Hi everybody.. I ordered a Droid 4 from the US (i'm in the UK) .. Setup giffgaff unltimited internet, however for some reason the connection isn't stable. Sometimes the connection will not connect for at least 3 hours. I have rooted and tried the AOPK, Avatar and Liquid ROMs, but its the same issue.
I have another Droid 4 running 4.0.4 and tested if it was a problem with the SIM card, but it worked fine.. No problems what-so-ever.
Any suggestions anyone?

I eventually gave up on giffgaff because of constantly dropped calls, and incoming calls that would go straight to voicemail. Found it a lot better on O2, which is odd given that both use the same network.
For your problem though, how is it if you use the stock ROM? all those 3 ROMs use custom kernels and I haven't had much luck with them on GSM. If it works on stock then you know the problem isn't the phone or the SIM at least.

I have noticed some of your old posts in the GiffGaff Community Forum.
FWIW, I've been using it in anger for just over a month, and can't say I've had any problems (apart from a short outage across the network, which is apparently quite rare).
Cheers,
Steve.

Yea the problem is persistent on the stock ROM too
Is there any way to calibrate the hardware?
Not that I know of, mine just worked.
Did you update to JB yet? I believe there were changes to the radio firmware included.
Other than that, I don't know. If you have an identical Droid 4 that does work with that SIM then the only explanation left would be faulty hardware
Yea it came originally with JB
Can you tell me how to downgrade to 4.0.4 if you don't mind please.

AFAIK - You can't downgrade, I'm afraid.
In the Network Mode, have you selected GSM/UMTS, or are you set to Global?
It does sound like you might have a hardware problem.

Thanks everyone, but I found a solution ~ a very weird one...
I removed all the custom ROMs and safestrap and did a full factory reset on the stock ROM. Miraculously this did the trick strangely enough.

Here's My Problem and I want to know if someone else has it. I updated From Stock Kitkat to Lollipop and All When well, until i noticed that the wifi calling feature was buggy . Sometimes i'm using wifi calling and all of the sudden error code all most every time, that didn't happen when i was with kitkat?
Are you on stock

That is for lg not our phones.
WiFi calling is much improved for me on lollipop.
I had had to stop using it at the end of my kitkat days.
Have you done a factory reset or erased data since you updated?
I've had problems since the update. Factory reset didn't help. Called T-Mobile and they sent a Sim refresh didn't help. It will work for a couple of hours then get lost and be stuck on enabling. T-Mobile did acknowledge there is issues for some. They advised me last time to down grade to kit kat or use my warranty to get another phone.
I'd ask for another sim card at the nearest retail store.
Somethings wrong. It's way better on lollipop.
I've got mine on, now as you can see.
It would have been disabled, but WiFi itself on before.
I know that it is from lg but it's the same problem if you look on tmobile page and look for note 4 every person on the page is saying that there having problems with wifi calling
From what I gather it's lollipop and WiFi calling in general that's the problem lol. I haven't touched mine all day. It was stuck enabling before work, stuck on enabling at work but when I got home it's working again. It seems to work slightly better with location services on high accuracy. Maybe it's a e911 issue? Idk why. Its set on my T-Mobile account. Just annoying.
And it stopped working again lol
Have you considered a custom rom?

That doesn't mean it is a wificalling issue. Could very well be router. Click the last option that say never use cell service and if u get error post screenshot of it.
Router is the airport extreme 5th gen. Its had the same settings for years. Worked perfect on Kit Kat.
Restarted after putting it back on the default setting. It's working again, for now lol

I googled a few reviews and seems since 2013 they have issues when it comes to skype and other wificalls over the net. Most said apple care took care of it with an update and changing settings in router.
Another route is to call ? tmobile and tell them you need wifi calling cause you no service in your apartment. They will give you a asus router that is hand down a trouble free router.
The only option they gave me was to use the warranty. I tried my spare router tp link 1043nd running gargoyle software, made no difference. Could you take a screen shot of your APN settings? I wonder if there is something different. Here's mine
Hello all,

Didn't have any issues with mine out of the box or now that I've finally got all the T-Mobile stuff working with it's CSC and apps. I've called out and received calls in both circumstances and had zero issues. What provider are you with here?

