Re: After latest update, GS9 keeps defaulting to Cellular Preferred over Wi-Fi calling
Guys, This still isn't fixed for me. I'm checking back every few days but it's not JUST related to the Pie update. We're seeing it across multiple phones, though it does seem to be related to Samsungs. The only fix we've found is when we're at home, turn on AIrplane mode, then MANUALLY enable Wifi and blutooth with airplane mode still on. This temporarily "fixes" the issue and it doesn't try to switch back to cellular. Of course, you need to remember to turn OFF airplane mode when you leave the house, which is also a PITA, but at least you won't miss calls/texts at home. TMOBILE: FIX THIS PLEASE. It's been problematic for the last TWO firmware updates. If you can't get this working I'll be switching carriers.3Visto1like0ComentariosRe: After latest update, GS9 keeps defaulting to Cellular Preferred over Wi-Fi calling

It shouldn't need to switch back and forth as in our bedroom where we spend most of our time is where my network setup is located including my Wi-Fi router and I get very poor cell phone service where I live so there should be no question on whether or not it needs to switch or stay on WiFi so I don't know why it's switching. Unfortunately, you're likely going to miss calls and SMS while at home. The only solution I've found to this is to set your phone to Airplane mode when home, and turn on WiFi and Bluetooth manually. Of course, this is a PITA whenever I go out and forget to turn airplane mode off… Just got another update, and still not patched. T-Mobile, fix this. DISABLE the "automatic adjustment". Let usset what works for our situation.6Visto3likes0ComentariosRe: After latest update, GS9 keeps defaulting to Cellular Preferred over Wi-Fi calling
This is getting ridiculous. My wife's phone (S9+)has now started doing this since her most recent update as well. A new update on my phone in the meantime hasn't fixed it. We have to keep our phones in airplane mode to keep them from switching back to "cellular preferred", which won't work because of the weak signal here. Since "Cellular Preferred" sees a barely-there one-bar cell signal, it will not even try the WiFi calling. We start missing calls and texts. Since BOTH of our phones are now doing it, this is something T-Mobile's update has doing to our phones since the recent updates. T-Mobile, please fix this ASAP.6Visto1like0ComentariosRe: After latest update, GS9 keeps defaulting to Cellular Preferred over Wi-Fi calling
Thanks, but this isn't helpful. Those options have been turned off since I got the phone, because I have known of my signal issues. I primarily use wifi. This has only become an issue since the phone got the most recent update. No settings were changed, and I did review them as your post suggested to make sure. There areno "aggressive" mode options under any of the wifi menus or settings regardless of what is toggled on or off. There is no context menu under mobile data, even when turned on.5Visto2likes0ComentariosRe: After latest update, GS9 keeps defaulting to Cellular Preferred over Wi-Fi calling
This just started happening to me as well, Note 10+ 5g. All current updates, and every 20 minutes or so T-Mobile "helpfully" tells me that they've adjusted my wifi call preferences to prefer cellular. My issues are similar to the original posters…I barely have a cell signal, but enough that the phone keeps trying and I will miss calls or texts because it never tries WiFi until I notice and switch it back manually. One of the main reasons I've been a T-Mobile customer for so long is the Calling over WiFi.6Visto3likes0Comentarios
