Share your experiences about enabling VoLTE here!

[Oblio123]

I have installed it and I can confirm that VoLTE and VoWiFi work.
Was using previous version and when lastest was released, I just updated it than went into pixel ims, clear settings then activate VoLTE
Both menus (VoLTE and VoWiFi) are shown and was able to place a call over WiFi.

[victor-marino]

Hi there.

In my case, VoLTE was already enabled for my carrier in the Pixel 7 Pro, but VoWiFi is not. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be possible to enable VoWiFi in this scenario on the latest version (1.1.2).

When I open the IMS app, all toggles are already on, and the "Enable VoLTE" button is greyed out, so I can't trigger the process. Pressing the "Clear setting" button doesn't seem to do anything either.

I thought about disabling the toggles manually, but they don't seem to be usable either.

Maybe the app needs to check for VoWiFi separately, and if it's not enabled, provide a way to trigger the process even if VoLTE is already enabled? Maybe a separate VoWiFi button would make sense.

What do you think?

Edit: Opened an issue here as it's probably worth it.

[Pointmanipo]

Worked perfectly on my Xiaomi 14 using Tmobile USA.

[Oblio123]

I just installed Feb 2023 android update. VoLTE and VoWiFi are lost but all you need to do is restart Shizuku from adb, then in Pixel IMS app click Enable VoLTE and everything is fine and working.

[gchatou21r]

Working great volte and vowifi on Vodafone Greek carrier. 5g isn't working. Pixel 7 pro stock Feb rom without root.

[fillwithjoy1]

Try this, open *#*#4636#*#* and set Network type to NR Only

[Oblio123]

maybe you need to have your carrier activate VoWiFi services for you.

They already are, and I've also had VoLTE working fine for years (and now on my Pixel 7 Pro too).

There must be some piece missing specifically for VoWiFi, but I don't know what it is :-(

[bige93]

Hi there @kyujin-cho ! Thank you for your work!

Just wanted to share some feedback on trying your patch on Pixel 6 running on T-Mobile Poland network.

Since Android 13 VoLTE works on Pixel 6 out of the box, but not WiFi Calling.

I followed your instructions and run the script, then switched WiFi Calling on in the app.
WiFi Calling setting appeared right away, however I couldn't force it to work even after few reboots.
On top of that, whenever WiFi Calling is enabled in the device settings, phone can't register for VoLTE and calls are being placed over 3G.

Carrier supports WiFi Calling and I have it enabled on my line (I was using it with iPhone 7 previously).

Any chance you can check what could be the issue?

Much appreciated!

[victor-marino]

I'm in a similar situation (VoLTE already enabled without the app, but I need the app to enable VoWiFi).

In my case, even if I enable Wi-Fi calls, VoLTE continues working if I'm NOT connected to a Wi-Fi network.

But if I'm on a Wi-Fi network and I set it to prefer WiFi calls over mobile calls, it will also use 2G/3G. And if I force my phone to 4G/5G only (to disable 2G and 3G), then I cannot make calls while on Wi-Fi. I assume the phone chooses VoWiFi over VoLTE in that situation, fails to place the call, and can't fall back to 2G/3G so it just drops.

I'm still investigating, but I wonder if it could be something on the network side.

By the way, Vodafone Spain rolled out VoWiFi only a few months ago. Is that also the case for T-Mobile Poland?

I'm just wondering if there could be some carrier settings that are still missing in the AOSP/Pixel database for carriers that have only just rolled out the service.

[bige93]

Afaik T-Mo PL introduced both VoLTE and WiFi calling some few years ago.

WiFi calling has been working on my P6 back when I had root (beginning of '22).

[BurhanBudak]

I think with Android 12 and 13, VoWifi isnt prioritized. Android 11 made 8r persistent 8f WiFi was available.

[papocadena]

in Mexico, works great, some way to make donations for your work?

[arsradu]

Donations have been discussed before here.
Unfortunately, it can't be done due to the country's regulations.

But a simple Thank You can go a long way. :)

[sauls6]

hi @papocadena , i was wondering about which carrier were you using, and if you could share the whats your configuration in the phone info "Set preferred network type" here in mexico, i moved it around and broke some thing but havent been able to get one that works fine.

