Just in case you do not know it, the carrier that you use, need to support it in general, and the carrier also have to decide that they want to support on that phone model.

Is the menu inaccessible/hidden entirely without carrier support? I can find the shortcut to "Enhanced 4G LTE" by searching the settings menu, but when I try to follow it I end up with the normal network settings (without the Enhanced 4G LTE option)
My phone is the TA-1004 version

*#*#4636#*#* key combo will get you access to enable VOLTE/Video calling over WIFI.
Be careful of what you change.

Hello,
Thanks for sharing that I fo, I know that secret code but don't stay on VoLTE, seems as carrier have to enable that service on sim card, and they make available this services only on Samsung S8, Samsung S8+ and Xiaomi MI6. They are still on test with VoLTE

I think it depend on carrier.
I have two carrier, one doesn't have VoLTE and another have
In Cellular network settings, you can see one have "Enahnced 4G LTE Mode", but another not.

Pair 10 pro with AT&T Number Sync successful

So sorry if this was common knowledge but I haven't seen anything on this yet so I thought I'd share. I decided to try setting up AT&T's number sync between my new mate 10 pro and my LG Sport and it worked. What makes that amazing is this is the first non att branded phone I have ever been able to set up directly between the phone and a att smartwatch that didn't require me using a att branded smartphone in the middle. You can't find the ability to do it through the my att app or website but if you initiate through the watch, it will open the browser on your phone and then give you a number sync code, once you log in through the browser, you put in the code and then accept terms and it will successfully link. This phone also seems to work well with the LG Sport. Battery life is waaay better then when it's paired to my Att Note 8.
FYI, Att number sync allows multiple devices to receive a phone call or text message from the main line they are tied to. That way every thing is seen from one number. One of the requirements is that the phone must be Att branded.
So that tells me between this and VoLTE working on att with this phone, this phone was all but ready for att network and only thing missing was the att branding on the phone before att backed out.
Sorry if long l, just wanted to share to maybe help other att users.
Have you been able to get/verify that VoLTE is working on your mate 10 Pro? If yes, how did you verify it works? I have a Dual Sim 10 Pro rebranded to the US 10 Pro (did at Best Buy) with the Enhanced Voice and VoLTE options enabled. Thanks.

I didn't use the default apn that sets up when I had my att sim inserted. I used the settings from att's support page: https://www.att.com/esupport/article.html#!/wireless/KM1218306
If I remember, there were a few subtle differences. Honestly, I didn't notice if VoLTE was working before the new apn settings but I see that it works for sure with the new apn settings. My status doesn't change from LTE whether on call and/or browsing.

well, not working for me... i used an app to validate data connection during phone call and when connected to a call, data drops to HSPA+.

Hmmm...visually the LTE symbol dosesnt change and I think it sounds like it should. What's the app you used? I'll check and see if I get the same thing.

So I made a phone call with the app running and it showed under the raw tab:
Voice NW: LTE
Data NW: LTE+
So I'm guessing its working.

No problem. I was thinking, you said you rebranded to us but I wonder if by a slim chance there is some hardware difference that is dectected? Like maybe a certain band att uses. I haven't looked at the differenceces in bands between models.

Cellular bands are the same as US version; when not in a call I connect to LTE+. I can achieve cellular download speeds of 98 Mbps. Main difference between US version and mine is my phone is dual SIM Mate 10 Pro. The second SIM connects to 4G when I make a call. If I use only 1 SIM, connection drops to HSPA+. I see an option to enable VoLTE on the second SIM, but it's disabled. Have you to find a way to enable it. I appreciate your feedback, thanks again.

As you probably know, mine only has one Sim slot and when I go to settings and drill down into the mobile network options, under 'Advanced' Enhanced LTE Services is already enabled.

