Question Honor Magic Ultimate VoLTE support in USA - Honor Magic 4 Ultimate

I am planning to buy Honor 4 Ultimate here in the USA. Can anyone please confirm if there is any possibility to get VoLTE on any carrier? Both at&t and T-Mobile not supporting VoLTE for Honor Chinese version. I have heard Google FI supports VoLTE if anyone can please confirm before I buy.

I have the Honor 4 Ultimate here in the US on T-Mobile, I believe my VOLTE is working as I can make calls without issue.

And to use Google Fi the device has to support Google Play Services which this does not.

Thanks a lot for letting me know. I just returned honor Magic 3 pro plus as it kept switching to 2G connection for calls. I really love the phone. I will go ahead and order it... Thanks

Oh that's a new thing I learnt. Got it

If you get a chance, please do check once if you are seeing the VoLTE toggle bar in your mobile settings. I would sincerely appreciate if you can just confirm that. Thanks

You're welcome, sometimes I do switch to 2G but it doesn't seem to be too long I always switch back to 4G eventually sometimes 5G and I'm stll able to complete calls on the T-Mobile network. Me it doesn't really bother me much since I make minimal phone calls.

Great. Yes so this 2G calls might completely end by December 2022 when T-Mobile shuts down 2G. However after reading countless posts and thread...someone mentioned the best way to avoid this VoLTE drama by both at&t and T-Mobile.. you can start using services like Google voice and port your number...I actually tried this and I now don't care if TMobile doesn't allow VoLTE even after December 2022... But thanks for checking everything...1 more thing if you can check... If you can enable developer mode and see if you get an option for VoNR... That is the new standard after VoLTE and if that is supported on Ultimate that should help too... In any case I am going to finally place my order tomorrow after trying Google voice since even after 2G shutdown mobile data will continue...

So I was able to run a test, I recommend downloading Aurora app store and downloading the Google Dialer app and using that as your default calling app. As when I ran test calls to VM/ someone I know I get HD on the call so VOLTE is 100 percent for sure working then.

That is genius. I got my ultimate delivered today from Hong Kong. I was able to use Truecaller and Viber are essentially VOIP apps and need mobile internet or WiFi. But your solution is genius. I managed to install Google dialer and all calls go through without any internet connection and signal doesn't drop to 2G. I also got HD. thanks for finding a great solution. Let's hope Google dialer continues to work without Google services

So I'm on AT&T and my service was working perfectly fine with them until I took the latest firmware released today. Not sure if the update messed with anything but my Google Dialer and regular Dialer both do not make calls via AT&T, my T-Mobile sim still works

Hey thanks...I sold ultimate within 2 weeks as more and more apps were breaking without Google services and using Gspace was slow and frustrating...I moved to OPPO find x5 pro global version which had VoLTE on TMobile and after android upgrade I lost VoLTE even on OPPO T-Mobile. This is truly frustrating. Looks like they won't allow any Chinese phones in USA.... Only Samsung, OnePlus and Google pixel are welcome...

Is it possible the other person does not have volte? I remember only able to use that when i was calling other T-Mobile users.

Correct! In order for volte to work BOTH phones must be enabled, and in a volte market.
Ditto. Read some papers on how VoLTE works and called up T-Mo to confirm, they said because of how the connections between the phones are established, both phones must have LTE and live in a VoLTE market. VoLTE actually uses a higher quality coded than HSPA+ if I recall so the other person has to have the ability to receive and decode properly.
Before i did factory reset,i could not get volte, but now i have volte( they show hd in contacts) after factory resetting the phone. Two things i hate about this phone are battery life and chrome browser lagging. And now i just found out a new issue is touch screen sensitivity. It is less responsive than my old galaxy s4.
Has this been recently changed? I had an Xperia z3 and any time i was on lte, my calls were routed volte. I'm 100% positive this is the case, my mother has an M8 without volte, my Xperia still used volte when calling her.

It's not new. Are you sure you had VoLTE? The basic requirement of VoLTE requires both users to have support of this.

Positive, it was only "HD" if i called another volte device, but it was always used on my end. Dead give away was that m phone stayed connected to lte while in a call, if i turned off volte in settings it would drop down to hspa while in call. Also, there are areas around me that seem to only have edge and lte, no hspa. In these areas it would drop to edge when making a call with volte disabled, with volte enabled it stayed on lte.

HD voice is when both devices are connected to at least HSPA when you are connected to TMO's network as far as I'm aware. There are some old articles that you may find if you do a google search, since HD voice is still a rather new concept to TMO.

