It is a shame... when I went to China I could still talk to people at home for free which was amazing. And it helps in large buildings.

This is still entirely possible, without using anything developed by T-Mobile. It's not ideal for everyone, but I will be posting a comprehensive guide one of these days. I've been promising people for months, and once mid-terms are over, I'll be able to deliver.

Well using a sip account over WiFi will accomplish the same thing
[Nexus 4 General] woldy2:
The way I see it, this is actually a good thing. If they were to support WiFi calling on the Nex4, then it would need to go through them to get updates. If we got them from Google, then WiFi calling would break, and **** storm of complaints would hit TMobile support lines. This sucks, but i havent used it in over a year and to me direct updates > WiFi calling.
[Nexus 4 General] Ajfink:
Agreed that it's only a small shame.

I'm not the one for long phone chats, anyway.
[Nexus 4 General] idigg:
Here is the solution:

1. Port # to Google Voice

2. Setup a voip.ms account with a DID, setup failovers for no answer to forward to TMo # after 3 rings, unreachable, forward to TMo # after 3 rings.

3. Install csipsimple and register SIP account/voip.ms

4. Install Google Voice app and select "Use GV to make all calls"

When making a call, it prompts if you want to use voip.ms or cellular (Tmo). Incoming calls get routed to Google Voice, route to voip.ms, if not answered after 3 rings/14 seconds it forwards to TMo #. I get my TMo prepaid card for $28.50 a month (callingmart.com), I have the $30/month TMo plan (Unlimited 4G, unlimited text and 100min). I use the 100min up first then resort to voip calling the rest of the month if needed. voip.ms DID is .99 cents per month, and each minute on voip.ms is 1cent per minute, compared to 10 cent per minute after 100min on TMo. So I basically pay $30 per month after tax and after voip.ms fee's, insane.

Using SIP is not the same thing as WiFi calling. I think most people here know how to setup a VOIP account but T-mobile's version was fully integrated into their account/phone #.
[Nexus 4 General] nancyfromafrica:
thats a sad news i even heard that nexus does not support 4G :LTE
[Nexus 4 General] Ken Esq:
That's what we've been doing since moving away from TMo specific phones...it works fine. We'll also use Skype on occasion. Not having the baggage of TMo's proprietary software on my phone is a plus here.
[Nexus 4 General] kuhla:
So can wifi calling be installed after-the-fact in custom roms or the like and used or is it blocked somehow?
[Nexus 4 General] gene_wildhart:
That sucks BIG Time! C'mon Google & T-Mobile. This is the one feature that makes T-Mobile's devices usable practically anywhere~!
[Nexus 4 General] kuhla:
Bumping to try and get this answered. It's very important to me. Could it be as simple as an apk after the fact?
[Nexus 4 General] sf_smith:
I have faith a port from xda will happen

I understand why it is not included, for the pure Nexus experience, but I do love this feature and will miss it (hopefully just for a bit). I know the xda community will work hard to make a port of either the stand-alone app (yes gingerbread mostly, I know) or the settings integrated method (4.#). Even if I have to wait for a custom rom with it built in, esp if it is from the cyanogenmod team, I will be happy to do that.

Long live XDA, making Android truly customizable.
[Nexus 4 General] Luxferro:
If there is a T-Mobile release of the LG Optimus G, which is very similar hardware, and it comes with wifi calling, then maybe someone can make it work on the Nexus 4.

People that actually have hands on experience as to how the wifi calling works would better know if that's possible though.
[Nexus 4 General] george241312:
Of course they won't put it in there they will have to rebuild it from googles framework and then it can be put on cm10 they don't want that ....
[Nexus 4 General] zim2dive:
Why not? ie. if you are a Tmo customer... should they care?
[Nexus 4 General] Blue Bell:
Yes, but SIP outgoing is not free is it!
[Nexus 4 General] genexxer:
$.40 per minute overage...I live in wifi calling..it doesn't use plan minutes.
[Nexus 4 General] csmith8507:
I don't think it works the way you seem to think. If you aren't a T-Mobile customer, it wouldn't do anything. In fact, there are quite a few ROM's out there that DO come with it.
[Nexus 4 General] Burley1:
Exactly, who cares? Defeats the whole purpose of mobility. Walk out of range and it looses the call. I turn it off on my GS3.

Funny what some people call sad news.
[Nexus 4 General] Nitemare3219:
When I used WiFi calling on my G2, it always said that it did use plan minutes?
[Nexus 4 General] wmm:
T-Mobile changed that a while ago. Although by default it still does use plan minutes, free wifi calling is a service you can add to your account at no charge; you just have to call 611 and ask for it. On my G2x, the notification that used to say that wifi calling uses plan minutes changed with the Gingerbread update to say "on some plans wifi calling uses plan minutes."
[Nexus 4 General] vinay427:
Anyone tried Bobsled? I've heard it's the vague replacement for T-mobile's WiFi calling.

[Nexus 4 General] Nospin:
Well, let's say you have class or work in a building that is basically a giant metal box. Click on wifi calling and bam, you are the only one in the office with a usable signal.

