Mobile Carriers in the United States

Yeah that is same for me, it it temperamental! if you exit WiFi settings, go back exit, check Bluetooth etc eventually you should find it selectable 

So you're right on both counts. It was grayed out, but switching into other menus eventually made it clickable. When I enabled it, it behaved exactly as you anticipated; showed up just long enough to try to connect before cutting out and searching for known networks.


@rocket2nfinity I tried a couple calls just now on 4G only and they work both in and out (with audio). Under Modem Details it reads:

Modem Status
    Carrier                   Verizon
    Network Type       lte
    Signal Strength
    Network Status    Registered

So it seems promising! If there's anything else I can test, let me know!

Yes. Please type the following in terminal and tell me the output of the section under org.ofono.radiosettings and org.ofono.connection manager. I'm specifically looking for connection bearer info cs-preferred or ps-preferred and what bearer says under radio settings.

I want to caution you to scrub the IMEI, phone number, serial number and personal identifying info if you post the whole output here. Here is the command:

/usr/share/ofono/scripts/list-modems

I'm running debian+phosh and I think they actually removed ofono and are relying on ModemManager instead, so I've pulled out the results of mmcli -m 0 instead. The part I think is most relevant is the "carrier config" under Hardware that says "carrier config: hVoLTE-Verizon"

The full log is here. I've taken out everything I know to be personal information, but if you see anything else, please let me know!

Well I finally have my answer. The Pinephone can do VoLTE out of the box, and is already whitelisted with Verizon. Wow and congratulations.  Can you do me a favor - I'm not using Debian-phosh. Does it have any settings in network configuration to turn VoLTE on or off? Something like HD Voice, Enhanced LTE or just VoLTE? How about for WiFi calling?

VoLTE is not supported by any of the distros. It's only the modem that supports the feature. Same for Wifi calling. It's unlikely we'll be seeing support for that for a long time, as it's pretty complex as i hear, and it's also not a priority compared to other stuff.
