Does Bell Canada support VoLTE on the S8

I was wondering if anyone that is with Bell Canada can verify if they have support for VoLTE? I have tried in and around Toronto and it never stays on LTE instead always going into H+. I got in touch with support on two occasions and the one time I was told it should be supported and the other time I was told that they only support the S6 with regards to Samsung devices. They were not able to tell me when more devices such as the S8 or even the S7 will be added.

I live on a farm so I don't get LTE here. I'll be downtown tonight, I'll test it. Is the icon in the status bar supposed to change to let you know VoLTE is on?

I could be wrong, but my understanding is that it should continue to show LTE during the call and not switch over to H+. Not sure if it should actually show VoLTE anywhere on the screen during a call.
Here is a link that talks about the introduction of VoLTE which was back in February 2016: http://mobilesyrup.com/2016/02/03/bell-soft-launches-voice-over-lte-in-select-ontario-area-codes/

Apparently, if you go to the dialer / Preferences, there should be a ON/OFF toggle for VoLTE. I do have a LTE sim card but don't have the VoLTE option on my S8+. Website states it's only available for Samsung Galaxy S6, Sony Xperia X Performance, iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6s, 6s Plus, 7, 7 Plus & SE.

Works for me

Here's the switch

Edit: oops you beat me to it
I do have that option there as well.
I guess we're all good with the S8+

Just called Bell and was told that VoLTE feature is not on my account because I have a corporate plan. Supposedly it's only being offered for personal plans at the moment and I would need to switch plans to actually be able to get the feature.
MM13 - I assume you are not on a corporate plan?
The G Dept. - Have you had a chance to try it yourself?
Is there anyone here with a corporate plan that can validate what I was told?

Nope I'm not. I'm on a personal plan.

I was wondering if someone could also confirm something for me quickly. If you go to the App widgets screen do you see the one widget that I circled in red? IT appears to be the Bell TV widget but I am surprised that it's showing up the way that it is. I just wanted to confirm that this is normal.

Virgin here, no VoLTE. I do have the toggle though.

Here is the info I found on Bell's website:
To take advantage of Voice and Video over LTE on the Bell network, you will need:
One of the following compatible smartphones:
Samsung Galaxy S6
Sony Xperia X Performance
iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6s, 6s Plus, 7, 7 Plus and SE with iOS 10
(Note: iPhone devices only support Voice over LTE)
An eligible rate plan with data and an LTE SIM card
Voice and Video over LTE network coverage
And the info from Virgin Mobile's website:
You'll need a compatible phone:
Samsung Galaxy S6 Flat, S7 Flat, S7 Edge and A5
Sony Xperia
iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6S, 6S Plus, 7, 7 Plus and SE with iOS 10
Heads Up! iPhone devices only support Voice over LTE
You'll also need to live in the ever growing area with network coverage. If you're not in the area yet, don't worry, we'll get it to you soon.

I just got off the phone with Virgin Mobile customer service, I didn't have the VoLTE option activated on my account, they said they will add it and to restart my phone in 2 hours, I will test and report back if it's working or not.

Ok, so after my call with Virgin Mobile, I waited 2 hours, powered off my phone, then turned it back on, I made a call and VoLTE seems to be working, I noticed that my first call (I was home) my phone stayed on LTE, then when I was outside, I received a call while my phone was on LTE+, I also noticed that I had a little HD icon in the top left corner of the phone screen.

Thanks for the follow-up. It appears that I may be limited to H+ for now because I have a corporate plan. When I signed up for a 2-year contract it never occurred to me that VoLTE would not apply. It even took a few phone calls to Bell before they were able to tell me the actual reason I was not getting VoLTE on my S8+. With any luck, they will automatically expand VoLTE access in the future but it is something to be mindful of when signing up for a new contract.

I'm on Bell. The VoLTE option is enabled on my phone, but still drops to H+ when I make a call. I'm on a consumer plan so not sure what the issue is.

