Working VoLTE reports, share your experience

@uxes said in Working VoLTE reports, share your experience:

after some months of using, i know that after start using volte, 4G internet sometimes stop working, maybe after call/sms only thing that helps is to disable/enable data in indicators (no reboot required)
Eric from poco reported that adding new APN may help

For those interested in activating VoLTE on the Poco X3, here are the steps I followed:

After enabling VoLTE, I noticed errors in the logs related to context 1 of ofono. To address this, I replaced this context with a new APN "Internet & MMS" using the commands available in /usr/share/ofono/scripts/.
I also removed an unused connection using ncli connection.

While I can't guarantee that these modifications are the solution, I haven't encountered any issues since.

It's important to note that after exiting airplane mode, the poco often struggles to reconnect to VoLTE without a reboot.

Is this thread only for working reports? cos it doesn't work for me, on either of my phones

@Caedem Yes, only what works, this thread will be useful if it makes it easier to choose a suitable device for those who absolutely need VoLTE.

I'm interested in trying this in the USA. I want to be sure of the model of the Note 9 Pro before I buy one. Is it the Global coverage model? I assume unlocked. (I've installed UT on a few phones and so I am experienced with the struggle to get a really unlocked used phone.) The 9S model is different and not working here, right?

Thank you.

I also have observed that, with volte off, phone range icon in indicators bar shows empty when in a call.
With volte on, phone icon shows full.

In both cases call works normally

This issue has to be reported to the porter(s) and/or maintainer(s) of the port.
You can find the gitlab repo on the device's page: https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/
Then you can comment or create the issue if it doesn't exist yet.

@Vlad-Nirky I've looked at a number of used phone sales sites and am unable to find a Xiaomi Redmi Note 9, that is in reasonable condition, that I could use here in the USA.

One popped up on Ebay and I've ordered it. I'll be able to participate now.
