I am having issues setting up my nexus 6 properly on a cdma carrier outside the US.
When android 5.1.1 is running on it, I can only do calls and text, However when i install android 6.0.1 it only have LTE data and no voice or text.
What could be causing this issue? If so, How can it be resolved?
Thank you.
Try this and see what signals your getting. LTEDiscovery in the playstore
Gotta put more pertinent info to do any help for you though

lte is only a data connection. your provider must have Volte. volte is Voice Over LTE. thats the only way to get voice on lte.
Ok, so there is no way to get it running otherwise until they setup volte on their system?

right.
but considering they have lte going, most likely they would have volte as well. some US providers, like verizon, have lte and volte, but you have to enable it in the providers settings. id call your provider to find out.

Great, they had mentioned an upgrade in about 2 months,but they didn't elaborate what it would be, only said until then it would work.
Thank you.

Glad you got help. The app is nice though. You can track you bands (which will tell you 3g,4g,LTE, etc.) And grab those modem logs. Anyway glad @simms22 helped you. He deff knows what he's doing

I was thinking about getting an international phone but there are a few versions N930F/FD/S/L/K . Which would be most compatible. As I understand it, the downside is missing some of the bands for data. 3g is the problem I think. Can anyone confirm this or input any additional issues.

N930F/FD will definitely work on T-Mobile...
I think WiFi Calling and VoLTE won't work and you might miss a band or two but it will work just fine.

will you be able to keep the speed at 4g?
Isn't WiFi Calling a built-in feature of Android 6, now? I use it on my Nexus 6P and it has no T Mobile software at all.

I believe 4g is ok. The some bands for 3g have reduced speeds.
N930F has all Tmo bands. WIfi calling and VOLTE will not work with stock rom, but will if/when custom roms come out.
Did anyone go this route? I see couple for sell on ebay.

I dont' really care for wifi calling as I can forward my calls to Google Hangout/Voice.
can you clarify the need for VOLTE?
How to activate google hangout/voice I never used that feature since I have a note 3 and voice and data simultaneously is always been available thanks

Very odd as both worked in the S7 FD version I had for a bit. The requirement isn't bands but that the TMO sim has to be in sim1 not sim2. If it's in sim1 then both work. Also, VoLTE is hidden and always on if supported.
I have a unlocked s10+ with a ATT sim card, when I try to make a call, the HTE network symbol changes to a lower speed and eventually H (edge), however the call does go through?
Just curious if anyone else was seeing this ?
Thanks in advance!
Its normal if you have VoLTE disabled or if it isn't available. You can check in settings > connections > mobile networks and check if you have VoLTE enabled.
Don't see it under those options, thanks for the reply !

Maybe your carrier doesn't support VoLTE yet, are u from the US?
This is how it looks on my phone.

Ask your provider to re-provision VoLTE setting to your SIM. Also sometimes you may have to wait for an update for he settings to get applied. Happened to me on my S7. Carrier had activated VoLTE but phone s/w didn't support it. After an update, everything worked.
data is limited to H or 3G (if you are lucky) during calls
thats normal as the phone is using bandwidth for voice calls and cannot offer same data speeds
4G is all about data transfers so you would never really make a call over 4G it will always be over H
ATT doesn't allow VoLTE on the unlocked version. You will need to flash the carrier rom to enable it.
Appreciate everyone's feedback, I spoke to my carrier, and they (Level 2 Tech.) claimed that they (ATT) and Samsung were working on a device performance update, but were not sure of the release time, I will see if they can address this issue, else will need to reflash with carrier rom

I recently switched to ATT and I have VoLTE on my S10e unlocked exynos. Had it on T-mobile too. I have a VoLTE switch under Connections>Mobile Networks. Snapdragon maybe different, but it definitely works on a stock unlocked device.

I have LTE during voice calls. Your phone/carrier may not give you this option, but others have it.
At&T doesn't fully support unlocked phone learned that the hard way when i bought my 1st unlock note 8. Internet was slow same signal your getting H+ no wifi calling it was a mess returned it and bought an At&t note.

Curious, what made you go for a Exynos phone? I thought they were inferior to the SD versions and LTE bands missing for the USA

Future custom roms, root. The exynos version isn't missing any LTE bands that I know of. I get great coverage and speed. I don't know how they are inferior to SD. Performance and battery life are good.
Unlocked U1 devices will not get VoLTE or VoWifi with AT&T. Some have had luck flashing the AT&T firmware and CSC on prior generations, but there wasn't a guaranteed way to make this work.
If you need these features, youre best off buying the AT&T branded version, or buying an international phone that enables VoLTE without requiring carrier validation. (Which will likely work)

If your provider supports VoLTE, then you can as voice is transmitted as VOIP call via LTE network. You should see VoLTE icon next to 4G icon if your provider supports it and is provisioned to your SIM card.
I've messaged the manufacturer with little to no response.
Does this phone have VoWIFI or VoLTE capability?
Thanks

The manufacturer got back to me. No it doesn't
I'm out. Shame.
I have wanted to get the ROG since the 2 came out. I'm on Verizon and don't plan on changing anytime soon.
Can the 3 work on the Verizon network? If it does, will it be limited in any way (service area, speed, bands, and so forth)? What has to be done to make it work?
Thank You for your help!

according to this:
https://www.kimovil.com/en/where-to-buy-asus-rog-phone-3-16gb-512gb-am
it should work only on 4G network only on Verizon network, no 5G or 3G which might be an issue for you .

Data only on 4g.
Has anyone been able to to try it?
I was hoping someone could say there experience with using it on Verizon's network?
It seems this reviewer tried it on Verizon: pcmag com /product-guides/137219/asus-rog-phone-3
We asked in the comments and I emailed him personally but he did not respond.
I think it working on 4g is a good bet. You would just have to root to be able to enable VoLTE and Wifi calling. Like they did for the ROG phone 2.

So did you see my post? Right above yours? I dont understand everyone's refusal to believe what is posted here. It gets 4g data only.

So, just to be sure that I understand you correctly. You are saying it will ONLY do data? No calls?
Could you also please give your reason, knowledge, or sources for the statement? Thank you in advance.
