Volte how-to ? - Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers

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

weird network lock?

Hello
I just recently got the optimus 3d. its brilliant!
With the help of this forum I've managed to root and get Clockwork then install thais rom.
amazing speed increase.
But i have just one issue.
My phone was locked to orange uk provider. when i bought the phone I had to call orange to have my phone 'activated'
only after i did that did the phone even receive a signal.
before that it just said emergency call only, or no signal.
now, i've unlocked the phone using a code. it now says no personalization when i check the lock menu.
but: when i insert another sim, vodaphone uk or 3 uk, it says emergency call only or no network.
whats going on?
please help...
thanks
after a search it seems other people also have this issue with no reply.
did anyone else have this problem and fix it?

The activation bit is for the sim card, I have a phone locked to O2 and what happens is you register the sim with them and then they enable it to use their network which is why until then it will say no network.
It is also the reason why if you put any other sim in the phone, and that sim has not yet been used to make calls, you get the same error.
As for the personalisation message on the unlock menu, I am unsure what you mean by the lock menu. I assume you mean the screen you see before you unlock your phone to use it each time, and did a search on google which produced no results but I would guess that if you are using a custom rom the message means you either have not personalised your screen or that the option is there to personalise it but has not been used.

unlock menu - where you enter the network unlock code.
i'm trying to use my 3 uk sim, its been on contract for over 2 years.
I know that a lot of unlocked phones wont work with 3, if you google 3 unlock you will find a lot of people have problems and some unlock companies even specify they wont unlock to 3 network but if it does the same with non 3 cards or only works with one operator perhaps the unlock was only partial?
I did a search for pedsonalisation and all I found were various unlock sites saying that a sucessful unlock needs you to have a personalisation menu.
My previous android phone had a device lock and a sim lock, could it be your unlock has only partially worked? Is it only one provider whose network you can access?

you're being really helpful so i give thanks.
i have tried o2 and vodafone sims in the phone also but to no avail... always says emergency only or no network, with both showing no signal.
would flashing the original orange rom back then retrying the lock code help? as of right now when i go to the unlock menu and click network lock it prompts a message stating my phone has no personalization.
sorry missed out a little bit of info.
the only network that works is orange, it gets full signal and works perfect, but i'd really like to use my contract sim instead of pay as you go extra on orange.
I've done some more searching and found that on a lot of phones that personalisation message means the phone unlock has failed and that after a successful unlock it should say something like "network lock has been personalised".
You do only get a certain number of tries so don't enter the code over and over, if you are sure you entered it correctly it means the code you got just didn't work (I had that when unlocking my previous LG and had to buy a code from somewhere else as the first one didn't work at all).
I am not recommending this site, it's just one that explained how to unlock so am posting a link in case it helps, but the site says you need to enter two codes on an Optimus 3D. One is for network lock and one for service provider lock, I know that some people on the xda forums have unlocked their phones so I hope they will jump in and help solve your problem as really all I can do is google for the bits I am unsure of but it would seem your code did not work, or that you need two codes and only had one.

just wondering if i could post a video link here to show how it happens, if not, mods can you delete this link:
http://videobam.com/YqMQH
might need to tilt head/computer screen
that was with orange sim, without orange sim it shows no signal and no network... its running thais rom.
heres a video of it using another sim.
when i start the phone with other sim, it prompts whether i'd like to use mobile data or not, but no connection!

Well having watched your videos I can clear up something, I think.
I had searched for terms based around "no personalisation available" which means your code did not work but searching for the actual message in the video "your phone is not personalised" produced completely different results.
That specific message means the option you are clicking on is not locked (not personalised by your provider) at least according to various pages I have found including a few on other well known Android forums so if that's correct your unlock did actually work and that is why the message appears.
The page at http://www.cpkb.org/wiki/LG_enter_NCK_code also mentions this code and its cause.
If the other sims you try offer you data or mobile but do not connect, yet you can make calls, then you need to set up your apn for that provider. The apn tells your phone how to connect to your provider.
This is really easy to do but you will need a free app called Apn global from the android market at https://market.android.com/details?id=osatek.apn.global obviously you need it on your device which can be done in various ways, possibly easiest if you can connect via wifi and go to the market.
Install and run it, pick the name of your provider (the provider whose sim you wish to use) and it will create the mms and internet settings for you. Then mobile data should work.
Alternatively if you have an android phone which you already use that sim on, install to that phone and choose the apps backup option which will backup your exact settings to sd card so you can import them to another android phone.
If you have other providers apns on there you will probably need to tell the phone to use your new settings. Simply go to your phones settings menu, find the wireless settings option and click it then scroll down the screen to "mobile networks" and click that. Then click "Access point names" and choose the desired provider. I have three on my phone and you can always revert to any other settings if you change provider later.
The apn app is very useful, I have used it on a few phones, it has a large list of providers worldwide so you should find your choice of provider there and hopefully that will solve your problem.
Dave
Thanks for the reply dave, but I have yet more bad news sadly.
I can't actually make calls, as shown in the second video it shows no network/emergency calls only.
It's hard to believe no-one else has this issue.
I have owned lots of android in the past(started with g1, then hero, then jumped to zte blade then galaxy 1, now this) none of them posed any difficulty removing network lock.
Its such a strange problem that a search of this forum shows at least one other person had this issue but no-one could help.
Sorry if this sounds stupid but have you gone into the settings menu on your phone (Settings/Wireless and Networks/Mobile Networks/) and chosen the "select your network provider" option?
There you can force your phone to use a specific network provider.

