Delete Wifi calling...help please

Can someone PLEASE tell me where to find the wifi calling service and or app so that i can get rid of this garbage annoying service and icon. Thank you.
No it's not in my settings. Yes I'm using a custom Rom but no one else using the Rom is having the issue so if someone could just tell me where to locate it in root explorer that'd be great. Thanks
Btw I deleted the WiFicall.Apk in system /app and it's still there so I know that's not it

Have you tried tried unchecking the box under Settings/More settings (under Wireless and network)?

IN the phone app, menu settings, should be at the bottom.
Under the dialing tab, hit the menu, choose call settings
at the bottom under Internet Call Settings
Try Titanium Back Up from Playstore, and go to Menu ---> Then Batch, find it and un-install it from there.
Lol it's not in either of those places. It's not in titanium backup either. Anyone know where it is in system?

Wifi calling is an awesome feature for those of us who travel internationally or have bad coverage in our homes.

Lol thanks for that but it doesn't help my situation. Well I solved my own situation by installing a new rom. So its all good now.

Does it count as calling from abroad? Or does it just use regular minutes?
Go to settings > More Settings and uncheck wifi calling
And wifi calling deducts from your limited minutes. It isnt free calling but its just in case you have a bad phone signal you can use someones wifi to make calls. Once you make that call you cant be out of the wifi range or your call will drop. I disabled mine.

My weather widget always displays a numeral 1 in a Sun icon next to the time. I have no idea what this is for ? Whatever it means I seem to find no way to make it vanish.
Any ideas ?
I believe the 1 could be for DST, but I could easily be wrong.
I seen that to in the home screen thread and was wondering what it was to

Ok how do you get this thing to update your location on its own? Every time I got to do it it manually in my locations. Is there something I'm missing?

4G toggle?

Hello i just try to find if there a some way to get a toggle to be switching between 4G and 3G? Thanks
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Nope, just like most phone don't have from 3g to 2g carries are trying to get rid of them, but hopefully they can make one
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2
Download the "Phone Info" app from the market. It allows you to choose between 3g and 4g.
I was wondering the same thing. If theres no toggle, does it automatically go to the highest/best available data stream?
Thanks i just download this app and mess al lil bit with that an forget wich is the original set up could u help me with move it back

I have found Pattern lock, GPS on off and data on off sometimes doesnt work, it fires from tasker because when you look at the exit/entry task its sitting there stuck and you have to hit stop
That will be tasker not properly set up. Why not try change the context to test if the secure settings functions work well? Tasker on my galaxy tab had the same problem. GPS works fine on my phone.

This happened to me a couple of weeks ago. Clear your data for the lockscreen app. That will fix it.
