Abstract

Systems, methods, and software for handling circuit switch fallback (CSFB) communications are provided herein. A method of operating a wireless communication device includes wirelessly registering with the first communication network to receive a wireless data service, and after the registration with the first communication network with an enabled CSFB configuration, wirelessly registering with a second wireless communication network to receive a wireless circuit switched voice service. The method also includes identifying a service problem with the second wireless communication network, and in response, de-registering from the first wireless communication network and disabling the CSFB configuration. The method includes, after disabling the CSFB configuration, re-registering with the first wireless communication network to receive the wireless data service. After the re-registration with the first wireless communication network, the method includes exchanging voice communications over the wireless data service of the first wireless communication network without using the CSFB services.