I have with error "Unable to connect to this network at this time. Please try again later."
I don't think I can help, though I did some more googling and on the cyanogen mod forums someone posted a similar problem....
I've been using the nightly builds of CM7 since they came out and have had no network problems. I then installed version 7.0 [stable] when it came out, and just yesterday I installed version 7.0.3 [stable].
I have had no signal since, and whenever I try and select my network from the Settings > Wireless & Networks > Mobile Networks > Network Operators, it comes up saying "Unable to connect to this network at this time. Please try again later.".
It is nothing to do with my network provider, as my brother's phone works fine and he is on the same network as me.
I am on Three Mobile.
Please help!
RESOLVED: I just wiped all userdata and reflashed CM 7.0.3, I'm a very impatient person

If you fail to get a solution this option may help but probably best as a last resort. One thing I did notice when watching your second video is that you have the wireless on, this will stop your phone connecting to any providers mobile data so at least as far as mobile data goes you won't be able to use it when connected to wifi and would have to switch wifi off in order to test the mobile data connection.
Also I know that on my O3D my wireless sometimes seems to cause my phone signal to switch off with the little x. I doubt that is the cause of your problem but may be worth trying to connect with no wifi.

I'm going to try reinstall the original orange rom that came with it and downgrade baseband, if that fails to work after a full reinstall using lgflashtool I'll have to try get another phone.
thanks for all your help dave, i really appreciate it!
A popular unlock site says the only steps needed to unlock to any network are...
1. Input a non accepted simcard
2. Phone will display enter “Sim network unlock PIN” or “Enter Network Unlock Code”
3. Input the 8 or 16 digit unlock code that was emailed to you
4. Phone is unlocked!
If you did this, which you obviously have, your phone is unlocked and the problem must be something else but if you're going to flash a copy of the orange rom you might want to check first with one of the more knowledgeable users here that the rom won't replace some of the locks you already removed.
I checked around and from what I have found it should be as easy as put the new providers apn on your phone, select their settings from mobile networks menu for provider and also mobile data and that should work.
One orange customer who unlocked a different model android phone found that all they had to do was flash the radio only (not the rom), not sure how you do that but there are probably guides on xda.
Dave
I flashed the original orange rom and after flashing the froyo basrband it suddenly worked. Flashed gb again and it still worked, seems i just hsd to reflash basebsnd/radio like you said.
Thank you so much

Hi pauliebb,
I have the same problem that you had. I bought a used unlock O3D vodafone ES to gift to my brother, he lives in south america and he told me that the mobile does not recognize his SIM. What did you exactly do you did to reflash the baseband firmware???
I supposed thet the mobile is unlock because it shows the same message when enter to the unlock options "phone is not personalised"
Regards
the same problem
i have the same problem, i have phone from plus gsm poland, phone is not personalizet but read only sim card from plus, diffrent card not read and show info no sim card, help me how resolve this problem?

