I'm pretty sure neither VoLTE nor VoWIFI will work in Australia for this device out of the box, particularly for Telstra. Can anyone who bought one confirm?
Is there likely to be a way to get them to work with modifications?
I am quite interested in this phone, but sadly given the reception where I live, lack of VoWIFI support would be a dealbreaker.
You can enable VOLTE and VoWIFI with OnePlus Log Kit app.

Huh. That seems too simple. I had heard that Telstra in particular had a whitelist for which devices could access VoLTE on their network. Is that not the case?

Hm. Well I might see if I can find anyone in Aus that's bought one before I rush to shell out that amount of money. Thanks for the input tho!
FWIW - i'll be trying as soon as mine arrives and gets setup.
unit should arrive today :fingerscrossed: , then charge, setup, and i'll try this VoLTE (and yes i'm on Telstra too).
What'll be interesting is whether 5G just works as is or whether I have to request it to be added/enabled on my Telstra plan?
@StelardActek - sooo followed the guide that's in above link. Fairly straight forward and then gives you the 2 toggle switches in your sim card settings... Can toggle both VoLTE & VoWiFi BUT icons don't change, so I don't actually know if it's working or just a toggle for the sake of having a toggle.

When you say icons, do you mean the status icons? Or do you mean the HD icon doesn't come up when making a call? AFAIK that's the only way to know if you're actually on VoLTE. Also VoWIFI will cut your call over to wifi a few seconds after connecting, if you're on wifi.

Turn airplane mode on. Then turn wifi on and see if you can still make calls in airplane mode through wifi.

Yea I mean the status icon - I thought there was a 4G & VoLTE icon but I'm probably wrong.
A few quick tests -
Made call Wifi On - Dialer has HD icon on screen
Status bar icon stays the same - no indication of 4G/3G/H+ etc. , just the triangle bars
Minimised dialler - launched browser, did speedtest - get 94.12Mbps........
Hang up, status bar icon stays the same - no indication of 4G/3G/H+ etc. , just the triangle bars
Made call Wifi Off - Dialer has HD icon on screen
Status bar icon goes from 4G+ before dialling, to 3G during dialling, to H+ when call is connected..
Minimised dialler - launched browser, did speedtest - get 4.21Mbps........
Hang up, goes status bar icon goes from H+ back to 4G+
Not entirely sure what that all means now..

Just tried that - in the dialer app, a prompt comes up - "To Place a call, first turn off flight mode"
Does it not say vowifi on status bar when wifi is on or Volte when wifi is off and data is on?
@nathlynn22 @happiboi AFAIK, if it says HD during a call you're on VoLTE. And if you're connect to wifi with VoWIFI enabled then a few seconds into a call it should swap over to using that instead of the LTE network. I forget what it says exactly but it does say something in text on the call screen that makes it explicit that it's using wifi for the call.

Cheers mate! Even now I'm getting the HD on dialler screen but no VOLTE & VoWiFI on the status bar.
My call quality has been exceptionally good and very crisp and clear.
I spoke with Telstra network team this arvo and they said OnePlus 8 is on their whitelist and is VOLTE compatible even they helped me diagnose the settings.
Hi! Im much interested with oneplus 8 pro too, from AU as well. Any recommended seller? Thank you!

Hey guys there's been a strange icon in my notification bar that's bugging me a lot I don't know what it is can someone identify what it is?
Is right next to the network name.
It's a circle and a plus sign inside it
Screenshot?
A screenshot will be good.
Although, I suspect it's RCS?
Is Wi-Fi calling enabled? My Wi-Fi icon added a circle with a plus when I enabled it.
It's the data saver indicator. It can be disabled in the mobile data menu in settings.

I'm on Ting in the US(uses T-Mobile networks) and was wondering if wifi calling would work.
There's this article on their website (https://help.ting.com/hc/en-us/articles/205421918-FAQ-Wi-Fi-Calling-on-GSM-Devices) that has instructions connected to it on how to enable it but would like confirmation that these menus even exist on the OP5, cause my current phone doesn't have the option unless you search it(even then it does nothing when tapped).
This isn't an urgent thing but WiFi calling would be nice to have, I don't get the best reception in my area with any carrier.
It seems like that your phone carrier is not be supported WiFi LTE

Thanks, I was more or less looking to see a menu option for it, because I know Ting supports it.
BTW you could try an app like System UI Tuner by Zachary Wander to disable more icons than than the normal UI Tuner allows. It just requires a few ADB commands if you not rooted. I believe it supports removing VoLTE and VoWiFi icons.

Thanks, my status bar is just how I like it? And I'm not 100% sure if system ui tuner was giving me constant system ui crashes whenever I got below 15% battery.. It's happened on all 3 phones I installed system ui tuner on.. So I stopped installing it lol.
I had an att mvno that did not support vowifi/lte previously, and when I did, that menu option in my screenshot would not appear.. So should you get your op5 and those menu options not appear under sim and network settings, you'll know it's not supported .
I cannot use PH-1 's NFC, no any sound or response if tag to NFC tag/device.
I can use same approach to read my NFC tag, pairing my headphone with another Android phone, but no any response on PH-1 ...
I download apps: 1) NFC check : Said the phone included NFC. 2) NFC Tool : cannot read my NFC tag, no any response. 3) NXP NFC: Cannot read my NFC tag, no any response.
Might the NFC is broken? Damn, I am in oversea is difficult to perform replacement. :crying:

Made sure android beam & NFC was enabled on both phones and then touched the base of the PH-1 to the middle of the other phone (LG G6). Both phones have to be unlocked & awake.

Bottom nfc antenna works great for tap to pay.
I guess pairing to ph1 would be goofy though.

For me it works flawlessly with my nfc sony speaker. Pairing was flawless with vibration/sound feedback.
(Yeah at first had to find out where the nfc is located (HW)
Has anyone noticed the new data flow arrows are now independent of the wifi and cell icons. Now when data is sent the little arrows pop up, moving the Bluetooth icon around to the left and right. It's a bit jumpy and disconcerting - any ideas on how to solve?
Substratum doesn't seem able to do anything about it, unfortunately.
yup as most of users aren't used to system icons on the right to move, it feels distracting. Arrows should have been a little smaller above the wifi icon so that there's no need to move the adjacent icons.
I have also noticed this and find it distracting, not an improvement on the old system IMO. Also the X on the deactivated simcard.
Another thing I noticed is the background apps notification. Any way to disable?
I have the same problem. I wonder if it's a bad implementation of Xiaomi, or a bug in Oreo itself
Exactly

You don't have to disable any icon, just install substratum app + substweaks and "Enable WiFi activity indicators", it will remove them from status bar for both wifi and mobile data.
Substratum theme substweaks will help to get rid of the arrows also you can center clock. It gives you the option to enable the arrows, but if you choose it, it results to the opposite

Hey y'all, I feel like this is such a meme, but does anyone know how to enable the VoLTE icon to show up?
I've made all the CSC tweaks about VoLTE and Icon in /system/omc/XEU, I do get VoLTE in my network settings, but the icon doesn't show up.
Is there some kernel/build prop/csc tweak needed?
I tried a custom kernel once and it showed up - but surely that isn't required?
I'm on Pie, HadesRom (but happened on stock anyway), on XEU/XEU/O2U, SM-G950F.
Thank you!

Three and O2 are two UK carriers that doesn't have the VOLTE icon showing in the statusbar. So it's not suppose to be showing. WiFi calling icon shows if you have it activated while on WiFi. I'm currently with Three as my private phone but have the note 9 as a work phone with 02. To try it out just make a phone call, if it stays on 4g, VOLTE is activated.
