The thread starts with N9860, but I am using G9860 and work it out..

* Disclaimer: Its your phone, if you want to take the risk try it.

1. Need to root your device with Magisk or any root process you can use for your phone

2. Install Root Explorer and navigate look for the customer.xml. By default, depending on your CSC, the volte settings was set to the operators of the said country

3. You might also save imsservice.apk and backup both original file in case you can revert back.

4. Edit customer.xml, you can right click open the file and use xml editor available online. You can see operator settings, at the end check for Operator setting with VoLTE enabled. Take note of that and for the whole XML file, edit that operator settings fully on that xml.

Note: MNC-MCC

DITO 51566

DITO APN: internet.dito.ph

Save your edited customer.xml base on your operator preferred volte to enable

5. Replace customer.xml using root explorer, with changing permission to Execute

6. Actually, backup your files on phone, because you need to Wipe (thru recovery mode) the phone after and setup as new settings. Before you proceed with Wipe, check OEM Unlock is enabled on your Developer Option

7. After reboot you can see Enable/Disable VoLTE options on Mobile Network Settings and see VoLTE on signal bar

Please do take this at your own risk and don't blame me if has errors. Mine worked already enabled 4 G9860

It might be the hard way to enable VoLTE for DITO but if there still way here you can share. No problem

Smart and Globe VoLTE has no issues on VoLTE by the way it will work as is.. Just for DITO

For me i use BRI - Taiwan Firmware so I Edited TW Mobile operator

For TGY - Hongkong, you can edit 3 Macau settings to DITO

I'm using S20 FE 5G HK Variant. After doing this "Try this. On UE Settings>Protocol>GCF>Remove NR Whitelisting. Then reboot. That's the first step I did." I can detect 5g signal but everytime I turn on data it goes back to 4g+. Tried doing speedtest or youtube but still doesn't go to 5g. =(

PS: I'm using Smart Prepaid
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] Andromeduh:
Maybe the bands assigned for 5G in your area isn't compatible? IIRC the 5G band it connects to here in my house is B5, so I'm not sure if you have that band. If ny memory serves me right, only B1 and B5 gets enabled for 5G under Smart.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] Andromeduh:
Not sure why it didn't work earlier but thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] tribalfs:
Thank you for sharing.

I understand this process is basically adding DITO's APN in order to use DITO's data and VoLTE, right? Is manually adding this APN in Settings > Mobile networks doesn't work?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] tribalfs:
What device do you have? 5G band 5 is missing in SM-N9860.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] ching2-o:
@tribalfs

No it not just a basic adding an APN

Even you add manually APN, yes Mobile Data will work but VoLTE will not be present and no VoLTE switch and cannot make a call because DITO is purely VoLTE technology on Calls and no more fallback to 3G or GSM for Calls. DITO is not defined on imsservice.apk and customer. xml.

I am not sharing enable and define manually an APN but to Enable VoLTE and VoWiFi of the phone with DITO Network

You cannot add an uneditable ims settings on the APN to work DITO VoLTE. Even you add manually VoLTE will still not work.

Maybe updates will fix the issue especially Android 11 but initially since by default Android 10 or stock, VoLTE will not work.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] ching2-o:
And another thing, for the case of this Service Mode:

UE SETINGS>Protocol>GCF>Remove NR Whitelisting.

No Problem with Philippine Globe and Smart NSA 5Gs

For Phillippine DITO Network, 5G will still not work even if if N41 and N78 is within the N9860/G9860 even removed whitelist or SA/NSA Enable. That what's im trying to figure it out if someone could share fix for it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] tribalfs:
So this process adds both APN and VoLTE profile. Thanks for clearing.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] tribalfs:
Maybe no 5G coverage. There's no DITO 5G site yet according to this DITO's website.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] syber shaman:
Just updated a couple of days ago, and surprisingly, no changes were made. Everything is as I left them. Wish it's always like this. No more modifying after each update.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] ching2-o:
I am a telecom engineer, we have the database and we can pinpoint where and check status of on-air 5G sites which the DITO websites still didn't published. There are on-air 5G DITO sites in Mindanao especially in Davao and we tested the phone, didn't received 5G even if we tested together with a 5G CPE. IT should received N41/N78 Band but failed.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] Trayner:
Is there a way to reset the settings back to stock? Think I might have turned to many settings on and want to go back lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] omniviper:
Glad I found this. Tested and got 5g working on a Korean variant a90. Didn't have all the menus but it did have the whitelist which I fiddled with and got 5g to work
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] omniviper:
Guess I rejoiced too soon.

