Not sure exactly when this broke but I no longer have the choice to choose "Enhanced 4G LTE Mode" in Cellular Network Settings so I cannot make calls and receive data. Anyone else run into this? If I am on a call, I get the little exclamation point in the signal bars.
Appreciate any suggestions. Thanks

March security update
HD Calling shows as part of my Verizon account
If you don't see the option in Cellular Network Settings, I would check and make sure the feature is still enable on your account by logging into Verizon. If it is enabled, toggle it off; then on. Then reboot phone.
Hopefully that works. If not, I would try a hard reset.

i toggled it on and off on verizon's site which resolved the problem when i had it
Crap crap crappity crap...I tried toggling off, waited 15 min, toggled back on, waited 15 min and then rebooted. No dice. I will try calling them and see if they can toggle it at the corporate level. I remember having to do that when I first got the device.
RESOLVED - updated to the April Security patch then toggled HD Calling off and then on again on the Vzw site. I waited 15 min for it to take affect and then did a sim pull and then rebooted. Now the "enhanced calling" option appears and testing voice and data worked.
Thanks for the help earlier.

My wife and I live up in the foothills of Colorado where there are no Sprint cell towers. There is one cell tower which our Sprint S7 edges can barely pick up that comes and goes and indicates that we are roaming. For a few seconds our phones might see it but then it will go away for minutes, then it will come back only to go away again ... etc. In any event, it was necessary to use Wifi calling when we are at my home. Prior to the Nougat upgrade everything was fine. As soon as we walked into the house our S7 edges would connect, Wifi calling would activate and would be functional. After the Nougat update we have discovered that Wifi calling no longer works unless we can also see that one roaming cell tower. Then Wifi calling turns on, stays on and we can make/receive calls. I emphasize that this behavior occurs with both our phones.
This problem makes all the Sprint stores basically useless. Since they are located where there are towers, Wifi calling works as expected. As a result Sprint has been absolutely no help. I am wondering if anybody else has had problems with Sprint Wifi calling when unable to see a cell tower? If so could you work around the problem? I am open to suggestions. I consider this a bug in the Spring S7 edge firmware.
BTW, I know that when I can make a call, Wifi calling is used because the pop-up "Congratulations you just made a Wifi call" appears. I purposedly have not turned that off to be sure I am not using that one roaming tower. What is interesting is that I only need to be able to see the "R" by the triangle showing cell tower strength (don't need any bars) and then the Wifi calling icon will turn on. At that point I can make a phone call and even if I lose the connection to that one cell tower (i.e. the "R" disappears) the Wifi call will remain active. I can go anywhere in my house and not drop the call. But once I hang up, the Wifi calling icon will gray out with a slash through it, the phone will indicate that there is no network and the phone can only make emergency calls.
If I cannot get a fix to this problem then I might just have to go back to the last Marshmallow firmware and block the update if possible.
just for the hell of it to check, I turned on airplane mode and left it for 5 mins, leaving it on turned wifi on, and wifi calling connected within a few seconds of wifi connecting. I am on the nougat update. I have absolutely no cell signal as that is turned off. I am able to make calls without a problem.
Reboot your phone into recovery and clear cache and try again.
also, you may want to check and make sure "smart switch" is turned off. it's under the connections > wifi > advanced > smart network switch. I haven't tested it, but in theory it might demand you be connected to a cellular network to work and be causing your problem.

Thanks for the suggestions. I tried several things. First I verified that I already had "smart switch" turned off. So I went ahead and turned it back on... no love with that feature either turned on or off. Second, I rebooted as you suggested into recovery and cleared the cache. That also did not fix the problem. Third I tried the same experiment as you and turned on airplane mode. I waited a bit (maybe not the same 5 minutes) and then turned on the Wifi and Wifi calling. Again no love. I even tried to make a call and the phone told me I had to turn off airplane mode. For whatever reason Wifi calling will only activate when the phone can see that one tower and starts roaming. At least I can use your experiment to demonstrate the problem at a Sprint store. I might just try using Odin to flash nougat and start clean and see if I cannot get this to work that way. I really don't want to go back to using the Airave although that was pretty reliable for me.

