I just received this phone yesterday and dropped the sim from my 2014 X into it and it worked perfectly all day. Today, however, the data has periodically dropped until I reset the phone or toggle cellular network. Are there settings I need to modify to optimize? Any ideas welcome.
Thanks!
Preferred network type - global
Enhanced 4G LTE Mode - on

Sorry to derail your thread a bit... I am setting my sister up on this phone coming from a 2013 moto x. Is VOLTE working for you? If so, did you have it provisioned on your moto x 2014 prior? I just set up HD calling for her on her account but internet + call wasnt working right away. However visual voicemail wont set itself up. I may have to have her put the sim card back into the X and setup visual voicemail on line before putting the sim back into the 5X no? Hard for me to troubleshoot her phone being she isnt near me.
I personally have never used VVM, but there is a check box for "Enhanced 4G LTE Mode" that is selected by default that should work as long as it is enabled through VZW on the account. It may require a reboot after turning on if I remember correctly.

Thank you. The issue is that once advanced calling/HD calling is enabled on a verizon eligible phone, regualr voicemail doesnt seem to work? Can you confirm you have Voice over LTE and what is your voicemail solution?
x'm a newbie to NEXUS. The 5X is my first one. But I am 7 year Android user...
You shouldn't need to touch the developer options but it is worth seeing if it makes a difference.
I would experiment with these settings to see if it helps stabilize things.
Settings>Developer Options
Disable "Aggressive Wi-Fi to Cellular hand..."
Disable Always allow "Wi-Fi Roam Scans"
Enable "Cellular data always active"
Those three options, or a combination of them may help. I disabled the last one("Cellular data always active") which is the default. If I need it, I'll select it in the future.
I hope it helps.
Aaah I see, I can't really comment because I have a work account so I can't access the account to enable VoLTE. And I'm using old school "please enter your four digit code" voicemail.

I noticed my Volte provision shows to Turn On - but I have tried several times with no luck and I had it on my other device and usually no problem to turn it on or off on those devices.
If someone doesn't mind can you go into Radio Info. Unless you have a code# to type in, I use the app Hidden Android Settings. Download it and scroll down and go in
Radio Info and it's at bottom and see if yours say
Turn on Volte Provisioned Flag or is it on like it's supposed to be Thanks ahead of time.
HD Voice(VZW term for VOLTE) is on by default on the Verizon Note 7.

Oh ok so the button in hidden settings doesn't matter, whew i'm glad, I was begining to worry that my volte button and device was giving problems. Thanks
easy way to check is just call someone and see if the HD voice text is shown on your dial screen.

It's not
Call someone who also has VoLTE or hd voice. It should show up. If not check under settings, advanced calling features.
Maybe it's turned off on yours.

I called wife, she also has it. No luck on my end. I have it selected in settings.
But to me it would seem like if it's selected then the volte provision should also be On under hidden menu, wouldn't you.
The *#*#4636#*#* doesn't seem to bring up the hidden options menu. I am not sure how you access the hidden menu on this phone.

If your rooted you need to enable hidden menus by editing the file below
/efs/carrier/HiddenMenu
there is only 1 entry - OFF, change this to on.
Even after doing this the code mentioned does nothing.
Hi guys.
Let me elaborate my question.
1. I am totally aware that VoLTE on Android at the moment generally requires the handset to be from the carrier, or from the same region as the carrier for it to have the correct VoLTE (and VoWIFI) settings.
2. I am also totally aware that since Android 6.0, there actually has been a provision to allow carriers to send carrier settings to the user. I also know that this isnt being widely used.
After my ownership of my Pixel XL, I moved to a HTC U11, which I have flashed a custom ROM. This custom ROM managed to have the carrier settings for VoLTE for my carrier baked in.
I am keen on getting a Pixel XL2, so Im keen to see what the Pixel community is doing to enable VoLTE on networks that arent stocking the Pixel or Pixel XL.
Here in Australia, both generations of the pixel seem like they will be Telstra exclusives. and I am not inclined to go on their network!
Thanks for any assistance!
I use it with T-Mobile, only Verizon stocks it in the States. Volte works fine for me. Nothing i needed to do other than to setup the phone with the Sim card in the device.
Same here, got it with my T-Mobile SIM card.
This worked for me. Go to dialer and dial
*#*#4636#*#*
Phone Information
Turn on VoLTE
Turn on Video Calling
Turn on Wi-Fi Calling
Exit
I'm on Oreo 8.1 on my P2 XL, looks like it's already enabled. I'm on AT&T.

