Hi,
I've bought an AT&T Samsung Galaxy S4 Active (I537 with the firmware UCUAMF2), rooted it with Activeroot (thanks Geohot!) and than unlocked it successfully with the code I've purchased on ebay. The phone functions work well, I can make calls, send SMS and use mobile internet (4G). However, when I try to swith on WiFi access point either in Settings or by the stock app "Access Point" (and similar third parties apps too), I get the error message "Mobile data is not available or invalid SIM". I've kept all the AT&T system apps except AT&T HotSpots and just disabled OTA software update option (by renaming two KNOXAgent files). Do you have any ideas how to solve this problem?
i´m on the same boat but for galaxy s4, try this tutorial http://galaxys4root.com/galaxy-s4-tutorials/how-to-wifi-tether-att-galaxy-s4-sgh-i337/
its for i337 but it might work for you, didnt work for me :/
SOLVED!!! Use the guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2420488
Both my dad and I picked up the Note 8 on launch day. I had zero issue enabling wifi calling out of the box, and in fact it seems to be working quite well for me. He's not had the same success. At first it said it would have to disable Google Voice. We uninstalled the app, and had Sprint de-integrate his number with Google Voice, so that the carrier stock voicemail could be configured. That didn't work initially either, and he spent some time at the store having their tech fix it. I wasn't there, so I'm not sure what they did, but eventually they got the voicemail working. So then he came around asking me to set up wifi calling. I attempted to, only this time the setup prompt insisted that it be allowed to disable Voicemail first. But since that's a system app, I'm not sure how that can be done. And given his problems with voicemail to date, I'm reticent to let it try and disable his voicemail again.
Anybody else run into this problem? Is there some sort of fix that doesn't involve another visit to Sprint?

If you are having issues with things not working on Sprint, I first had to factory reset...all was well afterwards...make sure you have a brand new SIM for the Note 8...is it a Sprint or Unlocked device (SM-N950U or SM-950U1)

Coolness, factory reset is probably the best...unless it is because of a previously used SIM
I have an unlocked note 8 (US) on Verizon, and no wifi calling at all.

Same here. I bought mine directly from Samsung and just found out that the option to select WiFi calling is missing! I rely on this at home because we live in a valley with poor cell phone reception (I have to step to a front window to make/receive calls without WiFi calling).

You can flash Verizon firmware if you want WiFi calling on Verizon...but some users have successfully had it added to the unlocked version by calling Verizon and adding their imei to Verizon database....search the threads if you need...

Thanks. I tried searching the threads but didn't find much. Maybe I need to change how I'm searching. If I do need to "flash the Verizon firmware," where can I find instructions and will it add bloat or reduce the functionality in any way (I wanted non-Verizon because of the way Verizon changed features on my Note 5)? Will flashing the firmware interfere with the Samsung support?

I called Samsung tech support and they confirmed that this feature is not in the based version of Android but the ones distributed by the carriers. The tech suggested calling Verizon and asking them to install the firmware. Anyone know if (assuming they agree) this will be the full package, including all the bloatware, and if this will remove any features from the phone? Would the "upgrade" wipe out the phone so that I have to set everything up again?
When I bought my Note 5 from Verizon two years ago I was upset to find that they had removed the PDF signing capability that was a big feature of the Note 5. I'd really hate to lose any features on my new Note 8, after all that's why I bought directly from Samsung.

In order for you to remain on unlocked firmware to avoid bloat and keep Samsung goodies you must call Verizon to have the imei # to their whitelist and reprovisioned...I did this for Sprint to enable VoLTE when available...others with Verizon have done the same...call Verizon cs and tell them you bought from Samsung and need to have your imei # whitelisted and reprovisioned to improve network connection...if one rep will not do it, call another...do not mention that it is unlocked version...just state that you got from Samsung on a Note 7 deal...afterwards, all Verizon features will work on unlocked except vvm...Google voice is better anyways

If I get them to add my imei to the whitelist and "reprovision" the phone, when they do that the option for WiFi calling will appear?
I'm slightly puzzled by your vvm comment: will all Verizon voicemail be non-functional or only Visual Voicemail? I have Google Voice set up to provide a second number on my phone. How do I use it to set up voice mail on my phone with my Verizon number?

First, I found the Google Voice shortcut for Verizon is what you thought: *71yourgooglevoicenumber
Now for my bad news. I spent nearly an hour on the phone with Verizon tech support. After being bounced around a little, I spoke with a woman who kept contacting their "Network Team" for more details, and who tried to be very helpful, but in the end I am no further ahead. In the end, they said that adding my phone to the Whitelist was "Out of Scope" because the phone was already unlocked and functioning on Verizon. She said that all she could suggest was to contact Samsung, and that Verizon tech support would be happy to have a three-way conference call with Samsung tech support (they would call) to see what could be done, and that she'd put a note in my account about this issue.
Now, if I call back and try to speak to anyone else they will see this note that that will be it. So, I'm back to not being able to make phone calls at home.

