I had already posted this somewhere inside a thread but many people still keep asking the same question.
Attached is a simple Magisk module to enable VoLTE if it is not enabled for your country/carrier.
I don't guarantee that it will work for everybody ... it did work for me though ...
Of course you must be rooted and have Magisk.
Just install attached module in Magisk, then reboot.
The mod has properties for 5G and VoWifi ... BUT absolutely no guarantee here!!!
I do not have 5G and I do not have VoWIFI ... so I cannot even test if these properties do anything or not.
How to check if this is working?
BEFORE installing the module, go to dialer, type *#*#4636#*#*
Select: Phone info, you will see a screen like the screenshot attached below.
Check the line called: 'VoLTE-registration', if the radio button if OFF, you do NOT have VoLTE.
Now install the module, reboot and check the same screen again. If all is well, the radio button for VoLTE-registration should now be ON.
Finally, go to the dialer, dial your voice mail. Your data icon the the statusbar should still be LTE(+)/4G(+). If that is the case you now have VoLTE.
If it does not work for you ... bad luck ... just un-install the module in Magisk.
i tested 5g is still unworkable.

Thanks ... well ... it was worth a try ;-/
Hey man, thanks for posting this.
Hmm so I have "VoLTE Provisioned" rather than "registration", which is toggled on but greyed out (like Wi-Fi Calling - which definitely does work and is supported by my UK EE carrier).
So in theory, based off these settings, perhaps VoLTE should work given the setting looks the same as WiFi Calling and is supported by my carrier, but I don't see HD calling work (this is without this module...)
After installing this module, what I did notice change in the *#*'4636*#*# menu is "Video Calling Provisoned) became toggled on, but also remained greyed out but weirdly when making a call my signal dropped to saying "3G" and "H", with no VoLTE being activated. Removing the module made calls return back to 4G calls, still with no indication of VoLTE.
Posting my experience nonetheless!

What do mean precisely with "indication of VoLTE"? There is no icon that pops up when you have VoLTE (as opposed to for example OnePlus phones which show a "VoLTE" icon in the status bar).
HD calling is something different - AFAIK nothing to do with VoLTE.
It is normal that you cannot toggle the buttons - similar as in my case.
If during calling, your data remains on 4G then actually there was no need to install this module ;-)
In my case:
- before module installed: VoLTE registration was OFF, during calling data icon changed 4G -> H
- after module installed: VoLTE registration was ON, during calling data icon remained 4G (and I actually verified I still had same mobile internet speeds during not calling)

Ah, my presumption by "indication" was either a status bar icon or perhaps something on the dialler screen e.g. with Wifi Calling I see the WiFi icon next to the contacts name in my call history.
Wasn't aware about 4G being on and VoLTE - so that's something new!
But also upon checking my call history properly just now I see some calls actually do have not only a WiFi icon but also "HD" next to them (see attached screenshot) so indeed I perhaps didn't need this module!
I guess I've been wrongly looking out for a HD sign on the dialler screen during a call to indicate VoLTE....
Most of those properties are persistent properties. You just set them once with "setprop persist.blahblahblah whatevervalue" and they'll stick through a reboot.
There is definitely no need for a "magisk module" for this.
Only these 4 are non-persistent properties, and from what I can tell, they're all bogus.
ril.subscription.types=RUIM
ro.nubia.nr.support=1
ro.telephony.default_cdma_sub=0
ro.vendor.radio.5g=3
The "5g" ones are probably not advisable. For everything else, it would be nice to know what they actually do before trying them out.
AFAIK the HD (high definition) icon has in principle nothing to do with VoLTE (voice over LTE).
It is a voice codec with better quality as it suppresses background noise.
However, I believe (although I'm not 100% sure) that the HD codec is only avaible when you do VoLTE calls.
And it will only show if the caller also has VoLTE/HD and in certain network areas.
So technically it is possible to have non-HD-voice on VoLTE, although most of the time they will go together.
And the other way round, it is technically possible to have HD calls when you're not on VoLTE.
That is my understanding ... but I'm certainly not an expert in this and could as well be wrong ;-)
When a VoLTE UE originates a voice call from LTE, it executes the normal mobile origination procedure as defined in 3GPP TS 23.228 [5] section 5.6.2. The VoLTE UE initiates a SIP INVITE request, containing the SDP offer with IMS media capabilities as specified in GSMA PRD IR.92 [54] section 3. The SDP offer shall contain the AMR Narrowband codec, and it is recommended that the AMR Wideband codec is included to provide support for HD Voice and shall indicate that local preconditions for QoS are desired but not yet met, using the segmented status type (as defined in RFC 3312 [70]) and that the media stream is set to inactive as described in 3GPP TS 24.229 ([9]) clause 6.1.2

