EDIT:

did notice under settings > call > down at the bottom it has "internet call settings" and has "use internet calling" with 3 options

For all Calls
Only for internet Calls
Ask for each Call

is this it?

OK, got some info. The Amaze 4G does not have wifi calling at this time, though HTC is working on an update that'll include it. No ETA for that update.

Looks like it's because he had the version 1.35 firmware on his phone. The newer 1.36 version must have removed it.

Maybe there was a problem with it that HTC is trying to correct?

EDIT: Come to think of it, maybe there was is an issue with how the implementation changed between the Amaze and the Sensation. The Sensation used the "standard" method that the previous Android phones used, a WiFi Calling app, looks like HTC tried to change it up in Sense 3.0 and it may have caused some problems.

Talked to a T-Mobile tech, obviously they usually know nothing, but she read a legit sounding email memo, along with the fact that the previous version seems to have had wifi calling, and that our manual says how to connect to wifi calling, you would assume they'd bring it back after whatever they are fixing. (hopefully anyways)

have the new sim in my amaze and I see no sign of wifi. I noticed you have to set up the 911 address on the website, so I did and nothing. I wonder if I have to wait for tmobile to recognize it.

so what is the verdict here? is wifi calling present or not? also is hotspot working? i brought back the gs2 because hotspot is now blocked on it and it didnt have wifi calling

hotspot shows up, but when yoou connected via an outside device it tkes you to tmo's website and shuts off..

WiFi Calling is not there.

I tried to use the hotpot and my computer connected to the phone but when I try to open a website, it times out.

Damm looks like they did the same thing with the amaze... Funny cause it works fine on my sensation. I wS given the new sim card when i got the sgs2 and kept it when i brought it back. Put the sim in my sensation and hotspot works fine
