Help Wifi calling on ICS

I called up t-mobile cause I was having low to no signal in my house and they asked me if I had Wifi and I said yes. So the guy told me that Wifi calling not only allows me to text over Wifi but also send and receive sms/mms messages. So far the SMS messages is true but the mms messages will not download over Wifi, he did tell me that the phone has to be connected with the Wifi calling and I am but it still won't work and it's really getting me mad that it won't work right. Even if you go to the setting and look at the info that they give you about Wifi calling it says send and receive SMS and multimedia over Wifi.
 
Hi jj. I did some searching and the mms/wifi problem seems to be a common problem with different phones across different carriers. Some say its just Samsung, others say their HTC does it too. Some say its T-Mobile but others say they have the problem on Verizon and AT&T. Some say make sure you still have mobile data turned on even if on wifi and it will work. Others say no it still doesn't work. I'm not sure anyone has an answer.

I found out how to get it to work but the other problem I ran Into was that when in a call (receiving or making it) people can't hear me. Any fixes to that?

How did you get it to work? It might help some other people.

As to the call thing, does it happen all the time or just sometime? Lots of people have reported it happening from several times a day to several times a week. I haven't seen a fix for it.

I've not had a problem where people can't hear me that I can think of, but I've had other issues with WiFi calling. Someone will tell me that my phone (which is on and sitting right next to me) will go straight to voice mail, sometimes it will ring once or twice but won't let me answer it, it's even dropped calls on me. Turn WiFi off, not a problem.
