Vodafone (UK) Wifi Calling on Android 10 - Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers

Sorted wifi calling on Vodafone UK using https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78858125&postcount=6
Updated to Android 10 (Keep typing Windows 10 which is scary!!!!) and now the option is gone.
When I enter the code and go into phone information Wifi provisioning is greyed out and cannot be turned on.
I have turned wifi calling off via the vodafone app and turn back on again but still no joy.

I didnt have wifi calling at first, i did search for it on settings tab and it re appeared, im vodafone UK also.
Make sure carrier settings is up to date aswell.

Wifi calling is still here

Can someone on vodafone uk compare your wifi calling settings with mine please? Was working before update. Cant move the settings to on.
Thanks to anyone who can

Show your IMS settings, there u see, if u're registered for VoLTE or WFC.
Perhaps anything went wrong with APN settings after update?
Choose back to default on APN settings, or check them manually with the providers one.

Mines provisioned, but they are administrator only, hence greyed out and you cant toggle them yourself, only your carrier unless you root it, try adding clearing carrier settings, if you do you will have to clear the message app aswell, but sync will bring back messages, download shortcutter, navigate to carrier settings and toggle wifi , and also add ims apn, name ims, apn name is ims, set to ipv4 and ipv6 on both, dont fill anything else in and save it. now toggle it, it should jump back to default after you toggled it. If you disabled the wifi tab on vodafone website, each toggle takes 24 hours to register

All sorted. Took 3 attempts with vodafone. The last person said they would force the settings through the server and hey presto. All sorted.
Am now on vodafone settings version ending in 305.2 (It may be of use to someone!)

You may have to manually enter your mobile network settings, go to virgin mobiles website and search for manual settings in support section.
I'm with T-Mobile UK and data works perfect.
Good luck to you, and if you sort it, report back how you solved the issue.
I have set correct APN settings and when I enable data, E appears above signal indicator but it is grey which means no internet access ( blue is internet access)

XZ2 Compact APNs Locked?

I've been using my XZ2 Compact on Verizon since it was released. No issues. Switched to Total Wireless today, and my internet will not work. Voice and text works fine. Total Wireless operates on Verizon's network. This SIM card works fine when I put it into a Google Pixel.
My APN settings are locked (there is no "+" button). Automatically updating the APN settings adds a Verizon profile that is totally different than the one that automatically popped up on my Pixel. I can delete the existing APN profile, but I cannot add one. I've restarted the phone many times, both while connected to WiFi and not. I get internet back immediately if I reboot with the Verizon SIM.
I've searched around the interwebs, and I cannot find anything. Any help would be appreciated.

I use another mvno and the part that's most important is 'apn name' when using an mvno mine has to be set to say reseller... Have you tried pressing download internet settings? That usually fixes the problem and bring back the plus or allow you to manually change the apn setting after it downloads it. Take it you aren't using the dual sim as sometimes switching the Sims around brings back the apn menu.
Thanks for the insight. I have tried downloading settings several times, it just bring back the "VZWINTERNET" APN.
It is a single SIM US model.
I have not tried renaming the APN. That is the one thing I can edit on it.

Does total wireless publish the apn settings? Sometimes ios/android uses slightly different settings. Just look at what apn name should be, and try to match it up..

I'll try that as soon as I get home, thanks!
I can't believe it! Changing APN Name to "TRACFONE.VZWENTP" is all that was needed. Thanks a bunch!

