[Q] VoLTE on AOSP? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So the G2 supposedly supports VoLTE and I see a bunch of instructions online on how to do enable it... if you are running a stock OS. The Internet claimed that the setting should be under the Mobile Networks page in settings but I have not found anything like this setting yet. Am I just blind for AOSP based roms? Or do I have to flash something (like a new radio) to enable the option? I'm currently running Paranoid Android 4.4 (20140629) and my radio is 24A (I think that's the right number?) There's also the option to enable it on verizon's side but wanted to make sure I had the software to support it before pressing... maybe I need to do it the other way?
Thanks!

Ive been playing around with AOSP on my G2 for a few days, and am curious if this is available on any of the builds?

[Q] trouble with custom roms Paranoid

I have been having issues using custom roms on my phone. I tried installing several roms (stable releases) and my phone acts up in different ways. My recent attempt was with paranoid android 3.99 rc2 which I assumed is very popular so it should work well. The problem I am having is that it does not connect to the cell network at all (phone and data). If anyone has seen something like this before please let me know what I might be doing work. Thank you.
check you apn settings.

Grouper ROMs with multiwindow/splitview?

Just wondering if anyone can direct me to a specific grouper ROM (including version) that has a working multiwindow/splitview system built in...
Are there any? The ones I thought should have it didn't seem to.
I've also tried XMultiWindow once, but it just didn't want to work right.Can't remember what ROM I did that on though. Willing to try again if someone knows a working combo
Have you tried Phoenix OS yet?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-7/general/phoenix-os-nexus-7-grouper-t3299266
Probably your best choice if your looking for a multi-window "desktop" experience.
Ah... Nope. I've never seen it before.... It's downloading now
Android 7.0 "Nougat" supports multi-window too, but nougat roms in this forum still first builds.

Wi-Fi Calling on Custom ROM Lineage, Fulmics etc... QUESTION

Hello. Been wondering, what are the necessary prerequisites to get WiFi Calling working on a custom or open EU rom?? Is it only dependant of the /system or maybe do i need to flash modem.zip from a branded ROM that has WiFi Calling enabled? I'm on Fulmics 1.6 which is based on V10T open eu rom and i notticed that in hidden menu, i get a "not supported" message whenever i tap on IMS Settings in Field Test submenu of h870 hidden menu. Now what is necessary to enable IMS Support? Modem file? Tweaks in the system itself? Maybe some additional apk files from a rom that supports WiFi Calling? Help please ...
Back on my Sprint g3, never could get WiFi calling to work on custom roms, some stock based custom roms it would work, others it wouldn't. I'm sure it has to be stock based. Customs roms are missing a lot of necessary files to allow WiFi calling.
sent from my LG G6
Never mind guys... I've managed to enable and activate it oN Fulmics ROM 1.6 V10T GLOBAL-COM based. I will make a thread with a step by step guide of how to do it on stock based roms, maybe custom roms as well, will need testing . Anyways... Please close this thread .
Where is your thread to enable wifi calling??? I need that function due to my location. Thanks!

S8 ROMs for NFC Card Emulator (writing to NFC config file)

I'm looking to use the NFC Card Emulator app with an S8 to emulate my apartment's NFC access card.
I've already done this on my Pixel with no issues--all it really needs is root. But with Samsung phones it's a bit more complicated since apparently Samsung stock doesn't allow you to write to the NFC configuration file, even with root. Supposedly it is possible with a non-stock ROM.
So, before I go on a possible trial-and-error ROM flashing spree, I'm wondering if anyone is aware of any S8 ROMs here that would work for this (or if anyone is actually emulating NFC now and if so, what ROM are you using to do so). Many of the ROMs are stock based, and I'm not sure if that would entail the same limitations on NFC writing.
Cheers

The Xposed one? I hope your have an exynos cause it doesn't work with any snapdragon rom as they are all based off stock

No, it's standalone on the Play store. It can use Xposed to broadcast NFC with screen off, but doesn't need Xposed to work. My Pixel is on stock 8.2 beta 2 and obviously not running Xposed, and the app works just fine so long as the screen is on (even without unlocking). I have my elevator access card written to it so I just tap my phone to use the elevator.
The S8 that I'm trying to replicate this on is one of the Exynos chip models, it's the G950FD. On the app itself, it warns that Samsung devices on stock ROMs won't be able to use the app because Samsung locks the NFC config file, but that any non-stock ROM (and they give Aurora ROM as a specific example) will work fine. Aurora ROM says that it's based on "Samsung Experience 8.1" which I assume means that it's stock based. What I'm wondering is, does that mean I should be able to use any stock based ROM (as long as it isn't actually just stock) and have this work.

Really, I was thinking of that specific app as I installed it from play store. When it didn't work I apparently mistakenly assumed it was due to Xposed when it sounds like it was due to the stock s8 ROMs NFC bits. Good to know! Thanks for the info.
Did it work after all?
Is there no way to do this?
I really want it

What Rom for v20? Want to avoid google, but want to keep wifi calling

Howdy All, I want to put a custom rom on my phone to avoid some of the bloat/spyware associated with stock roms, but I also want wifi calling to work.
Is there a rom that will do that? I was thinking lineage, but a quick brows shows that the wifi talk will not work there.
Thanks
I have an VS995. I read somewhere that if you clean flash the first release of the Oreo Alpha Omega Rom. Then clean flash the most recent Alpha Omega Rom (20c i think), WiFi calling will work. WIFI calling has always been hit or miss with me. After Verizon pushed the 20d Over The Air update I haven't been able to get WIFI calling to work at all. Even after flashing my V20 back to stock with the 20c KDZ and performing the 20d over the air update. I used to think WIFI calling only worked with Verizon if you activated it on the latest firmware. Now I think Android is just impossible. I've been using a Google Voice number as a work around.
AO instructions:
[ Discontinued ] - Alpha Omega Rom [oreo] - vs995 | h910 | H918 | US996
Brought to you by: Flash At Your Own Risk. Alpha rom is based off of the stock oreo LG firmware for the LG V20 Built and based off of the newest updates…

You are going to want a stock rom if you are on Verizon otherwise you will be missing calls. There is a work around for it but you will have to perform it hourly because you'll never know when your not able to send and receive calls unless you try placing one. Not to mention there is no VoLTE (Voice over LTE). or stable camera.
Lastly I find that if you trun off the second display in settings on a stock rom the phone runs almost as good as the pie version of lineage OS. I still miss those arrow keys in the home touch bar though.
Edit: Just waited a day and changed my physical address in Wi-Fi calling setting. Was able to place my first WiFi call in over a year. Maybe I was right.
Where's the "wifi call settings"?
Perhaps it's only on the Verizon model VS995
Settings > Network (tab) >Advanced Calling > Wi-Fi Calling
I am on a tmobile H918, do you think the whole first flash, second flash thing is neccessary for wifi talk and text?
