It shows HD voice when you make or receive calls on your phone app screen if your carrier support it.

Sprint supports HD voice, but does NOT support VoLTE... The option to is in the setting to turn on VoLTE "volte preferred" but as soon as you exit the menu and return it is off again.

On T-Mobile while on call, it shows HD on the call summary screen.

I'm on Bell in Canada. Volte is working but on a lot of calls, I can hear the called but they can't hear me. I can't even turn off volte. Even tho I have it checked off in network settings, calls are still in volte. How to get it to stay off?

Wi-Fi calling

I spent a hour with support on enabling Wi-Fi calling. I set it all up but all I get is a star next to my Wi-Fi signal and no ATT-wifi calling icon in the left top notification area. Any ideas?
At&t is going to call me back Wednesday as I said i would troubleshoot it further. I have reset network settings, resetup Wi-Fi calling and reset my phone

At&t support WiFi calling only if your signal is lower then two bars. If you have plus ( star) sign next to your WiFi that mean your WiFi calling is working. To check this turn airplane mode and connect to WiFi and try to make call. There is no WiFi icon on left side at all.

I will give it a try. I Usually only have one bar. I took my note 5 back because it wouldn't work with my microcell I fought with them for 5 months about it I finally took it back .

Airplane mode disables all radios. That's not possible
Yes it IS possible, after setting airplane mode to ON, go up and turn the WiFi back to ON.

I didn't personally have any issues... although it would not activate for the first few hours I had my phone. But I had never used wifi calling before, and why i didn't think of your method of testing it, I don't know. But thanks for the advice.
If I keep the WiFi calling enabled, will it reduce my battery life? By keeping a constant connection or something? I guess I have more than 2 bars for most part of my home.

I can't imagine that it would. Unless you normally turn WiFi off when your not using it. WiFi calling will automatically toggle wifi on and search for a signal. If you just leave wifi on all the time, I can't imagine the wifi calling portion changing you battery life any.

Not just for testing. That method (turn on Airplane Mode, then re-enable WiFi) can be used to force WiFi-calling (instead of using your voice minutes) even if you have a strong connection to your mobile network.
I was having this same issue and by switching to the Sim card that came in the box rather than my old one fixed the problem for me.

That is the correct behavior... if you dial *#*#4636#*#* and go to Phone info and scroll down, is your "Set preferred network type" set to "LTE/GSM/CDMA auto (PRL)"?

Reboot into Safe Mode and try it... Press the power button until the Power Offn button appears, then long press the Power Off button and in the "Reboot to safe mode" screen, select OK. Once it is rebooted into safe mode, test again.
Are you stock, rooted, or running a custom rom?

Hmm... Odd... I haven't heard of this issue on the X. Any chance of trying with another SIM, say borrow one from a friend long enough to test, or getting a replacement?
Otherwise, factory reset and test again.

I already done that the factory reset do not work, and if I change the sim to my old celphone (moto X 1) works perfecto, when I use a sim fom Telcel ( another service provider) the phone works normal, its weird because should be the same Ting, the only diference that I see is that the signal bar change from LTE to 4G (I touthg that was the same) with the Telcel provider.

The Style will show 4G instead of LTE... It's normal I believe. You can verify with LTE Discovery or Network Signal Info app, but I don't think it's relevant. Sorry, but I'm running out of ideas.
What version Android, firmware, and radios (Build number and baseband info)?

I think that there is all the information that you ask if not, let me know. And thank you So much for your time
I ran into a problem where I couldn't connect to the voice network but data worked, and I discovered that I had accidentally flashed the US modem firmware when I changed ROMs. This probably isn't the case here, as its fully stock, but I think it's worth mentioning. Go to Settings->About Phone->Status->SIM Status and make sure that both voice and data are labeled "In Service".
Ok might need expansion of problem explanation, but here's the deal.....
If getting LTE on and off call, that's true LTE your carrier is supporting.
If getting LTE when not on call and H+ while on a call, then your carrier does not have VoLTE enabled and this is normal. H+ should be plenty fast.
However, if you are getting LTE while not on call but 3G/UMTS/CDMA1900/EVDO/edge/etc(2-3g), then the same rule as above applies, only difference this time is the tower you're connected to does not support H+ or your phone does not support your carrier's H+ frequency.
Who is your carrier?

Oreo - VoLTE - Enhanced 4G LTE Mode gone

Hi there.
since the officiel oreo update I have no more VoLTE (HD) capabilities and the setting option is gone. The search finds it but when I select "Enhanced 4G LTE Mode" from the search I get to the cellular network settings where I do not see this option. Any Ideas?

