volte and 4g icons in status bar - Huawei Mate 30 Pro Questions & Answers

Hello guys,
Now from what i know about this phone it is dual 4G and i have it enabled in developer options.
I also have volte service activated from operators on both sims, but only one sim displays the volte option and 4G icon in status bar. I have tried switching the sims and then volte/4G icon appears only for sim 2.
According to Network cell info software i have 4G/4G+ on both sims and Data Network is lte for both, so in theory both sims have volte and 4G enabled, but it displays only for one operator.
My question here is if anyone has volte/4G icons for both sims in status bar and if you can share a snip as proof.
Thanks.

Only works in Sim 2 for me, see attached screenshot.

At least you have 4G for both. Mine only shows 4G on the active data sim only.
Would appreciate if anyone posts a snip with both 4G/volte for both sims. i have a ticket opened at Huawei and want to give them an example that on how it should display.

I will show you tomorrow with 2 simms from Orange and Digi Romania.
Take in consideration that here Vodafone has VoLTE without showing a VoLTE icon on any phone. On Vodafone I can not switch off the VoLTE because is no slider/option on network menu. They activate VoLTE from their server so if I want to deactivate it I have to call them. You can verify if you are in the same situation as follow:
- keep data mobile on this sim (no WiFi).
- Network 4G
- initiate a phone call
If remains in 4G means you have VoLte activated but no icon (carrier option). If commute in 3G means you don't have VoLte activated
I will change the Vodafone Sim with Digi one to see 2 icons.

Hi,
Ok, I can understand the volte icon is carrier dependent on Vodafone, but what about the 4G icon? For me it only shows 4G icon on the sim where I have data active only. Check attached pics.
And yes, I know about the test you mentioned and yes, it stays as 4G during a call. I know I have the option active(since for vowifi I get icons on both Orange and Vodafone) and I checked with Network Cell Info program and it says Voice Network is lte on both sims.

You have to use Tweaker for Huawei.

Apply and restart.
LE You can ask also here: https://forum.softpedia.com/topic/1148606-huawei-mate-30mate-30-pro/

Thx for the tweak tip.
@Sathelp : did you use the tweaker to get the 4G icons on both sims? Or maybe you see both because the phone is 5G model..

No, I hacked to get the VoLTE working (search for my thread) but the 4g is standard, sim one is Sky (O2) and sim 2 is EE (UK) . I have reasonable signal levels.

And with that app what that you get?
Can I make VoLTE calls or enable the VoLTE icon in the Mate 30 Pro's internal menu?

Follow the discution from the beginning. In this case, you can enable the network icon on the second Sim.

To be honest it asks me for root also to enable 4G icon on second sim. No idea why it works for you.

It asks because some functions need that. Not this one. It is better to try it. It is easy to do it.

I found the setting to display the 4G icon on both sims with SetEdit:
isShowNetworkType to be changed to 1

Sure. The same thing, different app. No root needed?

activate VoLte on unrooted device

Is there any possibility I can get the volte setting to show up on an unrooted European dual SIM model?
Via adb for example?
Call settings, scroll down to the bottom and allow Internet calling for all calls. Keep your data active and when you make a call on 4g it will switch if the network is capable. Be aware that it can munch through your data plan!.
Beamed in by telepathy
That is exactly the problem.. there isn't such an option.. this only is there with the Single Sim Variant. Dual Sim Variant doesn't show it..
Sorry for bump this old thread but I have the same model and issue.
I have a HTC u11 European dual simm, I don't have this option in my menu, my carrier (Vodafone ES) have a VoLTE but I can't work with VoLTE.
I don't have root the phone.
If in cal, I type *#*#4636#*#* appears the option VoLTE but I can't change this option for enable.
Its possible enabled VoLTE in unrooted phone and in the dual simm version?
Thanks and regards.

There should be VoLTE option for your sim..
If no, There is many chances that your SIM maybe not 4G ready or your circle don't have VoLTE feature..

Needs root but the only way I got it to work here is with the magisk module.
Ya, don't go playing with the band selection, or you may just get dropped to 2g connection with no LTE possible.
After digging around, I found a fix to get LTE back.
Download the "Network Signal Guru" app from the Play Store.
I told it to "Clear Forcings" in the menu, and LTE is back up.
Cantn find The Module can You give some more Informationen?
This won't work in Europe at least, no matter how Volte ready is your network/SIM card. OnePlus just ignores the issue.
This method https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...-volte-vowifi-german-carriers-t3817542/page28 works for activating VoLTE if your operator had enabled it for you.
I tried the method in the current post, but only got the toggles in the menu and not the real thing.
Had to call the mobile operator (Telenor BG, Bulgaria) to ask them to activate VoLTE and then did the method in the linked post.
I have a non-rooted OP6 and I'm now effectively using VoLTE on my network. Hope that helps.
Hmmm, does anybody know which was the previous default setting? I would like to revert it back and don't remember what setting was set before...

It doesn't work with Kuwait Viva !
If you want to get VoLTE and VoWiFi menu under SIM options in your OP6 just type *#800# in default dialer (not working in ther dialers) and under oneplus logkit>Function switch there is VoLTE and VoWiFi switch This is only to have that switch visible in menu so it isnt a guarantee that VoLTE will work on your device because your network carrier must support it and if it is not supported by carrier then VoLTE will not work no matter if you enable it with menu switch

Thanks, I used your guide and was able to enable VoLTE for my Vodafone.de LTE contract, my second card is from Sparhandy which is also I believe Vodafone but without LTE/4G, unfortunately VoWIFI is not showing up, I confirmed with Vodafone/LTE contract that it is enabled and it is, any suggestions?
TIA
somebody knows how to set up VoLTE on OOS9 ?
"Enhanced networking" missing for me
No one in Pie tried to set up VoLTE
VoLTE and VoWiFi just work, what setting up needs done?

