Has anyone got this working, the icon is enabled but it's not showing up.
Volte only works iff you buy a volte compatible phone from 3 shop. It has to be one of there phones or its blocked. Unlike on O2 iff the phone is volte compatible it even works with some of there pay as you go phones. For this reason i am going to leave 3 after my contract finishes.

My last phone was a phone not sold in the UK but that worked?
Which phone was it and where did you buy it I know for a fact that any phone which has volte but not bought through 3 store will have the volte IMS service blocked because you need there version of Android firmware for it to work. I have had many arguments with 3 customer support over this.
the Volte and Wifi Settings are blocked by OP in their official firmware because they need the carrier to allow the settings on their phones. Some Asian imported phone manufacturers sometimes disobey them and allow it but this is not the norm.
Have you noticed that when you put in a sim from a major operator in the uk the internet/mms etc settings are usually auto configured?
three for example, configure their sims to block any 'non authorised' phone to auto download the required settings to enable wifi calling and volte.
This means that the only way of bypassing it (a bit like Sammy csc changing) is if there is a custom ROM available with the three settings pre loaded. EE are the only network that are essentially a 'slut' and allow their settings to (on the most part) be uploaded to any compatible phone.
I get 100 gig a month, unltd calls and text from Three for a ridiculously low £15 per month. I WILL NOT give that up !!!!
as much as i want an OP6 im sticking with a tried and tested Samsung S9 plus that to be frank is just as fast on the most part, and you can easily load three or whatever branded software to enable all the wifi calling and volte goodies.
O2 allow this also. The only real way to get volte working on a non 3 handset is when 3 release there factory stock images eventually and they can be flashed after rooting. Even with custom roms volte will not work for instance lineage etc although volte is implemented still doesnt work. I had bought a lenovo p2 a few years ago and volte did not work for a whole year untill 3 factory images were released and i rooted the phone and installed the 3 firmware then it started working. 3 are real scumbags in this regard.

all u need to get three volte working is essentially the ims settings, ive seen people being able to get three volte and wifi calling working on various grey imports. But agreed its a very convoluted process.
All one plus's use their own firmware, they dont have carrier versions like samsung and others ...
That is correct the only way oneplus would have volte settings is iff 3 sold oneplus on contract otherwise it is a difficult process. I would be very interested nevertheless iff someone in the future figured out a way to get volte working on a non 3 phone other than using there firmware. By the way i am not a oneplus owner but in fact i have a xiaomi mi6 but i am in the same boat ref volte.

Unfortunately, I was able to flash the H3G firmware onto my Italian source S8 and use both VoLTE and VoWiFi without ever speaking to Three, same applied to the unbranded S9 I got from CPW SIM free!

I have access to a OP5T and VoLTE and VoWiFi both worked out of the box!
My Pixel 2 - not a chance!
It's easy my dude, there are some bugs with it but hey you can't have both of the best world just yet.
Tutorial : Open Magisk - > Go to Downloads - > Search for VoEnabler - > Reboot - > Activate the VoWiFi and VoLTE in the settings. - > SUCCESS.
Bugs? Only bug I found is that every time someone calls you it will say Unknown (While on VoWiFi, haven't checked on VoLTE yet.)
Let me know how you get on
Three VoLTE working here too using Vo Enabler.
Sorry i am in the weird situation although im not a oneplus 6 owner. I have a xiaomi Mi6 and i used the module voenabler and now i can make calls over wifi but the enhanced Lte option in settings has vanished completely and in the 4636 settings the option for wifi calling became available but the volte option is now greyed out.
I have got VOWIFI working on 3 with pie, I upgraded to 9.0.0 then did this
Dialled *#800#
Went into OnePlus logkit
Went into Function Switch and checked VOWIFI and VOLTE then rebooted
The options now appear in SIM settings and you can turn them on or off.
When I installed 9.0.1 the Function switch options had been removed but as I had already turned them on the SIM options persisted On installing 9.0.2 the Function Switch settings had returned but with a dev test warning.
I have entered airplane mode, turned on WiFi then made and received a call.
The 3 IMS was automatically configured
And some screenshots
I was able to active vowifi but volte is not registering, I did notice that when I connect to WiFi a do a call and during the call I disconnect the WiFi volte start working but only on that call after the call finish it discomect and goes back to no volte. This is on three UK with Pie using the logkit.
@crazdgrunt99 does volte still works for you using the vo enabler?
Got Volte working with 3UK
I got Volte working in my OP6 with 3UK. I used the softwares mentioned here - https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/how-to/guide-volte-vowifi-german-carriers-t3817542
I only installed the softwares mentioned and used *#800# oneplus logkit to enable volte/vowifi options- after that I followed other method used by Jamal , guy who figured out these methods for OP6 (please take EFS backup before this procedure)
Open EFS explorer that is part of qpst software, select your phone , it will start loading directory and files-
Once the directory structure is loaded , go to following path - nv/item_files/modem/mmode
Open the attachment with this post. Delete all files that are same name as in the attachment from Mmode directory in EFS explorer. Note some files are not there. After deletion load the files from attachment to EFS explorer - load as item files - you can select all and load
Reboot phone and it should have Volte working.
Now that A10 is available for the OP6, I can confirm VoLTE working on both OB1 and the production version, at last. (no hacks required)
What about WiFi calling that works too
My brothers OP8 doesn't seem to have the option, although it was available on his pixel 4xl. Any ideas why?
It's brand new, up to date and not rooted.
You will have to check the forums for the basic instructions on how to use the *#800# function and possible installation of the logkit apk, from there you may need to use the PDC program to change another setting. If you check under oneplus 7 pro enabling VOLTE you will see all the info.
I have a oneplus 7pro, and by doing the above changes, VOLTE worked with a Bell SIM. Koodo is another story, I still can't get it to work
Hi, I had Poco F1 before with working VoLTE, so I know that my carrier and current Sim card is supporting it. All I had to do on the F1 was typing in that code *#*#86583#*#* and activating the new volte setting.
I tried that with the X3 but it's not working. Whenever I receive/make a phone call my connection will switch from 4G to 3G.
Is there a workaround or is it a hardware limitation? I could imagine because the X3 just has an entry level SOC that the modem has some artificial restrictions to differentiate from the flagship SOC (845/865).
Did you get a volte carrier check disabled message after dialling that?
For me both volte and vowifi are working fine
Yes I got that. Are you telling the phone your real location or do I have to chose India or china? I remember with my Poco F1 I had to chose India to get features like call recording...btw I'm in Australia.
Changing regions
Anyone know if I do a factory reset and change to a different region like Europe will that make the phone operate on different Verizon bands possibly allowing me to get service? Just a thought ?

