I just made a call and my LTE didn't drop and I was able to surf the internet while on the call so I think the official OTA is about to drop and they've activated the advanced calling features.
on prerooted .509 btw
I just gave mine a try on .485 and it dropped my LTE as soon as the call began. Can anyone else confirm that it is working on the alternate lollipop?
You can see the ongoing call in the status bar as well as the active LTE

Interesting. I have rooted .485, and want to keep root to get the same firmware as you. Is it a simple upgrade to the new software through TWRP recovery to jump from .485 to yours?

was it active on your line before with another device? Mine was, and I suppose it could be location specific. Who knows for sure, but it is definitely working for me. Simultaneous voice/data and HD calling.

No, it wasn't active on my line before but we have over 40 phones on the business account and there is no way to activate it on our side of the account management.
Coworkers with the GS5/6 iPhones have advanced calling.
I can't seem to get it working either. Hmmm, I wonder if it is a regional thing or why one person can the feature over the others.

I think unless you had it active already on a different device it won't work. I suspect they have activated it for testing prior to the lollipop update.
Again it's possible they've only activated it for testing it in limited areas.

I have a note5 with it active on my current line and it the interesting thing, is that it shows up when you go into my MyVerizon account as an active feature. Could it be a SIM card issue that only certain ones are supported?

Ok so i have the tmobile sim in my verizon phone I am using the fast.T-Mobile.com apn settings I'm in a 4g area. My issue is my phone rapidly changes from h+ to 3g, to 4g lte and very seldom edge..... Fyi happens as I'm at work so I'm stationary. Data works but kinda lags at times. Any thoughts as to why or what to do??? And I have tried ipv4/6 and just each respectively. Thanks in advance.

The stock lollipop Rom has an issue with syncing hangouts and gmail. In order to force sync,IPv6 is manually disabled every 1 minute. When that happens, your data connection resets, and you see your phone go up through the speed technologies.

This is probably what you seek, but a word of warning; I haven't tried any of this myself. I don't know whether this will work or break your phone. If I were trying to do this, I would probably just comment out that second line (put a '#' in front), but if you start getting sync problems, this will probably be why.

The thread you posted seems to,only refer to Wi-Fi issues and syncing.... I am not connected to Wi-Fi. I read that when they disconnect Wi-Fi there phones are fine with data..... Not sure I wanna delete anything like that off my phone when I'm not,sure off this will help. Of I went back to stock kk would I still have this issue?

Theoretically you won't still have this problem if you go back to KK. I haven't gone back to KK since I took the plunge into LP, so don't quote me on that. In fact, if you just install the stock LP ROM, you won't have this problem any more as well.
OR, you could install Jasmine 5.0, and then upgrade it to something like 5.0.7 or 5.0.8, which ever one was before the IPv6 fix started getting baked into the Rom. That's probably what I would do, but I haven't tried SkyDragon yet, so I don't know what I'm missing.

You'll have to follow the steps from the 5.0 post. Extract the files to /sdcard/ and then do some shell commands in TWRP. Takes you out of your comfort zone a little, but it worked for me.

Final build, did you say the or someone else that the .ftf R4C still didn't have the Stagefright patch? I do hope the final release has that patched and the new Stagefright 2 patch as well.
I have beta tested Winders/Linux and other software for years and the final release is well final, may be some bugs still but most are squashed and gone.

that's interesting so we could have had this all along. I thought kitkat didn't support advanced calling natively that's what I've read and I know our phones don't have dual radios so I don't get it I want to revert back to test it but I will take your work for it. Do you actually have 4g when on a call now. and can you use the Internet while on the phone.

We wouldn't have had this all along because in the my verizon app if you tried to add the advanced calling feature to a line with an xperia Z3v you'd get an error saying it wasn't a volte capable device. It referred you to a list of volte capable devices and the z3v wasn't on the list. I do however do not understand how advanced calling would work on kitkat.... for one thing they're missing proprietary libs for HD video calling as well as the apps and the IMS bootstrap to keep advanced calling on between reboots, but hey if it's working for people on Kitkat that's wonderful news, they deserve it. I'd take it as a good sign that they finally got around to adding volte in their systems, to me that says the OTA is greenlighted and we're just waiting on the beginning of the roll out. What's disappointing is that Verizon is giving us 5.0.2, but hey it's better than what we've had. I'm grateful.
I can confirm mine is working on 5.0.2.
Has anyone else been unable to mute calls that are not HD Voice?
Today I deactivated advanced calling. I believe it was causing excessive noise during Bluetooth calls. I never had Bluetooth issues before Lp and advanced calling. 4.4 was flawless for me

That's the lollipop part. The advanced calling is it's on tab in the OS settings.
Anyone else have issues with activating advanced calling. I select the HD calling in the settings. I get a message that indicates I already have HD calling and that I should restart my phone. Restart and same message pops up when I get a call that I don't have data while on a call.

