I started that thread. I can't speak for other carriers but on T Mobile there is a setting under wifi advanced to prioritize wifi, called "wifi preferred". With that, if Wi-Fi calling is working, I get a Wi-Fi call most of the time when I'm near my home network.

Anybody have RCS on T-Mobile with a Pixel 2 XL yet? What's the scoop?

Oh, so it's not available to the public yet on T-MOBILE? I thought I saw people talking about it on the T-Mobile forums.

Hi all, I'm new to T-Mobile with my Pixel 2 XL and wonder if I can get RCS working in the Android messages app? I don't think I have it but it looks like T-Mobile now supports it.? https://newsroom.t-mobile.com/news-and-blogs/rcs-messaging-leadership.htm Of course my phone isn't Tmo branded...

Many thanks to everyone who responded to me on this thread. I was able to go to the T-Mobile store, reprovision with a new sim, and get everything working. Cheers!

I have not. That is a last resort. I'd love to try to reprovision first, and see if you or anyone else has any other ideas. A real shame is that I'm not getting much help from T-Mobile. I've just gotten the usual story about how my phone is not a T-Mobile branded device, blah blah blah. My...

Deuces, thank you, just having access to this info page is very helpful. At the risk of diluting my own thread here's a detailed description of what I found. Sorry for all the details, please bear with me. On that info page before I saw anything, I noticed that my phone number is incorrect. The...

Would anyone who hasn't already specified please let me know if your phone is a Verizon specific device as opposed to the Google Store Pixel 2 XL? No one has said that their Google version has wifi calling working yet and that is the only thing I can think of. Thank you!

I know, I've received that one already. But there's way too much evidence on here and other forms to suggest that it absolutely works with the pixel 2 and can be done. I just need to find someone at T-Mobile who's willing to work on it with me. If anyone has a contact at T-Mobile who they like...

I've definitely done that, and gone through all of the menus. :( To add insult to injury, my wife's MotoX4, on the same account and also brand new to T Mobile, has perfectly functioning wifi calling. Thanks again for all of the responses. I may try going back to the store and having them...

Thank you for posting this picture! This is exactly what I'm looking for and what I recognize from successful Wi-Fi calling on Project Fi recently. I can tell that you feel my pain here and I appreciate it. Another indication I'm noticing is that when I'm in airplane mode and Wi-Fi is on, I get...

Great suggestion, thank you. As I just started my T Mobile service yesterday, I had not entered an e911 address yet, which the store rep had asked me to do. However, I just added it and still have no wifi calling ability. That said, I'm not sure if this takes time to work, in other words now...

Yes. You all are on T Mobile, yeah? There must be something I'm missing.

I don't feel like there's anything significant in here. Any ideas, guys? When you were on a Wi-Fi call that you placed, did you have the little Wi-Fi symbol on the call Page above the name and number? That's what I remember when I would make a Wi-Fi call using project fi on my pixel 2 XL.

Maybe its a software thing. Ill see if I can post settings page to compare with yours.

You guys are giving me hope. Thanks so much for responding. I need to find out what is different about my setup than your two. Did you get your Pixel 2 XL from Verizon? Mine's straight from Google/Project Fi. I don't THINK there's a difference, is there?

Hi, I just switched from Project Fi to T Mobile and wifi calling is not working on my Pixel 2 XL. If I'm in airplane mode, turn on wifi, and make a call, it gives me an error that says "turn off airplane mode or connect to a wireless network to make a call." My searches on the net seem to show...

I lost the screen lottery Hi all, I've played the screen lottery once and lost. The screen on the RMA is even slightly more blue than my original device and Id like to try again. I haven't even activated it yet. What do I tell the Google store, or not tell them in order to succeed with another...

Great! What carrier did you end up with? Also, when you tried the Moto X4, was that the Android One version?

Bummer about your experience with Fi. I don't think I've experienced those things yet. But I'm considering TMobile straight away based on our recent average data usage. We've been on unlimited for years with Sprint so for us to reprogram our habits into the hassle of finding and registering for...

What about simultaneous talk/surf, Deuces?

This is extremely interesting as both carriers are cdma. I don't have one of those phones. I've been told though, that a phone needs a specific software update to enable calling plus, which makes me doubtful of success.

I have asked myself that time and time again. I now do work on a cruise ship and have no cell service but do have blazing wifi. With Sprint, not using an S8 or one of the 3 or so of their other phones that support Calling Plus, I'm completely in the dark for texts and calls for days at a time...

Hi all, My wife and I are thinking that project fi might be too expensive for us with the amount of data that we use. If we Port over to T-Mobile, will my wife's Moto X4 work and be full featured? I mean things like simultaneous talk/surf (very important) and wifi calling? I have the Pixel 2...

I use an app called Audio Recorder and the audio is awful, even at the highest quality setting. Noticably worse than on my last phone, the MotoX Pure Edition. And it sounds much like the video in post #2. Like really, really bad compression

Thx all. Looks like Project Fi is about the same price as the current T-Mobile deal at our level of usage. The advantage with Fi is that you can choose carrier networks on the fly if one or the other isn't working at the moment. But if we use more data any particular month, it could get...