Nope .. Magisk uses resetprop ... when you remove the Magisk module the properties are gone, even those that were persisted. So it has nothing to do with sticking or not.

If you manually set the persist property manually, it will persist after reboot.
If Magisk sets the persist property, you remove the module and reboot, then the property will be gone.
No?
I'm not a fan of people throwing Magisk modules at this phone and seeing what sticks. Seeing far too many threads like that.
It's not a Qualcomm phone and should stop being treated like one.

Still no volte after flashing the module
Yes. Same here. VoLTE not activated. VoLTE uses IMS, so IMS service status needs to have Registered status.
Plus EAB is also needed for continue having internet data while on normal phone call
it works to me (VoLTE)
We need a MBN file from another vendor that is known to each if our users country if I am right?

In many parts of Europe, HD calling works without VoLTE but in most parts of the world, HD Calling goes hand-in-hand with VoLTE i.e the HD icon in Dialer represents if the call went through 4G or 3/2G.
In those countries, no VoLTE = no HD calling = no calls over 4G = potential inability to use data while on a call.
The Magisk module like most others just enables the props i.e. It exposes the switches and will work only if the carrier configs are on the device. Without the right configs, the module is a placeholder.

As it does on mine, but not sure that's relevant. The line surely relates to VOLTE, rather than LTE. As EE haven't enabled VOLTE for handsets they haven't sold themselves, I can't check whether it's working OK.
No volte
No VolTe for me. I can confirm.

VOLTE is not LTE
It's a voice function which run over LTE networks, with VOLTE you can have simultaneous call and data activity. Your download wont cut off when the call coming in
also better voice transfer bandwith for clearer voice,
and ability to swap to video call directly from dialer, if your carrier support it

I have a feeling that this will fix RJio's frequent "No Service" issue. I changed it to the correct spelling, it is good till now (4 hours).
Lets see if this fixes the issue.
So is it possible to enable wifi calling and/or VoLte on stock 8.1 rooted or any firmware of the pixel without being on Verizon? I am on AT&T so just wondering if there is a mod or something I can do to enable it.
Magisk has a module that can do that; VoEnabler .... this module will enable access to the features in the pixel, in Dialer, settings, etc. * but that doesn't mean you can actually use them;
First, check that your carrier/service actually supports the feature .... You can check with a secret code though; in Dialer;
*#*#4636#*#*
Then navigate to "Phone Information"... from there scroll down;
you should see the stuff for VOLTE, Wifi Calling, Video Calling, etc. If it's enabled then you may be good to go..
but if your carrier doesn't support it - enabling it via VoEnabler will do nothing to change that.
Also, I don't know about the US, but in Canada - some carriers (under some plans) do charge extra for this stuff.

Sort of this. Basically AT&T will not support VoLTE or WiFi calling on any unbranded unlocked devices brought onto their network. Never worked on my T-Mobile Note 4 nor my Google purchased Pixel XL. I was a long time subscriber to their service but once my dependency on MMS messaging increased I had no choice but to switch to another carrier. I wound up on Verizon after a brief time with T-Mobile. Both support full functionality of these devices.

Before installing magisk I dialed that number and they were all greyed out, I installed magisk installed the module and now VoLte and Wifi calling are both enabled in that menu and in the settings menu. I tested wifi calling and it worked. So maybe just need the module installed and it will work. That's what worked for me.

Cool. glad to hear my advice helped... but also using the secret code in the Dialer would've verified if your carrier supports it on their network, beforehand; that's why I posted in that step...
also, just as a reminder; I'd make sure that there aren't any hidden fees associated with using those features, I don't know much about US carriers; aside from that they are (generally) against Net Neutrality.... But I know with my particular carrier, in Canada; If i wasn't using the plan that I am on; they would be charging me extra - and it would add up quick... so best to double check, maybe.