SM-G920W8 | No Option To Connect to LTE

I bought an Unlocked Canadian S6 recently, and it just won't let me connect to the LTE network.
Model Numer : SM-G920W8
Android Version : 5.0.2
Baseband : G920W8VLU1AOCG
Connecting to the LTE is not even an option. When I go in the Network Options, I get the choice between :
-WDCMA/GSM (auto connect)
- WDCMA only
- GSM only
I know for a fact that I am in the coverage zone, so no need to ask that silly question
I've tried different SIM cards, played in the options a bit, and factory reset the phone about 5 times now, yet nothing seems to work.
Also, when I try to do the update, it just reboots and gives me an Android logo and a failed Icon
I've only seen one other post like this from a carrier's support website, but no solutions were found.
**Update : For a reason, after a recovery, it will connect to the LTE for a bit or until next boot, then go back to what it is now.
First question, who did you buy the phone from? Second, Is it second hand? By default, Wind mobile does not allow the LTE option to be displayed in system settings as they as a carrier don't have LTE. It is blocked by the CSC setting for the carrier. As for other carriers It should leave you the option to connect in settings where you say it is not. If it is a Wind phone, You would need to change the CSC to enable the LTE selection. There is a method to force LTE even without option in settings, but I think it is removed in the latest firmware. Try dialing *#2263# in the dialer. It may bring you to menu that will allow you to select LTE. This is not a permanent method though as it will need to be done every boot. The other way, (If you are in fact a Wind/Mobilicity phone) is to enter dialer and enter *#272*IMEI# with IMEI being your devices unique code. If at all possible, take a full nand and Titanium Backup before doing this and be sure to transfer everything off the phone to a PC. This method wipes everything and I mean everything off the phone buy is a surefire way to enable LTE.
Yes, it was second hand. I didn't ask who was his carrier simply because it was unlocked.
I'll try it tomorrow, thanks for the information
Here is the menu you will see when you type the *#272*imei# code into your dialer. The codes are the carrier names. Mine which is GLW is Wind, BMC is Bell, RWC is Rogers, etc.
Maybe there is no LTE in your area...

It would still be visible in the Settings/Mobile Networks/Network Mode menu which it is not. His problem is more than that.

Sweet! It works :good: Thanks man
Now, would you have any ideas on why the update won't work? I didn't get much into it yet, but I will soon.
I'm not sure why it wouldn't update, but now that you have changed the CSC you can download the update and flash with Odin. Pick your carrier and go to town. The guy running the following thread runs his own firmware host. He's got amazing DL speeds. Usually takes me 6 or so minutes to do the 1.6gb file. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3086387
I'm having the same issue.

Connected with someone selling a G920W8 version. LTE is disabled and the codes aren't working. Can you reaffirm which unlock code worked for you? I'm on Fido, what LTE network are you using?
hi BCSC
Thanks for the details. I searched complete net and read all articles but nothing set me up with the proper thing. i read your solution i dialled *#2263# and all i got is service mode and in that i went to band selection , LTE and the all ....... Yes and its showing LTE in mobile data. THanks so much.
But now another issue, network is showing perfect but no outgoing and incoming calls.
in incoming its showing busy and on outgoing its not connecting to another phone.
And, Lte is not showing in mobile networks, There only 3 options still are showing.
Mine is same Wind S6 but i had to use in India.
Let Me know
Thanks once again
Cheeerzzzzz
Varun
Picking LTE from the service mode will note make it visible from the settings menu. Its more of a workarpund instead of a way of permanently enabling it. As for the issue of no out/in calls, my best guess is that it could be due to which LTE bands are being used or are available in India. Unfortunatly I have no way to test that option. I only was successful in getting the Wind LTE option on Canadian carriers.

VOLTE Three UK

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

Yes, you may see that unless you have the feature turned on in your VZW account. I was going to try to reply to this yesterday to tell you to dial *#*#VOLTE#*#* to turn off the auto-carrier check which does not work with VZW (they probably do something stupid to make it not work). Then you can toggle on in the mobile options in settings, which works.

This is not working for me. I have the phone active on VZW and I can disable the carrier check using the above dialer code and toggle VoLTE on, but when I try to make any call I get "SERVER ERROR. TRY AGAIN LATER." in the dialer. Confirmed with 2 separate VZW reps that "HD Voice" is enabled on the line. If I toggle VoLTE off, then I can make (presumably regular quality) calls again.
What am I missing?

TRY AGAIN LATER." in the dialer. Confirmed with 2 separate VZW reps that "HD Voice" is enabled on the line. If I toggle VoLTE off, then I can make (presumably regular quality) calls again.
What am I missing?

If you dialed *#*#VOLTE#*#* and then toggled it on manually in your settings, you should be good to go. I have had two different Mix 3 devices and 3 different Mix 2s devices. This worked on ALL of them. The SIM I am using is ancient, it's from my LG G3, hand cut yolo style with a pair of scissors, so I don't think it's the SIM card causing your issue. It may be worth logging in to the VZW website and trying toggling off HD Voice and then toggling it back on.

