VoLTE/Wifi Calling through Root? - Asus ROG Phone Questions & Answers

I'm not sure if this post is in the right section but just wondering if anyone that has already rooted the ROG Phone has tried the Magisk Module VoEnabler to see if it helps out in anyway?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-v4-volte-enabler-t3649613
Even if it doesn't work for your specific carrier does it at least enable the option or allow the use of the 800mhz for internet? As for a phone that is advertised that is is VoLTE compatiable I've noticed on mine it's completely disabled in the firmware. Can't even toggle it in the Android Hidden Menu. I'm a Three UK user and just wondering what the chances are of ever getting support for this.

if you go to ASUS's Zentalk forum this is a request by MANY users that own the phone. But we doubt it will be added.

[Q] Apps dont find 3g modem - is there a hack or a line in config file?

Moin,
Want to get ussd codes to work with archos g9 and 3g modem from archos, but apps complain that there is no sim card or 3g modem.
It is for example aAlditalk app which is important for me to work. Is there a hack to make think it has telephony unit or 3g modem or ussd function (which i really have) ?
Greetings
Have a nice weekend.
Waiting for ICS and SDE

Just out of curiosity, do this :
Settings > Applications > Development ... and activate "Mock Telephony"
After that, reboot and try again... Let me know if it helped

This option had i already activated.
Tested it again, turned it off, turned it on, rebooted, no chance.

I'm guessing it's an application issue then... probably the only thing that can be done is to wait for an update of the app...
It may be system related issue, it's not a 'phone' build. I've noticed in a logcat posted somewhere here that android.provider.telephony is redirected to android.provider l.settings

Hi,
i just purchased the 3G stick for my Archos 80.
Any news on this issue?
I know that standard telephony function would never work, because it is a data modem only.
It would be very nice though to hack some parts to get USSD working.
EDIT: Did some research here... guess what... USSD is supported by the Archos 3G stick.
Unfortunately there's nothing out of the box for sending USSD commands to the stick and receiving them in a nice pop-up message.
Anyway, i'll have a look into the RIL API and stuff, maybe it is possible to write a small app to manage this.
Concerning the App mentioned above, i guess there's no easy way to get it working, because there's no complete telephony support.
If someone would like more info on that... ask
Maybe some prop file or similar could be tweaked.
EDIT: The board's default prop has an entry ro.board.has_gsm which is actually set to no.
I wonder if it would change something (at least for some apps).
Any information would be useful.
EDIT: Did anyone try USSD Dialer from the market?
EDIT2: Tried it myself... it does not work and don't like it... it's build for smartphones only.
Cheers,

WiFi Notification Issues

Long-time lurker, first post. I've been looking for an answer to this one since Friday.
I got my Verizon Galaxy S3 on Friday and was immediately irritated by the ongoing WiFi notification. Monday rolled around and I rooted and disabled the notification per the instructions posted to Droid-Life, awesome.
I've come across another irritating pop-up notification that I cannot seem to disable. The message says that a known WiFi network is available and asks if I want to connect. It gives me the options OK, Connect always, Not now Remind me later. It happens only when I'm near an AP that I've connected to before. I have all notifications I can find disabled for WiFi. What I really want to know is, how the heck is it checking available WiFi networks if WiFi is OFF?
If this has been answered before, please point me in the right direction and I'll see myself out.
I can't seem to post screen shots yet, not enough posts. I'll see if I can get moving haha.

theres a thread about this already. short answer without searching. Get anycut, create hidden menu for wifioffloading and disable it. as for the notification theres an edit somewhere here on how to do it. but you need root.

How unfortunate we need Root. So there is definitely no way to get rid of this with an app, without rooting? Even a paid app?
Is there any danger with root and updates? I mean if we undo the root, then we update, right? Then we re-apply root? Will the phone look exactly the same with root if we un root? I have Verizon. I read something about this "triangle counter" or whatnot. To get root do we currently have to flash an entire rom or is there an easy trick like most phones? Sorry I've not rooted before. If someone just points me in the right direction even I'll read up on it. Thank you.

