Does Fairphone 4 supports VoLTE ?

@stanwood thanks !
Nice to see Swiss users too

@AppLee No not yet Marius was working on it.

@stanwood I also live in Switzerland
I've got Fairphone 4 running 24.04-1.0 Beta 2 and my carrier is Yallo.4G VoLTE is turned on but is unfortunately not working.
In the Ubuntu Touch Docs ( https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/userguide/dailyuse/volte.html) one of the requrements is „Ubuntu Touch contains a VoLTE configuration for your carrier.„
Does anybody know how to create such a configuration?

I haven't seen it documented anywhere( or I'm blind
) but it looks like VoLTE was backported(?) to 20.04-OTA10. I did one call so far and did not see the "3g" downgrade in the status bar. And the cellular settings newly offer "Connection Type: 2G/3G/4G/5G" -
@Ben-LinuxMan My provider is Yallo too and the VoLTE is working on my LineageOS installation with the Fairphone 4.
For your information, I share below screenshots of the current Android APN confugurations. Maybe that could help you to set up VoLTE on Ubuntu Touch ?

@adorsaz
VoLTE is for Voice over LTE.
Sadly it has nothing to do with data or SMS and MMS setup.
4G (and 5G I believe) data works perfectly under Ubuntu Touch, same goes for SMS and MMS. -
Sorry for the idle question, but I have seen on this forum a post complaining that Volte was working yes, but there was no feedback for the call routing, in a word, the user was launching the call, waiting in a void, then suddently hearing the voice of the called person. It was not on a Fairphone, it was with a Volla 23 IIRC, but is this a generic problem with current Volte and Ubuntu Touch ?

I just made a call, I got the standard ringing until the other side picked up the phone
Though again, I'm not sure if the lack of a "3g" icon is proof enough that volte is actually workingsee follow up answer Cellular Settings -> Carrier & APN -> 4G calling (VoLTE) is available and enabled -

After a bit more testing it looks like that was a false positive
Yes, all the settings are there, but following this thread and calling gbus it seems that volte is not actually supported:$ cat /etc/ofono/binder.d/qti.conf [Settings] ExpectSlots = slot1 extPlugin = qti radioInterface = 1.4 [slot1] path = /ril_0 slot = 0$ gdbus call --system --dest org.ofono --object-path /ril_0 --method org.ofono.IpMultimediaSystem.GetProperties ({'Registered': <false>, 'Registration': <'auto'>, 'VoiceCapable': <false>, 'SmsCapable': <false>},)
