Hi friends, I bought unlocked 64gb, single sim version of note 8 from New York last week but when I tried to use it with "Jio" sim in India, I found that phone does not support volte. Neither I could find any option in settings to activate that. So, how can I activate volte in the Said handset. Presently, using volte through "jio4gvoice" app. Pls help.
There is a thread about switching USA Carriers.
If you have, the right files you can get VOLT and other features working. At lest in the USA.
don't update this app!!

I am using unlocked gn 8-N950U1 in the US with tmobile, I get VoLTE and video calling as well as wifi calling. For video calling feature, download Shortcut Master (Lite), open and click app explorer, scroll down to IMS settings, launch then look for IMSsettingsLaunchActivity, turn the followings to On.

For me, I just leave it there. It is completely up to you. It's just really small app, it won't take that much space. I leave it there just in case we update firmware from Samsung, video calling settings might be lost and we have to do the settings again. By the way, I'm glad it works for you there.
I leave mine as well...I like playing in settings and other apps...it is really a useful tool once you get used to its search feature

Hello Amit,
I have the same phone At&T Note8 with Android 7 unlocked, trying to run JIO VOLTE.
I understand the steps and tried, it did not work for me, no icon for VOLTE nor i can make any calls.
Can you please share the S/W version and steps you enabled ? I have been stuck from a week
Also, phone is asking for a 'number' when i enable the RCS , i gave the same JIO number it did not accept. Did you also get that prompt ? Is your RCS enabled ?
Thanks.
Dear friend, I just followed the steps mentioned in this thread and it's working fine till date without any issues. Just recheck you might have missed something. And about sw version will let you know in a day as the phone is of my uncle. Onething more, after following the steps did you check in settings menu and was volte option showing there after you followed the steps?

This worked great for me thank you.
Works on Android 7.0, but not on Android 8.0
Thanks for the update. I have been using VoLTE in India using this method since last Aug 2017. However after recent official Android Oreo update on 17th March 2018, I am unable to invoke the IMSSettingsLaunchActivity using any Shortcut application. Using "QuickShortcutMaker" app when I tried to invoke this activity, I got the error message:
"Sorry. You cannot launch this activity from this app because it requires some additional permissions to launch."
This was working perfectly on Android 7.0.
Any alternate idea to enable VoLTE switch (aka IMS Service switch)? Through ADB? (No rooting please).
Thanks.

Whenever I click on Ims launcher activity error comes as no data found.

Yes it's not working on Oreo. There are a few posts on here about it, I saw on one person's posts that I would have to find again that they have came up with a java programme that can get pass the OTP or one time passcode to access the IMS settings. I haven't tried it yet, but want to try that out soon

This is based on rooting which I want to avoid af all times since many of my org related apps would stop working on a rooted phone.
I had downgraded my S8(Sprint unlocked) phone to Nougat long back because of this issue. I can't upgrade till the issue with ims doesn't get resolved on Oreo rom.

no it doesn't matter whether you're running custom rom or stock android...the updated myjio app doesn't seem to give bar code. Install the old apk which is 3.2.05 now turn off your WIFI or cellular data and open the app now tap on myjio there you'll see an option 'Get Jio Sim', now turn on your WiFi or your cellular data and tap on get jio sim and there you are, just follow the instructions and you're done if this doesn't works for you then i suggest you to follow this one - first clear from recent apps if you have opened it now turn on your WiFi or cellular data and open the app and tap on install jio apps it will then automatically install all the apps via playstore, once you are done head to my jio and tap on it then select get jio sim

no, you don't need any patch you just need to install all the apps and you can make calls via jio4gvoice app, the devices that don't have VoLTE can only make calls through the app, if you have VoLTE support then you can directly call from the dialer itself but i'm not totally sure about this but as far as i know moto x 2014 doesn't support VoLTE, our device supports VoLTE but we just need a software or update or probably editing the build.prop will enable the VoLTE only few devices supports VoLTE and maybe your sim is not activated, to activate you need to dial a number which is 1977 only if you have the network also you can see here https://www.quora.com/How-can-I-use-my-jio-4g-sim
but once you apply for the sim i believe the sim will be activated after 15 days as I've been told

great, I'm on RR rom too but my sim is not activated yet so i can't really tell, but once your sim is activated you need to dial 1977 for televerification process but for this you need to submit your documents including the bar code first if you've done this then you need to wait for the sim to activate first

