[Guide] [H930DS] VoWiFi on LG V30+ India - LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion

This is only meant for the Indian V30 H930DS devices and specific to Reliance Jio and Airtel Networks.
ROOT is necessary for this. And I have tried it only on the stock rom.
Thanks to @ChazzMatt, @seadersn, @nkar for their posts which helped me figure out this.
So I was trying to figure out how to get vowifi using Seadersn's method found that we have a path called /OP/OPEN_ESA_DS/config which has most of the config files. So i enabled VoWifi from the vo_config.xml. This allows you to have vowifi in the *#*#4636#*#* menu. But the reason we need a new update is because the network provider has to give some info of the settings they use (like apn and etc.) so the manufacturer adds them in. I will detail it below, step by step.
I am not responsible if you brick your device so please take a backup of your /OP as mentioned in Seadersn's link.
Tip: Use quickedit text editor pro if you can get the apk because it has search function which is helpful.
Note:
1. I made changes only to my specific network provider which is reliance jio.
2. Have a look inside the v30 file and the v40 files and look for your specific network and see what is new in the v40 file for your network.
3. Don't copy and replace the V40 files to the v30. Open the files mentioned and copy your relevant MCC/MNC data and append it to the v30 root /OP/OPEN_ESA_DS/config/xxx.xml file.
4. I have attached the V40 OP zip file which can be found below in this thread.
Things you need to know initially:
You have to know the mnc and mcc of your network provider. You can get this from your apn settings in your mobile networks. There is a setting for mnc and mcc.
If you are not sure, you can google and see for "reliance jio mcc and mnc" and you will get an image like this.
If you see, I use MCC:405 and MNC:861 which is specific to Karnataka. And i also use 862 and 869 when i travel.
There are 4 main files that have the network configuration for all the service providers in india. All these files have every MNC and MCC we use in india. So you need to make changes to the ones you are in and whichever you travel to.
vo_config.xml - This is to enable VoWiFi for that MCC/MNC
ims_conf.xml - Enabling VoWiFi settings specific like roaming, emergency, etc.
ike_conf.xml - Has specific operator settings to make VoWiFi actually work.
mapcon_conf. xml - Again, Has specific operator settings to make VoWiFi actually work.
rcs.xml
Steps:
1. Open OP/OPEN_ESA_DS/config/vo_config.xml and goto your network and enable as mentioned below. Append what is not in your v30 device. I have added epdg_enable="1" which i found actually working. So try that also.
<info mcc="405" mnc="861"><!-- RJIL IN -->
<prop
support_volte="1"
support_vilte="1"
support_vowifi="1"
support_viwifi="1"
epdg_enable="1"
support_vt="1"
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2. Open the ims_conf.xml in the V40 and search for your mnc. It will take you to your network because there is a huge list. In the V30 file, you will only find the <volte...> settings.
But in the V40 file you will find <vowifi...> settings also after the volte settings for your specific network.
Copy the vowifi settings from the V40 file and append it to the V30 file.
3. Same as the above, you need to goto ike_conf.xml and search for your mnc. Make sure your corresponding mcc is also there.
Append the data from the V40 file to your V30 root file.
4. Same as the above, you need to goto mapcon_conf.xml and search for your mnc. Make sure your corresponding mcc is also there.
Append the data from the V40 file to your V30 root file.
5. Also make change to the rcs.xml and enable RCS.
Now Reboot your phone for the settings to take place.
Last Step:
Go into *#546368#*930#>SVC Menu>VoWifi>WiFi calling toggle:1.
Wait for 2 mins and it should show up.
You will not have the vowifi button in network settings. If you want the vowifi button, you need to go the LG engineering menu *#546368#*930# and enable the UX. I don't suggest this because i did some wrong settings and had to start from scratch.
You will see the dialer showing the wifi symbol as below.

Few Pains: Sometimes call to the same network (reliance jio) doesn't go but incoming calls and calls to other networks go fine. I am trying to figure out why. Sometimes after 3-5 days it worked and again went off. But incoming from any number and outgoing to non-jio numbers works well.