How did you get the tmobile csc? I was having call issues too but when i changed the ims settings and enabled volte calls got better but when im in a area with bad lte service calls are taking long to go thru. Could that be a csc issue? Also i dont see a link that the op is saying you provided that fixed the problem

Extracted it from the T-mobile ROM and dropped the files into a CSC changer flashable zip for an S8, modified it so it would work on my Note 8 and flashed it.

i spent 45 mns on t mobile call then i realized why i'm calling them since my phone isn't a t mobile one lol
i flashed Kalm file

i don't think he's gonna be too happy with his file being modified like that

yeah it's in my thread here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73858645&postcount=17
But I redid it last night after someone confirmed that they didn't even need the Note 8 CSC files, and I deleted out everything for other carriers so the new file is only about 120mb instead of 300-something.
I can post that up after work if you want to wait, uploading is blocked here at work for some reason.
Have to add that wifi calling still doesn't seem to be working, but VoLTE does since calling does not drop me from LTE. I have no menu settings for either still, but after doing a full reset, reflashing etc I have the wifi calling quick toggle but it doesn't seem to turn on all the way - the "on" color is light-grey instead of white like everything else (dark grey when off) and in the System UI tuner app, no icon is set for Wifi Calling or VoLTE.

Yeah it's in my Exynos T-mobile CSC thread but I've got a better smaller one now. I took a pack that @TEKHD made for the S8+ F variant and switched out the files with Note 8 T-mobile files but there is a little bit left to go to make WiFi Calling work on our N950N, VoLTE works, HD voice works, video calling works, but I'm still trying to figure out what's missing for WiFi calling. It's menu isn't even showing up yet.
Current flashable zip is only 88mb and I'm fairly sure whenever I figure out the remaining files that need to be copied over it won't be much larger.

I'm about to do a factory Odin flash to stock and test the latest version - if it works properly I'll post it up with a link - though I don't want to step on anyone's toes since the core script and idea belongs to TEKHD.
Fair warning as far as right now I still haven't figured out why WiFi Calling is missing, I set up this the same way he has his S8+ pack for their F variant aside from adding a few framework files that I found referenced in the Tmo Wifi Calling apk that don't exist on a factory Korean N950N but are on the Tmo ROM, and my theory if this next attempt doesn't enable WiFi Calling is that the N950N is fundamentally either just missing more files that need to be in place for it to work and I haven't found them yet, or that it has different/incompatible versions of some files that the T-Mobile Wifi Calling needs to function.
In other words I have 2 more things to test, then I am going to try fully wiping, flashing an N950F-based ROM and apply the T-Mobile WFC pack to that, since the S8/S8+ options that enable it for those folks are for the F variants, not the N variant but the F and N have the same hardware.

Sounds good. I went through the same things with my Note 2 years ago. I figured it out and got WiFi Calling working.
Fwiw, I have no interest in Wifi Calling on my Note 8, as my signal (also T-Mobile) is always good, and I use Hangouts (or whatever) when I'm on Wifi, for free calling.
I don't have Note 8 yet, but will order soon from the same seller as you.
Do you have any other suggestions for getting everything up and running for T-Mobile (except WiFi Calling), or is simply flashing the CSC file?

If you don't care about Wifi Calling yeah I would say just root, custom kernel, and flash the CSC. You'll get VoLTE, HD voice, video calling etc

I just got my new unlocked S10 all set up dialed in. Model SMG973U1ZBAX.
I put in my AT&T SIM card in and went to turn on Wifi calling and couldn't find it. I've since learned that if you have an unlocked phone, you can USE the AT&T network, but you can't get Wifi calling (which is a must for me), Visual Voicemail or HD Voice.
Instead of flat out returning it, can I just flash the AT&T ROM and it would be as if it was a a stock AT&T phone?
I know I would get all the bloatware and stuff like that, But I have to have wifi calling.
Are there links yet to Stock AT&T ROM for the S10? I couldn't find any on the site.
Thanks

Yes you can there's a thread somewhere in here with specifics on how to do it. I know you have to flash thru patched Odin and make sure you also flash userdata and csc to corresponding carrier.

Root is unrelated to firmware flashing. You only need Odin and the fw package. Your computer may, or may not need the Samsung USB drivers to be recognized.
Samfirm can be used to pull updates. You might find it on sammobile or updato, haven't checked.

Sigh. Well. I can report and confirm that you can not use Wifi calling on the AT&T network with an unlocked S10.
Even though I loaded stock AT&T firmware, and was up to date, it just won't work. Gotta return the phone.
I've been dealing with their advanced tech team for over a week and they said that because the IMEI number shows it's an unlocked phone, the system keeps denying Wifi calling.
We actually got it to work at one point. It was a 3 day process with one of their techs forcing my IMEI number through their system. It worked for about an hour, then their system caught it and kicked out it's provisioning.

