Three Firmware? - Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers

Hi, would anyone have the Three UK firmware for a Pixel 2 XL? I have no wifi calling and Three state it is because i bought it from Sony unlocked and not from them. Therefore they can not allow WiFi calling. The only way is to buy a new phone from them!!
Thanks in advance.
I also have a Sony XZ1 with the same issue and i am posting in that forum aswwell, so whatever one i can get the firmware for is the one i will use until i get the new 4XL on a Black friday deal hopefully.

have you tried a friend's sim in your phone. Ee support WiFi calling.
Is the option there in your phone to turn on WiFi calling ?

Hi,
No, not yet, but when i updated my Pixel 2 xL to A10 few weeks ago and noticed that I can no longer enable Wifi Calling. To verify I dialed "*#*#4636#*#*" and Wifi calling is not provisioned, neither is VolLTE (greyed out) same with the Sony XZ1.

Try a different sim. I think the issue is actually 3 or sim. Generally pixel phones don't come with a custom firmware. It's not customised by the phone provider unlike other brands.
Other thing I'd check is router settings

Apologies for the resurrection. My Pixel 2XL also won't do wifi calling on Three, yet my wife's Pixel 3A on the same network works quite happily. What gives? Both phones were bought SIM free from Google.

Thanks...

I'm having exactly the same issue. My Three UK Pixel 2 XL (running stock Android 10) can't access wi-fi calling, but I was able to activate it yesterday on my wife's Pixel 3a XL (also on Three UK) without issues. The Wifi calling option simply isn't there on my device.. Is there anything fundamentally different between the two devices which would prevent me from activating it?

Will wifi calling cost anything on Verizon?

Hey,
Today i got my pixel xl I bought through Google and so far am loving it and notice the wifi calling settings and set it up and it works on Verizon. My question is will I be charged for using it?
Thank
Nope. No charge. They actually want you to use it to free up their network.
How does it work? Say I'm on a cruise ship with phone in airplane mode and wifi running will i be able to use wifi calling?
If the internet connection was fast and reliable enough (which it probably wouldn't be on a ship) then yes, you could use it.

Notice any differences now that verizon Pixel xl is provisioned for AT&T?

So i just got a phone call from AT&T network support. Talked with an awesome guy by the name of Dustin. Anyway, he said that the verizon pixel xl is now officially provisioned on the AT&T network.
So my question to anyone who had issues with LTE or Volte or anything like that who has a Verizon Pixel is whether or not you notice any differences now?

I have a Pixel XL from the Google store that I've been using on AT&T since the 22nd. Didn't receive any type of phone call about this..

I have no issues using my Google Store Pixel XL on At&t. I didn't even tell them that I got a new phone. I do not have WiFi calling but I am not super worried about it since minutes are free.

I don't have any issues either, but I would love to have VoLTE and HD Voice.

I spoke with a rep at At&t and they mentioned that they are going to allow non-at&t branded devices to have HD calling and Wifi calling no later than spring 2017. We will see if that actually comes true, but here's to wishful thinking.

Oh man let's hope. Assuming you are with AT&T, do you know if I need to add HD Voice and VoLTE to my mobile plan? I can see it on the features page on their site but haven't noticed an option to add it to my account.

my understanding is that it would be baked into an update and then we would just need to select that option under network preferences. Not totally sure, but I would guess At&t will give Google the information to get it working on the device. I am no expert though.

I think you're correct. My mom has an iPhone 6S Plus and I was able to enable VoLTE through the Settings app.

pixel 2xl on t-mobile

I have a question for anyone using the pixel 2 xl on T-mobile.
Does WiFi calling work and is how call quality, etc on WiFi calling?
I switched from Verizon recently and was thinking of getting the Pixel 2 xl to replace my old Moto x Pure. I need WiFi calling though because I don't get very good signal where I work.
Thanks!

Yes and it works fine for me
Works fine

Volte on Sprint

Has anyone found a way to activate Volte on Sprint network with Pixel 2 XL?
I just moved from AT&T to Sprint. I didn't realize how big of a problem it is going to be to not have data and call working at the same time.
I don't think so. I've been on Sprint since forever so I'm relatively used to not having data while on calls (which is rare for me) but it does suck when you need it.

AT&T Wireless Calling

This will determine if I buy this phone, have been eyeing OnePlus 7 for a few months but haven't seen anybody attempt to use wifi calling on AT&T Network.

Everything works great, including call forwarding codes etc. This phone is basically a turd on Verizon, no wifi calling, and no texting. My plan is to give the AT&T pay as you go plan a 2 month trial, I will forward my VZW phone to it, and put it through the paces, if all works out, I will get rid of VZW and move to At&t.
I found out, while you can enable Wifi calling on AT&T, it does not actually work when there is no network. OnePlus support says that plan on fixing it on a future update. It does however work on Google Fi.
