I own my Moto G Turbo Edition(XT1557). I bought this device two months back. But motorola had seriously disappointed me by announcing that they excluded this device from Nougat update. So I have planned to install CyanogenMod 14(Android 7.1) on my device. But it does not include VoLte support. My question is.. Will any custom rom supports VoLte? If not. can anyone tell me the clear reason. Or do I have any other way to update to nougat with VoLTE support? Please reply. Thank you

Cause volte require some codes that are kept confidential by motorola . If motorola release those then anybody can do illegal activities like changing the telphone values to a level beyond govt limit.

lol are you serious? if so, then congratulations! that's the dumbest thing anyone has said all year!
let's just call it a repeating forum, or better yet the VoLTE forum, since all you VoLTE guys need so much support and cant seem to do any reading whatsoever before asking the same questions over and over and OVER
@WaxysDargle does have a good point. to many people are asking every f*cking day for volte without doing any research
people who actually do some research know that volte doesnt work and are getting tired of constantly telling this to everyone.
the worst part is that all the people (that dont look at our lovely forum for like 1 minute to find a simple answer) FULLY ignore us,
We should get a mod pinning a thread explaining this..... or place a warning on every damn inch of this website
if you cant understand this, i hope you hardbrick your device
It's not always possible to retain every feature in custom rom world, they need to learn that.
As for why, this is a difficult question. Maybe the carrier JIO works somehow differently than rest of the carriers using VoLTE all over the world (there were a few as far as I know). To understand this, you need to understand how the phone radio works.
Okay, so, a radio chip (with an antennae) can send and recieve radio waves and the information contained in them. Now that can be inefficient if every company is allowed to implement it in it's own way, it can also cause interference and fragmentation. Hence there are restrictions over the usage of radio. As computers work according to what they are programmed to, anyone who can peek into the code can manipulate the radio e.g unlocking bands or using nonstandard frequencies. A whole lot possibilities are there.
In android, the radio is controlled by something called RIL (Radio Interface Layer). This is already nicely documented here - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_Interface_Layer.
https://afewe.wordpress.com/android...ith-the-radio-layer-interface-ril-in-android/
Now RIL code can't be directly released to the public due to the aforementioned reasons. So pre-compiled blobs (somewhat like portable windows executable .exe files) are given instead that can be used directly when cooking a rom. But it's very hard (and perhaps illegal) to decompile and reverse engineer it.
We don't know if JIO has standard implementation for VoLTE. There is much rumor surrounding this and the carrier itself. We can't experiment it much either. That makes it hard to answer this question.
Edit : This is all I know so far, any corrections are welcome.

Hi,
I am from India and planning to buy Windows Phone 7 on my birthday which is very soon . But I had some update related queries which the seller could not answer.
The updates which are released by Microsoft will be also available in India, right? Will the updated be free like Android provides or will they come for a price. Can someone clarify and provide information regarding this topic.
Regards.
Microsoft will push updates to all phones either via the zune software on your pc or via the carriers, carriers are allowed to skip 1 update cycle but only one ( unlike android where carriers are under no obligation to send out updates). As far as I know updates will be free.
Thank you adesonic for the reply . Was unaware of the fact that MS has imposed such rule which for end users is great unlike Android which I entirely agree with you. As for update using zune does that mean that I can connect to WiFi and download and install updates as and when available?
Need to know about the updates are free or not.
Another Thread?

There are several other threads dealing with "guesses" about future updates. Do we really need to start another thread on this subject? I realize the other threads are getting lengthy but it would be best to post your questions there, IMO.
Hi James, I have searched the forum and found several threads related to updates but all of them focused on what features are going to be released to the user and their probable date but none seems to answer my query.
That's why started the thread. Can you please direct me to a thread which is discussing me the same content. Would appreciate that.
Btw any input on the update part ?

I am not trying to be an obstructionsit at all, just trying to give you some advice. The other "update" threads have many more posters and viewers. You stand a much better chance at getting an educated guess from one of the other threads in that there are more people involved who can advise you.

So it looks like both the Xperia and Galaxy dudes can enjoy unlocked LTE bands on their Qualcomm powered phones. I found this tutorial here
I was able to go through the entire tutorial. The problem is that upon reboot the settings will revert back to their original parameters.
Has anyone have successfully unlock world LTE bands on the LG D820..?
Also while trying to backup the original configuration of my phone using the QPST tool, my Nexus asks for an "SPC" unlock code which i do not know what it is... The software fails to retrieve the dump because of lack of this code.... does anyone know how to retrieve this code from the phone..? i sure do not know what it is...
This is not a galaxy. Not one person in this forum has "unlocked", "activated" of "added" any LTE bands. What's more, this question is asked on a daily basis.

