I can't enable the VoLTE on my vivo phone. Can you help me?
[Google Pixel 6] punkmexic:
I can't use pixel ims in pixel 7 in January 2024, who can fix pixel ims to be compatible with latest Android beta?
[Google Pixel 6] icyoryal:
Thanks for this hack! My Oppo Reno Z finally has VOLTE with Australia's Lebara network. Yes, I do need to repeat the steps if I restart.
[Google Pixel 6] herasymcuk:
I'll explain my situation to you, then I hope that some expert can help me.

Phone: Sony Xperia 1 IV with Android 14. (still not certified by Wind for Wificalling)

By default with my Italian Wind3 sim the phone only had the option to activate VoLTE... but the IMS was not registered. Even trying with the Shizuku app and Pixel IMS app and activating everything, nothing changed, although all the items were present (VoWifi...Vo5g...). I then called wind3... and from Albania) a nice lady helped me... pointing out that since there is 5g, wind avoids making Volte activations.... but in 2 minutes she activated it for me. Result: IMS status registered....but VOWifi still not enabled......

I understand that wind3, on the operator side, can't do anything, right? Many users here on XDA have solved the problem by adding an ims APN....but unfortunately wind3 does not allow you to add an ims type APN. Maybe by connecting the cell phone to the PC with an abd command you can force it... but I haven't tried.

I read that it is possible to flash a modem configuration file that has already enabled VoWifi? If so, which one do you recommend and how to do it?

It's disarming to see how wind3 has certified ALCATEL!!! and not a SONY model. Then when I have a Swiss SIM... I've been using it for over a year (in Switzerland) without problems.
[Google Pixel 6] bartgrefte:
Tried it on the same type of phone here , but with Dutch provider Simyo, it works :)

Solution won't survive reboot though.

Just out of curiosity, that this solution makes the VoLTE and VoWiFi settings appear and actually work (thanks for that morphvale!), what could be the reason the VoLTE/VoWiFi settings didn't appear in the first place?

Could it be grey import, as in imported from different country (haven't been able to find out if this is the case), or is it because of the fact that Simyo won't acknowledge the existence of Oppo?
[Google Pixel 6] AlexReed:
Will Pixel 5 work? Could you develop a version of the pixel 5 that we can use?:cry:
[Google Pixel 6] tjhbell:
Hello I have a pixel 5 w/o root here in New Zealand. It is not sim locked. I have approached the carrier about my phone and they said they are only provisioning the pixel 6 and newer. I have tried sim cards with other carriers but they have applied the same provisioning.

In two weeks I am staying on my cousins farm and they dont have cellphone reception there so I would really like to enable Wifi Calling. I have attached a snapshot of "Phone Info"

Any Ideas?
[Google Pixel 6] psicomartintj:
I'm from Mexico and this did the trick for a Google Pixel 5 with Android 14. Because my device is no longer elegible for system or security updates (and I don't want to root it), I decided to take the risk and follow this tutorial. Everything went ok.

And (as mentioned above) with the latest updated APK file, I toggle ON WIFI calls as well.View attachment 6112377
[Google Pixel 6] charlie_rt:
Hi Buddy, I'm from Mexico too I have a pixel 5 but I'm using it with AT&T so I need to activate volte due to I living in the border with USA so when I cross the border I cannot make calls on 4G due to USA shutdown 4G since a while.

Do you say that this method works for your device pixel 5 android 14 Successfully?

Could you please share a picture of the phone information*#*#4636#*#* with IMS status please?
[Google Pixel 6] psicomartintj:
Hola Charlie:

Ya no tengo el celular conmigo porque se lo pasé a mi hija. Pero sí me aparecieron activas esas funciones tras teclear 4636. Las llamadas nunca las hice fuera de México, pero SÍ fue notoria la calidad de las llamadas antes y después de este pequeño hack que le hice. Mi cel era un Pixel 5 con Android 14 y el último parche de seguridad oficial y disponible que tuvo.

Lo ideal sería volverte usuario root y realizar todo el procedimiento (para obtener también acceso a la red 5G), pero si usas aplicaciones bancarias, estas ya no van a funcionar y por eso no quise correr riesgos.