So question is, if you go somewhere with signal and wifi you can connect too, turn on airplane mode, leave it on and turn wifi on, does wifi calling work. If not then for sure a reset is in order.
If it does work, then that just tells me the phone isn't really turning everything off with airplane mode on (which is lame) and sprint just goofed up the nougat update and you are the extremely small % that falls victim.
I haven't been able to get WiFi calling to work on my Edge since new. UNTIL I upgraded to Nougat. Now it seems to be working fine. Go figure.

Okay some interesting data. I did exactly this experiment this morning. I drove into my office, connected up to the office WiFi and placed my phone into airplane mode. I then turned on WiFi and WiFi calling. Voila I could make a WiFi call!
However I did not stop there. One of the keys to all this is that the one tower happens to cause "roaming" if my phone was lucky enough to connect to it. So for grins I changed the network mode from automatic to LTE/CDMA (Sprint & Verizon are CDMA). When I was back at the house guess what... WiFi calling now works. Interestingly the phone is in "searching for service" mode which implies that the one cell tower seen from my house is either AT&T or T-Mobile which use GSM. By turning off automatic mode everything worked.
It is kind of a bummer but what seems to fix the issue is to choose Connections->Mobile networks->Network mode->LTE/CDMA. Each time a switch is made from Connections->Mobile networks->Network mode->Automatic back to Connections->Mobile networks->Network mode->LTE/CDMA, etc. the phone has to be rebooted. Unfortunately while traveling in a car Automatic mode is desired and at the house LTE/CDMA is best. Switching back and forth will be a PITA because of the reboot but at least I don't have to go back to the Airave.
I tried to explain this to the Sprint rep. on the phone this evening but he did not understand. Over the weekend I might try a clean install via Odin and see if that improves things. I hate doing that because it takes a fair amount of time to put the phone apps back together. I also have my doubts it will fix anything. IMO something broke with the Nougat upgrade and nothing I do will fix it. And as you point out, I am in that very tiny percentage of people who might actually experience an issue.

Just out of curiosity have you tried turning your roaming off? Or adjust the settings to not connect?

Thanks for the idea.
So while my wife and I were having lunch in town this afternoon, I took our phones and toggled LTE/CDMA and Automatic modes. When we arrived at the house with the phones in Automatic mode WiFi calling worked. I think as long as the phones do not roam and connect to that GSM cell tower, WiFi calling seems to work. So I put both our phones into Home only mode (Settings->Connections->Mobile networks->Data roaming->Roaming network->Home only). So far so good. Both our phones have had WiFi calling activated now for several hours so I think the strategy works. Turning roaming on and off is not as painful as changing the network mode. Still the Nougat behavior is very different, I dare say, broken from Marshmallow behavior.

It's weird and I would bet money something they accidentally broke and such odd and perfect conditions have to be met to make it present itself, they probably had no idea. The sad thing is, this bug probably affects so few people, and most will probably not be tech people and will just get frustrated and switch carriers, and so the bug probably won't ever get fixed, except by accident possibly.
On a side note have you tried changing your location settings to GPS only. If you have it set for a method that looks for towers that might be the issue right there. GPS-LOCATING METHOD-DEVICE ONLY.

I just tried the experiment. That did not work and in fact broke WiFi calling. So far the only solution is to toggle the LTE/CDMA and Automatic network modes where there is a Sprint tower preferably and then turn off roaming as I drive up to the house. Then WiFi calling works without issue. Nice thought though.

Okay so things get even worse. Today I drove up to the house with roaming turned off and network mode automatic. After parking the car and walking to the end of the driveway to retrieve my garabage can, not only did WiFi calling fail to activate but I could not turn roaming back on. The Settings->Connections->Mobile networks->Data roaming->Roaming network menu is greyed out. IMO, Sprint has hosed up their edition of Nougat. So I will be left with a brick as a phone while I am up here at 8400' at my house. I am quite pissed.
FWIW, what I think happened is I walked to the end of my driveway and lost my WiFi connection. That caused WiFi calling to shut off and now it will not turn back on. At least if I could get roaming turned back on I could try and connect up to that one lonely GSM tower to possibly fix this issue. But I cannot even do that because the Roaming network menu is greyed out. I am going to have to drive into town just to fix this problem. Ugh!

