Considering this device ....... Can anyone tell me if they have been successful at WiFi Calling on AT&T using the pixel XL?
No to WiFi calling on AT&T. No VoLTE either in case you are wondering.

Let me ask this .... Is the setting for WiFi calling there? If it is, will it just not activate?
And if that is the case, has anyone tried calling AT&T with an IMEI change to an att device (from a brother, or cousin or something) that had WiFi calling (like an AT&T S7 Edge or similar)? ..... Then checking to see if it will then activate
I am using an IMEI from an LG V20 from AT&T (had it after the Note 7). No toggle or anything.

I've searched for the answer for this, but found nothing...I apologize in advance if this has already been asked.
I have a Verizon Note 3 with a Tmobile SIM/Service, and would like to use the wifi calling/UMA feature that T-Mobile offers. In my office the network coverage is non-existent for all carriers, but there is wifi access. I can get online fine, but can't send a text or make calls. From what I understand Verizon has this feature blocked (or non-existent), Can I flash a T-Mobile ROM to activate this feature, or if I install a developer ROM, will this feature be available?
Thanks for any input!
your phone does not have the hardware to do WiFi calling. Only a T-Mobile phone will.

I believe tmobile is the only company that has wifi calling....tried to switch to verizon a few months back, and i asked them about the wifi calling if they had it there reply: "we are sorry, but our network is far more reliable then as of tmobile, and hence we dont need wifi calling" lol. so yeah, its not blocked, they just dont have the right hardware in place and even if they do, they wont be anywhere near tmobile...hope that made sense, kinda typing this while falling asleep
Sprint note 3 has wifi calling
Hello, can anyone tell me if there is an option to enable wifi calling on the N930FD. If there is, it should be found in the dialer>3 dot button>settings then scroll to the bottom. Thanks in advance.

Is this for T-Mobile? Were you able to use wifi-calling eventually?
No I was asking for Rogers in Canada. However, since there were no responses I stayed with the N930W8 Canadian model because wifi calling is a must for me due to poor reception in my area.

If it's like the S7 Edge Duos then the sim card that you want to do wifi calling from has to be in sim1. If you put it in the sim2 slot then it won't work. I don't remember why this was as I returned the S7 version in favor of the Note 7 and just getting it unlocked ASAP.
If you have the setting I should think so. Open your dialer app and go to settings, it should be the bottom setting. I know it is with mine here in the UK.
I bought my Pixel XL from Google Store. I'm on the AT&T network. I can not find the option to enable wifi calling anywhere (it's not grayed out - on my phone, it doesn't exist). I've tried the two locations I believe its supposed to be. Under Settings - More - and/or under phone - settings - call.
I'm not using a custom ROM. I do have my bootloader unlocked and the device is rooted.
What's up with that?
In the phone diagnostic menu *#*#4636#*#* , there is a WiFi calling provision toggle, is that switch on? I'm personally on Verizon, so I'm not sure WiFi calling will work on att
I think AT&T does not support Wi-Fi calling on Non Branded phones.

This is correct.
Think it would ever be possible to fake your phone to look like some type of ATT branded phone to get wifi calling working?
I'm not sure on what type of security/authentication methods they use to allow wifi calling to work properly.

I have a new Sprint unlocked Samsung S9 SM-G960U1 and am trying to get the wifi-calling to work with Cricket Wireless. Currently the wifi calling option doesn't even show up. I was wondering if flashing an after market ROM would enable me to access the wifi-calling feature. Cricket supports wifi-calling, but only on Android devices purchased from Cricket (a note I didn't see before I bought the phone). If there is please letr me know which ROM would help me achieve this.
Thanks

Wifi calling and volte do not work on byod there is no roms for this phone. You can root but I can assure you this isnt gonna work either. All you can do is buy a cricket wifi calling enabled device

incorrect. it merely needs to be provisioned by cricket on the back end by someone who isnt the typical moron with a headset. the reason byod devices have trouble is due to the IMEI not being listed in their system and it takes a ticket to be sent to the telephony dept and have it added. They dont like doing it, but they will when pushed. Unlocked A8 and A6 on cricket both had wifi calling and VoLTE after provisioning was complete.
you also have to have the right csc on the phone.

I have a method with imei from a good cricket wifi calling phone. And have it working. But I have to give them another imei once I have it provisioned. Once their system updates with my imei I lose my wifi calling. But after provisioning I give them my actual cricket devices imei and tell them the system is still showing my byod imei they need to change it back to the other device. It works. But imei in their system is wrong.
Not imei switching or anything like that. I physically own a stylo 5 from cricket I dont use. So they think I'm on that and not my g9650. So I know it's possible just a real pain
