AFAIK, Vodafone never supported WiFi Calling on the G5, but I wondered if that has changed over the past year or so? Does anyone have a G5 on Vodafone with WiFi calling, if so what ROM / Version of Android?
Thanks

I have an LG G5 which I Network unlocked as it originally came from the EE network and wanted to use it on the Three network.
One problem with this is that I can not use VOLTE as there is no setting available, and have been informed i would need a mobile purchased directly from Three.
Just checked for updates and it would seem Android 7.1.2 has arrived and is available for download.
Now I am using this phone on the Three network, will I receive a Three version of the software enabling the VOLTE? or will it be another EE firmware?
Many thanks

The phones models are different, you will only get the OTA's from it's origin service.
Hi
received my Mate 20 Pro 256GB Dual Sim from Trading Shenzen.
So far great device, but missing Wifi calling.
There is no option to activate in settings.
My phone details:
Modell: LYA-AL10
Build Nummer: 9.0.0.161(C00E155R1P20) GPU Turbo
So maybe i had to switch to another firmware.
Wondering in hiSuite: Got information there that i have the newest Developer Version?
So can some assist / help to get wifi calling?
Or is it possible to flash LYA-L29 to this device?
thanks
I've never had WiFi Calling on any Huawei phones running EMUI or Xiaomi phones running MIUI but I am in the United States. MIUI doesn't have any option for WiFi Calling but maybe EMUI does depending on region.
You have the Chinese hardware version so I don't think you will be able to flash any international firmware on it but your best bet to find out would be to contact FunkyHuawei.
In case you haven't heard of them FunkyHuawei is a paid service many Huawei owners use to flash firmware updates, rebrand their phones to different regions, obtain bootloader unlock codes, etc.
I'm not personally endorsing the service (although I have used it) but the person who runs FunkyHuawei would probably be in the best position to answer your question since he reverse engineers the software on Huawei phones and owns Chinese and international variants of the Mate 20 Pro.
Can’t go from China to Non-China
Hi I have the same problems (want to move from Chinese LYA-AL10 to a non-Chinese version such as LYA-L29 for instance).
I ask FunkyHuawei and they replied to me «*cannot go from China to Non-China*»
If someone still manage to do it, please let us know !
Cheers
I have the lya variant I picked up in Malaysia on vacation. WiFi calling does not work with my T-Mobile (US) SIM card. However it does work when I had a Malaysian Sim card in it. The option would show up in the sim settings. From what I read WiFi calling does not work outside of Asia.

It does work outside APAC...I'm in Canada and while my provider (Videotron) has NOT enabled VoLTE and VoWIFI for this phone, I borrowed a Rogers (other CDN provider) SIM and VoLTE and VoWIFI were available. The provider has to enable these features for a particular phone.
Please help needed. Moved with my family to USA, have three LG V30 H930 EU phones. Got Mint Mobile sims( T-mobile network) unfortunately very bad reception in the area, not receiving calls. Mint Mobile supports Wifi calling however cannot find that option in the phone.( updated to Pie). is there any easy option for beginners to get wifi calling? Only found @seadersn guide , but it looks a bit complicated for me. Guys, any other options out there?
Dear,
Apologies if I put the topic in the wrong place. I bought the LG V60 in a European web shop. (alza shop) But the problem arises with the 5G network the device simply does not have the option "5G network mode" There is only automatic and 2G 3G and LTE. I contacted LG myself and got the following answer.
"There are technical dependences here. These dependencies are different per country.
The V60 is 5G capable (for a limited number of bands though) but it does not work for all providers in all countries.
This depends on the V60 suffix as well. If 5G could not be fully tested for a specific provider it is sometimes switch off in software.
In the Netherlands for example 5G on V60 only works for the KPN provider at the moment (Android 10).
If you put in a different SIM card (so not KPN) the device will not show the 5G option.
This situation will change in the future with SW update"
Is there help here and does anyone have any information related to this? Has anyone had a problem like this and has solved it without waiting for the software update ?

Hi!
In Switzerland is the same: the v60 has 5g active only for swisscom operator. I have it now with yallo/sunrise network and it doesn't show any 5g option.
I tried to flash stock rom from poland but still no effect. Probably the limitation is on the radio part of the rom.
Maybe someone here with more knowledge could shed some light on what is the best approach to take...
I was wondering if just by simply unlock the bootloader (now possible on the european version of the v60) we could get a workaround for unlock the radio limitations...
Do newer Android phones in the UK allow WiFI calling on any provider as opposed to being locked to the original provider? I've heard that some Redmi phones are not locked to providers for WiFi calling, but wondered if it's now a general feature of newer phones / Android versions?
Thanks