For now, I have a partial solution for the poor phone connection at home: years ago, after we had complained a lot about a poor signal at home, Verizon gave us a free "Network extender," which acts as a mini tower in our house (connected through the house Internet). It is only 3G, so I disconnected it when we had WiFi calling on our phones. Now, I'll reconnect it. The only problem is that is won't connect to a phone with VoLTE calling enabled, so I have to remember to turn off VoLTE calling when I get home, and turn it back on when I leave so that I can keep my Internet access on a phone call.

I'm interested in flashing the VZW user data. Where did you find the info you needed?
Actually, I haven't quite. None of the Verizon ROMs I'm downloading from updato have the userdata file
I heard I can call Verizon and get a tech to enable the vzw features like WiFi calling... I may try to do that tomorrow.

It's interesting that you posed this. I have been messing around with my phone trying to get a TMO firmware on my Verizon variant. Every time I would flash the firmware, I would get an overlay of Verizon and TMO apps. You can check my thread for details, but this is the firmware that I was working with: N950USQU1AQI5 - SM-N950U TMB USA (T-Mobile)

Does the ROM you're flashing include USERDATA file that you stick in the UMS slot in Odin?
Went and read your thread, what a friggin' disaster. I flashed Verizon ROM yesterday. The software version was showing as VZW/VZW/XAA. Verizon never recognized my device as a Verizon one, so still no luck with Wi-Fi calling, Video calling or Voice Mail. Then I tried to bring back Samsung Cloud by linking to the activity via QuickShortcutMaker. Seems to work for a lot of people, but for me it was just force closing. Got pissy and flashed back to XAA firmware. Restored everything from Samsung Cloud and am pretty content again. Screw Verizon is all I can say.

Yup, I've tried multiple different firmware versions that all had the USERDATA file flashed into UMS. I am trying to do a carrier change with the factory binary firmware that BlueFox721 found, but so far, it isn't working. I am sure that someone will figure something out soon though....maybe....hopefully....? I am thinking about flashing to XAA firmware and leaving it alone as well.

I'm not 100% sure about that. I know without the Verizon USERDATA we will not get Verizon Visual Voicemail. But "HD Calling" (VoLTE) is an option on the phone. That's one down I guess. Verizon locks out video calling when you activate an unlocked phone (at least on my account they did), so I know I'm not getting that.
WiFi calling is an interesting one though. It's the only one I REALLY REALLY want. I spoke with a tech who hopped into my phone via diagnostics through the My Verizon app. She said "Advanced Calling" is enabled on my phone, and confirmed VoLTE. She said VoWiFi is there but it's like it's greyed out, she couldn't enable it She said that Verizon isn't actively "blocking" it. I'm seriously hoping it's in a hidden shortcut somewhere.
I have vzw firmware with userdata on my unbranded note 8. I got it from updato. It was uploaded on Sept. 15th. I can confirm that wifi calling and visual voicemail work.
Can you provide the link to the ROM on updato? Also, did you do anything special besides flashing all files via modified Odin? Which CSC did you use? Thanks!
I flashed the u not u1(which is my model #) via Odin found at:
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/SM-N950U/VZW/download/N950USQU1AQI5/188972/
Everything works except video calling because Verizon blocks it on their system if you're not using a Verizon IMEI#. There is a workaround though. If you put your sim card into a Verizon branded phone, boot it, then pull the sim and put it in your unlocked note 8, video calling works until you reboot and their system catches a non Verizon IMEI number hitting their network. Then it's automatically blocked. I started using Google Duo instead and I'm happy. Wi-Fi calling, VoLTE, and Visual Voicemail are all working great.

Ohhhh, almost forgot, use the prince comsy Odin to flash the user file.
I may try it again at some point. For now I have everything set up exactly as I want and I like Samsung settings menu much better than Verizon's. I like the ability to use Samsung cloud too. Voice mail is about the only thing that I miss but Google Voice is working great and even transcribes voice mails for free (as opposed to $2.99/mo Verizon charges for "Premium" Voice Mail). I've never used wi-fi calling or video calling. There are so many apps like Duo, Viber, WhatsApp, Skype that can do the same thing, it's really a non-issue.
These are the links I used to flash my unlocked n8 to give me all the features needed to work with Verizon. I'm using Google voice for my voicemail and video calling isn't an option.