Does anyone on Bell, not Virgin, have VoLTE working on their S8/S8+? Not just the option on your phone, but when you make a call, your phone remains on LTE?

I would suggest calling Bell and see if they can add VoLTE on to your account. Last time I called them I was told that it was a feature that was not on my account. They did try to add it to my account but told me it wasn't coming up for some reason. Thier only explanation was that it wasn't available to corporate accounts for now. It's possible what they told me is not accurate. I would be very curious to know why you are not getting VoLTE since you are in the Toronto area.

OP6 work on ATT with VoLTE and HD Calling?

Does anyone who has this phone, use it on AT&T?
If so, does the VoLTE work? Meaning, when you make a call, does it do HD Calling? When on the call, does your cellular drop from LTE to HSPA?
I had to return my OP5T because it didn't support VoLTE, HD Calling, Wifi Calling, etc... Tried different SIM cards and IEMI's and nothing worked.
I mean, the phone worked, I could make calls and stuff, but it was like stepping back to 2012 where you couldn't do Voice and Data at the same time. The call quality was standard instead of high quality, and you couldn't keep your LTE signal while on a call, so if you were tethering at the time, it was like being on dial up.
Has this been addressed with the OP6, or is this still a limitation?
I have an Essential that I did not purchase through ATT, got it from Amazon Prime on sale for $399, and it supports VoLTE and HD Calling perfectly.

That would be awesome. With the 5T, I assumed that because the SIM card came right out of a phone that was provisioned for those things that it would just work, but it didn't. I tried calling customer service and had them try an IMEI from another phone that I owned, my backup phone that I know those services worked with, and it was no good.
Really hoping that the OP6 works with AT&T. Those two missing features are kinda important. If I can't tether my laptop from time to time and use it for work while on the phone... I can just do one or the other... be on the phone, or tether. then its a deal killer for me, which sucks because the OP phones really are amazing...
Oh well, maybe there is a PH-2 soon and that will give me some of the new specs and tech and still do all the things it needs to..
Def keep me posted. If the OP6 works for you I am ordering one the second I get confirmation. haha

I'll be honest with you, I'm not very optimistic. I have an unlocked S8 currently and I can't get VoLTE or HD calling. I also have an unlocked Moto X Pure and that has the same problem. I think it's AT&T that requires you have one of their phones to get those services. I'm hoping I'm wrong but my phone is due in tomorrow, I'll let you know.

To use VOLTE with ATT you normally have to be on their rom as VOLTE.
To experience HD Voice, both calling parties must:
Be within an AT&T HD Voice coverage area.
Both caller and receiver need to use an AT&T HD Voice-capable smartphone.
Have AT&T wireless service provisioned for AT&T HD Voice.
Insert the AT&T HD Voice SIM card that came with your device.

Makes sense but I have hd calling and VoLTE with my Essential which is not an att phone.

I'm gonna say it won't work on ATT, the only bring your own device that works with it on ATT is iPhones, but VoLTE and VoWiFi work on T-Mobile with the OP6

With Android 8.1, the Pixel 2 joined a short list of non-ATT-branded phones that work with ATT's VoLTE. I caved and bought the Note 8 in November coming from the Nexus 6P. Only for this to happen. I've been trying to see if the VoLTE is a software improvement in 8.1 or if this is strictly limited to the Pixel. I've not seen anything definitive yet.

Well, I had my Moto X Pure on Verizon and it had VoLTE but when I switched to AT&T that option disappeared. I called them and asked them why that was and after 7 different people from 7 different countries, I was finally told it has to be AT&T phone. I'm sure there is some work around somewhere but we'll have to figure that out. I kind of remember something in the MXP forums about a work around, I'll see if I can find it this weekend.

I got my OP6. Out of the box Volte does not work. I rooted with Magisk and with a Volte enabler module I have HD voice/Volte working.
The module also adds settings for wifi calling, but that needs more than build prop edits to work.

