@everyone, on the subject of call forwarding

As already posted by others, call forwarding cannot be activated via the phone settings (if WiFi calling is already activated). Strangely enough, activating call forwarding works with the Android app “redirect call”.

Hello everyone, unfortunately the forwarding doesn’t work for me even with the redirect call app. Error message: Call forwarding connection problem or invalid MMI code. This app works on my other cell phone without Volte and WifiCalling. So unfortunately no solution either.

Hi,

For whom is it also the case that although the WiFi calling icon is dead in the notification area, no outgoing or incoming calls are possible?

Then Wifi Calling must be briefly deactivated and reactivated in the settings.

This occurs very differently.

Use a Cisco WLAN with WLC and two access points.

Pfsense as a firewall with no external port restrictions.

greeting

My question: who is in the driver seat for this issue? Samsung, Google or Swisscom?

GuidoT: Is there now an approach from technology to solve the problem of call forwarding? It can’t be the case that it simply no longer works for some people.

Thank you very much for the feedback.

I found something about prioritization on Android. To do this, download the app Activity Launcher from the Playstore. Start this and click on “Activity history” at the top right and then select "All activities. Now you should find an entry called “Wi-Fi call” almost at the bottom. Click on it and from the options that now appear, select the one with the I haven’t been able to test the whole thing yet, but I’ll try it out as soon as possible and let you know the results.
P.S.: If you hold down the option a little longer, you can also create a shortcut to the home screen.:smileywink:

To everyone: The prerequisite for everything to work is that you have the latest firmware for the device in question.

Google Carrier App for Open Market devices or whatever the thing is called. Unfortunately it is incomplete and therefore does not work. Google knows.

You see, we do everything. It’s also my turn to ensure that we can activate even more tariffs. But there is a legal problem that we first have to resolve by adapting the IT. Unfortunately I can’t give any more information.

Hello everyone,

I’m currently watching the Google Keynote. Will the Pixel be sold by Swisscom in the same way an iPhone is sold?
Will Google Pixel get Wifi and VoLTE calling support?

Kind regards

As a CMN subscription customer, we are still waiting for Advanced calling. According to reports, the CMN subscriptions are still managed on an “old” platform that does not support these protocols. Where is the technical (and not the contractual) problem, e.g. moving my subscription to the new platform?

CMN customers will be continuously converted to the new Natel go platform, provided the contracts have been signed. According to Mr. Weisskopf from Swisscom, advanced calling will then be implemented for business customers in Q4.

I received information from SC that it will take until the end of 2017 until the last business customer is converted and can therefore benefit from Advanced Calling.

You are my hero! This is exactly the tip I was looking for, it also works perfectly with my HTC 10! Finally…

@All

It would be desirable if someone could advise whether/how Activity Launcher can also control this function on Samsung devices (Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 EDGE), as these devices can also be purchased on the open market. Currently, Swisscom (unlike foreign providers) does not offer the option of setting priority to WiFi calling (the devices switch to mobile communications even when reception is minimal).

My current knowledge is that since Android 5.x (I think) system settings can no longer be changed by apps like Tasker…

For example, activate flight mode as soon as it is 11 p.m., or activate Bluetooth based on the location, etc.

GuidoT: Is there now an approach from technology to solve the problem of call forwarding? Today there was a new update from Samsung on my Galaxy S7. Unfortunately, call forwarding still doesn’t work. It can’t be that it just doesn’t work anymore. You always have to carry two cell phones with you.

Thank you very much for the feedback.