[fillwithjoy1]

Just go to Pixel IMS, Reset Carrier Configuration and also go to your settings and enable 2G at least (Along with going to *#*#4636#*#* and use LTE/NR/WCDMA/GSM). If you can afford, go into System > Reset Options > Reset Network Settings

[arsradu]

Working perfectly fine for me (VoLTE and VoWIFI).

The only thing I'd like to get a workaround for is Shizuku. But that's not really the point of this patch.
If you're not rooted, you kinda need to re-enable it after each restart. If you are rooted, you can just give it permission and forget about it. It does its job perfectly fine in the background. But as a non-rooted user, you need to re-enable it. And, that seems to be due to the fact that WiFi debugging itself turns off automatically.

[arsradu]

Yeah...but it didn't work like that on Android 13... :)) I remember I did have to re-enable Shizuku in order to get back the functionality. This is weird....

Could be because I was using Shizuku 12 on Android 13? Now I tried Shizuku 13 from Github, aaand...apparently you don't have to re-enable anything.

So, are you saying that, even on Android 13 (non beta), if you remove the apps, it still works? Is this a Shizuku feature or Android beta/14 specific issue...? I'm super confused right now. :))

[DarkSofter]

im on android 13 (not beta), shizuku 13.2.1. I needed to start it only to apply the patch (i did wireless debugging, not adb from pc). I can uninstall the app right after and volte/wifi work fine for me even after restarting several times. It shouldn't be a shizuku version problem anyways, since its only used to apply the patch and thats it...Weird

[arsradu]

Weird indeed... :)) But anyway, this is really cool! So, you just need to enable it once and that's it. After that, apparently you can even switch SIMs, and still works (provided it was activated before). This is awesome!!!

[DarkSofter]

yeah its amazing. plus with wireless debugging even after a phone update it takes like 30-40 seconds to enable it again and call it a day till the next update

[arsradu]

I can do it in 10s. :))

I did it so often on Android 13 (previous setup, the one I was telling you about) I can do it with my eyes closed now. :))

[mma1166]

Thanks from Bangladesh 🇧🇩.
Working fine in my Pixel 7 with Carrier: GP.
Here pixel is not officially sold and also not listed as a supported country to Google.

But there are lots of people who use the pixel as their daily driver and in most cases, they import it from us UK or Japan. And in most cases, people face a heavy rate of call dropping. And sometimes they sold their phone just because of this issue. And as the pixel is not officially supported they can not enable VoLTE. Now by using these options we can enable vol

te and this will call drop issues in most cases. Which will remove the main burden to use pixel devices as a daily driver.

[safwanrahman]

Yes, still using VolTE for GP. The call dropping issue seems solved.

[Mahir291]

Thanks i'll try it out.

[Mahir291]

I tried the Pixel IMS app, shizuku is running but IMS status is showing as unregistered in both the app and the *# menu. Cant tell if VoLTE is actually working as calls are still being dropped. Any suggestions would be great

[Synapse07]

How did you get volte to work on grameenphone? Im using pixel 6 and its not working. Works for airtel though. Walkthrough?

[fillwithjoy1]

@Mahir291 Can you send an adb logcat of what your device sees as soon as you toggle the 4G calling setting

[artproject-2004]

Platform tested:

Phone: Pixel 7
Rooted: No
Country: Poland
Network: VirginMobile
Shizuku: 13.2
Pixel IMS: 1.2.1
Issue: Can't register IMS, VoLTE and voWiFi not working.

[jafffar98]

Amazing job, thank you!
I have rooted my phone awhile ago to enable 5G and VoLTE but had to uninstall magisk modules a week after it cuz my bank app won't work (yes I've tried everything literally). However, I still have 5G even tho I uninstalled magisk but lost VoLTE, and now thanks to you I'm able to have 5G, VoLTE and VoWiFi without root!

[fabianshady]

Hi @jafffar98 what extra config did you do to have 5G?

[jafffar98]

I rooted and used network guru method.
Google enabled VoLTE, VoWiFi and 5G on my Pixel 8 end of last year. However, my P6 only has VoWiFi and VoLTE.

[arsradu]

The issue (and could be just on Pixel 6s, but sure looks like a bug), is that, at least in my case, the phone wouldn't connect to 5G, even though the carrier supported it, and the phone supported it.

As a (stupid) workaround, I had to remove the SIM card, boot the phone without a SIM, then put the SIM back, and reboot. Yes, that stupid. Oooor, switch SIMs.