Cool, this is exactly what I want to know. Is Sprint the only one that won't support WiFi calling on the Pixel? I'd like to know what T mobile charges for two phones with 10 gb. I'll check it out. Did you get the $325 cash card for bringing your Pixel? Can I assume you can simultaneously...

Hi all, I ask because there seem to be differences between the features offered. For example, my carrier, Sprint, doesn't support WiFi calling or simultaneous talk/surf on the Pixel 2. They just rolled out "Calling Plus", which supposedly does these things but only very few Sprint locked phones...

Cool, thanks. Mine was built October 26. I'm gonna wait till next week to see if I get the update and then decide.

Where to find the build date? draiken78 hakaida Hi all, Just got my Pixel 2 XL and the blue tint is worse than I expected. Will Google RMA it on that basis? I'd like to try for a better one. Pretty disappointing. Also, where do find the build date? Have we figured anything out about the...

I'm interested in this too as I'm about to activate my 2xl on Sprint. I've been trying to get RCS to work on my MotoX Pure Edition but under Advanced, enhanced features is greyed out. Don't get me started on the lack of features Sprint supports for our new flagship phone..... calling plus...

Same here. Huge disappointment. Been with Sprint since they started and want to use my new Pixel 2 XL but found out it's handicapped at Sprint. Here's what's on the Sprint fact sheet for our phone: Capabilities of the Pixel II XL Calling Plus: No •DSU: Yes •HD Voice: Yes •HPUE: Yes •Visual...

I just chatted again and the agent is saying that wifi calling MAY be something that Sprint needs to activate on your account for it to show up. That's sounds weird to me but if you get a chance, you could call Sprint and see if they will turn it on for you. If you do, please report back...

Will the Android One version work on Sprint? I'm wondering because my wife has ordered the Alexa version from Motorola and we're on Sprint but thinking about switching to Fi. And I don't think the Alexa version works with Fi, correct? I think if we get her the Android One and use it on Sprint...

Thanks for the responses, guys! henderjr, this is what I was afraid of. Thank you both for looking. I'm sort of basing my purchase of this phone on wifi calling so I'm stuck. I can't figure out how Sprint can get away with this....and no simultaneous talk/data, and survive next to the other...

Hi. I just chatted with Sprint online asking if the pixel 2 XL that I'm going to receive at the end of this week, and activate on Sprint, will support WiFi calling. They confirmed that it will but could not provide a link to a list of phones that are supported at Sprint. Therefore I have my...

Same here. Dying Moto X PE, Pixel 2 XL on pre-order, and still want twist for camera and shake for flashlight. What is the best way to get those features on my new Pixel? Thank you.

Did you find an audio channel swap app? Hi, curious if you found an app that will swap audio channels. I need one too. Thanks.

Holy balls. Does that say 2d 7h with plenty left? I'm not sure if this is news to anyone but while I was on with tier 3 support, the tech could read all of my phone's settings in real time. Not sure that is part of Moto ID, or if it's relevant to battery drain but I thought I'd mention it.

Idle drain stats Hi Jay. I charged to full and rebooted last night then took these screenshots this morning. I have everything on, I think, including location reporting, etc. In other words, I haven't turned anything off. I lost 23% in just over 7 hours at idle (though I did receive some...

Thank you Jayboyyyy. I have tried it with wifi turned off and remember getting similar results overnight. I will try again over tonight or tomorrow and take screenshots to post and confirm. I just installed better battery stats per your suggestion. If there are any specific settings you...

My battery isn't measuring up. Dogbone737, this is exactly my usage as well and I have the same question. It's a bit frustrating to see people posting screenshots of 1d 5h with 20% left and I literally can't make it through the day with heavy usage. I am losing approximately 20% overnight...

Google Now voice too loud Yes, very loud. I use a wired headset and that voice blows my head off as it announces the connection. I wish there was a way to control it. An app??

The only one listed as being available in the warehouses is the ATT model, and the price could be different. Give 'em a call.

I don't recall any approval process. I simply called Costco, told them I had a problem with the call quality of the HTC One, and that I'd like to change to the Moto X. As soon as it became available, they processed the exchange. I had to pay upfront for the new phone and will (hopefully) get...

Correct. Sorry if that was unclear. I simply exchanged phones and stayed in my contract.

Today, the Moto X has dropped to $130 for Att and Verizon and $150 for Sprint on contract at Costco.com (3rd party called Wireless Advocates), plus those crazy taxes of course (approximately $50, I think). I bought my X for $200 from Costco two weeks ago and called today for a price adjustment...

It connected with alternate email! Edit: After all that, I just tried signing in with my alternate email address and it worked straight away! I would still like to know if anyone has any ideas why this might happen as I would still like to use my main email with Chrome. Thanks!

Hi, Anybody having trouble connecting to Motorola Connect? My first day with my X was two days ago. I installed Chrome (don't really like it yet), and Motorola Connect worked right away. Really cool feature! Then yesterday I tried it again and could not connect to save my life. I got on...

Sorry to pick nits, but every 6 seconds is not useful for a glance. And don't get me wrong. I am loving my X. :)
