S8 SM-950FD Jio VoLTE Support help - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Noob Questions : I have scanned the forum to find answers on how enable VoLTE feature in Galaxy S8 Sm-950FD for Jio Sim. I have tried the Odin route and APN method without any success. I would request friends here to provide detailed help or pointers on how to enable VoLTE for Jio Sim. Appreciate help in advance.

No need to enable VoLTE. just choose the network mode as LTE/3G/2G mode and jio volte works..
for me its working from day one.

Thanks for the reply. i have network status as mentioned. Mobile Data worKs fine but not able maKe voice calls as Jio requires VoLTE support. As of now I am usIng Jio4g voice app. Am I missing something?

Did you buy the S8 from out of India?

I have bought my S8 from Dubai and there was no VOLTE option. However my Jio sim worked fine by default. Updating to Oreo has now given me the VOLTE option.

I got this device from US. I am on Nougat. Updating Oreo will solve the problem?

Can anyone kindly help please!!!!

Buying it from US shouldn't matter if it is 950FD device. I hope you're using a Exynos device? What is your active CSC?

Backup your data, Download the latest INS (India) firmware for your device. Insert the Jio sim in slot 1 and flash the firmware through Odin. Use the regular CSC and not the Home_CSC as we need to factory reset the device. Post that you should have the INS CSC.

Thanks for the reply. The latest firmware you mean , on Sammobile is Nougat. Is it ok if I use that. Also if flash using ODIN, will I have to redo TWRP as I will loose Root access?

Search for the Oreo Odin update on Google that was released for India a week back but it is no longer available as Sam took it down. Otherwise, flash the last Nougat version. Yes, you'll loose root, twrp etc as the phone would return to the stock condition. I could have recommended flashing files through twrp, but I believe, your active CSC is messed up so a clean flash is highly recommended.

You're doing something wrong. The active CSC can't be BTU if you followed the steps correctly. Till the time, you don't completely wipe the device, it would never fall back to the correct CSC. Additionally, you need to have an Indian sim in Slot 1 before you do the process as system dynamically allocates the CSC based on the sim in slot 1.

Can you kindly elaborate what you mean by completely wipe the device. since I am using ODiN to flash the firmware, option of complete wipe doesn't arise right.? As it puts the device to stock. The firmware from Sammobile cannot be using as TWRP flash. Also I am using JIo sim in first sim slot. Am I missing any steps..... Thanks for tIme.

In the firmware pckg, there are 2 CSC files, one is the regular CSC that completely (System,Data,Internal Storage) wipes the device and the other one is Home_CSC that wipes all except the Internal Storage. You need to use the regular CSC.
Else, right now go into Settings >> Reset and do a Factory Reset.

I want to flash the latest firmware for the S7 Edge - https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/122404/G935FXXU1DQB3_G935FOXA1DQB1_BTU/
Anything I must pay attention in Odin or just flash it the normal way?
Also, in the instructions they say to use odin v3.11.1, is it ok if I use the latest odin which is v3.12.3, or it's better if I use the version they used to avoid any surprise problems?

S7 edge update to 7.0 on UK networks

I've got my phone thru EE and checked for update to 7.0 but nothing as of yet.
Has anyone in the UK received update to 7.0 and which network?
I'm thinking updating via Odin but I've read some people knox tripped using odin which is very unusal. Anyone else had the same issue?
Thanks
update
I've updated my to nougat via odin and no know tripped. Void counter remains 0.
Hi,
I'm also in the U.K using an Un-Branded Sim Free s7 edge.
I use many of the Uk Payg Networks.
You would need to wait until Samsung have sent the Firmware to EE for them to test and send back with any requested refinements and then would be pushed out to your phone. This can delay things a bit.
The Firmware should be pushed out to me directly from Samsung. (Still waiting)
Samsung U.K advised me its being sent out in waves.
Have you received update?
How are you finding it?
Thanks

ODIN doesn't trip Knox. Where did you read this exactly?
No networks have released network firmware. The only UK users to get Nougat officially are those with handsets that use stock UK BTU firmware.
If you only want Wi-Fi calling then flashing Nougat through ODIN is fine.
If you want VoLTE as well, then you need to flash the Nougat BETA 1 CSC in ODIN as well

Always flash together. All files from main release, but Nougat BETA 1 CSC. This of course will wipe your phone. Do a smart switch or Samsung cloud back up. It won't save app data, but it'll save all your .apk files, messages etc

Did you have wifi calling and volte before? can't see why a full flash wouldn't work since it has worked for everyone else that tried
Hasn't worked for everyone else. I lost WiFi calling when I went from EVR to BTU. I used Odin and flashed all files except HOME_CSC.
I'm not sure if this will help but I had similar problem with WiFi calling not working on Vodafone after flashing BTU when it used to work with BTU MM. Someone suggested to disable WiFi calling through the Vodafone app and enable it again, this fixed the issue. Do EE have a similar app or process you can try?