So a couple questions...
1) It says HD Calling, but more importantly, when you make a call, your cellular service stays on LTE, and doesn't drop to 3G or HSPA+?
2) How hard was it to root? Have not rooted in years, haven't felt the need, but maybe now that will change.
3) If you root, does that impact your ability to take OTA's and other OnePlus updates? I assume you rooted the stock ROM?

1.It stays on LTE while on calls
2. I followed the steps listed in this thread and all good. https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/oneplus-6-magisk-root-oos-5-1-5-t3794440
3. If you're rooted it will detect it and automatically download althea full update instead of an incremental update. Oneplus is very root friendly

Ah, so you just have to re-root each time? And you need root to enable VoLTE? It can't be done without root, at the diagnostic level, where you type in the code to the dialer to get into the hidden settings like some other phones do?

I tried the Dialer codes, but it wouldn't stick. There might be a way without root, I really didn't spend too much time trying it.

Yeah easy. The thread I linked has the steps. Basically need an unlocked bootloader and working Fastboot setup. I would recommend reading that thread, or you can wait until twrp is released and that would be a little more straightforward process. Plus you would be able to make a backup in case anything goes wrong.
Either way feel free to reach out if you have issues

Sorry but if volte works with a people module why wouldn't it work straight out of the box?
Its like enabling something the phone is capable of?
The module is just a build.prop tweak...

Were you able to enabled it temporarily with those codes (say until the phone reboots)?

I am so torn... OP6with 6gb and 128gb will set me back almost $600... for $719 I can get a Galaxy s9 and Best Buy is throwing in a 128gb microsd card and Samsung wireless charger. Plus it will support VoLTE Out of the box and has a much better camera...

Wifi-Calling on T-mobile in US

Hi guys,
If i buy the 1+7 pro from their website, which i think is unlocked version, will it support wifi calling on tmobile network in US?
I understand tmobile has their own version, but based on their website review, it has tons of junk software preloaded and don't know why they removed the original screen protector, also locked bootloader, so im not too interested in that version....
I work in an area where there's basically no signal, so wifi calling is a must for me...now using a sony xz premium international version, basically can not make phone calls with it.
Thanks!

Can you help explain this to me? I have the GSM Unlocked version.
Since yesterday I had the banner at the top showing VoLTE.
I wondered why it didn't show VoWifi while connected to my home network.
I literally did nothing except log into my T-Mobile account through my browser and the banner in my status bar switched to VoWifi, so I was like, oh cool!
But now, minutes later, the banner is gone altogether.
No VoLTE.
No VoWifi.
*Edit*
And now VoWifi is back

There's setting to enable these two in SIM card setting, a little hard to find...
That's the only thing I can think of, as mine as came enabled when received. Both work

I'm curious about LTE bands since you are on T-mobile in USA.
Can you confirm the phone support of bands 66 / 71 ? I've seen international specs that say the phone does and does not support these bands.
Edit 6/4/2019. I saw that you actually ordered a OnePlus 7 pro, and not a OnePlus 7... It does not appear that the OnePlus 7 supports bands 66 or 71, see https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7/help/one-plus-7-t3930123/page3

OnePlus 8 5G UW on Visible Wireless

I've been offered a pretty good deal on the Verizon version of the phone, but I don't have an IMEI to run through Visible's compatibility checker. Their website lists the 8 and 8 Pro versions as being compatible but doesn't specify any exceptions.
I'm hoping someone has tried the Verizon version of the 8 on Visible and can chime in and tell me it works fine! I will of course run the IMEI once I have the phone in my hands, but I like to know what I'm getting into ahead of time.
TIA!

You are awesome! Thank you for checking. I can buy the unlocked one, but I'd like to have the option for Verizon 5G if Visible offers it at some point or I switch back to Verizon.
You'd think that Verizon phones would have no problem working on Visible, but I have many and literally none of them work. My main driver is also a Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S and it works flawlessly on Verizon but will not even hint at connecting to Visible.

