T-Mobile WiFi Calling "Data service is blocked" - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just ported my number from Verizon to T-Mobile and they don't have service at my house (neither did Verizon). I'm trying to activate WiFi calling but I frequently get the message "Data service is blocked" from "Phone Services". I'm on latest Pure Nexus but I'm not sure if ROM has anything to do with it. I called T-Mobile and they did a network refresh but the issue is still persisting. Wondering if anyone else came across this and what fixed it?

This is from the PN thread:
ProBird79 said:
I have figured out the WIFI calling problem. If you delete the "T-Mobile IMS" APN it will neuter your WIFI calling. This APN isn't selected and I wasn't aware that you needed it since the standard "fast.t-mobile.com" APN is selected. I'm not sure if this is only within this ROM or widespread. Also, I'm wondering if this is the reason VoLTE hasn't been working. I don't have anyone to call at the moment to test this out but I will report back once I find out.
This was hard to find as it changes after a reboot and not instantaneously. So even though I didn't change anything I rebooted then the problem persisted.
Edit: Also, you must have to use the phone app within the ROM and not the Google Phone app or WIFI calling seems to break.
Edit #2: This was also the reason VoLTE wasn't working. All is good now!

The above solution worked for me after I tweaked the APN settings from this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/help/getting-volte-wifi-calling-to-metro-pcs-t3284024 post #4
After that, the T-Mobile IMS" APN was listed and I deleted both entries for IMS. Once that was done, T-Mobile Wifi Calling was back!!

[HOW TO] Fix LTE Issue with CM 12.1 based ROMs and Sprint as your carrier

This may fix jfltespr on the Sprint network always worked fine with LTE on most ROMs, but not with very many ROMs lately.
It seems that the APN had one slight difference between ROMs that worked with LTE for me (older CM, stock TW, GPE), and ROMs that had no LTE or eventually dropped LTE (CM12.1 based). The bearer was not set to LTE in the APN profile for the ROMs that do not work for me. Changing that quickly fixed the problem (figuring it out took me much longer). I looked around a bunch when I had this issue, and found people with the same issue, but no solutions. So, that's why I post this here now. Here's the How To if needed:
Go to Settings, Mobile Networks, Access Point Names, and Sprint LTE internet.
Scroll down to Bearer and see what it is set to. Mine was Unspecified, and that's what was causing the issue. Set Bearer to LTE
Go back to APNs, and also set Bearer to LTE on Sprint EHRPD internet. I know that's not the normally selected APN, but if you only change Sprint LTE Internet, it seems to automatically change to this EHRPD one, and it still doesn't work.
That's it for now. Enjoy your LTE again on 5.1.1. It seems to be much smoother.
I'm on an LG G3 but this APN/LTE issue seems to be affecting a lot of people on Android 5.1.x. I've been searching for solutions for days. Unfortunately, I have to report that your method did not work for me. With the Bearers changed to LTE I'm not getting any connection at all, but with them Unspecified I'll get a connection for a small time (<1min) after switching preferred network from 3G back to LTE before it drops again and gives me the exclamation point. If I leave it on 3G I have no problems retaining a 3G data connection. Nexus owners appear to be having this issue en masse with their 5.1.0 & 5.1.1 updates from google so it doesn't appear to be a CM issue, though CM had some APN related commits on July 1 that also seemed to cause problems for people and were undone by devs of some CM-based roms.
Yea that's a bummer. Thanks for sharing though. Maybe having it happen to so many people means that it will get fixed sooner than later, but I can only hope. I can only speak for the Sprint version of the S4 running on the Sprint network. It seems that people with this exact phone are okay on other networks.
This fix wasn't 100% for me either. Every once in-a-while, I think mostly in particular locations, it'll get stuck on the exclamation mark, and I'll just have to throw it into airplane mode for a moment.
If you haven't tried yet, make sure to put the bearers to LTE for all APNs that have the same DNS name as the normal one that you use, and the others at their defaults. It's probably not the case, but your results sound similar to mine when I only set one of the APN bearers to LTE. I thought that might be worth a mention, but I'm sure there are deeper problems. Sounds like you probably already did that anyway...
I've been having problems with this too and I tried your method but it didn't help me. It's really frustrating when there's so many great roms that are useless but thanks for trying though. Hopefully it gets resolved soon.
AOSP automatically selects the correct APN as long as the bearer is unspecified. You can hard code the bearer, but then that APN is only valid for that bearer. In other words, setting the eHRPD bearer to LTE will make that APN only valid for situations where the radio is connected to LTE. However, the connection will fail because the APN settings are wrong and the system will automatically move to the next APN with the bearer set to LTE. This time the connection will succeed because the next APN is the LTE APN. If you set the eHRPD bearer to LTE then you will never get a 3g connection.
What exactly are the symptoms you guys are seeing with LTE? My wife and I are both running CM with no connection problems whatsoever.