Wifi-Calling on Global Mi8

Hey guys,
yesterday I got my new Mi 8 <3 It's really nice...
I wanted to check if I can use wifi calling, but there is no option for it in settings. I can search for it but there is only text as you can see in the screenshot.
I checked the "hidden menu" under *#*#4636#*#* but the option is greyed out, too.
I'm living in Germany with Vodafone and wifi calling is included in my plan.
Any hints? Is wifi calling working for you?
Thanks
I think the Mi8 is not supported by Vodafone.
I don't get it :/ Other Xiaomi phones are working, too. I thought Xiaomi have to implement the profiles? I don't know why this is always so hard, Android does support VoWifi since some major versions natively
It was one point, why I bought the Mi8 instead of the OP6. I hope it will get it fast

Hey man thank you very much for this. I tried it and it seems that is working. Νow in the signal bars I have a HD which I guess is because of Wi-Fi calling.
Hi Baddevil2!
Did you eventually manage to get WiFi Calling working with Vodafone Germany?

No, "HD" usually means VoLTE which is a completely different thing. Could you please try to enable flight mode and after that ONLY enable WiFi? If you are still able to make / receive calls, than WiFi Calling is working.
Tried build.prop change, Wifi-Calls enabled and preferred *#*#4636#*#* shows the switch enabled, but (three dots - IMS status) shows VoWifi "not available". VoLTE works same as before (without build.prop tweak). I checked both O2 and Vodafone Germany.
Seems there is no solution for VoWifi at the moment.
Come on, don't destroy my hopes Too bad...

My friend I don't think that the Wi-Fi calling works like that. The phone must recognize that you have sim card in your phone. I think that If you enable the aeroplane mode the phone doesn't recognize the SIM card. I am not 100% sure thought.
Yesterday I tried it with latest Xiaomi.eu rom and Magisk Module (to write build.prop entries).
I can enable VoWIFI in settings but if I try to call someone from wifi I only get an error message.
Very sad that it not work
Did anyone get this working?
I'm using Mi8 in UK on "Three" & "EE" - neither support the handset.
Can it be forced to work? Point me in the right direction if possible. Thanks
On MIUI ROMs it's not possible to get it to work. I installed Pixel3ROM some minutes ago and try to enable it there
Please keep us updated!
I didn't know it is possible to use different types of ROM on the phone.
Of course it's possible, but at the moment it still doesn't work Maybe I have to try another ROM
I'm on eu rom. when i install volte enabler magisk module (in repo), i got wifi calling feature in sim settings which actually works
On Xiaomi.eu ROM? I get Wifi-Calling switch, but phone does not register with IMS (Vodafone Germany).
Can you provide screenshot of ims status?

On call while using data.

How do you do this on mi8?
I can on phone call while using mobile data to chat on my iPhone 7
You description needs more details. However, it seems that you are wanting to make phones using data and you can't?
If you have properly gone through your settings and enabled WIFI calling and Mobile data, and you are still experiencing an issue, then try checking your APN settings.
There is a very good chance that your settings are incorrect and it's why you are experiencing this issue.
He is asking why data is disabled when you answer a phone call.
I have the same issue on Sphinx + AOSiP
With my older Xiaomi Redmi 4X I was able to browse the net while speaking to someone on the phone.

Voice over LTE (VoLTE or HD Voice)? Is that what you mean? VoLTE enables LTE voice calls which sounds clearer than using 4G (HSPA+) and sometimes this is needed to simultaneously use calls and data (internet, downloads, etc).
Make sure your carrier supports this technology, and that your carrier's APNs are properly set up. If your carrier doesn't support VoLTE, it's not a problem, but the following steps will not help you. As far as I have an understanding, if you have two SIM cards active, you can only use one SIM card at a time for multiple functions. Also, I have only tested this in SIM slot 1.
Go to Settings > Additional Settings > Region. Set your region to Hong Kong. This may automatically install some bloatware (useless) apps, but you can delete them as they are mainly for China. Once this is done, try to call and see if it sticks to LTE and allows you to use your internet. IF IT DOES NOT, go to your dialer (phone app) and dial *#*#86583#*#*
You will see a message pop up at the bottom of the screen, this is normal. Now you should be able to enable/disable VoLTE in the carrier settings (Settings > SIM cards and Mobile Networks > tap your SIM card and phone number). It should already be enabled by default. Now try again. If it still doesn't work, double check your APN settings or contact your carrier to see if this phone fully supports their network.
As a bonus, setting the region to Hong Kong also unlocks the Face Unlock functionality, although I believe it has already been enabled with the latest update. KEEP THE REGION SET TO HONG KONG. Do not change it back as this will disable VoLTE. Region does not affect languages or other phone functionality, so it is safe to keep it this way.

