Nexus 6 and Wi-Fi calling? How do I do it? - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've recently installed the Pure Nexus rom on the Nexus 6. Now I go to where it says preferred connection for call and i highlight "Wifi Preferred" instead of the cellular network.
Now when i'm connected to Wi-Fi i've been told it should say Wi-Fi Calling above the phone call. I get nothing. Unfortunately I don't know what it's using because I have both cell service and wifi where I am. The problem is that this is my girlfriends phone and when she goes to her parents for days at a time she has no cell service and can only use Wi-Fi.
Is there anything I specifically need to setup? And i'm going to assume the stock Messenger app should work with Wi-Fi fine as well?
I just want to be prepared for when she goes. Thank you

you need to be on t-mobile's network i believe to make wi-fi calls

I am a T-Mobile customer, but the point of Wi-Fi calling is to be able to make calls when you don't have any cell service. Works fine on the LG G3.... for some reason it isn't working here. I've tried to force no encryption on the boot image, i've also tried the latest radio from the Android M preview. None seem to work. There has got to be something I am missing. I suppose I could put the phone back to stock but i'd rather not.

I am a Ting customer and use my N6 on TMO's network and with Purenexus ROM I have Wi-Fi calling. With Ting we have to manually configure APNs for data and MMS. I suspect that is where you need to look. Go to settings>more>cellular networks>APNs and you may need to toggle one.

Peculiar.. As far as I am aware, you must use the stock kernel from a tmo stock rom for work calling.

Not so. I have Wi-Fi calling working with lean kernel, hells and a beta based on hells.

Please confirm the changes that make this possible.
Is it also possible that tings wifi calling is different from tmo? I imagine it must be, because flashing custom.kernels on tmo stock broke wifi calling...
Edit... Just remembered, M kernel sources brought wifi calling in by default

Hopefully, you helped the OP. You did respond to my posts, but unfortunately nothing you said helped me understand. I suppose yes, you helped me remember
But if the OP has a supporting kernel and the APN correct, it should be all good.

Can't get VoLTE working. Euphoria ROM. VZW

Ok, this is frustrating. I can't seem to get VoLTE working. Clean flashed, and in the hidden menu there's this View attachment 3217747. I didn't ever set it to ON, so I don't know why the OFF option is there. Whenever I make a call, the LTE icon goes away, and no internet.
Not sure if this will help as I don't know what steps you have already taken, but have you gone through these steps first?

No, no app. Maybe you should try enabling on stock and then flashing back to Euphoria. Maybe that will help.

Does it have ims.apk in system apps?
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app
Before I would get the setting and it would be enabled but I coudn't do simultaneous voice/data. I flashed stock but now i get server error try again later each time. weird.
I'm completely stock verizon nexus 6 (recevied mine yesterday in the mail), but I was having same frustration you describe. Could not use hotspot and browse internet while in a voice call. And it was always in 3g.
I don't know if this will help but here is what I did.
first I did the hidden menu... *#*#4636#*#*
tapped the volte provision option and then I forced a power down.
After powering up I confirmed that the Enhanced 4G LTE was enabled in settings.
I went back into the hidden menu and confirmed that volte provision was turned on. It was because it now showed the "Turn OFF volte" option instead of "Turn On".
I retried using internet/data while in a voice call and the phone still would not allow data while in the call. I could only get 3g in hotspot and voice calls would still interrupt data.
I then learned that I had to enable HD or whatever the new service is called on my Verizon account. They said in the webpage instructions that I may have to reboot and check for system updates. And to wait about 15 minutes for it to take affect.
I rebooted, forced a check for new system updates (there were none), and then I tried retesting by turning on hotspot (still was just 3g) and trying to place a call while using hotspot and browsing from my laptop. As soon as the voice call was made I could no longer browse the internet using hotspot... basically same as it always had been. I was frustrated to the point of seriously considering returning the phone to verizon.
Then I went back into the hidden menu and changed the radio option to "USA" (the option in upper right corner of that hidden menu.) I don't know what it was set to previously but I never leave the country so USA is good enough for me.
I rebooted again and to my pleasant surprise, it showed nearly full bars in LTE and hotspot/internet worked great all while in a voice call.
*Solution? I'm not sure if it was just my repeated reboots that did it, or if it was that last radio USA option I selected, or if it just took 15 minutes or so for Verizon to update my account to enable the HD (or whatever it is called).
Again, I'm completely stock vanilla on Verizon. But my frustration sounded very much like yours so maybe this will help you situation. Good luck

This worked for a few people and it was confirmed having the same issue ur having.
People keep bring up these steps are useless but like i said i have people confirmed this works over the other method.
Hope it helps
I followed all of the steps in the tutorials with no success. I have MultiRom installed along with ElementalX as my kernel as it supports MultiRom. I installed Scott's 5.1 stock rooted rom as a secondary rom and made sure the settings were correct for VoLTE. HD Voice was working as well as voice/data over 4G. When I booted back into Euphoria, everything worked great. This is what worked for me, but your mileage may vary. It's crazy that people are having to do so many steps and workarounds to get the features active on the same hardware and essentially the same core software.

