Wifi Calling - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5

Am I blind or is the wifi calling setting missing? I can't seem to find it. Anyone know where it is?

You are seriously blind or ur trolling haha

Yeah it's definitely not there...
Even if I search settings for wifi it's not there:
I hope I don't have to factory reset. I spent like 3 hours setting everything up without root Lol.

Eventually I will. I wanted to stay on rooted stock as long as possible.
Is there any way to edit the features.xml without root?

uh, turn your wifi on connect to a wifi and look again, would be my suggestion

how about trying the default theme? maybe the one you're using may be breaking some of the ui elements.
another user had his tethering missing from settings. a refresh fixed it. i know it sucks to do it, but it might work.

Tried that. WiFi calling settings are present whether you have WiFi on or off.

I tried the default theme and wifi calling is still missing. I did a factory reset and its still missing.

is the wifi calling stuff activated by the sim? do you have the service on your account? could be bad sim or you need to check your account services. hope something works. sucks going through all this with a new device.

What carrier r u on? Just checking because maybe ur not on Sprint. Not sure if other carriers are using WiFi calling.

I'm missing wifi calling as well and am on Sprint. I was missing hotspot also and did a factory reset to fix the issue. Wonder what's going on with missing features. I have the 64gb version.

Go to "more connection settings" it should be there

Call Sprint and have them remove, then add it back to your account.
This has worked for me in the past when all else has failed.

I am on Sprint.

So I called Sprint support and they couldn't figure it out being that it's a new device. I was advised by Sprint support to take the phone to a Sprint store to have them look at it.

i've got wifi tether, got the email that it's been activated, have the icon saying it's working but every time i call out i get either the girl or guy saying they can't complete the call. getting a free ac66 though!

If you edit your quick settings panel its in the extended drop down menu

I too am on Sprint and missing WiFi calling.... about to take the phone in for a faulty software load? I factory reset. Next step is downloading the firmware and pushing to the device and see if that fixes it

He's not trolling. Mine was the same way. Reset... nothing... so now I am downloading the firmware from sammobile. If still nothing, then its back to sprint with it.

If you use Nova, you can get to the settings through creating a activities shortcut on there, and then swap back to Touchwiz, or stay on Nova....it's a work around. This means since the app is installed it is a Touchwiz issue...go figure!

So, i reset to get it back, didnt work. Then I went to sammibile, downloaded the firmware and still no luck. Using Nova I was avle to get the wifi calling started, and then switch back to TW. Im just wondering what else is missing? Think ill just go get a new handset since its obviously missing features...

3G/4G Toggle?

Hello
Does anybody know if any of the toggle widgets in the marketplace work?
I work in an office building and i get horribly inconsistent signal - and i think the constant switching between H and 3G is killing my battery
Thanks!

I don't know about the others but I think we're looking for a widget. A widget will allow you to change your settings on the fly...
Maaaybe I didn't look hard enough but from what I saw that app [Phone info] only allows you to say which connection you prefer to be connected to.
But what if for example I want to be able to toggle between 3G at school and then LTE when I'm outside of school, and 4G HSPA+ when I am at home?
If I am correct, toggling my settings through the app is just the same as toggling the options in the Settings.

[Q] 4G Seems to be Non-Functional...NEED HELP

Okay, so I don't know if my 4G actually doesn't work, BUT, on the way to work for the past three weeks the 4G service in one area has been solid. I have been modding hidden data menu settings, and recently my 4G is not turning on. Could be the tower has been shut off pending the official rollout or while other towers are upgraded.
Could someone check something for me though...if you go to your dialer and enter ##3282# (##DATA#), then go to "Data Profile", and look at "Device IP", is your address 0.0.0.0, or is there another numeric value in that field? Also, if you go to "PDN Setting", does the "internet" field have no value, is the "ota" set to "otasn", and does the "pam" field have no value?
Thank you in advance...need to make sure 4G works. Or, are there any other solutions someone can offer???
Everything seems the same on mine except in PDN Setting, 'internet' is n.ispn
My Device IP is also 0.0.0.0, and the others are as you described.

Would you be so kind to make sure your WiFi is turned off completely and check again? I believe that n.ispn may automatically be set on WiFi...thanks

And just to make sure, under LTE, for 'enabled', you have it On?

Slow Notifications?