Go to "Phone", Settings, SIM & Network Settings, then in to the SIM you want, and the VoLTE and WiFi calling is in there. It's NOT in the traditional Settings app.

jamal2367's method (see here in English: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/how-to/guide-volte-vowifi-german-carriers-t3817542) works fine with OOS9/Pie.
Just updated & patched modem config with PDC as described in the link (I'm using the config "Telefonica_UK_Commercial" for O2 in Germany) and I'm up again with VoLTE/VoWifi working..
Still a shame that Oneplus is incapable to do enable the right config by default..
but it is just that in OOS9 you miss those switches what were in OOS5.11 in "Enhanced networking, this group is all missing in Pie

Network Type/VoLTE Problem

Not sure if I'm being stupid here....and did search but couldn't find anything quite like the issue I've got.....
I live in an area with pretty flaky LTE coverage and because of that, I struggle with VoLTE....basically it's rubbish and can't hold a call very effectively.
On my old 6T I could switch off 4G in the preferred network setting menu thereby forcing the phone to 3G and a circuit switched call.....no problem. With my OP7 Pro, I only have the option in that menu of "4G/3G/2G (Automatic)".
Is that right? Or should I be able to select "3G/2G (Automatic)" like I could on my 6T?
Or is there a way of turning off VoLTE that I haven't found yet?
TIA!

So now you have two issues. You can't change to 2G/3G and you have no VoLTE toggle. You may need to reflash latest Full OTA zip. You should have those options. Are you on T-Mobile?
Through phone app, general settings/sim&network the network type is there. Then sim settings (sim 1) toggle is there

The only option in that menu, under 'Enhanced Calling' is WiFi calling.

Well, this is weird.....have reset to factory, flashed the 9.5.7 full ROM and still have the same issue.....
I suspect their is a SIM card provisioning flag that the phone is respecting......i.e. EE have said they want the phone to prefer 4G always and therefore can't deactivate the ability to use only 3G/2G.

Go to dialer, then *#*#4636#*#*

I am also on EE, EE is the only network in the UK that had volte on by default. I have spoken to them about this same thing and the reason the toggle to switch off volte is missing is because EE can't switch off volte on their end without disabling 4g too. So it's normal if using EE, if you use a sim from Vodafone for instance the volte toggle should reappear in the settings.

no volte option

I got the phone today, but I there is no volte option in setting. I had volte options in my oneplus 5t. Is there secret codes to force unable the option? I am on three UK sim.
Other way round for me.
On BT Mobile (and EE) UK I could never get 4G calling on my old XZ2. Xperia5 II plugged in sim and it was a notifications bar quick button and available in settings straight away.
Comes under:
Settings -> Network & Internet -> Mobile > Advanced > Calling
I have made few calls and it seem they were made over 4G because status bar icon didn't change from 4G to 3G so I guess I do have VOLTE enabled but I don't have option in setting.
Further more I checked the info section and the volte provision option is enabled and grayed out. I don't understand why I don't have option for volte but it works for don't care much about it now.
Edit = WiFi calling option is available in setting and it works too.
I have 4G Calling option available for my O2 sim and VoLTE for my Telekom sim. WiFi calling option is also there.
I only get VOLTE option on my UK 3 sim. On my Spanish O2 SIM it's not available (though I know for sure the service is enabled but only for certain devices)

Weird, I am using UK 3 SIM as well and I don't get option for volte but I am able to make calls over 4G. Don't know why is option hidden.
It is activated by standard if technically possible. There is no reason to deactivate it, so no switch is needed.
VoLTE/ Wifi calling are enabled by the operator. Maybe your operator has not certified Xperia 5 ii yet.
Check with your operator
4G Calling is actually VoLTE, so you have it and you are using it already as you stated above. No worries! ?

Hi. I asked in another thread about WiFi calling working for the Xperia 5 II on BT Mobile. If 4G calling works then hopefully WiFi calling too?.
Can you confirm? Thx.

I should have clarified my previous post. The selectable option (quick button and menu) is to turn Wifi Calling on/off. VOLTE/4G calling is just fixed as provisioned. You can see this in the service menu (*#*#4636#*#*)
The service providers are clueless when you ask if they do or don't support Wifi/VOLTE calling.
So yes both available and working on BT Mobile.

How to enable VoLTE for LG V50 (Korean U+)

How to enable VoLTE on the korean U+? I've checked with my carrier and they confirmed that VoLTE service is active on my SIM. However I can't find any option to enable VoLTE in phone settings. I've only seen a VoLTE call quality option in phone settings - not sure if this means that it's already active. The status bag logo also shows just LTE when mobile data is enabled - no indication of VoLTE.
If you have mobile data showing LTE and it does not change to 3G (or something else) when you make or receive a call, then you are on VoLTE. That is my general understanding of it.

Ah ok. It seems you are not on VoLTE then. Sorry, I don't know how to activate it though.
i have the sprint version but am currently on tmobile network which (was switching me to 3g) during voice call or txt msg.
now that tmobile has been taking down 3g (and they are working on a tower in my area) i do not even see 3g symbol in notifications anymore. i can complete the call and there is no lte symbol or 3g symbol but call completes but can not use data still.
when i hang up i see lte and can use data (browse the web)
the funny thing is before i went to tmobile i had metro pcs in this area which uses tmobile network and i never had a volte problem so you know this is software and they just want us to buy more phones.
this exact phone worked on metropcs with volte no problem.
