Just like a phone. I've seen the icons in pics- but they could just be stubs for call \ sms originating from a separate phone.
TIA
PS also wondering what if insert in this the SIM from a Home Internet Gateway...
We will know once Multi-Screen Connectivity become available and functional, but it should be capable as there are those apps pre-installed in the Pad.

Thanks. Although those apps are sometimes only shortcuts for continue phone call & sms on your computer \ laptop.
Most Samsung tablets will make & receive texts as soon as carrier SIM inserted, but it's tossup whether Dialer will natively call or need a paired phone.
Kinda encouraged Oppo tablet makes calls.
The dialer app on the oneplus pad only allows for google meet video and audio calls and the messaging app does nothing, you can try to send a sms but it just says "You may be able to send after inserting a SIM"
The mobile network settings are also disabled and do nothing.
This makes the software experience feel half baked and rushed.

I missed your reply. I'm about to activate it next day or two. I already have a cheap Phablet going with full calling & texting both ways- so at least know carrier isn't blocking anything.
I have no Network settings section at all- I've assumed they would appear upon adding a plan \ be ota'd by carrier.
And I hope the the vaunted connection sharing works both ways \ esp. Pad giving to phones. That would be one of its best values- we have Unlimited Tablet plans for $10.
PS Multi-Connectivity (13.1 Update) has arrived to Pad and phone models 8 thru 11.
Cellular Data Sharing is coming I believe sometime in June right?
(Good Luck trying to ask the idiots at OnePlus support lol!!)
Just got an update on the pad, hopefully that functionality is there .

These days I’m on vacation using a pre-paid connection. I actaved a data connection on it and started getting these usage summary notifications every few seconds (e.g: Data charge is xx.xx, your available balance is yy.yy, valid until dd/mm/yy). Its really annoying because if I keep the phone locked for like an hour I am presented with 50 odd such messages that I have to press OK before being able to use the phone . When I called the technical support, I was told that it is a phone feature usually called “After call summary” or “call summary”, that can be turned off from the phone itself. Since they don’t carry any android devices he couldn’t help me where to find it. I looked around myself, but couldn’t find anything . Can someone help me with this ? Thanks.
Guess no one knows about this feature or how to disable it?
some one help me with this too..
Hi. I don't think it's a device feature. And if it's a "call summary" then it shouldn't inform about data plan. Try searching for a disabling code on your operator's website.
I have a "call summary" enabled - it pops up after a call, and I can disable/enable it only with a USSD code defined by operator.
Remove Call Summary Screen on Verizon Galaxy 8
I was getting an annoying call summary screen on my Galaxy 8s. It appeared to have the green android messaging icon in the call summary and splash screen. I use the Verizon massaging app. I therefore disabled the android messaging app and the issue disappeared. If you have another android, see if you can replace the android messaging app prior to disabling it.
Hi guys,
Unfortunately, the area i live in has incredibly bad signal for all networks and back with my HTC sensation i used to have a orange signal boost app which enabled me to use something called UNA to make and receive calls through my home WiFi.
Since moving to my lovely new One, I dont have this option. I havent even bothered to get on the phone to Orange as they prove to be useless every time.
After doing a bit of research and playing with my phone, I found out about the Internet Calls within settings but it needs account settings.
Like with the 3g settings, are there some generic orange settings someone would be able to tell me that will enable me to use this feature?
Any help would be greatly received!
Thanks,

The Internet Call feature is for those with accounts with the likes of sipgate. You can make free calls to other SIP numbers but will need to buy credit when dialing normal numbers.

Bugger! Thanks for the reply.
Doesnt look like its happening then!
Do you happen to know if the tmobile wifi calling apk is anywhere available. I've had a search and cant seem to find it. I ask as that seems to be available on the one and TMobile kinda the same as Orange as both owned by EE and I just thought id try a punt at the app also working on orange.

Is this what your referring to?
A quick Google search threw up lots of possible links.

