Hi,
Some users have the VOLTE option in sim card settings. It should be under or above "data roaming" option.
However, the VOLTE option is missing for me. When I make calls, it drops to 3g service. I am using t-mobile in USA so VOLTE should be working and supported. My concern is that t-mobile plans to block devices without VOLTE in April 2022, so if i cannot figure it out, i would have to sell the device
Any ideas how to activate it?
I suggest 3 things. Had this issue (but not in US) and these helped VOLTE show up again. Try them in this order and if VOLTE shows up, great, no need to do the rest.
First thing:
Go to "Developer options" and set "5G Network Mode" to "NSA + SA Mode".
May help depending on ISP setup. No clue what TMOB is up to. This allows maximum compatibility, but MAY drain battery faster -- I don't know the full impact of this setting. Note that it often reverts to "default" when rebooting.
Second thing:
Settings > SIM card & mobile data > (pick active SIM card) > toggle 5G off then on again
(On this page I previously had VOLTE option, but it mysteriously disappeared)
Third thing:
1) remove SIM card(s)
2) reboot phone
3) reinsert SIM card(s)
4) reboot phone
Depending on country, sometimes carriers/towers aren't super reliable.
Good luck!
Hey thanks for the suggestions.
First thing: When I go to developer options, that 5g option is greyed out for me. I cannot select it.
Second thing: I only have 4/3g/2G toggle. I did download an app called "force LTE" which activates 5G.
Third Thing; Didn't work.
Thanks for trying to help me. Are you in USA by any chance?
Hi,
I don't think this will work for you, since you don't have this option
How to navigate the VoLTE feature in your realme devices? - realme (India)
VoLTE feature,VoLTE function
www.realme.com
Maybe try to update to the latest rom or reinstall it.
And if still not working you have to contact realme technical support.
Don't know whether it's because the change of 5G Network Mode. The LTE icon doesn't show up, but I do notice the voices in phone calls are louder and clearer.
Does the HD1 icon mean volte?
Propably HD Voice
Well, not in the US but I boot the phone, updated it to last one, reboot. So I didn't check that option since the beginning but I can see it under the SIMcard setting.
I didn't go in dev or else.
My second sim doesn't have that option though.
Hope you fixed it with an update.

Damn, sorry pal. I really hoped that would work for you.
Can you try borrowing a family member/friend's SIM card for 5 mins from their phone and seeing if LTE is greyed out with their card too? If so you can assume it's the phone and not ISP that's being weird...
And nah, I haven't lived in the US in years!

I was wondering where the toggle to only use 2G networks has been moved since i can't find it on the usual location of Settings-> Wireless and network -> Mobile Networks
In my last phone (and to my knowledge, on all android phones) there is an option there to only use 2G networks. But on my Galaxy S2 it's nowhere to be found.
Has this been moved to another location? Has it been disabled?
This is a screenshot of what i see:

}
Hold the power button and select data connection.
There is no option called "Data connection". There is an option called Data Network mode but that simply turns off mobile data connections. This is the screenshot:
From settings select "Only GSM". That corresponds to 2G.

Another way to do is use the code *#*#4636#*#* >> Phone Information >> choose the network mode you prefer.
You can set it in Settings > Wireless & Networks > Mobile Network > Network Type > GSM Only
Or just download Extended Controls and use the widget
EDIT: At least it's there on mine
Hmm so it appears that my phone doesn't have that option. Maybe because it's carrier locked our something? It's a 3 phone.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
I think "3" is only 3G, nothing to switch
I meant my phone is from the carrier 3 in the UK. Maybe they put their customized ROM or something on the device and I am missing the option to switch to GSM only.
The *#*#4636#*#* option works but is not a viable solution. It takes too long to go to the option. Plus I will surely forget the number. Any other suggestions?
Get unbranded firmware?
Well I don't want to change my entire firmware just for that. If the need arises (could be very soon) I will but for now I was hoping for another solution
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
All Three network phones tend to have this function removed as by default they are a 3G network. Anytime you roam onto 2G it is using another network (I believe it's Orange) and costs Three money.
The 3 network in the UK only operates on 3G, so there is not GSM/GPRS/Edge option available on their network.
Same problem, semi-solution
I also have a samsung mini bought from 3 uk which I unlocked to use another sim and a sim in Africa (where I have to get a full day's battery).
I put the *#*# etc. number as a contact. I can't call directly from the contact, but typing *#*# is enough to bring the number up so I can copy.
I understand why three did it, but it is annoying.
I hope that helps, but if you found a better way, please share!
Use this
thanks,also looking for this

Since latest update my WiFi calling not working.
It wasn't even showing on settings
I contacted Huawei at twitter they told me to reset my network settings which I did.
It brought back the WiFi calling on settings its on but its not working.
Is there any way to get it fixed?
WiFi calling is the most important thing for me as I don't get signal at home at all.
Latest update brought a lot of problems they gotta fix it ASAP.
Fingerprint doesn't work most of the time
Vibrate itself, non stop notification sound.
What version?
Maybe you need to factory reset your phone with doing a backup before [emoji106]

I believe it is because carrier's settings on huawei fw.
There is a workaround through launching vowifi roaming activity through a 3rd party apps.
Huum mine vowifi was also working no more on LYA C432 B310 until I added this :

I can only get the vowifi icon if I'm not in cellular range but have wifi, you can test this, put the phone into Airplane mode and re-enable wifi, I can now make wifi calls. What I can't see is if 4G calling is enabled or working....it might be but I have no indications

I tried that as well its not working. It asks me to disable airplane mode to make phone calls.
Me too after 9.1.0.310 patch01 no more wifi call neither volte on France orange Sim card
I had to reset my phone to factory settings which solved the problem.
@Sebastiii
Good luck with putting up all your details again with your apps ?
It's a pain to configure all over again!!
I have try another Sim orange card and on this one it works. So retrying mine and it's not working. Will trying to ask support today and see if they can tell what happen.
Thanks

Hungary, Telekom, firmware 310 + patch 2. VoWiFi is working, but I don't get any icon confirmation, only the carrier name changed from Telekom HU to WiFi. Only works if I set "WiFi preferred" in Settings.
Hi, I’ve gotten one of these cheap tablets from wish to make a video review about what you get.
Of course, a lot is faked and less than advertised. But that a new device in 2020 only connects to 2G, that is a new low to me. And even worse: it only accept standard SIMS. No nano sim, no micro sim!

