Enabling WiFi Calling on the Oreo Stock ROM - Lenovo K8 Note Questions & Answers

We have a very bad network connection and I want to enable WiFi Calling in my Lenovo K8 Note . I live in India and I have a Jio network 4g sim which the company claims supports VoLTE and Wifi calling.
When I dial *#*#4636#*#* I can see the wifi calling provisioned as grayed out. I cannot change the settings. (see the attached screenshot)
I have also tried updating the following settings using ADB shell
settings put global wfc_ims_mode 2

But it doesn't work. I still didn't get any option to set WiFi calling in the settings.

Is there any custom rom available, which support VoLTE and WiFi calling?

How to enable VoLTE on Pixel?

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.)

Same problem in Argentina, Pixel is NOT SOLD here so.... out of luck, but I tried this (already knew of the menu) and all my options are blacked out -can't enable any of them-, advice?????
Thanks.
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.

the module only changes the settings to allow for toggling but does not provide needed ims libraries.

I had to toggle VoLTE off then on, restart. It's working for me now
"Turn on Video Calling"
Option is disabled, couldn't turn on
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)

VoLTE and WiFi calling on Cricket Wireless?

Did anybody get VoLTE and WiFi calling running on Cricket? I'm on stock 21s and enabled VoLTE but never connects in HD. I don't see WiFi calling even as an option in the stock ROM.

VoLTE & WiFi calling are fine on T-Mobile, and possibly their MVNOs. VoLTE works on AT&T, not sure about WiFi calls. However it's possible that Cricket might not allow 3rd party phones to use those services, or maybe it needs to be provisioned by customer service.

Cricket WiFi calling, on One Plus 5T

Has anyone figured out how to get WiFi calling working on Cricket wireless on the One Plus 5T. I have it enable, but doesn't seem to be working. I'm sure there has been a work around for this ?? Sometimes cell service in the house is spotty and this would really help missing calls. Any suggestions or work around, please advise.
have you tried installing voenabler module through magisk. That is if your rooted of course Iff it still wont work then your provider may not support it yet.

I'm not rooted. They do support it, but on their own devices not BYOD, but I read there was a work around, so figured I's ask here.
I myself experienced the exact same situation a few years ago the provider I was with had the same policy and after many arguments with there call centre I decided to switch provider to where they didn't restrict the phones functions. Usually in such a situation you need there own bloated firmware to recieve volte/wifi calling. There isn't much of a way out of this in my opinion unless you change provider but I could be wrong. I think they do this so customers buy phones from them exclusively and it's a sly marketing thing. Sorry I couldn't help. It is possible however that by rooting and then installing the module I suggested you could get round this but there's no guarantee. That's if your prepared to root.
Maybe you've tried this already but I found the following.

Yes I had already done this and enable it, but it still didn't work, I have it enabled but does not show up on the status bar. I'll keep researching, thanks though.
I had enabled from this link which is pretty much the same way, ( https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2018/08/enabling-voice-over-wifi-on-the-oneplus-5t-and-three-uk/ )
Good luck. Last resort might be changing provider. That's what I had to do.

Thanks. It's not a big deal, missing calls doesn't happen often, would simply of been nice to be able to have the WiFi calling when able. No Biggie.
I read somewhere about flashing VoEnabler module via magisk ??, does this require root, or can it be flashed without rooting ??

Sunder, I've done the below before a while back, and it still doesn't work, I have Cricket wireless, so maybe that is why. I have enabled all, but in the status bar the icon for WiFi calling is not showing when WiFi calling is turned on, so I assume it's not connected.

Which network service provider you are currently using means which sim is used in your phone.
Yes, I am very aware of that, and it doesn't work, I've tried it many times, Voltle or WiFi calling icon never comes on in status bar when enabled.

Bro, I think wifi calling is not working in your region Because of the network service provider not staring wifi calling(VoWiFi) technology in your region.
And it may be oneplus 5T is not support your network wifi calling.
In my India, this technique is working and i am using it perfectly with jio and airtel.
That was my point a few post above, where I mentioned it does not work with Cricket wireless, and Cricket does offer VoWiFi, but it woks only with the phones you buy from them. So I was letting people know it doesn't work with Cricket.

Does anyone have WiFi calling working?

I've tried the advice on this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-mi-10-ultra/help/wifi-calling-t4157029/page2 and have managed to enable the settings for wireless calling, but when I have no mobile signal and am connected to WiFi the phone won't allow me to make calls, it says something like "unable to make call, please connect to a WiFi network"
Even though I'm connected to WiFi...
Has anyone else had any luck with this? I'm using a xiaomi Mi 10t, but I imagine it'd be the same for xiaomi Mi 10t pro.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
VoLTE and VoWiFi are working fine for me.
I bougt the phone from the same carried that I am using.
Thanks for the reply, yeah that's what I've found while I've been researching, it has to be carrier enabled for the phone. We can turn on the settings from the phone but if they haven't enabled it (usually in their branded firmware) it won't work...

I activated VoLTE and VoWiFi on my gf's Poco with the codes and the options show up but only VoLTE works.
I verified that it works, it stays on 4G while in call. When calling while on WIFI only it shows an VoLTE HD icon but VoWiFi is not working.
Don't feel to root her phone and try the other things.
Code:
VoLTE *#*#86583#*#*
VoWIFI *#*#869434#*#*

Wifi Calling with Cricket?

I had checked the Settings and everywhere. I can't seem to find the Wifi Calling option of the TCL 10 Pro with Cricket(AT&T). I am wondering if there's an app or software (or any other ways) that can be installed to have the Wifi Calling feature for this phone.

Settings — SIM cards and mobile network — SIM card settings — "your AT&T SIM" — Wi-Fi calling. Or it doesn't work? (I can't check, haven't got Cricket in my country)
