[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Bloodflame:
As a Canadian, I've never had the advantage of T-Mobile's wifi calling, however we have our own alternative which isn't too bad at all. Fongo (formerly Dell Voice). A good internet connection is required though, otherwise you may experience lag and/or low quality calls. On the plus side, you get a new phone number in any locale you want. Most of Canada is covered. So for instance, if you're in Vancouver and have family in Toronto, it makes sense to get a Toronto number so they can call you without incurring long distance charges (exactly what I do ;)). You can even set it up so calls dialed to that Toronto number get forwarded to your actual Vancouver number. Pretty nifty! They have a texting option as well, however that will cost you. Voicemail is included, and is free!

As far as free text messaging goes (and incoming calls, so long as you don't want to spend any money), a great service covering both the US and Canada is Pinger. Once again, you get a brand new phone number, though not as important for texting. The app itself can integrate your carrier's calls and texts, too, if you so choose (enabled by default - I typically disable it).
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] :
Fortunately, for me wifi calling isn't make or break. The bars here are generally 'good enough'. But...

An interesting (though maybe too much of a work around for most) would be to simply fully back up the official rom with wifi calling and your custom rom and then you can switch between them. Need wifi calling at work? Wipe and restore to the official rom after you get there. Want the custom rom at home, just wipe and restore that backup.

I know it works with Clockworkmod's backup and restore as that is what I use with swaping atm to test battery usage between roms. A restore brings back everything exactly how it was left.

(Perhaps the only real issue would be to be done with any OS specific changes. If you insall a new app and want to keep it then another backup would be required or it would not be there next time. Other things like contacts, calendar via google syncing isn't a problem as it just syncs changes between them via wifi. No need to do backups for that* - just wipe and restore any time. Also, the amount of space/time could be a problem if someone has too much stuff.)

*Point to point out, if anything is changed in the restored rom which affects goole sync before google is finished syncing then that could cause something to not be synced and thus lost forever. Unsure which side would lose. Haven't run into it personally. Backups are

always

good regardless.

Other than that, I just ordered cables for usb otg which on my phone requires the official rom (or a rom based off of it). So I want to see how that goes and may [continue] to do the swapping of roms for that. For me and how I use the phone its not a problem.

Another idea

... would be to simply have another phone with wifi calling and do sim card swapping.

Guess this is the post of all about swapping.

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Jaws4God:
yeah ive been plagued with this dilemma as well.. right now i just use the CM9 which has T-Mobile wifi calling. however the calling barely works (just shows call screen then beeps to disconnect) it does do the texting 95% of the time.

i do have the tmobile visual voicemail so it alerts me if i get a voicemail.

i thought about using google voice but it looked to want to import my number and i was afraid it mess up the regular carrier..

i dont like using the apps that assign a different number so i think im stuck with ICS until someone hacks it into JB..

---------- Post added at 03:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:49 PM ----------

i read about this just now and it says it works with anyone who also has the app.. so that would limit who i could contact when on wifi only....

Light ROM with GrooveIP

I'm not sure I understand your question . Are you looking to live without wifi or find solutions to solve bad wifi?

I had a lot of trouble with wifi calling until I did this:

[ROM] RemICS-JB 3.0.1 - The most stable, light and reasonably fast ROM I could get onto my phone

Set up Google Voice account (actually GApps but not relevant)

Install GrooveIP

Configure properly - The startup and answer on calls settings help integrate it seamlessly into your daily calling

Now you have inbound outbound calling, and with a decent connection it's very clean with rare hiccups

I trield Talkatone for a while and while at first it seemed to work out of the box better, I had issues with it over time.

So I went back to GIP and fiddled with settings after reading a lot. Because it works directly over Google Talk protocol and not GVoice, it is more stable and offers a better connection.

Hope this helps you get solid voice over wifi (Free :)

I did pay for Groove IP in the end.

Groove IP does not offer SMS built in like Talkatone does, so if you are SMSing all day as well then look at Talkatone. If quality of calls is paramount start with GIP. I use the GVoice app for SMS
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Jaws4God:
do those assign you another number or does it use ur regular cell number?

does the other person need the app?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] emagin:
Sorry I did not mention this. Yes you use the GVoice as your main #

I converted to Grand Central (with Gizmo) several years ago before Google acquired it, so I'm very familiar with Voice and have been using it successfully for years.

I also use an Obi202 device ($75 for life) that lets my standard house phone make/receive calls on up to 4 GVoice numbers, or other VOIP services (like callcentric, etc.)

So my GVoice numbers ring multiple devices. One caveat is that GrooveIP on android interferes with the ringing on Obi device so I turn it off when I'm in office-desk mode. But I think this is off-topic :)
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Jaws4God:
Im still in the testing phase... but MIUI ICS has the tmobile wifi calling working very well.

(Note it wasn't pre loaded so i did a full app and data backup of wifi calling via titanium backup and restored it after flashing new ROM)

* Update

Wifi calling still is sketchy.. didnt call last night.. just beeps and hangs up. But i have noticed it starts each time i connect to wifi unlike CM9 where i would have to click the app

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] vj1315:
I've been using RemICS-JB v 1.2 on my galaxy w. There have good and bad points.