Otra cosa importante a destacar es que NO debes resetear tu celular o se pierden las configuraciones.
[Google Pixel 6] charlie_rt:
Gracias por responder amigo.

Yo realize un procedimiento con shizuku pero como es solo para procesador tensor no jala para pixel 5 , si me habilitaba los switches de volte y vowifi pero no sé registraba en IMS al entrar al menú de phone information 4636 en IMS status salía unregistered. Por lo que nunca se harían llamadas a través de volte.

Y como dices no quiero hacer root por las app bancarias quiero tenerlo de stock.

Voy a intentar este método a ver si jala

Gracias
[Google Pixel 6] psicomartintj:
Al menos en mi caso, la solución que propuso el autor de este post la seguí al pie de la letra en un Google Pixel 5 stock y sin root ¡Y me funcionó! Por eso adjunté la captura de pantalla como prueba de lo anterior. El autor dijo que después puedes desinstalar las apps, pero yo elegí no hacerlo y le dije a mi hija que tampoco lo hiciera... no vaya a ser el diablo, jejeje.
[Google Pixel 6] charlie_rt:
Pero fíjate que en la captura de pantalla solo se ven los switches de llamadas 4g en el menú cosa que también el mío aparecían pero no sé registraba en IMS por eso t preguntaba si a ti si se te registraba ya que es el mismo teléfono y mismo Android que tengo yo.
[Google Pixel 6] psicomartintj:
Lo crucial aquí es que en las líneas donde dice "Tipo de red de datos" y "Tipo de red de voz" diga LTE. Pero incluso si en tu caso dice unknown/desconocido, la diferencia entre la calidad de audio por medio de la red 3G (la que el Pixel usa por defecto antes del hack) y la red LTE (la que usa después de) es fácilmente perceptible.

Yo sí la noté, porque cuando hablada por teléfono mi esposa, ella se quejaba conmigo que me escuchaba con un volumen muy bajo y "se cortaba la llamada". Tras seguir el tutorial, ya no me pasó eso.

Mira en este OnePlus que traigo si tengo apagado el switch volte en IMS aparece no registrado y voz a través de LTE no disponible.

Si enciendo el switch volte y vuelvo a entrar al phone information ahí ves que en registro de IMS dice registrado y voz a través de LTE disponible y así si puedo hacer llamadas a través de la red 4G LTE.

Esto es lo que necesito que haga el Pixel 5 para poder usarlo de igual manera en USA
[Google Pixel 6] psicomartintj:
¡NO te vayas con la finta, compañero!

Aquí te va otra muestra: Actualmente tengo un chaomi 12 pro y a pesar de que tiene la rom global de HyperOS/Android 14 y el equipo es 100% compatible con las radiofrecuencias LTE y 5G de Telcel (B4, B28 y B78), cuando hago la misma comprobación en mi cel, el IMS me dice "No registrado" y "No disponible", pero en el otro menú sí están habilitadas.

Y la calidad de las llamadas es notoria entre la red 3G y 4G.
[Google Pixel 6] charlie_rt:
Para salir de dudas amigo es fácil.

Ahí en phone information selecciona tipo de red únicamente LTE only.

Así estás forzando que el teléfono solo use 4G LTE y trata de realizar una llamada y si tú llamada conecta o se enlaza es que estás llamando a través de voz LTE. Si tú llamada no enlaza o se corta inmediatamente cuando marcas es porque no tienes volte activado y tu teléfono no puede realizar llamadas en 3g o H+ porque tú estás forzando a solo usar LTE

Olvidemos en calidad de llamada o como se escucha eso realmente no te dice nada.

Haz la prueba y sal de dudas amigo.

[Google Pixel 6] gape78:
I've a Pixel 5 and in the settings I've also the switches for VoLTE and VoWifi (both enabled). Didn't root the phone or installed anything for that. How can I see if it works? Can I see I in the call list or is there a sign on the display while I'm calling...? Does it work if the LTE is provided with another SIM (Airalo) than my phone number (austria)? Currently I'm in US.