I know, its a little odd, when volte was not enabled it would display the hd icon whenever i called another hd voice enabled phone. However, when i had volte on, it would only display it when calling another volte device. I know my phone was always using volte though because it would stay connected to lte while in a call with it enabled.
So if you're in a Band 12-only area, and VoLTE is literally the only way for you to make a voice call, you can only call other VoLTE-enabled devices? I find that a bit hard to believe.

[VOLTE] Volte not working in Nextbit Robin [7.0]

I'm on Android 7.0 official, no root, no bootloader unlocked. I've Reliance Jio (which btw is LTE only) network. I can use internet fine on LTE but, calls doesn't work. I've enabled LTE enhanced mode. I also checked the apns. To place calls I've to use their 3rd party app which is pretty annoying. Any help?

I go back and forth from India and US so I really need this to work with Jio LTE and VOLTE in India. Its listed on various sites as being compatible. Did you ever figure out why your phone wasn't getting VOLTE?
Not sure why it isn't working for you. When Jio was launched late last year, I use it for a month Nov-dec 2016 and it worked fine. Tried it again in Feb 2017 for a week and it was fine.
Are you using the stock launcher and dialer? The dialer had worked for me without any issue without installing any 3rd party dialer.
jio is woeking fine in robin i have tested it in delhi, nainital etc..
Jio is working on most of the custom roms and flawless on stock rom..

Verizon Advanced/HD Calling on Unlocked S9+

I currently have an Unlocked Galaxy S9+ directly from Samsung running on Verizon's network.
I can't seem to find a way to enable the HD Calling/Video Calling/Advanced Calling features.
Some rumors suspected if you installed the MyVerizon app it would enable the advanced calling menu, but that didn't work.
Is there any way to enable these features?
Is there a command through ADB to enable this?
Would I need root access?
EDIT: Model Number: SM-G965U1 - Snapdragon
No way to get Video and WiFi calling to work (yet), but go to Connections, then Mobile Networks and you can turn VoLTE Calls on or off, which is HD voice. It was there by default on my unlocked S9+ on Verizon. If you don't see it, you may need to add HD calling to your Verizon plan (it's free, but you have to login to the website and add it as a feature).

Ahh, I already have VoLTE enabled. Guess I will have to wait until someone finds a way to enable those other features.

Yeah, I know that they support video calling, along with a ton of other apps, but there is a native video calling option.
They got it working on unlocked S8, using some of the APKs and CSC from the Verizon phone. See below:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...to/how-to-video-wificalling-unlocked-t3615027
Or just by flashing the whole Verizon firmware on the unlocked phone (kinda defeats the purpose of getting the unlocked phone):
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...axy-s8-unlocked-version-wifi-calling-t3699806
So I'm hoping it's just a matter of time, as I also need the WIFI calling to work on my unlocked phone. I think that's what is needed in order to send texts over WIFI via the Verizon Message+ app, which is what I ultimately need when in poor signal areas (sending texts over WIFI, without getting a second number with Google Voice or asking people to install secondary apps like Allo/Duo). Or I could just switch to T-mobile I guess, where all these things work with the unlocked phone without the additional hassle.
Here is to hoping we can get wifi calling and native video calling working on the unlocked s9/s9+ phones for those of us on verizon.
I have the S9+ (G965U1), and I have used the included Wi-Fi Calling app.
Look for Wi-Fi Calling.

I just got my unlocked S9 what do I need to do to get everything working on VZW I mean HD Calling, and video calling etc.? I've never owned Samsung Phones, I've always had unlocked bootloader HTC phones that I could do anything I wanted with. I don't know anything about Samsung accept "Odin". I still havn't put the sim card in cause I was thinking of returning the phone.
Thanks for the hint Dudeman456! I found WiFi Calling under system apps and went to its settings and activated its permissions. Now I can send text messages over WiFi using Verizon Message+ app (and not the included Messages app or Android Messages). I still don't have WiFi calling through the default phone app on S9. I wonder if there is a different phone app that I need for that purpose (Verizon Phone app?).
Same issue as my unlocked Note 8 I got from Sammy. You can enable video calling in the *#*#4636*#*# menu. You will not be able to activate WiFi calling though unless you flash the Verizon firmware. You also will not be able to use any Verizon features such as watching NFL games (but I think that is changing and won't be a Verizon exclusive) and premium visual voicemail. Really is a deal breaker for me.

