IMS settings app? - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

Has anyone been able to get carrier features enabled on their unlocked S9+?
**Update: I got all my carrier features working. I just simply installed my carrier's userdata file. I used a modified version of Odin 3.13 to get everything working. So far so good.

I would like to know this as well. When I try to open IMS Settings I get permission denied through Nova or not found through shortcut master.

Intentionally locked out, it seems. The intent doesn't even work on my older S7 either (same package), so that's probably the wrong way to go about it anyway.

I thought one has to have root access to launch IMS Settings and make changes?

I was able to access it with no issues on my note 8 with the US unlocked firmware, stock, no root. I wonder why they changed it.

Same problem on my S8+ since the Oreo update

That might be the key there. I was on nougat on my Note 8 when I was able to access IMS Settings. Something must've changed in Oreo that now blocks it.

There's some interesting hidden settings in activity Settings.RadioInfo ("Phone info"). Any of that help?

That was a pretty cool page but doesnt quite offer what ims Settings offers. I was able to see ims status which was interesting.

On the unlocked note 8 I was able to enable video calling in the dialler. Not a huge deal but I was just curious if anyone had any luck getting to those settings.

That's from an app activity (intent), not from an app. You need an activity launcher or intent shortcut creator like "More Shortcuts" (free app) to launch activities directly. Be careful doing this as some activities will change settings without prompt and/or could impair the functionality of your device.

It doesn't show up for you in Phone settings directly?

Nope, and it didn't originally on the note 8. I had to enable it in the Ims settings. I might just switch back to the Verizon firmware. I'm not seeing a ton of advantages, for me, on the unlocked firmware. Are you on unlocked firmware with Verizon?

I am looking for enabling the VoLTE option under IMS Settings. It was working in Nougat. Mine is a Sprint branded Galaxy S8 phone (G950U) and carrier unlocked.
Is there any other way to enable VoLTE(through ADB or other means without root as earlier), so that the option would start appear under the Settings -> Mobile Networks section?
Thanks for your help.
