They do, T-Mobile's VoLTE is nationwide, if you have LTE with T-Mobile you will have VoLTE. By the way, how do you know whether a call is going over WiFi or the cellular network? I have it enabled in settings, but when I call there is no indication as to whether the call is WiFi or cellular.

I still haven't been able to correct. For starters, I allowed Wug's to wipe before I went back to 22c. I have also performed a full wipe in twrp since getting on 28e. Still only showing 24 GB. Any other ideas?
[Nexus 6  General] kolyan:
There are 2 indications, one when you pull down notification bar you can see it says T-Mobile WiFi calling and 2nd when you make a phone call, in dailer it says WiFi Call

I have wifi calling enabled, but I'm not seeing any of those indications in the notification... Is there something else I need to be doing
[Nexus 6  General] ssmithri:
When you type "adb devices" does it give you back a device number, or is it blank?

I was having the same issue. I let the phone boot up and touched the USB debugging notification on the home screen. When I did that I was asked if I wanted to allow a connection with the computer. I checked the "remember the device option" and clicked yes/allow... then without unplugging the phone powered off, then booted into recovery.

I then typed "adb devices" and a device number was returned. I was good to go from there... selected sideload via adb and then typed the sideload command on the computer. Bada Boom... update done!

TL; DR - the issue is with your adb connection/permission from the phone.
[Nexus 6  General] kolyan:
Don't know, have u checked to use WiFi preferred ?
[Nexus 6  General] justibasa:
It seems there are lots of problems with Wi-Fi calling right now. May just have to be patient and let it get sorted out. Hopefully it gets fixed soon.
[Nexus 6  General] TechnoGeek2134:
Test it further by enabling Airplane Mode and then just turn on WiFi. It should flip to WiFi Calling mode since there is no other cell connection possible

I don't know, I mean I'm on MetroPCS and the WiFi Calling works flawlessly for me. It's weird that an actual T-Mobile customer would have an issue
[Nexus 6  General] justibasa:
Are you completely stock? Unrooted, encrypted?
[Nexus 6  General] TechnoGeek2134:
Yes, I am completely stock. Unrooted and encrypted
[Nexus 6  General] justibasa:
I'm thinking that may be the problem right now. Going to go completely stock this afternoon.
[Nexus 6  General] kolyan:
Can be rooted but must use stock kernel
[Nexus 6  General] cmadrigal:
Make sure your E911 Address is set then Wifi Calling will work.

Make sure you logged into your T-Mobile account and have set up your E911 address if you are experiencing the dialog box to contact your carrier to set up this service. After that wifi calling should work.
[Nexus 6  General] TheAmazingDave:
I'm just here to tell you how F'ing stoked I am to finally have WiFi calling. I made a crystal clear call this morning, it was fantastic! I usually get **** signal in the house. No more worries. <3
[Nexus 6  General] californiarailroader:
I can't get WiFi calling to work, I'm on Metro PCS so maybe that's why. I have it enabled in settings and set to WiFi preferred, so I don't know what's up. I tried the airplane mode with WiFi on, but I get an error message saying I need to connect to a cellular network to complete a call.

Edit- I'm completely stock, just rooted with Twrp Recovery, but those two things should have nothing to do with WiFi calling working or not working.
[Nexus 6  General] simms22:
wifi calling all depends on your network and how they do it. it should only be working with tmobile or project fi. i know tmo owns metro pcs, but i dont think they do wifi calling with metro pcs.
[Nexus 6  General] californiarailroader:
I got it working- http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3061595
[Nexus 6  General] simms22:
great, it seams metro pcs does use tmos wifi calling.. :)
[Nexus 6  General] TechnoGeek2134:
Hey, I'm on MetroPCS and for me WiFi Calling worked as soon as the OTA finished installing and I enabled it in the settings. Am on stock, unrooted and locked bootloader. Glad it's working for you now, but I didn't have to jump thru any hoops to set it up, just thought I'd let you know.
[Nexus 6  General] tennandcoz1:
There's a flashable zip I installed....and now everything works great... I must say my Nexus 6 is everything I thought it would be now.... Wifi calling is crystal clear,Phone seems much more snappier...my data is unbelievably fast and my phone is just much more responsive.... For me personally this is one of the best updates I've had... I would like to thank all you who helped.
[Nexus 6  General] californiarailroader:
Awesome, thanks!
[Nexus 6  General] LordGrahf:
Is it safe to assume that this will be another factory-image-less update like LMY47M?
[Nexus 6  General] YankInDaSouth:
Not necessarily ... https://plus.google.com/114845009227159887898/posts/avGfoSBXwE6
[Nexus 6  General] LordGrahf:
Awsommme news! Thanks for sharing
[Nexus 6  General] TechnoGeek2134:
Speaking of which, why wasn't LMY47M never posted? That's just odd considering even the so-called Verizon build is posted there...
[Nexus 6  General] LordGrahf:
Wish I knew why, was super annoying. Honestly, this would've been it for me on this phone if the facrory image was not to be posted again. Resetting to stock to get the updates is such a waste of time.
[Nexus 6  General] vvveith:
Nowhere to be found.

