Advanced Calling and WiFi Calling won't enable - Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Rooted G900V with MM 6.0.1. Trying to enable Advanced Calling and I get the message that it is already enabled on my line and to power off and back on my device. Still doesn't work. Is this just a known issue with a rooted device or is there some trick to get it working? I saw a post about toggling Global to LTE and I'm trying that and so far, I have a status that says upgrade in progress and you will receive a message shortly when upgrading complete but things have not progressed from there (so far).

no good ideas, eh?

If you aren't on Verizon service it won't work is what I have heard pretty much everywhere and from everyone

If you are on Verizon service try temporarily disabling root and see if that works

if youre not on verizon service it wont work. if you are just call them and ask them to refresh your 4g preferred roaming list or PRL. if they dont know what you mean hang up and get another rep. if that doesnt work pull your battery then pull your sim then try to power on without it and then put it back in and power back on. youll eventually get it, i went through that for months

This is strange but I occasionally have a problem where this happens (advanced calling previously works then is grayed out and it quits working for no apparent reason). What I have found fixes it on a rooted phone is you backup the settings storage app with titanium backup then restore the data from the backup you just made then reboot. For some reason this fixes it for me. I know this is an old thread but hope this info helps someone else having this issue.

[Q] Phone doesn't make calls

Hello all. So my rooted I337 stops making phone calls intermittently. It comes and goes completely by random. I can't hear the other person and they can't hear me. Nothing fixes it consistently. This happens across all the ROMs I've tried. Samsung tested all the hardware and said it was fine. T-Mobile confirmed it was not a network issue. I've flashed a number of different ROMs, SS 3.72 and 3.75, I've used the phone without putting ANY user apps on it at all, etc. I always get the same results eventually. I'm sort of at wit's end here. I've also attached a logcat (fist time doing one) if it's any help. I've also already got a new SIM card and changed the SIM tray (a pro did it) just in case to no avail. Thanks in advance.
I'm hoping someone knows the answer. My phone has similar issues. I have data and get normal text messages but my phone will not call out or can i receive calls. i did find a work around but not happy about it. if i dial *#*#4636*#*# then change radio from LTE/GSM Auto prl to GSM then calls data and text all work but at obviously slow speeds.
I337 OC3 rooted

Is your phone unlocked? If so is it unlocked by code from t-mobile or thru regionlockaway or similar method?
Changing the radio signal doesn't work for me, but I have noticed that the calls stop working when I turn off the dialing keypad tones. That being said, about a hundred other things can make the phone calls go silent, including, I suspect, installing Google Voice, Google Hangouts, or altering the ROM in literally any way.

Nexus 6P - Microphone has stopped working

Got my phone on Thursday. Everything has been fine. Have been making phone calls and using OK Google ever since.
Woke up this morning and called Verizon (using my GF's phone) to see if they could get HD Voice/VOLTE working. (I did not make any phone calls from my phone this morning so I can't say 100% that the microphone was working today). Tier 2 support asked me install the My Verizon App. Verizon Rep called my phone, HD calling showed up (but we didn't actually converse over my phone) and we finished up.
Tried to make a phone call from my phone and nothing can be heard coming from my end. Nothing through "OK Google". Nothing when making phone calls on Wi-fi through Google Hangouts.
I've factory reset. I've unrooted/locked bootloader. Gone 100% to stock using these instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206928
It would seem as the microphone is dead or muted somewhere.
Is there something obvious that I'm overlooking?
Verizon screwed something up when setting up VOLTE? I would ask them to put it back to the other one and see if that fixes it. Otherwise, replace.

I pulled the SIM from the 6P and put it back into my Nexus 6. The Nexus 6 is working just fine. I'll put the SIM back in the 6P when I get home. Maybe do another factory reset without the SIM in and try OK Google and a Google Hangout call over WiFi.
Is there a possibility there is a setting somewhere in the phone that is not getting wiped when doing a factory reset? Could something have changed in say, the build.prop (for example), that has muted all of the microphones?
Not sure. I'm guessing they could have sent something to the phone. I think there is a dial thing you can do to toggle VOLTE on and off. Let me see if I can find it.

Enter the menu with the dial code and see if you can turn it back off.
I don't have a 6P yet but I had a similar problem with an LG phone. It turned out it was the Google app. I turned off the OK Google feature in settings and the mic began working again. It was fixed in a subsequent app update. Worth a shot.

