I turned on enhanced LTE in cellular networks to turn on VoLTE but I keep getting a notification for it. Is there something else I need to do? It seems to only pop up when I'm on Wi-Fi. Pic attached

As for as I know the Oneplus 3 does NOT support VoLTE. However, it's interesting to see this notification. Does anyone know more about that?

Just that there's an enhanced LTE option in the settings menu and it pops up when I turn it on.

Well, just did a very quick research and it turns out the it does support VoLTE on T-Mobile, but I guess that statement is for the US only.
Is there any way to find out if that is also valid for the German T-Mobile and/or other networks, since we use other bands too? (I don't have the phone yet).

I'm on T-Mobile USA. It just keeps popping up when I'm on Wi-Fi which is kind of annoying. Guess I can just block the notification.

You are wrong. It supports VoLTE globally. I am using it in India.
I had those information from some reviews that stated it couldn't. Apperently the providers have to unlock each specific phone type to use VoLTE. T-mobile germany didn't so it yet and have currently no plans to do it for oneplus 3 nor even nexus.

I had to "enable" VoLTE on my MotoX PE (on T-Mobile USA) and I am wondering if you need to do the same... Not sure if this will work on a OnePlus 3 but try this sequence from the phone dial pad: *#*#4636#*#*
this will either do nothing, or enable a hidden (testing) menu (I am not sure if this is baked into Android or device-specific, but you will see). If you get the "testing" menu, go into "Phone Info" and scroll down to "Turn On VoLTE Provisioning Flag" and tap once (if it says "Turn OFF..." try toggling off then back on).
I am considering the OnePlus 3 (on T-Mobile in US) and would like to hear your feedback. On a side note, do you know if Wifi-Calling works for you? Try enabling "Airplane Mode" and then turning on Wifi and making a call... Also, I have heard you should have "WiFi-Calling" in your Settings if it is supported? Thanks in advance for your response!

Couldn't toggle the option in the testing menu. It would still say turn off no matter how much I pressed it. And no Wi-Fi calling.

If it defaults to read "Turn Off" then it is turned on (enabled in software)... That's too bad about Wifi-Calling... That's a feature every new device should be able to support...

Yes, I have been using it on JIO from Day 1. Ofcourse, you have to set the other Sim to 2G or 3G mode and use JIO sim for Data in Settings. Works alright after that.

You have to change your APN to T-Mobile IPV6 and it will go away. I'm on T-Mobile and I am getting volte.

Hello everyone,
I bought a Unlocked Note 4 from Verizon in USA. In Argentina I don't have signal. We use GSM so it should work right. I know this device has not root access. I just want to make some calls or messages.
It doesn't let me search network manually. It throws an error "error searching networks"
Android Version: 4.4.4
Network Mode: Global/GSM
Somebody could help me on this.
Thanks in advance.

I am in Europe past month, leaving to us in few days and was using my note4 in GSM mode all the time and switching between carriers on a prepaid sim. I would do factory reset or maybe get a new sim.
My prepaid sim allows roaming on all carriers.

Which carrier are you using this on? Verizon has always used CDMA for 3G, not GSM. The Verizon Note 4 (SM-N910V) does seem to have limited GSM support, but it might not work on every GSM carrier.
This website seems to be pretty accurate: http://www.willmyphonework.net/
Acording to that page my phone should work perfectly
with 2G, 3G, 4G LTE.
I'm using:
Brand: Samsung
Model: SM-N910V
Country:Argentina
Carrier:Claro Argentina
I don't know what is the problem.:crying:
You may need to add new APN settings before it will work.
On mine, the option to add a new APN is disabled, but I'm actually using mine on Verizon with a Verizon SIM card, so I'd have no reason to edit the APN settings manually. Are you able to edit yours?
I already set the APN and nothing happens. I'm not sure APN could be the problem. Should be something else.

If the APN settings aren't correct, it could absolutely be the problem. It's worth double checking.

I have an Oneplus One with the same APN and works perfectly. That's why I think the APNs are not causing the problems of signal. I still having no signal. I cant make neither a call nor send a message.

Hmm sorry bro not sure what is going on.. last thing I could suggest if you have some money to spare try any other sim card from different provider or ask a friend to swap it for a minute or two,anything to test that it's not your carrier somehow not wanting to work with VZW N4.

