Verizon Volte question

I recently placed a call, and I found out that data was disabled during the call. On Verizon's site my account has HD voice enabled. I also checked the hidden menu *#*#4636#*#* and volte is provisioned. However, the cellular menu under settings does not have Enhanced 4G LTE mode. How do I get this menu to appear?

Need a little more info. Are you on nougat? Is so, this is a known issue with the new radio-toggling airplane mode should fix it until next reboot. If it's a rom, I'd ask in that thread. If your completely stock and still on marshmallow, then it's problem a Verizon issue.

Sorry, I'm still on marshmallow, totally stock.

How about a network setting reset?

I reset the network settings, still no menu.

Axon 7 on Verizon 4GLTE

Well I finally got the roaming "R" out of my notification bar and instead of just LTE it says 4GLTE now just like my previous phone (s5) on Verizon. Data, texts, mms, and calls all work. The problem is it doesn't stick after a reboot. After rebooting it's back to saying just LTE and the "R" is there. If anyone knows how to make it stick can you advise me please?

Have you disabled roaming itself?

I just tried that and i got no carrier label and no bars at all. In settings network is unknown, cell network type is unknown, cell network state disconnected. Service state says voice in service and data out of service.

And i just dialed *#*#4636#*#* and chose LTE/CDMA auto prl. Then swiped down my notification bar to enable and disable airplane mode to restart the radios and i have 4GLTE again. Changed the apn to VZW that i had on there i added. In settings everything is on and says Verizon.

I know that this "4G LTE" icon can occur when LTE-only mode is engaged...is it possible you had LTE only and were not connected to CDMA at all? I've had that occur in some fringe areas and I believe I temporarily had the "4G LTE" icon vs. just "LTE" in those cases...though it sounds like you had calling working so I'm guessing this may be a different scenario. Very strange though...

Yes that used to happen when my phone info was set on LTE/GSM/CDMA auto (PRL). But earlier today i changed it to LTE/CDMA auto (PRL) and everything works and the notification bar says 4GLTE. It stayed like that all this evening till i rebooted a few mins ago.

On the phone info page after you dial *#*#4636#*#* there's the 3 dot menu on the upper right side. On that there's an option to select radio band and when you hit it you get 3 options. USA band, band mode 6 and band mode 7. So i picked USA band and on the main page i set it to LTE/CDMA auto prl. I sent an mms to myself and it works and speed test readings is 9.84 dl and 0.91 up. I just can't make it stick after a reboot.

Data Roaming needs to be enabled in order for Verizon data service to work.

Ahh. Well, leave it to Verizon to be that way. I know going through dialer was a option but even with sprint in the past as CDMA on some older aosp ROMs, prl auto wasn't even a solution. Sometimes roaming was preferred instead of prl. So that's why I started with questioning that. If the data entry toggle makes a difference, hen I'm glad that's the solution and rather it be something you can fix on demand as opposed to it being permanent because of a carrier back end problem - - problem being in the community eyes.

Can I ask what APN you guys are using because whenever I do get LTE it says 4glte and also no service

Well i found out with these settings i couldn't access my voicemail. I had a voicemail notification and you can't use the #1 button because it's not supported, so i used *86. It would dial out and connect for a split second and cut off. And i tried multiple times pressing the #1 and *86 to get to my voicemail but couldn't. So back to the old settings with just LTE and the "R" on my notifications bar. Thank you for the help!

These are the APN settings. On the APN type i got 2 different versions from different websites. One says to put "dun" and the other says leave it out. And on bearer one says leave it as unspecified and the other put LTE. This is exactly what i have on mine.
Name: VZW
APN: VZWINTERNET
MMSC: http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms
MMS Port: 80
MCC: 311
MNC: 480
APN Type: default,dun,mms,supl
APN Protocol & APN Roaming Protocol: IPv4/IPv6
Bearer: Unspecified
everything else: None or Not Set

Quick note you have to add the above APN. With a vzw sim you can't add one so you have to borrow a gsm sim card either att or tmobile and put it in and add this and save it. Then put the vzw sim and you'll see the one you created. Check mark this APN and you'll be good to go.

Are you all able to use HD Voice & video calling with the native dialer on the Verizon network? Some phones have an option under settings called 'Advanced Calling'. This is where you can turn on HD Voice & Video Calling for Verizon.

Not sure about video calling, but HD Voice/VoLTE, yes. The one Verizon topic you didn't bump P) has screenshots & instructions from someone who is using VoLTE with the native MiFavor dialer: https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/help/verizon-compatibility-t3420991/page41

ROM that has wifi calling baked in

I was really hoping the latest update would bring wifi calling to the Moto X pure. Are their any stable ROMS that has WiFi calling baked in?

If your service provider gives it - you can try magisk module "VoEnabler".

I am stock/twrped/magisk rooted. The module installs and allows selection of WiFi Calling under settings > wireless and networks > more > wifi calling. Haven't determined if it works or not. Does seem VoLTE option is gone unless also there but hidden.

No longer under "phone" settings either. Replaced by WiFi calling. I called myself but have no indication whether or not working. I will probably know when I receive a call at home as service inside is poor.
As for the codes above. Wonder if entering them will turn WiFi calling off and return the VoLTE setting? Or, maybe they are both on now?

Okay. Code is not a switch but drings up a menu. Under phone info it shows VoLTE provisioned = ON. Guess i am good. Thanks to all.

