On my prior phone, there was a specific icon that appeared in the notification area and in the dialer when Wi-Fi Calling was active.
In the Pixel 3, I cannot find any indication of this status.
The only settings are Wi-Fi Calling on/off and Wi-Fi preferrred or Mobile preferred.
How can I confirm that Wi-Fi Calling is active before a join a one hour teleconference while roaming in another country?

On mine and my wife's P3/P3XL, when a call is in progress and WiFi is active the main call screen very clearly says WiFi Call. I am on T-Mobile. I had the OG Pixels on Verizon and T-Mobile at various points, but I honestly don't remember if it displayed anything differently while on Verizon.

I guess now that I look at the screenshot, one way would be to put the phone in airplane mode and turn on WiFi and make the call. If it goes through, you're on WiFi. If not, you aren't.

I'm on the Q beta 5 and on O2 UK network and with the status bar pulled down all the way at the top right it scrolls along saying O2 UK WiFi calling if I am connected to WiFi :good:
Edit, just noticed it says the same thing in the status bar on my lockscreen too
Dial *#*#4696#*#* then phone information, then click the three dots in the upper right, then IMS Service Status. It will tell you if it is available or not.
I found several ways to identify Wi-Fi Calling. From the lock screen (only) it will display "T-Mobile Wi-Fi Calling" in the notification area.
When unlocked, the status is not available from notifications (single swipe down).
However, a second swipe down from the notifications screen (that expands the quick settings), then "T-Mobile Wi-Fi Calling" is visible at the bottom in the same row as the Settings icon.
When making a call, it will indicate "Wi-Fi Call" from the dialer after the call is placed, and a short delay. When the call answers, the dialer continues to display "Calling...", then it changes to "Wi-Fi Call" after a few seconds.
There is no assistance in determining if Wi-Fi Calling is active from the dialer before placing a call. From the keypad, the green handset icon is unchanged whether or not Wi-Fi Calling is active. From Favorites or Contact there is no clue if Wi-Fi Calling is active. This is where the quick settings screen seems to be the only way.
When I posted this thread, I was in Europe. I had excellent Wi-Fi, but Wi-Fi calling never worked, so I was never able to see these status indicators.

Coming from CM 10, did a full wipe (data, system, etc) and installed BB 8. the switch in power widgets and also the one in quick tiles don't work. The icon changes, but the change isn't actually taking place, and when I click again it's stuck. This is quite troubling 'cause I use 3G outside and Wifi and 2G at home, so I switch a lot, and right now I have to go thru menus to do that Is anyone experiencing this\ know of a way to fix it?

i dont understand why you even have to switch (manualy).
mine switches automaticly, without ever setting it up.
when home or a place with a known wifi-network it will always use that (and gsm/2g for calls).
when no wifi is availible hspda is used. (or wifi is switched off).
i have no excessive drain from the always wifi on, still get about 4+hours screentime in a 24h batterycycle.

Well, you must be lucky, because mine doesn't :laugh: , just did a test to confirm it:
1) switch on 3g and data
2) switch on wi fi
3) dial *#*#4636#*#* and tap "phone info"
4) scroll down and voila, tge phone is still in "wcdma preferred", it didn't automagically switch to GSM

Yep you right it broken it show 2g but don't change. Also as far I know and see is that the network data is turned of when wifi is on so you are kinda wasting your time doing what you doing.
I just checkked. Switch doesnt work.
But device works correct.
my device i will switch to GSM only.
Its always on cdma prefferd, thats just a setting that wil not change on itself!!
If i look at my cellinfo.
If i look with wifi off. The GSM is active. And the GPRS service is active On UMTS network.
Wifi on. GSM is active but the GPRS is inactive, So no data.
So it works correctly here.
(btw GPRS is just the global name for dataconnection, type of connection is next line)
Wifi on:

Sure. Here is what I get by setting 2G network only, by going thru menus - and it's what I was able to set via powerwidgets on cyano:
Enabling and disabling wifi doesn't change anything about network, it only disables data.. but that's not what I need, sorry if I haven't been clear in my previous posts.
My point is enabling 2G network, not switching data on\off . The data switch works fine, but I want to stay on 2G when I'm not using wifi or when 3G signal is poor

Actually, it's the 4G call icon. You shoul disable it, if you want to be albe to make proper calls.
Wi-Fi calling icon
It's your Wi-Fi calling icon. Just pull the top bar down and turn off Wi-Fi calling! I only found out by accident as it was driving me nuts!
Not really sure where I should post this (maybe moderators can help me move it to the right place). Here is the deal. On my brothers P10, there is a 4G toggle button in the quick settings. Basically you can enable and disable 4G using that toggle. As far as my understanding goes, that toggle is just a shortcut to the explicit settings option which is found under Wireless and Networks > Mobile Network > 4G. Now to the issue at hand. My P30 (which is running EMUI 9, same as the P10 if I'm not mistaken) doesn't have this toggle in quick settings. But the actual 4G toggle is there in settings (under Wireless and Networks > Mobile Network > 4G). A quick search told me that weirdly enough Huawei has removed this little nice feature (I can't for the life of me guess why). Long story short... I want this toggle back because my connection usually drops to 3G and turning 4G off then on fixes it. Why not lock it to 4G using Settings Database Editor or something like that? Because my stupid ISP doesn't let people have phone calls over 4G. 4G is strictly for data only in my country; I don't know how it works in other countries. Basically if I lock it to 4G, I can't make or receive calls.
I know a bit of programming so I was playing around trying to add this quick settings toggle. I have added the toggle but now I don't know how I can tell it to basically do the same thing the 4G option under settings is doing.