Hi Bro,
Modified all 4 xml mentioned in OP with Quickedit Pro.. After Restart i can see Vowifi enabled and activated in *#*#4636#*#* menu. But when connected to wifi i can't see vowifi. In dialer i can see only HD . Is there anything i need to do more.?

Are you making change for YOUR related mcc and mnc? Can you attach the config files and share here. I'll check and let you know. Also tell me what network you have and the mcc and mnc that you have in the APN settings.

Also, The wifi symbol in the dialer will come after some time. Maybe 20 to 30 seconds.

The ike_conf or mapcon_conf have 2-3 entries. You have copied only one. Check on that.

As you said i missed an entry in mapcon and added the same. Still no vowifi. I have once again attached corrected xml files for your reference. Sorry to keep on bothering you.

Try these two. One at a time.
1. In carrier_code.xml, look for your mcc/mnc and add like I added below. Only add the extra mvno things.
<profile carrier="RJIL" suffix="IND" carrier_code_fast="" carrier_code_late="RJIL" carrier_code_sub="" country="IN" iccid="" mcc="405" mnc="861" mvno_type="spn" mvno_match_data="Jio 4G" />
Reboot.
2. Goto settings--> network--> mobile networks--> name of apns --> three dots --> add apn
Name: IMS
APN: ims
APN type: ims
Protocol: IPv4
roaming protocol: IPv4
three dots --> save

Thanks a lot for this! It's working great with the top symbol and everything.

I had to do one more step.
Go into *#546368#*930#>VoWifi>WiFi calling toggle:1. This worked immediately and the settings stays permanently even after a reboot. Incase you want to disable VoWifi then do it the same way.
Whatever you set under UX options resets after a reboot so that's not very helpful.

Ok thanks. I thought that automatically gets set from the XML. I'll add it as a setting in the main method. I think i enabled it when i was experimenting.

I'm guessing the XML just enables the support but the actual enable switch is under the secret setting.

Did you set rcs to enabled?
And did you add an extra apn for ims?

@nokia_16 Don't do these steps. I think this is what caused all the trouble for me. I have updated the main post with RCS and also enabling the VoWiFi switch from the engineering menu. Check the main post again.

Guess its not working for me or something is wrong with my settings. I tried editing all 4 xml files and also rcs xml file. Also enabled vowifi in secret settings to true.... Not worked. Tried adding mvno code to carrier config and restarted no use. Also tried adding IMS apn, but apn is not getting added when i click save. I even tried restoring op config from twrp and tried everything once again. Not worked.

well i need to make more mirrors etc so i have alot of work todo
Best of luck with this RDlius, you're probably going to have a bunch of newbs ask you the same question a million times.
Here's a few more for the FAQ:
GPS works in Cupcake, and works in Donut with the latest rootfs
'My Location' based on cell tower location does not work
USB Headset & headphone adapters work
Flashing an Android rom does not work on Kaiser. Why? Because no one has written the drivers to initialize the hardware from boot.
If you have a SIM PIN enabled, you must disable it in Windows Mobile or Android will not run.
If your screen flips the wrong way when you open the keyboard, use the zImage from 23-Oct-09
If your screen flips the wrong way when you close the keyboard, go to Settings -> Display and uncheck Orientation
Also, "Hater.exe" should be haret.exe

Try changing the value of board-htckaiser.panel_type in your default.txt . Different Kaisers have different screen models. The value can be 1, 2, or 3.
For example, mine is set to 2. Here is my default.txt:
Code:
set RAMSIZE 0x07000000
set RAMADDR 0x10000000
set FBDURINGBOOT 0
set MTYPE 1553
set KERNEL zImage-23-10-09
set initrd initrd.gz
#
# The following kernel parameters are useful
# ppp.username - The username used to connect to the network when dialing #777
# ppp.password - The password used to connect to the network when dialing #777
# msm_sdcc.msmsdcc_fmax - The maximum frequency (in Hz) used by the SD controller
# pm.sleep_mode - The mode used when the phone is off
# 0=Power Collapse Suspend, 1=Power Collapse, 2=Apps Sleep,
# 3=Slow Clock and Wait for Interrupt 4=Wait for Interrupt
# Default is 3, use 0 for best power savings
# board-htcvogue.panel_type - Panel type used to power the panel off and on
# 0=Don't power off the panel (Default)
# 1=Hitachi 2=Topoly 3=Samsung
# mddi_client_vogue.vsync - Use hardware vsync, default is 1 but should be 0 if
# panel_type is 0
#
#original
set cmdline "board-htckaiser.panel_type=2 ppp.nostart=0 pm.sleep_mode=0 mddi.width=240 mddi.height=320 lcd.density=120 no_console_suspend clock-7x00.mddi=0xa51 clock-7x00.ahb_div=2 clock-7x00.slow=1 clock-7x00.voltage=1 board-kaiser-keypad.atttilt=1"