I have no idea: I live in Canada and have never dealt with US carriers ~ that's something that you will need to verify on your own. Some may allow it; some may not... you guys do things quite a bit different south of the border, so I just don't know....
You should be able to find that out in the support/QA area of your Carrier's website ~ if not there, you can ask them directly.
but yeah, obviously, if it was working on your S7 - then your network supports it....
Hello, I am on Vodafone UK, recently my area is getting poor 4G coverage so the vodafone tech guy asked me to shift on wifi calling inside the house. He enabled it from carrier perpective but I have to enable it on handset as well. I struggled to find the option. Now using the secret code above I can see I have wifi calling option greyed out. btw, I am on stock android 8.1. What is the best and least intrusive way to get the wifi calling working on my handset.
I am not a developer but have experience with root on previous devices. If I have to install Magisk( is there a non-root option?) what module etc I need to install to get this working please..

Flash magisk and get the module called VoEnabler just sear h VoLte in the search bar it should pop up then after it installs restart phone and you should have the options.
Hi Praveenjohri - did you get this to work?
I too have a Pixel XL and on Vodafone UK; again the wifi calling option is greyed out.
Any layman guides as to how to Flash magisk and go about enabling this? Thanks in advance
Ok so I'm very disappointed that the WiFi Calling function (VoWifi) has been disabled in this phone, along with Volte, take a look in your phone information by dialing *#*#4636#*#* and you will see that they're both there but disabled. You can enable Volte by dialing *#*#86583#*#* and you will see an enhanced 4g LTE Mode option appear in network settings and get HD (calling) in the status bar when on 4g, depending on your network.
BUT, there seems no way to enable WiFi calling? There is a Magisk module available called voenabler which I have installed, it has enabled the wifi calling menu, but when I make a call with no mobile network I get the message "Mobile network not available. Connect to a wireless network to make a call" as opposed to the usual "Mobile network no available" So it seems that it's trying, but not seeing my network?
I know it can provider dependant, I get HD calling and IMS registration, just seems like an odd error msg, can anyone shed any light on this please?
From my research it seems that this could be an AndroidOne license thing, my Brother has bought a P20 lite and it works out of the box, are Google saving the functions for it's flagship Pixels or network contract phones? Wouldn't surprise me, maybe Pie will switch it on....... Doubt it.
I'm surprised that there is not more activity on this thread.
WiFi calling is very convenient in poor signal areas but as you say it seems to be disabled on this phone.
I'm now using A2 lite as my daily phone, VOLTE working great but lack of WiFi calling a real disappointment.
Just for mental support, I'm also very disappointed that this feature is missing. I really need this feature in my well isolated home. I have to go outdoors to make phone calls.....
Under debug (*#*#INFO#*#*) it's indeed still locked. Disabled carrier check for VOLte as you said with *#*#86583#*#* though.
Yes I've all but given up... I've had the phone months but not used it.
I'll keep it until the pie update, a comment on the pie thread said that it enabled volte with a working ims, I asked but no one confirmed wether or not vowifi was enabled or switchable in the info settings.
Trouble is there is no information about vowifi in any other android one phone? If I knew it was available I'd buy a Nokia 6.1 plus for example.
Reset phone back to factory, installed Pie ota, both volte and vowifi are disabled as in Oreo. Real shame as this A2 is a cracking phone for the price, but I'll have to find something else. Preferably AndroidOne with WiFi calling!
VoLTE & WiFI Calling not working for T-Mobile USA. Even 2G/3G calling is spotty at best. If you want to use the Mi A2 Lite for calling on T-Mobile in USA, good luck. 4G LTE, data, MMS/SMS are flawless, however calling is really bad.
Wifi calling is working fine, if you're supported the toggles show up in google phone.
I used magisk module voenable although I don't think it did anything, could be wrong but wifi calling and volte working great
Thanks Boe!
I see you're in the Uk, what network are you on? Contract / sim only? I've tried most in my A2 Lite and none worked but they were just payg sims. I haven't tried the voenabler again after installing Pie.
Both networks are contract ,Vodafone uk and EE UK, they both have wifi 4g calling enabled in there provider account , plus didn't work untill I dialed that number , flashed magisk also with module voenable. I didn't check for wifi option in Google phone before magisk so don't know if it helped or not. Reading in xiomi forum, it's disabled for certain countries including UK even though it's a global use phone, which is rediculous.Have a look in your provider account if you have one, or create an account so you have access to sim provider config.
Latest beta v27 Google phone if that helps.
Cheers. I'm on BT uk and have vowifi enabled as I've put my sim in an iphone and it went on wifi calling. My brother has ee, I'll try his card.
They seem to have done something new for Pie as previously only one sim could get 4g? Looks like I'll have to re-install magisk and try voenable again, was it simple in pie with the different bootimage?