Quick settings toggle called "Mobile Data", why not just toggle that to fix 4G?
There is an app you can create shortcuts with too

I have downloaded and tried all the apps you suggested. They don't have the feature I want. They have options to add some useful features to the quick toggle section but there was none to toggle 4G. I guess that's because it's a feature that's very specific of Huawei OS (EMUI).
I live in Ethiopia. As a 3rd world country we have very weak network infrastructures. The 4G service is limited to the capital (it doesn't even cover the whole capital). Calls aren't allowed over the 4G network. The network automatically drops to 3G when you receive or try to make a phone call. It's the ISPs way of relieving the huge data traffic on 3G.

I'm on a US Factory unlocked S22 Ultra running on a Xfinity Mobile Sim and a T-Mobile eSIM
Is it possible to enable WIFI calling on both numbers ?
Seems its only enabled for T-Mobile I only see WI-FI Calling scrolling after T-Mobile scrolls like this Xfinity Mobile | T-Mobile WI-FI Calling
For some reason only T-Mobile is showing up as WIFI calling enabled ?
is there any other way to check if WIFI calling is enabled other then how it scrolls across the top ?
Would depend on Xfinity and if they have wifi calling? Just throwing that out there.

Sorry I can't remember exactly what they did. But the way I think I remember it what they had me first disable turn off the T-Mobile eSIM then they had me reset network settings and then take the Xfinity Sim card out reboot reinsert the sim and go into settings and try and reenable wifi calling for the Xfinity mobile sim only. For it to work it will have to ask you to enter your location and some personal info for 911 emergency services it does this just once after that wifi calling will be enabled then I went back and reenabled turned on the T-Mobile eSIM back on and it came right back on now with Wifi calling enabled now on both services. Been working ever since with no issues
I have wifi calling on both. Probably depends on your carrier.
So it is either this T Mobile phone software or possibly lock from my employer on the setting as the phone is controlled by them. So I tried your recalled fix without luck. The WiFi calling setting never appears for the SIM1 Xfinity Mobile. I see it only for T Mobile eSim2. I imagine the WiFi calling setting should have enable for each sim and not just ON setting. But I found an app called "Wifi calling" on Google Play that enables the VoWiFi setting and that worked. Now I have Wifi calling on Both SIM1 and eSIM T Mobile.

I have wifi calling on two networks and the question here if I can have wifi calling enabled while on not on wifi but on data for the primary sim.
Can the wifi calling on the secondary sim "see" the data on the primary sim in order to register for wifi calling?
It seems new Iphone did it. You can register any wifi calling using the second sim data

Yeah it works on the S22 also guess it always did I just had to call the carrier to enable it
What do you mean to call the carrier and enable it? The wifi calling?
I don't mean the wifi calling in general.
Assuming you have wifi calling and works just fine. Let's say you travel and you don't have roaming on your US
carrier and you use a local sim card for Data.
For iphone the wfi calling for the US carrier i.e AT&T/Tmobile/Verizon always register using wifi but in this case in can use the data from the second sim card (local carrier) to register for the wifi calling

I have an ATT branded S21+ and have an issue I am trying to solve around always keeping my mobile data on. I connect to a couple of devices around the house, in the truck, and on the boat that are "wifi" devices. (For instance, on my boat, I have a WIFI transducer that sends sonar data to my phone for depth and temperature) Problem I am having is while I am connected to these sources, which do not have internet service, my phone refuses to use mobile data. I used to be able to toggle the "mobile data always active" function in dev options to correct, but it no longer seems to function. Anyone have a workaround?
S21+, A12, One 4.1, and just to see if it would correct the problem, I recently moved over to the U1 firmware. The problem still exists, but at least I don't have the ATT bloatware anymore.
go to settings > software information > tap Build number 7x or 10x idk...
Go back to Settings > scroll down and find Developer Options > search Mobile Data Always Active
That's what I was saying in the title of the post. The Dev Option is checked on, but it does not do anything and mobile data is not connected simultaneously. In past firmware (pre A12), when you toggle that on, the "5G" symbol shows up in between the Wifi and Signal Strength meter.
Nobody has run into this?
I have the same problem. Found settings under connections, mobile only apps, but it seems to do nothing.
There has to be a developer who can fix this. Willing to donate if so!

The weird thing is, I used that option to test this as well, and with the dev toggle mobile data always active OFF it does work for some reason....
My Chrome using whatismyip shows a Vodafone IP correctly..
I don't even have a "Mobile Data Only Apps" option to select. I know where it's supposed to be, it's just not there. On Samsung A12 U1 firmware.

Same issue here on my Note20 Ultra.
Did you find any workaround to have both connections active in the status bar?
Hi, I have the same issue with my Redmi Note 9 Pro with MIUI 12.5.7.
I have the "Mobile Data Always Active" option activated and it isn't working, when connected to Wifi the mobile data isn't connected...
Anyone knows a fix for this?
Or there is any app that can be a workaround?
Same here with s21 plus on Verizon, I used to have both 5G and wifi on, after the last update the 5g icon disappeared while im on wifi. The problem is everytime I leave a wifi area the phone takes forever to switch back to mobile network and I have to restart the phone.

Same here, I used to use this a lot using my phone with a wifi obd scanner, the scanner obviously doesn't connect to internet so having cell data with the wifi connection was great to be able to read codes for vehicles, it's been about a year or 2 since it quit working for me on anything android 11 and up
Same issue here on my Galaxy Tab A7. The intelligent Wi-Fi doesn’t even work. There is this app Speedify that works for free up to 2gb. It does channel bonding via a VPN but I would like for the basic features built into my OS to work also
