Hello,
Is there any one using the ATT GS5 on Tmobile network (obviously Tmobile SIM) with wifi calling working ? (Please..please.. I know ATT does not have wifi calling, But if you use a Tmobile Rom with Tmobile sim, you expect to have it working) !!
If yes, would you please share which ROM you are using ? Also if there is a trick to make it wok please share it?
Thanks
no luck so far
This is not a solution, I just wanted to report what I have tried so far.
I have a G900A with a t-mobile SIM card. I called TMO to make sure wifi calling was enabled on my line. I used towelroot + safestrap to install the t-mobile Alliance rom (B4), as well as the latest stock TMO rom. So far, wifi calling does not work. It is always stuck on "Enabling" in the calling options menu. VoLTE doesn't work either, but I wasn't expecting it to. My guess is that there is something in the TMO baseband that makes these things work and that ATT phones don't have.
Any hints and ideas would me much appreciated!

JJ here,
I tried this ROM - [ROM] G900TUVU1BNH5 ported from TMobile, rooted, deodexed, no knox, Download Booster
... everything works, nice and smooth, but the Wifi Calling is stuck "Enabling"...
Same boat.
My att s5 is unlocked and on the tmobile network. Your telling me i can flash the tmobile stock rom? And everything will be working properly, except wifi calling?

Will everything else work properly? I mainly need the t mobile stock rom to enable mobile hotspot, I have an ATT phone and do not wish to trip efuse. Thanks
does anyone know if the same issue will happen with the international version?
On a similar topic, my dad has a AT&T Samsung Galaxy S5 which was sold in Malaysia. And I found out that his phone was not able to hotspot. I have downloaded the official firmware of Samsung Galaxy S5 for Malaysia and was going to use Odin to flash the firmware into his phone. Does that work and not brick the phone? The phone seems to be unlocked as it can be used here except the firmware and the phone is AT&T barnded. Any advise? Thanks

It all works!
Guys, I have some great news. Both wifi calling AND VoLTE now work on my SM-G900A on the T-mobile network. Here is what I did:
I installed the latest ATT firmware (OA1), released earlier this February. OTA update did not work, so I had to flash the original firmware (ANCE) via Odin, and then flash the two subsequent updates using update.zip on the SD Card. This will remove safestrap and root, but fear not.
Once my phone had AO1 installed, I used this tutorial to root the phone again. It invonves temporarily flashing an earlier (ND3) kernel, using TowelRoot, and then reflashing the OA1 kernel
With my OA1 rooted, I installed safestrap. Make sure you install busybox first.
With safestrap, I installed the T-mobile Alliance Rom (build B4).
Seconds after booting, both Wifi Calling and Voice over LTE work!
Enjoy!
Guillaume
Hi Guillaume,
Have you tried just installing the stock T-mobile 5.0 firmware on a Att GS5 ?
I have my GS5 in ND3 rooted and I'm on Tmobile, but the procedure you have seems really long...
I really need wifi calling as I'm travelling a lot and it allows to call my wife when I'm back in France.
Thanks

Thanks as this is great news for us G900A users on TMO! Question though: After 0A1 installed/backedup and Alliance installed, did you use safestrap [TWRP] to restore your data from 0A1 install?

Actually no; I had been using the t-mo alliance rom using safestrap for a long time (just with the old ATT modem and kernel), so I just restored the data associated with that.
Some more info after a day of tests:
You can also install the 5th build of Alliance Rom, it works too
The camera sometimes glitches a bit; toggling HDR on/off fixes it
Except for the camera glitch I'm pretty happy with it!

I might to try to create a flashable zip from the latest t-mobile lollipop release, keeping only the /system files, and see how that goes. This is really a shot in the dark, hoping that the 4.4.4 modem and kernel from ATT somehow work well enough with the t-mobile lollipop rom. Damn you locked bootloader!

