Not quite sure if all this is due to missing config files in /data/vendor/modem_config/mcfg_sw/generic/ @Ray-Ven Is there a file /data/vendor/modem_config/mcfg_sw/generic/EU/Vodafone/VoLTE/Germany/mcfg_sw.mbn on your phone?
I’ve got the file for Vodafone on LineageOS, but @AlphaElwedritsch already mentioned that VoLTE with Vodafone worked for him on a LOS 18 based ROM. I’m missing something similar for my provider Telefonica, so that leads me to the conclusion it could be the cause.
So we have to wait for any user of a rooted /e/os device to have a look. I tried to extract the files from the newest Fairphone image, but it seems they are getting generated in the install process (or are stored at some place I have not found yet).
Not really VoWiFi uses Wi-Fi 2.4GHz or 5GHz bands via the internet
VoLTE uses the network you buy into with your SIM card. In vague terms VoLTE means using the 4G protocols over a variety of frequencies via local masts.
LTE frequency bands, in the UK, range from 0.8Ghz up to 2.6Ghz
5G has two wide areas (not to be confused with 5Ghz Wi-Fi)
0.4Ghz to 7GHz ( with a range of bands, some overlapping with 4G and
Sure I was just wondering if there is any special urgency, that it should work is agreed😉
Just found this, maybe try again once everything was fixed by Vodafone
In the Vodafone Forum is a topic from 2019 stating the following. I remember vaguely for O2 I had ims APN in the past, and even if this is somehow obsolete, it might be worth it to check the APN
Aber da es bei mir trotzdem nicht angezeigt wird, hab ich weiter gesucht und bin auf die Info gestoßen, dass der IMS-Dienst “registriert” sein muss. Ich habe zwar den APN “ims” in den Einstellungen stehen,
or did you try to reset all Network entries to force the phone to re-register (Einstellungen-System-Optionen zum zurücksetzen) I would make Screenshots of the current APN before
IMS is parent technology for both VoLTE & VoWifi. VoWifi is just extension to existing VoLTE Service served by IMS Platform. IMS provides many functions related to SIP-based calling.
and as both are not working, it seems to be an IMS issue.
no, didn’t - I’ve checked my APN data. But probably I’ll try that one. I’m wondering if “normal” Android on FP4 is suffering from the same issue, too. Because there’s another FP4 /e/ complaining about the same issue I think it isn’t an APN problem and I’d like confirmation about that before
I’ve tried it out on FPOS and for me at least WoWIFI was working but didn’t work any longer after installing /e/OS on the same device with same eSIM.
Although VoLTE showed “available” on network test page there was no setting in network → advanced like “4G-Anrufe” or similar and there was no symbol for VoLTE when disabling wifi. So I’m not sure this worked on FPOS neither.
I’ve updated the gitlab bug report for /e/OS.
It seems to be clear, that this is a /e/ issue, neither a provider nor a lineage issue - so I filed a bugreport as mentioned above. Thank you for your help!
Probably u are suffering from this issue, too, and like to send an Email to /e/-support as well.
At the Gitlab page we wrote an email to help you to point developers into the right direction. Feel free to use it as a template.
Hey - was in contact with support/devels quite some time!
It works since 1.1-r-20220707201811-stable-FP4. There’s just no indicator for VoLTE or VoWifi, but I’d call this a feature - not a bug!
I’m glad the /e/ devels responded so fast as it took a few builds and logs to figure it out!
I’m sure they’ll roll it out until next month!
Well, actually I’d prefer to have some indication (and these indications can be turned off in settings if wanted, anyway).
But I agree that the main point is to have to functions fixed!