Cant get MMS messaging to work on this build for some reason, everything else is fine, just no MMS, says unable to download and although MMS messages look like they have sent, they are not recieved.

ting: Not able to send or receive MMS

This solution applies to the ting network... just posting here in case someone else has this issue.
Symptom: People did not receive pictures we sent and we did not receive pictures that they sent.
Environment:
I am using a Samsung Galaxy SIII, CM10 rom, using cm-10-20121118-NIGHTLY
My wife is using a Samsung Galaxy SIII, stock rom, rooted, but without the latest patch.
Solution for my phone:
It seems there was no obvious way to natively edit the MMS setting with CM10. Various sources indicated I needed to edit a file. To make things easier, I installed DropBear SSH server.
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.shkschneider.dropbearserver[/url]
SSH in, then remount the file system:
[email protected]:/ # cd /system/etc
[email protected]:/system/etc # mount -o rw,remount /system
Using vi, I altered /system/etc/apns-conf.xml to replace references for mms.sprintpcs.com to be mms.plspictures.com
Rebooted, MMS now works. Reboot may not have been necessary even.
Solution for my wife's phone:
dial ##DATA#
select Edit
enter MSL (obtain from ting)
select Others
select MMSC URL
change from mms.sprintpcs.com to mms.plspictures.com
save and reboot
jamesnearn.blogspot.com/2012/11/not-receiving-mms-w-ting-on-my-samsung.html
James, did you buy your SGS3 straight from ting? Or was it originally a sprint one you had and then switched over?
Curious because I'm trying to look for sprint SGS3 users who have successfully switched to ting.
Easy method for CM10
An even easier method for CM10 is to modify the apns-conf.xml before flashing.
What I did is as follows:
Download the apns-conf.zip attached to this post. (do not flash it read below!)
Extract the apns-conf.xml from that zip and save for step below.
Download CM10 file to be flashed.
Open in winrar or another program that allows you to edit a zip.
Browse to /system/etc/ and drop in the apns-conf.xml to replace the regular version.
Flash as usual and MMS and LTE will be set already.
If you flash often there is another option. I have a custom flashable zip I created with custom ringtones and some other stuff I like so I added the file into that zip. I simply flash that after flashing the Rom and the file is overwritten.
outstanding
james, your solution is a little tech-heavy, but it's exactly what i was looking for. i edited the xml file on my rooted and flashed (currently liquidsmooth) samsung galaxy s3, rebooted, and voila, functional mms. i tried at first just using a terminal... but wow what a pain haha. ssh + putty is definitely the way to go. thanks a ton.

This is the same solution that Voyager Mobile (another Sprint MVNO) has you do.
I brought my own EVO 3D to Voyager Mobile. After searching for a couple hours over a couple of days, I figured out what "else" i had to do besides the above instructions. I had to delete the MMS "proxy" address and "port".
So, in EPST (##3282#),
go to "Advanced"
at the very bottom, choose "MMSC Setting"
pre 1): take a screenshot of what you see in case you need to put it back. For my ROM, hold down power button till a menu pops up, choose "screenshot".
1) MMSC: (if not already done, change to "http://mms.plspictures.com" like above.
2) MMS proxy: (not set) (I had to delete the address that was here)
3) MMS port: (not set) (had to delete)
After I deleted the "proxy" server address and "port", the settings took effect immediately (didn't have to save. I'd prob go back into EPST just to check) and I was able to receive MMS.
Hope this helps.