No Mobile Network option on Samsung Galaxy S6 Sprint SM-G920P

I rooted the galaxy and unlocked it with idoneapps. It was successful, but now I can not get to Mobile network option. There is no option in the connections list. I also tried to edit quick settings and I see the option. I tick to enable it, yet it is not there either. I have tried a few random fixes like the dual view fix or whatever that is called.
Does anyone have a solution for this? Thanks.
I had a issue with the same app now my mtp will NOT work no matter what ive flashed every 5.1.1 stock firmware placed mtp apk in root folder and set permissions all i can do now i charge no matter what pc or cable. The only thing i know to do in your scenario is reflash stock firmware and re root. I know thats a long pain staking process but im 85 percent sure it will return everything to normal my advice is dont use idoneapps again.

From what ive seen that isnt related to idoneapps. Take out current sim. Go to settings click activate device or use old sim and let hands free go through the motions. Then turn off reinsert good sim. This has worked for mr on various phones

Advanced calling is officially online

No need to do the workarounds anymore, if you're on Lollipop now just go to Advanced Calling and activate it!

cool I'm going to delete my workaround if I can figure out how. Wonder if it's 509... And I just read a post on here about stagefright 2.0 ****ing bullshat so our phones are still vulnerable to specialy modified mp3 and mp4- so someone can do remote executions. but so is everyone elses phone...
I do hope this is something positive, not getting to hopeful just yet, have not seen any indication of a OTA yet.

What differences do you hope in seeing in the OTA from what's already out?

Final build, did you say the or someone else that the .ftf R4C still didn't have the Stagefright patch? I do hope the final release has that patched and the new Stagefright 2 patch as well.
I have beta tested Winders/Linux and other software for years and the final release is well final, may be some bugs still but most are squashed and gone.
This is not my first pony ride, although I have not posted on XDA I have been active in the Android community since the first Moto Droid, just not on XDA.
Have used Linux since Red Hat then Corel days, Google it.
Thanks for the heads up. I was able to activate it from the My Verizon app on stock KitKat. I've never flashed lollipop either

that's interesting so we could have had this all along. I thought kitkat didn't support advanced calling natively that's what I've read and I know our phones don't have dual radios so I don't get it I want to revert back to test it but I will take your work for it. Do you actually have 4g when on a call now. and can you use the Internet while on the phone.

We wouldn't have had this all along because in the my verizon app if you tried to add the advanced calling feature to a line with an xperia Z3v you'd get an error saying it wasn't a volte capable device. It referred you to a list of volte capable devices and the z3v wasn't on the list. I do however do not understand how advanced calling would work on kitkat.... for one thing they're missing proprietary libs for HD video calling as well as the apps and the IMS bootstrap to keep advanced calling on between reboots, but hey if it's working for people on Kitkat that's wonderful news, they deserve it. I'd take it as a good sign that they finally got around to adding volte in their systems, to me that says the OTA is greenlighted and we're just waiting on the beginning of the roll out. What's disappointing is that Verizon is giving us 5.0.2, but hey it's better than what we've had. I'm grateful.
I can confirm mine is working on 5.0.2.
Has anyone else been unable to mute calls that are not HD Voice?
Today I deactivated advanced calling. I believe it was causing excessive noise during Bluetooth calls. I never had Bluetooth issues before Lp and advanced calling. 4.4 was flawless for me
Added advanced calling to my stock 4.4 phone, but I don't get simultaneous voice and data during calls. ?

Not quite -- I'm on stock 4.4 and I've enabled the feature with Verizon, but after rebooting my phone I still don't see an option to turn on Advanced Calling features. (Am I missing them in the menus? Where are they?)

