I bought a 2nd hand X3 Neo in UK. It works fine there but in Asia (currently visiting Goa) it needs VolTe option enabled to make or receive call. Unfortunately, the 'use mobile data during calls' is greyed out. The description of that option mentions VolTe. Can't see any other place to set volte.
Any help highly appreciated.

Hi, I recently purchased a Nokia 8 on Amazon (Italy, unlocked, TA-1004 EU6) and I am on the latest build (00WW_4_390). My carrier is TIM.
In the network settings I don't have the enhanced LTE toggle for HD Audio on call. Like someone else, if I search it in the settings, it appears among the results, but refers to the menu without its voice. In the hidden menu (*#*#4636#*#*) provisioning VoLTE is enabled and both data and voice are indicated on the LTE network.
Among the options of my SIM I have enabled the service "TIM Voce 4G" (aka "TIM Voice 4G"). So on my line the VoLTE is enabled and the Nokia 8 fully supports it.
I know that the carrier must also support the specific device, so I ask: someone in Italy managed to activate it? If yes with TIM or other carriers?
I did the initial setup of my Nokia 8 without the SIM for the issue of the alleged block of updates from the carriers (I don't think that things are like that and I explained why in the appropriate topic) and I wouldn't want this to affect the correct configuration of some carrier services.
Hello everyone.
As you know from the post above, I have a problem with enabling VoLTE on my Nokia 8.
Until a few days ago I found myself with a smartphone with full support hardware and software at VoLTE and with the relevant option active on my SIM, but my carrier (TIM) hadn't enabled the Nokia 8 to use this technology on its own network.
Now TIM has enabled the Nokia 3, 5 and 8 at VoLTE, but the option to activate HD calls continues to be inaccessible.
I also tried to subscribe to the beta program, but the situation is the same with both Android 8.0 and Android 8.1 (january security patches on both).
TIM has also reset the network, but they say they have no problem. On my Nokia I also reset the network options, as well as move the sim on the second slot, without success.
Are you aware of any way to force the display of that item? Once I remember that on Nexus 6P it was enough to disable VoLTE provisioning and disconnect from the network, or something similar.
Thank you all and sorry for the double post.
Hello Friends,
Having Googled Up & Down accross the Interwebs, I am frankly Stumped.
The UK Mobile Network EE offers the P8 Lite (2017 Model) (PRA-LX1) with Wifi calling directly.
Until recently they had web posts saying this phone is WiFi Calling compatible whether purchased from EE or indirectly.
However this is not the case. My Version was purchased unlocked, from Carphone Warehouse UK.
I have force updated the firmware to PRA-LX1C432B191.
I cannot get the Wifi Calling option to Display (Or VOLTE)
However B191 firmware is supposed to support VOLTE & WiFi Calling.
Suspect either some custom apps or configurations exist on the EE provided phone that is not on My handset.
I am Happy to root, Mod, Unlock and try to enable this option.
Where do I start looking? Could you tell me where I can find the right firmware,
or mods, hacks or changes to enable this feature?
Why would the EE shipped phone have wifi calling but the unbranded unlocked version not?
It is the very highly strange situation.
Cheers friends, looking forward to your insights and suggestions.
WiFi calling may need to be enabled on your account by EE tech support, this used to be the case a few years back when I was a tech support agent for them.
Confirmed, wificalling is enabled on my account,
They also did a network refresh on my account.
Still cant see the option.
*bump* anyone can help me enable wifi calling feature on this device?
the rom should support it
I'm in a similar situation, although I am still stock at LX1C432B115. Can I ask how you force updated to 191?
I had a look at an EE handset and that had the build PRA-LX1C440B163 and the wifi calling menu items were visible. I had wondered whether flashing that (or the latest ee build C44?) onto the phone was possible\the easiest way to get it working.
Congstar (D1) now offers VoLTE and WifiCall. It works in most phones I tested, like Samsung, Apple, Sony, Xiaomi, Motorola.
It does NOT work on my P30 Pro.
How to fix that?
to make it work, you must activate it on the phone, in the mobile data settings. for my part, I had first to ask my operator to activate the service too.

