Colleague over from HK on business with a Mi 11 to give to me as a gift (he a business contact and very generous). Wondering if it will be compatible with Three UK WiFi Calling and VOLTE? If not will just give to my mother and stick with my Note 20 Ultra until the s21 or OP9 etc
You probably have your answer by now, but for other people coming here: works fine for me with EE - UK
Hi All,
I am wonder if someone have checked WiFi and VoLTE calling in Australia (Telstra, Optus)?

Hey everyone,
Basically, i live in Canada and i am with Rogers, one of the big three wireless networks down here. I ended up buying a note 8 from Samsung USA directly since i got a really good offer, saved about 60% off the note 8 compared to price in Canada.
My problem now is that i can longer use VOLTE, WI-FI calling or even caller ID & spam protection (greyed out).
Is there anything that i could do to enable this settings? I am not sure if i can flash the N950W firmware on my phone, haven't really flashed anything on a samsung since my note 5.
Can someone please help me out with this?
I was wondering which Note 9 model to buy that I can use in India also for Volte services. Currently I am in the USA I most likely will be spending majority of the next 5 years here. During this time, I will occasionally be travelling out of the country so I wanna make sure that the handset I buy here supports GSM/CDMA and Volte features that will enable me to use Volte services (like Jio) in India.
Basically, I wanna make sure my handset is travel-proof. Getting me?
Hello everyone,
Could you help me answering my questions?
I'm planning to buy Samsung S21 Ultra, so I was searching for good prices here and there...
I found out that on Samsung US, it is much cheaper (Unlocked version), moreover, you'll get 250$ credit value to buy other accessories, while Samsung Canada is way too expensive without such promotions!
I tried to place the order through Samsung US and to type the shipping address to Canada .m.but unfortunately it wasn't working!
My two questions as following:
1- Is there anyway to get the S21 Ultra to Canada from Samsung US?
2- I heard that I might face problems in connection compatibility (even with the unlocked version), especially the 5G as it won't be compatible with the Canadian courriers ....so is that true? Will I face any problem if I buy S21 Ultra from Samsung US to Canada?
Will appreciate your replies ...
Thanks
Depending on your carrier in Canada, Wifi Calling and VoLTE may not/will not work. Here is a long thread about purchasing from the US etc. This will answer all your questions:
[Samsung USA] Samsung USA S21 Trade-In Deal Thread - RedFlagDeals.com Forums
i have the W version with the US U1 software on it (I love ODIN) and works it great on Telus for 5G (except the Wi-Fi calling; Telus asks for your number and then it never connects but I also have a partner account so maybe that is why). On Freedom Mobile/Shaw Mobile with the U1 software, everything works (except 5G as that is not available for everyone yet).
Thanks
May I know which re-shipping company had you dealt with? Any recommendations?

It is the Canadian version bought in Canada flashed with the US U1 software
Does anyone own an Hong Kong version outside of Hong Kong?
If so, what are your experiences in terms of:
1. What country are you using it?
2. Does VoLTE Work?
3. Does Wifi Calling Work?
4. Both sim slot capable of 5G?
5. Samsung Pay work?
6. Call Recording?
Using G9980 HK version in Australia. No issues. VOLTE and wifi calling works. 5G works very well on SIM slot 2 only, not on SIM 1. No call recording. Have not tried Samsung Pay I use Google Pay.
Im in japan right now, and 4g works in both sims,volte works, in options could put 2 sims on 5g, but here dont have 5g yet.
in case someone else interested:
- Austria
- everything except for Samsung Pay and Call Recording works on my side
- 5G not tested, but shown as option

Cheers

I'm with Optus. I had to activate 5G though the Optus app not sure if you might have to do that with Telstra or call Telstra support to make sure 5G activated
Interested in UK users experiences with getting network features working fully.
Does WiFi calling, volte , visual voicemail, 4G+ and 5G, GPay et al work for you?
What ROM? What carrier?
Did you have to disable carrier checks? Or did it work out the box?
Also non region specific stuff too I guess , android auto experience etc etc.
I'm on a contract with EE.
VOLTE, WiFi calling, 4G+, 5G and Google Pay all working without any issues straight out the box. I don't use Android auto so I can't comment on that I'm afraid. CN ROM currently on MIUI 12.5 stable.
Great stuff. Thanks for the reply.
Where did you buy from ?

I bought mine from TradingShenzhen here: https://tradingshenzhen.com/en/mi-1...omi-mi-11-ultra-12gb256gb-ultimate-of-android
I didn't have to pay any import tax or custom fees. You can also buy from Wondamobile which they say won't incur any import charges either: https://www.wondamobile.com/xiaomi-mi-11-ultra-5g-12gb-ram-256gb-dual-sim-unlocked.html
Yeah, I have used Wonda a few times. Going to go with TS this time to see how it goes.
Hopefully sell my old Note 20U soon.

I'm now in 12.5.2 EU rom, and on Vodafone UK.
Still no 4G+/CA. 5G does work but nPerf states it's 4G. VoLTE, VoWiFi, GPay all fine.
Be interested to know if anyone gets CA working on Vodafone UK with the Global or EEA rom. May have to wait to see what version is released in the UK.
Yip. I have ordered today from TS.
I have a EE work SIM, but use Sky personality. Will be interesting if all works with them as they are quite restrictive on device support.
I don't get 4G+ CA anywhere locally anyway, but bizarrely get 5G at the end of my harbour pier .
Will have to see if it's worth flashing global ROM next month after the UK release. Everything points to the CN being more than usable after tweaking though.
I was on Chinese stock, now global. Sky and EE work fine on both, I use them too.
Global obviously does have full Google services, not the mini pack that was on the Chinese but for some reason they use Google's phone, contacts and text app, so no native call recording. Global is still on original firmware where before flashing I had 12.5 which was a delight, hopefully 12.5 will hit the Global soon.
I will go Xiaomi EU ROM if and when a twrp is released or the fastboot bricking issue has been well resolved. I used EU version on my 10 ultra and it is a dam good ROM.
Brilliant.
@Sathelp
Does volte and WiFi calling work on SKY on CN ? ( Whilst I wait on bl unlock for Global )
Thanks

Quoted you incase you didn't see question above re sky WiFi calling etc.
Thanks again.
I did tested download speeds on chinese version of Mi 11 Ultra and guess what ? I am getting only 3.66 mb/s on GG network that runs on O2 architecture if im not mistaking .
Before i bought the phone i verified all the network bands and it should be compatible with all Uk carriers on 4 and 5G .
May it be some setting or something ? I tried 2 different speed test services .

Were you getting 4G+ before, and now not, maybe?