Anyone have WiFi Calling working ?

I'm in the UK and on Three network and have no option for WiFi calling (which i really need as my signal is bad at home). Anyone else have WiFi calling option appear (if so where?). The Mi 10 Pro had it enabled so disappointing this doesn't.
To disable the VoWIFI carrier check, all you have to do is enter *#*#869434#*#* in de phone dialer. The option to place calls over WIFI will then appear in the phone menu. However, some carriers check the type of phone you use or require specific settings in the ROM for it to work. I enabled VoWIFI this way on my device, but it's not working with Vodafone in the Netherlands (at least, not yet).

It's in the original post... UK and Three
Works ok on EE using EU ROM, see screenshot
Works ok on Vodafone UK too.
I'm using a Giffgaff and an EE SIM to see which gives better data and the option isn't enabled for Giffgaff (they don't offer it)
So at least in the EU ROM it is up to the carrier with no extra steps the user's end.
I installed EU rom on my Mi 10 ultra and now I no longer have VoWiFi in the settings, and VoLTE is greyed out and can't be clicked! I tried *#*#869434#*#* and got a message that saying VoWIFI is enabled, but it's not working.
Everything was working fine in China rom!!
Update: fixed!

What fixed it?
VoLTE *#*#86583#*#*
VoWIFI *#*#869434#*#*
After dialing these codes make sure the notification says "carrier check disabled" NOT ENABLED.
The trick is you need to restart your phone after enabling them.

I'm UK on EE too... received phone today. Going to start the unlock tonight. Looking online, I note that both the "stable" EU and "weekly" EU appear to have snags - would have thought that the 'stable' would be pretty snag free. Do you recommend the EU ROM, or should I just go ahead with staying on Chinese for a while? I've flashed stuff before on older phones but want to try and keep this one as daily driver where poss, so most 'normal' stuff needs to work pretty much (android auto/vowifi+volte/voice recording/banking/fingerprint).
Would appreciate your input.
If Google pay is important, I mean really important, then stay on stock for now as gpay has an issue, or I should say both stable and weekly seem to have developed a CTS security problem that stops gpay and stops fingerprint banking, normal logins work still though. It should be all good and pass all safetynet tests, so hopefully fixed in next version after Chinese holidays, so around 15 or 16th October as all EU ROMs are based on official ones.
VoLTE and VoWiFI works fine with EU ROM but I am not so sure with the Chinese stock, so one to test.
Call recorder works on all versions really well but you ask about auto, not had any use of it but location history or tracking does not work on their Google framework version but these are fine on the full Google framework set of apps on the EU ROM.
Yes, stable is the most recent so called fully working version with weekly built in top since last stable. Do not switch between each, choose one branch or the other or you may need to wipe your data swapping between the two.
Unlocking does not affect anything but you do need to fully verify your mi account before you start or you will get nowhere. Once done you can start the unlock. The tool will take you to a point where you need to add your mi account and password to the phone to bond the 2 together, then it will start your countdown, 168 hours, one week. Come back after and use the unlock tool again and this time it will unlock, wipe and reboot, so make sure you have a back up or somewhere to get your data back on like your old phone and a copy of mi move. Then you can flash away or stay stock Chinese.
I have attached a copy of my guide to unlock, twrp and ROM flashing, I know you have done some before but it may help you or someone else reading. Oh and one final thing, read as much as you can here and in the Xiaomi.EU forums mi 10 ultra and ROM threads.

Sorry to dredge up an old post (I'm EE UK on weekly EU rom).
Can you get SMS to send when on VoWifi, as I'm still getting message send failed (using Pulse SMS)? Calling works, of a sort - quality is poor. Also noticed that sometimes I don't get the VoWifi indicator when out of service area
It sends while on VoWiFI SIM 2 on EE using Mi Message, the stock message app. See screenshot
Hi, I'm having issues with VoWIFI. It never worked on EU Weekly. I see, and enabled the VoWIFI option in the settings, but never works.
VoLTE used to work, but stopped after the last week update (10.12.2020). Since the last weekly update, VoWIFI option disappeared, and VoLTE is greyed out.
I put my SIM in an iPhone and everything was working fine!
I use EU weekly and don't have any issues. My Sky SIM does not but my EE SIM 8n SIM too works a treat. Screenshot attached shows VoWiFI call.
Sometimes the icon dissappears, so I just switch off Wi-fi and back on, service back.