If you got the VoLTE was disabled message after entering the code, go to SIM settings and there will show the option to activate VoLTE. If not appears, try to enter the code again and check the SIM settings.

I think using different bands it's more about regional ROMs construction (Global, India, Europe etc) than changing region in ROM settings. Alternative, you can flash a different regional ROM using MiFlash and see if it helps with your problem.
After entering that code I get the switch, to turn on volte, but that doesn't change anything.

Can't you see the specific VoLTE symbol near mobile signal in the upper right corner of the screen? If you can't see it, you can try to make a phone call and see if the google dialer shows it's a VoLTE call (or check the dialer history calls if you use Xiaomi dialer....you'll see there if it was a VoLTE call or not).
Same here with my Poco x3 NFC global I am on Vodafone UK my carrier support volte and vofi but I can't enable it , I have no settings . What I found when I flash custom ROMs the volte works , the sound in voice calls is super crisp and I got the icon always there vote on sim and vofi on WiFi . I need an option or a menu or a trick to show that option in stock ROM to enable it .
I remember back in the days when I had OnePlus I had to go in the ingineer menu to tick on a toggle " enable volte" and "enable vofi"
And later on the OnePlus 7t pro I had to install an apk to force that toggle so I can enable it .
On my Mi Mix 2s it shows volte when enabled. This one no. Poco needs to fix this before a number of users get dumped for lack of volte.

Did you try activate it using this codes in Dialer? VoLTE: *#*#86583#*#* and VoWIFI: *#*#869434#*#*. After that go to your SIM settings and you'll get the option to activate VoLTE and VoWiFi.
I have tried those and I left it on enabled both of them . Still not working

If you have an locked bootloader I'm not aware about a method to flash another regional ROM. I had read that many Poco X3 users have problems getting mobile data connection with Verizon (especially in USA).
Hello anyone has managed to operate the volte on both sim cards simultaneously on his POCO X3? thank you

Got my bootloader unlocked I'll try flash another regional rom
Same here in Italy, no volte, it switch ti 3g. With my previous 8t all was fine
I am using the stock room and used the dial codes got the settings but everytime I tried to make a call it wouldn't work I went to setting all specs and tap internal storage 5 times then choose the sim you are using then you have to turn the top switch off then back on. This is how I got mine working I also have extended my storage by using root explorer and cut everything under sd card and move to storage.
It appears that ting is switching to VoLTE phones required in 2021, but I have an international version, which seems to have VoLTE disabled in the firmware. I have tried the *#*#4636#*#* code and the VoLTE icon is greyed out.
Is there a way to force it to enable? Maybe by rooting the phone, or by changing the firmware?
I'm reading the VoLTE websites for my carriers, and all carriers state that you have to have a certified phone (Poco X3 is ofc missing). The only Xiaomi phone on the list is Note 10 lite.
From what I gather the phone must also run the carrier OS, and the carrier puts a patch in their updates that enables volte on it.
So VoLTE will probably never work on custom ROMs, and 99.9% never on phones that that carrier doesn't sell ? Or is this certification info in the firmware and will be available some time in the future and is ROM independant ?
Why didn't they standardize this so all phones could use it ?

- VoLTE is standardized, I dare to say, roughly all smart phones released in the past 4 - 5 years have VoLTE implemented, and only carrier is limiting which phones can use VoLTE in its network - its common practice to only "support" a few selected manufacturers or phone models - why?
- because carrier is trying to support its own sales (if they sell phones)
- because carrier is creating for whatever reason illusion of false exclusivity - if you want to use VoLTE, you need to use only this phone(s) - and best if you'll buy it from us, and we guarantee you, VoLTE will be working
- which is bull****, only limit is how they configure they network - if they allow all phones with VoLTE to use it, they all will - if enabled in MIUI/custom ROM
- when I purchased POCO X3 NFC, it was on the market maybe two weeks, and yet when I inserted sim card from one of my preferred carrier, guess what - VoLTE was on and active from the first start of the phone - yes MIUI needed some persuasion to actually enable and use it - but after I switched to custom ROMs, VoLTE worked out of the box right after first boot...
However, there is a way to enable VoLTE on Xiaomi devices, you can run this code via dialer " *#*#86583#*#* " after that you will get ' VoLTE carrier check disabled ' statement. Under sim card settings you should see VoLTE.
I'm using .eu rom and it works for me I have no idea for aosp based roms.

- thanks for the exact code to enable VoLTE under MIUI, but unless your carrier enable your specific device, or all devices with VoLTE support in his network, VoLTE will not work even after using this code...