Solution: had to delete HD calling from Verizon, waited over night then added HD calling from the settings menu. Don't know how many times I've added and removed advanced calling before but waiting seemed to do the trick.

How do i deactivate advanced calling. I have had tons of issues since activating it. I still get a message when i get calls saying no data available, i also cannot enter credit card numbers. I have not been able to successfully enter a card number even once since activating it, every time i am very careful an hit the right keys but it says thats not a working card. I have had no issues what so ever doing that before activation of advanced calling. Is there a way to remove or deactivate it completely or at all?

Just turn it off. There's a toggle in settings... If you're on lollipop.. Which if you're not, I guess you could do it in my verizon add remove features
Well i never actally turned any of the toggles on. I just activated advanced calling thru my verizon app. Since i activated it, i have not been able to enter a credit card number sucessullly, i know that advanced calling feature was the change that made my poblem. Becouse before activating it i never had an issue, but within a couple hours of activating it, i tried to enter my credit card number over phone call and every single time (ive tried so many times since the activation of advanced callig) every time it tells me sorry, thats not the right number. Ive tried with multiple cards, and the same result evey time. I just want to know, besides turnig off the toggles in settings( that i never used or turned to on). Is it possible to deactivate it thru verizon or delete it from my account. Can someone help me figure it out. It has been a huge inconveniance for me. The only toggles i have in settings are one for hd voice and one for video calling, and on above those 2 that is not labled and i figured was to turn advanced calling on or off. I never used it. When i first activated it ,it was done through my verizon app, an i didnt realize till reading more later on here , that there was section in settings for advanced calling. By that time i was already trying to remove it due to my card number entering issues, so i never turned any of the toggles on. Anyone know of anything that i could do to remove the feature completely.
I just found this. I haven't tried it yet.

Probably best to just manually flash the factory image in fastboot if you cannot tell which device is which.
If you've enabled navigation buttons, it appears that the task switching button no longer functions. Very annoying.

How are you toggling between the two? If neither one is on a call can each receive a call? Does the eSim manager menu look different?

Anybody using Total Wireless have wifi calling working on their LG V30?
Sent from my LG-H931 using Tapatalk
Is your sim card registered with TracFone for wifi calling? You can register it by searching for "TracFone e911 registration". I'd post the link but my account doesn't have enough posts to embed a url.
The last 4 digits you enter will be the last 4 of your sim card number. If the page tells you the card isn't eligible you might have to have them send you another sim card.
Yes, I have TW and Wifi calling and VOLTE are working fine on my VS996 Oreo install (I think it's 20k?). I did have to use some hacks with Shortcut Master to get this working, and I detailed them on the VS996 Oreo thread...

Got it figured out. Actually, just went by the steps I referenced in the previous post (ie, these steps: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/how-to/wtf-lg-v30-t3790500/post76613814#post76613814)
If you're on VS996, you don't have to install those apps, but I remembered that you DO need to have My Verizon installed and updated (not disabled, as I originally had it). Then follow the steps using Shortcut Master as noted on that post. To clarify a bit, I will rewrite those steps here, because a few minor things were missing in the steps when using Shortcut Master. I used v1.2.4 from APK mirror. Below I have copied in the steps, with my edits in [brackets]:
At this point, my phone showed the carrier cell number, which may mean I was all set, but I went on anyway...
After that, I went back to the phone's settings/networks page, and checked "Advanced Calling" and it said it was activated. I also tried a call from my Turbo to the V30 and it showed HD calling was working. Awesome!
@nnjimmy59 You could try those steps (you may need to install VS996 or use the files mentioned in the link above) to get it to work. Doesn't hurt to try!

Just to confirm. If you put it in airplane mode, and turn on wifi, you able to send text and mms? The reason I'm asking so much is because at my job I have very bad signal with Verizon and sometimes I get no signal. Total Wireless has such a good family plan for data, I might go back to them if this does indeed work.

