You can take that phone anywhere in the world and make phone calls, provided you have roaming or different sim (unlocked phone). 2G or 3G should be fine
In fact in most countries you can make calls even without a sim for emergency.

logically to be able to make a wifi call using t-mo minutes, phone will have t-mo's tailored android OS (a.k.a T-Mo stock). if you are planning to get one this time around, you will need to research whether T-mo will officially carry it &, most important, offer wifi calling feature on that phone. then once some devs get their hands on t-mo versions, perhaps you can flash your non t-mo phone with the right t-mo stock.
Basically my question is on the title...
Im waiting for my unlocked note 8 from samsung directly, i have tmobile, so my question is, will i have full service?
By full service i mean wifi calling VoLTE, voicemail and the rest...
Or we need to do some tweaks? Because since i didnt get it yet, i may switch it before they ship and avoid any headache...
Thanks

All the features came up for me, I don't use WiFi calling so I turned it off. Vmail is fine also.
T-Mobile and Sprint are awesome on unlocked...but if you have issues you can flash either USERDATA of complete carrier Firmware...
Hi,
I've recently purchased. SM-N9600 to use on EE in the UK. It works without issue other than the lack of WiFi calling. I've been reading this forum and can't find a solution to my problem. Somebody mentions rooting it however I am led to believe this will disable Google pay permantely. Is there away of getting the EE carrier firmware on this model? Or away of enabling WiFi calling with disabling Google pay?

With Vodafone I had to call them to enable it, it may be the same with ee.
I will give that a go but I did previously have it working on my iPhone 8 plus....
I don't know about the Note phones, but the Galaxy S series has WiFi calling on EE on non-EE ROMs (eg BTU).
I'm just getting a Note 9 on Vodafone. Hoping it will still have WiFi calling if I switch CSC to BTU. I'm hoping that all I lose is the texts via WiFi calling, which Vodafone don't support.
EE is EVR software see if its available for you model. If it is install it with odin
Thanks for the advise people, any idea if I can get a Evr for the sm-n9600? Or can I use an evr from a different model?
Only way I can get wifi calling to work is turning off volte. Then it connects.
This has been since a few updates back. I'm on EE aswell
Now this Note9 is definitely not what its cracked up to be wish I never got it now to be honest.
Think the oxm_xeu should give uk and Ireland WiFi calling to any network that supports it.
I get WiFi calling with EE Vodafone and three. Also with three when in call I get HD calling.
Have a look on sammobile to see if there is software for your phone.

LOL The most Beast phone available, you think, is not "what it's cracked up to be" but you bought the wrong version?
again, LOL !!!!!
Seriously though, how long have you had it, can you trade it in for the SM-N960F model, that's what you need for the UK and EE if you want to use wifi calling.
The U models all reported to me, when I researched, that you may lose wifi calling.

My Note 9 is smooth and has zero problems, yes, I'm not making it up man. You might have a rouge bad app or something.
These things are incredible! Sorry you're having issues, I'd do a factory if you have any lag at all, and if still there swap it out.
I'm not really new to this. I would always buy the phones, then root them when root was available. My question is if I buy the unlocked version and have it on Verizon, does anyone know what features won't work? Like I believe wifi calling on tmobile won't. But what about Verizon?
I THINK similarly, HD calling and Wifi calling won't work. I remember this from other discussions of unlocked Galaxy devices on Verizon.

Ok, thanks.... That is the problem I'm having cause I don't know about that part. Like I said, I normally just buy the phones then root them when root is available, but the s8 never got it or it took so long I didn't worry about it anymore. But I'm going overseas soon and would like to just swap sims and not worry about international charges
HD calling and volte should work. wifi calling a visual voicemail won't. check Samsungs page for compatibility.
my pixel 2 unlocked has EVERYTHING working on Verizon tho. dunno why.

Features you lose with unlocked phone on verizon network.
Visual Voicemail (VVM)
LTE Video Calling
Enhanced Address Book
VoWiFi (WiFi calling)
Family Base
Family Locator
that's worth it. no big deal except maybe wifi calling.

no way, cellular trash store will offer you phone with unlocked bootloader.

I have an unlocked S9+ on Verizon prepaid. Everything works fine including VoLTE and WiFi Calling. The only thing that doesn't is Visual Voicemail, but that's because I'm on prepaid. I'm sure the S10 will be the same.

Does Video Calling work on the unlocked s9+ on Verizon?
My unlocked note 9 on Verizon didn't have any features except HD calling and VoLTE. I worked with Verizon tech support forever, they couldn't figure it out. They indicated it was a Samsung issue. Samsung said it was a Verizon issue. I sold it on swappa then got a Verizon branded one because I need WiFi calling and texting.
I really hope my unlocked S10 plus isn't the same.

You could've flashed the VZ fw onto the U1. I converted my TMO Note to U1/XAA for better battery. Knox isn't tripped by signed packages.

I think Video Calling and Visual Voice Mail are for Post-Paid accounts only. I'm on Pre-Paid.
Plus I can use one of several other apps to video call, so I don't miss it. VoLTE and WiFi calling work great.
I can confirm that Wi-Fi calling IS indeed working on my unlocked S10+ on Verizon. Imagine that! The only thing I'm missing is Verizon's native video calling but that feature is so useless that it's not even worth mentioning.
Also, this thread is helpful describing all the features that work on Verizon:

I can't see anything different between the unlocked RP2 and the ATT RP2... since the Unlocked version works on the ATT network, would it cause issues to use the updated MR1 image for 9.0 on this phone?

I have WiFi calling but not video.
I'm on the Global firmware, no issues. Wifi calling is provisioned, but after a lengthy chat with AT&T, was told that the Razer Phone 2 is not compatible on their network for wifi calling. Yet when going to their site and sorting by phones capable of wifi calling, the phone is listed. I may or may not have yelled at them and told them to take it off the list.

Yea, I don't understand them. Most of the carriers just get in their own way so much.
