Wifi Calling?

Any way to activate the wifi calling feature for the Sprint S6?
rooted and xposed installed

I've tried on every build so far on my GS6 and haven't been able to get it to turn on, but it sounds like a few people have gotten it to work. I've spoken with Sprint multiple times about it and the only remaining test they want to try is to factory reset the phone...which is funny since the first day I also couldn't enable WiFi calling. They recommended I take it into a Sprint store so someone else can look at it, and probably factory reset it. I just don't want to spend the next 6 hours customizing everything on my phone again. I've also heard that the battery life isn't very good with WiFi calling (maybe incorrectly), so that's been another reason for me to not take the plunge and factory reset.
Sprint did mention, during all those phone calls and chats that WiFi Calling must be enabled on your account/line for it to work, which they say they enabled for me, but it still doesn't work. Maybe that's your hang-up....

Works for me on stock OH1. Took awhile for the red line to disappear from the icon but when it did I made and received several calls using wifi calling.

I am able to use wifi calling fine. I was just in Bosnia, Croatia, and Serbia where I used wifi calling constantly to call and text people in the US. I am on stock OH1. When you enable wifi calling go to the wifi calling options and make sure the wifi access point you are connected to us enabled in the wifi calling. To the point above, yes it does often take 30 seconds to a minute to enable wifi calling on any access point. If it starts to take longer I toggle wifi calling off then on again.

How do you tell the phone that a particular wifi network is able to use wifi calling? Whenever I try to enable wifi calling it sends me straight to "Self Service".

Wanam Xposed module (note module not framework) breaks the ability to access WIFI calling feature. I reported it here in module thread.

I might recommend doing an RTN reset...I know you said you don't want to set everything up all over again. But I had issues when I first got the device. This completely reprovisions everything and in my case fixed WiFi calling not even being an option. I would make sure it shows in your account and then do the RTN reset.

Update disabled WiFi calling in airplane mode

I'm on a rooted pixel 2 XL, on vzw... I just updated to the June security update (from April) and I noticed that it is next to Impossible now to get any calls to go connect as Wi-Fi calling (Even when I have terrible service)
I already have Wi-Fi preferred setting enabled but it's not helping.
I also noticed what I used to do when I was in the basement is put the phone in airplane mode and turn on Wi-Fi and I would get texts calls and be able to make calls under Wi-Fi calling. Now if I try to make a call it says it's not allowed in airplane mode.
Is there a way to get around this???
***EDITED TO ADD RESOLUTION***
A clean flash of the latest update (June at the time of writing) fixed this WiFi calling issue!

The airplane mode plus wifi trick still works fine for me on the June update, both for calls and SMS.
Wifi calling always seems to disable itself after a couple days or weeks and then I have to reenable it, but it's been that way forever.

I have an UNLOCKED Version and Wifi-Calling is set as the default way to place a call from the factory, and when not in Wifi, it doesnt use wifi calling, but then uses LTE... I am able to turn OFF Wifi-Calling, altogether, by going In settings -->Network & Internet--->Mobile Network-->Bottom of page shows Wifi Calling settings.

just to clarify, i do have an unlocked phone (also rooted), but im on VZW network (not a verizon model phone).
All of my settings are correct, it shows wifi calling as being enabled, it shows volte, advanced calling, ect all turned on...
but it NEVER uses WiFi to make a phone call anymore ( previously would show wifi icon in the dialer screen). i also used to be able to force it to use wifi calling by turning on airplane mode and enabling wifi, but now that is blocked very clearly by a dialog warning.

I did this manually in adb, my menu option shows wifi preferred. (Still greyed out though)

I have an unlocked rooted version. I have wifi calling set as preferred. In phone info, all of the toggles are on. However, I cannot make a call in wifi; I turn on airplane mode with wifi on and I get an error message "turn off airplane mode or connect to a wireless network to make a call." I also used the script to set wifi preferred. Have you been able to make a wifi call?

Once you turn on airplane mode the wifi turns off too. You need to turn on wifi after you go airplane mode. It should work.