Yes just tested this now. Airplane mode, turn on wifi, texted my wife via Google Messages. We're both on Oreo VS996.
However I did just try to make a call and it said that I need to activate wifi calling. Weird. I did tinker in these settings a few days ago so I may have broken something. I did confirm this once before so I know it worked, as I tested with another user here. I will have to revisit my instructions and see if that fixes it.
EDIT: Yup, calling works too. My Verizon hidden menu/vowifi was turned off for some reason. I used Shortcut Master to turn it back on, and completed a vowifi call to my wife's phone (while in airplane mode with wifi connected).
Remember, my instructions updated some of the links and locations you're looking for in SM... so be sure to find the right hidden menu items.
I didn't have to go further into LG IMS settings...
And to confirm we're both on TW.

Yes just tested this now. Airplane mode, turn on wifi, texted my wife via Google Messages. We're both on Oreo VS996.
However I did just try to make a call and it said that I need to activate wifi calling. Weird. I did tinker in these settings a few days ago so I may have broken something.

Well let me know if you can get this working on Pie. I have less than a week left to switch to Total Wireless before my next AT&T prepaid charge.

Well switch back to Total Wireless and can't figure out how to get it to activate Wifi-Calling. Hopefully you'll upgrade to Pie so your expert eyes can crack the code to get it working!

I have the same issue after switching my wife to TW and running your debloated ROM (which is nice and lean BTW).
@schwinn8 I can't find an option for Verizon Hidden Menu in Shortcut Master light. I have My Verizon enabled, but can't login due to having Total Wireless as my provider. Not sure if that's needed?

Correct, logging in is not necessary. Follow the instructions I provided before. In my post, I clarified which menus you need, so it should be clear (I don't remember it off the top of my head... that's why I posted it!)
Note, this may not work in Pie... I haven't switched or tried it there yet... I'm still on Oreo.

On Pie I couldn't get it to work, only wifi messaging. If your on my debloated rom, just download Verizon Message+ and run it and let it active. Test it, and if it works put it in airplane mode and turn wifi back on. It should text.
I then download Google Messages that will continue to work now through wifi.

Thanks, I'm mainly looking to get voice calls working over wifi though but I don't want to back her phone down to Oreo now that she's started using it.
Can anyone please verify if there is wifi calling on this phone. I live in an area with horrible reception so its somewhat important. Thanks in advance.
It is, and it works.
Using it currently on Movistar Spain

Thanks ardeban...I appreciate your feedback as I wasnt sure with the non global version whether that feature would be there. Thanks again.
Works in the UK on BT (EE).
Wait. How do I turn it on? I can't see it under options for my (US) T-Mobile SIM, but it worked perfectly on my old Fold.

It should be under Settings -> Mobile Network -> SIM 1 (or SIM 2) -> Wifi Calling -> On

Weirdly, I don't have that setting there, despite my previous phone (Fold 3) being happy to do Wifi calling.

I had assumed that the setting would always be there but greyed out if not supported by the network; but perhaps not! The phone definitely supports it as you can see.
I think this is sim dependent, based on my experience with other phones
It's very weird: Wifi calling is enabled on my SIM, works on my Samsung, but doesn't show up on my Find N.
Oh well...

Sorry can't help further; it does work for me in the UK on the BT (EE) network with the Find N (I have terrible network reception where I live also). Might be worth checking with your network provider to see if Wifi Calling is only enabled for certain phones on their network, and whether they can enable it for the Find N?

Did you ever find out why you couldn’t Use WI-FI calling? I am having the same issue, there isn’t the option for me to enable..
I found it wasn't working on ColorOS 12, but is on ColorOS 13 beta
We’re you able to get it downloaded onto your fold and work?

Yep. I had it listed as an update and it installed fine. Writing from it now and it hasn't missed a beat. Yet to notice any bugs
Thank you, now I guess I just need to get lucky in downloading the beta? Tried the download steps and it wont pop up. Any other ways tog eat it onto my fold?

I was already on ColorOS 13 developer preview 2, so I suspect this has something to do with it.. The problem is, 1 - The software needed to get DP2 is no longer available on the Oppo developer site. 2 - Most importantly, if you did manage to get your hands on a copy of DP2 and your version is already above 19 this wouldn't work anyway, as the process to install DP2 only worked on versions 19 and below..