Indicator shows 5g

However network info app shows 4g LTE

Fast speed shows LTE speed

My non 5g data is being consumed despite it being unli 5g.

What am I doing wrong

Did the whitelist clearance

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] syber shaman:
About the VoLTE/VoWIFI, is this confirmed? Cause I'm facing the same issue. I can't even activate RCS features in the stock messages app. Anyway, to activate VoLTE/VoWIFI, I need to call them? I'm using Smart by the way.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] keanuV:
I am using DITO on a BRI firmware too, and I got volte working without rooting my phone. I just followed a video I saw on a facebook post. 5G is not that important to me though.

So I think there is still a way to activate volte on DITO in N9860.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] syber shaman:
Can you post a link? I want to try it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] Andromeduh:
Up for this. If we get VoLTE working for DITO without root then that would be awesome.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] tribalfs:
Maybe it's adding the following DITO's IMS APN (in addition to internet APN) that makes it work?

DITO IMS APN:

Name: IMS

APN: ims

MCC: 515

MNC: 66

APN type: ims

APN protocol: IPv4/IPv6

APN roaming protocol: IPv4/IPv6

---------------------------

DITO INTERNET APN:

Name: DITO Internet

APN: internet.dito.ph

Update: Confirmed working on TGY and BRI
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] syber shaman:
What about Smart & Globe? What are the APN settings for those? Might try it on my end.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] tribalfs:
Based on my experience, they are automatically added even on Hongkong version.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] syber shaman:
On mine, VoLTE and VoWIFI don't work. Even RCS on stock Messages doesn't work. RCS on Google Messages and 5G does work though.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] tribalfs:
On Globe, it's not automatic - you have to request the telco to activate VoLTE and VoWifi on your sim. It maybe the same for Smart.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] xUtsumi:
A small trick using the Samsung Network Band Selector app on google play. I was able to open this menu which was not available through normal means. I was able to select 5G as preferred. And turn on/off volte and vowifi.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] Andromeduh:
Tried it, still didn't work ☹️
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] syber shaman:
This is weird. The VoLTE icon doesn't appear in my status bar, but on google phone, one of my calls had the HD icon in my call history. I searched and found out this only happens when the call is made with VoLTE enabled. So what gives!?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] tribalfs:
You can confirm It's working if the network stays at LTE while on voice call.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] tribalfs:
Update: I bought a DITO sim and tried. I can confirm that manually adding this IMS APN in addition to the internet APN does enable DITO VoLTE on SM-N9860 Hongkong variant (either TGY or BRI). Call and text work. No root needed.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] Andromeduh:
Not sure why but for S20FE HK, not working for me. Any other settings applied? Also, what's the security patch you have?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] tribalfs:
No other settings just this and the VoLTe switch in settings. Did it with July sp, now it's on Aug (correction: prev is Jun and current is Jul)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] Andromeduh:
I just tried it again and it's now working, finally. Also, no other settings were changed since when I checked on the APN, I see IMS not listed but VoLTE now working as well. Must be with the Carrier Services update from Google.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] tribalfs:
Could also be from (network) policy update

Edit: I found out that carrier services is not installed/pre-installed on my SM-N9860.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] ivanox1972:
I applied tweak for 4g+ on n9860 here i Serbia. Symbol still shows 4g (no plus) but Internet looks faster on naked eye. Speeds goes from 20 to 35mbs on speed test. I have also mate 20x 5g which shows 4g plus regularly, but speed is just little better.

Is there any sense to try changing TGY to BRi csc and all that gym, or probably I already got result best possible just by tweak?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] Andromeduh:
Hmmm. Interesting. Maybe DITO just pushed network update on towers, and supporting all networks?

I need your help. My cousin from Holland bought a new phone and gave me his old device J7 2016, I have a problem in my country, a device that is not registered with imei cannot be used to search.

no call is made. What can I do? Help me please.

https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-enable-t-mobile-volte-vowifi-on-asus-smartphones-root/

Click the link and follow the guide. That should work on the international one(model a). Maybe someone can try it on the tencent version(model b) flashed with the Global rom and try the guide. This should enable you to activate it on T-mobile after they stated that a phone needs to be compatible with voLTE in order to activate and use it on T-mobile that started on August 27th. I don't have the phone to test so if it worked for you, please mention what version of the phone you have here for potential buyers. Thanks.
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] bs3pro:
Root is not needed, just the build.prop edits. I made a how to, but got spammed and flamed, so deleted it. It will work on both versions with ww sw.
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] TehAdventurer:
So if one were to pick up an A version and use this method and then down the line there is an OTA update for volte in the US would there be a conflict?
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sugaaa:
Thats interesting. The guide mentions that you need root. Also, how compatible is model b tencent version with T-Mobile? They're missing a lot of bands. For 5g, it only has band 41 2.5GHz which hasn't even been fully released yet. It's missing band 71 600 MHz and the other 260 and 261 bands for 5G high speed mmwave.

