Good morning,
The more I dig, the more i'm puzzled.
I do own an axon A2017G, with the last nightly LOS
Two of my relatives have both a samsung phone (A5 2017 and S7)
When they want to make a video call, they just choose an option "video call" in contacts, and that's it.
They don't launch a specific app for that (unless it's hidden???).
- I don't have this option in my contacts app
- I can't receive video calls from my relatives.
Is it really "volte" related or something else?
I've checked with *#*#4636#*#* and volte options are greyed.
thanks.

VoLTE is Voice over LTE so I'm pretty sure it's not related
Video calls are a feature of Whatsapp, and usually those options appear below the phone number on the contact. Maybe it is that?
I've checked the A5 2017, there is no whatsapp installed. The video call option is just built in. In the contacts you tap an option to place a video call, and that's it.

Hi
Can anyone suggest good CALL History / Register application.
In the wizard in the calll history it lists all the incoming/outgoing/missed/all calls on one page , rather than proving TAB version for each.
does any one of any free apps..
regards
You can view the calls by incoming / outgoing / missed / user by using the menu > filter option in call history.
Not quite what you were after, but I am not sure if you had seen the filter option before.
Is there anyway to get the recent call list to display the telephone number and number of calls from tht number on the side rather than list every single time of call from tht particular number.
It's quite irritating... when i'm in a meeting there are times when i'll recieve like 10 missed calls from one single number and it's quite painful to browse thru soo many calls.
Hi
You are right , there is a filter option , buy I would rather prefer a tab option
without going into Menu->Filter , I have a Sony Eric Phone and I got addicted with that interface and quite like it.
So may be just asked the Q in the forum.
Hi guys, I've just moved over from iphone so still finding my feet with android.
For the most part android is far superior but the contact side of things is still bugging me. This is what I want to be able to do:
1. Have my call log as calls only, not texts. I know you can change this to view calls received, dialled etc, but it soons defaults back and shows everything. I just want my log to have dialled and received and nothing else? I'm sure i've read somewhere on the net that this was possible on the SGS through a hack??
2. I want to set up a favourites list of say best mate, gf, work etc and just be able to press their name and it dials there number, not opens another window that shows history, text option, dial option video call option, i.e. just direct dial. I also would like this to be the first screen that opens when I press my phone icon on the dock??
I've set my gf up on my desktop as a direct dial shortcut, but I don't want to be doing that for everyone. I've got a load of contacts but maybe only dial 10 at most on a regular basis.
are there any hacks or thrid party dialers that do this??
Cheers
Lee

I can help you with #2. Just swipe right on your favorite and you call that favorite immediately. Swipe left to immediately send a message.

hmmm, can't say i can see a way around No.1, other than using a new dialer/contacts app such as Go Contacts or Dialer One etc..
must say, i actually quite like the comprehensive log, coming from Sense and Stock roms with calls only, i like having it all in one place...
Dialer One would be my choice, but only as i used it on CM7 on my Hero for its smart dial feature... can't comment on Go Contacts
hope this helps
Dickie
I use loads off texts a day so within 10 mins of dialling someone their details are long gone
I'll check out Go Contacts and Dialer One though, thanks for the recommendations
This is a Samsung thing, regular android does not put texts with the call log. I don't think I'd like them to be combined like that.
it is the right thing to do

