Nexus 6 Outside USA CDMA Network Issues

I am having issues setting up my nexus 6 properly on a cdma carrier outside the US.
When android 5.1.1 is running on it, I can only do calls and text, However when i install android 6.0.1 it only have LTE data and no voice or text.
What could be causing this issue? If so, How can it be resolved?
Thank you.

Try this and see what signals your getting. LTEDiscovery in the playstore
Gotta put more pertinent info to do any help for you though

lte is only a data connection. your provider must have Volte. volte is Voice Over LTE. thats the only way to get voice on lte.

Ok, so there is no way to get it running otherwise until they setup volte on their system?

right.
but considering they have lte going, most likely they would have volte as well. some US providers, like verizon, have lte and volte, but you have to enable it in the providers settings. id call your provider to find out.

Great, they had mentioned an upgrade in about 2 months,but they didn't elaborate what it would be, only said until then it would work.

Glad you got help. The app is nice though. You can track you bands (which will tell you 3g,4g,LTE, etc.) And grab those modem logs. Anyway glad @simms22 helped you. He deff knows what he's doing

Which international version is best for tmobile?

I was thinking about getting an international phone but there are a few versions N930F/FD/S/L/K . Which would be most compatible. As I understand it, the downside is missing some of the bands for data. 3g is the problem I think. Can anyone confirm this or input any additional issues.

N930F/FD will definitely work on T-Mobile...
I think WiFi Calling and VoLTE won't work and you might miss a band or two but it will work just fine.

will you be able to keep the speed at 4g?

Isn't WiFi Calling a built-in feature of Android 6, now? I use it on my Nexus 6P and it has no T Mobile software at all.

I believe 4g is ok. The some bands for 3g have reduced speeds.

N930F has all Tmo bands. WIfi calling and VOLTE will not work with stock rom, but will if/when custom roms come out.

Did anyone go this route? I see couple for sell on ebay.

I dont' really care for wifi calling as I can forward my calls to Google Hangout/Voice.
can you clarify the need for VOLTE?

How to activate google hangout/voice I never used that feature since I have a note 3 and voice and data simultaneously is always been available thanks

Very odd as both worked in the S7 FD version I had for a bit. The requirement isn't bands but that the TMO sim has to be in sim1 not sim2. If it's in sim1 then both work. Also, VoLTE is hidden and always on if supported.

Reliance Jio VoLTE doesn't work with any custom ROM

Guys just curious to know if anyone able to use Jio without using Jio4GVoice app.
As plenty of ROMS support VoLTE (like PN) but still not able to call directly from dialer..
If anyone having knowledge then pls share it...as our loving Nexus 6 surely support VoLTE.

I'm having MOTO G PLAY 4, and I can make calls even I keep data off with Jio. As if we need to keep data on then it can be used in any 4G phone with Jiocall app..my main concern is to get calls without keeping data on..

I think nexus 6 doesnt support the certain band on which jio volte works i also own jio sim but it doesnt work

I don't know the super technical explanation for this, but it sounds like your carrier actually isn't using VoLTE properly. I have Verizon in the U.S. and on literally every ROM I've ever flashed VoLTE works fine as long as "Enhanced 4G LTE Mode" is enabled under the advanced mobile settings. VoLTE is a standardized thing, and it should be able to be toggled under that option "Enhanced 4G LTE Mode".
If you have to use an app Jio4GVoice it isn't true VoLTE. Right from the description of the app it says "Jio4GVoice enhances your non-VoLTE 4G phone with VoLTE capabilities. You can now use your non-VoLTE smart phone to make HD voice and video calls to any landline or mobile number anywhere in the world. You can also use these VoLTE features on your existing 2G/3G smartphones via JioFi."
Either your carrier needs to support true VoLTE, not some stupid additional app or you need to be able to install that app on third party ROMs. If it isn't eligible to be installed maybe you need to edit your build.prop or something like that.