Btw... A second problem, but couldn't find it here or with Google. I can make calls to and from my home place and also get calls from US, but can't call someone in US. My provider at home is clueless also it seems.
[Google Pixel 6] charlie_rt:
input on the dialer *#*#4636#*#* and on the Phone information go to the tree dots on the upper right corner, press it on the IMS service status .

In there you must be Registered on IMS and Voce over LTE available.

If you dont have this , then you cannot make calls over LTE
[Google Pixel 6] charlie_rt:
other way to see if youre calling over LTE ,

is on that same menu *#*#4636#*#* force to LTE only and then try to make a call , if youre not able to make calls then you dont have VOLTE working on your phone.
[Google Pixel 6] gape78:
Thx, so it looks like it's not enabled for me.

[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] mayurh:
hi watch 3 users..not getting any whatsapp call notifications on my watch 3 BT, i have a xiaomi 11T, did samsung block this?

i used a workaround found on this forum , ie, reverting to older plugin,, but as soon as i got to latest plugin in the playstore , no more notifications..

what can i do apart from reverting back?

is there anyone else affected? i can confirm people with samsung phones on the latest app versions and plugins have no issues..they have the same model galaxy watch3 BT like me

its really frustrating , Samsung said via twitter i must take the watch to a store to check out.i've not had the time to do that yet

I believe these two errors are connected, but I am not sure why this is happening. I am aware google did something regarding preventing bootloader rollback with android 13, and I recall accidentally installing it OTA once and having to rollback to 12.
[Google Pixel 6] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
You flashed Android 13 at some point (the "invalid rollback counter" error). Once Android 13 is installed you cannot install older bootloaders. Period.

The other error? Raw format means no formatting at all. In essence you have a blank drive. You may want to try restoring using Google's flash tool prior to installing your chosen ROM.
[Moto G Power Guides, News, & Discussion] Yeedatoy:
Nice detailed Guide! Just want to point out that you don't need to flash boot a and b with magisk. Just fastboot flash boot boot.img.

Also, Updating to 12 will break widevine L1. If you don't mind L3, go ahead. Personally it pisses me off.

Every version of firmware has the same apps on it. They're all full of carrier apps and bloat so flashing retail firmware won't change anything like the older Moto phones. I personally have deleted maybe 200 apps from stock including their corresponding overlays. If you use EX kernel manager there is a Hexicore mode on a12. You won't find this on other kernel managers. Also, I suggest deleting the live wallpaper app as it will make the device ridiculously slow
[Moto G Power Guides, News, & Discussion] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
Great feedback. Thanks for sharing. I believe my next project will be fully debloating.a retail firmware package and then posting a guide for installing it via fastboot. Yes, I agree that flashing to boot_a & boot_b is not required. However, I have encountered instances where members are using way outdated fastboot binaries that don't automatically flash the active slot, so I got into the habit of instructing for both slots as a precaution. ( Even though I do provide a link for a fairly recent fastboot binary, not every member follows instructions.)

That's good info on Widevine L1 breaking on the Windows 12 update. I sure didn't know that. Thanks for the tip on a12 EX Kernel Manager as well.

Thanks again for your valuable feedback & input. I'll certainly use this info on my debloated firmware project, including that cursed live wallpaper app. Hate that RAM consuming thing. 😑

In fact, if you could dump a super.img on your debloated setup, I would of course credit the work to you in my upcoming guide. Thanks again. 👍😁

.im following everything to the T but when i flash patched_boot.img i get

View attachment 5878959

i also tried flashing it while on the previous fastboot screen , and i get the same but the fail reason is no such file or directory