I like them combined. There again, there could be an option to control it.
Go Contacts is just the ticket
Thanks guys, much better now
I read about some features AT&T now has such as advanced messaging (able to send large files, see status of received/read of messages), HD calls (voice over LTE or something?) and video calls via phone app.
The only thing I see is video calls.
Where are these other features?
I can confirm HD voice works with video call. I'm not certain about advanced messages though
Not supported on this device. https://www.att.com/shop/wireless/features/advanced-messaging.html
weird... why on earth they don't support it on the newest phone they have if they want to push it? lol
Hi,
I have all contacts with image. While I call a person and receive a call from a person the call ui is not displaying the caller image. Is there any workaround?
Use Google dialer instead of the default phone app in the device
The Google dialer app doesn't show proper call logs, it shows dialed and received calls as missed calls when you use Jio for calls.
In mi A1 full screen caller ID is not coming instead it is coming in the form of small circle is there any way any option
Same problem
Just can't believe... In the end of 2017 without call photo id?! But maybe in the future updates that will be fixed. I'm understanding, that it's pure Android, but this is not branding option.
any news to solve this issue?
Nope. Google Phone is not compatible.
Just install google phone bubble edition from xda
Phone bubble edition didn't help me.
Is there another good dialer?
Search for Google_Phone_11.0.164102751__Bubble___Patched_ and disable stock phone apk. You must also install google contacts and disable stock contacts. Works perfectly for me.
Works fine, Thanks !

Heres the link . Worked for me , will work for everyone .

How do you get to the SIP settings on this phone?
Any ideas?
Still the same problem with Android 8 -.-
I had this option on all Android phones so far. This phone is missing that. How is this stock Android?
Attached screenshot from A1 and Note 3
Same problem here. All my previous phones had this setting but this one has not.
Does it have something to do with dual sim?

No. Xiaomi removed that feature for some reason.
I've found a solution about a month ago, it works well.
install QuickShortcutMaker
click on "Ricerca incrementale" and select "Ricerca normale" (based on the Italian version of the app)
search "sip"
click on "sip settings" and next on the button "Provare" (maybe "Try" in english)
click on the button + on the top, configure your SIP account
uninstall QuickShortcutMaker

Works fine to add new SIP accounts but Xiaomi has removed other things such as choosing which account to use to make the call (works only with SIM accounts): a workaround is to duplicate an existing contact with only sip telephony.
I can not make call reception work. Any ideas?
I have the same problem, and I wonder if should I install another Phone apk that supports SIP.VOIP, and I wonder which apk?

On Oreo 8.1 August 2018 receiving SIP calls works fine for me.
My providers are sonetel and sipgate.
On the Xiaomi Mi A1 it is not possible to configure VOIP / SIP as described:
https://support.google.com/phoneapp/answer/2811843?hl=en
With the help of external tools I was able to set up a VOIP account in the A1
and got it to log into a SIP VOIP service provider.
-Install Activity Launcher from play store.
-Open the app and hit All activites from the drop down.
-Scroll down to Phone Services and open it
-Scroll down to SIP Settings open it
-This opens the settings dialog in which you add an account.
-Open the regular Phone Dialer and open Settings/Calling Accounts.
-Open All calling accounts and enable the account you added earlier.
Let me know if it works for you.

I did it exactly that way: no way to make incoming calls work.
When I enable the account previously added to "Calling Accounts" (Dialer / Settings), the account name is displayed twice while in "SIP Settings" it is written that call reception is not active.
My provider is local (account is created from a FritzBox) and i've Oreo 8.1 with August 2018 patch. (EDIT: my phone is not rooted.)
Thank you anyway

Unrooted phone here as well.
I get double listings as well - as I use 2 incoming accounts, the list shows 4 entries.
(Have you enabled the accounts by hitting "All calling accounts" and then set the respective switch on?)
It seems weird to me that you can't receive calls, as in SIP accounts both my accounts show the notification "Receiving calls".
And of course incoming calls ring fine.
I use these SIP accounts to receive incoming calls to int'l numbers both through my fritz!box 7490 as well as to my mobile when away from home.
Sonetel provides free trial accounts I think. Perhaps you try that.
Good luck!

There's an app "Galaxy SIP accounts" which helped me to enable outgoing SIP calls:
It makes my A1 stock dialer to ask whether to place a call through an inserted SIM or through a SIP account.
In other words: SIP incoming and outgoing calls can be enabled on the A1 without going through a 3rd party app.
So Xiaomi - why do you hide the stock settings menus???
After October security patches, dialing out even works better.
Before the latest update, the outgoing number had to be selected twice.
Now dial-out selection is like it should:
Thank you
