I just switched from AT&T to Ting to save money and take advantage of wifi calling. Unfortunately my current ROM (Omni) won't let me enable WiFi calling. Searching has led me to understand that it's not available on CM/Lineage 14.1 ROMs.
Does anyone know of a 7.1.x ROM that will allow wifi calling? I would rather not go back to OOS if I can avoid it.

I know wifi calling is supposed to be built into Marshmallow and on some devices it's allowing wifi calling to work on T-Mobile. Does anyone know if this is working on the Nexus 4 with any of the current Marshmallow ROMs?
I want to know this too
I recently upgraded from Marshmallow to N (7.0.0), and cannot see the WiFi Calling settings at all in Settings>More under Wireless & Networks. I see Airplane mode, NFC, Android Beam, Tethering & portable hotspot, VPN, and Cellular networks, in that order. I am on a rooted stock rom. Has anyone else experienced this? For the record, I was not able to see this feature on Marshmallow either, and upgraded to see if it would become available for me on N.
it's in the phone>settings>calls
Thank you so much - this is now working for me on 7.0.0
Does this setting auto hide if the carrier doesn't support it? I'm on GoPhone and I don't see that.
Is there an ADB command to get this enabled on the 6P? The carrier has told me they are only covering some but not all handsets and have said that the WiFi calling feature has been turned on in my account but its not showing up on the phone under calls? Is there a command line to make this appear?
I am having the same problem. It is hidden in my handset, whereas before nougat it was there, even though technically my device isn't supported. Can adb help? Thanks.
Hello,
I'm on the G935F, rooted, and digging the performance and options with the root.
Is there any way to get wifi calling enabled? Maybe the updated modem settings for T-Mobile? I have previously been on iPhone and remember there were IPCC settings you could side-load ... are similar files/settings available for T-Mobile?
I'm posting because I DO notice that service is not quite as good as on the G935T... and also miss the wifi calling.
Thanks,

I have an unlocked Galaxy S7 Edge (SM-G935U). My carrier is Total Wireless (Verizon MVNO). I recently got a new office at work, and the Verizon coverage in this part of the building is terrible. I use wifi for data but cellular calling basically doesn't work at all.
I've been looking at other networks, and I'm leaning toward T-Mobile or MetroPCS, one of the reasons being they have wifi calling and the wifi at my office is plenty fast. I checked in settings to see the wifi calling option, but when I go to settings > connections > more connection settings, which is where the wifi calling setting is supposed to be, there's nothing about wifi calling.
I had a thought that maybe the wifi calling option isn't there because my current carrier doesn't support wifi calling, so I contacted Samsung support. I asked if I get a SIM from a carrier that supports wifi calling, would the wifi calling option be enabled. They said that unlocked phones don't support wifi calling at all.
This confuses me, because this thread mentions some people were able to use T-Mobile wifi calling on an unlocked S7/S7Edge. But that thread is older, so maybe for some reason wifi calling was removed from the unlocked S7 Edge with the Nougat update?
I suppose the only way to find out for sure is to get a T-Mobile or MetroPCS SIM and see what happens. But is anyone able to shed some light on if this is even worth trying? I suppose it's also worth trying out just to see if regular cellular calling on T-Mobile might be fine at my new desk, but hopefully there's some way to do wifi calling.
Unfortunately I think you need the sm-g935f to get t mobile wifi calling. Don't think it was ever achieved on the U models
I had an s7 edge from T-Mobile (SM-G935T) but I flashed the unlocked firmware essentially making it a SM-G935U and I had VoLTE and Wifi calling working with no issues. It was about a month ago, so it was on Nougat. I would expect no issues with an actual SM-G935U on T-Mobile.
Well, I answered my own question. I switched over to the T-Mobile 10 GB $50/month prepaid plan and when I changed SIMs the phone gave me a "reconfiguring your device for new SIM card" message. Wifi calling is now active.
Also, this is a list of phones that support T-Mobile wifi calling. I probably should've checked here first.

As the title says, does anyone here have an H910+Lineage on AT&T's network verified that it is doing VoLTE, and not only voice over UMTS?
I ask because AT&T says they are killing their 3G network in 01/2022, which means any phone that isn't VoLTE capable on their network will lose the ability to place calls (non-VOIP calls). Evidently my H918 running LOS isn't capable of doing VoLTE on AT&T's network, and I REALLY, REALLY don't want to give up using a V20. So, if the H910 does VoLTE running Lineage on AT&T's network, I'll buy a new H910.
I am very, very interested in getting this question definitively answered one way or the other.
None of any custom ROMs would support VoLTE, it's proprietary.
100% no VOLTE on AT&T if you are using Lineage. You have to use the stock-based rom for it to work.
Even with a stock ROM on my h910A, I still don't think I was able to get VOLTE working... not sure why.

Hi guys,
I owned H990DS Sea version on latest nougat. It has volte option but just couldn't switch on without the proper carrier configuration file
Please take a look at this thread on LG G8
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ther-qualcomm-powered-lg-devices-too.4343655/
I tried on my H990DS using the above thread's method and it didn't work. I was informed that the mbn files are for LG G8. We need mbn files that are specific for LG V20. I have searched up and down and I couldn't find any.
So I hope that I have provided some insights and I hope any member/master/guru out there can help where to find the mbn file (collection of all international carriers mbn) and make volte works for H990DS and maybe for other V20 variants too.
the phone has to recognize the network and turn on volte
i have a phone that support volte, and i'm sure the network supports volte, but my phone doesn't use volte on this network because this phone is not natively available here so their support doesn't give a ****

Yes, same for me too. My V20 has 4G+/LTE+ signal but no volte. Whenever I make a call, the signal drop to 2G (since 3G has shut down) and would take, at least 5 seconds to connect. Looks like I am re-living the good old 90's era of using 2G voice quality to make call....
I am still finding the way to activate the volte on this phone but so far looks like dead end...