I am just now joining this specific thread cause my wife has just moved over to Ting with her SGS3 and I am working through the foibles of the transition...
Did the APN swap and that seemed to resolve the LTE coverage but still hung on MMS... might try a few more things to determine whats happening
I have moved 6 phones to Ting, 3 of them S3 and haven't had any problems with any of them. I use Google Voice for texting so for pictures I use the messaging app
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
Gladyscoleman said:
First contact with your service provider that your Data option is activated from backend or not ?
If yes then set the settings of MMS in MMS settings option then restart your cell phone then send first MMS on your own number for the confirmation of Sending and Receiving.

I have a GSIII sprint on the TING network. MMS will not work, I've tried every solution I have found, installing the APN's fresh with a new rom then wiping it, I tried this advanced method setup an SSH server and altered the APN (which was fine, it had all the right info in it or at least was the exact one I had downloaded and flashed).
Any other solutions for this phone? I almost am ready to go back to stock but i'd love to avoid that since stock blows on this phone. I'd rather not have to get a new phone...

[Q] OpenVPN & FireTV Help?

Hi, Hopefully somebody can help me, I am trying to use my OpenVPN connection on my FireTV
I have been following this helpful guide and have installed everything correctly but when I transfer my .ovpn config file and open it on the FireTV it should ask for my username and password, However it does not. I don't know if its perhaps a problem with how the "OpenVPN Settings" app is reading my .ovpn file (Using CyberGhost).
Or can anyone advise another way of getting it working on the FireTV?
Unfortunately I cant configure it at router level as it is not fast enough to handle the encryption.
Thanks for any advice.

If the username and password are embedded in the .ovpn file, then it won't ask you to enter them again. It should automatically connect you to the VPN server you choose.

I dont believe they are in the .ovpn file as when I had it briefly enabled on my router after importing the file I still had to type them in.

.ovpn file needs the certificate file to work properly. upload the certificate (.crt) to Fire TV if the certificate is not included in the .ovpn configuration file

I think the .ovpn file also includes all the certs as when I tried it on my router I noticed they were pre-filled. I dont believe CyberGhost have a seperate .crt download.
After removing all security related info (just put XXX in place of your data like certs/usernames/passwords, DON'T REMOVE ANY LINES THOUGH), can you post your ovpn file? do you see a line which says "auth-user-pass" in the ovpn file?
I just installed OpenVPN as per the guide you referenced and works like a charm (I don't use any commerical VPN, I have OpenVPN activated on my DD-WRT router on ASUS 1900AC). I use certificates to authenticate, not username/password though. But, if you post the file, it might be helpful.

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

Note, the file ends at </ca>.
I found 4 problem lines in your file.
1. dhcp-release
2. dhcp-renew
(These 2 just don't work)
3. fragment 1300
4. mssfix 1300
(These 2 are not supported on Android. Please refer: https://docs.openvpn.net/docs/openvpn-connect/openvpn-connect-android-faq.html)
Once you remove these 4 lines (AND EVERYTHING AFTER THE </ca> tag), I am getting the prompt for username/password.
-- Also, please verify that your app has all the prerequisites listed by the above poster.
Hope all this helps. My suggestion is to copy my paste of the file, stick in your certificate and give it a shot. Best of luck!

Make sure you do a force shutdown and reopen the app every time you make any changes to your config file and upload them to FTV. I am not sure how the caching works on Android or within this app. To be on the safe side, shutdown/reopen the app.
Your certficate file is publicly available. If after you do as the previous poster suggested and use my text as your file, post your complete file here that still does not work, if it does not work! We can go through the logs to see where the holdup might be.
I am assuming you are ONLY using username/password to log into your VPN provider. If you are required to also use client certificates, you will have to add 2 extra XML tags after the </ca> tag.
Seems CG uses a different method for OpenVPN on Android devices vs a router or PC (You'll see below). I wonder if you should of just stopped at the "Configure VPN" part of the guide & sideloaded & installed the CyberGhost APP(.apk).
For some reason https://apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader/ can't handle the ".de." in the link of the CG's apk @ the PlayStore. So I downloaded it from another device. I would recommend you install it from the PlayStore once you've added that to your FireTV. Uploaded the file below but it's always best you download your own.
Also found this: (It's from 2013 so not sure if things have changed but it is the third help item that pops up on CG's site when I do a "Android OpenVPN" search)
Configure OpenVPN for Android (> 4.x)
Configure OpenVPN for Android (> 4.x)
Posted by Uli Brügmann on 25 February 2013 01:22 PM
On Android, CyberGhost VPN can be used with OpenVPN, if the following requirements are met: OpenVPN app is preinstalled on your distribution, you own a Premium or Premium Plus CyberGhost subscription, an online CyberGhost account and a OpenVPN configuration file, which will be created for you in your account.
Please note: Android versions below 4.x don't support OpenVPN. To be able to use OpenVPN anyway, you need to root and modd your device. An alternative (and recommended) solution is the usage of the L2TP/IPSec protocol.

