So I call up my carrier and ask them to activate Volte on my sim number. Carrier verified that it's activated within 30 mins and once I switch it on in my phones menu it'll work.
Restarted phone but no change in the settings? No Volte option..
Searched a lil and found some mixed answers between flashing AL-00 and the US version to get the menu to show up.
I even installed shortcut master to get to the hidden sub menu but all I was able to find was wifi calling, no Volte..
Anyone in my situation that was able to get it to work? A friend of mine went as far as updating to a new sim to get Volte working on his iPhone... Could the sim be an issue? Could a software update/rebrand fix it for me?
I'd like to try everything from my side before paying for a new sim with no guarantee that it'll work..
Any help is much appreciated

Has anyone got this working, the icon is enabled but it's not showing up.
Volte only works iff you buy a volte compatible phone from 3 shop. It has to be one of there phones or its blocked. Unlike on O2 iff the phone is volte compatible it even works with some of there pay as you go phones. For this reason i am going to leave 3 after my contract finishes.

My last phone was a phone not sold in the UK but that worked?
Which phone was it and where did you buy it I know for a fact that any phone which has volte but not bought through 3 store will have the volte IMS service blocked because you need there version of Android firmware for it to work. I have had many arguments with 3 customer support over this.
the Volte and Wifi Settings are blocked by OP in their official firmware because they need the carrier to allow the settings on their phones. Some Asian imported phone manufacturers sometimes disobey them and allow it but this is not the norm.
Have you noticed that when you put in a sim from a major operator in the uk the internet/mms etc settings are usually auto configured?
three for example, configure their sims to block any 'non authorised' phone to auto download the required settings to enable wifi calling and volte.
This means that the only way of bypassing it (a bit like Sammy csc changing) is if there is a custom ROM available with the three settings pre loaded. EE are the only network that are essentially a 'slut' and allow their settings to (on the most part) be uploaded to any compatible phone.
I get 100 gig a month, unltd calls and text from Three for a ridiculously low £15 per month. I WILL NOT give that up !!!!
as much as i want an OP6 im sticking with a tried and tested Samsung S9 plus that to be frank is just as fast on the most part, and you can easily load three or whatever branded software to enable all the wifi calling and volte goodies.
O2 allow this also. The only real way to get volte working on a non 3 handset is when 3 release there factory stock images eventually and they can be flashed after rooting. Even with custom roms volte will not work for instance lineage etc although volte is implemented still doesnt work. I had bought a lenovo p2 a few years ago and volte did not work for a whole year untill 3 factory images were released and i rooted the phone and installed the 3 firmware then it started working. 3 are real scumbags in this regard.

all u need to get three volte working is essentially the ims settings, ive seen people being able to get three volte and wifi calling working on various grey imports. But agreed its a very convoluted process.
All one plus's use their own firmware, they dont have carrier versions like samsung and others ...
That is correct the only way oneplus would have volte settings is iff 3 sold oneplus on contract otherwise it is a difficult process. I would be very interested nevertheless iff someone in the future figured out a way to get volte working on a non 3 phone other than using there firmware. By the way i am not a oneplus owner but in fact i have a xiaomi mi6 but i am in the same boat ref volte.

Unfortunately, I was able to flash the H3G firmware onto my Italian source S8 and use both VoLTE and VoWiFi without ever speaking to Three, same applied to the unbranded S9 I got from CPW SIM free!

