Enable Pixel Call Screening outside United States

[androidified]

Hi, is it anyway possible to enable Pixel 3's Call Screening feature for the Pixel 3 devices outside United States? Has anyone done it successfully?
Sometime back I read a reddit post that someone managed to get it working in Canada. Is it possible to make it work?

It's hit and miss and requires editing buildprop I think. You'd have to Google "enable calls screening outside USA" and xda had a tutorial that worked for some folks . Let me know if you get it

Use a file explorer with root access and open /data/data/com.google.android.dialer/shared_prefs/dialer_phenotype_flags.xml

Edit these values to true:
"__data_rollout__SpeakEasy.CallScreenOnPixelOneAndTwoRollout__launched__"
"G__speak_easy_bypass_locale_check"
"__data_rollout__SpeakEasy.OverrideUSLocaleCheckRollout__launched__"
"G__enable_speakeasy_details"
"G__speak_easy_enabled"

Works on my Pixel 3 outside US.

This isn't available on other devices? I am using Arrow OS pie build and I didn't find the phenotype file inside the shared pref folder.
Edit: I have found the folder with the file but there are no statements which I can set to true.
Edit 2: You need to make call to get all the statements. I turned every given statement true but couldn't find one statement. The one which enabled Call Screen outside USA. It is something like __data__rollout but I can't remember the exact statement.
Any help would be appreciated.

Guys,

Please advise. Thanks.

Australian Pixel 3a, Google Bought. Default Language is US English

I do not have these in the dialer_phenotype_flags.xml file
<boolean name="__data_rollout__SpeakEasy.CallScreenOnPixelOneAndTwoRollout__launched__" value="false" />
<boolean name="__data_rollout__SpeakEasy.OverrideUSLocaleCheckRollout__launched__" value="false" />

However I do have these and have changed them to "true"
<boolean name="G__enable_speakeasy_details" value="false" />
<boolean name="G__speak_easy_bypass_locale_check" value="false" />
<boolean name="G__speak_easy_enabled" value="false" />


Are the ones I currently do not have, required in order to use call screening?

No. They've changed since they've rolled out call screening to Canada and some other phone models. Those should suffice. Create a backup of your unedited xml just on case, change those values to true, reboot and then see if it worked or not.

I was able to turn on call screening. But when I press the call screen button. The person who called me doesn't hear the Google assistant speaking.