There is also and update: New VPN addresses for the manual configuration of the native protocols
New VPN addresses for the manual configuration of the native protocols
Posted by Uli Brügmann on 14 May 2014 02:21 PM
Users of mobile devices and desktop PCs who usually configure their native protocols manually, should acknowledge that CyberGhost changed some address types. While addresses used with Premium and Premium Plus subscriptions (e.g. 'us-l2tp.cyberghostvpn.com') remain unchanged, users with Special Editions or promotional activation keys should re-adjust the server addresses for L2TP, PPTP and OpenVPN connections as follows:

So I am only seeing the two solutions. Either use the App once you have OpenVPN fully installed which sound like you have & then add your account info. Or log into your account to get the proper files from CG which should include your credentials. Hope you figure it out & share the info. Will be using CG too, eventually.
@xtrememc8 @dbdoshi @Y314K
Thank you very much for all your help, I have tried as instructed but still no luck.
After checking the "prerequisites" menu I can confirm everything is correct, All green dots.
I have tried editing my .ovpn file and it certainly is a step forward, I removed the four lines etc and it now asks me for my username and password, But when I enter these and tick the box to enable the VPN it just keeps toggling between Connecting / Reconnecting (caused by tls-error).
Is it safe to post my untouched .ovpn file just to make sure I did not miss something crucial when I edited it? (It does contain my username)
Yes CyberGhost only require you to enter your username / password after using their .ovpn file during any OpenVPN configuration.
That's an interesting point, It never crossed my mind to try side-loading their app. Perhaps if I cant get this working I should try that. I'm wondering what would be better suited or if either can auto-start?

? Is the CG configuration file you are trying to use specifically made for Android ?? Or is it the one you had on your PC or router which I think does not suppose to work according to CG. The configuration files seem to be OS specific.

Yeah its the Android specific file I am using. They offer it for os 2.0 or 4.0

Well FireTV is based on Android 4.2 actually. The FireOS is 3.0 but not the Android it is based on. I would definitely change to the Android 4.0 option @ CG when making the config file.

Try it without removing anything(any lines). That was someone else that took at look the other config file & suggested to remove lines. I would not post something related to encryption or accounts online without taking out any private info on it.

[Guide] Network signal strength and connection fix (in some cases)

Hi there.
I don't know how many of you purchased this wonderful and budget device in Europe but for me in Hungary B7 and B20 bands are quite frequently used for 4G network connection but the phone itself doesn't support them. Thanks to this I've had horrible experiences like refreshing a page 20 times to reach it. I've found a solution and attached the video here.
After setting these I've not encountered any more "connection timed out", "error connecting to network" and such general issues.
P.S: This of course won't add these bands to your phone but will try to use all available network singnals to reach your destined network addresses.
In some cases you can further tweak your connection to fill your needs, avoid page loading problems and such annoyances/signal loss.
If you dial the "number"
Code:
*#*#4636#*#*
and call it, you'll be redirected to system information and network connection settings. I'll look like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",

