I found out some strange bug:
When my TYTN is connected to the network (UMTS) and bluetooth is switched on too I can not make telephone calls. TYTN starts dialing but disconnects after 5 sec. (No errormessage, but plays a sound 3 times (something like: ding…ding…ding).
Incoming calls do not get trough too (Only busy tone).
When I switch off Bluetooth or network connection everything works fine again.
I searched this forum up and down, but found no answer.
Am I the only one or did somebody notice this bug too?
i found that i cannot use my phone at all if i restart my phone with BT and wifi on somtimes, removing the bt and wifi seems to fix it for me. strange eh?
i often get phone failed.
Its annoying. I am always afraid that I forget to switch off the Networkconnection after I have checked emails or was surfing in the internet.
Its the basic purpos of a phone to be reachable.
Am I the only one with this problem? Is something wrong with my phone?
Sorry to poll this.
But nobody else has noticed this?
Hey folks,
Am I the only one with this bug ?
Really need help for this problem
I forgot to post that my problem has gone.
It definitly was a network problem caused by my networkprovider "One Austria" (now Orange).
After a long call with the technical support they changed some of their serversettings
and wow this problem is gone.
Never happened again (since 6 month)
Hope this helps someone
I am searching for an app, that gives me a sound-alert, when I do not have an GPRS-connection anymore, because there is no more signal.
Or, when there is no more GSM-signal, for example in a building, and I cant receive anymore phone calls because of this.
Thank You
Nobody any idea?
PhoneAlarm should be able to give you a notification, when your signal is low, or unavailable.
I will look at it, thank You very much.
Any other ideas?
if your phone supports it, a setting is available in alerts and sounds.
you can set a alert and sound when the connection has been broken or lost.
Wow, which phone supports that?
Unfortunatly my HTC Touch does not....
I'm using Nav n Go 8, an when I loose my GPS connection it tells me, so I'm not too sure what navigation software your using, but that alone should work.
Sorry, but its not GPS, but GPRS I was asking for.......
Hello!
I know their is an issue/bug with Wifi connection,but i couldn't find some solution.
Do you guys know?
Otherwise the phone it self is amazing,i realy like the software i think that it's the future for mobiles as long as everthing is working properly
Thx!
Hi guys
Just got a and s8 and its the first phone I've been able to use Wi-Fi calling on. I'm on vodafone uk and the WiFi calling works okay. I've just got a question though.
At home I generally get an okay mobile signal but the WiFi calling symbol remains even though i have 2 bars. Is this normal? I though WiFi calling would only kick in when your signal was really weak?
Many thanks
Hi just a question do you have any problems with wifi calling? Just that I'm on vodafone and when using wifi calling no-one can hear me when I talk.
I tried it today mimo2008 in airplane mode and WiFi on and it worked okay for me. Are you running a vodafone firmware or a standard uk one?
Had the same issue in that quite a few times the person at the other end could not hear me. Also the WiFi calling symbol would remain even after I was out of range of WiFi!
Used to work fairly well on my old S7. Given up using it for now and turned the Sure Signal back on.
I'm not using a Vodafone firmware BTW.
It's strange because it only works in airplane mode not in normal. I'm running vodafone software unfortunately.
Thx for letting me know.
Are you guys connected to 5ghz WiFi when you are having problems? I had the chance to try WiFi calling at work today where I don't get signal. It worked really well and disconnected as it should as soon as I walked outside and had a couple of bars mobile signal. I tried this a few times. The only difference to at home is that we only have 2.4ghz WiFi at work.
Came home and forgot the 5ghz network and joined the 2.4ghz one. Magically it just works now. As soon as I'm down to one bar it comes on. Then goes off when I'm stood by the window and have 2+ bars.
Edit: Seems that didn't fix it after all. I'm sat here with 2-3 bars and WiFi calling remains on. Oh well hopefully in a future firmware update it might get fixed.
Just to update I'm now having the problem of the other person not being able to hear me. I've had to disable WiFi calling now as it's too buggy. I've left a message on the Vodafone forum where others are having the same problem. Apparently they are looking in to it.
Yeah I've been told it's not compatible with nougat which i think is a load off bull.
If it was the case then it would effect other carrier's

Have they said if they are working on a fix mimo?
Hi @rob77
This is the email I got from vodafone.
Hello,
We?ve just investigated the fault you are experiencing with wifi calling. Your phone is currently running the latest version of Android (Nougat) which regrettably is currently incompatible with wifi calling, as soon as an update is released to Android wifi calling will resume normal service on your phone.
Regards,
No time scale I'm afraid.
Thanks mimo2008
Oh well I guess I'd better invest in a sure signal for work then.
Your welcome Rob hopefully they will get it fixed soon.
Bought a sure signal yesterday and have set it up at work. I've got to say it performs really well
@ Rob77 - Funny, cos it worked perfectly fine on my S7 running Nougat?
@Richy101 I've read quite a bit on the Vodafone forums and it does seem mainly s8 owners complaining of this problem. I've submitted a ticket and would like to see it fixed but the sure signal is actually better for me at this moment in time. I only need WiFi calling at work and the sure signal supports texts as well. At home I get usually get 2 bars 4g and falls back 3g if the signal gets too low.

Just received a large "bug fix" software update which seems to include updated carrier software (VOD_0058 to VOD_0061) - does anyone know whether this WiFi calling bug was fixed?
Still broken for me with the latest update; no sound transmitted from my phone to the remote side

How frustrating - I've not had that problem yet since the update
EDIT: I notice Vodafone appear to have updated their site to say S8 is officially supported so they think any issues are now fixed
I've tried several ROMs now and really can't seem to find one that works with wifi calling, even though most 8.1 Roms do work with it, does anyone know a ROM that works with it?
Anyone has experience on how to get it working? I have no coverage here so I pretty much depend on it.
