Wi-Fi Calling on 810?

[suharsh]

I had to return the 925 as the screen had cracked (my mistake the case wasn't good enough to protect). So I am back to my 810. I am going to Canada for a few days and was wondering if 810 supported Wi-Fi Calling?

Another question - any other options as Canada seems to be considered as international roaming?

Straight answer - Wi-Fi calling is not supported on the 810 and it can't be enabled on the latest Amber firmware

T-Mobile supports international data roaming for free so you can use Skype for making calls, also international texting to the US is still free

pankaj981 - thanks.
Is what you said true even if I have 8.1dp?

 

[pankaj981]

Yes, Wi-Fi calling is not supported even on 8.1

It "could" have W-Fi calling but needs a software update similar to the ones T Mobile sent OTA to owners of the 521 and 925. T Mobile chose not to enable it, it does have the hardware but not the software.

No Wi Fi calling on 810. Data is free but quite slow so don't expect Skype calling to work unless you have an excellent Wi-Fi connection. SMS is free as pankaj981 noted. Cheers.
