Hello guys, i am from India. Here, I have activated airtel 3g and i am from Maharashtra state. Here, airtel network uses IDEA network for 3g packs as they don't own the spectrum. I kept my cell in 3g mode and "automatically select network", but it stays in 2g(Same doesnt happen in my note 2, using 3g in auto mode). If i manually select IDEA from the list of networks, it goes to 3g. I want to keep it on auto, like switch to 2g when 3g is not available. Settings are same. How to make it switch to 3g automatically. Preferred mode is 3g. Any problem in my handset?
Thanks

VOLTE should work out of the box.

4G is technically LTE. The Xiaomi firmware doesn't seem to have an LTE icon, at least not that I have seen. 4G and 4G+ are LTE and LTE-A.

thanks for the info
After the *#*#86583#*#, try going into Mobile & Networks, and select your SIM card. There should be a VoLTE enabled option now. This option didn't show up for me until I did that and then I had to turn it on.
There's now a tiny VoLTE icon in the notification bar and when I'm on a call, it stays there.
Try code *#*#869434*#*# to disable VoWIFI check. And check if it working on T-Mobile.
I don't have Tmobile to check it.

No, VoWifi doesn't work on t mobile
What ROM's have people tried for WiFi Calling? Does the OP refer to T-Mobile in the UK/EU or USA? The Global Stable seems to have some less features compared to the Chinese Stable. I had Advanced Messaging working in the default text app when I was on Chinese Stable by doing nothing but it does not seem to work on the Global Stable.
got volte working on tmobile US just not wifi calling but its fine

Which ROM is your device using? I really want to flash my green one back to the Chinese Stable. Global Stable just isn't as good in my opinion.

Eu global the lastest one 10.2.2.0
Ever find a solution to this? I am on MIUI Global 10.3 (Stable) and am able to turn off Mobile data( T Mobile is my carrier in U.S.) and with my WiFi on the device i can still make and receive phone calls. In this configuration i obviously still see my WiFi symbol in the Notification bar as well as the VoLTE symbol. Don't know if this will help you at all, but it is some stuff i have noticed recently when i was trying to figure out why T-Mobile apps dont work on my Mi Mix 3.
With WiFi turned off and Mobile Data turned on i am able to make phone calls(obviously) with VoLTE and am able to see the LTE+ symbol in the Notification bar as well.
If i go to About Phone --> Tap "Internal Storage" 4 time(brings you to the Testing Menu) and looking into the Phone Info i see the following...
Set Preferred Network Type: LTE/TD-SCDMA/UMTS
Mobile Radio Power: On
VoLTE Provisioned: Off
Video Calling Provisioned: Off
WiFi Calling Provisioned: Off
EAB/Presence Provisioned: Off
When i bring this menu up on my previous phone(LG G7 ThinQ) i see that the Preferred Network type was different...so i changed my Mi Mix 3 just to match to see how it would change
My LG G7(without a SIM inserted) shows the following
Set Preferred Network Type: LTE/UMTS auto (PRL)
Mobile Radio Power: On
VoLTE Provisioned: On
Video Calling Provisioned: On
WiFi Calling Provisioned: On
EAB/Presence Provisioned: Off
Changing the network type on my Mi Mix 3 didnt do much, however when i changed it LTE/CDMA/UMTS auto(PRL) the VoLTE Provisioned and Video Calling Provisioned both switched to "On".
I dont quite understand this so for the most part i have just left it to match my LG's setting since i can change the network type back to LTE/UMTS auto(PRL) after and the settings stay set to "On"
Made a few test phone calls after with WiFi on and off, everything seems to work just fine regardless of what the phone displays.

Put the device in airplane mode, then turn on WiFi. Can you make calls? I can't! Turning on WiFi and enabling WiFi Calling doesn't mean the calls are going over WiFi. Especially if you are still seeing VoLTE or any time of mobile network connection.
Edit: Go down to the very bottom, hit more, hit IMS status, and see what it says.
Yeah I looked at the IMIS before, voice over wifi has always(I assume) said not unavailable

No access to the IMS settimgs is more than likely why we can't get it working. We cam't see the settings to even compare them to what they should be.
I am on MIUI Global 10.3 (Stable) / Chinese Device / T-Mobile Germany.
VoWiFi as well as VoLTE are working on my device, however you need root access to enable the VoWiFi profile.
Once it is working you will see the WiFi calling icon in the status bar.
I was following this guide to enable WiFi calling on the Mi Mix 3:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/how-to/guide-activate-vowifi-wlan-call-t3871263
I don't know if the mentioned profile will work in other countries as well but maybe someone with more insight can shed some light into this.
I remember that VoLTE was working out of the box, you just have to disable the carrier check with the USSD code to make it available in settings.
VoWiFi can be enabled via USSD code as well, however even after changing the setting to enabled and preferred WiFi calling it does not register without the profile change.
VoLTE: *#*#86583#*#*
VoWiFi: *#*#869434#*#*
I had to redo the profile change after each upgrade with TWRP, since the firmware partitions get updated as well.
I hope this will help. :fingers-crossed:
I have Mix 3 with U.S T-Mobile service. After disabling the VoWiFi check with *#*#869434#*#*, the option for WiFi calling check box appears under the T-Mobile SIM section, but WiFi calling is not working when tested under airplane mode with WiFi enabled.
Vowifi works fine on MTS (Russia). All you need:
1. Activate vowifi service from the operator
2. Disable service check by command: *#*#869434#*#*
3. Create folder into: /system_root/system/priv-app/MBNLoader
4. Copy into this folder APK: MBNLoader.apk (View attachment MBNLoader.apk
5. Give right privileges: -rw-r--r--
6. Reboot phone
7. Install from play market QuickshortcutMaker: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sika524.android.quickshortcut
8. Open it and go to tab apps
9. Find Modem Config
10. Open it (tap) and you will see a lot of MCFG Modem configs.
11. Try one by one to start vowifi working
12. Enjoy!

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.

That's awesome thank you. You might have just swung a sale for Sony. You should be on commission :laugh:.
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.
Hi,
My phone is stock and unrooted on OxygenOS 11.1.5.5.AC01BA.
Although I can see the toggle to enable WiFi Calling, the menu item to allow me to select the WiFi Calling preference isn't there.
To expand on that, the option isn't there on SIM1 (3 UK), but it is there for SIM2 (O2 UK).
My main problem is that my house is right on the edge of 3's coverage, so the phone often tries to use the poor cellular signal rather than the good WiFi signal.
Does anyone have any idea how I can get the WiFi Calling Preferences menu item to show for my 3UK SIM?
Thanks in advance.
I have Orange and Vodafone and also have the option for calling pref only for sim2. Maybe it`s by design. Did you try swaping the sims?
Yes, I tried that but no luck. The option was then only available on SIM1.
I'm On 3 and only way to do it was put it into airplane mode WiFi calling works fine. But obviously no what's app sms etc