I don't see any T Mobile builds posted. As usual. They really killed my experience with a Nexus device.
[Nexus 6  General] Smallsmx3:
Who T-Mobile? They are the only carrier that carried nexus devices
[Nexus 6  General] californiarailroader:
Actually, AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile and U.S. Cellular carry the Nexus 6.
[Nexus 6  General] Smallsmx3:
Yes the 6... I'm talking about the nexus line.... From the 1 to the 6.... Although I don't think anyone had the galaxy nexus except Verizon
[Nexus 6  General] snoopy1e11:
Is there anyway this can be installed without a computer? Or since I don't have one will I just have to wait until it's pushed to my phone just got my nexus 6 yesterday from T-Mobile
[Nexus 6  General] californiarailroader:
Oh, yeah, that's true.
[Nexus 6  General] Smallsmx3:
Your going to have to wait. Or u could flash a custom ROM

Dude check this site http://www.randomphantasmagoria.com/firmware/nexus-6/shamu/ for all images and OTA`s. Specific carrier images are usualy not posted in the Google dev. site.
[Nexus 6  General] giant22000:
Is wifi calling picky about which access points it will actually work on?

The reason I ask is yesterday Team Nocturmal released a rooted LYZ28E build that I flashed along with the new radio's and the wifi calling worked great at my girlfriends house. MMS/SMS worked flawlessly as well. Last night at work I decided to give that new build some xposed/gravity box love, both of which worked great on the LYZ28E build except I couldn't get wifi calling to work on the wifi at work. So when I got home this morning I restored a nandroid that I'd made prior to installing xposed/gravity box and still no dice on my home wifi. So now, I'm completely stumped. I'm back to a state that wifi calling WAS working, but this was at my girlfriends house. So now I'm scratching my head wondering if wifi calling is picky about which access points it will actually work with...

Any ideas?
[Nexus 6  General] SFVDan:
I just noticed after the 5.1.1 sideloaded update that I have an ADDITIONAL entry in my APN list. It looks as though there's a separate APN entry for "T-Mobile MMS" and it doesn't have a radio button next to it.

Is this new or did I miss it? I did a "reset to defaults" and it's persistent.

Everything including Wi-Fi calling is working swimmingly, by the way. This looks to be the best update so far.
[Nexus 6  General] Smallsmx3:
That entry is for sending and receiving MMS over WiFi. There is no need to toggle it since it works independently of the apns
[Nexus 6  General] SFVDan:
I figgered that was the case. It just surprised me that there was a new entry that hadn't been there before.
[Nexus 6  General] eservant:
has anyone had an issue with google maps being inaccurate? It shows me almost a mile from my actual location.
[Nexus 6  General] k0smo86:
How can I get from LMY47D to LMY47M??
[Nexus 6  General] TheAmazingDave:
By downgrading to LRX22C and accepting the OTA to LMY47M is probably the easiest way. As soon as you boot LRX22C it will prompt you to update to LMY47M.
[Nexus 6  General] jcsww:
There are some stock ROM's you can flash to make it easy for you. There is also a stock ROM for the new E as well. If I wasn't on a phone, I would post the links but you should be able to find them easily enough.