Are notifications delayed for anyone else? Sometimes they'll come instantly. Texts are usually decent like just a few minutes late. Gmail messages can come 10 minutes after I get them on my phone. Why is this happening?
I got it so I wouldn't have to take my phone out of my pocket to read emails/texts....but that's not helping right now as I have to get my phone out to see what it is, instead of waiting minutes for my watch to tell me.
The app "Notification For SmartWatch" works INSTANTLY...but this app will only tell me WHO texted me or emailed me...not what the messages are.
I'm using a Nexus 5 and have tried it on stock and also SlimKat 3.8
Are you using multiple BT devices simultaneously during these delays?

Connected to wifi?
I wonder if it's Kit Kat. I have a att lg g2 and when it had jelly bean, it worked great but now I have kit Kat, I notice delays and occasionally I don't even get a notification. I thought I read somewhere that the SW2 doesn't officially support Kit Kat.

Hmm, I guess that's possible. The only other device I have on hand to test it with is a HTC One GPE on KitKat :/
Also, I didn't get any notifications for like 45 minutes tonight, I think they just stopped altogether (yet they had already come on my phone) and so I restarted my phone and then they kicked in on the watch.

I really don't get why ppl feel the need to write this in a thread where the OP has a problem. It's like you're saying since you have no trouble, he must be doing something wrong, or his problem is not valid.
---------- Post added at 09:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:17 AM ----------
If you're on wifi, there might be some interference going on. Try getting on a 5ghz wifi network, and then you can also lock that network down to a specific channel in the router set-up, so it stays clear from bluetooth frequencies.

i've only said I have this device with kitkat and no problems at all, so it's not a kitkat problem. I think it is helpful. Do you get it now?

Yeah I get what you're saying but tbh he did provide good input, so that now we know it's possible for the SW2 to work correctly with KitKat.
And I am on 2.4ghz wifi so that may be the issue.
Another weird thing I noticed is that just now I got a text message, I waited a few seconds for it to come on the watch but it didn't...so I turned on the watch and opened the messaging app, and there it was (the new message) I got no notification about it the watch didn't light up or buzz at all. (and the event app / notification count on the watch still said 0, it's as if it was already read)
So maybe with texts there's no delay, the text is there it's just that I didn't get a notification. With Gmail though I'll have a 15 minute old email and if I look on the Gmail app on the watch it still shows nothing, it will just come in later delayed.
works laggy

[Q] Android system draining battery

About a week after I got this phone, android system began to drain a lot of my battery. I turned off sync, disabled a lot of apps, and adjusted Google now, didn't seem to help. I don't know what else to do. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

I'm having a similar problem except it is Call Standby, no one could answer it with a proper fix, though apparently it is VoIP, sadly we can't disable it on VZW S6.

Try clearing cache in recovery, I heard that fixes it.
For Cell Standby drain see this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...ow-to-significantly-increase-battery-t3109799
Thank you!
Help please!
I would also LOVE some help with this too. Currently, Android system is taking up 29% of my battery resources and cell standby is at 10%. I think I've exhausted all possibilities too. I've tried wiping the cache partition, factory data rest, odin back to stock, advanced calling on and off, changing the WiFi sleep policy and nothing seems to tame either one of those from being at the top of my battery stats. I struggle to get 3 hours of SoT. Gsam regularly says that WiFi active uses 40% - 50% of the battery. Any ideas what's going on or how to fix it? I am amazed at some of the screen shots I see with people easily getting 5+ hours of SoT. Ps, I'm on VZW.
What are you running? Stock now? Clean Rom? Try downloading Better battery stats in the Play Store, see if you can get a better handle on what's running more specifically. Have you removed all Verizon's bloat?

And yes, I've disabled all bloat and unused apps.
What I would do is root, and flash Clean Rom 1.5. Then try that and see how you do after that there's a few things you can do that might help if you don't see a jurassic change. Keep us updated though. But thats where I would start.

You also can try to turn off things like smart stay… auto brightness helps if you turn it off and turn your brightness down manually. And make sure if you do flash a rum to let it settle for 3 or 4 days before your give up hope.

Custom Ringtones

Is anyone else on CRB9 having issues getting custom ringtones for contacts working? Mine will just use the default ringtone. This worked great before the update. I also noticed that my trusted places stopped working too.
This is getting frustrating.
