I have a Note 3 dual SIM imported from China, that I use on Europe 3G.
I tried the service menu, but is not working on Android 4.3 like in the previous versions.
Do you know how to enable HD Voice?
Thank you!
I am on Android 7.0. See software specs in attached screenshot. Three UK turned on wifi called end of January. My phone is unlocked and bought from Samsung. I don't seem to have the WiFi calling option. I have already checked that you don't need a phone bought from three, it will work with any s7 Edge.
Anyone have wifi calling working with any network on a non carrier phone? I don't see any options for it anywhere either.
Launch the phone app (I.e. The green phone icon), tap the settings option on the top right. For me it's an option just under vibrate.
I'm on EE with a phone that came direct from Samsung.

You should see what CSC/PDA the stock Three UK S7 Edge comes with, I think it is this one https://samsung-firmware.org/download/Galaxy S7/81c4/HTS/G930FXXU1DQB7/G930FHTS1DQA4/ but you should confirm. Then flash it with Odin. It won't trip Knox or anything. You can find out how to do that here on XDA.

I did confirm with three today and have found it elsewhere on the Internet that it doesn't need three own branded firmware. So I don't really want to install it. I was part of the 7.0 beta, I wonder if that has caused issues.
Yes I'm on the same build version. I was also on the 7 beta and the only difficulty I had was locating the WiFi calling option as it used to be located through the main settings.
Do you have to opt in for WiFi calling on Three? I think I may have with EE.

On the three website it says you just sneed a Compatible phone and the latest update. That's it. I also spoke to three who Confirmed this and then went on to say I should Contact Samsung......
Any joy with three wi fi calling s7 edge
I have updated my unlocked s7 edge as suggested by three, but no wi fi calling available, I have to walk to end of road on holiday cottage could do with a fix. Three in touch no longer works either. Did you get a solution from Samsung?
Wi-Fi Calling works only on H3G Firmware
After few nights of flashing various CSC ROMs, I can confirm that Wi-Fi calling and HD Calling on Three UK appears on H3G firmware only and it works like it should.
Here are few notes after flashing:
XEU - No Wi-Fi calling option, VoLTE icon intermittent, dropping calls after few min if started calling on 4G, keeps switching back to 3G to initiate a voice call.
BTU - No Wi-Fi Calling option, VoLTE icon appears and seems OK when calling over 4G, however no HD voice.
H3G - Wi-Fi Calling option appears in Call Settings and it works! However no VoLTE icon but for sure it makes voice calls over 4G as it initiate a voice call much faster and the radio doesn't switch back to 3G, also the HD icon appears when making a phone call to compatible service number or another phone which supports HD voice - call is sharp crystal clear like on Skype or Messenger etc.
Conclusion: To get all stuff enabled Wi-Fi Calling + VoLTE + HD Voice you need to get your phone directly from Three or flash H3G firmware to your current phone.
H3G firmware luckily hasn't got too much of a bloatware, it can be easily uninstalled or disabled :laugh:
Please hit thumbs up for me :good:

I found exactly the same when I tested roms, you need the network rom to get wificalling.
I know this is an old thread but still relevant today.
I found pretty much the same thing. WiFi Calling and VoLTE on EE needs the EVR firmware (but I think it may work on BTU as well with Android 8)
3 does require the HG3 firmware
Without the correct match of firmware the option to enable WFC does not appear in phone/settings.
Others like O2 and Voda probably require their own firmware as well.
But what is really weird is if you get for example, an iPhone 6S and put a 3 card in it...WFC just works and the same with EE. No special firmware. Maybe Apple know something we don't
Do you see the WiFI Calling option in Phone Settings with Three / H3G UK firmware on a phone that works with WiFi calling? I can't see any reference to that option on the Three help pages. If so, any chance of a screenshot?
Thanks
I am in similar situation with S7 Edge which currently doesn't have an option for wifi calling. I moved from O2 to Three recently. O2 wifi calling worked and the option was there. It doesn't have the option on Three.
Does anybody know which firmware to flash which will enable this option? I've downloaded both the BTU version and H3G version for the UK. Can anyone please confirm if either of these will enable wifi calling option?
Many Thanks.