Change carrier. AFAIK you'll never get enhanced LTE services using a non-AT&T branded phone on their network. Once I switched my pixel xl to T-Mobile things like that and wifi calling worked fine.
My condolences to your Pixel XL 2. I was in a Verizon store the other day just to check out PXL2. The blue tint when turning the phone horizontally - horrific. Also, barely faster than my Pixel XL, even if you care for that kind of thing (speed.)

If you can get root on your phone, flash magisk and there is a module in there to install that can enable VoLte and Wifi calling, worked for me on AT&T.

Depends if you're on Verizon or straight talk or what. I'm on straight talk and they don't offer VOLTE even though they use Verizon towers.
Using *#*#4636#*#*, the VoLTE provisioned option is greyd out. Anyone has a solution for this?

It means your operator is not offering VoLTE, or, as in my case, Pixel XL is not approved by the operator. I have VoLTE on my SIM enabled and working with operator approved devices but network rejects Pixel as not compatible one.

Operator offers VoLTE and it doesn't filter IMEI like in some cases. Other not approved devices (e.g xiaomi, oneplus) managed to enable volte via shortcuts. I am asking for a similar workaround. --thanks
Of you're on Straight Talk you're SOL. They don't offer it even if you're using a Verizon SIM
If you had geryed provisioning options you need to use magisks voenabler. a did it right now on december pie update. Now I have all enabled. Just waiting for operator to enable volte for my number. I wonder it will active.
Hi, my carrier does support VoLTE but the Pixel is not on its whitelist.
When dialing *#*#4636#*#* and going into phone info, the switches for "VoLTE Provisioned" is off and greyed out, but at the top of this screen I see "Voice Network Type: LTE". Does that mean I am getting VoLTE? I cannot see any other sign or symbol when calling. (I know some devices have a VoLTE symbol either in the status bar or during a call)
Does HD voice or HD video calling on Verizon work with the Google Play Store (unlocked) version of the Pixel 2 XL? I see no settings for it at all like before in the settings, guess I just figured once I popped my Verizon sim card in that it would enable HD voice/video calling, no? Anybody else have any input on this? Do I have to get the VZW version to get HD Voice/Video calling?
EDIT: After I popped in my Verizon sim I rebooted it and let it 'settle' for 10 mins before I touched it again and now I see the "Advanced Calling" toggle in the settings (which was already on) and then I went and tested it by calling my wife and it is indeed HD now and HD logos appear on both of our phones.

Are you on the latest version? I do not see HD voice anywhere on my calls on any calls on people who used to have it. I have full LTE signal and it is activated on my plan. Rebooted countless times but I am still on the version that came out of the box.

Once you enter your Verizon sim, go to the Play Store and allow it to install all the Verizon apps. Also let it do all the app updates. Once all that is completed reboot your device. Then once you are booted back into your phone, go to the connectivity in settings, tap on mobile network, tap on Advanced, and you should see the HD calling options.

Which Verizon apps specifically? I do not see that option, I see "Network & Internet" -> "Mobile Network" -> "Advanced Calling"....
Thanks!
If you don't see it, dial this:
*#*#4636#*#*
Go to the first menu option and then activate it all, near the bottom of the page
Make damn sure you have advanced calling enabled on your Verizon account before you do this. You will not be able to make a call if you don't have it active.

