Galaxy S6 Edge Plus Wifi Calling

[Anonymous]

Hi there

Can anyone tell me when and if Wifi Calling will be enabled on the S6 Edge Plus?

I was offered it on my account and had it suggested to me via a message from O2 so I enabled it thinking it was compatible, this disabled TuGo which suited me fine as that was pretty unreliable.

I looked in the phone settings to see if I could enable it but couldn't find the option, I only then discovered that all O2 online instructions for Wifi calling were for S7 etc so it looked like it wasn't going to work.  I contacted support via the online chat and the person/robot at the other end insisted my phone was in fact supported and it should be working.

It doesn't seem to work so guess that was wrong.

So, any clues?

Cheers

Mike

S6 is not currently supported but we are told to expect more phones to be added soon.
Even then, you will need a phone running o2 customised firmware.

Thanks for the info, much as I had assumed.

My Phone was bought from O2 and is un-modified so fingers are crossed that it will soon be enabled.

I suppose I will have to disable it on my account and re-install TuGo then <Sigh>

You can also retrieve more information from this webpage.

Well, still no support for wifi calling on the S6 Edge Plus and tu-go is apparently ending.  Contracts up too so looks like that's me away from O2 then.

Nope, it seems like "we're adding more phones soon" is also a load of bull......

Agreed...Along with 'we are releasing an app that will replace Tu which includes texting'...

If any of this is vaguely true, then lets just say 'Too little.. too late!'

Has no-one anything positive to say about O2 lately, I wonder? 😛

Yes I get good 4G coverage where I live and owning my own phone, my sim only contract is good value for money. However...this is finished in January...soooooo...

There is not much I can say about O2 at the moment, certainly nothing good.
