I have icon on top of screen showing its enabled but when I go into call/settings the option is not there to disable it, I cannot make any calls or receive due to no volte coverage where I live can anyone help
Hello. Am having a phone icon on the top right on the right of the bluetooth and left of the wifi. The phone icon has 3 semicircles like a wifi symbol on top. I don't know what it is and how to get rid of it.
Could you please advise?
Thank you!

Try turning wifi calling off and see if that is it
yeah did that but nothing happens. i thought that this might be it but had no luck.
My guess is that it's a VoLTE icon
who is your carrier?
On orange romania
It is Orange Romania
It's the Volte symbol as mentioned by se1000. You can switch it off in mobile networks. Thanks again !
I have been searching for threads regarding this issue but haven't come across one. I want to disable it to get better battery life.
TLTR: I made this thread to discuss any solution for this 'issue' and informing others about this one workaround.
Backstory: So I bought a s8 in Singapore and activated it using a Singaporean sim card, at that point, there was an option on the notification panel to enable and disable VoLTE.
Now that I am in India, I inserted an Indian sim card and factory reseted my phone, and poof no more VoLTE option.
Now, even if I set my Mobile Network mode to 3g/2g (auto connect), on the status bar it shows the 4g badge.
So I came across this comment by MeNtAl_DaRkNeSs on Standby drain thread, and he showed a work around to disable it.
(link: forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/review/standby-drain-t3645200/post74107643#post74107643 )
Steps:
1st - Download and install Nova Launcher (if you don't use it yet);
2nd - Enable the Widget "Activities" of Nova Launcher:
3rd - Search "Phone" with 129 in front of it:
4th - Expand and search for "Enhanced LTE Services":
5th - Disable Enhanced LTE Services
I followed it but it still shows 4g badge. Now idk whether it worked or not and if the 4g badge is only for show.
Do you guys have any solutions/workaround? or VoLTE/4g calling was never enabled in India?
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?
Regards

You always have the HD symbol or only when you make a volte call?

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.

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!
OMG. Im flash back clear Android 7.1.2 (7.12.19) and VoLTE ON !!!
so flash back to Android 8, ALL VoLTE settings locked again!! Android 8 issue

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 have 2 SIMs (Both 4G/VoLTE) but none seem to work with Max Pro M2. Is there any issue with VoLTE?
One is from Airtel another from Idea.
I even tried *#*#4636#*#* and forcing LTE but the issue is after reboot the menu changes back to TD-SCDMA/CDMA/UTMS
Mobile Radio Power and VoLTE Provisioned show Green
Voice / Data network type show LTE
In settings Enhanced VoLTE is enabled and Select Network 4G Preferred.
Also as its a Dual SIM phone after dialing *#*#4636#*#* only one SIM shows up in the menu for settings so I have to disable one sim and update setting.
But settings dont stay and keep changing back.
Mobile Operators say that VoLTE is enabled for my number and should work but not working. Any help? Or anyone else facing this issue?
Thanks
For me also airtel volte did not work. Switched to jio where it worked. Cant say about idea.