Yeah I've tried everything. Anything I could find that gave me a chance to get it working I tried, but no luck. My wife's iPhone is already on Visible so I've been using her SIM to test with.
It's ok though. I'm happy to upgrade to the new phone for a good deal, sign up for a cheaper plan and also gain the option for 5G.

Question VoLTE and 5G - Pixel 7 on none supported countries

hello
My country (Poland) does not support pixel phones
I am only concern about VoLTE , is there any solution to enable it and not root phone ?
I have remember , there was some code just from google dialer

No

I ordered it already , hmm we will see

You would be one of the first ones to try
The Pixel 6 method could work perhaps since they are both Shannons
Activate 5G on non-5G Country
Hey, this tuto is working for several user to activate 5G on unsupported 5G country by Google. You need : Rooted phone, 5G Plan, 5G Coverage. STEP 1 : Install the module on magisk to activate VOLTE and reboot. STEP 2 : Install Network Signal...
forum.xda-developers.com
Be sure to post results
Edit: this needs root

This guy has my avatar with my name on it

I am waiting for confirmation if 7 Pro will work in Slovakia and I will be purchasing immediately. 6 Pro does not support 5G/VoLTE/VoWiFi in my country without root.

There's no reason to believe Google will finally enable worldwide 5G on their phones. Google is not a real smartphone brand, Pixel line is probably a showcase. Therefore, they seem to lack interest on better developing it.

I am a longtime Google phone user (nexus5, pixel1, pixel3, pixel5). If I am able to use VoLTE in Hungary, I will order a pixel 7.
Please post it here whoever has experience regarding global VoLTE support!
Thx

In Romania, also unsuported country no Volte on any of our carriers. Pixel 7pro

I managed to root my device and get 5G, VOLTE and call screening enabled on Pixel 7 in an unsupported country (Bahrain).
Let me know if u guys need a guide I will prepare one

How?

With T-Mobile from Czechia is VoLTE working. 5G not and I don't even care LTE is everywhere and more than fast enough

For me, it seems to be working out of the box in Hungary... Yet to test but in the menu, it's available

Sorry to jump on this thread but I've got an unbranded and unlocked Pixel 7 Pro and I'm using a pay monthly Vodafone UK sim card. I'm unable to find the method of turning on WiFi calling which would presumably be included in the Network And Internet settings had I purchased the phone direct from Vodafone.
I'm rooted, Can someone let me know what would be the best way of getting this option activated? Is there a Magisk or Xposed/Lsposed module that may force it? Vodafone UK definitely support it, the same sim card had WiFi calling working on my unbranded Note 10 Plus.

I'm rooted, Can someone let me know what would be the best way of getting this option activated? Is there a Magisk or Xposed/Lsposed module that may force it? Vodafone UK definitely support it, the same sim card had WiFi calling working on my unbranded Note 10 Plus.

how do you know that VoLTE is disabled? Expect the VoLTE toggle will be hidden... Are you seeing the device fallback to 3G when trying to make a 4G call?

When I'm at home, my signal in some locations of my house is virtually non-existent. Previously, on my Note 10 Plus with the same sim card, WiFi Calling was a toggle in the network settings and, when on, I would have a clear notification icon on the status bar showing WiFi calling was in use when the phone was struggling to get a signal. I get no such notification on the Pixel nor is there a toggle when I've read elsewhere there should be.
voLTE isn't a concern, it's WiFi calling I want for when I'm at home.

I have just one simple question for Google...why do they ship the phone to non-supported countries from their official Amazon store?
Like...if you ship...make sure all features work?

You would be one of the first ones to try
The Pixel 6 method could work perhaps since they are both Shannons

Its not that Google doesn't support everything. Mobile carrier also need to implement device-specific attributes.

Google removed the WiFi calling icon a while ago in an android update or at least made it less visible. Would expect a toggle for wifi calling though in your call settings though. might be if it's not yet enabled, it'll come in a software update

People in non-supported countries still want a pixel device... VoLTE support isn't cheap or easy and Pixel is still growing
