What version of the 8 are you using, unlocked or Verizon, and what carrier are you using it on? I'm assuming you're using an unlocked model purchased from OP on Verizon. If that's the case, you can't get wifi calling at this time unless you do it through an app like Google Voice.

I have an original OP8 purchased from OnePlus in the UK. So, I am on Vodafone.

Thanks in advance

vowifi/WiFi calling on three UK on none branded phone

This might be to early to ask but has anyone been able to test this on three? I have no reception in my flat and can't get vowife to work on my 3t and because of the lockdown I need a working phone. I'm on a sim contract with three already.

I'm getting WiFi calling with 3 UK. I suppose that is what you're looking for.

Got it direct from OnePlus. Don't think it actually matter because all UK versions are unlocked

Thanks. For some reason the 3t doesn't allow that on three, which is annoying as the phone works fine bar reception at home which is an issue in lockdown

What I do at home is have an app (it's called Automate) which, when it detects me connecting to the home wifi, will divert incoming calls to my house phone. When the wifi connection goes (I've left the house), then it cancels the divert.
Maybe that will help you?

I'm in Massachusetts using an IN2015 on T-Mobile and just verified that VoLTE and VoWiFi are working fine for me.

Happy to help
A little heads up though to get anything other than WiFi working I did have to go into the SIM settings and turn on mobile data as well as enable VoLTE and VoWiFi, not sure if that was related to activating it on release day or because it's the global model on T-Mobile (didn't really look into it since it was just flipping 3 settings then everything just worked).

Wi-Fi Calling

New to this forum. Just got my Motorola One Hyper today. Am I able to make wi-fi calls on this phone? When I go to my Settings, Wi-Fi Calling is grayed out. If I long press it, Wi-Fi Calling comes up, but again, the screen is grayed out. It will not allow me to enable it. I am connected to my home wi-fi network, so that is not the problem. Thanks in advance.
It depends on your carrier, call customer service and ask if they use wifi calling. It works for me on T-Mobile on both stock and omni out of the box.
Beyond that, make sure you are updated to the latest stock firmware. The last update fixed volte and vowifi.

Thanks for the response. After the phone went through all of its updating, the wi-fi issue solved itself. But I have another question. This phone was labeled as "International version" when I purchased it. I discovered that it's actually (RETLA), thus the instructions only came in Spanish. Will this be an issue using it in the USA?
Thanks
What's the model number?
Mine is xt2027-1
If it's xt2027-3, you might be missing some lte bands...

Mine is also xt2027-1. Just out of curiosity, what are lte bands, and why are they important?

Go to the link below, it compares the bands different models of our phone operate on. If more bands are compatible with your network, your network reception will improve.

Hello there. I've recently purchased the US version since I live in USA but I noticed wifi calling doesn't work on mine and I couldn't find a way to enable it. I have not called T-Mobile yet but I will eventually. I'll give an update later.
Have you had any luck with it?

i havent gotten it yet, since i use wifi calling a lot at home due to not the greatest signal. if it doesnt support, then i might have to pass, which is a shame since its such a nice phone otherwise.
