Wow no one here have courage? To try this? Lol
C'mon guys pop that SIM card in there and share the experience!!!!!!!!!!

I would like no know this too as I just got the 4G LTE and text messaging works flawlessly, except phone calls as it gives me busy signal on all calls that are made. Don't know what's wrong. The sim card is activated and everything works as it should. Except phone calls..

There's really not a lot to talk about. The SM-P601/5 are just giant phones. Anything a N3 can do, they can do. Dialers and MMS/SMS are pretty much the same on every phone and the SM-P601/5 are no exception.
Here's a screen shot...
P.S. - In order to use the voice and messaging features the SM-P601/5 have to be provisioned by your carrier as "phones." Tablet-specific data plans don't support calls or MMS even though the device is capable.

I was waiting for a response and didn't get anyone to chime in so I finally got my note 10.1 p605 so here goes yes you need to get a sim with voice and data plan it will work. I'm currently using it as my phone at the moment and it rocks!

I have the SM-P605 4G LTE and I couldn't figure out how to make phone calls on this device. Can you help?

Is your SM-P605 from a carrier or Samsung? The U.S. carriers and possibly some others disable voice and MMS and always have in the tablets they offer. If you don't see the Dialer and Messaging apps when you look in the app drawer I'm guessing they've been disabled in whatever version of SM-P605 you have. If you see them and can't use them that means the SIM you're using probably doesn't support voice and MMS. They're either there out-of-the-box or they aren't. If they aren't there's not a lot you can do about it.

BarryH,
I got mine from the Verizon store. I downloaded a Dialer app from Google Play and tried to make a call, but still no go. The app brought up a Dialer, but when I punch in a telephone number, and press Send, it just beeps and does nothing. The Sim card was from my 4G LTE phone. I swapped it over.
I was, however, able to make calls using Google Voice & Groove IP. But man, I would just love to be able to make calls just like a phone.

Verizon HD & Video Calling

Has anyone been able to use HD calling & native phone dialer video calling? I have both features turned on through the verizon website/app & also on settings/networks & also on the phone dialer settings but I don't see it when I make calls.

I've had the hd voice calling activate on its own when I call a friend with an S6 on Verizon. There were no prompts but my dialer showed "HD" during the call and the audio was much improved.

I think the "much improved" is very subjective. The person on the other end sounds unnatural to me... Maybe its the years of ****ty audio quality that Verizon has forced on me.... But I'm not a fan. Besides it is fairly worthless as the other party has to be a compatible verizon phone. Most of my calls, other than my wife, are on other networks or land lines, where the HD does not come into play...

HD calling works for me (Shows the HD icon when Codec is AMR-WB). However video calling does not. If I force Video calling provisioning. It turns off after reboot. Works on my buddies Pixel XL however...

I'm on Verizon also and HD calling works for me. I haven't tried video calling but it shows up for some contacts.

I'm in the same boat. All settings and provisioning activated, but don't see the "HD" icon on calls, or anything related to video calling.
Let me know if you figure anything out.

Both work for me. Video calling icon comes up when on call and hd voice icon as well.

I haven't been able to test HD Voice, but I'm finally seeing options for video calls in the dialer.
*I think* this is what fixed it:
-Dial *#*#4636#*#*
-Select Phone Info
-Make sure provision boxes are checked for VOLTE, Video and Wi-Fi Calling
-Reboot, just to be safe
-Go to Wireless & networks settings and select Network settings reset
-Turn off Advanced Calling and turn it back on
-Reboot

When people with Verizon call me, I get HD Voice but when I call them, it's standard quality. Wtf Verizon/Google...

Video calling and HD work for me. I have the Google version, not the Verizon one. It's nice to be able to switch during a call but the quality is often bad even with a good connection. Google Duo seems to work better and works with iPhones and all Android phones.

Dangit!
I thought I was all good, but I have the same thing. Incoming calls are HD, outgoing are not. Or if they are, there's no icon indicating it.
Still can't get Wi-Fi calling to activate, also.

I'm on Google's support chat right now regarding the HD voice with outgoing calls issue on Verizon. I'll post what I find.
Edit: they kept trying to tell me it was Verizon's fault. They said I either didn't have HD voice enabled on my account or I had a service issue both of which are wrong. I've triple checked my account and it wouldn't work when someone called me if it weren't enabled. Also, it doesn't matter where I am, the issue always behaves the same. Outbound calls give no HD voice but inbound do.

HD outgoing and video works for me. Gs pixel on 7.1.1 but it worked on 7.1 too. Works on both wifi and LTE. Wifi calling is switchable also.
I'd say get a new sim card. Sometimes vzw tech can reprovision the card properly. Sometimes it's easier to just get a new one. I've had weird stuff happen where only one side of the conversation can hear the other and only a new card would fix it.

Thanks. Good to know there are some Pixels on Verizon out there without issues.
I'll try the new sim. Mine is at least three years old--maybe four!