Here if you live outside China you should avoid any option that has TD-SCDMA in it for it's a China exclusive protocol that was developed for densely populated areas and is only supported in that country. You may go ahead and test all these options to find the one that works best for you. For me it was LTE/CDMA/UMTS auto. The default was WCDMA only.
Step by step guide:
Go to settings app
Tap dual sim & cellular network
Choose your desired sim
Here tap access point name
Under global label choose your provider and tap the small (i) on the right
Scroll down to the bottom and set apn protocol and apn roaming protocol to IpV4/IpV6
Now tap Bearer and check each one except for unknown
On the top right tap Save
That's it. Now your network should seek all kinds ot connection to provide you access to the Internet.
Edit.: This seem not to work any longer from update number 7 and above for Realme disabled thus function. Thanks. However if you download 4G Only Network Mode then the app opens the same settings for you.
Now if you want to go bit deeper:
Copy the provided code (*#*#4636#*#*)
Now go to dialer app ( The code should be copied in there and all you have to do is to tap on the code)

Thanks greenys', Is very good the video but still if you can write the steps in text it will be better.
About the network bands, I saw in Kimovil that the 4G-LTE Network bands used here in Mexico are the B2, B4 and B5. I bought the Realme Q still with the lack of the B2 band, I think the B4 and B5 will be suficient to me since these are the bands that the bigger companys use here.
Anyone think if will be possible someday to activate that lacking network bands in this Phone?

Sure will edit my post to write down step by step. I think there is a chance that we'll be able to activate missing bands. The chipset SD712 supports them. It depends on the antenna. We'll see in December what can we do about it after source code release and bootloader unlock.
i cant open test mode
i put *#*#4636#*#* in dial and when test mode should be openned, its not

Sometimes the phone won't open it. I don't know why. Keep copying the code and going to the dial menu. Eventually it should be copied in there and all you have to do is click on it. You could try manually typing in the code and then tapping on it.
Edit.: Tweaking does not work starting 07 update and above so don't try this too much.

there's a thread here in xda to modified SD modem baseband, it required baseband calc + qxdm/qpst software. you can activate any baseband you like. search for "change modem baseband"

I've tried a shltload of those tweaks, tools, modem.img edit, change etc. Bands doesn't work that way. Certain bands are hardware limited. These tweaks only allow the usage of certain bands that are unused and hidden by default yet still supported by the baseband module and antenna. In the case of Realme Q the Europe bands are not supported. If anyone succeeds and test their device with the Russian field test apk and b3/7 are successful activated then please share here.

Well if Realme Q use different antenna then any effort won't do any good.. But I think its bull**** about antenna, its all in the software because realme 5Q which have same SD which embedded with a same modem should have same spec beside software side (modem file).
BTW how did u edit the modem.img file? the files contain in it is unreadable, yes? If you just replace the files from realme pro modem file, it won't work, I've tried that with xiaomi phone.
Why not try save the baseband modem from realme 5 pro global taken from QXDM/QPST, and export it to realme Q?

Here's a link, might be solution for your problem https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-unlock-aditional-bands-qualcomm-t2877031
Shorcut would be to try take an nv dump from realme 5 pro global and export it to your phone..
Or maybe just flash modem file from realms 5 pro then compare the build.prop and apns.XML file.. or other XML and prop file .. worth to try, yes?

Well, I talked with a ROM developer and compiler and I got this information from him (confirming my suspicion) that RMQ probably uses different antenna for some reason. I tried editing bands with QXDM/QSPT and while I successfully unlocked some B7 and B20 couldn't be unlocked despite all my various efforts and methods in the windows apps, some even resulting bootloop. However I didn't know that replacing modem.img isn't supposed to work. Some tried flashing complete rm3p rom package with clean flashing in twrp and the rom booted. That's why I thought rm3p global modem.img should work, thought it didn't.