For me, I just randomly lose data connection, both 3G and LTE. It will then reconnect a few minutes later. I tried removing the other APN like the freedompop & ting leaving only sprint APNs thinking that might help but it I still lose data.

Do you get an explanation point?
Take a modem log right after you lose data and send it to me in a PM.

MMS ???
Hi. I am running CM12.1 and have tried other Lollipop roms. I am using Ting as my provider. I have two issues.
1. I don't get voicemail notifications. I can live with that.
2. Picture messages don't show. Texts come and go with no problem, just not picture (mms) texts.
Would these fixes help my issue? I have had no issues with 3g, which is most of my coverage area. I am usually on wifi anyway.
Thank you!

Cm12.1 ignores the voicemail notification from the carrier. The MMS issue is an incorrect/missing APN. If you can figure out what it should be we can get a patch submitted.

Here is a jfltespr build that fixes Ting data/MMS. I strongly recommend a clean install. If that's not possible, be sure to reset APNs to defaults after you flash and then reboot. It will take a minute or two to get data after the reboot. Please let me know how it goes. If this does fix it, I will submit the patch. If not, I still have some ideas.
Be sure to make a nandroid backup as I couldn't get my wife's S4 to test it with and this was the first time I have built for the S4 on this machine.
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347780285
This build is up to date with CM sources as of last night.
I am downloading now and will try it tonight. I appreciate the quick work. I am on Octo now, but really prefer CM. I will clean install. Thank you!

I loaded it on and everything works except for mms. My 3g is good, wifi, texts, internet, calls ... just no pictures in texts. Something I noticed was different from the other CM12 versions is that now I can see that the text was sent, I just can't download it. I tried these settings from this page - I used the EHRPD settings. They were able to make mms work using the Octo rom.

What fixed your problem? Setting the 3g bearer to LTE? That means the freedompop LTE APN is wrong and should be patched in the code. If we could get more input on this we could fix it for good.
I don't even have anything listed in my APN (I used to). How do I fix that?

Tap airplane mode, then tap again to turn airplane mode off. Then go into your APN menu. Your APN's should appear.
I'm running the latest CM 12.1 nightly. The stock APN's work for me, but I rarely get a LTE connection with them.
I've flashed the APN fix that's floating around, and it worked in older builds of CM 12, but recently the fix just disconnects and leaves me with no signal.
If I do what OP suggests, I'll get an LTE connection, but that leaves me with no 3G where LTE isn't strong.
I guess the problem with CM is that it cannot successfully switch between LTE and 3G correctly.
If you're not all that concerned about getting an LTE connection, I'd recommend just sticking with the stock APN's. Once you start flashing fixes, you're gonna have a problem.

Android 5.1.1. Update Disables Mobile Data (D5803)

Hello,
I recently updated my Z3 compact (D5803) to android 5.1.1. on the T-Mobile network here in NYC. Ever since then, I frequently lose the ability to do anything data-based with the phone. No web browing, no chatting on whatsapp. I can still make phone calls and send/receive SMS, however. The data functionality returns when on WiFi, but goes away once I switch back to LTE. In order for me to get data on LTE, I have to manually download the internet settings for my provider to my phone (this is located under the Settings menu in android). Even then, it only lasts for several minutes before the data connection is lost. T-Mobile was unable to fix the problem, and changing the SIM card didn't resolve the issue.
Anyone else experience this?
Yes, many others have the same problem, see various posts in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/discussion-5-1-1-stock-released-post-t3162309
Currently, the best workaround seems to be to disable and re-enable mobile data, or to go to airplane mode and back again. That solves the issue until you drop LTE connection the next time, then you will have to re-iterate.