That's the lollipop part. The advanced calling is it's on tab in the OS settings.
Anyone else have issues with activating advanced calling. I select the HD calling in the settings. I get a message that indicates I already have HD calling and that I should restart my phone. Restart and same message pops up when I get a call that I don't have data while on a call.

Solution: had to delete HD calling from Verizon, waited over night then added HD calling from the settings menu. Don't know how many times I've added and removed advanced calling before but waiting seemed to do the trick.

How do i deactivate advanced calling. I have had tons of issues since activating it. I still get a message when i get calls saying no data available, i also cannot enter credit card numbers. I have not been able to successfully enter a card number even once since activating it, every time i am very careful an hit the right keys but it says thats not a working card. I have had no issues what so ever doing that before activation of advanced calling. Is there a way to remove or deactivate it completely or at all?

Just turn it off. There's a toggle in settings... If you're on lollipop.. Which if you're not, I guess you could do it in my verizon add remove features
Well i never actally turned any of the toggles on. I just activated advanced calling thru my verizon app. Since i activated it, i have not been able to enter a credit card number sucessullly, i know that advanced calling feature was the change that made my poblem. Becouse before activating it i never had an issue, but within a couple hours of activating it, i tried to enter my credit card number over phone call and every single time (ive tried so many times since the activation of advanced callig) every time it tells me sorry, thats not the right number. Ive tried with multiple cards, and the same result evey time. I just want to know, besides turnig off the toggles in settings( that i never used or turned to on). Is it possible to deactivate it thru verizon or delete it from my account. Can someone help me figure it out. It has been a huge inconveniance for me. The only toggles i have in settings are one for hd voice and one for video calling, and on above those 2 that is not labled and i figured was to turn advanced calling on or off. I never used it. When i first activated it ,it was done through my verizon app, an i didnt realize till reading more later on here , that there was section in settings for advanced calling. By that time i was already trying to remove it due to my card number entering issues, so i never turned any of the toggles on. Anyone know of anything that i could do to remove the feature completely.

Couple questions - V30

US998 unlocked and rooted.
For a completely offline device, is it possible to disable gps amd cell radios in the firmware and/or flash an incompatible gps version and still have the device boot? Something that makes it impossible to enable them without reflashing the entire phone.
Can the service provider be prevented from pushing app updates? Changed providers and an emergency alert app was installed whereas before it was hidden away in settings.
Thanks!
You can try flashing an incompatible modem, which is the communications driver for WiFi, cell and, I think, GPS services. People occasionally do it accidentally and lose services until they flash the correct modem.
Perhaps an easier solution would be to see if you can find an app that can do it, though... either a business app that can disable all communication for security purposes or a parental control app so that parents can restrict usage on their kids' phones. Either way, you might be able to lock it with a password so that you can enable it from time to time for emergencies or to update the apps through the Play Store. I know that you said that you want it to be impossible to undo without reflashing the phone, but perhaps a less drastic solution would suit you better.
As for the service provider pushing app updates, if you disable the cell service by either of the above methods, they shouldn't be able to do that. You can also simply remove the SIM card, instead, if you're using one. Finally, you can install a 3rd-party ROM, like Havoc-OS, which I'm using. You might consider that if you really just want nothing to do with service provider or LG bloatware. There's no need to disable communications and make an offline-only device if all that you're really trying to do is make your service provider and LG leave your device alone.

Good options. The only caveat would be NOT to use T-mobile H932 modem. It is so incompatible it will brick a US998. For US998, flashing one of the H930 variant modems (H930, H930G, H930D, H930DS) over US998 would probably do what he wants. Very good suggestion.
I can't remember where there's the TWRP flashable modem files are, but I know they exist. Because some LOS users have had use them.

I'm guessing he's trying to prevent any digital footprint for his own reasons and from something being enabled on the backend without his knowledge. Like how it's been proven turning off "location services" still doesn't prevent Google from tracking you...

ChazzMatt is correct.
Want to confirm that gps is part the main radio firmware?
Probably not advisable but can the modem file be successfully edited?
