Bad news, Nexus 4 fans: T-Mobile isn’t letting you get away with skimping on voice minutes after all. Android Police reports that, contrary to previous rumors, T-Mobile’s branded Nexus 4 will not support Wi-Fi calling. Apparently, one of T-Mobile’s online support documents said that the branded device actually would allow for Wi-Fi calling but a T-Mobile spokesperson told Android Police that this was “just a simple mistake in the online document.” BGR reviewed the Nexus 4 last week and called it one of the top Android devices released this fall despite having glaring issues such as a lack of LTE connectivity.