Agree with the last expletive.
I did install in alliance B4 in slot 1 of Safestrap and both wi-fi tether and calling worked well. However, my G900A would not reboot or shutdown (dark screen) without a battery pull. After power up...worked?!?!
Did you install as "Stock" or in a slot?
Also have a G870A (Active). Do you know of anyone attempting the 0A1 method and Alliance Rom with the s5 Active?

What would happen if I odin a Stock T-mobile firmware and let T-mobile update it ?
Will it update the Baseband etc ?

I only use the stock slot.
B4 seems a bit more than stable than B5 for some reason. I get some signal issues with B5, and the fingerprint scanner sometimes fails. (It works when I first install B4, use it for a while, and then upgrade to B5. But if I do a /data wipe on B5, these issues appear. I have no idea why).

You can't do that, the bootloader is locked.

Okay thanks,
So I started the steps, I've Odin the original firmware and factory reset on but my baseband stayed ND3...
Tried the OTA update hoping that it would work, but as expected it did not.
So I guess I'm at step 1 of your step one.
Then you said you pushed the update via sd card, where did you find the updates ?
Then I'll do the other steps!
Baby steps by baby steps, F... it's been a long time since I rooted my ipod 1st gen to crack my ps3!

OK. Installed in stock slot but ROM behaved much differently.
1. Wifi sms/mms work both send/receive but erratically.
2. Outgoing calls connect then immediately drop with local "cancelled" within a few milli-secs with a partial ring at the far end.
3. Can't receive calls at all. TMO network thinks I'm offline even though can receive a text.
3. Phone App GUI stutters when making a call.
4. Camera is basically not usable.
Where there any special steps you took to get this working installed in the stock slot? Has your install remained stable? Thanks in advance.

My phone is still working flawlessly. What your are describing is what happened to me during the short period I reverted to the NG3 kernel in order to use Towelroot. Did you make sure to reflash the OA1 kernel once you were rooted? (before installing safestrap and, within safestrap, installing the Alliance Rom). I have found Alliance B4 to be more stable, so you could try that. Finally, a factory reset (wipe option in safestrap). Beyond that, you could try the whole thing again: flash the "downgrade to NCE" rom, which will remove safestrap and clean everything up; and take the tutorial from there.

Thanks again Guillaume,
Was running OA1 prior to Alliance B3, so just wiped Dalvik and Cache again, rebooted and left phone for the night. By next morning all was well except for the camera HDR issue. Once toggled it is OK until closed and reopened. Haven't had the time to look into whether there are Alliance B4 options which may affect this.
Have run it a few days and have had zero issues with Wi-Fi calling or tethering or apps: a very smooth experience.
Thanks again for your contribution. Also muniz_ri will find a bottle of wine on the doorstep soon. :highfive:
I have a t-mobile purchases N6 that is running rooted stock. This morning I got the message that the 5.1.1 update was available and I let it download but since I am running TWRP, nothing happened at reboot which is what you would expect. Can I just install the rom that downloads? I know there is a rooted stock rom available but I sometimes use wifi calling. I don't care if I lose root but I want to make sure I don't brick my phone.
I think more than anything I don't want to keep looking at the notification that tells me there is a new version and it won't go away.
You won't be able to flash the OTA file since you made modifications to /system. It will just fail The OTA is just a patch and not a full image.
If you want to update to 5.1.1, you'll need to flash the image or a custom ROM.
Ok thanks! Other than losing WiFi calling, is there any issue with flashing the international ROM to a T-Mobile phone? I know T-Mobile has a weird band that isn't always connected with all radios, at least on other phones.
if you want wifi calling and 5.1.1, install the t-mobile specific rom here:

You can install international versions and have it work on T-Mobile. If you want all the features, flash this latest version.
OK I'm a complete newbie here. I bought the 8" S2 International unlocked version from Amazon and will take it to AT&T to activate it tomorrow. It's on 5.0.2 and is not seeing any OTA updates. Does anyone know if there's a way to get 5.1.1 OTA? If not, does anyone know if Samsung has commented as to whether they'll release 5.1.1, or even Marshmallow, for this device or will I have to go to a custom ROM?
Also, is there an absolute beginners guide to this site? I've been reading through the threads and keep seeing terms like odin, twrp, and many others that I don't know what they mean and I'd like to figure out.
Thanks.