Same process but with 10.20 patched boot in pie dump thread, i still made my own though, seems logical to use your own patched boot. Although check to make sure its the right size as first time i did it, the patch had zero bytes. Wifi calling enables on both sims and hd calling, i assume its just a bug, sometimes it works as expected and sometimes it enables everything on both sims lol, battery goes quick. Wish i could get nfc on it but theres no chip so thats a no go. As long as you dont mess with the system partition outside of magisk ota's will be more simple to sort out, keep stock boot as back up on pc and phone. Busy box is one file in sbin folder if you install it.

I can confirm that Wifi Calling works on Orange Poland after installing VoEnabler module in Magisk:
Cheers Guys!
Reinstalled Magisk and Voenabler after removing it to upgrade to Pie, and have Wifi calling on BT uk! Tested and working.
Definitely something to do with Pie as would not work in Oreo (or without voenable in Pie)
Glad you sorted it bro, it's nice to have functions working.
Yes it is, you're right it is ridiculous that it's disabled and I still suspect it's androidone licensing or network pressure limiting the functions.
And it shows what a load of BS and miss-information there is around wifi calling, I called BT and asked saying I wanted to buy a new phone with it, the first guy who seemed quite bright said it should work if the phone's not on their official list as long as the phone supports it (he seemed a little reluctant, like he shouldn't be telling me) The second call when I asked if they could check I was sim enabled I was told by a lady that it definitely would not work unless I bought a phone from their list - Xiaomi? Who are they?
And according to my BT app I still don't have either volte or vowifi.....
I'm well pleased, I have no / borderline network signal from any provider in or around my home so now I have a working phone!
Guys any idea if the Pie update on A2 made possible the Vowifi? I tried on mine but only Volte seems to work. Cosmote Greece.

I ve done all of them but nothing for me... Do you find the wifi calling option in your settings?
Has anyone figured out how to get WiFi calling working on Cricket wireless on the One Plus 5T. I have it enable, but doesn't seem to be working. I'm sure there has been a work around for this ?? Sometimes cell service in the house is spotty and this would really help missing calls. Any suggestions or work around, please advise.
have you tried installing voenabler module through magisk. That is if your rooted of course Iff it still wont work then your provider may not support it yet.

I myself experienced the exact same situation a few years ago the provider I was with had the same policy and after many arguments with there call centre I decided to switch provider to where they didn't restrict the phones functions. Usually in such a situation you need there own bloated firmware to recieve volte/wifi calling. There isn't much of a way out of this in my opinion unless you change provider but I could be wrong. I think they do this so customers buy phones from them exclusively and it's a sly marketing thing. Sorry I couldn't help. It is possible however that by rooting and then installing the module I suggested you could get round this but there's no guarantee. That's if your prepared to root.
Maybe you've tried this already but I found the following.

Yes I had already done this and enable it, but it still didn't work, I have it enabled but does not show up on the status bar. I'll keep researching, thanks though.
I had enabled from this link which is pretty much the same way, ( https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2018/08/enabling-voice-over-wifi-on-the-oneplus-5t-and-three-uk/ )
Good luck. Last resort might be changing provider. That's what I had to do.

Thanks. It's not a big deal, missing calls doesn't happen often, would simply of been nice to be able to have the WiFi calling when able. No Biggie.
I read somewhere about flashing VoEnabler module via magisk ??, does this require root, or can it be flashed without rooting ??

Sunder, I've done the below before a while back, and it still doesn't work, I have Cricket wireless, so maybe that is why. I have enabled all, but in the status bar the icon for WiFi calling is not showing when WiFi calling is turned on, so I assume it's not connected.