Galaxy S10 unlocked ATT firmware question
Hi I recently got Galaxy S10 Unlocked phone on online. At first i didnt get ATT wifi calling options appeared in my phone. Later i followed same thread that has 973U ATT firmware links, and flashed using ODIN. I can see all ATT apps and ATT wifi calling option now but i cannot enable it. When i enable it i got a message saying we cannot turn on WIFI calling on this a device and error code EDS0008. I tried to call ATT folks, but they are saying WIFI calling and HD voice is not supported on this unlocked device. Somehow they are seeing 973U1 as model number, but i had 973U as model number. I tried chaining sim to old iphone and I saw WIFI calling is working with IPHONE, but its just this phone I am seeing error. I am not sure what to do now. Did you see this issue ?
Can you give me exactly about the files you used and post steps to get att wifi calling ?
sorry for posting questions in multiple threads

Your best bet is to do an exchange for an AT&T version.
You can Flash the AT&T firmware. But there will be no way in h*** for you to actually enable the Wi-Fi calling feature since they block those IMEI numbers on their servers. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. YOU MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO REVERT IT BACK TO THE OTHER FIRMWARE.

Yes, that post and a couple others. Pretty painless process TBH.
I can confirm Wifi calling works, HD voice and a WAY WAY WAY better signal. Prior to flashing to ATT I could barely use my phone on my subway ride home... Now it works very well the entire trip.

I successfully flashed and am now seeing the ATT bloatware but WIFI calling and visual voicemail, etc are saying "OOPS! We can't turn onWi-Fi calling for your account. I'm going to attempt to flash with the clean boot version and see if that changes anything. Did you do anything different or additional to get it up and running. Not sure if it matters but I'm in Southern CA.
Has anyone else been successful in adding wifi calling, hd voice, etc?

I'm away from the computer I did it on but I used the SAT1 firmware file and then manually updated all the way back up to the June update.
The updating part is/was a major PITA as it wiped the device each time. I'm hoping i'll get OTA's when they are released. Time will tell.
I'm in the Bay Area on ATT and it activated right away on the base february firmware I installed initially. Also I don't think I did any userdata stuff as I don't remember choosing it... I'll update this post tonight when I can check all the files I d/loaded on my machine at home.
Couple other things:
I can't find it right now but I followed a post that stated to make sure the SIM and SD card were removed during the flashing process. Not sure if that makes a difference.

did you ever run the unlocked firmware on ATT or did you flash to att before ever using an active sim? i had heard some speculation that once you run an unlocked phone, then it gets registered as "non att"... keep in mind this is 3rd hand info and hearsay.
edit. i guess i failed to read you short post... i see "prior to flashing" spelled out for me right there....

I'm away from the computer I did it on but I used the SAT1 firmware file and then manually updated all the way back up to the June update.
The updating part is/was a major PITA as it wiped the device each time. I'm hoping i'll get OTA's when they are released. Time will tell.
I'm in the Bay Area on ATT and it activated right away on the base february firmware I installed initially. Also I don't think I did any userdata stuff as I don't remember choosing it... I'll update this post tonight when I can check all the files I d/loaded on my machine at home.
Couple other things:
I can't find it right now but I followed a post that stated to make sure the SIM and SD card were removed during the flashing process. Not sure if that makes a difference.

Any chance you found those other posts you mentioned above? I continue to be unable to get wifi calling on my phone.
By the way for anyone else, while I did not get wifi calling, visual voicemail, etc. I do see an improvement on my cell reception over the ATT network.
Ops sorry, thought I replied.

I followed those steps exactly.
Hi All, I'm trying to make my T-Mobile Note 9 work on AT&T. Using odin I put on the latest ATT version on my phone that I could find -- N960USQU1ARG6. It boots and works fine, but it shows Android 8.1, I don't get wifi calling or there's no place to turn on VOLTE, and when I say update software it says "software up to date." So, I'm assuming that ATT still doesn't think this is their phone.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks!

Att has Pie firmware for the Note 9. Just do a search for the newest Pue update and flash it using Odin.

Thanks for the response. That will fix the Wifi calling and VoLTE too?

That I do not know for sure. It doesn't hurt to try though.

Well, it might. I'd really like to understand what's wrong with it before I flash more.

Well the first thing you could do is do a factory reset, or verify with At&t if it's a feature on your account. Not sure how theirs is setup compared to T-Mobile's Wi-Fi calling. It won't hurt to flash unless you've got stuff you need to backup and have no way to do so.
I don't think anything is wrong with your device. All of the N960U devices are the exact same. The only difference is the software. You don't even need to flash a different firmware for it to put the carrier bloat on the device based on the sim card inserted. It's already included in the Software package on the device, just dormant.
I can't see AT&T Mobility (or any carrier, really) willingly remaining in the trailing position vs. the UnCarrier (who has offered Wi-Fi Calling as a feature (even to their MVNO customers) for over a year - yes, I have had it that long personally) - the only time I don't use it is due to support of the *router* being iffy (some residential routers have issues with Voice over Wi-Fi; the same applies to some business routers).
I went to ATT as well and it took some time for me to see the update to 9. Not sure, when I was with T-Mobile it always showed updates right away. For ATT, I was able to find the ARJA firmware with a CSA7 update that expedited the process. It also took around a day for wifi calling to show up. ATT is just slow to enable things perhaps?