Maybe be they disabled some of the frequency bands which your network is using.
I also need this Option back, my provider doesn't support SMS on Enhanced 4G LTE Mode. So I have to manually switch back to 3G to receive a planned SMS and then back to 4G... Is there a way to somehow unhide this option, because it looks like it is available in the settings when you search for it, but if you click on it you only end up on the mobile network page.
I have this option.

Don't see this option anymore. Maybe my carrier does no longer support VoLTE on my MIA1 or the oreo update broke the support. Anyone out there in Germany with a VoLTE enabled plan where VoLTE still works on this device?

Me not, and I also don't see any HD Icon on the status bar. Can only say that SMS was working before when I switched off the Enhanced LTE stuff and now it's not working anymore.

hi, it happened also in Indonesia, my HD logo dissapear, now I cannot use sms or data call without volte apps.
tried to re-flash 7.8.23 still the same, seems IMS has been blocked.
For me to... In Network setting this option is not on the list. But it shows in searching settings and after I select its not om the list...
I have the same issue on O2 Carrier Germany. SIM card is not provisioned for VoLTE but it works when used on a Galaxy J5 2017
As soon i put it in my Mi A1 upon calling there is a fallback from 4G to 3G
I also have a Vodafone SIM which is provisioned for VoLTE and in this way the option Enhanced LTE appears but has no effect because when performing a call there is again a fallback from 4G to 3G
I have now Oreo + January patch and still it does not work
Also HD voice is not working. When performing a call from my phone no HD is seen on the other endpoint and no notifaction on mine
If i get a HD voice call from another phone connection is established and quality is good but no indication on Mi A1 that it is a HD voice call

Same here for Telekom(Germany) with VoLTE enabled SIM. With Android N I got the HD Symbol and VoLTE was working within Telekom calls. With the Oreo Update that feature is gone. Regarding HDVoice (AMS-WBR): That works well for me too but I believe the HD Symbol is only shown if VoLTE is being successfully negociated between the phone and the carrier (?)
from MIUI forum, about ours issue...
At the moment VOLte is disabled in the device, in the future, after correcting more important errors, this function will be turned on at the software level
True or not I don't know..
EE support tell me,they do not support HD Voice and VoLTE on Mi A1 maybe in the near future .. BUT I saw this icon before the update and the choice was in the settings!

could you point me to the exact same firmware version you have been using? that was successful?
I read a O2 German user reported VoLTE works on a October 2017 Nougat version but he didn't mention the exact version.
Hey! To get VoLTE again, you have to type *#*#86583#*#* (or *#*#VOLTE#*#*).

I am having the same issue. I tried this and still doesn't show.
Anything else I can try.
My issues is that the phone connects to the carrier network . I can send/receive text messages and I can use data, but I cannot make or receive calls.
I contacted the carrier and they suggested I enable VoLTE but I do not have that option in any settings.

Data gone when call comes.

I'm on latest ROS MIUI and while playing game of streaming YouTube if I get a call my Data is disabled. Please help. Thanks

Okay I'll explain you the situation.
I play clash of clans and it works on internet connection. Yesterday I was playing it and my mom called on my phone. I didn't pick I just pushed up the call notification. I started getting weak signal message in game and my connection was lost.
After that I received a call again then I put call on speaker and turn on Data to use WhatsApp. When I send message it doesn't go. I think my internet connection stops when call is going on. Is it clear now? Sorry my Ingles is bad.

Yes it's lot more clear now. And about your issue, could it be a solution to use the "data during calls" toggle under your sim settings? Honestly, I don't know much about it, as I never have faced the scenario you just described. Anyway, if this doesn't help, I hope someone with a better idea will answer you. Good luck!

It is normal, you are playing games in 4g/LTE mode but when you got a call your sim mode needs to switch to 3g mode. That's the reason you got a slower internet connection while there is calling. The VoLTE mode is what you need, for you to use data connection while you are talking to someone in a call, but i think you sim card doesn't support VoLTE mode. Try to research about your sim card if it's VoLTE capable. Here in the philippines there is no VoLTE capable sim. I hope this helps. Thanks.

Do you have the volte icon on status bar? Maybe you network preference (GSM/WCDMA/LTE) is wrong, trying to use 2G/3G if available, instead 4G. Try to switch to "LTE only" and check if you can make call.

Not enough, you need to have volte (4G voice) activated on your sim card too!
I tried lte mode but can't use data while in call.
If in call the connection mode change from LTE/4G to H/3G or 2G, you don't have volte. Try to call somebody, and check the status bar network icon. Only 4G with volte able to have call and data same time.
I recently get volte working on my phone (after sending a "I want volte" mail to service provider).
This depend on service provider, some activating volte only for "officially supported" phones (my case), some automatically for all, and some have 4G network only for data and for voice using only the "old" 3G/2G.
