I'm on T-Mobile, but I would rather buy the International version of the S7 to eliminate bloatware and to have the Exynos processor, not to mention the unlocked S7 is cheaper. However, I would like to use VolTE and Wi-Fi calling too. Will I have these features if I buy the international unlocked version?

I've never had any of my unlocked phones support WiFi calling or VoLTE, only T-Mobile branded phones did.
you will probably have to flash the t-mobile roms from your country (I guess states?!). If you get a exynos S7 and some t-mobile usa branded roms for that VoLTE and WiFiCalling shouldn't be a problem. Getting those roms for the SM-G930F might be your biggest problem.

How readily will the roms be available? I remember doing it for my HTC One M7 a few times and it wasn't too bad.
I also thought some phones like the Nexus 6P supported VoLTE and Wi-Fi Calling on T-Mobile?
The intl version does not have band 12, wifi calling on TMO, or VoLTE support on TMO.
Don't do it.
Thanks.

oh yeah, and finally, heres the actual samsung product page
http://www.samsung.com/uk/consumer/mobile-devices/smartphones/galaxy-s/SM-G935FZDABTU
so, there it is...the g935 has band 12...unless samsung is wrong?
Man, those sites provide confusing answers because there's one g935f owner on this forum who has T-Mobile who said it doesn't support VoLTE and Wi-Fi calling.

That's because t mobile used to add their specific code to their phones' firmware. But now they're built into android so they may work.

When you state now they're built in, do you mean in Marshmallow?
I remember reading that's how the Nexus 6p gained the ability to use band 12 LTE support.
http://www.tmonews.com/2015/12/some...nd-12-lte-support-after-android-6-0-1-update/
Unbranded versions of the firmware do not support VOLTE for some inexplicable reason (the feature is there, just hidden), while some carriers do, they even use the same firmware with only a CSC change (like unbranded the XEF French unbranded firmware vs French Bouygues BOG firmware)
There is no T-mobile USA firmware for the Exynos/international variant but there are plenty of European carrier that handle VOLTE and have no branding, just flash the respective firmwares or CSC using ODIN (does not trip knox) which will enable the feature (you may need to perform a factory init to apply the CSC change)
I'm using the latest XEF firmware in my s6 intl 920F. Where do you get the csc to flash to enable these features?

That's right. Not sure about volte, but the wifi calling was added to marshmallow: http://www.phone-probe.com/android-m-features-native-wifi-calling/

That's for nexus devices, Samsung only enables WiFi calling on carrier branded ROM's.
If you buy the unlocked international version, you will not get VOLTE or WiFi calling. You will get band 12.

Isn't this the first Samsung phone that comes with marshmallow?
Before marshmallow, wifi calling had to be added by the carrier to their rom like t-mobile did on moto and samsung phones.
I don't know for sure, just speculating
Can anyone actually confirm who had the Intl version that volte doesn't work

I don't have the s7, but I did have the international note 5. When i received the marshmallow ota, a volte icon appeared in the quick toggles bar. When i tried to click it to turn volte on an error message popped saying that carrier is not supported. I tried both with a T-Mobile and at&t sim.
The s7 may be different, but I highly doubt it.

I have no idea how VOLTE works or what is needed. However would AT&T be supported? If anyone have any info on how it works, that would be pretty cool thanks.
If AT&T got volte, than it should work.

It does not work with ATT VoLTE. ATT VoLTE is exclusive to their carrier phones. Non Carrier models will not get VoLTE for a long time.
I can echo this. No unlocked phone I have ever used has supported AT&T VOLTE.
So it seems that most users are flashing G930U firmwares on their G930T (or G930A or G930V...) devices so that they can debloat, improve battery, etc. But I'm looking to do the reverse to pick up T-Mobile features. I would like to do so for a couple reasons:
1) I would like VoLTE to work and advanced messaging
2) I would like 4x4 MIMO and Carrier aggregation for T-Mobile bands
3) I would like T-Mobile WiFi calling
4) I would like to get faster (monthly-ish) updates from T-Mobile vs the slow updates from Samsung
Anyone have experience with this and get it to work? It seems like it should be possible with the snapdragon, I just can't find any threads about going this direction.

Wait, so just to clarify you don't have VoLTE or wifi calling on the 930U firmware?

