[App] Download T-Mobile Wifi-Calling App from G2 here !

[jroid]

Everyone's been asking about it. Everyone wants it. Here it is, the wifi calling app from the G2! I've installed and runs perfectly fine on my vibrant running JP3 froyo 2.2. My home network is weak so i can't really test yet. Kudos to @Official_Drizzy for the .apk
Install with your preferred method of install, I used astro just fine, or push it to /system/app via adb. Whatever floats your boat.

enjoy

I wonder if this would work on Bionix 1.8? I don't mind testing, but if anyone knows the answer...

just install it, it won't hurt to try. If it doesn't, then remove it.

Doesn't look like it works at the moment... the app gets to the point where it says 'Enabling...' and doesn't do anything after that. It never goes unresponsive though. I'll keep messing around and see what happens.

It is being discussed in another thread... But it won't work yet with the vibrant. Something to do with the kernal.

I thought it had to do with localhost?

Perhaps it only works on 2.2

Would love to get this thing working. Once it is, would it be possible to call using 3G instead of WIFI? Haven't they done it on Skype.

I wouldn't also mind having Skype work for my Vibrant either

The Wifi calling app is merely using your Wifi as a poor-man's femtocell to allow you to have clear voice calls if your in areas where decent voice signal isn't available and Wifi is. Granted, this would also have significant benefits when roaming or traveling where Wifi is available too...

But....

This uses the minutes allocated in your service plan.... So being hacked to run on 3g would be pointless...

doesn't seem mines is having an connectivity issues YET. It says i'm connected to my home network but that i can't use wifi-calling because the network is too weak.

I would just like to be able to use the phone in my apartment where I don't have service. To have to put it on a Froyo that doesn't work completely is out of the question though. Hopefully, someone smarter than me can get it working on JI6.

Just loaded Froyo, it doesn't seem to be working. Just says enabling....

EDIT: Maybe it does work. When I turn it on my signal goes from 1 bar to 5 bars.

Figures, it works perfect downstairs with wifi off and with wifi on. Its hard to tell if wifi calling is working or not because tmobile did fix my signal a little last week.

It wouldn't matter what your cell signal is. Its not using the cell signal its using the wifi.

Doesn't work on Frank Wiz.

Well it might, because thats how it worked on the Blackberry. It switched to UMA and had full bars.

Honestly when I turn it off it goes to 0 - 1 bars the second i turn it on I get 5 bars.
