[Q] New Internet Calling Feature on 4.4 - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Browsing through all the new kit kat goodies on my Nexus4 and i found the option for internet calling.
I'm assuming its similar to T-Mobile's wifi calling, so that bounty thread may go bye bye!
So I was wondering if anyone has used the Internet Calling "For all calls when data network is available" setting as a daily driver, and if so how has your experience been in terms of call quality and dropped calls?
Also found the google support thread that has basic directions: Here
TY! :good:
** oh and i did a search in a few forums before posting but only found tmo threads
Here's a screenshot

This was on 4.3 as well.

Interesting. Because of poor signal reception on my N5, I was considering using talkatone and GV. I'll try this. Never needed it on my N4--same service; same location.
Hmmm. Don't know if AT&T gophone offers internet calling.
EDIT: Talkatone doesn't seem to work with Hangouts.

[Q] Wifi calling quality suck (Stock GB)

I had 2.2 Froyo and the wifi calling quality was kind of weak, would be staticy and chop in and out, can't really make sense of what the other person says, he says the same with me
I decided to get CM7 7.0.1 and it did the same thing.
I then tried another router and it still had the same problem.
I now updated to 2.3.4 rooted and it still has the same problem.
Sometimes I even lose the call completely and it drops after a bunch of loss
Am I the only one? I couldn't find a post on the MT4G forums about this, nor do I know how many people actually use wifi calling.
I registered at T-mobile the 'Free Wifi calling' where it doesn't deduct minutes so I prefer to use wifi, just don't know how to fix this
tl;dr
2 different routers, 3 different OS's, all combinations, same issue
What are your internet speeds like?
WiFi calling works like a champ here. No issues at all unless I get to far from my router / repeaters. I have 100Mb internet though.... so speed isn't really an issue.
thanks for the reply
i'm probably 10ft from the router
i have a 25mbps/25mbps FiOS with 1-2ms jitter

NET10 nexus 4 T-Mobile APN settings

I don't know but in Miami I think AT&T sucks everyone I know drops so many calls, bad call quality, and average data. AT&T sucked for me on net10 and now they have a data cap 1.5gb. Now T-Mobile is much better for calls but data is weird just doesn't work sometimes it just freezes and I have to turn mobile data off and on.
Now for the past month have not been able to send MMS on nexus 4 called many times waited hours on hold nothing but check online as my answer. Anyway had to mix and match settings from their own site.
The highlighted is what I entered in for everything to work, try it out if you have the T-Mobile sim you can just switch everyday if you want. Didn't try the unlocked sim maybe it can do both I don't know.

I just created the same thread lol. I already tried this, didn't work for me
One troubleshooting step I would take is removing the other APN setting, but you can't... well I can't I'm not sure if there is a mod available that can do it

No data plan with Nexus 4 (ATT). Who else on same boat?

Anyone else not rocking out a data plan? Being a poor college student and being on campus where constant wifi is available, why need data haha?

Using that same logic you don't need voice or sms, or a sim or plan at all. Personally, I'd rather have it the other way around. Get a DATA ONLY plan for an iPad/hotspot, month to month, no contract, $30/3gb, and use Google Voice and GrooveIP for free voip calling. More features, and cheaper than whatever you pay now (guessing $45+maybe sms?). Or go tmo prepaid for 5gb/$30 if it's available in your area with 3g (edge blows). To each his own but it seems you've chosen the worst solution for the money.

Google no longer giving out voice numbers?

Hello all, I am currently deployed to south Korea and I brought my vzw note 3 with me. I have a prepaid 3g data plan here and I was trying to get VoIP up and running, I have been using talkatone but I would like to use the hangouts with dialer. But no matter where I go I cannot find a place to get a google voice number.
Did they stop giving these out? The website just throws me in circles over and over.
Any help would be appreciated!

Unidentified symbol

Hi - could someone please tell me what this 2 semi-circle symbol is (between the bluetooth and wireless symbols). Never seen it before and can't get rid of it!
Thanks

Are you rooted?

Hi. I am yes using as s8 port. Have always been rooted and never had this symbol. Can I remove it!?
I had that symbol on a custom ROM. It disappeared after a day, no idea what it was though, sorry!
Ok thanks. Hopefully it'll go then!!
That icon is lte connection its your mobile data at a much faster pace then 4g
Ok. If i turn off wifi the ymbol disappears but I have no data. So I have a problem with this rom maybe as only wifi works it would seem.
Ignore that last post. So this symbol is here whether I'm on wifi or 4g. It's huge. Don't like it! It's on as well as saying 4g.
Its the IMS logo. You can delete anything relating to IMS using titanium or any other program to remove it.
IMS?
Its more like your connected to a much higher quality reception