Which network service provider you are currently using means which sim is used in your phone.
Yes, I am very aware of that, and it doesn't work, I've tried it many times, Voltle or WiFi calling icon never comes on in status bar when enabled.

Bro, I think wifi calling is not working in your region Because of the network service provider not staring wifi calling(VoWiFi) technology in your region.
And it may be oneplus 5T is not support your network wifi calling.
In my India, this technique is working and i am using it perfectly with jio and airtel.
That was my point a few post above, where I mentioned it does not work with Cricket wireless, and Cricket does offer VoWiFi, but it woks only with the phones you buy from them. So I was letting people know it doesn't work with Cricket.

Hello everyone,
on my companies area I have a really bad phone signal (LTE). How ever, I am constantly connected to my companies WIFI.
I now wonder if being connected to the WIFI will reduce battery drain due to low LTE signal?
I was hoping that the phone then only needs to search for better reception if the signal for phone calls (bot not internet) goes completely off?
Another solution would be to use Tasker to switch to my company SIM with full signal strenght (I am using dual SIM) for data/internet when on my companies area.
In any case, my private SIM will still always have bad signal but will be active for phone calls. However, my data reception will be very good (while I am still also connected to WIFI).
Just looking for the best solution in terms of battery drain.
Thanks!
VoWifi is a boon for low cellular coverage area usage while saving battery life on WIFI and still being available for phone calls. Ask your provider for specifics
Ahh thanks for that hint!
So if I enable Voice over WIFI, then my phone will stop searching for better radio signal if the WIFI signal is good enough?
Yes, in fact you can enable Airplane Mode which switches off all radios, turn on wifi radio manually to enjoy great battery life and VoWifi calls.

Hmm except that I can't seem to find the option on Android 12 to enable wifi calling :S :S
Even without VoWifi you can save battery life by manually switching to 3G or even 2G for calls while using high speed data on wifi
Your carrier must support VoWifi to be seen as an option on your device.
Here is a list of US carriers that use the newer advanced Vo technologies:
T-Mobile
– VoLTE: Yes
– VoWiFi: Yes
AT&T
– VoLTE: Yes
– VoWiFi: No
Verizon
– VoLTE: Yes
– VoWiFi: No
Sprint
– VoLTE: Yes
– VoWiFi: Yes
I am from Europe so I use a different carrier. That carrier has VoLTE and VoWiFi enabled.
How ever, it seems like the carrier also has to approve each specific devices to be allowed to use VoWiFi.
As the P6P is not being officially sold in my country, I suspect that my carrier doesn't have my device on their whitelist :/
VoLTE/VoWiFi Activation
It is mandatory to have your Pixel rooted with Magisk to install this module. Make sure that Magisk is installed properly on your system, then proceed with these steps:
Install this module (Zip file) on Magisk and reboot the system.
After rebooting, the phone may be showing "No service" due to the parsing of new configurations, so please wait until the operator name showed up.
Go to Settings -> Network and Internet -> Mobile network and enable "Enhanced 4G LTE Mode" and "Wi-Fi calling".
Turn off Wi-Fi
Go to Phone -> dial *#*#4636#*#* -> Phone information tap at the top-right button, select "IMS Service Status".
Check if IMS Registration is Registered and Voice over LTE is Available then, congrats, you're succeeded.
(Voice over Wi-Fi will be activated upon the "Wi-Fi calling" option in 2.)

Thank you very much. I will probably root soon and will give it a try then. Although there is an github issue open which says that the module is not support by the Pixel 5.
Just a bit annoying that I would have to apply this after every OTA but I guess it's doable
I also talked to my carrier today. They are saying that only phones that are being sold by the carrier support VoWiFi as the phones OS needs special settings that are being provided by the carrier. That is why usually the Android updates from phones bought through our carriers come later than the official google updates (due to the carrier updating the OS himself first).
On the other hand it seems like google could integrate those "special" settings right out of the box.
How ever, google seems to say the carrier has to get in touch with them and start the procedure whole the carrier says that is google who has to take care of it by them self.
Since the phone signal for my SIM is really bad on my companies area but the WIFI is very good, this should then hopefully help a lot with battery drain.
