Hi guys.
Let me elaborate my question.
1. I am totally aware that VoLTE on Android at the moment generally requires the handset to be from the carrier, or from the same region as the carrier for it to have the correct VoLTE (and VoWIFI) settings.
2. I am also totally aware that since Android 6.0, there actually has been a provision to allow carriers to send carrier settings to the user. I also know that this isnt being widely used.
After my ownership of my Pixel XL, I moved to a HTC U11, which I have flashed a custom ROM. This custom ROM managed to have the carrier settings for VoLTE for my carrier baked in.
I am keen on getting a Pixel XL2, so Im keen to see what the Pixel community is doing to enable VoLTE on networks that arent stocking the Pixel or Pixel XL.
Here in Australia, both generations of the pixel seem like they will be Telstra exclusives. and I am not inclined to go on their network!
Thanks for any assistance!
I use it with T-Mobile, only Verizon stocks it in the States. Volte works fine for me. Nothing i needed to do other than to setup the phone with the Sim card in the device.
Same here, got it with my T-Mobile SIM card.
This worked for me. Go to dialer and dial
*#*#4636#*#*
Phone Information
Turn on VoLTE
Turn on Video Calling
Turn on Wi-Fi Calling
Exit
I'm on Oreo 8.1 on my P2 XL, looks like it's already enabled. I'm on AT&T.

Change carrier. AFAIK you'll never get enhanced LTE services using a non-AT&T branded phone on their network. Once I switched my pixel xl to T-Mobile things like that and wifi calling worked fine.
My condolences to your Pixel XL 2. I was in a Verizon store the other day just to check out PXL2. The blue tint when turning the phone horizontally - horrific. Also, barely faster than my Pixel XL, even if you care for that kind of thing (speed.)

Same problem in Argentina, Pixel is NOT SOLD here so.... out of luck, but I tried this (already knew of the menu) and all my options are blacked out -can't enable any of them-, advice?????
Thanks.
If you can get root on your phone, flash magisk and there is a module in there to install that can enable VoLte and Wifi calling, worked for me on AT&T.

the module only changes the settings to allow for toggling but does not provide needed ims libraries.

I had to toggle VoLTE off then on, restart. It's working for me now
"Turn on Video Calling"
Option is disabled, couldn't turn on
Depends if you're on Verizon or straight talk or what. I'm on straight talk and they don't offer VOLTE even though they use Verizon towers.
Using *#*#4636#*#*, the VoLTE provisioned option is greyd out. Anyone has a solution for this?

It means your operator is not offering VoLTE, or, as in my case, Pixel XL is not approved by the operator. I have VoLTE on my SIM enabled and working with operator approved devices but network rejects Pixel as not compatible one.

Operator offers VoLTE and it doesn't filter IMEI like in some cases. Other not approved devices (e.g xiaomi, oneplus) managed to enable volte via shortcuts. I am asking for a similar workaround. --thanks
Of you're on Straight Talk you're SOL. They don't offer it even if you're using a Verizon SIM
If you had geryed provisioning options you need to use magisks voenabler. a did it right now on december pie update. Now I have all enabled. Just waiting for operator to enable volte for my number. I wonder it will active.
Hi, my carrier does support VoLTE but the Pixel is not on its whitelist.
When dialing *#*#4636#*#* and going into phone info, the switches for "VoLTE Provisioned" is off and greyed out, but at the top of this screen I see "Voice Network Type: LTE". Does that mean I am getting VoLTE? I cannot see any other sign or symbol when calling. (I know some devices have a VoLTE symbol either in the status bar or during a call)
Hi guys... I am hoping someone can assist. I am struggling to access the volte option on my S20 Ultra.
Going via apps > connections > mobile networks no option is there.
But when using the Samsung Band Selection app and selecting the more network settings option, i am taken to screen with that option.
When i try accessing service mode via *#2683662# it just brings up a blank screen.
Is there anything I can check or do ?
unlocking voi lte
In some cases only the phone company can unlock it. In Australia, if your phone is not locked to one telco, the option does not appear. Telstra automatically enable it, but Optus had to be asked to unlock it from their end. Check with your teco.
Hi,
I bought my S20 Ultra from the online Samsung Store (Europe).
I don't have the VoLTE option in the menus. But I do have the VoLTE connectivity while on calls, no action was needed.
I know that for my provider, VoLTE has to be enabled from the provider's side in case of first activation (new contract with new SIM or passing from non-VoLTE device to a compatible device).
So try making a call if you're still on 4G, then you're OK.
If it doesn't work, try contacting your provider's customer service, maybe it needs an action from their side.
With the recent bombing in nashville. my phone is useless unless connceted to wifi at home and even then i can't make wifi calls. Im on the cricket wireless network so i go down to the store, only for the wireless tech to not be able to enable it in settings. Is there any special code to unlock this setting. I bought the phone carrier free brand new.
Hi
Hope you are doing ok there
Well were u able to use wifi calling before the current situation you are in? The wifi calling needs to be supported by your mobile phone carrier so check with them. If yes then there could be a problem with your phone or simcard if no then you are stuck with qhat you have or you change your carrier to anotherone qhich supports wifi calling
Best regards
Anyone on Vodafone UK? Do you get the option of WiFi calling? I get VoLTE, but not WiFi calling unless I use logkit method.
EE gets it no problem, also the option to choose WiFi or cellular preferred.
I can enable it using logkit and it works, but can't choose WiFi preferred.
Somewhat solved my own issue here.
Initially I'd tried a couple of those apps that would give you the option of WiFi preferred or not, but they kept crashing. So.
Turned off those options in logkit, restarted phone. Disabled my secondary EE SIM.
Found an app called VoWIFI which allows you to turn on WiFi calling, but also allows you to say cellular or WiFi preferred. Could have stopped there, but then saw a comment saying to just create a shortcut.
Downloaded 'shortcut maker'. Created a shortcut under settings, settings activities, searched WiFi and selected WiFi calling. Create a shortcut from this and voila! Shortcut only works if only one SIM active.
I had checked the Settings and everywhere. I can't seem to find the Wifi Calling option of the TCL 10 Pro with Cricket(AT&T). I am wondering if there's an app or software (or any other ways) that can be installed to have the Wifi Calling feature for this phone.

Settings — SIM cards and mobile network — SIM card settings — "your AT&T SIM" — Wi-Fi calling. Or it doesn't work? (I can't check, haven't got Cricket in my country)