[Nexus 6  General] rasengan82:
Lol tested WiFi calling from my basement where I have no signal but full WiFi. Looks like WiFi calling fails when you have no cell signal. I went upstairs and WiFi calling started working again.

Edit: had to turn WiFi calling off and on and it worked. I guess it is not as stable as I thought.
[Nexus 6  General] TechnoGeek2134:
You can also turn on airplane mode to force cell connection off and then turn on only WiFi to test, as well. I've done that and it works for me still. Pretty stable on MetroPCS.
[Nexus 6  General] MedicStuder:
I tried and it wouldn't work because of airplane mode. I have set prefered to WiFi. Also I want to note that sometimes under cell connection it says T-Mobile WiFi calling when connected to WiFi and the drops to using the cell towers instead of WiFi.
[Nexus 6  General] DebauchedSloth:
Same here. Seems to be related to my router. Maybe? I definitely see this at home, but have seen rock solid Wifi Calling elsewhere.

Here, I see Wifi calling, then after some period of time Wifi calling switches to T-mobile cell, and I cannot get it back. Killing imsdatadaemon will bring back Wifi calling. Very strange.
[Nexus 6  General] TechnoGeek2134:
Have you tested it at other WiFi locations? Does the same thing happen at them?
[Nexus 6  General] rasengan82:
I can confirm WiFi calling disconnects randomly. It worked all day yesterday but when I woke up today it was not. My wife's S4 WiFi calling has no issues.
[Nexus 6  General] giant22000:
Mine worked for the first day I upgraded to lyz28e and has not worked since... So frustrating! I've never had a phone with WiFi calling before so I'm not sure if its picky about certain WiFi networks you join or if it should work on all WiFi networks. Anyone know?
[Nexus 6  General] DebauchedSloth:
This. It should work well. My other T-mobile phones work perfectly here.

This implementation is clearly not ready for prime time. Try killing imsdatadaemon once you've lost Wifi calling. Wifi calling will come right back. I may just write a little app which looks for the phone being on Wifi for more than a minute but not being on Wifi calling, and then killing imsdatadaemon if it sees this situation. That would probably fix wifi calling, right there.
[Nexus 6  General] YankInDaSouth:
Sorry for the noobish question, but how does one go about killing imsdatadaemon? Searched fort it on my phone but do not see it.
[Nexus 6  General] liqice:
For anyone wanting to sideload 5.1.1 but not wanting the forced encryption (assuming your userdata partition is already unencrypted) - I found a way to sideload 5.1.1 without needing to encrypt userdata and without losing any data.

Hope this helps folks! So happy to have Wifi calling now on my N6.

[Nexus 6  General] mbegel:
I think the wireless router settings must play some role in whether or not wifi calling works. It is great at home, but it doesn't engage at my work (we have heavily locked down routers). That is too bad as I'm inside a concrete and steel building and have poor cellular signal.

Does anyone know how to debug the internal wifi calling decisions?
[Nexus 6  General] TechnoGeek2134:
Apparently, WiFi calling requires certain ports to be opened, or at least not blocked by a firewall. Look here: https://support.t-mobile.com/thread/50725
[Nexus 6  General] elsif1:
If you guys go to About->Status->SIM Status, does it say IWLAN or something else? On mine, even when it didn't say "T-Mobile WiFi Calling", it would show IWLAN and Cellular Network: Disconnected on that screen. Not sure which to believe. I'm starting to think that we are in fact still using WiFi calling despite what quick status shows.
[Nexus 6  General] MedicStuder:
You might be right. I did what you said and for sure I was on IWLAN. While in that menu i turned off wifi and it switched to LTE. I then turned Wifi back on and it again shows IWLAN. The celluar Network State also changed.
[Nexus 6  General] mbegel:
Can you make calls in airplane mode?
[Nexus 6  General] kolyan:
Yes
[Nexus 6  General] DebauchedSloth:
You go to a shell prompt (either terminal or adb), ps | grep imsdata and then kill that process.