Found the fix... Updated the PRL & Profile. I guess the phone lost its mind and could not find it once the WiFi was dropped.
Many retail mobiles have "Wifi Calling" function but not any menu entry to enable , The APP can check the hidden function and enable it if can use.

First I am on Verizon.
I have to PH-1's I did a factory reset and updated one to 8.1. I don't see LTE or LTE+ anywhere AND every time I turn it on, it says no SIM card. Then after I enter my pin. It shows Verizon.
Also Backup's all say "waiting to backup"
Ideas?
Thanks

Was your device on Sprint first?
The SIM stuff is not a surprise. I see the same behavior.
If you wait long enough, it will connect.
Never on Sprint. Just very bad reception now. Backups still waiting. Phone connectivity seems somehow related to wifi on/off poor or none existant. Very strange. Also will not connect at all to my Verizon range extender with any settings.

Shows fine in the tray here
If I go into Phone Info and look at carrier provisioning Info, I see Provisioning failed trying to restart session.
Clicking on "Trigger carrier provisioning" seems to do nothing.
Volte tends to stay off.
Partial fix: new activated SIM install in VERY strong LTE location with WIFi OFF! But it will not fall back to 3G. Now I can turn WiFi back on. Wish 3G worked.
just got the phone yesterday and updated it to the P beta. everything works amazingly well for a beta in my opinion, BUT i cant receive calls. outgoing calls, texts, web and apps are just fine.
spent almost 2 hours at tmobile flipping all the settings around and no luck. any ideas would be appreciated.
Same issue here bro...Incoming don't ring but I get voicemail notifications.... Really annoying, even if it is a DP.
Turns out the beta doesn't play well with the essential LTE. Switch to 3g and calls will come through. Hopefully it doesn't take long to find a work around for it
I believe the people having this issue have volte enabled...try and disable volte (it's broken anyway and more than likely why calls won't ring through) and see if that works
Got same issue... My experience was that I could solve the problem with reboot.
Issue came after playing on settings for mobile network.
Is meaning, when you do this you have to reboot afterwards otherwise you can't receive calls
Try it.

Tried rebooting multiple times while changing settings around. The only way I can get the calls to come through is by going without LTE completely.

Settings/network settings/mobile network/advanced/enhanced LTE?
I had the same issue and to fix mine I just enabled Wifi Calling.
When on wifi I didn't get a call, just missed call notification. After enabling wifi calling, it comes through without issue.
I tested calling off wifi and on wifi and all calls come through good now.
This could be similar, so you guys might want to look at that also.
Good luck!
Heard from a few that this was solved by going into phone app settings -> calls -> calling accounts, then turning on "receive incoming calls". Seems it's disabled to save battery? Can't confirm as I just flashed to try it out and then went back to 8.1 because I like themes too much. Lol.
I'm on Sprint and was never able to make or receive calls regardless of Network settings in the easily accessible options menu.
The following fixed my issue. You can access this menu without downloading an app but I forget how so it's easier to just download the free app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xsquarestudio.forcelte
I had my network mode set to LTE/CDMA when first using this app, and somewhere in the middle I changed it to CDMA but I'm not sure how much that impacted the actual fix.
These were my steps. I'm not responsible for any damage this may cause to your device as I'm not sure if messing with these settings is foolproof or not.
First, opened previously linked app "Force LTE" then under "Set Preferred Network Type" I changed to CDMA only. Enabled/disabled airplane mode. This seemed to do nothing as LTE was still showing in statusbar.
I then chose CDMA auto (PRL), airplane mode on/off, didn't seem to do much either. LTE still showed in statusbar and couldn't make calls. Also "Voice Network Type" showed "Emergency Calls only" inside the app.
I then chose the 3 dot menu and chose "select radio band". I changed that to United States, without resolving problem. Then selected "Cellular 800" and this may have solved the problem, but I continued on and selected PCS, fiddled with some settings in Phones settings menu. Was finally able to receive calls and my signal indicator showed 3G. In app Voice Network Type was listed as 1xRtt. I decided to select radio band once more and chose Class 10.
Calls were still functioning fine. So I went into Main settings menu and changed mobile network from CDMA to LTE/CDMA. LTE kicked in and calls still work!
Again, these settings may only work for Sprint hence the PCS Network option, and I believe Sprint may utilize the 800mhz frequency. The app might show you different options depending on your carrier. I don't know.
Anyway, fully functioning! Woohoo!!