What in the world does this mean "*#*#4636*#*# menu"????
All,
This is a KNOWN issue with Verizon.
I got my S9+ on Wed 3/14 from pre-order and could not get video calling to work. Went to Verizon store on Sat 3/17 preparing to wage war with them. The Verizon tech stopped me in my tracks and said it's already known. An email sent from corporate to all verizon stores indicating the problem with video calling. It is an issue with Samsung software which they are "diligently" working to correct and will push an update soon.
Notice this.. go to either MyVerizon app or the website and login. then go to devices/manage devices...then go controls then to adjust service blocks and you will see the video calling is blocked and cannot be unblocked. Apparently this is done for "our own good" until Samsung fixes the issue.
No date from the tech on when a fix will be issued.
DONT try anything crazy to enable video calling..just be patient and wait for the fix. My S9+ is unlocked too and i was assured that video calling will be enabled once a fix is issued.

That is odd. I am using my G965U1 on Sprint and my Wi-Fi Calling app is in the regular app drawer with everything else. I did not expect it to work, since it is Sprint, but it did. The Wi-Fi Calling app was available before placing a sim card inside.

I don't think it will unblock. If you didn't buy the VZW branded phone you most likely won't get video calling. I assumed this from the start. I spent a good portion of the day speaking with a VZW 2nd level support engineer supervisor with 20 years experience. He asked is there anything else that could be done besides unblocking video calls to make me happy, because that at this time it is impossible as the phone is not a VZW phone. Look in you phone profile on their website, does a picture of your phone show up? My profile is blank, that means the phone is not in their system of phones, even though I flashed the full VZW package with bloatware and all after first a full reset. My Phone has VZW splash screen and all the advanced calling menus, in about phone it says SM-G960U, but that block cant be removed. Maybe I screwed up somewhere and alerted them by booting with a sim card in? Maybe they flagged my IMEI? I don't know but the rep said point blank they can't unblock video calling on that line, and unlocked phones are not supported.
Are you all seeing LTE+ (carrier aggregation) on your Verizon S9 devices? I'm in Vegas and my device appears to sit on B13 (700mhz) and does not hand off anywhere else.

Three Super-Voice VOLTE

Hello, does anyone know if Three's super-voice will work on a Pixel 3 XL purchased from Google directly rather than from Three? Three list the Pixel 3 as supported for VOLTE but they only do the 64gb models and currently have no plans to offer the 128gb which is what I need.
I am hoping that it is not the Three ROM which enables this feature. Would someone be able to confirm please?
Thank you

These days it's not the ROM on the phone which enables these features it's mainly the network. So if the network allows this feature by putting their sim into the phone will give you the option to select this feature. I'm on EE but got an unlocked version pixel 3 XL as soon as I take the SIM out of the phone the feature disappear from the settings.
Not sure this would help but I got my pixel 3 XL from Vodafone directly and WiFi calling and HD calling is working fine. I don't think any pixel phones have a "branded" firmware so these features are baked in. But either way order it online or over the phone and you can test and if it does not work just return the device back under 14 days rule.
Thank you for the information. I hope it is the same on Three as it is on EE for you. Maybe someone on Three can confirm for me before I commit to my purchase ?

Really, that is so annoying. I was hoping that as the Pixel 3 is on their list of devices which are supposed to work with Super-Voice then it would work like the others mentioned on here without their own Rom. Have you tried contacting them to ask why it isn't working as the device is listed on their website as supported? Have you checked the VOLTE settings or are they missing in the menu?
yeh, you can test any phone to see if wifi calling is available
switch on airplane mode
switch on wifi
if you can still make calls via the dialer then you have wifi calling, if you can't then you don't
if you try this with pixel 3 xl on three it tells you to turn mobile on
Also noticed though when I did make a call at home yesterday while on 4G it showed HD next to the call timer

No sorry I am not referring to using Wifi calling. I know the Three in Touch App will work, what I am referring to is Three's SuperVoice service which allows your phone to make calls using 4G otherwise known as VOLTE.

