Root [MetroPCS] How do I add 911 address with no service?

Hello all,

I don't presently have phone service on my Metro PCS MsLG500 and want to make wifi calls. But the phone won't do it, it says, because I haven't provided a 911 address. How do I do that without service.

(Btw, Metro is trying to shake me down for more money even though I paid $80.00 on the 3rd of October.):(

Any help here would be much appreciated.

Thanks

I'm pretty sure you need your phone to be connected for the regular WiFi call thing...

You can always download a different app , but you will get a different #

Hello. I'm having what seems to be the same issue. I can only make calls via WiFi because where I am has no service. But I cannot make WiFi calls because I'm missing an E911 address. However, the only way I'll be able to put my E911 address into MyMetro... is by disconnecting from the WiFi and connecting to MyMetro. Which I cannot do because I have no service other than the WiFi services available near me
