Also FYI my Xperia 1 iii is us variant . so cross flashing with SEA or Asian firmware ended up in no radio/ sim function. The oem files under the firmware are creating this issue. so unless its same model number different region can be flashed.
adb shell su -c setprop persist.dbg.volte_avail_ovr 1

adb shell su -c setprop persist.dbg.vt_avail_ovr 1

If you have changed MBN or EFS to your Kuwaiti carrier, please make a VoLTE menu with the above command.

I did flash the zip ,to enable the button but still , the volte ims is not Registered or volte doesnt show. I only changed the carrier policy xml file under policy-man folder. Since i never got any other efs files for volte. I do have a mbn file for the carrier but dont know how i can load that.
What all i did is :
1)tried to flash BC62 to BC
72 Sea firmware using newflasher, ended up with sim not able to activate.
2)Flashed only the modem from BC72 on BC62 using new flash still no volte ,but sim works.
3)Imported a carrier xml i edited from MBN file using notepad++ , and placed that in policyman folder got 5g but still no volte.
4) flashed the zip for volte button from your post and still no volte .
Sim has volte enabled , works on Samsung.

참고로 내 Xperia 1 iii은 미국 변종입니다. 例句你你你你会会店了了了了了了了了了了了了你了你吳你你各你了了你了了你了你各你了了你了你好了了了了了你了你各你了你各你了了了你你各你你各你了了了了各吳吳?? 님이 慈愛品. 이 펌웨어의 oem 파일은 제공하지 않습니다. ④ 서비스를 제공해야 합니다.

MBN 파일에서 efs 파일을 추출하려면 어떻게 해야 합니까? 아니면 그 MBN을 전화로 로드할 수 있습니까? 그리고 볼트용 efs 파일을 로드하려면 어떤 폴더가 필요합니까?
run root explorer

Mobile phone permission (no indication related to approval, please press the magicsk app)

As you watch the video above,

There is an oem.txt text file, the Kuwait MBN entry path is
It's missing, so you need to specify the path

Kuwait carrier files from PDC

can load

I am trying this on my xperia 5 ii now, Model XQ-AS52. I even did ' ADB REBOOT FTM' the phone only restarts and then adb shell and su , same not showing in PDC
setprop persist.usb.eng 1

Please try to work on another computer
go to developer options

Turn off and on debugging

right in my computer properties device manager

with multiple floating yellow exclamation marks

drives manually

Just grab it

among the yellow exclamation marks

Because I don't know which one is the connecting part

Please select a few targets and manually update them

Do you have teamviewer? I'm worried that there will be a lot of time difference from Korea, but if it's too difficult, please ask

Now volte, wifi calling and 5g works on xperia 1 iii and xperia 5 ii . Can confirm it should be working for even countries without MBN in firmware from sony and also can be reverted to non rooted and locked bootloader. Thanks a lot to htcmage, with his help this was done.

How? How can I do it without root and unlocking? I really need VoLTE. Idk why it isn't there while my carrier supports it. Telenor Hungary (from march it's Yettel HU), XQ-BC52. If it's an easier way, I'd flash the SEA firmware. Will it work with this version of 1 III?

I dont know if flashing sea firmware will work , since i had xperia 1 iii bc62 and xperia 5 ii bc52, i flashed both phones with their respective sea firmware and both i lost the sim capabilities literally. I took the long route, as htcmage explained in this post. With the extra steps as trying to find a phone based on the same snapdragon chipset available in the country and extracting the modem from that and with help of htcmage converting the mbn of the country iam at to EFS files.
Rest was just placing them in the corresponding folder using efs explorer.
To return back to stock then removed the root from magisk by uninstall and then flashed the original boot img to make double sure and at the end relocking bootloader. Since post android 12 there was no ota , iam not sure that works but i did get xperia apps to update from sony update center. And yes factory reset still did keep the efs files i uploaded to it same.

Hi,
Am from India and I bought Xperia 5III from au Japan(sim unlocked version modern num SOG05). Am able to get the network(sim detects jio carrier) and enable 4g data(internet service), but not able to call via VoLte. Tried following the steps from the thread but did not succeed. got stuck at step 2 itself..

when I flash the "magisk.img" am getting the below error.

C:\Users\mneelamana\Downloads\Sony Xperia\platform-tools_r33.0.1-windows\platform-tools>fastboot flash boot_a magisk.img
Sending 'boot_a' (98304 KB) OKAY [ 2.551s]
Writing 'boot_a' FAILED (remote: 'Flashing is not allowed in Lock State')
fastboot: error: Command failed

Would be helpful if someone guides me with this...

Thanks in Advance!!!

    I am happy with 4G as it is more than enough for my general usage.

    What I want Sony to basically fix is volte and WiFi calling as that is a deal breaker considering 3G network will be phased out.

    If Sony don't fix volte issue then certain countries will not be able to buy the upcoming Xperia phones as it will no longer be able to make calls.

    If it's available, it's good.

    Wi-Fi or data on.


    Log in various ways. Google, Sony accounts,


    Update the Play Store and...

    Various basic apps (Netflix)


    Update everything.


    And information on the bottom of the Play Store,

    It should say play protection certification.

    If you run the magisk manager app,


    If you check out the following,


    I reboot on my own.

    Screenshot_20211110-133621.png


    Reboot and run the manager app again.


    Please press "Remove the Magisk".

    Finished.



    It's easy to use.



    Netflix is also on PlayStore.

    It'll be updated normally.

    root
    If you maintain the route,

    I change my font or record on the phone.

    When you do the whole gesture, remove the bottom white stick.

    That's one of the advantages.
