don't saw me.
I think that if i'll be able to active he back cam during a videocall it will work.
Exist a specific software that do it?

it actually does support video calls, just only in select areas and on special phones.

It would only be possible to do so if AT&T was propositioned to do so by the NSA.

N1 Orange UK UMA?

Would any dev's be able to integrate this into CM7 or something standalone? Its such an important feature it would be incredible to have.
Seems http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1208830 have had a bit of luck with the SGII. I know the N1 doesn't support UMA but AFAIK its software based, and we didn't have an FM radio or 720p to start with either!
Any thoughts?

There is the wifi calling app, but I know that was originally just for T-Mobile phones in the states. I am not sure if it works with other UMA-enabled operators. I know it originally started out on xda, but I am not positive on the link, but I think they have their own site now and it is here http://unforgivendevelopment.com/ It is blocked at work, so I can't verify it.

I came across them too, but for Orange UK it would require their specific app and some specific tunneling to work.

Anyone?....

Xperia Z(c6603) : LTE on AT&T by ZL(c6506) baseband method.

I have been following the "LTE in Canada" thread, but I haven't seen any confirmation of this working on AT&T. Is there anyone out there that has this working pn their AT&T service? Screen shots of speed tests, please!
If it is not possible to do this for AT&T like it is for Rogers and Fido, can someone please explain why not?
Thank you. I kno the T-Mo xperia z(6606) is out, but it is network locked.

Ok two points to make -
1. Dont post questions in General, thread now moved to Q&A.
2. If you recive an answer that you dont agree with, then it's best to ignore the said answer and move on, lets behave in a more mature manner please.
Thanks

Need to be sure it works before I buy the phone.

I tried, so far I cannot make LTE work with either TMOBILE or ATT...
Looks like the baseband from zl cannot work on both.

I also tried baseband from C6506. It didn't work on both t-mo and at&t even though it says support LTE band 1, 2, 4, 5 and 17.

no updates on this? I have CM10.2 with my c6603 what basebands should I try?

First time Nexus owner, few simple questions.

Just switched to tmo and purchased a 64gb Nexus 6 from Motorola. Should be here next week.
I had a few device & carrier questions being this is my first Nexus device (besides tablets)
I will be using this device on T-Mobile but it's from the Moto store.
Who will I be getting updates from? T Mobile or Google directly?
I plan on flashing a custom rom (most likely Pure Shamu from what I've gathered) being that one model of nexus supports all carriers (radios).. I read that T-Mobile will be pushing an update to support wifi-calling (which I need in my home). Will that work on my particular device or is there a specific T-Mobile Nexus that I'd need?
Lastly, I do use wifi tether quite a bit, and on my current devices rom they have the unlimited wifi tether hack.
Is that something built into a rom or has to be done separately?
Thanks for any help that can be given.

Oh, forgot one question.
Also read up on the encryption ordeal.
I don't need that on my device but is there any benefit to have it or not have it enabled?
Again, thank you.

Nexus is GSM unlocked and should theoretically work on all carriers out of the box. I bought mine from the motorola store and is working without any problems.
Updates come from google directly.
If you want to use Wifi calling, I believe that you do have to be running stock firmware, nobody will know for sure until it gets released.
I believe Shamu allows you to bypass the tether limit. I'm currently using CM 12 and tethering doesn't count towards my tethering limit.
The only benefit of not having encryption enabled is faster boot times.

If you root your phone, you can add the hack yourself. I am on a stock rom, and my grandfathered data plan has no tethering allotment, but i can tether to my heart's content. I copied this from another thread:
I was able to work around the issue by modifying the following sqlite database (you'll need root):
/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
You need to add a new entry to the global table called "tether_dun_required" with a value of 0.
It looks like you need to do this because some configuration data was added to Android for T-mobile that forwards tethered data to this APN: pcweb.tmobile.com
T-mobile is probably checking to see if your account has tethering enabled when you go through this APN.
After I made this change I also needed to change my APN settings so that it uses ipv4 instead of ipv6. It seems like tethering with ipv6 does not work 100% yet.
I hope this helps.

Definitely rooting and most like run a stockish custom rom. Hoping that's built in if not I'll take a look into that.
Most of the custom roms I've run on t-mobile have that built in and are preset to ipv 4 not 6 for that exact reason.
Appreciate the help from a fellow Paisan from NY. Long Island here, work in NYC

What line of work are you in?

Do these features work on the unlocked Note8 on Verizon?

- WiFi Calling
- HD Calling
- Video Calling
- VoLTE
I figure since people have had the phone for a few days now, maybe there is a definitive answer to be had. I contacted Verizon and they said that WiFi calling and HD calling will not work and that an unlocked phone will remove these features from my account. But, Verizon did say that VoLTE and Video calling will work. I contacted Samsung support and they said that all 4 features will work but that I would need to contact Verizon to enable the features on their end. Seems like a runaround.
Is there anyone with the unlocked variant and Verizon that can confirm what does and doesn't work? Thanks!

I do not have any of those working. I will try calling Verizon. I really want VoLTE/HD calling to work.

Yes it works. I had called someone in Verizon and he went through line by line, updated something called mpas or empass,and then I had to restart my phone to get it active. Finally worked after talking to 3 different people. Ask to speak to a level 2 tech if the first guy doesn't get it

Thanks, MACHEK. Which of the features are you referring to? All of them? Or, specific ones? Thanks.

You're the first that I've heard that Wifi calling has worked, that's great to hear! I'll make sure to get escalated when my Unlocked finally comes.

Yeah I had my phone on airplane mode just to check and only had Wi-Fi. Received texts, calls etc no problem. HD calling works too. I tried to reach out to my contact at Verizon for a real good description of what he checked but he hasn't replied yet. It took him a good 15 minutes but eventually he got it. He said he went line by line to double check each setting.

Thanks again, MACHEK. If your contact gets back to you can you please reply here with the info so I and others know what to ask for when calling Verizon to get these features working on our unlocked phones?
Mr. Toad - Since you're calling tomorrow, if you get any specifics can you please post it as well?
Thanks!

Yes, if you do hear back, please post with what was necessary to turn on, I'm so glad that wifi calling works, that was the last piece which I was worried about from reading other threads.

Just some screenshots of it (on a side note it's annoying my theme isn't dark on that one setting, seems odd looking)

Looks like they also changed your statusbar. Verizon's 4G letters are like that.
Can you check if your hotspot works without a subscription prompt?

Wow sorry guys I just realized you guys are talking about the non snapdragon version? I missed that part in the original post, but to be honest, a few people even with snapdragon are having this problem of getting it set up so I wouldn't give it up.

I'm taking about the snapdragon US unlocked variant so please update when you have the details, thanks again!

Yeah, I think we're all probably talking about the snapdragon US unlocked variant. So, MACHEK, I think you're info is still good, correct?

just by looking at his statusbar, I believe he doesn't have an unlocked version.
He must have the Verizon carrier specific Note 8.