Xposed v79 and MMS issue

installed Xposed v79 and Gravitybox and was unable to send/receive mms on at&t. removed xposed...issue gone. anyone else experience this or have a solution...i really miss gravitybox.
i have xposed 79 and gravity box and can send/receive MMS fine on sprint
T-Mobile with same setup. MMS works.
I have Xposed 79 SDK23 - arm 64 and I'm able to send and receive mms and I'm on AT&T
---------- Post added at 08:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:49 PM ----------
Make sure you have the right Xposed installed.
I wonder what the issue is then... i can tell if it's going to happen when the phone starts up. if everything is good i'll get an AT&T in the notification bar immediately on reboot...if there's an issue i will get something like "No SIM Emergency calls only" but then it picks up the sim and i have service within 10 seconds or so. SIM issue?

I read in some other thread (sorry, I don't recall where) that someone had the same issue and it seems to be due to some setting in Gravity Box, disable it and give it a try.

Galaxy S8 Call interruptions

I bought a new S8 in Greece, and in the first two 24 hours I had it, my interlocutors on the phone were complaining that during our call sometimes they could not hear me.
I went back to the store and the employee told me that he was aware of the problem (interruptions during calls) and that this even happened in his own S8. He said there was an issue because the device was from another EU country (mine was from Italy) and when it makes the OTA update something is happening. So they sent it to Samsung and after 1 week I got it back. They have made a ROM update.
I'm starting to setup it again, and in the beginning I am receiving a message that a SIM change was detected and I had the option of either continuing or resetting in the factory settings. I chose the 2nd (probably this was a mistake - I'm not sure if I actually "canceled" the update made by Samsung).
The point is that the problem has remained. I went back to the shop and they suggested to fully refund me, which I accepted.
I go to another shop and buy a new S8 device. I put SIM while being on the store, again the same problem! We test the employee's SIM, and it seems that in the call I have made, it worked ok.
So I believed it was my SIM that had a problem. I replace it, the problem continues. I am choosing a fixed type of network (eg 2G) and not automatic switching (3G / 4G etc) and the problem is somehow better, although again the interlocutors complain to me that they lose me while we speak.
I'm calling to an Authorized Samsung Service. They tell me they know the issue and that there has been a formal instruction from Samsung which says that a specific version of ROM needs to be installed to solve it.
Has this problem happened to anyone else?

Different carrier.
Well in Cyprus we had the same issue with call interruption but all seemed fixed on July`s update. Call was interrupted no voice or sound could get through the phone and a restart was nessescary to solve the issue. Is the phone updated to the latest firmware?

Everytime I reproduced the problem wifi signal was the issue. So maybe that wifi hd call was or is the issue. Could be wrong though about your issue

Hi, thanks for the reply.
Yes the phone is updated to the latest firmware. It seems to me that it's not exactly the same problem since although during voice calls the others tell me that they hear me with some interruptions, after the call the device operates normally (all sounds) and there is no need to restart...
I don't also think it is related somehow with the WiFi and in my device there was no option at all to enable wifi HD call...

Can no longer get LTE after touching the Network Mode setting

For unknown reason, I can no longer get LTE after touching the Network Mode setting. The default mode on my G6 is "Global", and when I tried changing it to "LTE/GSM/UMTS" it surprisingly switched to 4G. So I changed it back to Global to get the LTE back, but it did not work. I tried switching the data On and Off, restarted the phone (several times), switching to Airplane mode and back. None of the above helped.
After searching the net and finding no answer, I decided to call AT&T tech support to see if it's just something that got messed up on their end. The person told me to delete the default APN and guided me to create a new one and restart the phone. I was also asked to give the IMEI of the phone (probably because it's a carrier-free version). None helped to fix the issue.
The only things I can think of now to possibly resolve this is to reset the phone and even get a new SIM card. But before trying these drastic actions and losing several hours of backup/restoration/setup/tweaks, I wanted to get some expert advise from you guys.
I'm using the US997 model (boot loader still locked).
The reason I tried messing up with the Network Mode is because I've read from somewhere that the Global mode tends to drain more battery.
Thank you all in advance.

This was a long time ago but did you ever resolve this issue? I think I'm having the same issue except I can only get 3G.
