More of a SIM provider question but does anyone have their 4a5g on o2 in the UK and does it work with WiFi calling? I've looked on their website regarding this and the 4a and the 5 are supported but nothing about the 4a5g.

Yes I have wifi calling. Unlocked BTU
I'm on EE
Wi-Fi calling
Did you have to enable calling on the S8? I checked an S8 (BTU) demo phone at Carphone Warehouse and could not find this option. What process did you go through with EE to get it working and are you happy with it? I cannot get a signal indoors and want to buy unlocked S8 to use use WFC.
Thanks, Mike
I am on BTU with Three - but WiFi calling is not enabled;
The XEU (UK unlocked from 3rd party seller) variant has a Wifi calling option in call settings. This works for EE but I had a new contract and Wifi calling didn't get enabled until a few days later. VoLTE didn't work at all on XEU with EE, so I installed the EVR firmware for that. Maybe try sticking the VOD firmware on yours?
For Vodafone all you need to do is call the support then ask for wifi calling issues.
Ask them to send you the configuration to update the provisioning and the wifi calling option will appear instantly.
One question to people in the UK with any Carrier unlocked Note 8. Is the RCS or Chat in your stock messages app?
Thanks
Another thing not to overlook (if you are struggling to find the settings) is where you're looking for it.
On my old N6P it used to be in the advanced WiFi settings but with the Note 8 its in the phone app. Took me a while to figure that one out!
I have sim-free Note 8 and wifi calling on EE.

Has anyone going WiFi calling working on your Nokia 7 plus? I'm on Vodafone in the UK but have also tried an ID SIM.
I have got WiFi calling enabled by Vodafone but the option doesn't appear in the phone. I'm moving to a house with no signal so this will be pretty essential.
Any ideas?
I'm on a TA-1055 with the July patch.
Wifi calling and Volte work on BT Mobile and I suspect EE.
Vodafone seem to only allow devices purchased from them with their firmware on and I don't think they do a Nokia 7 Plus therefore it doesn't work.

Thanks @Ollie2. I have called Vodafone several times and they've always directed me to their page which lists the approved phones (Nokia 7 plus isn't one!).
I've logged a complaint as deliberately turning the function off if you haven't bought the phone from them seems to be anti-competetive and, frankly, a bad business model. I'll be leaving them for EE as soon as my contract ends.
The whole wifi calling and Volte situation on Android is a complete mess. I think the blame lies with both networks and the manufacturers.
Since Android 6 there has been a mechanism to add the correct details for Volte and Wifi calling to work without having to have a custom firmware for each network but lots choose not to utilise it.
With security updates being releases by the manufacturers having to wait for the networks to change a test their firmware seems ridiculous and networks and manufacturers should work to a standard that just works. That said I imagine that is easier said than done.
EE seem to be better than the rest but they're not perfect either.
Anyone using WiFi Calling on the UK O2 network? Need to change provider & like most, O2's site is vague about supported models & firmware.
Can't make wifi calling work on rogers canada using Redmi Note 10 Pro Global Version. Was talking to Rogers tech support, to their credit they tried to activate this on my new Redmi Note 10 Pro Global (Tier 2 tech support), adding imei nr to whitelist, and entering RWC codes but to no avail.
I used these codes to bring up the options in the phone, and "activated" them (volte, wifi calling, prefer wifi calls).
VoLTE *#*#86583#*#*
VoWIFI *#*#869434#*#*
Rogers Tech prompted me to enter code: *#243203855# which is supposed to switch phone to RWC, but the MMI fails. At this point tech support ends, nothing else can be done (they say only phones purchased through Rogers are supported, plus all iphones, google, and samsungs).
So, I am wondering, is there a workaround that Rogers doesn't tell?
Hi.
Does anyone have volte/vowifi/5g working in Poland? Preferably with Plus carrier?
Mobile Vikings (Play) VoLTE is working. VoWiFi doesn't. I have no 5G plan.
Only use the Pixel on Play as that is the only network in poland that has a profile for the network included in the firmware.
VoLTE works fine in Play and T-Mobile (no wifi calling though).
Thanks. Yeah. I heard it works in Play and T Mobile. I was wondering what about Plus though, since I'm not planning to change carriers.
From what I've heard it doesn't work in Plus at the moment. Don't get your hopes up, they probably won't activate it anytime soon.
My current phone is not supported either but both WiFi calling and volte work fine. I'm still yet to find anybody with Pixel in Plus, just to be sure.