I have access to a OP5T and VoLTE and VoWiFi both worked out of the box!
My Pixel 2 - not a chance!
It's easy my dude, there are some bugs with it but hey you can't have both of the best world just yet.
Tutorial : Open Magisk - > Go to Downloads - > Search for VoEnabler - > Reboot - > Activate the VoWiFi and VoLTE in the settings. - > SUCCESS.
Bugs? Only bug I found is that every time someone calls you it will say Unknown (While on VoWiFi, haven't checked on VoLTE yet.)
Let me know how you get on
Three VoLTE working here too using Vo Enabler.
Sorry i am in the weird situation although im not a oneplus 6 owner. I have a xiaomi Mi6 and i used the module voenabler and now i can make calls over wifi but the enhanced Lte option in settings has vanished completely and in the 4636 settings the option for wifi calling became available but the volte option is now greyed out.
I have got VOWIFI working on 3 with pie, I upgraded to 9.0.0 then did this
Dialled *#800#
Went into OnePlus logkit
Went into Function Switch and checked VOWIFI and VOLTE then rebooted
The options now appear in SIM settings and you can turn them on or off.
When I installed 9.0.1 the Function switch options had been removed but as I had already turned them on the SIM options persisted On installing 9.0.2 the Function Switch settings had returned but with a dev test warning.
I have entered airplane mode, turned on WiFi then made and received a call.
The 3 IMS was automatically configured
And some screenshots
I was able to active vowifi but volte is not registering, I did notice that when I connect to WiFi a do a call and during the call I disconnect the WiFi volte start working but only on that call after the call finish it discomect and goes back to no volte. This is on three UK with Pie using the logkit.
@crazdgrunt99 does volte still works for you using the vo enabler?
Got Volte working with 3UK
I got Volte working in my OP6 with 3UK. I used the softwares mentioned here - https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/how-to/guide-volte-vowifi-german-carriers-t3817542
I only installed the softwares mentioned and used *#800# oneplus logkit to enable volte/vowifi options- after that I followed other method used by Jamal , guy who figured out these methods for OP6 (please take EFS backup before this procedure)
Open EFS explorer that is part of qpst software, select your phone , it will start loading directory and files-
Once the directory structure is loaded , go to following path - nv/item_files/modem/mmode
Open the attachment with this post. Delete all files that are same name as in the attachment from Mmode directory in EFS explorer. Note some files are not there. After deletion load the files from attachment to EFS explorer - load as item files - you can select all and load
Reboot phone and it should have Volte working.
Now that A10 is available for the OP6, I can confirm VoLTE working on both OB1 and the production version, at last. (no hacks required)
What about WiFi calling that works too
If I do the whole *#800# thing in the dialer I do not have the function switches for volte and vowifi either. I am not sure how to go about enabling this option and getting around AT&Ts ridiculous policies.
Somebody somewhere posted a workaround. Something about put your sim in your phone, call ATT, go to L2 support, tell them to manually provision it, and give them an IMEI from an iPhone.
But yeah, I'm sure any work around from any OnePlus phone will work, if they exist. this isn't a 7-specific problem
I have the european variant LM-V500EM of LG V50 which I was under the impression had a wifi calling / vowifi option. I've used the quickshortcut maker app and can see the option is there in the backend of the settings com.android.settings.Settings$Wifi CallingSettingsActivity. I can even open it and toggle it to on but it doesn't appear to do anything and still won't show in the regular call settings.
I've spoken to a number of UK networks who say it should work and spoken to LG directly who say wifi calling is unavailable for this variant/model and only the EE variant has WIFI calling. It's pretty frustrating that a function which the phone clearly is capable of is unusable.
Has anyone got any workarounds for this as I'm tearing my hair out here and don't want to have to sell the phone as apart from this it's great.
Thanks
I've been in engineering mode *#546368#*500# and SVC Menu / VoWIFI / W-Fi Toggle to ON but wifi calling still doesn't appear in the main settings.
Can this be enabled OTA by the right network carrier eg. EE , 3 etc ?
I've got the same phone, same problem.

Hi,
What is EE variant? I never seen it before and I can't find it in net.
I know only those variants:
V450PM
V450VM
V500EM
V500N
I have an Oukitel WP15 and really like the phone apart from it not using VoLTE. Anybody have any ideas as to how to get it working on this phone? The test mode has the sliders greyed out and IMS Service Status has it listed as "unavailable." I know it's supported by the service as the phone it came out of it worked just fine (apart from it being a bit flakey, but I always blamed the phone). Is there some way of forcing the VoLTE flag to be on? I am reasonably competent and know what you're talking about if you mention ADB, but not particularly savvy. Thanks!
EDIT: OK, apparently I figured it out (at least to a degree) by just messing around with all the preferred network types in the test menu. If anybody else is having the same issue I changed the preferred network type to "NR/LTE" then rebooted and it immediately turned VoLTE on as well as wifi and video calling on...so I guess I'm good!
EDIT 2: OK, does anybody have any recommendations on what network type to use? NR/LTE/WCDMA and TDSCDMA both turn on VoLTE but NR/LTE/CDMA/EvDo (which is what I suspect SHOULD be the correct one) doesn't. I'm using Verizon in the US, btw.