For 4G LTE, it's missing bands 66, 12, and 71.
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sugaaa:
If i had to take an educated guess, the update would overwrite the previous settings. However, if it messes it up, we could probably reflash the stock rom and update it normally or flash an updated stock rom.
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] bs3pro:
Ota won't cause a conflict. I'm using version a on TMO, and it works better than my s20ultra.
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sugaaa:
Where did you get model a? Hopefully somewhere where it's not too expensive. I'm looking for 12gb ram 256gb. At the same time, I want to wait for u.s version release that should come out at the end of this month, maybe they might include mmwave bands for 5g and more compatible 4g lte bands at a good price.
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] bs3pro:
No mw bands on rog3, even "us" version. You will have to buy the 12gb 512 for version a. Big bucks, $1k. Waiting for us version is a waste of time. I got my a version a month ago on ebay.
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sugaaa:
Ebay is full of the Chinese ones now with the rom. I've seen the model a on aliexpress and i don't have to pay tax but the wait time is going to be crap for it.

The only sure way to know its the a version is the prism box and free cooler inside right? Also do you have a link to check the 5g and 4g lte bands on the model a or is it the same as the u.s version model a? I can't find accurate bands anywhere for the international.

The only thing that worries me with getting the international a version is t-mobile coming out with a whitelist like at&t and not officially supporting the rog 3 which would make it useless on their network.
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] bs3pro:
TMO has no white list for volte/wifi like att, and never will. Gotta buy the prism box, yes. And all version A's have same exact bands. I get great service on my rog3, even sa5g now that TMO enabled it. Btw, vowifi works too.
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] alane708:
I can confirm this works without rooting, thanks! I have version b with ww ROM
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sugaaa:
Did you get both voLTE and voWiFi working? and is receiving/ making calls stable? Or bad reception in some areas?
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] alane708:
Yeah, it sometimes shows VoLTE, and sometimes shows Vowifi , I am pretty sure it's working because I noticed the call quality is much better and it does show in phone info as well. I never experience any signal issues, well yet
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] XxDMDxX:
Diagnostic Mode

What exactly are the build.prop edits? I failed to enter diagnostic mode by both usb and remote methods. I have dowloaded the QPST config, drivers, and the asus volte app as suggested.
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] bs3pro:
None of that is needed. Just build.prop edits in adb.
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Copperbear:
WiFi Calling on TMO?

Have you been able to use WiFi calling on T-Mobile? If so, did it come with the update that included VoLTE or did you achieve that another way?
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] bs3pro:
It worked with the build.prop edits, but the newest update has enabled volte and wifi calling. No edits needed.
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] bindassever:

[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] bodomfan:
I successfully unlocked my bootloader, installed twrp and rooted with magisk then tried installing a rom, carbon rom to be precise... now my phone wont boot up at all just showing a black screen and it only goes into fastboot mode, how would I go about fixing it please
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
Did you ask in the carbon thread?

Chances are it was a wipe issue.

Did you wipe in stock or aosp recovery?

You can always get back to stock by flashing the stock firmware.

I did this via booting twrp then flashing to both slots.

So unlock storage in twrp, then go flash the ROM, reboot recovery and it'll change slot.

Then flash it again.

Then reboot

Should boot

If not boot to recovery again (not twrp) and wipe system and data.

Should work then..

I didn't have that issue when carbon myself

If push comes to shove there's a tool to get back to stock [MENTION=11014779]meffles[/MENTION] has suggested it a few times but I've not used it myself, although he has and he swears by it.

Probably a good way to go and won't be hard.

Meffles is your man or check in the thread..

Don't you connect in EDL mode?

Think it's like a lower level recovery mode that you get to without having the cable connected. The screen will be blank..

Then connect and if should show..

Least that's my loose understanding of it.

Make sure you have ran it as an administrator and that all pre requisites are installed that the application requires..

Turn your phone off, and make sure you don't have any cables connected. Hold volume up + volume down for 20 seconds, then plug in the usbc cable whilst still holding the volume buttons.
