    Wi-fi calling unlocked T-Mo Samsung S8

    Interesting. I am thinking of trying out Consumer Cellular's T-Mobile SIM to see if WiFi calling would then work. It isn't currently working for me on my unlocked phone using Consumer Cellular's AT&T-based SIM. Have you noticed any other different features being enabled/working by using either...

    Unlocked vs Carrier? Pros/Cons?

    If you're still there...I'm curious to know whether you're using Consumer Cellular's AT&T-coverage SIM or their T-Mobile SIM. I'm wondering if it makes a difference. Currently using Consumer Cellular's AT&T SIM with an unlocked phone and don't have WiFi calling or HD Voice. Thanks!

    Longtime Note user bored with 10+. Thinking of making the switch to iPhone

    I'm curious about your consistent, all-day use of the S-Pen. How are you using it? I upgraded to a newer Note from a previous Note thinking I would get more use out of the S-Pen now that it has more functions...only to find that I still don't use it much! :D Other Note owners have shared the...

    Input mode does not show up under messages>settings>text

    Thanks for responding! Interestingly, no problems with sending in Google Messages or Textra, so it's an issue with the Samsung app (and possibly compatibility with my carrier?) Persists regardless of using Samsung Keyboard or GBoard. Just irksome that I can't figure this out!!

    Input mode does not show up under messages>settings>text

    The applicable option under the main settings menu is "More settings," which leads to the Text messages option captured above, Multimedia messages, and a few other settings, none of which lead to changing the input mode. :(

    Input mode does not show up under messages>settings>text

    Also, when I click on "Manage SIM card messages," it says "No messages." No options lead to changing input mode! This is an issue others on this forum report having, but so far, I can't find a solution.

    The option to change the input mode is not there. I have a Note 8. Same issue.

    Input mode does not show up under messages>settings>text

    I should add emoji also sends if sending to 1 recipient with a picture attached (which converts to MMS). But if just 1 recipient, emoji will not send. Yes, data is on. Thanks for any input!

    Has anyone found a solution to this issue? I'm on a different carrier and also do NOT have the option in Messages to change the input mode to automatic.
