Just wanted to share my experience with WiFi Calling. I am in the US on T-Mobile and WiFi calling has been working for me surprisingly. VoLTE has also been working wonderfully. I've tested this on a Global Mi 9 running Stock and the Xiaomi.eu rom.
Enter these codes into the Dialer to enable the options in Settings. (Settings < SIM Cards & mobile networks < Sim Card Settings < VoLTE Enabled/Make Calls using WLAN)
VoLTE *#*#86583#*#*
VoWIFI *#*#869434#*#*
Things should work after you enable the two options. This depends on whether or not your carrier supports it and your e911 address set (US only?).
Some issues you might run into is that the option for Network Preference is greyed out and you will unable to change that option. I've had some success if you disable it and re-enable it and click on that option really fast, it will go through. When you first enable VoWiFi, it is important that you get into this menu and change it to WiFi preferred or WiFi Calling won't work.
UPDATE:
Manually creating your carrier APN worked great for me. Been testing it for about 2 weeks and I haven't had any issues with VoLTE/VoWiFi. For example, for me on T-Mobile, I created a new one with the following settings. The important part I'm guessing is the APN type. Also make sure that your carrier has enabled WiFi Calling on their end as well.
APN: fast.t-mobile.com
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMC : 310
MNC: 260
APN type: default,supl,mms,ims,cbs
APN protocol: IPv4/IPv6
APN roaming protocol: IPv4/IPv6
On a side note, since you're on T-Mobile US, are you getting LTE+? I was showing LTE+ on my Mix 2S and Mi 8, but doesn't show up on my Mi 9.
Can verify, works with Chinese Mi 9 8GB 128GB version. I'm also on T-Mobile. Now there is "HD" written on the signal icon.

It does when I'm outside. RN it isn't showing tho, I'm in the basement. I'm pretty sure I've seen it before when I'm on the bus or something
Also works in Netherlands with Vodafone

Worked like a charm on Romania's Orange network. Both VoLTE and VoWiFi seem to work well.
Thank you for the tip.

It's a carrier specific option. So go to phone-> settings-> Sim cards &.....-> Orange and should be the last two options.
Hmm...I've activated both too but only get the volte option, no wifi calling toggle switch. Tmobile USA running no root, stock miui 10.2.3. Did anyone on tmobile USA get wifi calling to work? Also, if you did, does it also activate wifi texting?
Update: guessing the volte doesn't require a restart but wifi calling requires a restart. To those who run into the same prob as me.
Ídem here, no volte options, my carrier support it and works on a s7 edge, any ideas?

After update to Miui 10.2..24.0 options for VoLTE and VoWIFI appears in menu and i can activate both.
unlike you, since the last update 10.2.24.0 I lost the option volte/vowifi, when I try to reactivate it, the phone tell me it's enabled for the SIM 2 but I have no sim two,
if i swap the sim card it tell me activated for the sim 1 ...
Same here, after the new update 10.2.24.0 i have the same message like you.

I activated volte and wifi calling, but when I go on flight mode and activate wifi, wifi calling is not working and there is no sign in status bar too. I am Vodafone Germany and on my Samsung it was working.
How did you get it working?

Did a quick test on mine (T-Mobile/Germany) and it's working. I just used the dial-codes and enabled wifi calling. Had to change the preferred connection type to wifi-prio though - wasn''t working with cellular-prio and flight mode before.
It works!

Download a signal app from the Play Store and make a phone call. If you still have 4G when making the call Volte is working. If the signal drops to 3G after the call connects Volte is not working.

I did It and volte is not working...
I have a Mi 9 global version running the latest stable global Room. I'm trying to turn VOLTE on, but I'm nota being sucessfully.
I've tried enable It via MCC code (*#*#4636#*#*) but It doesnt work. The option to enable VOLTE os greyed out.
How can I enable It? My old s7 suport VOLTE with the same sim card.
Hi,
I am using Mate 20 Pro (LYA-L29) in US and the firmware is 232. I am pretty sure that my carrier (not U.S. carrier) supports VoWifi and I used it on this Mate 20 Pro before while I was not in U.S. After I moved to U.S., I also updated the firmware and the Wifi Calling option has gone since then. To double check what is the cause, I inserted this SIM card into an iPhone and Wifi calling was available and worked well. Therefore, I think it is a problem of this phone.
Does anyone encounter a similar problem?
Thanks!
Different networks operate WiFi calling in slightly different ways. I know that my Mate 9 didn't support WiFi calling in the US but has done in other places without issue.

I don't quite understand why wifi calling depends on the physical place. Say I set the phone to airplane mode and connect the phone to different wifi routers in different places. The wifi standard is always the same and the phone may not be able to tell where it is.
VoWiFi and VoLTE (WiFi and 4G calling) are network and handset dependant. If a particular network hasn't authorised a particular handset, or if that handset doesn't have the specific settings needed for a particular network; then VoWiFi and / or VoLTE won't work.
I installed "Network Cell Info" to check the status of Wifi Calling and the availability of Wifi Calling is No. I notice that the devices prior to mate 20 pro have a secret menu and there is a switch to turn on the availability of Wifi calling. However, the secret menu code does not work anymore in my mate 20 pro.
This is so fvcked that despite my carrier (from which I GOT THE DAMN PHONE) supporting VoWiFI (I had it working on my S7Edge before this) and despite VoLTE working on my Mate 20P, they just won't enable it on Mate 20P.
Guess what...it DOES work on P20/30 Pro, from day 1. Go figure.
Also...got a SIM from a different carrier...bam, VoWiFi working on mate 20P.
This is madness....I'm running out of hair to pull.
PS I went as far as installing Nova launcher so I can create a widget to ENABLE VoWiFi (which normally does not show up in the Settings) but of course it does not do anything because the carrier did not enable it for the phone.
i have same problem in Israel carier
i have the volte switch but its not working.
other carier its worked automatically but their internet i cant watch youtube at 1080p