Don't flash BTU. Your phone will be bricked. As all International models are in exynos you can't flash an exynos Rom over snapdragon
Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
For VoLTE you need an Indian localized rom (for Samsung usually the local unbranded one works, too). Since in India the Exynos variant is distributed you will have a hard time to find a suitable rom for your Snapdragon one. If your provider does not have any app based solution you may be out of luck.
Volte mobile is good i love all features and speed of this phone. I like its work fast and did not hung.

Then via flashfire, Flash this CSC Which was basically pulled out from S8 CSC selector file by @Tkkg1994
VoLTE should pop-up after reboot.
Even wifi calling toggle comes up but Jio is yet to implement the feature (Don't turn it on... you'll miss calls when on wifi)

Serious help needed for s7 edge. Calling all the senior developers and members.

I have an s7 edge (G935W8) which is from canada. I am using it in india right now. I want to get volte working on my device which from searches i've found that i need to have indian firmware installed on my phone.
So i tried several firmwares, MM and N also, but no luck with odin. It is giving errors straight away ( repartition operation failed and oltht). Tried different firmwares, only ap and csc, repartition ticked and unticked and all the stuff that i've founded on the internet.
I don't want to root, i want only official Indian firmware on my S7 EDGE from CANADA (SM-G935W8).
Please guys help me out with that. I want it done.

Yes, you can get back to the stock firmware from custom ROM. All of the stock firmwares/os are here: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ and can be flashed with odin, resetting the phone to factory default state, i.e. as you buy it now and without any info on it. No matter if it was custom ROM or not before that.

Changing carrier ROMs US variant S7 edge

Have a question here, we get a lot of US imported phones here in Pakistan, mostly AT&T and Verizon S7 edge phones.
They've got carrier bloat and whatnot, I remember reading people flashing Verizon ROMs to get that to work properly on their AT&T phone and flashing AT&T on a T-Mobile phone to get that to work properly, so if one flashes a G935U firmware on a G935V, is it expected to work fine and act as an ordinary Snapdragon 820 S7 edge with no carrier bloat or anything?
All replies will be appreciated.
Thanks

I have, but there have been reports of it not working for some people as well, so I wanted to know if it's a legit method or if it's trial and error and it works for some and it doesn't work for others, because if it does work officially, then it'd solve a huge headache on choosing US variant phones here and we can all relax since the 935U firmware can be flashed on carrier branded phones.
Now, I need to get my hands on an American S7 edge to test this out myself.
Off course without testing nothing can be confirmed ... But most people r too faint hearted to try it

All of them. AP includes the system, recovery and cache, CP includes modem, BL includes bootloader, and CSC includes sales code.
The ROMs for S7 usually come with CSC and HOME_CSC, the latter will not wipe your device and keep the Verizon CSC which may cause issues and require you to factory reset your phone, the normal CSC files wipes the data and switches your CSC to the new one you're trying to flash.
Choose whichever one you want but I'd suggest the normal CSC just to be safe.

The ROMs for S7 usually come with CSC and HOME_CSC, the latter will not wipe your device and keep the Verizon CSC which may cause issues and require you to factory reset your phone, the normal CSC files wipes the data and switches your CSC to the new one you're trying to flash.
Choose whichever one you want but I'd suggest the normal CSC just to be safe.

Apparently I was using older version of Odin. The version you told worked for me and now I have installed G930U firmware

The main issue with me was poor battery life which was resolved when I reverted back to marshmallow. But I have yet to test the battery life on nougat. Other than this, phone is running smoothly and it feels light now due to no bloatware.

id like to know can i flash the 930u on a metropcs 930t1
Have been trying all day to load 935u on my sprint phone and it loads but it just boots into the same sprint firmware, anyway for me to change this?
Just tried to redo this, so maybe i was mistaken that it loaded....FAILS at installing boot.

You probably can, try it out, worst case scenario it fails and you'll just boot back into your normal MetroPCS firmware.

It was me, I was loading the wrong firmware. The 935U firmware will load onto Sprint phone and am using it on Straight Talk.
Which Firmware did you use ?