Hey I read something couple days ago and forgot to get back at you.. I read somewhere if you block activation agent it should work some people on T-Mobile USA had the same issue. Use debloater to block activation agent on boot. They said this could be because the note could never been activated on Verizon even for 30 seconds and this is why it might be happening.
So block activation agent,and setup wizard so it's blocked on EACH BOOT.
Let me know

Have u tried inserting dummy verizon sim?
I do not have any dummy sim from Verison.
Ive had my pixel xl for about 10 days. I noticed yesterday that I'm dropping to Hspa or 3g when I make a phone call every time. I want to say that I had no problems prior but I honestly don't know. Anyone else on Tmo have any issues? Orlando FL here
Enable enhanced 4g lte mode on cellular network settings volte works for me.
Should come on by default when it detects the TMO SIM. Check your cellular settings and apn info to make sure it's current.
Shoot mine is doing this as well. What build are you using? I'm using the "P" build on a Verizon variant. I'm in ft Myers, FL.

Using P version as well on Verizon variant works well T-Mobile NYC.
Must be something going on in FL with the network. I'm on the L build with a Google store variant. I have enhanced 4g toggled.
I called T-Mobile and the tech I was transferred to (not the rep) told me that it shouldn't stay on LTE that the phone was acting fine. I just said ok and hung up. What a schmuck.
So I then decided to use the built in support feature and requested a phone call. The Google rep said to give it a day or two. Might be a network issue. If it persists then to call back.

What APN do you use? I was using the default one but I was having MMS issues so I decided to switch to the one the T-Mobile suggests on their website. All seems to be working well now. I'm confused by the default one since it has three entries. One is for IMS and the other for MMS, I have no clue what IMS is.
What ever it defaults to.

VoLTE appeared for me after a reboot. WiFi calling has always been working. I will test later to see if a VoLTE call is using EVS. BTW, I'm running the Dec build.

VoLTE has been consistent since my reboot. I have been traveling so it is working in different places. One disappointment: The CODEC is AMR 12K rather than EVS, as confirmed by the lack of "HD" logo during the call.

The EVS claim to fame is that it is enabled whether the other side supports it or not. On a T-Mobile branded phone (or a phone running native T-Mo ROM), so long as VoLTE is available, every call will show the HD logo and the CODEC is EVS.
I was having a similar problem with VoLTE not working. I reset the network settings on the phone and then toggled the advanced calling off and back on and it has been working fine since then.

Hi it does support VoLTE and it is enabled but it also depends of your network provider where and which areas has it enabled .. there is now 4G+ so then VoLTE will be enabled automatically but it applies only for global version or EU version it might work on AL00 so on all new phones it is automatically enabled you don't need switch
On mine Note10 it says supported but in china only don't know I didn't try yet ..
Don't confuse guys WiFi calling as dat is only network provider supporting it.. of course u have wifi so wifi calling will be working unless u have provider who has it enabled ..

Hi. Thanks for general information. I found it useful. In regards to VoIP. Was just asking what folks experience was with it. The network provider may not have wifi calling but app using VoIP can in some cases be good substitute.

Can you kindly provide screenshots of you on a call while still in 4G LTE please? THIS would be the ultimate proof of VoLTE working on T-Mobile.
Thanks!
The Huawei Mate 20 X has the bands for VoLTE !
I have the Huawei Mate 20 X EVR-L29 global c636 & I have LTE High Speed Mode option but I can't find option to turn VoLTE on, perhaps it does need to be turned on, maybe the option just comes turned on.
As far as WiFi calling goes from what I have gathered on other threads on XDA, that option is is something that carriers usually add.
The Mate 20 line supports the bands needed for both VoLTE & WiFi Calling, the M20 & M20Pro & M20X all have the bands required for both options.

Do you have a LTE smartwatch?
If so do you have it connected to TeamMobile network?
If so does TeamMobile have a similar technology to AT&T's numbersync?
If so have you got your watch & phone to sync on TeamMobile network?
I have the M20X & LG Watch Sport, I currently have AT&T unlimited prepaid plan for my phone & the lowest prepaid plan for my watch, I want to switch to AT&T post paid account & sync my phone & watch with AT&T's numbersync.
AT&T & places say that the phone has to be an AT&T device for the technology to work.
However the M20 & M20Pro & M20X all support band 3 & band 40, those bands are required for VoLTE, VoLTE is required for AT&T numbersync to work.
I have found a few threads on XDA where people have gotten none AT&T phones working with numbersync.
I'm posting links to the threads below.