I think you have a better chance with the Three firmware, but AFAIK, the issue is that Android phones are coded to a carrier. This doesn't seem to matter with VOLTE but for some reason VOWiFi is an issue. If anyone knows how to get around this, I'd be happy to know too.

Thanks for the reply. I thought the Three firmware would be better but I was hoping someone has tried this and actually got it working. Seems odd that the phones sold direct by Three have this by default but it seems almost impossible to enable if the phone was bought elsewhere. That's why I'm wondering if the H3G firmware I found on Sammobile.com has the feature or not.

Some posts earlier in this thread say they have WiFi calling working after flashing the Three firmware. This does not work on my LG G5, but you may be luckier with a Samsung phone.

I have a couple of Samsung Galaxy S7 edge duos dual-SIM phones in which I have SIMs from different network operators or MVNOs. One is usually a Three PAYG SIM and the other is a Virgin Mobile (now VMO2) contract SIM or other MVNO PAYG SIM.
I am in a poor signal area for all of the networks despite being in a built-up urban area of Aylesbury. I currently rely on a Home Signal unit from Three to cover that network but would prefer to use Wi-Fi Calling for all networks.
What do I do about the secondary network?
Which ROM firmware should I be using?
Why doesn't all firmware enable Wi-Fi Calling and VoLTE for any network?
Ofcom have banned phones being locked to a network from December 2021 but the ban does not seem to cover these issues which are tantamount to locking a device to a network.
Ofcom needs to address these issues before the end of 2021 when some networks will have withdrawn support for their Home Signal type equipment and even 3G fallback for voice calls in 4G/5G coverage areas.
My mobile provider (O2 Germany) used to have a special app that allowed WiFi calling on their network. It had its limitations, but it worked. They have now discontinued that service and state you can use WiFi Calling, instead.
Although I did find a WiFi Calling On/Off switch (Settings/Search/Wi-Fi Calling), I could switch it on and nothing else would happen. If you went back to that switch, it was switched off again.
I read on the O2 forum that Wi-Fi Native Calling requires at least a Snapdragon 805 and the Yotophone 2 has a Snapdragon 800.
Is there any way of using Wi-fi Native Calling on the Yotaphone 2 - perhaps with a special App?

I face the same problem, here in Greece.
I hope someone will answer.
Does Huawei p10 lite has voLTE aka voice LTE , voice HD, calls 4G?
If it has, how do I enable it?
Does it work with Vodafone carriers?
Volte needs to be enabled by your carrier. If you have the Vodafone software on your device (C02), then there is no way to enable or disable it, since it's always on, and is apparently built in to the software.
Hi,

Depending of your Provider. In France "Orange" don't have Nothing Phone 1 in their compatibility list, so when you plus Orange SIM first 24 hours Phone working fine with VoLTE/WiFi but because he's not in their list they remove this service from their servers.. (idiot...) but Nothing Phone 1 is natively compatible with VoLTE/WiFi. Other provider Free, SFR, Bouygues are fully compatible.
Have you option 4G Calling and Wifi Calling in :
Network & Internet > SIMs > SIMs (choose sim) > Calling "option" =
- 4G Calling
- Wi-Fi Calling
I'm now SFR provider and i have VoLTE/WiFi working perfectly
PS : i can't keep a phone without VoLTE/WiFi

On Nothing Phone 1 VoLTE is just little "HD" text near Signal bar.
When you have make a call, You data a 4G+ switch on 3G or stay on 4G ?

HD itself means, VoLTE.
That was a thing of past when there used to be persistent notification about VoLTE being activated.
So you can be rest assured presence of HD over your network bar, indicates VoLTE working fine