So, if you're sure that Pixel 6 SIM is ok, has everything enabled on carrier side, then....I feel like you might be having the exact same issue.

For as far as I know (and I could be wrong, of course), Pixel IMS app doesn't help with 5G. Only with VoLTE, VoWIFI and some cosmetic issues. But I'm guessing you might already have native support, if it's also enabled on the Pixel 8.

[onezetty]

First of all thank you very much for your work.

I am from Mexico, I have a Pixel 6a and here we use a virtual mobile operator or "OMV" called "Newww", which depends on a provider called "Altan", when a phone cannot be used, they force us to use an app called "VozApp" and with she we can make calls it works but it's horrible and the calls are pretty bad like talking on skype.

That being said, I followed all the installation steps and the tutorial, everything indicated that it was "done", but it did not work for me, the menu appeared and I could activate it and the IMS check told me that VoLTE is active, but it did not pass nothing, so I spoke to the customer service of my mobile operator, I told them that I could not receive calls "because they had changed phones".

They told me that indeed my device was listed as not compatible, so I told them that I had VoLTE enabled and I didn't understand why I had no service, I noticed that my line went "offline" and after a while, my line went back to work so I tried again to make calls and it started working with no problem.

So maybe if someone like me is experiencing the same thing, a call to the operator is a good idea.

[papocadena]

hola, en newww que les dijiste para que te desbloquearan la linea? ya no te la volvieron a bloquear o te cambiaron los planes de datos a otros mas caros como en diri?

[onezetty]

No, solo les dije que tenía la opción VoLTE activada y no tenía línea, me dijeron que el problema era mi teléfono y después de eso "note" que mi línea se desconectó y volvió a funcionar unos minutos después ya con servicio al 100%.

[philiprusinov]

Confirmed that VoLTE is working on Yettel, Bulgaria.
As the carrier do not support VoWiFi I'm not able to check it.
I'm wondering whether the method is executing APIs without a need of root, is it possible to develop such application for 5G enabling also?

[macfusbluer]

So bad that donations cannot be donde but this module helped me have 5G, VoLTE/VoWifi on Movistar Mexico using a Pixel 6. I used to have rooted at first but many problems with some apps, especially payments.

[macfusbluer]

llevo 5 días con la eSIM, con lo que me dices voy a estar al tanto.

[papocadena]

ok, ojala no te la bloqueen, te llega un mensaje y te dice que ya solo podras recibir llamadas pues tu equipo es incompatible y te obligan a llamar a servicio a cliente para solicitar el desbloqueo y ellos te dicen que para desbloquear la linea tiene que aceptar los planes light, si no, no la desbloquean

[onezetty]

Ok, después de un update de Android, tuve que volver a activar el LTE, tal como dicen las instrucciones, tengo ya tres semanas y sigue funcionado sin problemas, las llamadas son superclaras y no he tenido más problemas con mi OMV Newww y mi Pixel 6a.

[fabianshady]

Hey @macfusbluer que configuracion adicional hiciste para activar el 5G?

[macfusbluer]

Ninguna configuración adicional, sólo requieres tener cobertura y plan con 5G y que diga que "5G preferred".

[davidferso]

VoLTE works with my Pixel 6a!!
VoLTE: ok
ViLTE: ok
VoWiFi: not supported
Carrier: Personal MNC: 05

Obs: currently VoLTE is not available for all subscribers, just for a few for testing at the moment.

[chrisravuk]

Great job!
Confirmed that VoLTE and VoWiFi working with Salt, Switzerland.
Pixel 6a, Android 13.
MCC 228, MNC 03.
Is there a similar way (without root) to enable 5G option?

[andresro14]

For 5G, not for now :(

[jafffar98]

I can confirm that the patch works on Pixel 8

[JosefWaida]

Pixel 8 vowifi enabled and working (also on esim)
Carriers Kaktus CZ and T-Mobile CZ. Android 14, October patch.

[rubyonrails3]

so I've tried to Mobilink Jazz Network from Pakistan and I was able to successfully enable VoLTE and WiFi-Calling on my Pixel 7 Pro.

I've tried with 3 different carrier

1. Zong (Zong does not support VoLTE but that is what I tried first and IMS status stayed inactive)
2. Onic (its a new operator but it uses Ufone network so I thought it might support VoLTE as well but no it doesn't so didn't work for Onic)
3. Jazz supports both Wifi Calling and VoLTE and this solution worked on my Pixel 7 Pro.

