I spoke to a network tech he said it would be available in April. He lied. Sprint purposely disabled the feature to force a new device purchase. If we can hack VOLTE on oreo and not pie its very revealing about their designs

While we're at it where is the Download Booster?

That's strange
On my Samsung galaxy so note I haven't been able to receive any data to surf the internet or send sms if I am on the call yet it says I have volte enabled??? So why won't it work??? The frustration with Samsung is real......... And sprint...... It says enabled volte provision whatever that means.

i have a unlocked sprint Note 9 & after pie update there is no VoLTE now. (I am trying to use it on JIO network in India).
Is there a way to Install Other Global ROM instead of Sprint ROM so that VoLTE can naturally be activated & not hidden or disabled ?

no. that is the folly of the North America devices.

Force it by using shortcut master and searching "enhancedLTE" and run it then enable that. Works on oreo. Not sure about pie

Mine is the N960U for the Note 9. I've tried countless times. Maybe for your model it does

The only time I ever have issues is while on combo.
Either way, acitivity manager works well or even phone info

I was gonna ask you how to do it. But i forgot i flashed all my n960u and g965u to their U1 firmware (ie n960u1. G965u1)
And shorcut master doesnt work well on pie u1 firmwares

Volte
Talk To Tech with customer support at Sprint today and he tell me that the note 9 will get a software update On October 24, 2019 for the note voice over LTE and other phones

Its almost January 2020. Still VOLTE remains at large.

Volte now on Note 9 Sprint
Took the UI 2.0 Update this morning and VOLTE on the Note 9 for Sprint

Confirmed note9 in maryland, talk and surf working outside of DC.
VoLTE appeared after latest update.

WTH is RCS?
Messaging system, Rich Communication Services, it's like iMessage, read receipts, typing notifications, etc, Android is working in Implementing it
---------- Post added at 01:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:23 AM ----------
Did a quick Google search and apparently you have it becuase Google released to a few people to test, lucky basta** lol
Got the same messenger update as well. If Google created a messenger that worked over wifi and sms like iMessage, that would be great.
Says only 6p and pixel xl. For sprint t-mobile and att. Verizon is not capable..... Surprising usually Sprint users like myself always get the back end of things it's finally nice to see another carrier this time.
Well I'm on Shamu not 6p and I received these features
You may be able to "get it" by turning off battery optimization for the app in Settings - Battery - 3 dot menu then Battery Optimization - select Google Messenger and "Don't Optimize".

Only on Sprint now.
Today, Google has announced that it is launching Rich Comunications Services (RCS) on Sprint, making this the first carrier launch from Google. RCS Messaging on Sprint, powered by the Jibe RCS cloud platform, will bring new features to SMS, like group chat, high resolution photo sharing, read receipts and more. To make use of this upgrade, users on Sprint need to grab the latest Messenger update. Further, new Android devices from Sprint coming next year will come with Messenger preloaded as the default SMS and RCS app.

Pixel 4XL Chat Features on Google Messages

Why chat features are enabled on the Pixel 3 3XL and 3a and not on the 4 and 4XL?
I have no idea. I am also unable to use it with Bell Mobility.

Messages on my P4XL just let me know chat features are available.
Someone on Reddit figured out how to enable RCS on any Android phone on any carrier!
https://www.reddit.com/r/UniversalP...a2v8r?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share
You'll need an app called Activity Launcher: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.szalkowski.activitylauncher
I suggest you turn off WiFi before setup
Steps:
1.) Enroll in Messages Beta and install
2.) Download Activity Launcher
3.) Clear the data of 'Carrier Services' and force stop 'Android Messages.'
4.) Open Activity Launcher
5.) Tap 'Recent Activities,' and in the menu choose 'All Activities.'
6.) Look for 'Messages'
7.) Tap it, then scroll until you find 'Set RCS Flags'
8.) After pressing it select 'ACS Url"' and in the menu select 'http://rcs-acs-prod-us.sandbox google.com/.'
9.) Select OTP Pattern, and in the menu click, YourlsMessenger\sverification\scode\sis\sG-(\d {6}).
10.) Click Apply
11.) Follow setup in Messages. Will take around three minutes.
IT WORKED!!! After several attempts it worked by joining the Google Messages beta program

Just did this and it works perfectly. Had my wife on an iPhone text me while airplane mode was on with WiFi on and was able to send/receive on AT&T.

T-Mobile. Apparently Sprint was the only carrier that had Pixel 4s RCS ready out the box in the US.
It also works on older devices. It worked on both my LG V20 and V10.
This also worked for me on P2XL on ATT
**** the carriers "NEW NEW RCS initiative" that will probably take for ****ing ever and be the most ****ty app.

Maybe that correlates with the eSIM setup that shows AT&T and Sprint first?