I did turn wifi on after turning on airplane mode; It shows it is on and I still get the error message when I try to make a call.

Same exact issue I have.
Did you dirty flash the security updates? Not sure if its Magisk 16.4 beta causing a problem? I doubt it because I was running that before the update. Maybe that was it...
I'm going to try toggling the ADB command back to mobile preferred and see if that helps. --> DIDNT WORK.

Thats the reason I started this thread... that USED to work for me.
Now, no more. I get the error message about turning on the cell radio.

I dirty flashed the June factory image using deuces script and I am using Magisk 16.4 beta. It maybe time to clean wipe; that usually solves any problems with this phone.

Shot in the dark here... I was having the same issue and even called Google (Project Fi) about the issue. I accidentally discovered on my own that I had to dial the area code when on Wifi or it would give me the error "Turn off airplane mode to make a call". This was when dialing only 7 digits. When I dial with the area code the call goes through over wifi with no problem. Maybe try dialing with the area code or with 1+area code+number.

Just tried this, didn't work. All my contacts are saved with the +1 and area code already, but just in case I tried a random number. Still got the turn radio on error.

Since it obviously works flawlessly on stock June update don't you think it's time to try that in order to eliminate hardware as the problem? Otherwise you're just spinning your wheels and asking to figure out a unique scenario.

Yep... just don't have time for backing up and restoring everything for a full wipe at the moment.

WiFi calling not working

Does anyone have wifi calling working? I switched about a month ago to Project Fi as AT&T did not allow wifi calling on my 2XL. Where I live cell service is almost non existent, so having wifi calling is a huge plus for me. However, the last few times I have tried to make a call it tells me the call cannot be completed. I have checked the settings and wifi calling is enabled, one thing I don't see (maybe not even on the 2XL) is the little + icon next to the wifi when wifi calling is available. On a previous phone if wifi calling was enabled, that little plus symbol was there to show it as active.
Anyone else having issues? Was not working on P DP4 and also not working on P DP5. Going to contact Fi if I cannot figure it out, but wanted to check here first.
Thanks.

on DP5 now.
I do not use Fi as primary number (AT&T is primary), but Fi is backup.
At times when I re-activate it takes a few minutes for wi-fi calling to work.
I generally turn on airplane mode, then turn on wi-fi, as at home I have strong cell signal so it usually goes over cell, but test wi-fi every so often.
It initially failed (as I just activated, told me to turn off airplane) but after the 2nd attempt it works again as expected.
It has been like that throughout the dev previews for me, though, Im not sure if they are to blame, its been quite awhile since I tried on O, so I dont recall any issue.

Wifi calling works fine on T-Mobile in the states

Found another thread saying that Hangouts needed to be installed for wifi calling to work, sure enough it worked when installing hangouts.
Just uninstalled it again though, set to airplane mode, activate WiFi, calling works. Weird. Will just leave it on airplane mode while home. Wonder if I can set something up in Tasker to enable airplane mode when connected to my home WiFi.

Weird, today tried to make a call and it failed again. Even with airplane mode active and WiFi activated. Installed Hangouts again and the calling works right away, I hate having to have an app installed just to use a basic function but oh well.

interesting. I had previously had hangouts and hangouts dialer installed (yesterday when I replied to you) uninstalled them today, re-activated Fi, turned on airplane mode, turned on wi-fi and call went straight thru.
Not sure what to make of it though, and I know it doesn't help you, just reporting.

Tried to make a call just now, Hangouts installed, did not go through. Disabled cellular data and the call went through fine. Going to play around some more with Hangouts uninstalled, wifi on, cell data off etc. and see if I can get it reliably working.

Anyone know if WiFi calling works on Verizon. I have unlocked Google certain if phone on Verizon service running Resurrection rom.

Yes, I am on Verizon and WiFi Calling works. I have a delay at the start of a call but it switches to WiFi just fine.

How did you get it working? Are you running a custom rom or stock? Do you have the Google version or Verizon version of the phone? Did you get a WiFi activation screen when you first turned on the wifi?

