Battery life with advanced calling off vs on

My sister has the s6 on 5.1.1 with prepaid and you cannot turn advanced calling on as a prepaid customer. I read in the past that users that were having bad battery life were turning advanced calling on to help it. I also remember reading when the phone first came out people were doing the opposite...

So whats the answer these days? Is advanced calling worse or better for battery life?

The no contract plan is 5 dollars more a month so I don't want to move her to that plan to get advanced calling unless battery life is better. If its the same or worse it would just be a waste of 5 a month.

Wifi calling isn't working

It connects but when I try and make a call it just plays a recording saying rhe call cannot be completed try again later. Worked fine on my s5.

I have issue regarding HD calling

First of all I disabled WiFi calling along with VoLte.
However, whenever I try calling someone with my phone, it switch to HD calling. And that makes the audio quality sucks and sometimes I lose connection with the other person. I hate this.

The only solution I can find is just disabling mobile data. Anyone can help?

Google Voice voicemail with Advanced calling on

Has anyone been able to get Google Voice voicemail to work on VZW M9 with Verizon's advanced calling VoLTE?
It worked fine without Advanced calling VoLTE.
With advanced calling on, callers get the "Voicemail has not been set up" message.
I've been using Google Voice for a long time on several VZW devices with no problems.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Does WiFi calling work on T-Mobile?

Anyone know if WiFi calling forks on t-mobile? I read that the nexus 6 works because Google tmo and qualcom ALL support it, so what about Sammy and their new baseband chips?

Advanced Calling 1.0 ??

Have anyone get the Advanced Calling 1.0 to work?? I tried and it said the device isn't supported.

We had been calling our "Note 4" by his wrong name.

Short thread, but I discovered it since the release of the Galaxy Note_5.
In fact, The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is called "Note4" without spaces within the Note word and the 4 number, just like the Note5. Just tap Settings, About Phone and look for the Device Name. If you're using an stock rom (or derivated from stock), you will notice that it says "Galaxy Note4". I think Samsung decided to change the name to close the gap with Galaxy S and A series (ie. Galaxy S6, A8 instead of S 6 or A 8).

Well, TL:DR: It's Note4 but we will write Note 4 forever. End of the Story :b

Google voice for internet calling

Is there a way to set up google voice as an internet phone on my i9500 to make outgoing calls and receiving incoming calls using only wifi or mobile data?
I have a google voice number but my problem is I am no longer in the USA and therefore cannot use the standard method.
I would also like for it to be ,if possible, configured straight into the internet calling settings without the use of any other apps who would request access to my google account. maybe im paranoid that way, but I just want to know if it can be done and how.

Wifi Calling With Unlocked AT&T Note 4 On T-Mobile

If I get my phone unlocked (I paid full price for it), I know that going from AT&T to TMO means losing wifi calling. But does that include using a 3rd party app like GrooveIP, or will I lose all ability to make calls over wifi?

Wifi Calling Issues Since 5.1.1?

Anyone else having issues with Wifi Calling since updating to 5.1.1? It randomly goes red on me and shows an error of er081 or er082 and sometimes the Wifi Calling icon just vanishes though in settings its still turned on. I have tried a reinstall of Lollipop, tried a reset etc etc and the only way to get it back on is by turning Wifi Calling off and back on but 10 - 15 mins later it goes red again.

[FIX] T-Mobile Wi-Fi Calling fix for some ROM's

For anyone having problems with doing Wi-Fi calling I have found a permanent solution that seems to work, at least for the Pure Nexus rom. The build dated 8-07-2015 for some reason will not work with Wi-Fi calling. The fix is to apply the radio from factory image from the latest build from Google for T-Mobile which is LYZ28J.

I have a link here to my google drive with the file below:

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bw...Eh1bG5NYnFGb2s

to apply the radio, you must open up a command prompt and put the phone into the bootloader.

the command to apply the file will be: fastboot flash radio "[location]radioname.img"

Example: fastboot flash radio c:\android\sdk\platform-tools\radio.img

I have confirmed this working on two devices running Pure Nexus rom build 8-07-2015. As for other builds this may be a viable option! :D

Nexus 6 and Wi-Fi calling? How do I do it?