So far I have tried...
T-Mobile US - VoLTE OK, but no Wifi Calling
AT&T US - No VoLTE, no Wifi calling
Docomo Japan - VoLTE OK. Wifi calling doesn't exit.
Softbank Japan - VoLTE OK. Wifi calling doesn't exit.
Interestingly, the Mate 20 Pro doesn't support VoLTE on T-Mobile US, but the 20 X does.
The phones have a whitelist of MNC/MCC to enable VoLTE/VoWifi options for. So unless your carrier is on that whitelist, you won't see the VoLTE option.

How are you testing the phone to know if VoLTE is working or not ?
How can VoLTE work on one GSM carrier like TeamMobile & not on another GSM carrier like AT&T ?
Has anyone had this working yet, does it even have an icon to show its on because my network provided said the Pixel 6 has no option in the menu, does it even show on the phone if its working/on?
VoLTE is working fine with EE in the UK. There are no signs it is working from what I can see, except for the fact it stays on 4G rather than drop to 3G. I've had HD calls (shows the tiny HD icon when the call connects) on 4G as well.
You can check using the phone service menu (*#*#4636#*#* or a version of the same... I always have to check!).
Mine shows volte provision as on (EE UK)
Mine is greyed out

It depends on your carrier.
Some offer the ability to activate it on your own (call a number, send an SMS), some activate it automatically, some won't even give you the ability to deactivate it/activate it yourself.
It needs to be activated and attached into the carriers system as an information that it's activated for your contract.
Are you sure that VoLTE is activated properly?
I have no problems with activating it on my phone.

I've been in touch with them today and Volte is active on their side but I've got no option
Same problem here ... Youfone network in Belgium ...
VoLTE works fine when I put the SIM card in my OnePlus 8 phone.
VoLTE does not work on the P6P if I insert the SIM card there.
I chatted to a Google support guy, he said it definitely is the provider whi must change something ... they claim the P6P supports VoLTE properly ...
But that is strange to me ... why would the SIM card have VoLTE in OnePlus phone and not in P6P? Could the provider really fix that? I doubt it ... but I am not a VoLTE specialist. I will contact provider anyway to see what they have to say.
Hmm ... I checked my provider's website ... they (explicitly) say that VoLTE is availabe for the following phone brands: Apple, Huwai, LG, OnePlus, Samsung, Sony, Nokia, Oppo. So maybe indeed the provider has to "activate" it for specific models/phones ...
I'm told after checking settings that Volte is switched on in fact it can't be turned off due to the carrier config file, greyed out on 'yes' however no Volte working.
The phone supports all the bands so this has to be an issue with the phone itself

No option for Volte and carrier confirms this, Google has hidden it for some reason
Hmm ... see attach. Same issue here. VoLTE works on my OnePlus, does not work on P6P. Chatted with Google support (see attach); they claim it is the provider who has to activate it for the P6P model (which I find strange). I will check with my provider (but I'm pretty sure they will bounce me back to Google). Ping pong.
So I hate volte because if my phone signal is weak and it decides to call over data the call gets all distorted and robot like if you know what I mean!! So I always turn this feature off, normally! Been a Samsung user for years and always had a setting to turn volte off via the SIM/network menu, well as it seems I've had a few of the distorted calls and gone to turn of volte but not a setting in sight and I think I may have figured it out. Seeing this post triggered me look into it deeper and after using that phone code above to establish that the carrier volte setting is switched on but greyed out, as somebody posted above made me switch my SIM to My S20 and check the volte and I can confirm that although the mobile provider has it switched on permanently for active Sims the phone has the hardware to switch it off.
If you look at the screenshot from my Pixel 6 Pro and read what toggling the WiFi Calling switch does, it actually states "When Wi-Fi calling is on, your phone can route calls via Wi-Fi networks OR YOUR MOBILE'S NETWORK"
What I take from that is the toggle on/off is for both WiFi Calling and volte at the same time and we can't have them as independent switches like on my S20 and probably other phones. It makes sense as to why none of us can turn it off, which is cr*p. Especially when my mobile signal is dodgy in my house so I relay on WiFi Calling and sometimes as I have 2 AP's I could have low WiFi signal so it decides to use volte but my mobile signal is also weak thus making my robot distorted calls to happen. I'll be sending feedback via about/send feedback to Google and just hope somebody picks up on it.
Do you agree?
Unless I'm missing something then appolgies for waisting your time.
If you do agree please could you send feed back to Google via "settings/about phone/send feedback about his device" as the more reports they get we have a better chance of the toggles being separated.