XQ-AT52 VoLTE or Wifi Calling in Canada

Hello,
I have the XQ-AT52 in Canada and using it on Fido and works on their LTE network just fine, but I do not get the VoLTE nor Wifi calling options to allow me to enable them. Anyone know if its possible to get them enabled? If so, how?
good question...i'm thinking about the same issue for German provider but befor ordering it 0_o
You should
dial *#*#4636#*#*
choose Phone information.
click " Phone Information"
If your provider support Volte, you should see switchable "VOLTE Provisioned"
Switch it on and Restart the phone and you are done
ps: my provider doesn't not support Volte and my option is not switchable

My provider does support VoLTE and wifi callling, and I have those capability on my old phone, Huawei Mate 20 Pro. So it looks like the hardware or software of the XQ-AT52 does not allow VoLTE to be turned on, atleast in Canada.

Question Not seeing Network Preference under Enable Wifi Calling Tmobile USA

Hello
I just got this phone and set it up. Its a Global version 13.0.4 SKDMIXM.
I am on TMoblie USA - the phone is working great on LTE and 5G .
I am not able to see the Network preference under wifi calling where is can select Prefered Wifi Calling.
It appears that its running on default Prefered Cellular - because I can only see the VoLTE symbol on top.
Can someone help me in fixing this configuration to select Prefered Wifi Calling ? TIA

Hello, I'm using a 11T Pro Dual SIM India model with India SIM in Slot 1 and TMO SIM in Slot 2.
I have not found the specific setting to make Wifi Calling "Preferred" but, my phone does indicate Vo WiFi even when I have Wifi connected and Mobile Data turned on too once Wifi Calling is enabled as below.
Apparently the Voice Over WiFi Settings (at least here on my phone) only show up for SIM 1, does not show for SIM 2.
Attached are sample screenshots where the Settings are under SIM 1.
Steps to get there-
Settings > SIM cards & mobile networks > Click on SIM 1
All the way down, last Setting is "Wi-Fi Calls" to enable "Make calls using Wi-Fi".
Hope this helps.

Operators can disable this menu if they want to lock you onto Wifi preferred or cellular preferred. Does this only happen with this phone or does it also happen with the SIM in another Android phone?

There's a possibility of TMO-US not supporting WiFi calling on the Xiaomi 11T (Global), perhaps.
Although, I have been using various Unlocked phones (Nokia & Samsung) on TMO-US for the past few years & have practically never had issues with WiFi calling on any. Shall have to test it once I'm back. Won't be for some time.
Is your phone on the latest firmware? Try updating it to check if there's a new update available
which hopefully can solve your issue.
Couple of options to test, in case you have not already tested them-
a) leave WiFi Calling Enabled then disable the VoLTE feature and check if WiFi calling works?
b) disable Mobile Data, WiFi Calling enabled with WiFi connected and check if WiFi Calling works.
c) some users have had to ensure their E911 address is correctly in place on the TMO account too.

I had a working One Plus 6 - so I know TMO has VoWifi - I use it a lot due to poor reception at home .
The current workaround to force VoWIFI is
Turn On Airplane MOde
Turn ON WiFi only
then it works in VOWIFI with out any issues
I know I am missing a menu Item that can toggle this setting . I would prefer having that setting but its not a breaker for now . The phone works with all the Network features of TMO , LTE , 4G , 5G etc . No visual voicemail thats all.
Thanks

Perhaps you might want to give this a try-

Thanks - this code is what got me to where I am now . I think from other articles - the mbn config may require some tweaking - but it refuses to give me access to it when i use *#*#663368378#*#*
Same access issue here too.
Wish you luck.
Pinging to see if there is a soln. in future.