I've recently installed the Pure Nexus rom on the Nexus 6. Now I go to where it says preferred connection for call and i highlight "Wifi Preferred" instead of the cellular network.

Now when i'm connected to Wi-Fi i've been told it should say Wi-Fi Calling above the phone call. I get nothing. Unfortunately I don't know what it's using because I have both cell service and wifi where I am. The problem is that this is my girlfriends phone and when she goes to her parents for days at a time she has no cell service and can only use Wi-Fi.

Is there anything I specifically need to setup? And i'm going to assume the stock Messenger app should work with Wi-Fi fine as well?

I just want to be prepared for when she goes. Thank you

Can't use any lockscreen security! Keeps calling 911!!

Anyone else having problems accidentally calling 911 from your lock screen? I have seen several posts online about Samsung phones & people having problems with dialing 911 from their lock screen. I have been using swipe for my lock screen & with that there is no emergency icon. Well I just started using my finger print scanner as my security & when u enable that, (or any other security) it puts a emergency icon on the bottom right corner that you can swipe up to call 911 & since I have started using this at 12am I have pocket dialed 911 twice! Every other security on the stock lock screen has the same thing! Is there any way to disable this? There's nothing in the lock screen ootions! I want to be able to use my finger print scanner without calling 911! I can't believe it's so easy for my locked phone in my pocket to call 911! Is there any advanced users that could look through SQ editor & see if maybe there's something in there that could disable it? I am rooted on Sprint Kk stock. I don't really want to use another lock screen unless I have no other options but seeing how almost anything in our phones can be deleted,changed,added,edited,revamped ect by the geniuses today, I hope someone is able to figure this out.

Unbranded BTU Galaxy S5 best method to get EE Wifi calling

Hello guys/gals, wondering if someone can advise me on getting Wifi calling enabled on an unbranded Galaxy S5.

I am a current EE (uk) customer still tied into them with a S4 contract. Just bought an S5 for a good price and want to take advantage of EE's wifi calling as my signal at home is dreadful.

The S5 i have bought is an unbranded version and comes with a BTU firmware. I am aware that an EVR (EE branded) firmware is required to use the feature.

After hours of googling I have come across the following possible options availible to me, but wanted advice on what is the best method eg most likely to work without problems.

Option 1:
Remove the Hidden.img file (and recompile with total commander) from an EVR firmware (to prevent the Ext.4 error that odin would throw up when trying to flash) then flash this with odin.
Cons: maybe something in the Hidden.img is required by the firmware and phone may be unstable ?

Option 2:
Root phone and edit CSC to enable the wifi calling feature
Cons: Does it actually work ? I know it enables the option but not seen definitive proof it actually works.

Option 3:
Flash the EVR firmware and repartition with a .PIT file, to enlarge the partition thus allowing a branded firmware to be flashed on an previously unbranded phone.
Cons: Apparently this is a very risky procedure and i have only seen one thread and instance of somebody actually doing this http://www.sammobile.com/forum/showt...t=26841&page=2

What do you guys think?

Anyone done it and can vouch for a method (or think of another method??)

Calling - Hangs up

What this could be?

net10 international calling

I bought net10 sim cards here in the US to use with my German phones. Everything is working right now, and I want to add the international calling plan. This process seems fairly easy, but to directly call any numbers, I'd need the net10 apk for international calls which I cannot get because my google account isn't yet set to US, as I still have a 12€ value on my German address.
Is there a way of getting the international calling apk? I've used google, but all links I find redirect me to google play sooner or later which won't let me install the app due to regional restrictions.

Thanks for any advise.

I'm a total noob. Will flashing an AT&T phone with a tmobile rom allow wifi calling?

I recently got a hand me down phone from someone who had AT&T phone. It's an i747, but I unlocked and use it on the Tmobile network now. In Kansas City, about a week after I activated service, they disable some of the frequencies that my phone uses, apparently. I get data and texting relatively fine, but I can't make or receive calls most of the time. The settings don't allow me to activate WiFi calling, I assume because AT&T decided to disable the option, because they don't support it. If I flash my phone with a Tmobile rom, will it allow me to activate that setting, and make/receive calls over the 4g/LTE connection?

Thanks.
