Activate Volte on Pixel 4XL - Android 11 R - Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi Guys
Finally i was able to activate volte on my carrier (STC-KSA) by the help of @somin.n module
You need to have unlocked bootloader and Magisk Canary installed
1. Flash the attached module via Magisk and reboot
2. Check and activate Volte in settings
3. Dial *#*#4636#*#* > check IMS service status > you should find IMS service registered and VOLTE is available
4. You are good to GO !
Edit: it look like you need a Magisk module "SELinux Permissive" to get it working with you.
Note:
I had a problem that the volte getting disabled after a reboot, in order to fix this:
1. After applying the module restart your phone
2. go to settings>network>Mobile network> wifi calling> choose "call over mobile network"
3. Turn off your phone and take out your sim card.
4. Turn it on again with sim card uninstalled.
5. Turn off your phone, install your sim card , turn it on again.
Note: i have installed vodafone UK mbn file for my phone, you may need to change mbn file for your carrier (attached Mi9T mbn files)
in order to change mbn file:
1. Download the attached Mi9T mbn
2. Extract the file and choose the desired mbn file
3. open "Volte Pixel 4.zip" and go to
Code:
/system/vendor/rfs/msm/mpss/readonly/vendor/mbn/mcfg_sw/generic/myown/
and paste your choosen MBN file.
4. Go to the mentioned flashing steps and you are good to go!

Did both ways - with my own mbn and stock zip's - no changes at all (
It only makes a Volte toggle to appear in settings - but it doesnt change anything for me

It's based on replacing files on your system partition, so you def need an bootloader unlock.
You could flash rom with this change and choose not to root this rom, but on stock it is not possible afaik.

Just to say many thanks Eiad Ajam and somin.n. It work for me running R11 rooted with Canary build.
I've tried many many of Mi9T mbn files with my current profile (SEA, Hong Kong CSL/1010) but still not working.

The mbn file should inside below path of mi9t.zip :
mbns-mi9t.zip\russia\megafon\commerci\ru\mcfg_sw.mbn
Extract it and replaced with the :
VOLTE_Pixel_4.zip\system\vendor\rfs\msm\mpss\readonly\vendor\mbn\mcfg_sw\generic\myown\mcfg_sw.mbn
PS: No selinux_permissive is required.
Good luck.

When I updated to R11 with Oct security update, the VoLte broken again and it unable activated since remove/add few times.
Luckily, It worked again when I added SELinux Permissive back.
Please try it again with my flow.

No radio signal MI4i

From an upgrade he stopped receiving GPRS signal both slots in my Xiaomi mi4i.
I've tried everything, factory reset, load roms from TWRP recovery from ADB sideload and from FlashBoot. ROMs development, global and weekly roms, and happens all the same, impossible to receive GPRS, GSM and WCDMA signal.
- No coverage icon appears on the card itself detects the mobile operator, but if you go to Settings / SIM card is deactivated status for the two and there is no option to activate.
- If you go to call tells you the radio is off and take away the airplane mode.
- The IMEI SIM cards is not lost, if frame ma * # 06 # IMEI appears both SIMs slots.
- If I go to Settings / About the phone / state in state service said Radio off / turn and Cellular Network Data desconnected state.
- If I go to Settings / About the phone and pulse several times on Kernel version, entered the Test Hardware, skewer in "3. SIM card" and the only information provided it is that it detects the SIMs but the test result is Fail.
- If I go to Settings / About the phone and pulse several times on internal memory from this menu you access to information from the SIM cards (Phone information). That I can see:
- Phone number:
- Current network: off
- GSM service: Radio Off
- GPRS service: disconnected
- Network type: unknown
- There are few buttons turn on radio, select the type of network does not work etc but the option to enable it.
If anyone knows how to fix appreciate it.

Help to choose proper location and FW for Ukraine region

There is hw/eu and hw/ru (and other) regions location.
What is the difference between them and help please to choose proper location and firmware.
ru location have 172 firmware, eu - 170. KangVIP - 170 based.
Previously was AL10 cn
Elseone: which item must be flashed first (or not important?) - location file or firmware ?

Upgrade AL10 form 182 to 353

Hello,
I have AL10C00B182 ROM - ota upgrade after start use the phone.
Now I have two question:
Can I upgrade from AL10C00B182 to B353 without any other upgrades (dload method)?
Thank!
since u got the OTA to B182, im guessing ure on full stock with locked bootload and no root so in that case, installation of B353 via dload method is no problem. enjoy!
Thank you.
Now I'm on 353 (AL10) with unlocked bootloader.
I'll instal TWPR (EMUI 4.1) with decryption support and them what..?
1. install superSU
2. Have to I do wipe system or with decryption support is not nesesery?
Clean ROM with root is all I need Maybe KangVIP
hello,
May I ask how did you update your AL10C00B182 to B353?
I just had the phone for 2 days and tried checking for updates, but no updates so far.

