Can't get Volte on unlocked Verizon nexus 6 - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I enabled advanced calling to my account, when I went to the hidden menu i tapped on volte provisioning, turned the radio off and back on and the provisioning didn't change. Did some reboots, tried again and still can't turn on the provisioning. I also waited a few days to see if the problem would fix itself somehow.
Rooted 6.0
Any other ideas to get this working?

What makes you think it's not working? How are you testing? If you bought from Verizon it should have come with it on.
For the hidden menu make sure it says "turn off VoLTE". If it says "turn on VoLTE" that means it's currently off and you need to press the button to turn it on, and the toggle the radio or reboot.

I had to do this too. I just went into that hidden menu, turned on provisioning, reboot, then went to settings > more > cellular networks and made sure enhanced 4G LTE mode was turned on. Turning the provisioning on just makes the setting appear or disappear in your settings. I hope this bit of clarification helps.

4g lte gone, ideas?

Ok here's the deal. Upgraded to ICS 232 and all went pretty much flawless other than motoprint no longer works. All was good and I was in happy land. However with ICS was stuck in 4g mode all the time and was sucking my battery like a hungry vampire. So I went into phone info and changed to CDMA auto PRL . Locked me in 3g only. Was back in happy land, battery life good again. Well I wanted to use my 4g so I went in to turn it on and it kills all data. No 4g, no 3g not even evdo. When I reboot it always resets back to CDMA auto PRL only.
Any ideas short of factory reset?

Turn off phone, remove SIM, reboot without SIM. After it's on, turn it off again, re-insert SIM and restart it. Try toggling 4G with *#*#4636#*#*
This sometimes works, as does toggling airplane mode

Same problem for me. I have tried toggling airplane mode, tried toggling wifi, rebooting, simply cannot get the phone out of cdma only (prl) mode.if anyone has experience in fixing this, it would be greatly appreciated! I even went though VZW's level 3 tech support and told then I have Ics on my bionic (which didn't void my warranty?) But they were at a loss...

you cannot switch back to 4g (LTE/CDMA/EvDo) if you have "Data roaming" enabled. Uncheck the data roaming box and try it again. Worked for me. :good:
Had this happen to me when I tried to enable Juice Defender's AOSP helper on the official ICS (though I had to update manually using HouseofBionic's method). It dropped me to 3G only, and the "preferred network" setting is grayed out, but showing LTE/CDMA. Clearly, the setting was inaccessible.
I uninstalled AOSP Helper, then disabled JuiceDefender.
Then I went into the Hidden Menu (that 4636 thing) and it says CDMA Auto (PRL). I tried to change it to CDMA/LTE/EVDO , then reboot, but it's still 3G. Went back into Hidden menu, it's back to CDMA Auto (PRL).
Went back in, change it again to CDMA/LTE/EVDO, but this time there's a "refresh" button below that, to update the IMSC I think. I hit that.
Reboot phone, now I have no 3G
Went to settings / data usage to toggle data, nothing.
Went to airplane mode, out, and voila, 4G/LTE.
Not sure which one of those actually forced the update, but it worked, so if someone else had the same problem, try that.

Weird issue with multiple roms

Anybody with Verizon have the enhanced 4g lte in settings. I've flashed pure nexus, chroma and the option wasn't there. To be fair I had chroma installed and it was there then the option disappeared. So my volte wasn't working because option was gone. Advanced calling is in my account. The only way I can get enhanced 4g lte is in cm. I've just trying to figure out if it's just me. I have the latest radio for Verizon that they just pushed out for 5.1.1
Have you gone to the dialer and entered in *#*#4636#*#*?
Once that is entered there should be an option at the bottom. Tap it once and restart the phone if it doesn't switch immediately.