The Service ist activated by Congstar. IT works on many phones. But mit in P30 Pro.
The Options in mobile settings are Not there.
I know the Options from other phones. Like on my old Xperia xz2 compact. The Options are there, and I can Turn it on. I then call by VoLTE and can use WifiCalling. VoLTE works on the xz2c with my Provider Congstar.
That is because Sony has These VoLTE Options "Always activated". Huawei only Shows the functions for Providers that are in the internal list on the phone. That list has to be updated by Huawei.
I don't know if that will help you, but before, I had a lg g6 with the same provider that I currently have. Volte worked well without having to ask my provider anything. But with the p30 pro I had to call him to activate the service for this device.
Huawei updated by system Update. Now, VoLTE and WiFi Fall both Work.
With Update to emui 10.1 Volte an WiFi call works with German Providers like Congstar an fraenk etc
Hello all,
During my tour in India in 2018 I bought an A6 DUOS (Made in India). I now have this phone back with me in Europe and I read I could have VoLTE on my carrier (Vodafone Romania). Officially, A6 is even listed on their website as VoLTE and VoWifi capable. However, I don't see the option anywhere, and even in the hidden menu the option for VoLTE provisioning is grayed out. The phone is up-to-date. Wondering if there are any option to fix this.
Any ideas are welcome, thank you very much.
Hello
I just got this phone and set it up. Its a Global version 13.0.4 SKDMIXM.
I am on TMoblie USA - the phone is working great on LTE and 5G .
I am not able to see the Network preference under wifi calling where is can select Prefered Wifi Calling.
It appears that its running on default Prefered Cellular - because I can only see the VoLTE symbol on top.
Can someone help me in fixing this configuration to select Prefered Wifi Calling ? TIA

Hello, I'm using a 11T Pro Dual SIM India model with India SIM in Slot 1 and TMO SIM in Slot 2.
I have not found the specific setting to make Wifi Calling "Preferred" but, my phone does indicate Vo WiFi even when I have Wifi connected and Mobile Data turned on too once Wifi Calling is enabled as below.
Apparently the Voice Over WiFi Settings (at least here on my phone) only show up for SIM 1, does not show for SIM 2.
Attached are sample screenshots where the Settings are under SIM 1.
Steps to get there-
Settings > SIM cards & mobile networks > Click on SIM 1
All the way down, last Setting is "Wi-Fi Calls" to enable "Make calls using Wi-Fi".
Hope this helps.

Operators can disable this menu if they want to lock you onto Wifi preferred or cellular preferred. Does this only happen with this phone or does it also happen with the SIM in another Android phone?

There's a possibility of TMO-US not supporting WiFi calling on the Xiaomi 11T (Global), perhaps.
Although, I have been using various Unlocked phones (Nokia & Samsung) on TMO-US for the past few years & have practically never had issues with WiFi calling on any. Shall have to test it once I'm back. Won't be for some time.
Is your phone on the latest firmware? Try updating it to check if there's a new update available
which hopefully can solve your issue.
Couple of options to test, in case you have not already tested them-
a) leave WiFi Calling Enabled then disable the VoLTE feature and check if WiFi calling works?
b) disable Mobile Data, WiFi Calling enabled with WiFi connected and check if WiFi Calling works.
c) some users have had to ensure their E911 address is correctly in place on the TMO account too.

I had a working One Plus 6 - so I know TMO has VoWifi - I use it a lot due to poor reception at home .
The current workaround to force VoWIFI is
Turn On Airplane MOde
Turn ON WiFi only
then it works in VOWIFI with out any issues
I know I am missing a menu Item that can toggle this setting . I would prefer having that setting but its not a breaker for now . The phone works with all the Network features of TMO , LTE , 4G , 5G etc . No visual voicemail thats all.
Thanks

Thanks - this code is what got me to where I am now . I think from other articles - the mbn config may require some tweaking - but it refuses to give me access to it when i use *#*#663368378#*#*
Same access issue here too.
Wish you luck.
Pinging to see if there is a soln. in future.