You can also call to have your imei added to their list...if one tech does not know how...call another until one will...others have had success and it adds all features available...
Purchased an N950U1 ("unlocked") from Samsung under the Note7 injured customers plan and put it on Verizon.
I need wifi calling due to weak signal at home but I also need the flexibility of an unlocked phone to use on international travels.
Have not yet modified my phone in any way.
Talked to a Verizon rep today.
He refused to admit that there is a way to change the IMEI in the database. Claimed it was an administrative/financial/controlling/some other crap that makes it not possible. He was able to provision voLTE (HD Calling) but no video calling and no wifi calling (important for me due to weak cell signal at home).
When Samsung builds the phones it publishes the IMEI listing what exactly is in the phone. Verizon looks at that list and if it's not originally a Verizon Firmware from Samsung, they won't provision it for certain services. (Apparently unless you reach someone who knows how to go around it, haven't tried multiple calls yet.)
This is kind of a new situation since about the Samsung S8; phones are (finally) all hardware identical (in a specific region, anyway) but only differ in firmware.
The next improvement is that the carriers are slowly realizing that blaotware is bad (Too slowly but at least progress is being made.) - even going so far as to allow some of it to be uninstalled - and more recent versions of Android offer more control over stuff so bloatware is not the issue it once was.
Differences between phones:
- Unlocked has: Samsung cloud, Samsung interface
- Locked has: Verizon bloatware, wifi calling, video calling, visual voice mail
(Did I miss anything?)
So far I see the options are this:
- Leave phone as is, accept fewer calling options in favor of less bloat and other improvements
- Install Verizon firmware and hope to find someone who will "fix" the provisioning
- Install Verizon firmware and activate it by switching from a "real" Verizon phone to this one without a reboot (how does that get the wifi calling to appear in the menu?)
- Return the phone and get a Verizon version.
Not sure yet what I'll do but leaning towards the Firmware/"Fix" version.
To complicate things, wife is on AT&T. That has even worse reception at home and she's there much more often.
If you need Verizon's wife calling and video calling on, you need to flash Verizon firmware in full.

I'll second that. Unfortunately true.
Does anyone have a Gear S3(AT&T LTE version) and got it to work with NumberSync on their International Note 8(SM-N950F)? AT&T chat seems to have no clue as to why it won't work(I'm basically thinking since it's an international version and not branded At&T), but the reps can't confirm that. They just say buy a new device that is NumberSync capable, but when I ask them which phones are those, they can't give me an answer..
They thought it was my IMEI, which at the AT&T store, they had to spoof the IMEI from my Moto X Pure Style to get the 4G/LTE to work correctly.
It would just be great to have the NumberSync to work, but I have no problems with the Bluetooth connection for now.

Have you tried reseting the watch?Numbersync works in part with the stock messaging app. AT&T advanced messaging syncs your messages to the server and then it gets forwarded to your Gear. For numbersync to work on the international version you will most likely need to odin the AT&T stock image since it wont have the Advance messaging or try installing the advance messaging files. I've had my fair share of numbersync issues but eventually it got better with my S3/S8+ and now Note 8.

Hmmm... I see you have a US version of the Note 8, so you're probably in a better situation than I am atm. My Note 8 on my account only shows up as unknown device. I haven't been on this page as much since rooting my phone, so I'll follow up on the CSC flashing or ODIN AT&T image, if that's possible now. I'll look for Advance messaging as well. I know the Gear S3 still shows that when not in bluetooth or Wi-FI, it shows remotely connected, I still get notifications of miss calls from my phone, so it's sending me notifications in that sense, limited...
Thanks for the mentioned options, I'll look into them.
I tried to access NumberSync through my account but it says note 8 not compatible
Make sure you are signed into the myAT&T app. It uses that to sync your info/number.
Okay so I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 that's originally on AT&T but I have a Straight Talk SIM card that I want to use in my Samsung Galaxy Note 9. The problem is is that I also want to use my Straight Talk hotspot but on most AT&T phones it does not work. Is there a hack for this? Or there is there a way to reprogram? Or do I have to root my note 9? Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi's you're my only hope.
I have the same problem
Has anyone found a solution to this?
I just received notice this week that Straigh Talk is now including 10GB Hotspot on my plan but on my ATT Note 9 (SM-N960U) when I first attempt to turn this on I get notified that it is not supported on my account. I've chatted with their support 3 times this week, and they keep applying the Hotspot to my account and I've rebooted my phone multiple times but still yet I get this error message.
Now funny enough I can still actually get the Hotspot enabled and I can connect to it from my other devices; however, they are not able to browse the internet when they get connected.
Really hoping to get this resolved before to long.
