wifi calling on factory unlocked phones.

[5280nitro]

Hey Cricket. I have seen some chater that AT&T may activate wifi calling at the end of this year on unlocked Samsung phones (according to some posts on Samsung forum). With You being a wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T will Cricket follow suit? I just purchased a factory unlocked s10+ & since my house is in a service hole would love to be able to make a call without having to climb up on the roof.

@5280nitro At the moment we do not have information when Wi-Fi calling will be available for a Samsung S10+ but when it is available we make sure to update it on our website.

They make repeaters that will solve your problem, cost a bit, but cheaper and safer than falling off the roof. Here is one, but there are many others,

cricket does not support wifi calling on the + models of any samsung phone or Note model because they do not sale them so the answer to your question is definately NO I wish they did because id rather have a samsung phone rather than an iPhone because I like the Note models and unfortunately im in the same situation as you no cellphone service and having to rely on wifi calling which at this moment will not enable because its jacked up on their end as soon as I can get thousands of dollars I will purchase me a high powered  antenna that can pick up a signal we are living in 2019 and have yet to be able to get a signal seems strange

I have a question...well two questions. Why do you type in bold? Also, why dont you use periods or commas in your responses? I cant understand anything in a run-on sentence.

</b>1st answer Because I like Bold text my text on my iPhone is all in Bold too
2nd answer because I like typing without punctuation and never learned proper punctuation in school for one I hated school and didn’t want to be there so I never listened</b>

Is cricket working on getting wifi calling operational on unlocked android devices? If straight talk can do it, surely cricket can do it. I'd be willing to pay a monthly fee for this option. It'd be cheaper than buying an expensive repeater or getting home service. What's the difference between a Cricket Samsung Galaxy S9 and a factory unlocked Samsung Galaxy S9?