WiFi calling is enabled in settings but never connects. WiFi calling is provisioned on the sim/phone line as I can get it to work with my Nexus 6p with that sim, but not the S7. And the VoLTE may be working but how do I check that?
When you're making a call does the icon go from LTE to H+ or does it stay on LTE? If it stays on LTE then you're making a VoLTE call, otherwise it's not.
Guide for jumping firmwares. You'd only be interested in the part about "returning to stock" for flashing the 930T firmware.

I know this an old thread but I just wanted to let everyone know that the ANDROID 8.0.0 G930U firmware (G930UUEU4CRG2) was just released over at Sammobile!
Physically I have the G930V phone... but I've been running the 930U firmware for over a year with no issues. I'd be curious how much I'm really missing (minus the bloat).
WiFi calling and txting seem to work fine.
Updates from tmo vs samsung seem to be about the same +/- a few weeks.
Does anyone know how the Note 10+ Unlocked model in the US handles Volte for the various carriers? Usually you have to have a carrier specific CSC with that carrier's Volte present on the phone or Volte does not work.
Do the US Note 10+ Unlocked models come with all the US carrier CSC present and Volte?

Pretty much comes with multiple CSC of US carriers. I am on T-Mobile and WiFi Calling and VoLTE work
I'm on Straight Talk (using a Verizon SIM) and the Voltaren fine. Note 10
Volte on Verizon works fine. Although I don't see an HD when on a call, the voice calls sound extremely clear which may mean that HD calling is working. You can do data and voice at the same time also. The only thing missing on Verizon is video calling
Hello
I have question... do any of you use it Samsung note 10+ SM-N9750 international unlocked with US carriers?
it's this model samsung unlocked for volte & wifi calling for any US operators? (like, t-mobile, at&t, google fi or for other? )
Thank you
SM-N9750 is a dual sim, unlock work on LTE but you will see 4G, it work in Canada and US however does not support VOLTE, wifi calling, samsung RCS does not work, if you want the RCS you need to download the Google message app, now there is a thread already where you can root the device and enable the VOLTE and wifi calling. hope this help.

From what I understand, you can call Tmobile and register your IMEI with them (unlocked device). After that VoLTE and Wifi calling will work, but not video calling.

are you sure i can call Tmobile and register your IMEI with them? and later will Volte and wifi calling work? Do you have confirmed information for this?
Which model note 10+ do I need to have? only with Snapdragon (of course I'm only interested in the dual sim version) will it also work on Exynos?
Thank you

I have BRI CSC (Taiwan). Wifi Calling button screeny attached.
Only issue is that carrier aggregation doesn't work.
As a added Note, VoLTE and Wifi Calling also works on my S8+ Exynos on XSA (Australia) CSC

Essentially, you will only be able to connect to 1 LTE band at a time, which means you will see slower speeds compared to a US Note10+. Basically, no problem with LTE data but could have slower data speed sometimes compared to US Note10+.

Thank you now I understand. But this is not a problem for me because currently I have the same because I have a note 9 dual sim with exynos. More important for me, it's wifi calling and volte.
Can you add a few screen from settings folder with settings wifi calling and Volte?
do use now dual sim ? One sim it's from t-mobile and have wifi calling and second sim card does not work on wifi calling?

Settings screenies attached. I am using both sims as you can see I have 2 dialing buttons.
AT&T doesn't open up VoLTE and VoWifi to non whitelisted phones, so it only shows on one sim. I just turn the setting off because it doesn't work anyways.

very good news I have t-mobile usa, so it should be ok.

Actually, T-Mobile is my "outside" sim card. I mainly use AT&T and switch to T-Mobile for reception/unlimited data.

Reviving an old post here...
Are you still using this device and still with AT&T and T-Mobile. Any long term issues or challenges?
I'm on the same carriers; T-Mobile personal (and primary) and AT&T (work). I'm most concerned about VoWiFi and VoLTE on T-Mobile. With AT&T, as long as it rings and I can get texts, I'm good.
Finally, I believe you said further up that you got it on ebay...any chance you recall the seller?
Thanks!

No usage issues at all. VoLTE and VoWifi works on T-Mobile. VoLTE works with AT&T. SMS and MMS works.
I got it from never-msrp.

I am not in a rural area or a dense metro area so those do not affect my receptions. Also I mainly use AT&T and switch to T-Mobile for data depending on reception.
Speed wise, it will be slower on benchmarks due to the lack of carrier aggregation (and b29, b30 missing for AT&T), but it doesn't affect my real world usage: chat/email, web browsing, music streaming, remote desktop.
