I did. Doesn't reset

it worked the first couple days last week. But still broken.

I ordered a new Sim. That's my last option.

I am truthfully waiting for the s6 to come out. Its easier leverage with three warranty returns to ask for a brand new phone.

When the s3 had gps connection issues, people were able to fix it by opening the battery cover and tightening a few screws. I guess it can't hurt to try

What's the benefit of WiFi calling apps? Each seems to have some limitation which WiFi calling directly from my phone does not. If it matters I expect to use it in Israel.

Like calling via WiFi when you don't have Sim/service

His question was, his carrier has wifi calling directly anyway. Is there any benefit to using a different app like Hangouts?

Does it have WiFi calling worldwide? If so lucky him, no one is forcing him to install Hangouts, its a free world

My HTC one has WiFi. I don't think it's limited to any location.

I litt have the worst luck. I just got my 4th warrenty phone (s5) and i just got a brand new sim (sunday) from verizon. I insert my sim and turn phone on, i dont sign into anything. I activated the phone and go directly into google maps.... and still broken. I keep getting Signal lost.... this is crazy my 4th phone with these issues...

I am so fed up with this, i have no idea what to ask for anymore. They wont give me any more 25$ cr

and they dont want to send me a brand new phone or even a diff phone completely.
