ZTE Axon M - ZTE Axon M Questions & Answers

Hi,
I Just purchased an Axon M. Now I live in the Netherlands. The phone does use internet, so the APN settings are correct, but for some reason I can use chat, but has problems opening videos. On Wifi the phoen works great, but on its own it does not work properly. Like it remains stuck on 3 G? Is there something I have to change on the WCDMA/LET settings?
Kind regards,
Gerrit.

I have also struggled to find a sim card compatible with this phone. I believe AT&T bands or frequency is different to many in Europe. Our imported models were exclusive to AT&T.

Can't Activate Note8, fails on configuration with Sprint & Boom Mobile

Hi Guys, I'm wondering if someone more knowledgeable can help advise. I've spent 12 hours and cant activate my Unlocked Qualcomm Note8 on any of my service providers (SMN-950U1.)
I want to use it on Boom Mobile Red (Verizon MVNO)
I cant get the Network Operator to configure, when I select Verizon it fails on configuration. I'm not referring to APN because I do not even get calls, the Operator is listed as "Emergency Calls Only". The Sim works perfect on my Pixel XL and iPhone 7 Plus. This phone was purchased unlocked form Samsung direct with clean IMEI. I called Samsung and they have no idea, they said the phone is defective, which I believe it is not.
I had an issue activating with Sprint and still have not had Data working, though I was able to get calls. I've given up w/ Sprint and will upgrade that line with a iPhone X.
I inserted my friends Verizon Post Paid Sim from his Moto Mod phone and everything was perfect (calls, TM, LTE calling) and the phone got LTE+. Is it possible the Note8 unlocked will only work with the big 4 carriers, ST and TW? I read a similar issue people from Boost Mobile have when they insert their sims it says invalid Sim. I really have no idea what is going on - Boom doesn't have many customers and their support team has never delt with this issue, they said the phone is defective. Has anyone been able to use a Unlocked Note8 on Boom? I've tried flashing various variants of firmware, including Verizon with no success. I'm puzzled with what is going on.

WiFi Calling

Has anyone going WiFi calling working on your Nokia 7 plus? I'm on Vodafone in the UK but have also tried an ID SIM.
I have got WiFi calling enabled by Vodafone but the option doesn't appear in the phone. I'm moving to a house with no signal so this will be pretty essential.
Any ideas?
I'm on a TA-1055 with the July patch.
Wifi calling and Volte work on BT Mobile and I suspect EE.
Vodafone seem to only allow devices purchased from them with their firmware on and I don't think they do a Nokia 7 Plus therefore it doesn't work.

Thanks @Ollie2. I have called Vodafone several times and they've always directed me to their page which lists the approved phones (Nokia 7 plus isn't one!).
I've logged a complaint as deliberately turning the function off if you haven't bought the phone from them seems to be anti-competetive and, frankly, a bad business model. I'll be leaving them for EE as soon as my contract ends.
The whole wifi calling and Volte situation on Android is a complete mess. I think the blame lies with both networks and the manufacturers.
Since Android 6 there has been a mechanism to add the correct details for Volte and Wifi calling to work without having to have a custom firmware for each network but lots choose not to utilise it.
With security updates being releases by the manufacturers having to wait for the networks to change a test their firmware seems ridiculous and networks and manufacturers should work to a standard that just works. That said I imagine that is easier said than done.
EE seem to be better than the rest but they're not perfect either.

AT&T to Chinese rom?

Guys I've just bought one AT&T Axon 7 without checking the bands so it appears I'll get only 2G here in the UK. I'm still waiting on the unlock code to arrive so I'll test it later on but is it possible to flash the Chinese rom and radio on the AT&T version to unlock the necessary LTE bands?
Problems may occur.

It may not be possible to restore it if the model number is different.
When I burned ROM of Japanese version Z-01K in China version Z999, problems occurred in mobile data communication, there was nothing to change from Z999 to Z-01K, but when I tried to restore it An error has appeared if the model number is different.

That doesn't sound very promising. I guess I got myself a WiFi tablet...kinda.

Have you found a way to get the Axon M to work on 4G in the UK?
And on what network are you? I'm on O2, and I have no signal at all. It doesn't find any network.

2G is only available in some remote Scottish lands so no workaround unfortunately.

I thought 2G had to do with the internet speed (EDGE speed), not with the actual phone signal for normal phone calles
What did you do then? Ditched the phone?

Returned back to seller for another reason but otherwise it would've gone back to ebay hoping to get some money back.

WiFi calling?

Hi, I was wondering if WiFi calling is something that I can enable or do I have to get in touch with Motorola or my network provider (3 three UK)? I used to have it on my older phone (honor play) without having to change settings. It's the same network and same SIM.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks
You can turn it on in the expand settings of mobilnetwork.

I dont have that option
EE only
I have found out that it is only available on EE (UK) even though I had it on my old honor play,
must be an exclusivity with them or something,
kinda sucks but nothing I can do
Hello,
I have also Moto G7 plus and Vodafone CZ. Vodafone CZ supports WiFi calling but for the phones with their firmware. Since they have never sold this phone I can't get their firmware (because it doesn't exist) to activate WiFi calling. Is there any workaround on how to do it, please?
Thank you!
You can try:
Dial *# *#4636# *# * -- >Phone Information --> switch on 'WiFi Calling Provisioning'
This will more likely be greyed out if your carrier doesnt specifically offer/support the device your on. My carrier (Bell Canada) supports wifi calling, however ONLY on devices they sell, not brought into their network. So for me I can't enable it as they only support the G7 Play, not the plus. I called my carrier support and there was nothing they could do to force provisioning on there end, but may vary carrier to carrier. Its a pretty rediculous exclusivity thing, gives them a way to try and force your hand into buying a carrier specific device.
I have got the same when I dial *# *#4636# *# *. I can' turn it on Carrier said they can't help me.
Edit: for some reason I can't insert an image.

Wifi Calling

Hello All!
Im new at this topic, because some weeks ago, i bought a z3 play phone, i coming from a moto maxx (quark) from motorola..
I want to know how i can enable vowifi/ wifi calling for use with my z3 play, because i cant found this option on the menu, when i search it, only appears the option for "enhanced 4G mode" that include Volte calls (volte works well and wifi calling works in other phones but with my z3 play no) but i want use with wifi calling, currently im using android pie, and the model is, XT1929-6, opencl channel.
can some one help me with this?, could be useful change to other stock rom?, opencl -> retla, or retail?, the current software compilation is: PPWS29.131-27-1-11
Thanks you a lot!

What mobile carrier do you have? That's the determining factor since it works just fine with some carriers as is

I have bought this phone on carrier called claro, if I install lineage or resurrection remix could be use wifi calling or volte ?
I mean what carrier are you using it on? If you using Claro Argentina then perhaps it should work. If you're trying to use it on another ClaroNetwork I'm not sure. you need to specify what network and what country that you're going to use it on as well as what network and what country the model is. For Verizon they only support Wi-Fi calling on models they sell. The same with AT&T.

My carrier is claro chile, in my case. When I use other simcard(with volte is working on other phone) in this phone. Not works, but if I use the. Claro simcard only appears volte.
I want to know if flash the resurrection remix. For example, could be possible use both services. But I’m not sure if this work or not. Up today I don’t know for someone that are using resurrection that says if volte / vowifi works in this custom rom.
