Hi guys, has anyone heard anything about any variant other than Indian getting VoLTE?
Thanks
not likely
Not yet
Most probably not and won't. India was prioritise because of jio market
VoLTE is not widely used in other countries compared to India. The next country I know is China.

And even if used, there are charges. In Indian it was free coz of jio and boosted the entire market atleast from user's perspective.

here is one for $303 shipped
says it is running Cyanogenmod 12 so this should be what we all want...
anyone willing to take the plunge?
Eh actually no, that's the Chinese one with cm 12.1 preview flashed into it, is useless in the USA since the LTE bands are not supported, the international version should come out the 15th and should support the LTE bands used in USA/ Canada/ Americas

I received an update from ZUK Sales department claiming that Chinese and "International" bands are identical. Only difference is the software.
Btw, for EU customers: Zuk also told me that tomorrow, this link will be alive and phones are shipped within EU: http://www.ebay.es/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=291548699419
Then it's useless in USA, that's really dumb releasing a phone without LTE, that's a major deal breaker.
Also Tomtop is a Chinese store that imports to USA and other countries, what they sell is the Chinese version.

There is no difference between china and internation version, just the OS and the charger/box. I order my direct from China.
No band 20 (800MHz) but any other LTE band (1800/2100/2600) so I got 4G...
Hello guys! As i can know today, HUAWEI P9 (especially EVA-L19) does support VoLTE feature, but now its disabled on software-based level.
Today i was speaking with russian Huawei support team and they said, that need to collect many requests for enabling this feature.
As i know, this forum reading some Huawei stuff and via that thread i want to collect some requests for enabling that feature in next sw updates.
Many EU countries and Russia already launched VoLTE feature with LTE Video calling (in russia its Beeline and MegaFon)
I can just say that there's no VoLTE support on my P9 on Telenor/Telia network in Denmark.
Is there any way to activate volte on Huawei P9 lite VNS-L21? I purchased it from Dubai.
Yes Volte is required for my P9. I have also voted yes. Thank you for the thread
I am purchased from UAE,how can activate volte on my p9,now I am in in
India
Volte on EVA-19C dual SIM model
Hi, I bought this model P9-EVA-19C with dual sim in Dubai. But this is not supporting Volte in India. I have update the firmware to 390 too, still it is not supporting VOLTE.....:crying:

i've seen dudes have voLTE in the magic rainbow thread try to install that rom. I can't test cause my country probably doesnt have voLTE in the first place.
With the New update C464B383 in Turkey here it came Volte support with Vodafone.

Dear Ryan Fox,
Most of the 4G operators in India or not 4GLTE, infact all of them are 4G VoLTE.
Huawei Phones purchased in China or UAE are not working with Voice calling, Data is fine.
I have 3 phones, Mate 8, Mate 9 and P9 all purchased in Huawei store in Schenzen during my visit to China.
They do not support 4G VolTE voice calling in India.
We all have to convey this message to the Experts in Huawei to issue some software upgradation over the Air.
my number +919493407596
Jio voice seems to work with the voice app(at least when i tried it a couple of months ago)
At least the two major French operators are providing volte but no option with my p9
I am using Xperia single sim Indian version. I want volte feature in this device. Someone help me

Its not that simply as you think. First off all, carrier must support 4g Volte and 2nd, carrier must make a deal with manufacturer. When manufacturer agree , then he can make a update that brings that feature, but often is it with new android version update.
I think you are not from India. So why you answer like this

Iam not from India, but Z3+ has same software in every country except carriers.... I can buy Z3+ from everywhere and i wont have Volte. Read what i wrote. Maybe will be some custom ROMs with Volte, but it wont work, because your operator dont accept your custom software..
In India volte feature is not carrier base. When I contact Sony service center. They said z3+ hardware not support to volte
HI everybody,
I am french but I currently live in USA. I would love buy the one plus 3t but I am not sure if it will work and I will go back to France. I am very confuse about the bands....
Thank you for you help !!
It will "work" though you will likely be unable to access LTE from most carriers in Europe. Essentially, you'll have a fully functional phone with crippled mobile data (reduced coverage, slower speeds, no VoLTE, etc.).
it must be unlocked, then yes will work
Unlocked phone will work any where in the world.
Took my oneplus 3t to India from America. Used my American sim card and got an Indian sim card as well. Both worked flawlessly, LTE included for Indian sim card. Phone is unlocked will work all over the world.
thank you for your answer, In the one plus' website is impossible to choose the europe version... Do you know where I can find it ?
because i am still confuse couse in this website willmyphonework.net they told me that in 4G LTE network "it may work" :crying:
because i am still confuse conse in this website willmyphonework.net they told me that in 4G LTE network "it may work" :crying:
The US model only supports LTE bands 1/2/4/5/7/8/12/17/30; Its not a true world phone. You'll get voice, text, and 3G data. Now for LTE, band 7 is the only band that some European carriers use so that may work if you are connected via band 7 and is available in that area.
I don't know why Oneplus didn't just include the European models LTE
Thank you for your answer. I m gonna think about if I buy it or not :/
Yeah it is not very commercial to send just the american version...