Do you have the volte switch in your settings ?
VoLTE is a feature that is provisioned by your carrier. Most carriers will not provision VoLTE unless they have an open policy (allows all capable devices), or if you are using a carrier-branded phone. For the second option, lots of carriers claim that it is to ensure stability and quality of service, though I suspect that's all BS they spew in an attempt to sell more of their own phones.
Anyhow, try to find out if your carrier provisions VoLTE to unlocked/unbranded phones. If not, activating the VoLTE setting within the phone will not do anything.
I'm in an AT&T HD Voice coverage area.. never been able to use it or even see if it works. The build.prop edits seem to work for some but I've never been able to get it to work at all.. Could be AT&T blocking it of course since I don't have an AT&T device really on any of my 4 lines.. All unlocked non-carrier phones.

It is toggled on under status bar together with VoWifi but no idea how to activate it. I suspect my carrier doesn't allow it yet for this phone.
I seem to now have been able to activate it by *#800# but still no joy. I'm guessing this is due to three blocking it rather than my phone.
I use the VoLTE enabler in Magisk and once I enable and restart I have no issues. Workout it I don't get HD calling and any call I make, my phone drops from LTE to H. I'm on AT&T.
OP3T on Three UK. Been using crDroid Pie recently and i'm now able to make VoLTE calls. It comes and goes though. The options are in Settings and 'Enabled'. Phone Test shows VoLTE Provisioned. VoLTE icon show up in Status Bar.
Most of the time when i make a call i still see the Signal Icon drop from '4G' to 'H', but if i repeat dial a few times it latches on to VoLTE. I'm not sure why the inconsistency, but my 4G reception is weak and prone to disappearing entirely, so maybe that's why.
Three APN settings in ROM are same as always. No special 'ims' APN or settings.
@Eggstones
Edit: The package 'org.codeauora.ims' has been mentioned a few times for throwing up a 'Device is HD capable' Notification. I assume it's updates to this package that have enabled VoLTE?

It's working for me. Turned off Mobile, enabled Wifi calling and had no problem making a call. I think the necessary settings have been added to the ims packages that are commonly included in Pie custom ROMs now.

As i said, it's working on Pie ROMs. It's not going to start working for you unless you update. It's impossible to say if the same will apply when OOS Pie is released. Maybe, maybe not.

No. I have never tried to install one. Not sure how to do it. I'm aware of various guides but haven't taken the plunge. The furthest I got was rooting some old phones.

You wouldn't need to Root. Everything else is a doddle on this phone. You might give it some thought. The obvious thing is to find out what the differences are and weigh up the pro's and cons. If Battery life is your absolute priority then OOS might be better. If wifi calling is your priority then custom ROMs are the answer. Gotta decide where you might gain, and where you might lose out.
If you decide to go for it, this is a good guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/oneplus-5-unlock-bootloader-flash-twrp-t3624877
Of course that is for the OP5 so you wouldn't use the software linked in that thread, but the principal is the same. The equivelent software for this phone is available here. The guide gets you through the important steps of unlocking Bootloader and getting TWRP on your phone. Beyond that it's easy as Pie to get a custom ROM on your phone.
Just ask if you need help. I can link you to the files you'd need.
Thank you. I might give it a go later this week

Ok cool glad i asked before i did anything lol
Ended up calling t mobile and they had me reset my network settings then turn off my phone while they did something on their end. Turned my phone back on and boom no more problems. Didn't want to try root yet until there was a more stable one available. Thanks for all the help