The instructions provided on Reddit worked for me to enable Chat on Bell Mobility in Canada. Now if I could only test it with somebody...
Doesn't work for me, tried on 4g only and on wifi, no go
I got it enabled on my V30 (waiting on my 4XL oh so orange after selling my 3XL) but I'm kinda confused about it. If someone is on an iPhone, does it actually work? When I send a message it just says sent SMS

That's something that you'll have to ask your carrier. People with some US carriers were having issues with both features as well. Some people have it on and some people have it off yet are on the same carrier. It's not a phone issue but a provision on your account by the carrier. Contact them and see if they can turn it on on their end.

i asked my carrier to make sure it is working and they told me it is enable.
i think there is another solution which is by root.
The Pixel is support VoLTE and my carrier also support VoLTE but we need Google push update profile for to support in my country
Sent from my Pixel 4 XL using Tapatalk
i want to know as well, in Thailand PIXEL is never officially sale here. Even root witg magisk what i can get is force enable by module setting is already there and i turn on it. Still when i check with 4636 the provision is greyout and info is all unavailable also ims shows no registered. If any dev able to force it via the systems?
I'm on fi and it's not checked.
I'm not sure if it's enabled or not.
Same here, got it with my T-Mobile SIM card.
i just try to work around with guys trying to get it work at pixel2 thread, the dev there successfully created magisk to flash on pixel4 it come out like it should work. The mdn of my (Thailand) carrier is flash to my sytems properly but still the ims is still not provisioned, anyone would go and try to workaround there so that we can get it work
the thread and module is here https://forum.xda-developers.com/pi...le-volte-unsupported-carriers-t3892659/page11
Please try and post result so we can go further. Thanks

Thanks for your result, we might need some more workaround to make it work. May be pixel4 has something different, my guess is may be because of Esim

One UI 2.1

I haven't install One UI 2.1 on my N960N yet. I was just wondering how it fares compared to One UI 2.0? As the most of you know the issue I had was with the Secure Folder and updating Wechat via Google on it.

well don't know about 960N but on my 960F so far its almost same as 2.0. only few new feature updates and the new deep sleep feature. all apps works well. no issue with secure folder aswell. so far i don't feel any battery improvements tho! im thinking of during factory reset and do a fresh start to see if that improves anything.
I just update my N960N to the latest version of Android 10 with OneUI 2.1 and so far it seems to have fixed some of the issues I had with the first release of Android 10 for the Note 9. Not sure about the Secure Folder as I have yet to test that.

You would probably need to wait a few weeks for the AI to learn your habits before the battery performance improves
How are you guys getting this update? It doesn't appear to be available to me, yet. I'm on the USA T-mobile SM-N960U.
It has also not arrived on my N960F here in Bulgaria. Month is not over though so I'll just wait, no hurry.

N960U/U1/9600 is snapdragon model and probably 2.1 update will get in july or August
For now only Exynos models N960F/N960N are getting this update
My ( Xfinity Mobile) N960U got 2.1 this morning.
The first thing that I noticed was when I fired up Messages I was greeted with a dialog informing me about chat via text using Google's services.
Does that mean that Samsung is finally enabling RCS?

I never heard of Frija, I just looked it up and installed it. It was no help. I'm guessing the update for my phone hasn't been released yet. I'm on the T-mobile USA variant. Frija gave me the version I already had, which doesn't include 2.1.

Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G (SM-G781B/DS) - eSIM

Hey, i bought this phone because of "eSIM support" which normally this phone could have and a lot of websites say it have eSIM support. Normally Snapdragon 865 is compatible with eSIM but Samsung doesn't released update to enable it.
I found some clues that with Note 20 Ultra was possible to active eSIM without Samsung update (at the end they got eSIM update) link here.
I have root at my S20 FE 5G so i tried too some mods but it doesn't work at the end.
1. Decoded CSC
2. Changed <CscFeature_RIL_SupportEsim>FALSE</CscFeature_RIL_SupportEsim> to TRUE
3. After reboot got message "Search for your new mobile plan?"

So i don't have any extra option to add QR Code, here is no "menu below" and i don't see any eSIM menu in settings.
Tried to add EuiccService.apk to system/priv-app/EuiccService which was success recognized but didn't help.
Is here anyone who got working eSIM support with this phone?
hmm, maybe if you can find someone with e-sim functionality working (and maybe root) they could run logs before activating the feature. help you run down all the processes, libraries and whatnot involved.
I have S20 5G with eSIM but no root. Logcat works without root so i can get some logs.
I added EsimClient.apk and EuiccService.apk to priv-apps looks like those apps are working but further problem with SimModel.
Someone know which app or something give this log?
"SimModel: [C] esim is not supported"
One step further ;]
SimModel give another things and now can i use QR code...
don't get me wrong, I know nothing at all about android but I'm thinking this kinda sounds like there might be a prop file somewhere too.
esim: false
Did you get the esim to work?

No :/ I use further 2 x SIM no space for my MicroSD.
S20, S21 series use SN100U (with PN547 NFC contriller) SoC for esim works (I don't know which SoC used on S22 series). I asked 4pda users what NFC chip built in their devices using Device info HW app. Then I got that: 4G used PN547, 5G used sec-nfc driver (both versions based on Snapdragon). And I have 5G versions, And too have sec-nfc. But, through logcat I got messages from s3nsen4 nfc SoC. On Samsung official site writen, that SoC support eSIM, but I don't found firmware for this. And sorry for English, I study it yet
Did one of you manage to get eSIM running?

It was on April's Fool Day from what I can gather! https://www.xda-developers.com/android-13-esim-report/
Such a ludicrous situation Samsung, are you listening?
[EDIT]: Maybe it wasn't a joke after all https://source.android.com/docs/core/connect/esim-mep.
But manufacturers (Samsung) will still need to integrate it / enable it, when 13 is released some time soon... can we hope?
Did anyone get this to work or have any updates?
now that android 13 is out on this phone..
not esim, but flash android 13 and now dual sim is working on t-mobile.