im using the patched boot img supplied on post for android 12

how do i fix this?
[Moto G Power Guides, News, & Discussion] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
No such file
[Moto G Power Guides, News, & Discussion] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
Seems like an error with the fastboot path. But out of curiosity, what version of fastboot are you using? And I do need to ask, are you certain that your bootloader is in an unlocked state?
[Moto G Power Guides, News, & Discussion] keezeysqueezey:
not sure fastboot version ? whichever comes on moto g power , and yes bootloader is unlocked 100%
[Moto G Power Guides, News, & Discussion] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
I meant, did you install the Minimal ADB & Fastboot tools from the link I provided, or are you using another configuration of tools?
[Moto G Power Guides, News, & Discussion] keezeysqueezey:
well the minimal fastboot u posted says corrupted , but im using the same version from elsewhere ...wait a sec....leme try something....... ok so, if i try to open the patched boot img , it also says corrupted
[Moto G Power Guides, News, & Discussion] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
You can't open an Android boot.img using the native Windows File Explorer. You need an image extractor such as Carliv Image Kitchen or SuperR's Kitchen. Also, both patched boot images have been thoroughly tested and verified with md5 checksums. I double-checked all files available on the links I posted. No files are corrupt.

I just downloaded and installed the Minimal ADB & Fastboot tools from my link as well with no problems.Not sure why it's showing corrupt on your system.

Ok, did you follow Step 1 entirely and copy the Minimal ADB & Fastboot folder from your C: drive and paste it to your desktop? This is the folder where you must save the patched boot image you downloaded from the link I provided.

While connected in fastboot mode, execute the following command and post the command prompt output here.

fastboot getvar all

This will let me know why fastboot is returning an Invalid partition name for the /boot partition.
[Moto G Power Guides, News, & Discussion] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
So your active boot slot is slot _a. Use this command to flash the patched boot image.

fastboot flash boot_a patched_boot.img
[Moto G Power Guides, News, & Discussion] keezeysqueezey:
awesome, thank u ! it worked , thanks again
[Moto G Power Guides, News, & Discussion] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
No problem friend. The problem was, the version of fastboot tools you were using does not automatically detect and flash your active slot. In such a scenario, the active slot must be specified during flashing. I realize you had trouble installing the fastboot tools I linked above and had to find tools elsewhere.

Anyway, glad you got it.
[Moto G Power Guides, News, & Discussion] WoKoschekk:
The Minimal ADB/Fastboot Tools version is very, very outdated! You should use the link to Google's platform tools. The page is currently not available but should be online in the next hours.

[Moto G Power Guides, News, & Discussion] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
The Minimal ADB & Fastboot tools, while outdated, are fully sufficient for tasks such as bootloader unlocking and flashing Magisk patched boot images to achieve root. If this threat involved more in-depth command lines, such as those used in the newer dynamic FastbootD userspace mode, the platform tools would surely be needed. But for the rudimentary tasks encompassed in this guide, Minimal ADB & Fastboot works great.
[Moto G Power Guides, News, & Discussion] WoKoschekk:
I also have problems with the installation of your ADB/Fastboot Tools. Execution of the file leads to:

View attachment 5880235

Yes, you are right. This version will flash any device as good as the current version. But every user will get the same error as in post #4 because this version of fastboot can't handle A/B slots and many other functions released since 2013.

[Moto G Power Guides, News, & Discussion] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
Thanks for your feedback and reporting the issue with the fastboot tools. I'll upload another copy and change the link.

Minimal ADB & Fastboot does indeed support A/B partitioning and automatically flashes your active boot slot without the need to specify boot_a or boot_b. That particular member had issues because he didn't use Minimal ADB & Fastboot. He used another fastboot tools implementation because, like you, he was unable to install the Minimal tools due to an error. @WoKoschekk , if you don't mind doing so, I would ask you to validate my position on this and flash your device using Minimal ADB & Fastboot using the exact instructions I have outlined. I'm 99% certain on my position but I need to be 100% sure when providing instructions in tutorials. I'm traveling and cannot test this myself or I would do it. I will post a new link for the tools shortly. Thanks again for your valuable feedback and for validating this, if you don't mind doing it. It would be a huge help.

Bummer, that's me. No unlocking and no alternative OSes either. (Though bing's AI claims otherwise!)

Was hoping for a faster boot ROM, as the CPU is underpowered.

[Moto G Power Guides, News, & Discussion] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
Pixel 6 is a damn good choice for both performance and customization. According to the forums I just read here on XDA, the Mint Mobile variant of the Google Pixel 6 can be bootloader unlocked and flashed with the GrapheneOS custom ROM, just as you stated.