Thank you all, this is what I did to make it work (for anyone else having these issues on prepaid)
I went into features in my account on the Verizon website, disabled and re-enabled HD Voice. Then, I went into *#*#4636#*#* hidden menu and tapped "TRIGGER CARRIER PROVISIONING". When into the Google Play Store and saw "Carrier Services" was disabled. I enabled it and updated it. Waited about 5 mins for provisioning to be done. Rebooted and put in a post-paid Verizon SIM on a corporate account. Removed that SIM, put in my prepaid SIM and rebooted again.
Now it works and I noticed that the Carrier Services APK is disabled again. Strange, but It's working and no need for any Verizon bloatware. I see "HD" on the middle of the screen when on a call with another HD Voice enabled phone. Which I did not see before when calling/testing the same number.
Not sure what really fixed it though, I will update the thread if it stops working. I am also aware that Advanced Calling is needed for HD Voice, technically it does more than just HD Voice. So HD Voice is a part of Advanced Calling features and not "it is HD calling".

This ^^^^^
This is actually how i got VOLTE working. Before i did this i had no data while in voice calls.. Of course this was also after not being able to edit the APN's without playing musical sim cards. What a pain..
But yes, this dialer trick should work.. As soon as i did it, i saw the hd calling features amongst a few other hidden features being enabled/available..
Im on Straight Talk Verizon so as far as the thing about the carrier side being enabled, I dont know, i would assume Straight Talk doesn't offer optional luxuries like that. .. just the ability to use data while in call.
So glad I found this. I have the Pixel XL and I was getting frustrated that HD voice was not working. Google was no help, Verizon was no help either. This should be pinned to the top! Thanks!
Just wondering, i've seen this being an issue, but just wanted to have confirmation here.
Is Wifi Calling and VoLTE "carrier" issue, or google or how does it really work on a Pixel. I know that on samsung and huawei, it's just in the settings and you can enable or disable them. Apparently on the 3XL it should be in > settings> Network and Internet >Mobile networks. But i just don't have it... any ideas how i can get it? my provider (Swisscom) has that option on all other phones, except my 3XL.
Ideas?

So basically need to root and get it done with magisk...okidoki. But there should be another way to make it work. No VoLTE is shame also.
Is there a specific reason it doesn't show by default in the settings? Where does this issue come from? Google or the carrier? Thanks for your input.

Call your carrier and make sure your account is provisioned for those features.
You may also need a new SIM card to enable them.
It may also be that your carrier doesn't support those features on that phone.

Open the phone app, tap the 3 dots in upper right. That's where you should find WiFi calling and video calling.
Settings/network & internet/mobile network/advanced
That's location of VoLTE, or "Advanced Calling"

Indeed, but if I'm not wrong Verizon has dedicated ROMs right? I'm curious to know about the international , unlocked version...wonder if I'm the only one on this boat, or if the magisk trick will make it work. I can't see how my carrier can change the settings , that don't even show up in my settings. If they were grayed out ok, but not even showing I assume it's another issue
So, got off the call with the Swisscom hotline... and they said that VoLTE and WifiCalling (advanced settings) are enabled by default, and then depending of the phone manufacturer to see if it's enabled or not in their settings.
Bottom line, it's on Google's shoulders to enable it.... but on google's page it says this : Wifi Calling
BUT When i go into >phone>settings>calls > call forwarding ... i get a message saying "Call setting error Network or SIM card error" ... which by my logic (maybe i'm wrong) that the phone doesn't recognize my SIM card "well enough", thus not having the advanced settings to enable VoLTE or Wifi Calling.
I called my carrier, asked them to reset my SIM card... and same issue.
So it's to my eyes, 100% a google issue.
should be somewhere in factory settings like the op6 we had to go to #*#*4362 or something like that to enable it

Sim cards can go bad, hence your sim card error. Sometimes, you just need to go to your carrier, show them the error, and make them replace the sim.

As it was previously stated, you may need a new sim. Or at least go to your local store and tell/show them what's going on
