Enable WiFi calling - Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers

Hi,
I have been suffering to enable the WiFi calling on my Poco F1. I'm on the last beta ROM 9.1.24. I posted the same thing in MIUI forum, but no clear answer.
I tried these codes, but it didn't work also:
*#*#869434#*#* (vowifi)
I found a link here on XDA to enable this feature but it requires root :/
https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/how-to/guide-activate-vowifi-wlan-call-t3871263
My carrier supports the service, I tried my sim on other Samsung device, it worked. But for Pocophone, the options are greyed, can't turn them on as in the picture.
Is there any way to enable it without root?

It's the same as mine though still looking for the workarounds on this in 2020.

[Q] Is wifi hotspot standard Android feature?

My Nexus One has it enabled as a standard feature, but I understand it may be disable by the carrier.
If I get a sim-unlocked Android phone, can I count on wifi hotspot being available, or do I need to get a Nexus, root my phone, install custom firmware, or do other additional steps?
yes wifi hotspot is standard Android feature but the carrier can't turn it off except if the phone was locked already from the provider

Are there any ROMs with wi-fi calling?

Hey guys,
Currently running Lineage 14.1 and trying to enable Wifi calling. I've searched a lot and I can't find any Redmi Note 3 roms that specifically state that wi-fi calling works.
I have enabled it in my build.prop and it shows up under "Wireless and Networks" (it doesn't appear in search though).
Also dialling *#*#4636#*#* now allows me to toggle wi-fi calling. When I go IMS Status it shows that VoLTE is active, but never wi-fi calls.
I'm on Three UK and wi-fi calling should work (with a Three branded phone).. But I hope I can get it to work on my RN3!
Anyone able to help?
Thanks
Try pure Nexus rom it states that WiFi calling is working
In nitrogen oreo build it's showing WiFi calling provisioned enable . Try this rom also.
Ps: never used wifi calling option

Sadly no. Pure Nexus doesn't have it. Everywhere you ask, someone will tell you to use your eyes and just search, no ROM has wifi calling working that I have tried.
I've tried updating build props and using Magisk fix and still nothing works.
I'm currently on Resurrection Remix with Radon and just settled on it for battery/stability..
Post if you find a ROM with this feature functioning properly.?

No longer able to turn on portable WiFi hotspot on phone

Hi I've looked and looked over this site and others and did not find a solution. I have had this phone STOCK NO MODS huawei 5x for about 1 year now (April)
kiw-l24
Kiw-l24c567b351
Emui-4.0
6.0.1
I have metro pcs as my carrier. I have had NO issues with Service or the phone till now. The phone was purchased new and unlocked.
My issue Is this. When going to TURN ON mobile hotspot under settings when I try to turn it on it gives me 2 pop up messages
1. Verifying Service authorization please wait
2. Then after the 1st message cycles it reads " There is a temporary network problem that is preventing the mobile hotspot function from being enabled. Please try again later"
I have never had issues with the hot spot and have not made changes to any settings that I am aware of.
I have called metro 4 times but had no luck with them. My plan includes hotspot and I'm not using any 3rd party app to use it. I've read that most phones will verify you have hot spot with your carrier and I assumed the issue may be with my plan. I have never changed it and called metro to verify I do have mobile hotspot. I think that's all the info I have at this time. Please let me know if there is more needed to try and resolve this. I appreciate your help.
Can some one at least tell me if this is a phone issue or a provider issue please?

Question Activating 5G in unsupported countries?

I know this might require root, which I am more than willing to do. But is there a process or a magisk module that can activate 5G on unsupported countries?
(btw im from PH)
Hey, still no way for the moment
Google geolocked it and EFSTool isn't working with tensor but devs are (i hope) working on it !
I'll try to find a way when i got anytime too
that's too bad. suddenly had no urge to root anymore :/
VoLTE is working fine and gives upto 200mbps which is good enough for internet to smartphone and hotspot. 5g will only make your battery consumption high.
Root is the only method the 4g VoLTE works and a lot of developers did their best to come up with the perfect magisk modules. So far so good but yes I understand how it feels when your handset is capable of 5g and google don't care.

Install the below module through Magisk and reboot (there are two of them, start with 0.4A and see if that works for you, if not, try the other one), then make sure to enable VoLTE in settings:
Releases ยท swangjang/Pixel-Redbull-Carrier-Patch
This is a Magisk module (in testing) for Pixel 4a (5G) and Pixel 5 that enables 5G for Unlisted Countries, VoLTE switches in the settings and add support for more countries/carriers. - swangjang/Pi...

Question Rooted Stock Image - Hot Spot Tethering, no internet connection is there any fix?

Hey I just reverted back to stock from Cherish OS, kept having way too many issues with the ROM rebooting or just freezing. I managed to get hotspot working on Cherish by editing the build prop to include:
net.tethering.noprovisioning=true
then pushing adb shell: settings put global tether_dun_required 0
Was working fine minus the crashes.
Now going back to stock I havnt had any unexpected crashes but I cannot seem to get the tethering to work anymore using magiskhide prop config. Does anyone know what else needs to be done to get wifi tethering working again? It looks like the DUN APN setting on my custom APN does not stick around after saving it, I dont know if it was enabled on Cherish OS somehow or what the difference between the two set ups would realistically be.
Edit:
Solution Provided by lentm:
"If you're rooted, try using VPN Hotspot: https://github.com/Mygod/VPNHotspot/releases"
Just enabled wlan0.
Still looking for a solution, If someone can point me to where I might need to start to resolve this I would appreciate it.
Ex; does it need a custom keneral? or Radio?
What is the limiting factor, that doesnt allow the connected device to get internet?
If you're rooted, try using VPN Hotspot: https://github.com/Mygod/VPNHotspot/releases
I can confirm the linked app works and replicates the built in Wifi Hotspot feature. I have it running on a T Mobile, bootloader unlocked, rooted, stock firmware, and on Android 11. Worked with my desktop, other phone, and Smart TV. I do not have it as a part of my plan. No VPN, port, or other nonsense to setup on the client to get it working. Just put in the WiFi spot password and off you go!.
Thanks for the link! I was never able to find a way to get the built in one working with out an app of some kind. I have no idea what would be needed to patch the factory hotspot to get it working without an app.

Great. BTW, I think the reason why it's recommended to use with the VPN (such as AdGuard) is to hide the tether usage.
I was a bit skeptical, but after I enabled the wlan0 toggle it worked! thank you soo much I have been struggling with this for a while.

Something to note here I wasn't using Adguard and had no issues with the hotspot vpn app. I wasn't using the "Temporary Hotspot" toggle in the app either. Using the wlan0 option gave me Internet on any device I tried while on T Mobile service / Towers. I went out of town and I'm now roaming on US Cellular indicated on my notification bar. This hotspot method stopped working for me. I could connect to the hotspot but no internet. After some research I found using Adguard does resolves this as you mentioned. In the VPN hotspot app you must choose "tun0" as the upstream interface.
