Not true the same sim I use in all my phones works fine with the amaze and wifi calling you just have to have the address set

You don't need a special sim card just a newer one that's made for 4g. And you don't actually "need" it , I was able to use WiFi with my older gen sim.
I think its mostly for bete 4g connection.
I noticed a major dif in the phone when I put in the updated sim card.
Just ask tmo for a new sim I'd you don't have one, they shouldn't charge you for it, but then again....lol

I only got WiFi calling working after I got the TM9177 sim card. When I called tmobile they told me I could get one at their store for $20. Ended up getting one on Amazon for $7 with free shipping. I am on energy's latest ROM with stock kernel and WiFi calling works perfectly.
Well it would be perfect if I could send mms over WiFi calling. Has anyone been able to get this to work? A Google search for "TM9177 WiFi calling mms" shows that there are at least a few people that have been sending mms over WiFi. I get very spotty reception inside my apartment and this would be an awesome improvement to this already awesome phone.

I just think it's that particular ROM with some WiFi calling issues. MMS doesn't work over WiFi calling and texting over WiFi calling has issues too. Bullet Proof is working for WiFi calling including MMS that's what I'm currently on until those issues get ironed out.
