Is it possible to make a call thru a wifi connection?( ie. no cell signal is available)

I've long wanted to switch to the Iphone but I sometimes need to go to some locations where AT&T nor verizon nor sprint have cell signals and the only way to make a call is by tethering to the wifi connection. This is possible with my tmobile phone but havent succeeded when trying to use an iphone. Is there a way to make this work?

You need a special phone which allows wifi calling.
The iPhone does not have this option.
You can get a micro-cell device, which plugs into your network internet and is basically a mini cell phone tower. It will work with regular cell phones (includiing iPhone).

    can i use internet in my ipad 3g ios 5.1 through my iphone sim also possible to make voice calls
    and i can't fine any access pint name changing option in ipad plz help me

    You might be able to use your iPhone sim. FaceTime calls are only possible over wifi or you can get something like the Skype For iPad app from the store if you want to make video calls over 3G - but you can't do 'normal' phone calls with the iPad.

  • Portege R600 - Is it possible to make a call with the SIM?

    Hi,
    I wonder if its possible to use the Wireless connection manager 5 and to make or receive a call?

    Hi,
    I see that nobody answered so i will try to explain what i meant -
    Is it possible to make audio call with the Wireless Manager by the GSM modem module?
    I succeed to send SMS and to connect to HSPA data services but i dont find any reason why i can not connect to the GSM and make a call.
    I have Portege R600 model PPR61E-01C00NG3
    I even succeed to use the GPS that probably installed in the GSM/HSPA modem (wireless manager 5).
    If anyone can explain how and if it possible to make a call please send your reply ... i wnat to use the laptop with BT instead of cell phone ....
    Thanks

  • I just upgraded my iPhone4s to iOS7 and now I am unable to make phone calls and send/receive text messages. Network signal indicator on the upper left side of the display shows hollow circles instead of full circles. Any idea how to fix the problem?

    I just upgraded my iPhone4s to iOS7 and now I am unable to make phone calls and send/receive text messaes. Network signal indicator on the upper left side of the display shows hollow circles instead of full circles (but with the network provider name). I checked with my colleagues in the office who use the same network and theirs work just fine on iOS7. Any idea how to fix the problem?

    I have also called my service provider and my service remains active in the network. I tried removing and reinserting my SIM but to no avail.

    Your call will be made over your cell signal, not wifi, unless its facetime.

  • TS3367 My FaceTime will make the call but will not connect and will sometimes say call failed. What do i do?

    My FaceTime will make the call but will not connect and will sometimes say call failed. What do i do?

    don't update to iOS7 just yet if you prefer 6.  Many are saying that's the cure, but there are lots of iOS7 users here who can't make Facetime work either.
    It would seem Apple has either a big problem on their hands, as this is now a week old, or they don't know how to fix it.  Either way, email Apple tech support your concerns

  • How is it possible that when I do have a Wifi connection, I cannot connect to Safari or Google Chrome or anything else internet-related?

    How is it possible that when I do have a Wifi connection, I cannot connect to Safari or Google Chrome or anything else internet-related? Sometimes it does all work, but after a while Wifi is still there and I am not able to go to any website whatsoever.

    Your network preferences file may be damaged, that would explain why you can configure the computer and get online but then when the computer wakes from sleep and needs to restore the setting it cannot.
    Open the Library folder of your computer (not the Library in your user directory) and then find the Preferences folder. Now the problem for me is that I've not used Leopard forever so I'm not sure exactly where the file you want is or what it is called. In Mountain Lion it is called:
    com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
    and it is inside a folder called SystemConfiguration. But I can't remember if this has changed along the way or not. The easy thing to do is to go back to the Network Preferences pane again and make the change I directed above. Then you can look in the Preferences folder and sort by date modified to find the network preferences file that was just now modified. Move it to the desktop, restart your computer, reconfigure the WiFi again and see what happens.

  • Is it possible to make a call to an Infotype from an ABAP program?

    Dear friends,
    I created a new infotype 9*** using transaction pm01 and it works fine. What i need to do is to make a call to this infotype from an abap program without going through transaction pa30. Is it possible to do that? Thank you in advance.
    Sincerely,
    hajar

    Hi,
    The HR_MASTERDATA_DIALOG might need some tweaking.. we use a custom Program on the lines of SAP's
    'perform rp_infotyp(sapfp50g)'  that is more user friendly.. let me know if u need more info..
    Good Luck,

  • TS3367 facetime doesn't work well after upgrading to ios8. I need to make a call several times to connect.

    Facetime doesn't work well after upgrading to ios8.
    When I make a facetime call, it doesn't sound some times on the other side.
    When it rings on the other side and is answered, it says (connecting), but it is still ringing on my side and never connected.
    After that, I disconnect and make a second call, it sometimes connects, but not everytime.
    I need to call several times to connect. It is really hard to connect through facetime after upgrading to ios8.
    I purchased three iPad so far because of this good feature (facetime).
    Please fix this issue as soon as possible.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    There are two easy fixes to this.
    One, you can set up Family Sharing, in which you can have two different iCloud Accounts, yet still share the same apps, music, media etc.
    Two, go to Settings and turn-off "Handoff". This can be found under the General page.
    Hope this helps!

  • How to make/receive call from a laptop connected to a smartphone through bluetooth?

    Dear Lenovo Forum,
    I have a smartphone (Samsung SCH-I759) which I would like to connect to ThinkPad Edge E440 running on Windows 7 Professional so I could make/receive phone call on the laptop.
    Having been browsing around, I saw several methods on doing it are fairly simple. Turn on the bluetooth connection on both devices, pair them, and set the service on the bluetooth connected device menu.
    When I follow these instructions, I did manage to pair the devices but the option of using the bluetooth connected smartphone as a phone does not appear. Instead, I have less available services on the menu. Below is the screen shot:

    For those who have been successfully pair and use their laptops as phone, would you care to share the how-to?
    Thank you,

    Although you could do it, why would you put this kind of logic into a presentation file like JSP? It depends on the API you want to use:

  • Is it possible to post pix from camera with WiFi connection, but no comp? (travelling light!)

    I just set up my wireless services on my camera. I will be travelling out of the country and will not have my laptop with me, but will have WiFi access. Is it still possible to post pictures wirelessly to online platfroms such as Facebook?

    struong,
    A computer is required as far as setting up Web Services and registering them to your camera.  However, once that is done, you can send image directly to those services as long as your camera is connected to an access point that has internet access.  To do this:
    Access the Wi-Fi menu on the camera.
    Select a registered Web Service, like Facebook or Twitter.
    Connect to an access point.
    Once connected, the image transfer screen will be displayed.

  • I have an iPad w/ 3G. It is possible to *just* use it with the WiFi connection?

    Can I turn off the 3G service and just have it connect via WiFi? I'm always around a wifi connection and it seems silly to have to pay for 3G service when I don't need it.
    I know on iPads with wifi there is the option to purchase 3G. With the 3G is there the ability to just have wifi?

    sure just select settings and enter your router password!
    enjoy