Yeah that's the one, but sorry, i should have been a bit more specific, I meant the apk off a one as it seems to be shipped with the one tmobile branded versions so I figured I would have the best chance with that version.
I'm bumping this thread to see if there are any solutions for this a few months on. I also live in a poor area for reception with Orange / EE, but I do have a decent net connection and WiFi. To make matters worse, I get an equally poor signal at work and constantly have to move my phone around to pick up texts.
The EE website has the following information for those unfamiliar, but the feature isn't currently supported in any ROMs I have tried:

Despite this sounding like a fantastic feature, I can barely find any information on the forums or through Google.
Is there a way to make VoIP calls through Android Auto? I read some threads on a different website that said Hangouts Dialer is not supported (yet?), but I'm wondering if there is another way to use VoIP through AA?
I am a Sprint customer on an unlimited everything plan that costs me only $60/month after all the taxes and fees. I get good coverage in my home area and for the most part wherever I've been traveling. Ive been out of contract for sometime, but my galaxy S4 is starting to feel a bit dated. Unfortunately all the new Sprint phones are Tri-band Spark models and don't support simultaneous voice and data unlike my current phone. I just got the Pioneer AVH 4100NEX and I'm loving Android Auto. I frequently use Google Maps when in the car for a long period of time and if I were to upgrade to a new Sprint Spark phone I'd lose the ability to have it running while taking calls in the car. THe only work-around I can think of would be to use a VoIP dialer so that my calls are also via data...
The answer to your question is no. With that said, Maps caches a fair amount of data when navigating, so unless you're on the phone for long periods of time (or try to reroute during a call) you should be good.
Also note Maps now allows you to cache specific areas to your phone which can be used offline for navigation and routing.
Ill try giving the google maps cache thing a try, but I see the potential problem of my crappy galaxy S4's storage capacity being an issue if saving a significant amount of data. Its only 16GB and less than 9GB of that is usable space with the barebones installation - much of that which I've used up with apps that I routinely use. Fortunately it looks like there are several supported apps with either free or cheap ($3/mo) voice data calling available that work with AA. Whether these would work with my native number so as to be a viable option when people are calling my cell number I'm not sure... Text Me, textPlus, Skype, ICQ video calls & chat are currently available so I'll have to check those out. Another option I guess would be to get AppRadio unchained reloaded and use that instead of AA
Does anyone know if there are any plans for integrating data calls through Google Hangouts app (or another VoIP Dialer) into Android Auto in the future?
I don't think Google has made ANY* statements/promises about future features in Android Auto. But feel free to ask them on Google+ or where-ever.
*Only exception I can think of is a positive response to a question about somehow integrating Waze into AA. But no timeline for that.
... But you'd think that supporting VOIP at some point would make sense, unless Google needs to keep the carriers happy.
The long answer is YES, but limited:
Try this: Install AA and WhatsApp in you mobile. Start the AA in your HU as regular. Then, with you mobile connected and with MOBILE screen (type multi-tasking button) and open the WhatsApp in the mobile... then make a VOIP call...
Then you show that at this moment the Bluetooth of the HU routes the call, and the AA in the screen show the call... All as a regular voice call.
Then the only missing feature is that Google needs to include the voice command for VOIP calls (send the command to the message app) and/or using the dialer (agenda).
I hope soon this will included by default!

Thanks for the reply. I'll try this out today and see if that works with my setup. When you say that the calls will be made "All as a regular voice call" you mean that the process of answering/making calls is similar to voice call? I'm hoping that it still would use the WhatsApp VoIP data service because thats the main reason I'd want to use this feature.
Is the reason why you use this method because you also have Sprint and don't have simultaneous voice an data??
Sadly this is still an issue 14 months later, and yes, it's because of Sprint's refusal to allow simultaneous data/voice...
Did WhatsApp solve the problem for you? Is there anything new that would work? I love using AA (phone only, not car) but losing data isn't always an option.

I actually ended up switching to T-Mobile almost exclusively for this reason. I found a good deal with them that allows unlimited music streaming (which works out great with Android Auto) and now I don't have to worry about being able to use voice/data at the same time while I'm driving on longer trips (i.e. using Google Maps, listening to Google Play Music, and get a voice call at the same time). I am using my Google Voice number and get Hangouts messages passed through Android Auto and use the default dialer with my GV number as well.