Do you have a link to the CSC file your talking about. I could use it also. I just got my note 8 yesterday from the same place you picked yours up, thanks

yeah it's in my thread here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73858645&postcount=17
But I redid it last night after someone confirmed that they didn't even need the Note 8 CSC files, and I deleted out everything for other carriers so the new file is only about 120mb instead of 300-something.
I can post that up after work if you want to wait, uploading is blocked here at work for some reason.
Have to add that wifi calling still doesn't seem to be working, but VoLTE does since calling does not drop me from LTE. I have no menu settings for either still, but after doing a full reset, reflashing etc I have the wifi calling quick toggle but it doesn't seem to turn on all the way - the "on" color is light-grey instead of white like everything else (dark grey when off) and in the System UI tuner app, no icon is set for Wifi Calling or VoLTE.

Yeah it's in my Exynos T-mobile CSC thread but I've got a better smaller one now. I took a pack that @TEKHD made for the S8+ F variant and switched out the files with Note 8 T-mobile files but there is a little bit left to go to make WiFi Calling work on our N950N, VoLTE works, HD voice works, video calling works, but I'm still trying to figure out what's missing for WiFi calling. It's menu isn't even showing up yet.
Current flashable zip is only 88mb and I'm fairly sure whenever I figure out the remaining files that need to be copied over it won't be much larger.

Right. The better smaller one is the one I'm looking for. I already had downloaded the older/larger one, then I saw your post.
Is the smaller one available?

I'm about to do a factory Odin flash to stock and test the latest version - if it works properly I'll post it up with a link - though I don't want to step on anyone's toes since the core script and idea belongs to TEKHD.
Fair warning as far as right now I still haven't figured out why WiFi Calling is missing, I set up this the same way he has his S8+ pack for their F variant aside from adding a few framework files that I found referenced in the Tmo Wifi Calling apk that don't exist on a factory Korean N950N but are on the Tmo ROM, and my theory if this next attempt doesn't enable WiFi Calling is that the N950N is fundamentally either just missing more files that need to be in place for it to work and I haven't found them yet, or that it has different/incompatible versions of some files that the T-Mobile Wifi Calling needs to function.
In other words I have 2 more things to test, then I am going to try fully wiping, flashing an N950F-based ROM and apply the T-Mobile WFC pack to that, since the S8/S8+ options that enable it for those folks are for the F variants, not the N variant but the F and N have the same hardware.

Sounds good. I went through the same things with my Note 2 years ago. I figured it out and got WiFi Calling working.
Fwiw, I have no interest in Wifi Calling on my Note 8, as my signal (also T-Mobile) is always good, and I use Hangouts (or whatever) when I'm on Wifi, for free calling.
I don't have Note 8 yet, but will order soon from the same seller as you.
Do you have any other suggestions for getting everything up and running for T-Mobile (except WiFi Calling), or is simply flashing the CSC file?

If you don't care about Wifi Calling yeah I would say just root, custom kernel, and flash the CSC. You'll get VoLTE, HD voice, video calling etc

Hey guys, i created this topic as i didn't find one dedicated.
I have an issue with Wifi calling.
I bought a Note 8 from Samsung, so it is unlocked. On my notification screen i have a wifi calling button which is blue (so activated!?) but at the same time grayed out (i cannot interact with it). If i go to Phone app and Settings i do not have any Wifi calling option nor in the system apps as a service. So basically i dont have the wifi calling function and i really need it. My operator is Vodafone Romania and from what intel i gathered googling i called them and ask them to activate it (maybe push something to my phone, like a sms) but they said its got nothing to do with them. They said what i want is a setting in my phone and they only provide services.. so they cant help.
Can anyone advise me for this issue?? Many thanks

I'm no expert at this but I think the solution is to flash the specific SM-950F stock ROM for your operator (you'll need to use ODIN for that) because it will have the localized CSC customization that you are looking for
Settings>Advanced Calling > Wifi calling enabled is an option on my phone
mozell_rowell your phone is unlocked? I do not have this option on my unlocked phone.
I have discovered that the unlocked XEU firmware allows Wifi calling on EE(UK) but doesn't allow VoLTE, for that I needed EE's EVR firmware.
I had set up a new contract for my phone so Wifi calling didn't work for the first few days, causing a bit of confusion.
Anyway, you may be facing similar issues.