In less than a minute, Wifi calling will reconnect, at least for a while.
[Nexus 6  General] Circaflex:
Looks like the factory image is up, but google has labeled it T-Mobile Only https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
[Nexus 6  General] rasengan82:
I'm guessing the wifi calling implementation is tmobile specific.
[Nexus 6  General] nfremd:
Is there any way to flash the radio on a custom rom (Chroma 5.1.1) and get wifi calling? Or does it require it from the OS side?
[Nexus 6  General] mistertek:
I guess no going to another carrier after updating to this build?

I've been running LMY47I on Verizon using VoLTE for months. Voice calling over LTE and Wifi are great!
[Nexus 6  General] MedicStuder:
Anyone correct me if I am wrong but I believe for WiFi calling to work stock kernal needs to be used not just the radio. Atleast on other T-Mobile devices I had with WiFi calling the kernal had to be stock as well to work.
[Nexus 6  General] Lucke:
um... what? airplane mode disables all communication radios (cellular and wifi), so how can you make calls if you're not connected to anything?

unless the functionality of airplane mode has changed in the last year or so, you're out of luck on this one, and i, for one, am glad. i don't want to be listening to your (no offense) worthless conversations, and baby's crying, and everything else that goes on.
[Nexus 6  General] Circaflex:
As of right now yes; but I could see Sprint flipping the switch to allow it later on. They are part of the Project Fi launch, and Project Fi will support WiFi calling, so I think it is entirely possible.
[Nexus 6  General] giant22000:
Wow, after clean flashing multiple times killing imsdatadaemon is the only thing that has regained Wi-Fi calling functionality for me! How would this work, but reflashing the rom would not?

Thanks so much!
[Nexus 6  General] Mi|enko:
Turn on airplane mode, then turn on Wi-Fi. Then, all radios are off, with the exception of Wi-Fi. This functionality has existed for years, but only recently T-Mobile also introduced Wi-Fi Calling while in Airplane mode.
[Nexus 6  General] C0dy:
You can turn on Wifi in airplane mode. When you enable airplane mode, just turn on wifi and it works.
[Nexus 6  General] nfremd:
Darn I am loving using hells & Franco kernal. hopefully not.
[Nexus 6  General] DebauchedSloth:
Don't worry, chances are you'll lose it again. And need to kill imsdatadaemon again...

I actually ran down to T-Mobile and grabbed a cellspot router just to see if it works better. Guessing it does, but who knows.
[Nexus 6  General] Smallsmx3:
I have a cellspot and am always on WiFi calling. Haven't had a disconnect
[Nexus 6  General] Lucke:
thanks for the explanation. i've never tried that so i didn't know that you could turn wifi back on after airplane mode (seems a little counter intuitive though)... learn something new every day :good:
[Nexus 6  General] ksujace:
Seems this update doesn't work so well. I applied the update.zip to my Stock M image. All my calls are still going directly to the cell network, rarely my phone will say "T-Mobile WiFi Calling" but the calls I make still go to the network.
[Nexus 6  General] brizey:
Yep, if you look at the settings database, there is a field that specifies which radios are affected by airplane mode (stock=all of them), and another that specs which ones can be toggled back on (stock=wifi, bluetooth, NFC). The funny part is the radio list includes wimax...wonder if there are any wimax phones still hanging around running lollipop?
[Nexus 6  General] kolyan:
Bull, it works fine, I have WiFi calling
[Nexus 6  General] mhuntwork1:
Anybody noticing any improvements on battery? Just sideloaded mine, hoping for maybe a little better battery.
[Nexus 6  General] my95z34:
So, I flashed the factory system.img and am unable to get wifi calling at all. I've even tried the grep for imsdata and I get no output, so I assume the daemon isn't even running. What am I doing wrong here?! lol
[Nexus 6  General] brizey:
Need the kernel, bootloader and radio, too. Kernel and radio are pretty much for sure. I think that the bootloader is an assumption. Just flash Q9Nap's image in TWRP. It does everything...bootloader, kernel, system, radio. His thread is in the main development section.
[Nexus 6  General] my95z34:
Damn. I was using LK for its multirom support. Flashed the factory boot.img to test.

//edit// ****...is it forcing encryption!?

