Wi-Fi calling on gt-i500 - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I'm planning to switch to tmobile from Att and I'm just wondering if the wifi calling works on the gt-i9500. Anyone with the phone on tmobile network mind confirming me on this?
Thanks!

Anyone?

Wifi calling is only in tmo firmwares. So as long as you flash a tmo rom it should work
And do you mean i9505 or i9500? I9505 is identical to the M919. I9500 is completely different tho. Which you'd brick flashing a tmo rom

I'm sorry, mine is i9500. So I'm guessing no wifi calling then? :/

Nope. 9500 use an Exynos 5 Octa chipset. 9505 and tmos uses an Snapdragon 600.

Enable LTE in Galaxy I9500 , How?
someone know?
You just can't. Why not try to run Windows Server 2012 on it while you are at it... The phone just does not have an LTE enabled radio. Good luck enabling anything short of soldering one (well there is more than that involved but whatever, you should be getting the idea)

Yes the Exynos 5 CAN support LTE but the i9500 does not.
Samsung were most likely referring to the "SHV-E300K/L/S", the South Korean version which is running the Exynos but also includes an LTE chip.

but the chip in i9500 is the same as Korean variant its just over clocked... there would definitely be some method to do it!
just wait for XDA GENIUS developers....
cause on xda anything can happen
one car can have audio system, other dont. why car without audio can't play music?

is anyone using an i9505 in Canada?

Anyone using an i9505 in Canada, can you confirm whether LTE works or not? Thanks.
If LTE works, I would like to get an i9505. If not, then probably an i9500.

Bell networks in canada supports LTE 2600 and i9505 has the same band it should work

Yeah, it would seem like Rogers have 2600 as well but I just wanted to be 100% sure that it would work. As for my purchase choice, I would prefer to get LTE but if LTE is simply not an option then I would go for the octa-core.

[Q] Considering to swap an I9500 for a T-mo S4

Hi,
I like my I9500 but I'm really interested in the T-mobile's LTE speeds in my area. So far I can get an HSPA+ (SF market) as most of the market is re-farmed with the 1900Mhz band but I'm not traveling as much as I've used to and I was thinking to switch to the T-mo's S4 for the LTE.
My question is related to ROM upgrades. Does anyone know (or can confirm) that the I9505 builds works on the T-mo's phones as well? In other words, will the SGH-M919 take the I9505 builds? or are there less, more limited builds that needs to be specific to the SGH-M919 phones?
In the past I had my SGS3 from T-mo and I remember that the international versions got all the goodies (such as multi-screen / split-screen) but T-mo never got those upgrades. I don't want to be in the same situation again...
Thanks in advance for your feedbacks
Gil.
Yes they do work, I'm on a I337 using a 9505 Rom

[Q] Does note 3 N9005 work on Tmobile 4G?

hi,guys!
I want to buy a samsung galaxy note3 N9005,and i'm using Tmobile now.
But i don't know does it compatible to Tmobile 4g/HSPA+ newtork?
i saw in negri electronics,they said it doesn't work in tmobile's 4G.
So can you guys tell me about that? does note 3 N9005 work in Tmobile's 4G?
Thanks a lot.
I thought I read somewhere that the processor is comparable with all current LTE bands and all you had to do was flash a T-Mobile modem.
Don't quote me on that though because I don't want to be responsible for a broken note 3. Try using search on xda or ask in the T-Mobile note 3 forum. I know the info is around here somewhere.

It will work except for LTE, and you might be able to enable the LTE by flashing a T-Mo modem. I have the N900T with an N9005 ROM and it works great, still with T-Mo modem. N9005 ROM doesn't have the LTE indicator but if it says 4G that means LTE.

Galaxy S4 and 4G

Can someone please answer me this question.
I'd like to upgrade my Galaxy S3 to an S4 but I need to be sure of one thing.
Do all S4s come with 4G capability and it's just a matter of whether the operator supports it?
Or are there models which are 3G only?
If yes then how to tell?
I9500 is 3g, i9505 is 4G. You can check the box and see the model number.