No data during call after oreo update

Hello. I'm hoping that someone can help me out. I have a Verizon note 8 that i use on straight talk for the longest it never would update to oreo but then i cracked the screen and purchased another used verizon note 8 from ebay. It came to me with a cricket sim card in it. I turned it on and connected it to wifi just to check it out before i transferred anything and it immediately wanted to update so i let it and it updated to oreo. I swapped over my ST sim into the new phone and stuck the cricket sim into the old phone and it updated too. But now my problem is that I keep getting the message that data is unavailable during calls. When i check the settings it says i am on CDMA/EVEDO/GSM/WCDMA. And there is no option to edit my APN. If i click on the mobile network i have the option for LTE/3G/2G but if i choose this nothing works and i have no option to go back to the CDMA/EVEDO/GSM/WCDMA and thus have to do a factory reset. I have tried texting APN to 611611 but it states my APN is already setup. I called tech support for ST and they told me to call back from another phone which i cant do until this evening when i get off work. So i thought in the mean time i would reach out to the real pro's on here and see if anyone else has had this issue. Did i mess up by updating with the cricket SIM inserted? Or could it be that i just didnt call straight talk when i swapped phones? i just took the sim card out of one phone and stuck it in the other. I really appreciate any advice anyone may have. Oh and I've tried finding the settings for HD calling to enable them, not there.
Thanks,
Amy
I'm having this same issue with my Verizon branded note 8 that I manually updated to Oreo. I called my carried, Red Pocket and they stated that this is enabled for my account. In Oreo the hidden menus seem to be disabled and I've tried other things. I may have to see if I can go back to Nougat. The dialer hidden menu I tried was *#2683662#. On the Verizon forums, other were able to get to the menu using *#4636# and enable VoLTE but that seems to be disabled for me. I tested from my coworkers note 8 and it seems to work fine on their phone.

I reflashed CRID and the CSC but my Service Provider SW ver. still says VZW/XAA/VZW. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Has anyone figured this out? I am having this very issue and Straight Talk has no clue what I am talking about.
I found this on the Samsung website and it looks promising but nothing has changed. I was able to see that the radiobutton/checkbox for LTE Enhanced is checked.
To enable HD Calling, download Shortcut Master (Secret Codes) Lite from developer vndnguyen. You will need to find the apk as it does not appear to be in the play store any longer.
1) From the option menu located in the upper right hand corner, choose Search.
2) There is a search field at the bottom of the screen. Type lte then hit the Search key.
3) Scroll down to Mobile Networks. Choose the one that show EnhancedLteServices. Then click Launch. Then click the box to enable HD Calling.
I was also able to set the APN settings to Bearer: unspecified using Shortcut Master lite but this made no difference whatsoever.
Finally, you don't need to do a factory reset each time you go from CDMA/EVEDO/GSM/WCDMA to LTE/3G/2G (auto connect), simply search in settings for reset network and then reset the network settings and reboot.
I was able to get the SIM card trick to work for me on my Note 8 as well. I have redpocket and prior to doing the sim card trick I did not have VoLTE. Now I do. It's too bad that this is majorly inconvenient and it won't stick after a reboot, by the sounds of it. I haven't tried yet. I may just tape the sim to the back of my phone or inside my case. Also, on my Note 8 prior to this, I was seeing vzw/xaa/vzw and now it has the vzw/vzw/vzw CSC with the RP sim in. I'm hoping that there is another way to fix this but at least I have a work around.
I updated to Oreo on my verizon note 8.
I dont have any options for advanced HD Calling, Wifi calling.
When I go to ims settings it says denied.
Any ideas

WiFi calling on unlocked p2XL on vzw

I have been trying to figure this out since I got this phone in late 2017. How do I get the wifi calling to work on vzw with my unlocked 2xl? Reading on the internet seems to indicate that there is some software missing for this feature to work with vzw. This 2xl may have wifi calling on T-Mobile for example, but not vzw because it isn't "carrier branded" for vzw. I'm assuming that's some piece of software.
Does anyone know what this is and is it a shareable file that someone could provide and explain where I need to put it in my phone via solid explorer to get the wifi calling working on this phone? I was so excited for that feature when I upgraded from my s4, and have never had it yet. It's one downfall for the unlocked phone.
Anyone? Do I just need to flash a Verizon radio image or something like that?
I have also been trying to do this as well, in that menu, it is not provisioned, does that mean my carrier needs to do something?
Mod Edit: removed portions of quote no longer needed