Module to enable 5G/VoLTE/VoWIFI on Pixel4a 5G/Pixel5

Update (9 Oct 2022):
Upload module here.
Update (7 Apr 2021):
If you are looking for the manual way to add 5G support besides the magisk module way or the module does not work for you. Please refer to #54 for the detailed steps. Thanks again to @Kars88.
Update (2 Mar 2021):
In reply #45, @Kars88 discovered the magisk module to enable 5G and VoLTE/VoWIFI. Thanks to @Kars88 and the module owner ender-zhao.
Update UK VoLTE file - https://github.com/ender-zhao/Pixel...load/3.82e/Pixel5_NR_magisk_module_V3.82e.zip
Module for China users - https://github.com/ender-zhao/Pixel...load/3.82e/Pixel5_NR_magisk_module_V3.82e.zip
Module to enable VoLTE/VoWIFI switches only - https://github.com/ender-zhao/Pixel...Pixel5_VoWIFI.VoLTE_magisk_module_V1-MINI.zip
@Kars88 's KPN module is in reply #45.
Original post:
Thanks to @Lemon200, I enabled 5G on my 4a 5G with the direction - https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-to-your-pixel-5-solved.4187025/post-83964575.
VoLTE steps:
1. Install attached Volte_switchonly.zip in magisk. This module is only to enable VoLTE and VoWIFI switches in system and reboot.​2. I find my carrier's mbn file in Oneplus Nord rom (attached, you have to find yours). Use EfsTools to extract files by typing​​
EfsTools.exe extractMbn -i mcfg_sw.mbn -p mcfg
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The files we need are located in mcfg\nv\item_files\ims directory. There is a suffix in each file name... remove them (my case is __E1FF_F).​3. Reconnect QPST EFS Explorer, backup all files under nv\item_files\ims. Then replace all files in nv\item_files\ims with the files from mbn. And reboot phone. After reboot, check IMS status by dialing *#*#4636#*#*, phone info, 3-dot, IMS service status.​
IMO, it should work with Pixel5 as they are using the same SOC.
There should be a way to replace mbn files to enable both 5G and VoLTE. But I failed to replace mbn files with magisk module... bootloop... Maybe I replace the wrong files. Hope someone can find a more perfect way.

Thanks I will try this tomorrow on my pixel 5
Got this working on my Pixel 5, more info here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...r-pixel-5-solved.4187025/page-3#post-84168995
Thank you @laughterwym. It's nice to be able to fix Google's shortcomings myself with the aid of other knowledgeable members of this community. Hopefully Google will get off their lazy asses and make this 5G and volte hassle unnecessary in the future.
Where can I find the mentioned path
"nv\item_files\ims" in root explorer
Would you please explain more about the 3rd step
Thanks

Not in root explorer, you have to use QPST. There is a tool called EFS Explorer after you installed QPST which is used to modify EFS partition. More details: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/network-signal-guru.4005511/post-83499679

I have tried to replace the files in the mentioned directory with no luck to get ims registered
my phone is Pixel 5 - STC network (Saudi Arabia)
I have used the same mbn file as my Pixel 4xl which have registered ims successfully

Maybe you have to find your carrier's nbm file in attached Oneplus Nord modem files (or other 765g platform). I saw there are lots of differeces from my old Pixel3 nbm file.
Is there any chance to force activation Wi-Fi Calling? I am living in Poland and using T-Mobile, which is not supported by Google (also Google Store is not available in Poland).
I would like to buy pixel 4a 5G, however VoWiFi is necessary for me due to coverage issues.

I cannot verify VoWiFi as my carrier does not support it. Wait for other's solution then.

I have usd Vodafone UK in Volte folder
Yes you needs QPST EFS file explorer to get it done
Does anyone know where/how to get mbn files from other phones with the same modem? I got 5G working on my Pixel 5, WiFi calling works but having IMS issues so I'm eager to keep trying.

You can download the full fw from phone vendor's website. Extract the radio image then... mbn for redmi k30 5g is attached.
sorry for being dumb. I am able to enable 5G with QPST, but cannot understand this post on how to enable VoLTE. Could someone who is successful in doing this provide a step by step guide on how I may do this?
Thanks so much in advance
Edit: I am able to enable VoLTE now, thanks for the guide

You just need to replace the files in nv/item_files/ims with the suitable ims files for your country
Please specify what mbn file you're using and i will provide you with ims files

After some more research and trial & error, I can now have access to volte on my phone, but thanks for offering help.
The only thing is, I can only get ims registered and volte available by setting the preferred network type (on the page *#*#4636#*#*) to NR/LTE, while the default value NR/LTE/CDMA/EvDo/GSM/WCDMA does not work. I wonder if this may cause any problem

I lost VoLTE today, and because I have set the network type to NR/LTE only, I missed some phone calls without any warning. Then I checked the folder nv/item_files_ims and found there are some new files generated.
Run through the guide to enable VoLTE again, I will see how it goes in the next few days

Make sure to keep the network set on LTE from sim settings