People can hate on it all they want, but the fact remains that wifi calling is a major feature on tmobile that kicks the other carriers butts.

Of course it's no biggie that the Nexus doesn't have it, but it is still a kick ass feature.
[Nexus 4 General] g33ked:
T-Mobile wifi calling feature was pretty neat. I used it a lot with my g2 whenever I went to a friend house, for some odd reason in his part of neighborhood, none of the 4 major carriers could not pull a signal. Only way they had signal in the house was thanks to their micro cell they used with their provider. When I would eventually got the nexus s, I realized how much I missed that feature. I don't see it as a surprise that the nexus 4 T-Mobile will be subsidizing will not have wifi calling, since the last nexus they subsidized Nexus S didn't have it. On the up side, I think T-Mobile customers on the unlimited data without the tethering feature added to their plan, should be able to wifi tether for free, since the tethering feature should not be blocked by the carrier, since it running pure Google without any T-Mobile restrictions.
[Nexus 4 General] wmm:
Actually, it appears that it will have wifi calling. T-Mobile now has two different kinds of wifi calling, the traditional one plus something called "IMS wifi calling." The Nexus 4 apparently has support for that kind; however, you need a special SIM card, a "GBA SIM," to take advantage of it.

I think it has been pretty well established that T-Mobile is now packet sniffing to detect laptop/desktop User Agent strings from Internet Explorer and Chrome (but not Firefox). If it detects one of those, it redirects the connection to their "buy the add-on if you want to tether" page. That would be true even if you're using a Nexus 4. Other kinds of network activity (email, SSH, etc.) appear not to be detected/affected.

[Nexus 4 General] bozzykid:
I think it is just semantics. It appears the T-mobile version will not support the traditional T-mobile style wifi-calling. But it seems to support SIP now which will allow standard Android calling over wifi.
[Nexus 4 General] leenypost:
I'm pretty sure some smart developer will figure out a way to make it work even if T-Mobile does not support it. If not, there is always Google Voice+Groove IP FTW

This is the new gallery of android 4.2

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1965895

Don't flash it. you must put the apk and files lib in system (app and lib) change permissions in rw-r-r.

The camera works fine the photosphere is laggy.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] BassBlaster:
Try it, it should work on ICS but if not definetly JB unless the DPI difference creates some problem because I think that android gallery from Nexus 4 which is xhdpi
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] nicsptl:
I installed gallery with camera of android 4.2 . gallery works fine and camera to but in sphere mode in camera we get incompitable error for support that can be solved by changing build.prop but still not able to take sphere photograph due to some missing lib. gallery works fine but get force close when you use sphere button in gallery.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] venetkens:
I can't try it now but in the version on android police photos sphere should work.

this is what you can read on android police :

Note: Original credit goes to XDA and AndroidCentral Forums but the download below contains a camera/gallery build that we patched to allow users of non-Nexus devices to capture and view Photo Spheres.

I' m sorry but I can't post the link for download because it' s an external link
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] venetkens:
I flashed the gallery (android police) 3 time but in the menu there aren't the new gallery and the new camera,there are only the old ones.

Then I fleshed the version on xda but the situation is the same. Any solution ?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mathew1234:
It worked for me.....I flashed it but no luck..then I opened the zip and put the apps in their right places....then I rebooted and I saw 2 camera and two gallery apps....Using root uninstaller delete the old gallery...then you're free to use 4.2 gallery and camera..Don't forget...after placing the apps put their proper permissions ( rw-r-r )

Hit thanks if I helped you :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] venetkens:
I have already tried pushing the apk in system app but in this way the photos sphere don't work for me.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] BassBlaster:
I tried it on CM10 a3 it works perfectly. Photosphere is a bit laggy.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] venetkens:
I have the build.prop of topdroid. Can it be the problem?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cheeyeen:
When I tried pushing it via Solid Explorer it said "invalid CRC" for all the files.

Tried flashing through recovery, no success.

How did you do that?

I tried them on both CM10A3 by dhiru and RemICS-JB.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] venetkens:
I push the googlegallery apk in system app, then i change permission in rw-r-r and owner in root- root. then reboot the device.

For me the gallery and camera work the only thing that doesn't work is photosphere
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cheeyeen:
Now everything works! I pushed both apks into system/app, then pushed all the lib files into system/lib, changed all their permissions and then rebooted. Optional to delete old Gallery2.apk. Everything now works.

Note: photosphere lags. The blue dot moves at a per second basis. Will only take the first picture and lag big time, and gallery would force close afterwards.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mcrocodile:
Wow it is wonderfull and of the most delight design.

I used the .zip by androidpolice but figure out that the apk and libs were send to the wrong folder...

So following comment's advices I extract the zip and put the 2 apk in /system/app and the libs in /system/lib without forgetting to change permission as the other base apks and lib so: RW-R-R (all of this using solid explorer).

I also deleted gallery2 which suck^^.

So far this version of gallery is so SEXY and CLEVER, wow now the interface is very tiny and let a lot of space for taking pictures, etc..

The video mode work also good, maybe better than previous gallery on CM10-alpha3 Paranoidandroid rom.