//edit 2// Sure did. Just booted to an "Encryption Unsuccessful" message saying that all of my data was lost. FML
[Nexus 6  General] brizey:
Ohh, man...I am sorry. Should have warned you. I made a conscious decision to encrypt so I wasn't thinking about it. Surprised it failed, though.
[Nexus 6  General] my95z34:
Not your fault. I was under the impression that Google had disabled the forced encryption after 5.1 so I didn't even think about it.
[Nexus 6  General] rasengan82:
Is it required to do fastboot erase system before flashing the image?
[Nexus 6  General] kolyan:
Probably worse now think I can't even tweak kernel anymore
[Nexus 6  General] sn0warmy:
Yeah, there is a real possibility that in order to retain wifi calling, we will no longer have the option to use custom kernels. For me, the worst part about that is having to deal with the washed out and super yellow tinted display color settings of the stock kernel. It's unbearable and I refuse to go back to the stock kernel for that reason alone.

[Nexus 6  General] aergern:
I do wish we could get an answer as to what KIND of update. If one adb flashes the factory image .. is there a way to get the update? Are they just packages and drivers that don't live in /system? I don't know. It would have been better to just get the blobs baked in. Sounds like crap. I'm thinking I shouldn't have bought my N6 from TMO and just gone with the playstore version. :/
[Nexus 6  General] Smallsmx3:
Why? Its the same exact phone
[Nexus 6  General] simms22:
except you can pay $27 a month if you buy from tmo, but need to pay it in full from the play store ;)
[Nexus 6  General] brizey:
It will probably get loaded the same way that the TMo app got loaded from the playstore the first time you booted up stock. The new OEM channel via the play store.
[Nexus 6  General] simms22:
i didnt get any tmo apps on first boot up. i bought mine through tmo. i did restore my google backup of my nexus 5 on first boot though.
[Nexus 6  General] brizey:
Mine even does it on stock ROMs like Sinless. I bet your restore affected it, and I also bet you never run stock ROMs given what I know about you around here [emoji12]

I also bought mine from T-Mobile.
[Nexus 6  General] simms22:
no stock for me :D

and my nexus 5 i even flashed before first boot up. but the nexus 6 i did run stock for a little over a week, since no roms where available yet, nor kernels. but i do think it could have been the restore, since it restored everything onto my nexus 6, just like it was on my nexus 5.
[Nexus 6  General] smclaughlin3:
Don't see signs of update for nexus 6 on tmobile software update page supposedly the update was supposed to come the 11 or the 12??

I just tried this and it worked. Ticked on airplane mode then turned WiFi back on. Waited about a minute to allow to full connect then placed a call. I did notice that the normal ring is replaced by a beep, but call went through. I was on the phone for about 10 minutes with all connections off except for WiFi.
[Nexus 6  General] ksujace:
This did not work for , I turned on Airplane Mode, Enabled WiFi , and tried to place a call and got the "Turn off airplane mode or connect to a wireless network to make a call" , when I tried to text I got "Can't send messages in Airplane Mode"

I was connected to WiFi and could browse sites via WiFi no problem in Chrome.

Same issue earlier today on GoGo on a plane, that's one benefit T-Mobile advertises is free texting from GoGo Wireless inflight , I could not get texts to go out while in Airplane Mode on WiFi. I also tried disabling Airplane Mode and staying on WiFi, didn't work.
[Nexus 6  General] mhuntwork1:
Is WiFi calling preferred turned on? Don't know if it would make a difference but its turned on on mine and I have made several calls in airplane mode.
[Nexus 6  General] biggiestuff:
Do you have any permissions disabled for the caller or dialer? I had location disabled for the dialer from apps ops. I'm not sure if it's related but after I enabled it and rebooted, Wi-Fi calling started working.
[Nexus 6  General] californiarailroader:
It was working yesterday for me, but today WiFi calling refuses to work. Wifi calling on the Nexus 6 definitely isn't ready for prime time, I have a a feeling they rushed it.

Edit- Yesterday, it showed WiFi calling in the drop down menu, today it only shows Metro PCS, though under SIM status it shows the network as IWLAN and then cellular network as disconnected. In addition, Signal Check also shows the network disconnected in the status bar, yet all calls go through the cellular network, it's like it's refusing to allow calls over WiFi.
[Nexus 6  General] ksujace:
