No VoLTE takers for i9505? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been looking for a custom ROM with VoLTE enabled but quite disapponited that no dev could present one. LOS apparently have not even thought about introducing VoLTE on i9505 LTE international version though I myself could manage to get VoLTE working - that is for the only VoLTE provider at present in India namely Jio - via stock ROM after experimenting with the method described by @dhiru1602 on this forum but never found anything else. With LOS the VoLTE provisioned flag is not even enabled and so none of LOS based ROMs could provide a way for VoLTE.
One can find my alternate method which I used to modify a stock ROM for VoLTE at the link below. I have been using it since the day I posted it without any problem.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/general/volte-i9505-international-jio-easy-t3657679 using sammobile website for the stock FW and YouTube for necessary firmware and files.
I am more than sure some dev will take it up to provide a solution. Will highly be appreciated and a BIG thanks in advance. Hope to see a FW soon.

How to make Volte work on Samsung S7 edge (Sprint) for Reliance Jio

Hi,
I am totally a newbie to Android, just moved from IOS, so please bear with me.
I am trying to make Reliance Jio sim work on my Samsung S7 edge (Sprint). Data is working just fine through Reliance jio sim on my mobile. But I am not able to activate Volte on mobile, so calls are not getting through. The Volte turn on/off tab is missing. I searched on the internet and found out that Sprint's network does not support Volte, so they have disabled the tab for it.
My model is SM-G635P
What is the best way out?? Do i have to root my phone??
Thanks in advance.
I am not aware if this will work with Sprint, Carrier locked versions are a little different, plus its Snap Dragon but this is what i did.. You need to change the CSC usually but yours being a sprint one, there will be some modifications for sure , I am pretty sure you wont have an INS CSC in your phone, so you might have to change to a stock US or UK one or maybe T Mobile. I would wait for an expert to tell you that for sure
This is for Reliance JIO Users - You dont need to flash your ROM, you can change your firmware to INS CSC and it works.
1) i used the Phone Info App (Download from the Google Play Store) and saw what CSC Codes were available for me to change to.
2) I downloaded a new firmware from Sam Mobile - You can google for them entering your model no - G-935fD, i am not sure if they are available here in XDA as well
3) My phone supported India CSC (You can see supported CSC's using the Phone Info App so i downloaded the India one it could be different for others.
4) I then downloaded ODIN and used the tuorial in this forum to flash my phone and change the CSC code.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SK3IMprKVQ this is the link with a step to step guide.
5) After that i factory reset my phone and downloaded the July Update Patch.
My phone after that has been able to make calls and i can see the VOLTE symbol, depending on the firmware it should either automatically come or you might have to manually enable it.
Hope this helps everyone else also. Factory reset usually helps and downloading the latest update too..
The method above will not work with Sprint Phones. Attempting it may brick your phone.
Activating VoLTE will mostly require some work at the root level. Hope someone who has knowledge about it can help you.

Volte rom for samsung s4 i9505

friends any stable Rom with Volte suppoet for Samsung S4 i9505 for india jio..
There are none, because the I9505 doesn't have LTE band 40, which Jio requires for VOLTE. The I9505 only has bands 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, and 20, so you're stuck using the Jio app.
Not necessarily. Take a look at the general section where I have oulined how to get Jio working on i9505. I have been using it for the last 20 odd days without any issue. And last week I have given the unit to somone who travels more than me to check and it has been used on a daily basis without any issue.
However no reply has been posted to my thread so I do not know if anyone tried or not. I assume the population of i9505 in India is very low besides users may have moved to other phones as well.
It is basically use of different stock, root and apply VoLTE fix.
Forgot to mention that the unit in use is based on Qualcomm processor.
The presence of a user-made patch does not mean a ROM with VOLTE support exists. The OP asked for a ROM, and there is none.

Sorry for my belated post The answer to ROM with VoLTE is an "Yes" and a "No". Please refer to
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/i9505-develop/rom-stock-rom-volte-support-jio-t3578337
I may have jumped on the term "Jio" as it was more related to the actual use than a real VoLTE ROM. Regret inconvenience caused by posting a patch work info or method.

Your not getting any help because you posted in development section. Had you posted in Q&A someone probably would have told you what you want isn't possible.

I stand corrected, this was not possible when the original U firm was released.

Hi, I am currently trying to find a way to enable VoLTE and wifi calling/text on my unlocked S7 Active. This issue is that this phone is exclusive to AT&T and I'm using it on T-Mobile. I stumbled across this thread and saw that you had success with this and the unlocked S7 Edge. Would the methods you used also work for the unlocked S7 Active running on Tmo?
Apologies if I'm in the wrong area of the site. I'm a complete noob to thIs community and the rooting process itself. I have made one post so far asking some questions regarding this topic over in the S7 Active root section. Received a very kind and thorough response (still need to follow up and thank him!)
He did say there are ways to enable VoLTE, but I'd have to research the topic to figure it out. And that's how I ended up here
Thanks so much. Very grateful for any insight.

Thank you guys so much for the direction! I checked out both links. The last one (17-18 pages) looks quite useful, but just after reading the first page, it's very clear that I need to start from the beginning. It was like trying to read a foreign language.
It would probably be safer for me to try to find a beginner's intro to rooting and basic tutorial first.
Hey, you guys should set up a mentor program! I know I would gladly fork over a reasonable donation for some one-on-one schooling
Edit: I have bookmarked the advised links too. Will be returning to them as I become more versed in all this.

After Nougat update with Polish PLAY operator no International roaming

Hi guys,
I (we) desperately need help. Myself and a number of other Moto X Style are crying out loud for help on getting our roaming issue fixed. Long story short:
I have a Motorola X Style (all original, no mods), after the upgrade to Nougat International roaming stopped working (it was working on 6.0). Or better, international roaming does not work with a SIM from a Polish operator named PLAY. Funny enough the same SIM in another phone roams internationally fine and a SIM from another operator in the Moto X roams fine too. It seems to be a sick combination of Moto X Android 7.0 and PLAY. I (we) have tried everything, theres a thread on the official Motorola forum if you dare to read ( I cannot post the link because I'm new, but a search for "Moto X Roaming not working Polish Play" will give you a link). And when I say everything I really mean it... Starting from Clear the Cache to Factory Reset, and the obvious/trivial things too like "enable data while roaming" etc... According to the PLAY provider all is OK on their side and Motorola is ignoring the issue... Its 8 months that their "engineers" are allegedly looking into it, and that it will be "hopefully resolved in future updates" .... yeahhh believe it... Solution from Motorola: "send the phone in for a downgrade to 6.0". Many of us, me included, are locked into a # of years contract with PLAY so it is not that easy to dump the operator and go with someone else. That's why someone with a real deep knowledge on how this stuff work is needed. The last thing to add is that PLAY operator is one of the few that uses national roaming too to fill in the gaps on their national coverage, needless to say that national roaming works fine.
Any help will be really appreciated ... best regards Fulvio.
There's not much we can do about it. Editing the stock modem is nearly impossible.
Best you can do right now is flash Nougat Custom ROMs that are based on Marshmallow modem (Official LineageOS), In this way you'll get the Nougat features on Marshmallow base.
or.. try flashing other variants nougat modem RETUS, RETLA (this is not recommended and has a high risk)

RetLA & RetUS will not work in Europe, RetAsia has the same baseband.
I think @fulvy70 has locked bootloader so he can't flash anythng.

Yes of course he has to unlock first and if the device is out of warranty, I don't see any harm in doing it.
Me to.
Someone here uses MM when he's on travels and Nougat at home.
Because...
Delta app doesn't work good on Nougat.
Hi,
Thank you for your answers... I understand that you are all pinpointing the issue in the Modem/Radio Firmware, not the Android OS itself ... this is already a step forward... I understand the risks connected with flashing a different Modem/Radio FW but anyhow is something to know ... I believe it is also something to consider if eventually any custom ROM will be compatible with the new modems/radios ... at that point even changing the ROM to custom will not solve the issue I believe...
Regards Fulvio.
Flashing custom rom doesn't change the modem/radio/baseband.
I don't know where is problem - only Play(Poland) doesn't support LTE roaming.
You can flash any custom for N modem and check it. @fulvy70

Add VOLTE Support For UAE 4G LTE Phone ?

Hi,
I own a Samsung Galaxy J5 Pro 2017, Model SM-J530F, which I bought from UAE. The specs on the box shows it as a 4G LTE device. I am quite confirm it does not have VOLTE in the settings. Now that I am using it in INDIA with Reliance JIo services, I badly need VOLTE functionality on this phone to make it possible to make & receive calls. Is there any way to add VOLTE functionality to it ? Any solutions from our developers ? Please don't ask for flashing a custom rom!
Thanks in advance!
( Though I can install JioCare app & use it but the app is not available on Wifi, works only on Jio LTE ( Jio Mobile Data ) & forces to keep the wifi turned off permanently for the functionality. Actually Jio provides 4G VOLTE only connection & it is not backward compatible with a 4G LTE only device. For that Jio uses VOLTE layer from within their JioCare app to support a 4G LTE device )
This phone is still quite smart! Please help!
Looking into your device model, it seems like there was no India release. In situations like this I would recommend flashing the INS version of stock firmware but since it doesn't exist for this model, I honestly think your only option is to root and edit the CSC features file yourself which can be annoying and quite honestly very long process.
You could also attempt to just flash another region and hope that it has VoLTE included. I don't know if this would even work though.

Thanks for the quick response! I really appreciate it but I was just thinking if there is any other way ? Jio uses VOLTE layer from within their JioCare app!
Hi,
If I understand it right, I have to use CSC file & not the HOME_CSC file to see any changes that I desire, right ?
Thanks in advance!