I'm from Hyderabad,India. I have consulted Customer care for this voLTE issue., They are saying that Nexus 6 doesnt have voLTE by BUILT..So NO voLTE support...But their should be definite way of Flashing any built or editing to get voLTE definitely.. So If anyone has idea share here..Thanks

If you pull the SIM card from either the Redmi Note 3 or iPhone 6 Plus and put it in your Nexus 6 does VoLTE work (you probably have to enabled "Enhanced 4G LTE Mode")? If it works then it means your account or original SIM isn't provisioned correctly. If it doesn't work with the other SIM then it sounds like you're screwed unless you can get that app installed on a custom ROM. If it's available in the Play Store on stock but not on a custom ROM then try manually backing up the app (with something like Titanium Backup) and restore the app on the custom ROM. You also might be able to edit your build.prop to get the app to show up in the Play Store if it's not.

its the same sim i used with both devices ...i think the nexus uses band optimized for US or foreign countries but not for India

And you'd be correct. India uses a LTE band, band 40 I think, that neither Nexus 6 supports. You would have to move to the 6P if you need that band.

It doesn't support Nexus 6P too.. And I contacted Google for support.. They have said that.. After 1st quarter of 2017 they are launching a update for Pixel phone.. Which would give Volte to Pixel.. And they don't have any Interests in bringing Volte to old devices

Then I guess you're buying a Pixel.

Is it turned on in the*#*#4636#*#* menu under phone information? This pic is from my menu on 7.0. it's changed from the last time I looked in there.. however, there may be a great button that says, turn on volte provisioning flag. Or off of it is already on.

unlocked on Verizon

I'm not really new to this. I would always buy the phones, then root them when root was available. My question is if I buy the unlocked version and have it on Verizon, does anyone know what features won't work? Like I believe wifi calling on tmobile won't. But what about Verizon?

I THINK similarly, HD calling and Wifi calling won't work. I remember this from other discussions of unlocked Galaxy devices on Verizon.

Ok, thanks.... That is the problem I'm having cause I don't know about that part. Like I said, I normally just buy the phones then root them when root is available, but the s8 never got it or it took so long I didn't worry about it anymore. But I'm going overseas soon and would like to just swap sims and not worry about international charges

HD calling and volte should work. wifi calling a visual voicemail won't. check Samsungs page for compatibility.
my pixel 2 unlocked has EVERYTHING working on Verizon tho. dunno why.

Features you lose with unlocked phone on verizon network.
Visual Voicemail (VVM)
LTE Video Calling
Enhanced Address Book
VoWiFi (WiFi calling)
Family Base
Family Locator

that's worth it. no big deal except maybe wifi calling.

no way, cellular trash store will offer you phone with unlocked bootloader.

I have an unlocked S9+ on Verizon prepaid. Everything works fine including VoLTE and WiFi Calling. The only thing that doesn't is Visual Voicemail, but that's because I'm on prepaid. I'm sure the S10 will be the same.

Does Video Calling work on the unlocked s9+ on Verizon?

My unlocked note 9 on Verizon didn't have any features except HD calling and VoLTE. I worked with Verizon tech support forever, they couldn't figure it out. They indicated it was a Samsung issue. Samsung said it was a Verizon issue. I sold it on swappa then got a Verizon branded one because I need WiFi calling and texting.
I really hope my unlocked S10 plus isn't the same.

You could've flashed the VZ fw onto the U1. I converted my TMO Note to U1/XAA for better battery. Knox isn't tripped by signed packages.

I think Video Calling and Visual Voice Mail are for Post-Paid accounts only. I'm on Pre-Paid.
Plus I can use one of several other apps to video call, so I don't miss it. VoLTE and WiFi calling work great.

I can confirm that Wi-Fi calling IS indeed working on my unlocked S10+ on Verizon. Imagine that! The only thing I'm missing is Verizon's native video calling but that feature is so useless that it's not even worth mentioning.
Also, this thread is helpful describing all the features that work on Verizon:

WiFi calling

Pixel 2 owner here, and one of the things the P2 lacked was the ability to enable WiFi calling.
My house is unfortunately a deadspot for my carrier, however they all support WiFi calling where it uses my WiFi to provide me with my network access
Does anyone know off the pixel 4 supports this?

I buy my phone's outright from Google play store and sell my old devices on eBay. One year I bought a pixel from CPW but they are annoying with the warranty process, so went back to Google.
I also have a sim only deal on three, right now I'm on the unlimited data/texts/calls plan for 24 months. £10 first 6 months and £20 last 18 months of the contract. It averages out to £17.50 a month. Before this I was just on a rolling monthly for £23 a month everything unlimited.

Hmm, i think because 3 never actually sold the 2, they dont support WiFi calling on it. They sold the 3 and 4, hence why its supported
