Hello- I live in a crappy area for reception to say the least! T Mobile seems to be the best option as I have a great Ubiquiti WIFI network setup up at the House- For whatever reason I have been missing a ton of calls and text's when on WIFI calling with the S6.

I didn't seem to have the same issues with the iPhone 6? Any others experiencing the same issues? Do you guys have any suggestions?


Thanks so much!

Yes, I am not rooted and my S6 edge shows "missed calls" when on Wifi. The phone doesnt even ring. It happens most of the time.
I am rooted. TWRP installed. Stock Kernel. Absolutely NO issues with WiFi calling. In fact on all my older Galaxy devices including my S5 I always had issues. So far call quality superb. No WiFi calling issues.

At this particular hour I'm not rooted, wifi calling has worked fine except for one glitch, when I initiate a call overseas it almost invariable fails but if I dial again it goes right through. No idea what to make of that.

Yep, two phones, both have them. Tried to get a replacement, but the guy was being a corporate line tower and it really irritated me that I spend 2.5 hrs dealing with him and driving 38 miles to and from just to get home with nothing. I refuse to pay a restocking fee. Nobody had a white S6 Edge 32 GB. I got stuck with a Black on Thursday due to a lack of stock. Great customer service, right..... The idiot manager asked me "what do I get by giving you a phone from my inventory and lose money and get in trouble for it?" I said it's a customer satisfaction thing. What kind of a person think it's reasonable to lose 10% battery life with a 1 hr phone call on Wifi calling?

If you're missing calls it's because of your WiFi connection. When you have a bunch of devices using the same WiFi they kinda take priority over the phone so you miss calls. Go into a Tmobile store and ask for a FREE WiFi router. It is designed to prioritize WiFi calling over everything else. I have one and it works great

I have just received my third Galaxy S6. I am unable to receive calls about 90% of the time on WIFI. I have the tmobile wifi cellspot router; it makes no difference. I am 4 feet from the router with a perfect connection. My 3 year old HTC One S has no problem making and receiving calls on the network or on the WIFI connection. None of my phones have been rooted. I also tried the SIM card replacement. No dice. This is discouraging.