Pure Nexus 6.0 R1- Signal Works But No Data

[Q] on pure nexus 6.0 r1 I cannot get any data/lte my signal works but no data.?
I flashed the pure nexus ROM 6.0 release coming from benzorom some nightl y build not positive which. I flash the 6.0 bootloader and radio from recovery and then flashed the ROM and gapps. Can't get any data for some reason. Can someone help?
Are you on tmobile?? I had to add the correct APN to get data

No I'm on Verizon actually. I always thought Verizon automatically had the APN settings stored? Its kinda odd. But it sucks because I want to use that ROM. Its so nice!
Here's your solution!

Hi all,
I installed the 5.1OTA and could not get Verizon Enhanced LTE (advanced calling, VoLTE, etc....) to work. I tried what everyone else suggested and nothing made it work (never showed the enhanced LTE setting in the cellular menu). Here are the steps I took in case anyone else is having the same problem.
1. Re-Install radio and bootloader from here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934540313
2. Enter the hidden menu using *#*#4636#*#*
3. Go in to Phone information
4. Click the TURN ON VOLTE PROVISIONED FLAG button (wont change)
5. Click the TURN OFF RADIO button
6. Wait a few seconds (for radio to turn off) and then click the TURN ON RADIO button.
7. Observe that the TURN ON VOLTE PROVISIONED FLAG button has changed to TURN OFF....
8. Go in to Settings>>...More>>Cellular Networks and make sure that Enhanced 4G LTE Mode is enabled.
I did all this and I still did not have data while making a call. I had to go to VZW site and go into my account and tell it to activate a device on my current line. I entered the IMEI and it gave me a warning about softcard and then went right back to same screen, When I clicked next it gave me a warning that it was unsupoorted device. After this it all worked perfect although the phone is still not recognized on the VZW site.

This and a quick call to Customer Care (*226) for them to provision Advanced Calling took care of it for me.

Go look at your apn settings/more/cellular networks/access point names/ find the one selected then compare it to what Verizon apn should be. I have tmobile and when i installed the ROM there was only two apns neither worked.

Stuck on verizon 3G, previously had LTE working.

Hello I'm having some issues getting LTE to work on my Nexus 6 running BenzoRom.
I am only able to get 3G, when I previously had LTE working for a very long time. I'm not exactly sure what happened but I tried clearing, dalvik cache, cache, restoring default APN settings, restarting my phone, flashing a new rom, putting in a different sim card (with LTE working) and nothing fixed the issue.
I'm guessing I should just flash stock rom but I'd rather not go through the hassle. I think it might be my APN settings since I vaguely remember messing with it but I restored back to default and LTE still did not show up.
What the heck happened?
Have you gone into the phone menu? If not, *#*#4636#*#* then select phone... And look at my screen shot; at the preferred network type and the turn off volte flag... Yours may say turn on. I reboot after selecting the network and turning on the volte flag
Then in settings/more/cellular networks there should be enhanced 4g/LTE mode, turn that on of it isn't already.
Ya, I'm a dope... Adding the screenshot I referenced.

Pixel 5 gets stuck in CDMA voice network type

After realizing that call dropping connections issues with my Pixel 5 were related to some radio issue that caused my phone to be stuck in the CDMA mode, I reset the connections and all was fine again. Phone was regularly switching between LTE and 5G and the voice network type remained in LTE mode. Prior to doing the reset, no rebooting or SIM swapping would cause the phone to get "unstuck" from CDMA mode.
So, now I have been watching the SIM card status and since I work in an area of really poor coverage, my phone does go into CDMA mode sometimes while at work. What I did notice, was if the phone was in CDMA when I left my job and traveled into a normal LTE service area, the phone remained in CDMA mode until I reboot the phone, and then it goes back into the normal LTE mode.
Has anyone else noticed this behavior? What behind the scenes app or process controls the switching of the voice network type? Any insight would be appreciated.
There is a network user built into the android kernel
but In settings Network and connections
Look for prefer 5G.... That should help your issue a bit
Dont use developer option aggressive wifi over cellular handover "keep it off"
Or there may be a software update that patches it

Not seeing a developer option about aggressive wifi over cellular handover. Only seeing a "mobile data always active" whcih says "Always keep mobile data active even when wifi is active for fast network switching", which is toggled on.