VoLTE bug

I have a Jio 4g sim in slot one. I can access internet just fine but when I try to make a call it says " call failed, try another method"
I have an idea 3g sim in slot 2. After searching online I found solutions like swap Sims (already done that), try sim in another phone (volte calling works fine on other phone) and wiping cache ( done, no luck)
Is it true that the December update broke the volte functionality? I just bought the phone so I don't know much about that but there are a lot of people facing the same problem it seems, going by all the complaints on forums
How do I fix this?
Ps: calling via the jio4g voice app works fine

Any solutions to volte problem?
I'm not able to use VoLTE but my brother can, both on Moto G5S Plus. Only difference is that he's on stock rom and I've tried all sorts of custom roms including AEX, Cosmis, RR, PE etc. But I couldn't get VoLTE working on any of them.
I haven't tried VoLTE when I had stock rom, so can't say if its due to OS or some other problem.
What's wrong with my moto G5s+ ? I also experienced an incident like this after flash stock rom 61-2.

Cellular Issue, not sure of the cause, Details inside (Please Help!!)

So i was having some issues with my phone not connecting at night, i didnt know what was causing it, i figured it was my ISP messing with me because i use too much Data. But, i decided to try a custom rom to see if thaty helped. Well, it didn't. Lol. Now, when i boot my phone, i get LTE, and no voice service. after about 30~ Seconds, it loses the LTE, and changes to "Searching For Service" but it never finds service again until next reboot, where it will repeat this process. i returned to stock (as far as locking the bootloader, too) and its now doing this on stock. what do you guys think? am i doomed?
It's an XT1806
EDIT: So it turns out if i have VoLTE enabled, it'll count that as a voice service and stay connected. but not long after i turn that off, it begins searching for service again. Any ideas?

If it's Verizon, it may need volte as there may only be volte available. Vz is volte only I'm many markets now. May also be the same case with other carriers.

Check imei on your device. They, whoever they are, can fix an imei mismatch on their end, but it's gotta match the number on the device in question. May need a new sim though.
okay now its back to being my devices fault. i got it back to connecting to 4G LTE but not CDMA (So no 3G, or non-VoLTE Calling). i got it this far by flashing fsg.bin. what else could i be missing?

Question T-Mobile - US/NYS issues

Hey team., I was wondering if anyone in upstate NY, or anywhere in the NE of the US has T-Mobile and has found the service....lacking. I would prefer to keep the phone, but last night my wife called 4 times and even tho the phone was idly sitting here it never rang and she confirmed, loudly, that the calls went straight to voicemail.
I am wondering if there are any APN settings I need to change to get this thing to work better and more consistently. As in keep the phone registered to the mobile network, perhaps push a new registration every X minutes instead of allowing a timeout.
Does this happen with other phones in your area?

which ROM? I have chinese version phone but i installed xiaomi.eu rom. i use tello which uses t-mobile too. i dont have any issues though
I had a strange issue with the wlan calls "make calls using wlan " option in the sim card settings.
When I had it enabled, at home connected to my local wifi, sometimes i could not receive/make calls even tough the network reception was solid.
Once I deactivated the option i haven't had any issues.
Take care !
i haven't had any success unlocking or swapping out from the chinese rom. you'd think being a sr voip engineer it would be a breeze, but apparently i'm a bit of an idiot.

If you activated wifi calling in a settings. Disable it.
I also hope you activated VoLTE !
Im using Chinese variant on tmobile (NJ) is working flawlessly but make sure your VoLTE is on (i hope u know how to activated) and your wifi calling is off (this option when is ON brings some strange things lmao)
i had wifi on with my huawei mate 20 pro 8/256, it wouldn't allow calls in. i think i turned on volte, i'll check again tho. thanks!

it didn't happen on at&t with my mate 20 pro, but as soon as i changed to tmo it started. now again with this 11ultra.
pretty sure this phone is just getting the base config for the apn since there's no profile for Xiaomi on tmo's device management servers, at least here in the US. i just figured i was missing something in there and would be able to edit the appropriate field

Question my REALME x7 max 5g does not work with any phone company

hello friends I need help please, I have a REALME X7 MAX with 12 gb in RAM and 256 ROM with a firmware RMX3031 fast charge of 65w the problem that I have with this phone is that I could not make it work with my current telephone company (cricket) I went with them and several other phone companies (Verizon, at&t, boost mobile, us cellular, T Mobile, etc etc) and in all of them they tell me that my phone is not compatible with their networks and services, I have been investigating and I know which phone is not it allows to activate Volte, maybe that is one of the reasons why it does not accept to work in any of these phones, I have tried to activate Volte with the universal network mode app, with another app like force Volte 4g etc and none works with this firmware, I would like to know if anyone else has the same problem and how did you solve it? I was also thinking of installing another ROM but I don't know which one I could try to install to fix this problem that I have, could someone help me thank you very much

I don't know because when I bought the phone I bought it on AliExpress and when I started it for the first time it asked me to update, I did it and then I inserted my micro sim, and ohhh surprise it didn't work with my network and that the phone is unlocked, after that I tried many things like forcing the Volte etc I went to many phone companies and they all tell me that it will not work with any of them, I think that maybe I will have a solution if I change the firmware or something like that to a different version, I don't know, I'm newbie in this but I have a little idea of what may be happening since the phone itself does not let me activate Volte and that is the requirement for this phone to work in my country with any phone company