You should be fine. All French carriers are using LTE band 7 too. You can check here:

You're lucky beacause I talk with them also and they don't want to send me the EU version one. I will not take the risk to buy the american version, I m gonna see an other phone...
Thank you for your help, I think Im not gonna take the risk to buy the US version and after it doesn't work very well in France... They don't want to send me the UE version so I m gonna see an other brand.
Hi everyone!
I recently found that Amazon India is now selling the Snapdragon 888 variant of the S21 Ultra, planning to buy the same but I wanted to inqure here first if anyone has the snapdragon variant and has tried to change their CSC to INS? Also if all the services like VoLTE, WiFi calling work with the same or not?

There are only 3 CSC's which can be enabled on the SM-G9980. CHC China, BRI Taiwan and TGY Hong Kong. If the device you referenced has it's Primary CSC as CHC China some content and certain apps are restricted. The TGY Hong Kong Primary CSC is best suited for international users. It isn't a Multi-CSC Device so any changes require flashing different firmware. The post you highlighted is misleading, it states Tmobile is the carrier but Tmobile doesn't sell a Branded SM-G9980. I have the same device in the US and have VoLTE, Wi-Fi Calling and timely Updates. In India YMMV. If Call Features and 5G are a priority your Service Provider's device is the best option.
Thanks for your reply!
You mentioned that you have the same model, which CSC are you on?
Yes, the Amazon Page says tmobile but it is an unlocked device that the seller is selling. In India we only get the exynos variant and this is the only Snapdragon variant that is available to us. The reviews say that Indian carriers are working fine my main concern is CSC related features like in-built call recording, does your device have that? I have it on my Note 20 (CSC = INS).
Also I'm curious when you say that it only supports those 3 CSC, does that mean it won't even change to INS if I tried? OR does it change but bricks the device or some other limitation happens (like Knox tripping)?
I'm on the TGY Hong Kong CSC, I wouldn't consider the CHC or BRI variants. Some users have reported the TGY and BRI have identical software but I'm not sure that's correct. The SM-G9980 TGY CSC is available on ebay or online from a number of retailers in Hong Kong, I purchased mine online from Hong Kong since most on ebay don't offer the 512GB option. The device doesn't offer native call recording however a number of apps can enable this function. At this time it's impossible to flash any Exynos Global Firmware on any Snapdragon variants and that's not likely to change going forward. You can't make a general rule that this or that feature will work in India, all service providers aren't using identical metrics. If your concern is maximizing call features acquiring your service provider's device is the best bet.

yes but at least you are getting a bill and a sale receipt to ship it back and get it repaired under warranty. sure its a long shot, but i bet itll still be cheaper than buying a new s21 ultra
Did you ever get it to move to a different country firmware?
I have the same device, and the lack of timely updates and the control of carriers of what get released and what not is scare to say the least.. especially when u are holding a hongkong/china variant..
Let us know if u figured any way out or experimented with it..

My advice. Get your local version. Exynos this year wasn't bad. I got this 9980 for 16/512gb SD and am desperate to get other regions updates but so far haven't found a satisfactory way to do that. Either you figure that out or get the local version. That way your local carriers will be in charge not other country's.

Samsung has paused Android 12 Updates on the SM-G9980 at least until sometime this month. So far they’ve released 3 updates of Android 12 for the S21 and it still isn't stable. I'm not in any rush to receive A12, will wait a few weeks after it's available and see if they've finally fixed all the bugs. It's not so much Samsung's fault, blame Google, it causing problems on many different brands.