No WiFi calling does not work with three uk, you must use their outdated app that's not been updated for 2 years.
4G supervoice is different and uses the 4G network and you can tell with the HD symbol that appears you are on their 4G sulervoice.
I have asked three about wifi calling and they reckon they are working with Google to get it working. Tbh it is Three that nerd to sort out their end as it is a common format and configuration.

we know Wi-Fi calling is important, unfortunately the Pixel 3 doesn't support this right now ? we’re working hard with Google to have this sorted asap though so watch this space ? >DD

I have a Pixel 3 XL and have never seen 4G calling work, I always observe the phone dropping the "4G" and moving to "H / H+" next to the signal strength icon when a call is made.
I do live in a 4G area

As far as I'm aware 4G calling (or '4G supervoice' as they like to call it) only works on band 20 with Three. If you're in an area where there are bands of 3G signal available, it will use them. If you're somewhere where there is only 4G on band 20, then it'll work. - This signal travels further and penetrates buildings better - so is there when other signals aren't.
All the other operators seem to allow 4G calling on all bands of frequency now. Three only allows it on band 20.
I assume at some point they'll roll it out to all their 4G signal.
Was hoping January update may enable Three wifi calling but it has not.
Can confirm that volte is working on three and pixel 3xl.
I've just made a call and it stayed on 4G. First time I'm actually taking notice so not sure if this has always happened or just after January update.
Now we need wifi calling. Who do we approach about this?

VoLTE has been working for a good while now - if not since launch?
I was hoping WiFi calling would appear after the update too. All they've said on that is that they're 'working with Google' to get it out as soon as possible.
I don't see why it's so hard for them, it's on the iPhone, the S8, the S9 and all the other big brand phones they sell.
I want WiFi calling, but I'm not as bothered about it as I was about 4G calling- VoLTE gives me a usable signal at home where there was none before.
I've now seen a couple of calls where "HD" appears in thr phone app next to the call timer.
It appears, to me, to only work on other calls to mobiles in the three network.
So I'm not experiencing a true VoLTE experience as I understood it could be.
It's sad when my wife's phone which is a Huawei P20 pro from the Vodafone network (unlocked) supports WiFi calling on 3 network!
Come on Three/Google.

it depend on your sim card carrier
I have been looking for that information, thinking about getting this phone to use T-Mobile USA GSM voLTE? is this phone compatible?
@ryantek No, it's not. I have been using Gt Master in Mint Mobile (which is T-Mobile MVNO) for 6 month and no VoLTE, no VoWifi. I could use mobile data, but even this was not very good, often gets stuck to 3g network, though GT Master supports most of the LTE bands used by T-Mobile (except for B71 600Mhz).
I had two long chats with Mint Mobile customer service, no resolution.
I believe it's gonna be even harder to activate it after July 1st, when T-Mobile will shutdown it's 3G network. Mint Mobile didn't make me any problems to buy and activate service, but now constantly bugs me to replace phone for compatible with their network.
I've also tried it with US Mobile (T-Mobile network), Boost Mobile (ATT) and couple others. The same effect.
Save yourself some trouble and buy phone that's on compatibility list: Oneplus, iPhone, Samsung or Motorola.
I bought Galaxy S22 and now use it as my main device in Google FI. GT Master still have active Mint Mobile simcard until 3rd of June, but after that it will be over.
Hi,
Thank you for sharing all of this information. It is sad to see the carriers in the USA do not support this phone. Sadly I will stay away until anyone can confirm a phone of this brand that works with VoLTE (Tmobile).
Once again Thank you.

Set up VoLTE and VoWiFi via QPST and the ( advaced pdc tool PDC ) Root is required. This option works in stock. You need to try several "choose" profiles, one will definitely go
In custom rom, if it doesn't work, just back up the EFS partition (after editing in stock rom) and restore it later in custom rom
I see. Wondering is there is a signed ROM with VolLTE enable out of the box.
Today I tried Google Fi simcard with my Realme GT Master (normal not modified ROM) and it worked!! VoLTE is working and so is VoWiFI (I think). I'm not 100% sure about VoWifi. I have icon of VoWifi during call but I can't make call just on WiFi while on Airplane Mode, I have to turn off Airplane Mode or it doesn't allow me to make a call.
Google Fi was activated with Galaxy S22 few months ago.
I'm not gonna test it for long, because I use Galaxy S22 as my main device now and in few days I'll move to US Mobile/Verizon, but Google Fi is usable. I still can't recommend buying GT Master for US: too much hassle, too many unknowns.

so basically you don't know which network you were on while VoLTE started to work? Google FI uses all three networks and switches them dynamically
As far as I know Google Fi uses two networks: Tmobile and Us Cellular. As I'm in western Massachusetts and US Cellular doesn't have coverage here, I'm pretty sure I got connected to T-Mobile. But I can't confirm it with 100% certainty.
