How to enable VoLTE on unlocked T-Mobile variant (GM710TM) - LG G7 ThinQ Questions & Answers

Hello, could anyone please give a method to enable VoLTE on the G7TM? Mine has stopped working on my AT&T MVNO carrier and I want to keep using it! It seems to be hidden in the menus. I tried going into the universal enabler in the service menu but it didn't give the VoLTE option in the settings, the youtube video I was following was showing a standard OS G7 I believe and not a T-Mobile variant. Thanks for any help,

Volte on m8 international

Hello guys, I have HTC ONE_M8 INTERNATIONAL VERSION / UNLOCKED VERSION. I want to use VoLTE but m unable to do so. I have a 4g sim and as soon as I turn on LTE only mode I get 4g Internet access but then m unable to call someone or recieve any calls, its rooted so I need some method to enable volte so that I can connect as well as make calls. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you
What region/country and what carrier?
I don't know a lot about VoLTE, and its pretty new in a lot of regions. But from what I've seen at least in the US (AT&T) they are doing some very carrier specific deployment of VoLTE which doesn't play well with any non-carrier branded ROM.
I also have an International Version of the M8. My carrier just activated VoLTE on their side and say I have to activate it on the settings but I dont see that option anywhere on the settings.
Can someone please help? Is there a workaround?
Cheers

how to enable Volte functionality

Hie Guys first of all i wanna thank u all for sharing ur valuable suggestions with other which cud b life saving for many.Actually i am using lg d855 32gb 4g in India it does not support volte function in indian band so is there any way to turn my g3 into volte
Thanks in advance
I have the same problem and I have searched everywhere to find a solution. I don't think you can enable it by yourself. The phone requires an update by LG to support VoLTE with Indian carriers.

This must be for JIO. I havent tried but have same device D855 32GB Not sure this will work. this is same as suggested for Tmobile too. Site says it has VoLTE RCS http://www.lg.com/in/mobile-phones/lg-G3-D855-32-GB but JIO supports LG G4 onwards. Maybe this will work.
There is a hidden menu. Am on Android 6 so dont know about 5. I see Airtel dropping to H when I call. Tried this and it stayed in 4G but call did not go through. So looks like it tried VoLTE and it did not work. Airplane mode ON and OFF got me back
Anyway try this
call
*#546368#*855# opens hidden settings
go to Modem Protocol in that list
Select VoLTE Radio NV On/Off and set it ON. Device will reboot. {This is where I lost my ability to make calls on Airtel. But data worked fine}
Tell me if it works on JIO. Also I am not sure they would give the free SIM with G3. Anyway try ur luck

Nope... its not working.... calls going blank when VoLTE Radio on from hidden menu... no solution I think for us from LG...
We can just make HD calls over LTE using Reliance's its own app called JioOnline which calls over data using LTE.
I heard the SIM is per IMEI code. Is that fine ? As again http://gadgets.ndtv.com/mobiles/fea...les-that-will-work-on-the-jio-network-1454171 says it should work.
Does it work with their apps ?
Does anyone got the solution ... ??

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)

Wifi calling

So is it possible to enable wifi calling and/or VoLte on stock 8.1 rooted or any firmware of the pixel without being on Verizon? I am on AT&T so just wondering if there is a mod or something I can do to enable it.
Magisk has a module that can do that; VoEnabler .... this module will enable access to the features in the pixel, in Dialer, settings, etc. * but that doesn't mean you can actually use them;
First, check that your carrier/service actually supports the feature .... You can check with a secret code though; in Dialer;
*#*#4636#*#*
Then navigate to "Phone Information"... from there scroll down;
you should see the stuff for VOLTE, Wifi Calling, Video Calling, etc. If it's enabled then you may be good to go..
but if your carrier doesn't support it - enabling it via VoEnabler will do nothing to change that.
Also, I don't know about the US, but in Canada - some carriers (under some plans) do charge extra for this stuff.

It is all carrier dependant, i got my XL from Verizon and I'm on TMO and wifi calling and volte is working but I don't think att supports the pixels for volte and wifi calling

Sort of this. Basically AT&T will not support VoLTE or WiFi calling on any unbranded unlocked devices brought onto their network. Never worked on my T-Mobile Note 4 nor my Google purchased Pixel XL. I was a long time subscriber to their service but once my dependency on MMS messaging increased I had no choice but to switch to another carrier. I wound up on Verizon after a brief time with T-Mobile. Both support full functionality of these devices.

Before installing magisk I dialed that number and they were all greyed out, I installed magisk installed the module and now VoLte and Wifi calling are both enabled in that menu and in the settings menu. I tested wifi calling and it worked. So maybe just need the module installed and it will work. That's what worked for me.

Cool. glad to hear my advice helped... but also using the secret code in the Dialer would've verified if your carrier supports it on their network, beforehand; that's why I posted in that step...
also, just as a reminder; I'd make sure that there aren't any hidden fees associated with using those features, I don't know much about US carriers; aside from that they are (generally) against Net Neutrality.... But I know with my particular carrier, in Canada; If i wasn't using the plan that I am on; they would be charging me extra - and it would add up quick... so best to double check, maybe.

I came to this phone from a s7 edge that had VoLTe and Wifi calling on it never got charged for anything, would it be different with a non carrier phone?

I have no idea: I live in Canada and have never dealt with US carriers ~ that's something that you will need to verify on your own. Some may allow it; some may not... you guys do things quite a bit different south of the border, so I just don't know....
You should be able to find that out in the support/QA area of your Carrier's website ~ if not there, you can ask them directly.
but yeah, obviously, if it was working on your S7 - then your network supports it....
Hello, I am on Vodafone UK, recently my area is getting poor 4G coverage so the vodafone tech guy asked me to shift on wifi calling inside the house. He enabled it from carrier perpective but I have to enable it on handset as well. I struggled to find the option. Now using the secret code above I can see I have wifi calling option greyed out. btw, I am on stock android 8.1. What is the best and least intrusive way to get the wifi calling working on my handset.
I am not a developer but have experience with root on previous devices. If I have to install Magisk( is there a non-root option?) what module etc I need to install to get this working please..

Flash magisk and get the module called VoEnabler just sear h VoLte in the search bar it should pop up then after it installs restart phone and you should have the options.
Hi Praveenjohri - did you get this to work?
I too have a Pixel XL and on Vodafone UK; again the wifi calling option is greyed out.
Any layman guides as to how to Flash magisk and go about enabling this? Thanks in advance

Wifi calling greyed out (sprint to t-mobile)

Can anyone please explain the steps to enable wifi calling feature? i can toggle volte on/off but not wi-fi calling.
this was a sprint phone now on tmobile prepaid network.
Sprints firmware in conjunction with T-Mobile being T-Mobile does not permit both WiFi calling (or VOWiFi) or VoLTE (voice over 4g/lte).
T-Mobile made it known they will not permit support for this device and as of their plans for 2021, they plan to shut down 2g and 3g networks. Theoretically you'd have to upgrade your phone to a 5g T-Mobile certified phone. As per the merger with sprint, only select sprint based devices will be patched to work on T-Mobile (galaxy s20 ultra) being one of them.
To summarize, it won't work because sprint locked it and T-Mobile won't permit it. Gotta love the "un-carrier" for letting you "bring your own device". T-Mobile is more to blame. They don't want to support it. Hopefully we get a full root with a custom rom up that permits volte or VOWiFI otherwise this phone might be dead by 2021q1. Probably why it's <$300 on eBay right now.
i read some were able to get service codes to access hidden menu to update apn and mms settings by deleting sprint settings. would that fix all the issues?