I don't even have a setting 'Wifi calling' ... so I guess this is present in your case exactly because VoLTE is enabled.

Have you opened settings and searched for wi-fi calling?? See screen shot. I'm guessing you have and if it's not there then possibly your network provider doesn't support either... Is your phone on the latest firmware?

I do not have a setting when I search for "Wifi call". My phone is on the latest (November) firmware.

That's strange and does your mobile network support both WiFi Calling and VoLTE services? If so then all I could possibly suggest is maybe a factory reset, making sure all your data is backed up first of course. It's a bit drastic I know but sometimes it does fix issues especially if the update missed some steps out when it was applied.

Well, VoLTE for sure, when I put the SIM card in my OnePlus phone I have VoLTE (not wifi calling; that may be the reason why I don't see the entry in settings).

Quite possibly, like you can't have one without the other... If I'm correct that they have a joint on/off switch I really hope Google fix it. Hope you manage to get something sorted.
This is a carrier setting first and foremost. My phone came with it enabled on EE here in the UK, but not explicitly. I have Wifi Calling enabled on my phone as well, and I believe that works for wideband voice calls.
I've tried both VoLTE (unmarked in status bar, just as "HD" in call log) and VoWifi, both seem to work with my P6P.
Update: I've had one call where its shown as HD (Volte) on my call log even though the areas I go are all covered by Volte so I'm going to guess this is down to the rather poor modem on this handset which shows weak signal strength compared to my last handout (Oneplus 8 Pro)
Not sure if it has been addressed, but has anyone here in the states been able to connect to band n41 for 5g on TMobile? Phones says it is 5g ready on TMobile but all I get is 4g+. Which btw is getting me 100+ dl speeds on average, but just wanted to know if there is something I'm missing to get 5g. In preferred network settings,all I can choose is 4g/ LTE or 3g/2g. No 5g option. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Which model of the phone do you have? I have the Chinese variant on Metro and 5G works flawlessly. I know they run on T-Mobile towers so they should have the same bands, I'm guessing, or maybe not.

Thanks for the reply. I have the global version. What happened when you first inserted your sim card? Mine said downloading network info or something.

Yes I believe they have the same bands. I cannot get the preferred network to show 5g as an option. What area are you in? I'm in the Philadelphia area.

I had to chat with one of the employees there to give them the new IMEI number so they could switch the phone in my account. When I first put the sim in, it actually told me that the sim card was not accepted since it was a China mainland phone. I almost thought I wasted my money and could not keep the phone. The 5g option was there from the beggining though but I was getting no signal at all. I finally found the network reset option after the employee suggested it and reset the network, restarted the phone and it finally worked. Also voLTE works as well. Up until this phone, I tried a global Mate 40 Pro and MI 11 Ultra and neither of them had that option available. Not sure why.
Also, on this version it doesn't even say the preferred network option. If I go under Mobile Network & Sim 1 that's where it shows 5g and I can toggle it on or off.

What happens if you go to Mobile Network --> SIM 1? This is what it shows on mine. I think the 5g came on automatically for mine. But here is where it shows the 5g toggle. I'm not sure how the settings look on the global one since I think it runs on Funtouch. Mine is on Origin OS. I'm not sure if that plays a part in 5g as well.

Nope. Nothing like that. 5g won't even show up. I think vivo blocked the option. I'm in contact with them. I'll report back when they respond. I'm confused. Phone is awesome otherwise.

Try this: in your phone app dial *#*#4636#*#* and select Phone Info. In that window scroll down to: Set Preferred Network Type and use the drop down arrow to select NR/LTE/GSM/WCDMA

Still nothing. 4g only option. When you first started phone/inserted sim, did you get a notification saying to update carrier provisioning? I did but I think that messed up something...
No message when I inserted my SIM, but then I wouldn't expect any carrier specific updates to provision services on my phone as my carrier hasn't certified and doesn't support Vivo phones. Consequently I don't have VoLTE or Wifi Calling toggles in my SIM settings. I do however have the "enable 5G" toggle (and it works because I do connect to 5G) because that setting is baked into the firmware and is not something pushed by the carrier. I don't expect this would make any difference, but you can enable developer options and toggle on VoNR. That is the new voice over 5G technology that is replacing VoLTE (voice over 4G) with some carriers.