I'm on Vodafone UK and bought direct from Samsung and now have wifi calling
There was a threads on UK Vodafone forums about this problem it was not working even for phones direct from Vodafone
The solution is to call tech support at Vodafone and ask them to send the configuration to "update the provisioning" on your handset ... this is not same as mms or web configuration .
Good luck

The setting is hard to find. Go to settings>apps>system apps>WiFi calling and enable it there. If you have Verizon, it will NOT WORK. I learned this the hard way, and had to return my unlocked phone. Supposedly, wifi calling will work with most other services.

I tried that also. Been reading everything i can find on the web about it. Tried many things, unfortunately there is only one place where i have wifi calling (in my notification bar near other buttons but...i cannot interact with the button).
My disappointment is even higher now... I've called Samsung (in my country) asking them if its possible to flash my phone with a Vodafone branded ROM (i know i can do it myself but wanted to see what Samsung has to say in this matter). And...lol...they said they do not flash roms on request...lol. I think not many people know about wifi calling in my country. It looks its up to me to solve the issue but... naturally I'm nervous about it because i dont want to lose my guaranty.
From what i learned its only a matter of flashing a CSC from a branded ROM. Unfortunately i haven't flashed anything for 4 years now.... i am scared...and not afraid to admit it I did pay for this phone a lot of money

I am in the same boat as you, I live in NYC got an unlock phone thinking i'll get by with the HOTSPOT. But it doesn't work and I have no WIFI calling and no CAlling PLUS (sprint)
and would like to flash it to the stock ROM, so I don't have to go trough the procedure of returning this phone and getting a Carrier version.
Let me know how you make out. I can't find anything on youtube about this
I got probably a solution for some. You can install shorcut master (lite) from Play Store. Go to apps explorer and search for IMS settings scroll down to last one imssettingslauncheractivity and launc it; then you have to switch all those toggles to on under ims service switch. Restart phone...and for some now all those services will work including volte and wifi calling.

I agree fully with @pigglett post above. (last Paragraph.) ......
................
" The solution is to call tech support at Vodafone and ask them to send the configuration to "update the provisioning" on your handset ... this is not same as mms or web configuration ."
....................
I noted that you already did this.(speak to service provider)
Wifi calling,
however depends firstly,
if you phone
and Rom support this (yes... your phone should ? )
Then it depends on your service provider..!
to activate wifi calling. (even though you might see
relevant wifi button etc in settings)
I am with service provider Vodacom ( @ Vodafone)
Above, is the procedure i had to follow.
I have volte , and wifi calling enabled on my device.
I also tried all sorts of shortcuts /options.
No luck
I would advise you to speak to
someone in senior management (technical section) Otherwise you wasting your time.
Good luck
I have just come off a web chat with Samsnug Uk and the Samsung representative confirmed that their engineers have now confirmed wifi calling is disabled on UK handsets until they are happy that it's working ok, I had spoken with Vodafone prior to the call today who have enabled the function numerous times on my account but to no avail The Samsung representative said they would release an update for NUgget once they were happy it was working ok. I asked for a timeline and was told that information was unavailable.....