After setting up android 10, I went to settings>Network & internet > Mobile Network > Advanced, and tapped wifi calling, turned the toggle on and a screen popped up "activate wifi calling;" it required me to enter the emergency location information address.. I pressed save, and wifi calling was activated.
Are you on Verizon with an unlocked pixel 2XL I take it? Were you too unable to get Wi-Fi calling working on Verizon before the Android 10 update?
Is there anyone out there that has information on this? How is vzw locking out bring your own devices from their WiFi calling and several other services? What identifier on the phone are they using and how can it be tricked with root? Are there any Xposed modules that could make this work?

I have my pixel 2xl from google and it's working without issue.
Go to settings, network and internet tap on mobile network and scroll down to advanced and it's at the bottom (above apn settings). That's all I had to do. Nothing special even though I'm rooted it still had nothing to do with root.
Let me know if this helped

Yes, see my post down below
I have been reading and reading and reading on this. I can't find a way to make these carrier services work. What can I do? Here is what I see when I dial *#*#4636#*#* in my dialer.
The options are turned out turned on but greyed out for Wi-Fi calling, video calling, and UT interface. It tells me my IMS registered and voice over LTE is available. Do I need to change any settings in this section of my phone app? Do I have to change my preferred network type to something other than LTE / CDMA automatic, or change my radio band? What about the SIP server?
No one knows of a work around?

This has happen to me a couple times when I was using an essential phone and tried to get WiFi calling to work on it. Once I went back to my unlocked pixel 2xl I had to call the help line and get my "video calling" turned back on. Which in turn re activated my WiFi calling. Just have them check i bet something got turned off on their end.

Had the same on my wife's P6. The connection would appear briefly, the call sometimes would go through but then connection lost and asked to switch off plane mode by the system. Tried 3 different sim cards, hard reset etc.
Filed a return and her new phone is working as it should now.
That sux, as mentioned an RMA may be needed...
Started happening to me when I updated to v37. It was fine until then. I'll probably flash the old radio image later on tonight.
Edit: nvm, the radio.img is the same between 36 and 37. It is odd that this just started happening in the last 24-48h.

Your wife is lucky.
I've read on the link i posted that a guy rma 3 time with the same issue ....
If someone figures out a fix, please let me know. I am getting desperate here.
Been eyeballing the device ...from LTE to No Service..back to H+ than picking up signal again rotating for about 4-10 mins
Now I'm testing out turning off adaptive connectivity under network and internet sitting inside my office now.
Fixed on my end.
Settings> Network and Internet> Setting bolt icon next to my mobile carrier (T-Mobile)> Access Point Name> Created my own with the same settings from my carrier (T-Mobile) but with "APN type" only having: default,supl,mms,DUN
The rest of the APN stuff seemed to break my mobile data.
Hope this works for others too.

Interesting. Did you contact T-Mobile or Google and asked about this?
This seems like the type of issue that should be easy to replicate.
I would suggest to contact Google either way, since your phone might have a hardware issue (partially defect antenna or whatever) and you need to sort this out, before you run out of warranty and get problems later down the road (fix not working anymore).

So do you mean go into SIM card network page where you can see APN volte etc....under APN and create a new APN but with the exact same setting from the carrier ?

This worked for me. Thanks bro!
I started by turning off 2G. Worked for about 3 or so days. Then the issue came back. So, I turned off WiFi calling because I read somewhere that it was causing issues. I haven't had the problem since. It's only been a few days though. FYI I'm on Verizon.
I'm pretty sure it's yet another bug on the long list of them on this phone..
Go into settings > Network and internet > Sims click your provider there scroll down to Preferred network type change to LTE. I figured this out on my wife's phone. You'll loose 5g but it'll get you by temporarily until you figure out a better solution.