- copy the UPDATE.APP to the internal memory in a folder called - dload (you may have to create it),
- power off phone,
- press [volume+]+ [volume-]+[power] together to force the update,
- done
Please check somethink:
In dialer * # * # 2846579 # * # * Enter and then 3 - Network Information and then on 4 - Vendor Country Info
Here you will find a following entries:
I have Vendor: all

cust specseas = C636 - Asia
cust meanaf = C185 - Africa / Middle East

MATE 8 - L09 - Change region

Good morning Everyone
I have an Mate 8 L09C605 (Latin America) and i am trying to change its region to C432 (Europe) but it is impossible to find the oeminfo and custom.bin
Could someone share those files from the C432 please?
With all those rom players i guess there is a lot of backups out there... should not be so difficult to find
Thanks a lot.
Me too. Please help us. Thank you
Cust international (normal) = C900 OTA LOSS but you should be able to install rom from any region
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update running
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update OK. Now i am L09C900B320
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The only thing I can not remember is how I am switched to L09C900B100 ... too much manipulation with SRK Tool among others with the change of region.
But it seems to me that it is doing as follows:
1- Full backup with TWRP -Before to change region-
2- Reboot
3- Region change (SRK Tool)
4- Restore TWRP Backup
5- Reboot (it seems to me that at this moment I found myself in L09C900B100, my starting Rom was L09C605B100 (Latin America). So if your starting Rom is a B180 for example, you should end up with L09C900B180.
THEN...
1- Create dload on SDCard with UPPDATE.APP (in my case from L09C432B320)
2- Restore Huawei recovery (SRK Tool)
3- Launch update * # * # 2846579 # * # *
4- Install TWRP EMUI 4.1 (SRK tool)
7- Root with TWRP
8- Reboot

First of all, thank you for spending your precious time writing out the instructions for us.
I followed exactly as your instruction; however, at the end, when I checked About Phone in Settings, my phone is L29C432B320 instead of L09C432B320. This is why I need the OEMINFO and CUSTOM.BIN file for L09C432B320. Thank you
Before to change the region (that gave you the L29), have you done the TWRP backup? While you where still in L09?
Oops! I don't think I did. Do you think that could be the case? BTW, how do you like C432 stock firmware? Is it any better than C636? Thank you
Yes i think that is thé reason. C432 or C636 are not firmware but région. Thé firmware i had was B100 ans now i am with B320. So far m'y phone is faster even without doing any Factory reset. But for stability ans battery life, i can't say yet.
I Guess you could be back to L09 by changing with Srk Tool the buildprop things, but better check with specialists on the fórum.
Thank you, platajeret.
I went back to L09C636B191
backup System with TWRP (for some reasons, TWRP wouldn't lemme backup Data)
reboot
changed Region
reboot
restored Backup in TWRP
dload L09C432B192
I still get L29C432B192 after all was done. So frustrated.

PSA: I bought the phone from some other country & I want VoTLE to work in my country!

PSA: I bought the phone from some other country & I want VoTLE to work in my country!
Given your Mobile Operator supports VoLTE, working of it depends on your phone's firmware. Especially two components of the firmware called "CSC" and "CP". CSC, depending on who you ask, is either Country Specific (Product) Code or Country Specific Content. CP or "Core Processor" is the firmware for your modem.
OBJECTIVE OF THE POST: Determine if your phone supports your mobile phone operators LTE bands. Check which firmware you need to change to. How to obtain that firmware.
WARNING: MESSING WITH FIRMWARE CAN TURN YOUR PHONE INTO A PAPER WEIGHT.​
PART A [CP] : Does my phone support VoTLE provided by my Mobile Operator to begin with?
1. First of all your modem should support the bands used by your mobile operator. You need to cross check bands supported by your Mobile Operator and your phone modem.
2. Search for the LTE bands supported by your mobile operator. Make a list.
3. To check the LTE Bands supported by your phone modem you need to know the Model Number of your phone. Goto Settings -> About Phone. You will see the Model Number there. Now goto Samsung website and check the phone specs using the model number. Specs - > Show all specs -> Network/Bearer-> 4G FDD/TDD TLE.
4. After cross checking bands from #2 and #3 if any of the bands match proceed to Part B. If not, unfortunately your phone cannot support VoTLE for your mobile operator; this post is no longer relevant to you. Maybe change the mobile operator and go through PART A again.
PART B [CSC] : Can I change the firmware on my phone to make VoLTE work?
1. Now you need to change the firmware of your phone. Change it to the current country you are in. The country in which you wish to utilize VoTLE. The country in which your mobile operator is.
2. To which firmware you can change to depends on your firmware's CSC. You cannot jump from any firmware to any other firmware. That stuff is locked down by Samsung.
3. You need to know your phone's firmware's CSC to know which firmwares you can change to.
4. Install the "Phone INFO Samsung" app. Open App, goto "CSC CODE" tap. You can see your Firmware's CSC code. But more importantly see "Available CSC Codes" section. Available CSC Codes tells you to which firmware you can change to.
5. Search each of those codes (Available CSC) in this page or the internet.
6. If any CSC corresponds to your Country/Mobile operator-- congratulations you can now change to that firmware and VoLTE will work for you. Note down that CSC code.
Eg: If you are in the country "India" and one of the Availabe CSC is "INS", you will find the entry "India= INU (unbranded), IND, INA, INS (unbranded), IMS, REL". [Success]
If you are in the country "Singapore" and one of the Availabe CSC is "XSP", you will find the entry "Singapore= MM1, XSP (unbranded), SIN (Singtel), STH (Starhub), BGD, XSO". [Success]
7. If none of the CSC codes correspond to your Country/Mobile operator then at present there is no way to make VoLTE work on your phone. Contact your mobile operator if there is work around for this, probably like an app.
Eg: If your avialabe CSC are : {BRI, CAM, LAO, ... , SIN, SMA, STH} and your country is "India" : India= {INU (unbranded), IND, INA, INS (unbranded), IMS, REL}; you can see those two sets have no common CSC [Failure]
PART C: How to get the correct firmware file according to the CSC?
If you have root, there used to be apps to just change the CSC to the required CSC Code. Used to be.
I am not really sure but you may try following that route and skip PART C.
Hint: Phone INFO Samsung app -> Hamburger menu -> other tools -> CSC Changer (ROOT)
PS:Rooting trips KNOX. No more Samsung Pay etc.