Yes I am having the exact same problem since updating to 5.1.1. As the other reply says turning airplane mode off then on is the quickest way to get connectivity back (swipe down twice from the top for quick access). This is terribly frustrating though, it only lasts for a few minutes. I can't believe they pushed the update with this issue!

My phone had this issue after the over the air update. I reset the phone to factory, wiped all data. Two days on, now, and no more problems with this.
Same problem. I tried factory reset out of desperation, but it didn't work.
Love this phone, but very discouraged by this bug.

As posted in the other thread, there is now a fix/workaround:
From reddit user FishStik5: Going into the APN settings and changing the APN protocol to iPv4 only (it was iPv6 before) seems to fix the problem.
How to find the setting: Settings-> Wirelessa and Network / more -> Mobile networks -> APN -> T-mobile data -> APN protocol -> Set to IPv4.

I have also problem with that (Orange, Poland). I sent my phone to official Sony service, they reload the software, but I still have that problem. Lte is working for a while and when my phone switches to wcdma (because it is not in a range of lte) it is not working either. However, when I change the preferred network from lte to wcdma it is working without any issues.
Same problem here although I'm on ipv4 [emoji34]

this is a bug on 5.1.1 sony need to fix it
Any news with this issue?
No problem here with LTE on the CM 12.1 Cyanogenmod flavor of 5.1.1 on T-mobile (that I've noticed at least). But I think CM 12.1 may handle the APN settings differently (mine is set to T-Mobile LTE ipV4) from the stock ROM or it could be something Sony messed up from the AOSP code. I'm NOT suggesting anyone try a CM ROM as a solution as there are lots of downsides to unlocking your phone and flashing any non-stock ROM. But the problem does seem to be specific to the Sony ROM and not 5.1.1 in general.
I also have this problem after the update to 5.1.1 in the Netherlands. The first problem was that the update changed some mobile data settings, so I downloaded the settings from my provider. Unfortunately those settings were also incorrect as I had to manually remove the APN's Proxy and Port (they were set, be needed to be 'not set'/empty). This improved the connection a bit, but it still looses the mobile data at certain places (where the coverage is good). Did a factory reset as the Sony helpdesk suggested. For a few days this seemed to help, but again the same issue came up. The suggested solution mentioned in this thread did not work as those settings are already applied.
I have a profider (Telfort) which uses another provider's network (KPN's). So after the update I also see a annoying R in the signal icon, where in the previous version it always showed H+, H, 3G.
Does anyone know if this is resolved in the new update?
After the last update and a new reconfiguracion on the APN now work correct for me.

WiFi calling interntional

Can anyone help me out please
Problem: WiFi calling not working.
I'm currently overseas in the uae right now and will be year for a whole year. I've tried getting my WiFi calling to work on both LP and MM but no luck. I've tried fresh installs, airplane mode toggle, WiFi tether toggle, WiFi toggle and nothing seems to work.
After I finished setting this aosip 6.0 ROM today, I looked at my quick settings and it showed T-Mobile WiFi calling but immediately after that, I had to reboot the device for a layers theme install. After reboot the WiFi calling was gone. I've tried everything I know possible to get it back but no luck.
Anyone ever experience this or can anyone possibly help me out because T-Mobile has already started hitting me for roaming charges.
Please and thank you
My current ROM
wifi calling doesnt matter about your rom, its about your provider. if your provider does not provide wifi calling(like tmobiles wifi calling), then wifi calling will never work.
It's T-Mobile. And I've check with multiple reps who told me that it's active on my account

cool, i had no idea.. now i know
try using google voice instead, I know its boot what you asked about but it's what I used and it has nothing to do with the Rom, it's standalone app
I use T-Mobile Wifi calling in Europe back to the US without issue, but I set it up while still in the US.
Since T-Mobile has a *very* nice international roaming data scheme, I suggest you use Google Voice/Hangouts to avoid incurring roaming charges until you get this fixed,