First the bad points:

- Auto brightness doesn't turn off

- There is no option for vertical portrait on wallpaper

- Drawer effect is very fast that it looked like there is no drawer effect any more

Good points:

- Everything is working. wifi, bluetooth, etc.

- The conservative governor doesn't slow down my device and saves a lot of battery life.

- It looks like galaxy s3

Over all its the best rom for me and its my dailyy driver. There have been updates and the latest update is 1.4 and here's the link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2065556. I wonder if it's worth it to update. To does guys here who used it already, does the issues above fixed?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] 7amada100:
bad points' solutions:

1- auto brightness doesn't work on our phone, to disable you need a third party app from the play store

2- don't know that one :D

3- change the animation speed in developer's options

good points' soluntions:

1-2-3- try thanking the dev for porting it :cool:
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] vj1315:
thanks for the solution :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] pepoluan:

[HTC EVO 3D] FuNcY:
Hey guys,

I'm searching for an case for my evo 3d, which doesn't makes it fat. Is there anything which replaces the original battery cover, just with another design? Normal cases you have to put on the original battery cover, what i hate, because the phone becomes in my opinion more fat and heavier.

Is there anything like the thing described above available? And if it is, can I get this in Europe (Germany)?
[HTC EVO 3D] DjDom:
Personally, I like TPU cases. They don't make the phone too fat. But they do thicken it.

What you're talking about is a good idea, but it wouldn't really offer protection for the corners?

The only thing I can think of right now is one of those Zagg Invisible Shields.

It's like a screen protector that goes on the whole phone.

It offers scratch protection, but for falls, it's not that great.
[HTC EVO 3D] FuNcY:
Well, protection is not that important for me. I just want another backside, maybe I could even design it myself. On my old DHD I had an normal case, and it felt much thicker, what i actually don't like.
[HTC EVO 3D] DjDom:
Maybe you're looking for something like this?

http://www.ebay.ca/itm/RAINDROP-SHA...ries&hash=item3cbdbf498d&_uhb=1#ht_1437wt_906

Or, just buy a replacement back cover? http://www.ebay.ca/itm/New-Black-Re...ries&hash=item5aecfa63c2&_uhb=1#ht_3850wt_906

And paint it yourself?
[HTC EVO 3D] FuNcY:
I can't paint it myself, it would fail so hard when I'd try it, because I am really bad at art^^. Creating an design online isn't possible, or?

EDIT: I just found a website, which offers the possibility to design an own skin for the EVO 3D and other phones. It's like a sticker then I can attach to my phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] DjDom:
I'm pretty sure there are other websites for it too.

But that one looks good for you since you're in Germany.

Remember it's a sticker though, it'll eventually get damaged. Also, it offers very little protection.

@defcomg

Thanks for your awesome work on cameras for our phone! I'm using your fixed-panorama-camera on JellyBam and it works nicely. I've noticed that I can cycle through three cameras: front, back and 3D! The 3D camera gives me a side-by-side preview and actually shoots the photo! The problem is that the resolution is very low (640x240) and there is no option to raise it. Do you think you can introduce the native resolution of 4096x1536?
[LG Optimus 3D] defcomg:
Think it capture the preview size of one side as its 640 x2 240x2 do this clear log cat then run it cycle through the camera's till you get to 3d SBS and save it so I can see what file sets the size and maybe change it
[LG Optimus 3D] dreccon:
No! It is not one side. It's true 3D. I can see it if I cross my eyes!
[LG Optimus 3D] rezzsha:
Yeah just tried it out before the size of the photo is 4040 x 1508 so its 2020x1508 each , so its 3mpx !!
[LG Optimus 3D] dreccon:
I used aLogcat to record starting the camera, cycling from rear to front to rear2 cameras and finally taking a 3D shot.

Please tell me if there's more I can do to help.

P.S. I get almost the same behaviour from the videocamera. I can see the side-by-side preview, but hitting the record button does nothing.

I'm at work now but, when I find some time, I'll make a logcat trying to record video.
[LG Optimus 3D] dreccon:
This is the logcat of trying to shoot video:

I open the camera (it's already in 3D photo), I switch to video and hit the rec three times.

Do you think it might be worth making a logcat of what happens to the screen when 3D is turned on? Somebody running XBSA's ICS could do that.

Man, I'm so excited! I can't wait for the day we break free from LG and have our own 3D running on AOSP! :good::cool:

Re: [ROM][CM10] Cyanogenmod Nightly 10 [clean thread] ( + fix for panorama upside dow

I've found that this ROM(Ricardo's official CM10 for Optimus 3D) has the "FPS(Frame Per Second) drop" issue.

When the booted is ok(fps is about 58 ~ 60), but sleep(lock the device with pushing the power button) and the wake the device, fps is about 45.

You can check this issue with the application "fps2d" that released at PlayStore.

This ROM has new SGX driver that is different with LG's stock ICS ROM.

I think that this driver has the issue. Maybe, this driver has the problem.

Because, this issue doesn't occur in stock ROM and my CM9. (In these ROM, using LG's stock SGX driver binary)