My situation is exactly the same. I have a switch for VoLTE but not for VoWifi. I also tried Nova launcher, but it did not work.
The strange thing is that the sim + mate 20 pro works in one place, but not in the US.
I really need WiFi Calling in order to reasonably use this phone for calls from my house due to a poor Network signal. There is no Wifi Calling option in Calls -> Settings or in Settings -> Network & internet -> Mobile network anywhere. Also when I do *#*#4636#*#* and go into Phone information Wifi Calling Provisioned option is grayed out.
Nope. Last time I saw wifi calling available was on the XZP. Wasn't an option for the XZ3, and still not an option for the Xperia 1. Try giving tmobile a call or maybe sony support and ask if they can add wifi calling support.

Which frimeware is that ? Is that US unbranded
Nope, no wifi calling for me. I originally had the J9110 model (international dual sim, hong kong) but i recently flashed it with the US firmware. No dice, unfortunately. But since changing to the US firmware, I now get VoLTE and group message in Android Messages. It's a start.
Ya VoLTE is working fine and appears as provisioned in the hidden menu. So it seems like I will have to do something similar to what I did on the XZ Premium in order to get WiFi Calling...but I will wait until there is a DRM backup process.

I see the same thing as you. How did you do it on the xz premium?
I had to root it and flash a zip that someone made for it, it might be possible to use the same zip but I'm not going to root mine until there is a DRM backup method. I barely every talk on the phone without LTE service so it's more so just really annoying not having WiFi Calling. I think a bunch of people were using the same zip for the 2017/2018 xperia phones to get it working.
I have XZ premium and XZ1 and wifi calling option is displayed when I use the Jio sim but not displayed when using Airtel sim (using Airtel broadband), so our phones do have wifi calling facility but working only with Jio sim, although Sony is not shown in the compatible phones list. I am in India.
That also stresses me out on My Xperia 5. Don't know If You talked about My Zips for VoLTE and the other Features but i didn't get it to work actually on Android 10. Possible that i just don't have the right Firmware atm (Customized EU / My Devices Firmware isn't Out yet), so i'm using Custom UK Firmware but that should also work... I'm a bit confused so i switched to GSIs which Made it even worse... Looks like we should start making Custom Vendors for our Xperias since the Methods changed over Android 7-8-9-10
Can you flash the dual sim model to work with a single sim firmware and does Wi-fi Calling Work later?
yes, that's what i did with my xz3. volte works with tmobile, but not att.
I was in an area with no tmobile network and was not able to use the wifi calling and mobile texting. I tried using tmobiles APN without success.
Anyone able to get wifi calling working?
I am on Mui global 11.0.11.
Any 3rd party rom with wifi calling working?
Thanks!
Correct. It doesn't work. This has been discussed before and is known. There's no apparent way to activate it. You can "unlock" the sliders in the settings menu for both wifi calling and VoLTE, but neither one works.
Anyone roms with working wifi calling and text?
Wifi calling does work with my Curtana 9S global. I'm on EE in the UK, no special permissions required from my operator, same with VoLTE. Both worked straight out of the box. Note the wifi calling icon in screenshot.
The problem might be down to your carrier.

I'm not saying I trust their word, but I spent some time talking to T-Mobile tech support, and he assured me it was a software issue. Maybe he was lying, but I'm hoping with MIUI, we may see it work.

I'm in your exact situation. I also use T-Mobile. I also don't have a network preferences option. I unlocked both the wifi calling and the VoLTE option using the phone dialer codes that are posted on here somwhere. But neither seem to do anything as they are switched on. I'm inclined to believe that it IS IN FACT a software bug because I also have a Xiaomi Mi Note 10 using the same exact software (MIUI) and VoLTE and Wifi Calling work fine on that device.

I hope mui12 will solve this issue. I need wifi calling.
I have Tmo as well. I was unable to get volte/WiFi calling to work either with stock or on Havoc 3.7. The only alternative I came up with was to activate WiFi calling within google voice as a backup. WiFi calling worked through gvoice. I tested by removing my Tmo sim, and was able to make a call via WiFi only.
I believe it is a combination of both software and Tmo network configuration. Texting is also finicky always. However, gvoice is the only solution that I have come up with.
My previous phone, Umidigi, WiFi calling did work on stock firmware, but not on third party.
I've spent way too much time dealing with T-Mobile tech support trying to get wifi calling to work. I think it is a mix of both software and carrier interference. From what I gather, the crux of the issue is that your carrier has to approve IMS Registration. I don't believe there is a way to force it, unless someone would like to tell me I'm wrong.
I love this device, but it is becoming difficult to keep with Wifi calling unavailable as my coverage in my house is terrible.
Hello
I'm having this issue, I cannot enable volte. Vowifi is enabled and working fine. I have tried pretty much everything, the dial numbers etc.
I'm running stock miui global 12.2.7.
I'm posting a couple of screenshots, one is from the dial *#*#4636#*#* phone information and the other from network settings where volte toggle is nowhere to be found.
If you get 4G you have VOLTE. If you get 4G+ you have VOLTE-E. If your connection drops back to 3G in calls its because of either calling another network or the other phone is in a 3G area.

Hello and thanks for the reply.
The area I live in has mostly 5G coverage and when not available, 4G+ and 4G.
All I'm saying is I can't enable it as you can see in the screenshots. There's no option in the settings, and the option is unclickable in *#*#4636#*#* menu.
The Volte sign never shows in the status bar, and in the call history, I don't get the HD sign next to the names, only the WiFi - when the call is on VoWiFi. - which is logic, sign I can't get to turn it on.
Thanks in advance.