Lenovo K3 Note Android Marshmallow Data Connection Error

Hi, I have the Indian version of the Lenovo K3 note (K50a40), and recently installed the official OTA android 6.0 marshmallow update. Everything on the phone appears to be working, including calling and texting (on T-Mobile), except for data connection. Before the update, I would be able to connect to and receive H+ from T-mobile in the USA, but now, even with full bars, the phone lacks data connection. I tried enabling roaming and changing the APN to no avail. Can someone please offer any advice? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I fixed the issue. for some reason, the update messes up the APN settings. To fix this, google the APN settings for your carrier. Make sure that they are the settings for 4g or LTE. Then, on your device, go to settings>data usage>more>mobile network>access point names>new APN, and enter the information you just looked up. You may need to restart the phone.

Volte/WiFi calling

Hi, guys.
Just wondering if any of you have working VOLTE/WIFI calling on your Pixel 5.
I'm on Vodafone UK and none of these are working, I don't get the options for the two in Network settings.
Apparently, they are not provisioned ATM.
Have you had more luck with your operators?

Yeah, I had a feeling going with Vodafone is a mistake...
Working here with O2. They have a guide on the Vodafone website for the Pixel 4 so can't see why it doesn't work with the 5. https://deviceguides.vodafone.co.uk...ress the phone icon.&text=Press Wi-Fi calling.
Well, it's Vodafone. Apparently one of their geniuses has to add a line of code somewhere..
Anyway, the guide for P4 asks for activation from within the phone app's settings and the Wifi calling/Volte settings are missing from there on the Pixel 5.
On BT Mobile i have Wi-Fi calling after turning it on in the mobile network settings, the VoLTE option is also there, it is greyed out but set to the on position.

No VoLTE, tried it whilst out and about and the call quality was terrible after being used to it for so long.

Have you checked on the settings of the phone app?

Yup been through all the options and can't see it!
It seems it's different for every operator, I can only suggest to give ID a phone call..
I'm on 3, have no issues at all
Wifi Calling
works on my P5, also a 3 user
option is found under Settings, Network and Internet, Mobile Network, Advanced, Wi-Fi Calling
I'm on Vodafone and I don't have settings for WiFi calling either. Funnily enough when I got text message from Vodafone to download internet settings they didn't even have the pixel 4a/ 4a 5g or 5 on there.. so that's probably why people on Vodafone can't enable it because Vodafone themselves haven't added the phones on for WiFi calling

Check out this thread on Vodafone forum, will try it myself and see if it works

Okay so update for Vodafone users, I got it working.
Following the second link above, 1. Go into Vodafone app and turn off WiFi calling, restart phone. 2. Go back into Vodafone app and turn back on WiFi calling (wait for 3/5 minutes and then restart phone again (you should receive a text from Vodafone saying it's enabled on your account). 3. Go to call app > settings> calls>WiFi calling>enable.
It also shows on networking settings in advanced now too.
Now I'm connected to WiFi calling, hope this helps Vodafone users

It works for me now. Just try the following:
On MyVodafone app, disable wifi calling and immediately restart the phone. Then enable it again and immediately restart the phone. The Wifi calling settings should appear on Settings/Network and Internet/Mobile network (Vodafone)/Advanced.
At least they have in my case.

Well thank you in that case, resolved that issue easily
Happy to help, it's fkin frustrating to be in your house with only edge signal, hardly able to have a phone conversation, waiting for Vodafone to do its job.

No VoLTE, tried it whilst out and about and the call quality was terrible after being used to it for so long.

What an arse i am, turns out the other caller was using their phone on speakerphone, made a few calls since and VoLTE is working just fine on BT Mobile.
Neither is working for me as well, but was working fine on my old phone.
What I noticed on my device is that it came from Google with the "KDDI only" build on it(see https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-5/help/kddi-variant-t4178033), which I suspect might be related to the issue.

I don't think so. The model of my phone is RD1A.200810.021.A1. Let me guess, is this the same as yours?
PS: what network are you on?