This also works... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kasitskyi.hiddensettings, scroll down to RADIOINFO

not receiving incoming calls...

just got the phone yesterday and updated it to the P beta. everything works amazingly well for a beta in my opinion, BUT i cant receive calls. outgoing calls, texts, web and apps are just fine.
spent almost 2 hours at tmobile flipping all the settings around and no luck. any ideas would be appreciated.

Same issue here bro...Incoming don't ring but I get voicemail notifications.... Really annoying, even if it is a DP.

Turns out the beta doesn't play well with the essential LTE. Switch to 3g and calls will come through. Hopefully it doesn't take long to find a work around for it

I believe the people having this issue have volte enabled...try and disable volte (it's broken anyway and more than likely why calls won't ring through) and see if that works

Got same issue... My experience was that I could solve the problem with reboot.
Issue came after playing on settings for mobile network.
Is meaning, when you do this you have to reboot afterwards otherwise you can't receive calls
Try it.

Tried rebooting multiple times while changing settings around. The only way I can get the calls to come through is by going without LTE completely.

Settings/network settings/mobile network/advanced/enhanced LTE?

I had the same issue and to fix mine I just enabled Wifi Calling.
When on wifi I didn't get a call, just missed call notification. After enabling wifi calling, it comes through without issue.
I tested calling off wifi and on wifi and all calls come through good now.
This could be similar, so you guys might want to look at that also.
Good luck!

Heard from a few that this was solved by going into phone app settings -> calls -> calling accounts, then turning on "receive incoming calls". Seems it's disabled to save battery? Can't confirm as I just flashed to try it out and then went back to 8.1 because I like themes too much. Lol.

I'm on Sprint and was never able to make or receive calls regardless of Network settings in the easily accessible options menu.
The following fixed my issue. You can access this menu without downloading an app but I forget how so it's easier to just download the free app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xsquarestudio.forcelte
I had my network mode set to LTE/CDMA when first using this app, and somewhere in the middle I changed it to CDMA but I'm not sure how much that impacted the actual fix.
These were my steps. I'm not responsible for any damage this may cause to your device as I'm not sure if messing with these settings is foolproof or not.
First, opened previously linked app "Force LTE" then under "Set Preferred Network Type" I changed to CDMA only. Enabled/disabled airplane mode. This seemed to do nothing as LTE was still showing in statusbar.
I then chose CDMA auto (PRL), airplane mode on/off, didn't seem to do much either. LTE still showed in statusbar and couldn't make calls. Also "Voice Network Type" showed "Emergency Calls only" inside the app.
I then chose the 3 dot menu and chose "select radio band". I changed that to United States, without resolving problem. Then selected "Cellular 800" and this may have solved the problem, but I continued on and selected PCS, fiddled with some settings in Phones settings menu. Was finally able to receive calls and my signal indicator showed 3G. In app Voice Network Type was listed as 1xRtt. I decided to select radio band once more and chose Class 10.
Calls were still functioning fine. So I went into Main settings menu and changed mobile network from CDMA to LTE/CDMA. LTE kicked in and calls still work!
Again, these settings may only work for Sprint hence the PCS Network option, and I believe Sprint may utilize the 800mhz frequency. The app might show you different options depending on your carrier. I don't know.
Anyway, fully functioning! Woohoo!!

I don't have anything in my settings that says "enhanced LTE" .
Tried using the 4g/LTE and the LTE only options. Neither would let calls through.

I have this problem using the Essential PH-1 with Android 9 Pie in South Korea on the KT network. It should be fully compatible, according to radio specifications, however it only works when I change the following setting:
Settings | Network & Internet | Mobile network | Advanced | Preferred network type | 3G
This is not ideal, since it makes the Internet slow, but at least I can make/receive voice calls. I submitted a support ticket to Essential requesting their official help (I'm well within warranty).

I had the same issue when I use my Att prepaid plan. The problem is caused by wrong network type, you can send text and browse internet, because they use the different channel. My PH-1 wrongly recognized the sim as CDMA/LTE mode, just switch it to 4G/LTE, it will be work. Go to Settings, then search "wi-fi calling", point "advanced" then you can see an opinion "Preferred network type" if you are ATT or T-mobile user, and your preferred network type is "LTE/CDMA“ then your phone cannot make call. Switch it to "4G/LTE", you phone will be work. BTW, Verzion uses CDMA, so if you are Verzion user, CDMA/LTE will work for you phone.

Sprint/Tmobile S20 stuck on VoLTE?

I've been getting complaints about my cell phone connection for about a week now, and I've realized that I'm on voLTE. I quickly found the setting but it's grayed out! I can't toggle it off at all. I've tried limiting my networks around, I suppose the fastest fix would be to dock it down all the way to 3g (and while I'm home that doesn't seem like a bad option) but I'm wondering if anyone here has had a similar experience.
I'll likely launch another sprint ticket but I've already yelled at them once today about my bill (regarding the purchase of the s20)

My whole family is having this issue, they live in a place with 1 or 2 bars of nothing and it won't switch to wifi calling unless they put their phones in airplane mode or switch to 2G(GSM). But in certain places it will switch to wifi calling, it says in the Wifi Calling FAQ that as of April it would be prioritizing VOLTE over WiFi Calling.

Go into settings, General Management , Reset and Reset Network settings. You will have to log back on to your wifi and turn on Wifi Calling afterwards. It should then work. I have to do this occasionally.

On my Sprint S20, I was able to use Samsung Band Selector app to disable VOLTE, but it knocked out 5G. I have not been able to have VOLTE but still get 5G working with Sprint. Anyone else?