I never expected something of photosphere, it launch but can't be used.

There is a possibility to retouch pictures, sweet!

The interface is neet, you have to see screenshots, just for that I recommend gallery 4.2.

One little point: no possibility to take pictures with menu button.(ok very small point)

Big problem:Panorama doesn't work for me, am I the only one or did I do a mistake?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Epar:
For me, panorama works fine! The camera is so damn smooth :good: dhiru should implement it instantly if he released another JB 4.1- Build!! :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mcrocodile:
Ok so thanks, I used http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1965895 link for 4.2 camera from xda instead of androidpolice's one and by doing exactly what I said earlier I'm happy that everything working smooth!

I was also able to took 2 pictures in sphereview ^^.

Ho and yes the panorama mode works.

Edit: the spheremod is working, I was able to take pictures, generate a file and then watch it in "3D"

Nevertheless for photosphere, pictures could only be taken following a vertical axe and I had to rotate a lot my arm so the result of my test is terrible: I had with a living room a composition of a door+ the ceiling+ another wall.

So the 2 remains problem with photosphere are that it is too slow, I mean to go to another blue point you have to move a lot and that you could only do it following one axe.

Edit2: The gyroscope seems to be the problem as said here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1965895.

Hi

I've a problem with this mod. When i try flash from recovery the zip file nothing happens. But when i extract the zip file and copy apps to system/app, lib to system/lib and changed permissions, reboot phone. Phone reboot , system loading and reset, now phone boot and go to recovery. I can't boot system normally. What i do wrong ? Can someone post a tutorial, step by step how to do it ?

Thanks for advice and sorry for my english.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cheeyeen:
More info like ur ROM and android version will be useful. But from the way you said it sounds correct.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ymmi21:
O sorry, I use CM10 Alpha 3.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cheeyeen:
Try reflashing your ROM if you can only go into recovery?

1. Extract the files from zip

2. Copy the GoogleGallery.apk and GmsCore.apk and paste into system/app, change permission to rw-r--r--

3. Copy the lib files (total 3) and paste into system/lib, change permission to rw-r--r--

4. Reboot.

5. Check the camera app and gallery if they're working.

That's what I did to make it work in CM10A3 and RemICS-JB, and also JellyBam.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ymmi21:
Hey, thx for advice, but this solution don't work. I did it so, I install titanium backup, I did backup gallery file and uninstall gallery. Next I extract and rename file (like original gallery2.apk) and I go to system/app and copy files (googlegallery.apk and gmscore.apk) with change permissions. Now reboot and everything works fine. I have only one camera and gallery in menu. I change with this solution default desk clock and again work fine.

The one in the middle is a "regular" sim card and the one on the bottom a micro sim card (which has been broken out of the "regular" one). If your "regular" sim card doesn't have these "breaking points" you could also cut it into the right size with scissors, you would need to be careful though...

I am sorry, because this have probably been asked many times, but I have a little more specific question. I have HTC Sensation rooted, and S-OFF. Now I want to send it to the service under warranty, because I noticed there is a dust under my screen.

I know what I have to do, but I dont know which default rom should I choose, so they definitely would not suspect anything. Does it have to be carrier specific or just some random EU rom? I am from Slovenia, my carrier is Simobil (Vodafone).

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
you need to flash one based on your cid which kinda gives you carrier,country info

use this guide as reference
[HTC Sensation] vrocipes:
Thank you, i just read this, however I still dont know how to find the right ruu for my phone. There is no Simobil Slovenia on the ruu list. Any other way to find out which rom to flash? The thing is I dont really remember whether I changed my CID at some point or not, so I might not be able to see/find the correct one.

Thanks again.
[HTC Sensation] vrocipes:
Ok here is what I found out now:

If i check for CID via fastboot i get this: 11111111 (i remember now, i set this)

But if i check it via application CIDgetter i get this: HTC_032

Q: Is this HTC_032 the true default CID or it could be just the info of currently installed rom, which is Viper 1.3.5 ?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

CIDGetter will show you your original CID.

When you check it via fastboot,you will get your ACTUAL CID.

If you are s-off,then , you should be able to run a European RUU and get back to stock.

Then, follow the guide ganesh gave you to s-on.

:)
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
the cid you got via fastboot is the current one you are having

and HTC_032 is the rom cid ..so if you are having stock rom ..it represents your actual cid
[HTC Sensation] vrocipes:
Thank you both for your answers. Hmm, so one of you think that CIDgetter gives you original cid, and one thinks it gives you the CID of current rom. If ganeshp is right, then I still dont know my original CID, as currently I have Viper S 1.3.5 rom :// If malybru is right then I have to flash rom with HTC_032 CID and not just any European rom? Again it is important, because I dont want to get rejected on my warranty...

Thanks again.
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
both of us (me and Malybru ) are saying the same thing :)

cid from fastboot ..gives you the actual/current cid you have right now

cid from cid getter ..will give you the rom cid (in case of viper it is HTC__032)

also based on your country ..i think the fitting RUU is indeed is of European Unbranded one (as malybru said )

if the phone is not linked to carrier (like contract phone ) then European unbranded is the right RUU