All the threads i have found so far as in regards to what works out of the box in other areas... modem flashes and so on... nothing proactive like the threads i have found in other forums..... There are Chinese dudes using their D820 in china right now...? how do i know..? i got results through Google in Chinese. The problem is that when you push those sites through translate, they dont make any sense. Furthermore, illustration materials posted are all in Chinese since they are graphics..... But really nothing in regards to how to unlock Qualcomm devices for other LTE bands... there is a difference... It may seem to you that they are the same but the questions are NOT.... i have posted the threads so that you can perhaps put down the sniper rifle and do some clicking... and read..!!!! nothing more..! if you have heard or read anything, awesome..! post it...! if you haven't then perhaps this would be an opportunity to check out these threads.

You seem to be ignoring the facts. There are threads here discussing modifying the LTE bands at length. No one here, on XDA has managed to unlock, activate or add LTE bands to the nexus 5. I know this because I've ready every single thread in the nexus 5 forum about LTE bands. I've read every answer and read every link similar too those that you posted today. No one here has done it. I've told you this no less than 3 times now.

all right.... like i said! i have successfully rewritten the NV Bands String from stock to one that supports European bands. It loads it in memory and it seems to work well switching from Edge to HSPA+ very quickly unlike the stock string that took for ever to do the same switching.... haven't tested LTE because there is none in my area.... the problem is that upon new NV bands strings gets overwritten by the default string and the problem ensues... i will try to head on to Regensburg tomorrow and test

I've only had my S6 for a couple weeks so mine was already updated to the latest OTA version by the time I got it, and so I can't use pingpong. I don't mean to be redundant and post this question if it has already been asked but I can't find any other info at the moment in this forum, but does anybody know if anything is in the works for the current version that it would be worth holding off on the upcoming 5.1 OTA? Or is the root that you first wave guys got to use probably a one-time thing for this phone? Coming from an HTC one where I was able to unlock my bootloader I am starting to miss having root...
If a new Root is available, you will SEE it all over the forums... no need to ask.

Yeah don't bother reading the question before posting a dumb pretentious answer to it. I asked if one was being WORKED ON that was worth holding off on the OTA for, not if one was available now.
I agree.. Lots of jerks in these forums.. I check regularly to see if a root method is available BUT ALSO to see the progress if any.. Simple yes or no or say nothing .. No need to be an ass.

I'm not sure if a root method is being worked on for the current update but I can tell you that the exploit for pingpong has been patched so that is a one time thing. I think our best bet for the next method will be when 5.1 comes out.

No, everyone has given up all hope and quit.
Seriously, what kind of answer to you think you would get?
The people working on it are rarely going to talk about it until they actually have a solution unless they are working with other developers trying out possible solutions. None of it is going to be public until they have a solution to prevent the MFG or vendors from plugging up a new hole they found before they can use it.
Asking if it is being worked on is just plain dumb. This is the same cycle of every new device that has ever been released with the same questions asked all over again.
What really is the point in asking? IF and when it becomes available it will be big news splashed all over the forums not just here but other places.
Constant asking about it is actually a violation of the forum.

Asking once like I did isn't against any forum rules, trolling everything thread you participate in like you do is: it doesn't take a hard look through your posts to see that. I'm surprised your mommy and daddy let you talk like this on the internet. You don't actually contribute any knowledge or development to this site, you just act like a moron to make yourself feel better about how fat and useless you are.

I live in Norway so it's obviously not available here yet. As the title says, are there any downsides? will i recieve updates as a uk citizen once i'm on 7.0? is it guaranteed that all my phones features will work as it should on 7.0? and lastly and most importantly, can there be a problem with mobile services?
Fairly random questions that no-one could possibly know the answer to half of them
1. Downsides to an unfinished beta? Yea, there are bugs, obviously.
2. What has being a UK citizen got to do with anything? Updates come to your phone depending on which region / ROM you have installed, not what citizenship you hold
3. How could anyone guarantee that everything will work, especially since it is not even final yet?
4. How could anyone know if there would be a problem with mobile services? We are not your provider, and it is not even released / completed / final yet
What's with the crazy questions lately?
This is what happens when you go through a dry spell.

I'd be right happy to, but being a newbie to XDA prevents me from doing so. I've posted the ROM multiple times in moto g7 telegram channel, if you want to check it out, go there. Until I get 10 replies, no luck for xda
Well, anyway, here's the latest message. And here're sources. When I get the chance, I'll do 4.0 with android 10 base, but for now, this is all I can offer.
I do apologize for my skepticism! I had no way of knowing about your Telegram until now. Thanks for sharing!
Now that I have enough replies, I've made a thread in ROMs, this marks this one as closed