[bencejuhaasz]

Hi, in Europe, Hungary, on the Vodafone network VoLTE works following the english instructions. MCC 216 MNC 70. I made a pull request to the compatibility table. I've found the 0-s in the table a bit confusing, maybe we should but yes/no instead of them.

[samleong123]

Hi, I've successfully enabled VoLTE and VoWiFi through the Pixel IMS app. To let VoWiFi / VoLTE work need to manually add ims APN.

Phone: Pixel 6
Android Version: 14
Pixel IMS: 1.2.6
Continent: Asia
MCC: Malaysia (502)
MNC: unifi (153)
VoLTE: Yes
VoWiFi: Yes

*If IMS is not registered when LTE network was connected, simply disconnect WiFi to disable VoWiFi and restart your device, VoLTE should work after the restart (Android 14 (UP1A.231105.003))

[samleong123]

Okay I think I found a temporary solution
Everytime after I connected to WiFi and VoWiFi was ablt to use , the VoLTE will be unregistered and VoLTE remain unuseable
The solution : Restart the device and disable WiFi to let VoLTE work
It's work for the current Android 14 (UP1A.231105.003)
Hope the bug was fixed on the next version

[samleong123]

Update : Android 14 UQ1A.231205.015 Pixel 6
VoLTE and VoWiFi work perfectly even between switching WiFi and LTE/NR NSA
No more unregistered issue

[arsradu]

Told ya. :)

Glad it's all working for you now.

[Smooooochy]

I'm on beta AP11.231117.006, IMS still not re-registering after disconnecting from Wi-Fi.

My solution is much more simple though, turn on Airplane mode for 5 seconds and turn it back off, IMS is now registered.

Pain in the ass though! Hope it'll get fixed by the next beta release :/

[samleong123]

mine doesnt work by flight mode, need to reboot
But after reboot don't modify any settings (e.g. NSG Lock Band) then it will work like normal

[Estuardoz]

mine on pixel 7 works great....

[flossy83]

Nokia 4.2 (TA-1150, Australian version) running Android 11 - successful activation of VoLTE!

However it doesn't survive a reboot :(

If anyone can offer any tips to resolve this it would be appreciated, for example is it the SIM card which is overriding the IMS registration on boot? Or is it some other part of Android like Carrier Services?

Have tried the suggestions mentioned here (except for editing the APN - I'll only try that as a last resort as it seems risky).

Thank you to the author for your incredible work!

In Australia all major providers are shutting down 3G/4G in August 2024 (all phones must support 4G VoLTE) so you have saved us many bricks. Been through the customer service merry-go-round of bullcrap - providers claiming the phone doesn't support it, while Nokia says it's the provider's fault.

[realgsong]

After I reboot my phone, all those volte setup is reset. So I have to start it over again. Using Google Pixel 8. Any idea?

[flossy83]

Have tried the suggestions mentioned here (except for editing the APN - I'll only try that as a last resort as it seems risky).

Big mistake - messing with the APN config has killed IMS registration and therefore I cannot get VoLTE back. Have tried resetting everything, just cannot get IMS registration to enable anymore after messing with the APNs. Big regret :(

edit: changing lowercase ims to uppercase IMS in APN config has solved it thankfully.

[flossy83]

So adding IMS to the APN(s) makes it so that *#4636 changes from:

IMS registration: not registered
Voice over LTE: unavailable

to:

IMS registration: registered
Voice over LTE: unavailable

So the only issue is the the new IMS settings aren't getting applied at boot for some reason - any ideas why? Something must be overriding it.

[dvirgassner]

Successfully enabled voLTE and voWiFi on a Google Pixel 8 Pro. The carrier is Partner in Israel, which natively supports voLTE on this model but NOT voWiFi (as confirmed by their senior support staff).

What did the trick is probably the addition of the "IMS" APN as explained here. I've typed "IMS" in caps everywhere, as suggested by a few commenters.

I also did reset the network and carrier settings before adding the APN, as per the first troubleshooting suggestion here, but I doubt that made any difference.

Finally, note that voLTE will NOT work when you're connected to WiFi, only voWiFi will. This looks like natural behavior. Once I disconnect from WiFi, the status of voLTE in ##4636## becomes "available," and voWiFi becomes "unavailable" -- and vice versa.
