My mobile provider (O2 Germany) used to have a special app that allowed WiFi calling on their network. It had its limitations, but it worked. They have now discontinued that service and state you can use WiFi Calling, instead.
Although I did find a WiFi Calling On/Off switch (Settings/Search/Wi-Fi Calling), I could switch it on and nothing else would happen. If you went back to that switch, it was switched off again.
I read on the O2 forum that Wi-Fi Native Calling requires at least a Snapdragon 805 and the Yotophone 2 has a Snapdragon 800.
Is there any way of using Wi-fi Native Calling on the Yotaphone 2 - perhaps with a special App?

I'm trying to get the wifi hotspot to work on my wildfire, I can connect everything - wifi, mobile network etc. But the wifi hotspot doesn't work anymore - even though it has worked in the past. When I activate everything under the Portable wi-fi hotspot check box it says "no mobile network"
Can anyone help me out?
I'm using sunbabh ROM on T-mobile UK
Just check ur kernal because I heard the new jacubs has WiFi issuse so install his version 4.1 that one works fine no issuses
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
I'm not using Jacobs kernal, all ive got is sunbabs. It has worked before using the same setup
I'm on t-mobile too and i noticed this feature has stopped working (on my desire) even though it has worked in the past. All I can assume is that t-mobile have blocked this service and now only offer it with their (more expensive) web n walk max plan - the same plan you need to have to be able to make skype and voip calls over 3G.
I doubt its a kernel issue because it worked fine when i was on holiday in India where I purchased a 3g sim card with an unlimited data plan.
Update:
Just out of curiosity i tried the wifi hotspot again and to my surprise it now works. I didn't change any of the settings on my laptop or the phone. So i guess the service isnt just available on webnwalk max. I don't know what causes the problem - sorry.
I have the T-Mobile version, VoLTE is on, Wi-Fi calling is on, video is enabled....
No matter what network I can't video call. I've tried with friends on Verizon and T-Mobile, same phone.
I'm unrooted, on nougat, and beyond peeved an advertised feature won't work on stock device.
Has anybody gotten video calling to work?
Clearly nobody here either uses this feature or has this phone anymore.
Thanks for the total and complete lack of help, but I fixed it myself.
Wi-Fi calling must be enabled and activated in someway in order for this feature to work. I had to force Wi-Fi calling on and preferred, then changed it to cellular preferred.
I had video calling it was working then I updated my phone and now it's gone:/ how can I get it back?

How do you for wi-fi calling on?
Whenever I try video calling someone, I can see myself on the screen but the other person isn't showing up. The other person says it's the same on their end.
I just now switched from AT&T to T-mobile because I finally got sick of AT&T for various reasons including very high prices. The network lock is removed. How can I get wi-fi calling to work on this phone? When I try to enable it, I get "To enable this service you must confirm your emergency address.". Then I see "Wi-Fi calling lets you make and receive calls over Wi-Fi with your AT&T account. When you use Wi-Fi Calling, information about the country where the Wi-Fi connection is made will be sent to your carrier. Learn more about Wi-Fi Calling.". The last two words are a link to https://m.att.com/shopmobile/wireless/features/wifi-calling.html?referrer=. It seems there's a hangup of AT&T versus T-mobile. What should I be doing to get this working?
In case anyone is wondering, this particular phone is being used because it must be kept unrooted. I have a G900T that has been rooted.
Hello!
Newbie here. First post. Have been lurking around regarding Sony's refusal to unlock WiFi calling (VoWifi).
I have a Xperia Z3+ dual sim (E6533) and I am interested in WiFi calling because I don't want people to know when I am out of the country. Dialing 800 numbers (three work numbers I need to use are 800 only) also works when using WiFi calling outside the US. My previous Xperia was a unlocked t-mobile single sim model. It was great until it died. I didn't know that WiFi was a t-mobile only thing and now I am stuck with this dilemma.
I played around with the hidden access menu (#*#*4636*#*#) and I was surprised that WiFi calling is possible but deactivated (under phone info). Activating "Wifi Calling Provisioned" doesn't do any good, since it goes back to OFF once you access the menu again.
Anybody know if it IS possible to activate Wifi calling? Is this a phone or carrier restriction? Is there a firmware mod that can eliminate this restriction?
Thanks!
So I got myself the LTE version of this tab.
Was hoping wifi calling was an option.. But it doesn't seem to support it (at least I can't seem to find the option)
I have a tmobile Sim card and when I use it on my note 8 I can see the wifi calling option.
Anyone know a way to enable this? Or the the s5e simply not support this feature.?
I think this depends on your cell provider as some networks do not support WiFi calling

Yeah it does,
In my case my provider does support wifi calling and using the same Sim card I can activate wifi calling on a couple of other devices I have., just not on this tablet because I am unable to find the option.

In that case I would take your device to either the local high street retail branch of your Service Provider or a Samsung Service Centre and ask them for further assistance. There is a chance that the SGTS5e does not support WiFi calling as it is a tablet afterall.