Been using Project Fi for around 10 months now. Switched to it because no cell provider could produce a reliable signal where I work so I needed the WiFi calling and it has worked almost perfectly for me. I would contact Project Fi support if I were you. On DP5 right now.

I am on a Verizon version Pixel 2 XL, so no root and pure stock. I just went to Settings>Network&internet>Mobile network>Advanced>Wi-Fi Calling and enabled it. I think maybe the first time I enabled it, it popped up a Enabling Wi-Fi Calling or something but that was it.

Verizon says it should work but it doesn't. I can go thru the same steps you mentioned but it wont actually connect.I also cant get google voicemail working...it keeps trying to use verizon's voicemail.

Wifi calling quit working again, anyone else have this problem? Fi support don't seem to have any clue, going through various settings that all seem to be making no difference whatsoever. If I try to make a call it just says "Cellular network not available" and the call fails.
Turning on Airplane mode and then Wifi - gives an error of "To make a call turn off airplane mode"
Hangouts, Google Connectivity Services, Carrier Services, and Google Play Services are all installed, enabled and with unrestricted data usage set to enabled.
Configure IMS calling is enabled
Wondering if I should disable and then re-enable the Google Fi carrier to see if that does anything.
Cell signal here is awful, which is why reliable wifi calling is so important.

Worked for a couple weeks, now back to the same old "Cellular network not available"
Bloody maddening.

Pixel 2 XL on Pie, UK network EE. Never had an issue with it, works flawlessly. I don't have to do anything like aeroplane mode. When I'm connected to Wifi it shows I'm using WiFi calling in pull down notifications and on-call screens. All I did was enable the feature, so on that basis, I would say it's not the feature and more likely the service/wifi being used.

turn on airplane mode, turn wifi on and I get when i try to place a call "turn off airplane mode or connect to a wireless network to make a call"
Provider is Safelink. They gave me a t-moble sim card. Already registered e911 and the link that ask for ime said my sim was wifi ready and was turned on.
Everything looks good, but I can't get wifi calling to work. Safelink customer service is useless. They cant answer if they provide wifi calling, they answer with if the phone supports it, and tell me to download a wifi app.

Tried messing around in router settings, with opening ports and ip address and enabling qos on and off. Still nothing.
Really no one can help wtf?
Anyone can suggest cheap EST usa cell service provider that offers wifi calling that works with mi a2 lite?

Wifi calling losing connection

Hi there,
I am trying to use WiFi Calling on my H8324. The thing is, it works but only temporarily.
When I start the phone with a fresh firmware update (or simply flash some oem_*.sin files for instance), the phone switches to WiFi calling even before it recognizes a network (which is a good thing). When I then go into airplane mode, I'm able to make and receive calls via WiFi without issues.
However, if I deactivate the WiFi mode and as soon as the phone registers with a network, WiFi Calling seems to go away and there is no way to bring it back. I've tried to reboot, disable / enable the sim, disable / enable the WiFi Calling option, tried to use only some specific network modes etc. The only way to bring WiFi calling temporarily back is to reflash firmware parts.
I have to add that I'm trying to make that work using a German blau.de sim card (O2/E-Plus network) in Canada. So I'm roaming and that's exactly the reason I would like to use WiFi Calling.
Does anyone have ideas how to solve that? Or maybe as a workaround: Is there a way to disable network registration for only one sim card? (I have the dual sim version and I'm using a Canadian SIM too). I can't use airplane mode activated all the time.
Thanks!
Update: Alright, I've found a workaround for anyone who might be in the same situation. WiFi Calling Sim must be SIM 2. Before registering with the network, activate the airplane mode, then activate WiFi. Now WiFi Calling should be working. Now go to Service menu *#*#4646#*#* and activate mobile radio manually. Now you have a working SIM1 and a SIM2 in Wifi Calling Mode.
I still need to figure it why this has to be done but so far this is a working solution. Unfortunately you won't see any notification icon for the data/voice connection for SIM 1.