Can anyone explain why when I try to Facebook call, video, etc data drops instantly? It happens every time. I have unlocked Google PIXEL xl.

OP3, Custom ROMs and VOLTE

Oxygen OS seems to be the only one giving me perfect implementation of VOLTE on JIO network in India. By perfect implementation I mean:
1. No need to install their app to make voice calls work.
2. Calls do not get disabled when connected to other WIFI networks.
On LineageOS 14.1 what I experienced was:
1. Had to install their Jio4GVoice app to make calling work (no big deal, I can live with that).
2. If I connect to a WiFi network (need to often do that at work), calling from this 4G SIM seems gets disabled. I can no longer even receive calls.
Has anyone tried various combinations. Could you share your experience. I don't like being stuck to OxygenOS but currently that's the only one working perfectly.

Here in the US, Volte is not only important to me but so is wifi calling or Vowifi. Both of these are implemented in the stock OOS rom. Until these features are offered in a custom rom, I can't switch as there are areas in my home that have poor network reception and wifi calling is necessary.

So it seems the alternatives like LineageOS or AOSP etc are lacking in VOWiFi.

I recently bought the sim.. Tried on aosip but didnt work without the voice app.. I didn't try it out with other roms yet though.. Works as it should on oos based roms..

OOS 4.0.2 is perfect. Lol I can even switch mobile data off and voice calls still works. Best volte implementation yet.

True.. They have this patch in the redmi note 3 section which enables volte on custom roms for it so you can use the stock dialer.. Not sure if it'd work on the op3 though..

Lineage OS just got released wait for a month at least . When Snapshot comes use that .
and I dont think VoLTE need any app , I dont have any of it but surely app wont do anything.

Managed to get it working.. All I did was flash an OOS ROM (experience), was using it for a while I guess you need to make a calls and send SMS, then clean wipe and flash aosip.. Calls and sms work now with or without WiFi [emoji122] [emoji119]

3G / 4G Mobile data doesnt work when active call is in progress

Hi guys,
Did anyone here notice that when you have an active call which is on loudspeaker, you cant browse the web with your mobile data! I am hoping this is a setting which i can disable / enable to allow me to browse the web with my mobile data when currently on a phone call with someone.
Quite annoying and i am not sure if its a bug or a settings.
Would appreciate it if someone can shed some light
Thanks!

The same to me. But i know it isn't because of the phone or miui. If your carrier doesn't support VoLTE, the phone will temporary be disconnected 4G during calls.

Hey guys,
Doing tests it seems to be a bug.. I have 2 Sims in my phone, if I get a call on SIM 2 which I use for receiving calls (this has no mobile data) and I try to browse the web it does not work, my SIM 1 is the SIM I use for browsing the web with mobile data because I got unlimited data on that SIM. It seems that when on a call with SIM 2 and I try browse it is using SIM 2 for the browsing (but this fails because I got no data to use on SIM 2). If I get a call on my SIM 1, I can browse the web successfully while on the call! So it seems to be a setting or a bug or something to that effect? Nothing to do with volte etc.
Any ideas?
I rang my operators and they all allow for browsing and phone calls.. doing standard tests the above is what I got. So it seems to be a dual SIM issue or something?

Looks like the SIM you're making the calls from doesn't support VoLTE or doesn't have it enabled. Without it the phone will drop to 3G when making calls and you won't have data.

Are you using the 8/128 Chinese version in the US? Is the 4g LTE connectivity good ? I' d like to purchase the Chinese version since it has more RAM and use it with t-mobile but I see that the international version supports a few more bands but only comes with 6 GB of RAM.

I live in ireland, i have the 8GB ram china rom version. Now running eu rom.
See even if 4g goes i can use mobile data with 3g?
If i purchase mobile data for sim 1, i can browse the web and have a call and vice Versa with sim 2.. i dont think its todo with volte, i think its because im on a call with like sim 2 and the phone doesnt no to use sim 1 for data?

Getting voice over wi-fi on this phone? Anyone

Hello there, im trying to activate vowifi, i can activate volte fine but not vowifi, anyone got it activated and if you did how did you do it.
Sent from my SHARK MBU-H0 using Tapatalk

Are you in the USA? If so, that is the reason. Xiaomi phones are not whitelisted for wifi calling by ANY carrier here and this is not expected to change soon.
I am presuming you used short codes to turn on Volte successfully. The Wowfi code works also (phone is wifi calling capable) but its carrier disabled.
I bought a paid plan from FreeUP, an ATT MVNO, where you can use an app dialer to make outgoing wifi calls (and free unlimited international calls) but still no incoming wifi calls.
Same pricing as Mint Mobile.
(Fyi, even if you weren't using a global phone the only Android phones guaranteed to get wifi calling here are the ones the carriers here sell ... There are a few exceptions ... The newer pixels and a few others.)
