After latest update, GS9 keeps defaulting to Cellular Preferred over Wi-Fi calling
I have very poor (but existent) cellular coverage in my home. I had no problems with setting Wi-Fi preferred for all of my calls/texting prior to the latest (large) update. Now, I can select Wi...
¡Hola, @drinktigermilk!
Unfortunately, this is the first post that I've seen around the Support Community regarding WiFi calling taking a back seat to cellular after updating to Pie. We're still working to get answers on why this is happening and what we can do to fix it. In the meantime, we're using this thread: Official Android 9.0 Pie Discussion Thread to track user-reported issues related to Pie. When we have more info, we'll be sure to post it over on the linked thread.
Team T-Mobile, You need to pay attention to this thread.
I think maybe AT&T is messing around with your customers. It may be unintentional, I don't know. When I'm driving, I switch to the AT&T network when your signal goes low, and I get virtually no data from them. If I hard code my network to stay on you, then I have virtually no drops on my commute.
Now Now catch this, if I do the same thing when I'm at home, my cellular calling preference does not change from Wi-Fi preferred repeatedly. II I leave my cellular network selection on automatic, then AT&T network is selected, And my cellular calling preference continues to switch to cellular preferred.
Can others confirm this, go in and change your network selection to be T-Mobile only and see if your Wi-Fi calling preference stops switching to cellular preferred.. This may be a bug in android's cellular network selection, or it could be another provider messing with T-Mobile settings.
I'm finding that after updates I no longer can drive my commute without interrupted streaming. Now I'm also dealing with my cellular preference switching off of Wi-Fi and on to cellular. I have the Samsung S21.
