VOLTE on rooted device? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5

Anyone know how to get VOLte working on their Note 5 while rooted?
It worked on my Note 4 using stock kernel, or an older version of Emotion kernel,
but haven't been able to use it yet with rooted Note 5. The call always fails before connecting.

VoLTE worked fine on my rooted N5 using 2 different kernels. Unfotunetly I get dropped calls when driving by certain parts of my area so I have is disabled.

Are you sure it was actually using lte for voice? The only reason I ask is that when I place a call with the 'use VoLTE when available' option checked, my phone always switches to 4g before connecting the call.
If I try making a call while in "Lte Only" network mode the call just ends instantly, as soon as I hit send.

With VoLTE enabled my phone stays on LTE when making a call (when LTE is available). With VoLTE disabled my phone will always switch to 4G when making a call & will switch back to LTE as soon as the call has ended.
VoLTE works fine for me if I'm stationary but when I'm driving through certain areas where LTE service is spotty I get dropped calls. I don't have that issue with it turned off.
This is exactly what I experienced before my phone was rooted also.

[q] calls with 3g on

Hi people!!
Since i own this mobile, i've used several official and custom ROMS and i detect that when i'm using 3g phone calls do not work properly. I have to reboot the phone to be able to call (or receive a call) properly but after the first call i detect this issue: when i call i do not hear anything, the same if i receive a call...
Anybody knows how to deal with this issue?
Thanks in advance!
do not create posts for small issues, we already have FAQ topic for roms/mods/known issues etc., this question will suit there. keep our board clean.

No offence brother but its for the ROMs / MODs related issues only. Moreover if stop people from making threads then we'll never get a Q & A section like others have & our general section will be always messed up. That is because the criteria for getting the section is to have at least 1000 threads or 10000 posts in the General section, so it would be in our interests to allow people post and make threads. We'll get a cleaner General section in return.
I think he's taking about calls made using the network.

Are you talking about normal voice calls on 3G ? Or video calls on 3G ?
I have made & received voice calls via the network while on 3G without any problems. Check if its a network related problem by using different network providers SIM card.
Your problem could also be caused due to plugging & unplugging of the headset from our handset. To solve it you'll have to plug & unplug the headset a couple of times and then check if its solved. Search for a thread within the general section here itself related to the headset problem to get more details.
Hope this helps.
I mean normal phone calls with 3g activated. It's the situation when i'm not able to make or receive phone calls or receive them properly: if i switch off data connection then phone calls work again properly, if i change data connection to H+ phone calls work properly, or when i have wifi on phone calls work ok. It's only when i have 3G activated that phone calls do not work properly...
Hope it's understood!!!

This is a pretty peculiar issue buddy, I suggest you to temporarily switch the SIM being used in the handset to confirm whether or not it's network related issue.
BTW how do to switch between H+ and 3G data networks?
Here in India it switches automatically depending on the coverage available.
Do update us on the progress.
^^
i think its 3g whn its just connected in 3g mode and becomes H whn we start downloading or some data transfr work initiates....
I rarely see H+ in my cell
I think these symbol denotes speed of the network data and thrs no way to switch between 3G or H+

3g means 3g capable network, when data transfer is in progress it will display as H or H+.
H=HSDPA/HSUPA NETWORK(3 or 7 mbps line)
H+=HSPA+ (21 mbps line)

I have seen that problem several times but it was always on T-Mobile and it was always a switching problem. I don't know if Metro using the same setup or not. You could check in settings and make sure you are using the preferred network.
Yup on preferred network,frustrating I can't figure it out.

no wifi calling and voLTE on three on HTC U11

is there any way of getting this, three says its enabled, I see its available on S8 and people are using it, but seems like HTC U11 is neglected
On Three UK
WiFi calling only works if you're on a reasonably good 4g signal. In call settings, at the very bottom you should see "enhanced call service" with options "voice over lte" and "wifi calling". Enable them.

Huh? lol
This is SO wrong. WiFi calling is for people who are getting a bad signal over the mobile network. If you had a good signal, why would you want to call over wifi? If you have a limit on your account for voice calls, wifi calling will still count against that. It's not VoIP.
Okay further to this, I tried H3G rom on htc and US unlocked ( i have S-off).
Dont find the option of enhanced call service. I believe sim has to play part in that, as when I put this sim in oneplus 5T it did not show enhanced call setting but when i put EE uk sim settings magically appeared
Now I am making calls on 4G so i take it its VOLTE its working on its own. dont find option of wifi calling in rom itself
I had essential phone for couple of days, it had wificalling activated on the same sim and no VOLTE, such a shame. i cant have both in single device

How to enable VoLTE or how to tell if it is using VoLTE?

I just got the Pixel 4a and I'm trying to figure out if it is using VoLTE for calls. I am still on android 10 and my carrier is Red Pocket over the verizon network. I chatted with Red Pocket customer service and they said that they enabled VoLTE on my line.

I think a good indicator of you using VoLTE would be an "HD" tag sitting next to your call time counter (see attached). The only problem to have HD voice enabled for the given call, is that both you and your calling party have to have VoLTE on.
While on a phone call, try to do something like go to your phone internet browser and go to a website. If the 4g signal icon goes away and you have no data on the browser it is a probable you dont have volte. Make sure your wifi is off while doing this.

I tried this and when calling, the LTE status icon disappears and I can't access the internet.
Is there something on the phone I need to enable for VoLTE? I've poked around in settings and I can't find anything.
OP here. Thanks all. I contacted Red Pocket and found out that VoLTE was not enabled on my line, despite saying it was enabled in an earlier call. As soon as they enabled it, I rebooted the phone. Now the calls connect and the LTE status indicator stays on while a call is connected. I din'd have to do anything on the Pixel

How to enable VoLTE for LG V50 (Korean U+)

How to enable VoLTE on the korean U+? I've checked with my carrier and they confirmed that VoLTE service is active on my SIM. However I can't find any option to enable VoLTE in phone settings. I've only seen a VoLTE call quality option in phone settings - not sure if this means that it's already active. The status bag logo also shows just LTE when mobile data is enabled - no indication of VoLTE.
If you have mobile data showing LTE and it does not change to 3G (or something else) when you make or receive a call, then you are on VoLTE. That is my general understanding of it.

Ah ok. It seems you are not on VoLTE then. Sorry, I don't know how to activate it though.
i have the sprint version but am currently on tmobile network which (was switching me to 3g) during voice call or txt msg.
now that tmobile has been taking down 3g (and they are working on a tower in my area) i do not even see 3g symbol in notifications anymore. i can complete the call and there is no lte symbol or 3g symbol but call completes but can not use data still.
when i hang up i see lte and can use data (browse the web)
the funny thing is before i went to tmobile i had metro pcs in this area which uses tmobile network and i never had a volte problem so you know this is software and they just want us to buy more phones.
this exact phone worked on metropcs with volte no problem.