The majority of my calls are wifi, including several over the past day or two. I would be surprised if Samsung intervened in the manner described without attracting a significant measure of publicity.
The issue is Vodafone Romania does not support WI-Fi calling. The only networks in Romania supporting such feature are Digi Mobil (https://www.rcs-rds.ro/volte-vowifi) and Orange (https://www.orange.ro/tehnologii/apel-wifi/). I have the same unlocked dual sim Note 8 (pre-ordered form Altex) and am with the same carrier (Vodafone Romania). I enquired with them about the feature and their consultant told me that such feature is not yet supported. Moreover I inserted my wife's Digi Mobil SIM into the phone and it works unexpectedly well, the option in the notification panel became accessible and was able to use Wi-Fi calling. I know this is not exactly the response you were hoping for but unfortunately, at least for now, it seems we have to live with it.
Cheers!
I don't think you'll be able to enable it until the phone can detect that your provider is actually offering wifi calling as a service

Hello All,
I posted this in Samsung Community, but unfortunately none was able to help. I am hoping XDA members could help fix this issue.
I am facing a strange problem with my S21 Ultra Unlocked which was directly bought from Samsung. I had enrolled into OneUI 4.0 beta when I was in the US. I was using Sprint connection then.
I had to travel back to my home country (India) and I am using an Airtel sim card (LTE) here. Now, the strange problem is that LTE (data) works here fine. But, VoLTE is not working. The network changes to 2G for phone calls. I am assuming that the auto-switching bands which was introduced in OneUI 4.0 is causing the problem.
Using Smart Switch PC, I rolled back to One UI 3.1. VoLTE and WiFi calling started to work again. But, soon after I got update notification for One UI 4 beta. To confirm that it is indeed an issue with One UI 4, I installed it again. And as expected, I am not getting VoLTE or WiFI calling again.
Since I changed from Sprint to Airtel, I am not able to withdraw from the Beta program as well. I am getting the error "One UI beta features aren't available because your service provider has changed".
Also, I am not sure what the final One UI 4 will offer. For the first time in my life, I am seeing an Android upgrade causing my phone to not able to connect to VoLTE.
I am also attaching the screenshots of Phone Information. As you can see, in OneUI 3.1, VoLTE and WiFi calling are provisioned. But in OneUI 4, both are not available. I am assuming the issue is because IMS is not registered. But, I am not able to find how this can be fixed.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Thanks,
APS

A quick update - I updated to final version One UI 4 and the issue is still there. I am still not able to get VoLTE or WiFi calling in India.

No. I have started a new thread in Samsung US Community. Let's see if it reaches the right team who needs to fix this issue.
Since the issue was previously in the Beta version, I didn't get much support. Now, I can see more people facing the same issue since OneUI 4 final version is out.
Can you please provide Samsung members thread link here (or subject line which will help me find it).. I will reply with same issue

Yes. I've noticed this since the beta started, was hoping it would be fixed by the time stable is released, but looks like it isn't.
VoLTE/VoWiFi worked fine in Qatar with One UI 3.1 (US unlocked model) but is unable to activate on One UI 4.
It's a shame, but they probably won't fix it since it still works alright with US sims. Maybe it will be fixed in One UI 5 accidentally next year the same way it broke now, but don't hold your breath.
I would once again rollback to One UI 3.1 and wait for a stable Android 12 One UI 4.0 however it may never work with that device in your region. I won't be updating until they release a better version, still too many bugs. Your best option is sell it and buy your Service Provider's device, that's a permanent fix.

I am on stable One UI 4.0 now. Still it doesn't work.
I cannot sell a device that has such an issue now that I am in India. I will probably sell it once I am back in US if Samsung doesn't fix this issue before then.
Go to settings -->general> reset ----> reset network settings
And reboot after

Hey i was having this same problem, but seems to have disappeared since I installed SM-G998U rom. I didn't install Userdata and seems I didn't get any bloatware plus activation is still on. You can try.

That won't work, and is completely irrelevant to the issue at hand. This only applies to the unlocked US model (U1) - the OneUI 4 update misconfigures VoLTE for international SIMs.
U will work, but the branded firmware shouldn't be required, U1 is currently broken.
