Can't make or receive calls

ravachol

@Keneda It was Android 11.

Is there some whitelisting or something that the carrier must do for it to work?

Ok I found this:

"How do I know if VoLTE is working?
For VoLTE to work, the following conditions have to be met:

Your phone supports VoLTE on Ubuntu Touch.

Your carrier and your SIM card supports VoLTE.

Ubuntu Touch contains a VoLTE configuration for your carrier.

If the conditions are met, and the phone successfully establishes a VoLTE connection, the VoLTE logo will appear after your carrier name in the Network indicator."

My phone does not have the VoLTE logo so I guess, Ubuntu Touch does not contain a VoLTE configuration for my carrier. Does anyone know where I can access a list of supported carriers?

I had the same problem as you on a pixel 3A but on Tele2.
Because the sms/mms works means that you have VoLte on the phone. Here comes the problem, you are missing Emergance Calls over VoLte and your phone is blocked from making any phonecalls both incomming and outgoing.

Internet and sms/mms still works on the phone.

I don't know if it is a missing feature that needs to be implemented in UT or it is a limitation in the hardware.

@ravachol
Did phonecalls work when the phone was on Fairphone OS/Android?

@Rondarius

Did phonecalls work when the phone was on Fairphone OS/Android?

I don't know because I installed Ubuntu Touch first thing I did.

I tried calling 112 and it worked actually, I got a tone. Just normal calls don't.

@ravachol
I suspect that there is something wrong with the apn settings. Do you have one apn for internet and one for sms?

ravachol

@Rondarius

My APN settings look like this:

3 (enabled)
Internet and MMS

3 SE MMS (disabled)
MMS

Both settings are the same however, and enabling the second one doesn't make a difference.

APN
data.tre.se

MMSC
https://mms.tre.se

Proxy
mmsproxy.tre.se

Proxy Port
7899

Username
Blank

Password
Blank

I can press + and there is a third setting for LTE there, but I enter data there and press the checkmark, but it is not added to the list.

@ravachol
Make the first one only internet
And reboot the phone.

ravachol

@Rondarius I've done that many times.

I also tried enabling ims by running:

sudo ./activate-context 3
sudo systemctl restart ofono

but ofono set's it back to disabled when it activates.

These are the settings:

[ /ril_0/context3 ]
Name = IMS
Active = 0
Preferred = 0
Type = ims
Protocol = dual
AccessPointName = ims
Username =
Passord =
AuthenticationMethod = any
Settings = { }
IPv6.Settings = { }

I think I need to change carrier or maybe swedish carriers aren't supported by ubuntu touch.

@Rondarius I didn't understand you at first. I did what you suggested and calls still don't work.

Rondarius

@ravachol
The sad thing is that it is a hit and miss with the carriers.
Tele2 had working calls, sms, mms on pixel 3a before VoLte. I had to figure out the right apn settings because the recommended settings just worked halfway.
Check if there exists other values for the apn settings.

ravachol

@Rondarius I managed to change the AccessPointName to ims.tre.se (data.tre.se gave an error)

Then set it to active. But when i run systemctl restart ofono it gets set to active = 0 again.

My guess is my carrier is rejecting the connection after which ofono disables it again. Or something like that.

@ravachol
Have you contacted Tre to see if the phone is blocked in some way?

ravachol

@Rondarius Yes, they were going to check and get back to me.