I hear that, but that 50% off was just too good to give up, even with the drawbacks...
Hi xda. Foolishly purchased this tablet ( LTE variety ) thinking it could make calls, but despite installing third-party dialers including Googles nothing seems to work because it would seem that this functionality has been removed from OS ? Does anybody know if there is a way to enable voice calls ( not VOIP, Skype or any other data call ) ?
Pretty sure the stock dialer should be working.
I have the SM-T395 and it doesn't show any issues on this matter.
maybe copy logcat while trying to use the dialer and we can take a look.
Shedaim,

It would seem that the first step is to try to set "config_voice_capable" parameter to true in "framework-res.apk." This has apparently worked on other tablets. If this doesn't work then perhaps a limitation with baseband version.
found the same issue
sm-t397 cant make phone calls
For a T-397 (and the T-285 as well), you have to have the carrier-side (i.e. your plan) set up as a PHONE, not a TABLET.
You also have to use a phone APN.
If you set them up as a tablet, the carrier-side software blocks the phone function.
If the salesperson is confused about this, just tell them you want to get texts on the tablet.

I've had an ongoing battle with my ability to make calls/text with this device, I initially thought it was at the carriers end but I was perplexed because my SIM works fine in other devices and they are unable to find anything wrong.
Last night I opted to try a full factory reset, I had already done multiple prior in an effort to find a resolution but this time I opted to do it without immediately connecting my phone to WiFi during the setup portion. What I found was two things, all the texts that had failed to come in did and my talk and text was now completely usable. Also the ZTE Locker, which is ZTEs embedded lockscreen wallpaper app was now functioning again. Prior to this it had stopped working and was stuck on one static image (it is suppose to change the lockscreen wallpaper every time you turn on the screen on your device and the images update everyday over Wifi). Unfortunately as soon as I connect my phone to WiFi without any notification I believe the phone does some form of update as within seconds my phones ability to make calls/text breaks along with the ZTE locker. I have attempted to disable any auto updates under the system updates in settings before connecting to Wifi, but unfortunately that does not work as it does not appear to be a full on OS change. Is there any way to disable any updates that are not manually approved when I connect to Wifi? I have reached out to ZTE support and they have escalated the issue to their senior R&D team. However I don't want to wait until a new update before I can have a functioning phone.
Just as a note, the issue appears to be particular to 3G calls (although I am not sure why I am failing to receive some texts). In Canada our carriers do not enable VoLTE with phones that are pretty much not Samsung/Apple or have been bought directly from them. Because of this any out of market phones like One Plus and ZTE that are unlocked and compatible only get calling through 3G, which is normally fine. I can get VoLTE briefly if I put my SIM in a carrier approved phone and switch it to my ZTE and it appears to work (until my carrier recognizes the IMEI and blocks it). So this may be why not everyone is experiencing this issue (if they have VoLTE). Anyways any help would be greatly appreciated as I am at my wits end.
I'm in the USA and have had zero issues on T-Mobile, but when I got the phone I had to manually put in the T-Mobile APN settings to make sure everything liked texts and data worked correctly. I have many T-Mobile devices so I know exactly how to set the APN. Are you sure that your APN is set correctly for the network you are on? I know that most phones set the APN according to the sim card you insert, but I have found many Chinese phones that DON'T. Once I set it manually that usually solves all the problems.
Also, how did you reach out to ZTE support? I'm trying to get ahold of them to give them feedback to DISABLE the obnoxiously loud camera shutter sound in the next software update, but aside from spamming their Facebook page, I don't know how to get ahold of them.
Thanks for the reply, oddly there is no option on my Axon Ultra to add APN settings. Only the default ones are available, although they do look to be correct for the most part I would love trying to add them manually. Someone in another forum who was also having issues (with another Canadian carrier) spoke with a rep and they stated that they would be releasing an update shortly with the manual APN option. My data and MMS appear to be working fine however so I am not too optimistic that will be the fix. You can contact ZTE on their website, if you go to their contact page you will see a little pop on the bottom right hand corner for chat. In reality it is mostly a messaging service as it never appears to be actually online but they do appear to be respond somewhat promptly to message sent via email. Just as a heads up, I don't recall specifically where I think it was a review but I do believe they have made a statement already saying they will patch out the loud shutter sound.
May I ask if your phone works fine with VoLTE disabled? Unfortunately since all non carrier approved devices are denied VoLTE in Canada my main experience has been with 3G calls failing.
I'm in Finland. Having so much problems with call's that i can't use the phone. Problems answering call's and phone also keeps cutting call's. I sent mail to Zte support. Probably have to wait for update and hope for the best.
Hey, they released an update today. It now allows you to input your own APN settings manually. Look up your carriers and add your own. Even though the automated ones were right making my own manual ones has fixed the issue for me it seems.