i just received the same device yesterday and so far, it's working just fine on at&t: including data full phone features (i wasn't aware that this version of the Tab S2 had a full fledged phone). i inserted my nano sim from my dual-sim note5 and the S2 configured everything automatically. also, i didn't see an OTA when i checked yesterday and there's nothing at sammobile.com which is where one can generally find firmware (stock ROM) for Samsung devices. any custom ROM right now will likely be 5.0.2.

Odin = Windows based application used to flash firmware to Samsung devices.
TWRP = a custom recovery that - once your phone is rooted (similar to admin privileges on windows pc) - allows one to flash a custom ROM or other components/features not on a stock device. you can also create backups/nandroids of your device so you can restore your device if something goes wrong (similar to resorting a windows system image to a new hard drive). always, always backup when trying things out. tutorials are here, but sometimes not easily located via search. :good:
I've got a S6 Active that when I received it was on Lollipop. I was able to flash MM (using thread here on XDA) to it before it was officially released from the carrier. Then I was able to flash back to stock Lollipop and then received the MM 6.0.1 update from the carrier. I wanted to flash back to Lollipop for testing purposes but was unable. I think it's because the bootloader is locked?
I've read a bunch of threads saying that the S6 active has nott been rooted? Has a locked bootloader? Can't run custom roms?
Can someone please give me the scoop on this. I'd like to go back to lollipop for testing but I don't think its possible. Is that the case? Thanks.

hi
yes it's not possible to downgrade your rom or your bootloader because of the locked bootloader that prevents any try to modify the device...
is this typical of most phones? I've read of others frutrations about the S6 active still having a locked bootloader. Did I just pick a bad platform? Is S6 the same way? How about S7 series? Thanks.

Locked bootloaders are often the case for phones provided by carriers. While a phone purchased directly from the manufacturer is usually able to have its bootloader unlocked, carrier phones are locked by the carrier themselves, preventing any tampering by the end user. A custom ROM is any modified version of Android not developed by the company that made your phone. Think of it like a third party system. To get these custom ROMs onto your phone you must "flash" (simply, install) the ROM from your computer to your phone. However, a locked bootloader prevents this. While in some cases there are ways to get around carrier locked bootloaders, it is generally futile. If you purchased the S6 Active in hopes of tinkering around with custom ROMs, I'm afraid you have picked the wrong phone. The S6 Active, as of currently, is permanently locked to Samsung's and AT&T's "stock ROM"
EDIT: as for going back to Lollipop, the reason this is generally not possible is due to the fact that the Marshmallow update also updated critical parts related to the bootloader. It is impossible to roll back these changes once they have been made as they are strictly one way.
Thanks for the explanation. I didn't buy the phone for the express reason for changing android versions but rather to use as my daily driver. We are a BES 12 (Blackberry Enterprise Server) shop and I have found a bug that causes the VPN portion of the software to drop after an hour or so. Simply hitting the home button (waking the phone up re-establishes the vpn and mail flow continues). I'm working with BB to determine what's going on. I've disabled all power saving and doze settings yet still the problem. They are going to activate some other phones on my system to see if they see the problem. My reason for wanting to go back to lollipop is that I don't believe I saw this problem when I was on that OS so I was hoping to go back to confirm that behavior. I like the "active" phones for their ruggedness but don't have an unlimited budget to be buying handsets.