However I saw you can change some internal settings in EngineeringMode and BandMode. Can anyone help me enable at least 3G for sim 1? Cuz it seems like it supports it but is somehow disabled.
See the picture attached.
MTK Engeneering Tool -> MTK settings > BandMode > Select SIM lists the bands your phone supports: By default, you’d see some ticked bands outlined in White color while others are in Grey. Now, those White colored are the bands your phone supports. Of course the SIM-card must support these. Using a SIM-card that doesn’t support any of those white outlined bands, it won’t work
How did you verify that the SIM-card supports the desired bandmode?

Hi, thanks for replying to me!
I'm pretty sure the SIM-card supports the desired bandmode. I've also had this very same SIM-card in my OnePlus One phone and it could connect to 2G, 3G and even LTE fine on there. So both the Carrier and the SIMCard support all networks. Also we still have 3G service using this Carrier in my country until 2022.
As for white and greyed-out bands: I know that the white bands work. The issue is that ALL 3G bands are greyed-out, making the device only connect to 2G (GPRS and EDGE) networks, which are completely unusable in 2020.
I know it is a cheap device and it isn't worth it to spend a lot of time on it, but is there any way to force one or more 3G bands to become white / active?
Never mind, I have gotten proof that this is in fact only a 2G device by running the “adb getprop” command. It showed the following radio version:
TOPWISE82_TB_2_KK_GPRS_HW(DEFAULT)
Since it contains GPRS I think that’s a 2G only radio...
Why they bother to release this in 2019/2020 is still boggling my mind.
I test prepaid plans and part of that process involves checking the QCI. I know that Exynos modems have limitations that Snapdragon ones don't. My Pixel 3 XL unfortunately is not supported for NSG and if I can test this with a 6, I'll definitely upgrade. Can someone who has root run NSG and see if it shows the QCI? I believe it normally shows on the second screen you can swipe to. The QCI is your network priority designation which basically tells you if your plan is deprioritized or not so it's valuable information for prepaid customers to have when evaluating if a plan is good for them.
Here's an example of what the page looks like.

Thank you very much!
Did you have to do anything special to get it working or just stock with root?
I am running stock rooted with Magisk since Google doesn't support VoLTE/VoWiFi in my country and I need to go via this route to have a complete phone...
By the way, how would you rate my QCI rating being at 5? Is this good/bad/average?
Thank you!

Awesome, it's great to hear it works without needing custom ROM or kernel because my 3 XL it doesn't work even with a custom ROM or kernel.
That page is actually reading the IMS QCI, I believe you need to swipe one screen left to get your data QCI. Data QCI runs from 6-9 under the standard model we use in the states with 6 being the highest priority and 9 being the lowest. I would imagine that this is universal since it's actually a 3GPP standard.
@mightyvenom So I actually just went and looked and it should be showing on that same page. I read in another thread that there is an issue if DSDS is turned on that NSG can get confused. If you disable it in *#*#4636#*#* and try again, does it show you the info?
It would be strange to not be able to read the QCI of the data APN but it's only seeing the IMS APN for some reason.

I just checked and DSDS is already disabled by default....while there is another option "Cbrs Data" enabled by default.
Does this help somewhat?
PS: I checked the other screens in NSG and there is no other info on this QCI parameter.

Hmmm I wonder if it's your carrier's settings.
I asked in this thread to see if there is something that can be done to fix it - https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-for-the-pixel-6-exynos.4380231/post-86325917
You would need to perform a new attach while NSG is running in order to see the QCI for default bearer. Just toggle airplane mode.
Rooted on Jan update won't boot... Uninstalled and reinstalled the app... Anyone have a work around for this issue?
My apologies if this is posted somewhere else. I’ve searched and could not find it, but I may be using the wrong words!
In the SIM Manager, some phones (International, maybe?) there is the option to assign services to each SIM. In mine there is not. It’s one SIM or the other at a time for everything. It’s a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra configured for Spectrum (CHA).
Is this function disabling coming from Samsung’s programming? Spectrum’s? (I've gotten an inkling from what I've found so far it has to do with the CSC.) And of course the big question- Is there any way to change it without risking a phone’s stability? I just want to be able to use my home SIM to be available for calls/texts to my home number and a separate eSIM for data simultaneously while traveling in Europe. Is that too much to ask?
I’ve no experience flashing phone firmware and it’s a brand new phone, so I’m terrified of bricking it.
Unfortunately the US models don't have that feature and you can't flash foreign firmware to it either.

Thanks for the rec. It looks like a great app for taking band selection into your own hands. But it does not give you the SIM Manager functionality to select services per SIM, unless I'm missing something?

It's definitely glitched. It doesn't show the names of the networks on the eSIMs. Tapping on the one that said Active though and then tapping the SMS preference and choosing the option with a blank label worked.
Now when I send SMS messages I won't have to remember to flip the stupid toggle to avoid texting from my Boost number.
Too bad it didn't also change the RCS number from Boost to Tello but I can live without RCS.