I don't have anything in my settings that says "enhanced LTE" .
Tried using the 4g/LTE and the LTE only options. Neither would let calls through.
I have this problem using the Essential PH-1 with Android 9 Pie in South Korea on the KT network. It should be fully compatible, according to radio specifications, however it only works when I change the following setting:
Settings | Network & Internet | Mobile network | Advanced | Preferred network type | 3G
This is not ideal, since it makes the Internet slow, but at least I can make/receive voice calls. I submitted a support ticket to Essential requesting their official help (I'm well within warranty).
I had the same issue when I use my Att prepaid plan. The problem is caused by wrong network type, you can send text and browse internet, because they use the different channel. My PH-1 wrongly recognized the sim as CDMA/LTE mode, just switch it to 4G/LTE, it will be work. Go to Settings, then search "wi-fi calling", point "advanced" then you can see an opinion "Preferred network type" if you are ATT or T-mobile user, and your preferred network type is "LTE/CDMA“ then your phone cannot make call. Switch it to "4G/LTE", you phone will be work. BTW, Verzion uses CDMA, so if you are Verzion user, CDMA/LTE will work for you phone.
On Sprint's Network, unlocked bootloader & critical partitions. Anytime I even receive a notification for a phone call coming in, my LTE is dropped instantly. Deny or hang up the call, it comes back. I've read that Sprint's 3G can't handle voice and data at the same time, but this is 4G. Wifi is also completely useless on this phone as it stays connected for about 60 seconds tops.
Tried doing a complete wipe and reset to both Pie stable and Q beta 6, same exact thing. Tried all the network options in settings and nothing.
Does anyone with Sprint have working LTE during a phone call? I'm trying to figure out if it's a **** copy I got from Amazon, or the network. Thanks.

I can't say anything about Sprint, but VoLte on Verizon behaves the same way for me on Q beta 6. If the radio cycles for any reason I lose VoLte even if it shows selected. I have to toggle it in network settings for it to work.
Just curious, if you go into the phone info with *#*#4636#*#*, does it show that VoLte is provisioned?

I've been getting complaints about my cell phone connection for about a week now, and I've realized that I'm on voLTE. I quickly found the setting but it's grayed out! I can't toggle it off at all. I've tried limiting my networks around, I suppose the fastest fix would be to dock it down all the way to 3g (and while I'm home that doesn't seem like a bad option) but I'm wondering if anyone here has had a similar experience.
I'll likely launch another sprint ticket but I've already yelled at them once today about my bill (regarding the purchase of the s20)
My whole family is having this issue, they live in a place with 1 or 2 bars of nothing and it won't switch to wifi calling unless they put their phones in airplane mode or switch to 2G(GSM). But in certain places it will switch to wifi calling, it says in the Wifi Calling FAQ that as of April it would be prioritizing VOLTE over WiFi Calling.
Go into settings, General Management , Reset and Reset Network settings. You will have to log back on to your wifi and turn on Wifi Calling afterwards. It should then work. I have to do this occasionally.

On my Sprint S20, I was able to use Samsung Band Selector app to disable VOLTE, but it knocked out 5G. I have not been able to have VOLTE but still get 5G working with Sprint. Anyone else?