If the software you are referring to is something provided by blackberry, perhaps they need to patch their software for compatibility with Android Marshmallow. While not all software is broken by a major Android update, there are definitely some that are. Of course enterprise level software is entirely foreign to me (I'm only 17), so getting a second opinion on this issue would definitely be a good idea.
OK, I understand locked bootloader preventing from flashing any custom roms etc. Even preventing previous official android. Here's another question: Is there a way to flash current android version? I'm on G890AUCS4CPF3 which is an AT&T build. What is the carrier's method to reflash current OS when there has been some corruption to the version that is on the phone. Not just wipe, but reload entire android, re-create file system etc... That's what I want to try next. Blackberry has activated a Samsung S6 on my server and it (so far) is not exhibiting the same problem as my S6 Active. This leads me to believe that it my be a problem with my hardware. I want to do a reload at this point. Any ideas how I can do that? Odin flash? Is there a repository for the G890AUCS4CPF3 ROM?
Thanks,

Carriers can tell if your Firmware is theirs or not because official Firmware is digitally signed by Samsung and AT&T.
As for using Odin, that would be your most viable option. However, I am not aware of any Odin images for the Marshmallow update on the S6A. As far as I know, Odin cannot get around the restriction of having a newer Bootloader, so you cannot flash down.
One thing you can try is to wipe cache partition. If that fails, factory reset from within the bootloader. Just make sure you've backed your data up.
EDIT: Take note that there is a difference in Firmware between the S6 vs the S6A.
EDIT 2: In your other thread you stated you can't flash back to lollipop due to a locked bootloader. This is actually due to, as stated before, the newest bootloader tha to the latest Android Marshmallow update.

So I wiped the cache partition and factory reset within the bootloader and tried my app again. It continued to fail. I even found the MM image in the S6 Active MM thread and sideloaded it. It was only 400+ megs though. Still the app doesn't work so I'm starting to doubt that my problems are related to my particular S6 but its always a possibility. I'm trying to get Blackberry to dig up their own S6A and test on their own. They've been testing with a S6 for the past 2 days (on my BES server) and haven't seen the same problems, so it's either my device or a problem with the S6A (which as has been pointed out does use a different firmware version than the S6), but until I can get another S6 Active device to test I won't know.

Not sure when the camera features came out.
Did you try the Samsung computer app to update?
What about Odin and loading the newest build?
I am terrible at instructions but these 2 PC apps might get the job done.
I did try Smart Switch, it said all up to date. ATT guy said he could see updates but nothing we did could get them to load. Suggested Samsung who I contacted. Tried safe mode, etc. Finally he suggested local geek squad at Best Buy to use Smart Tool to update?? I stopped by but they said they couldn't help.

this site(xda) is plastered with posts on how to use Odin and download the latest firmware/software for your phone and flash/install it.
step 1 search and read about what device model you have.
step 2 download the firmware( system OS) for your device model. web sites and utilities can be used to downlaod the software. frija and sam firm tool are both utilities developed here on xda. search for them.
step 3 research about odin and how to use that tool to manualy update your samsung device with the extracted file downloaded on step 2.
xda is a do it your self type of site. usualy searching would answer all your questions.
What bober said. I have had this issue with At&t since Note 8. Don't get them on Note9 or 10. At&t is horrible at ota's. Some get them some don't. I have always had to flash them with Odin. And they are even worse at posting their firmware. I think the last N9 firmware the post was 1ARG6 or something like that.
My SM-N950U Still Rooted Note 8
I have had AT&T for awhile, and noticed once I switch to unlock phones bought from Samsung directly, I get the OTA's more consistently. Of course this is a sample size of one.i currently am on Novembers 2019 update on both my note 8(no sim, just use as mp3 player) and my Note 9(daily driver with AT&T sim). Honestly I didnt even check for updates, and just get the notice automatically about new updates being ready to install.
I would wonder if something else is wrong, like those above said. Odin to a clean install of the correct firmware and you should be good to go.

Does using Odin trip the Knox of a samsung ?
I haven't gotten any update since February, 2019. I have been skeptical about using Odin to update, so as not to root my phone or trip the knox

No.
Odin is for flashing official Samsung firmware
So Knox remains intact.
Flashing non Samsung custom roms custom recovery and rooting will trip Knox *permanently
Thank you, I really appreciate this. I'll go download the firmware from sammobile
