Thought some of you might find this article (and Google's response) interesting...

Some Pixel 6 users accuse Google of blocking 5G in multiple countries

Many Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro users are accusing Google of blocking connectivity features such as 5G and VoLTE in several countries.

So buy a phone that's sold in your market.

Except that google doesn't sell in a ton of markets/countries so we have to buy it from our neighbor country.
E.g. half of Europe is affected by this.

Can confirm that this module works and enabled VoLTE (still 4G data while in call) nad VoWifi (airplane mode on and made a call with wifi on ) in my case. Poland , Plus carrier.
Not sure about 5G cos not in 5G area now..

Edit: no 5G but it's carrier dependant I believe

I am still wondering:
Can anyone tell me how to read out the current values of all the parameters that get changed with the module?
So that I can revert to the original state in case the module breaks something.

Thanks!

I did it manually by modifying the file: /data/user_de/0/com.android.phone/files/carrierconfig-com.google.android.carrier-8932002100401134483-1365.xml
Just add below strings inside the <bundle></bundle>:

<boolean name="enhanced_4g_lte_on_by_default_bool" value="true" />
<boolean name="carrier_volte_available_bool" value="true" />
<boolean name="vendor_hide_volte_settng_ui" value="false" />
<boolean name="hide_lte_plus_data_icon_bool" value="false" />

Note: If you cannot edit this file directly in that folder (ofc you need root), just copy it to somewhere else then change it and copy it back to respective folder and give the permissions (-rw-------)

I couldnt find any option to enable 5G in that file, maybe someone in an allowed country could check if their file contains any 5G parameter inside?

None of those commands seems to be related to VoWiFi though?

Anyway, I added those commands but nothing has changed:

<boolean name="carrier_default_wfc_ims_enabled_bool" value="true" />
<boolean name="carrier_default_wfc_ims_roaming_enabled_bool" value="true" />
<boolean name="wifi_calls_can_be_hd_audio" value="false" />
<boolean name="enhanced_4g_lte_on_by_default_bool" value="true" />
<boolean name="carrier_volte_available_bool" value="true" />
<boolean name="vendor_hide_volte_settng_ui" value="false" />
<boolean name="hide_lte_plus_data_icon_bool" value="false" />

In dialer "*#*#4636#*#*" the option "VoLTE Provision" is greyed out but enabled.
Calls with SIM #1 (also used for data) show a "HD" icon.
Calls with SIM #2 (the one which is not used for data) do no show a "HD" icon.
Airplane mode with enabled WiFi does not allow me to do any calls.
SIM #2 shows an "VoLTE" Option in settings.
SIM #1 does not show an "VoLTE" Option in settings.

Everything is the same as without editing the carrier file. Nothing has changed.
So I reverted back to the stock carrier file.

i think this module broke on feb update, using on jan update no problem, but on feb update, when dialing *#*#4636#*#* ims is registered, but after calling become 3g

For me work this module for magisk (in attachment). It has also mbn files for many countries. As author say: "
A Magisk module (in testing) to enable 5G for Unlisted Countries, VoLTE switches in the settings and add support for more countries/carriers. VoLTE still won't work if there is no specific VoTLE mbn file for your carrier.". You can try it, if volte.zip module does not work.

I have downloaded and checked that my carrier is included, but I still can´t get VoLTE after installing it through magisk. Is there anything else that has to be done other than just installing it and reboot?

 

[zalex32]

Tested in Mexico with Pillofon/Diri. It worked perfectly, I can now make calls with voLTE!
Is there any way to keep it if I uninstall Magisk? I am having problems with my bank app.

Did you tried with a sim card from Telcel or At&t to see if VoLTE works?

 

[fuadhdmini]

I had already posted this somewhere inside a thread but many people still keep asking the same question.
Attached is a simple Magisk module to enable VoLTE if it is not enabled for your country/carrier.

I don't guarantee that it will work for everybody ... it did work for me though ...

Of course you must be rooted and have Magisk.

Just install attached module in Magisk, then reboot.

The mod has properties for 5G and VoWifi ... BUT absolutely no guarantee here!!!
I do not have 5G and I do not have VoWIFI ... so I cannot even test if these properties do anything or not.

How to check if this is working?
BEFORE installing the module, go to dialer, type *#*#4636#*#*
Select: Phone info, you will see a screen like the screenshot attached below.
Check the line called: 'VoLTE-registration', if the radio button if OFF, you do NOT have VoLTE.

Now install the module, reboot and check the same screen again. If all is well, the radio button for VoLTE-registration should now be ON.

Finally, go to the dialer, dial your voice mail. Your data icon the the statusbar should still be LTE(+)/4G(+). If that is the case you now have VoLTE.

If it does not work for you ... bad luck ... just un-install the module in Magisk.

Cool. it it possible to have voLTE or voWiFi icon shown up next to signal bar? I see the icons appears in Evolution X rom for this device, just wonder if can have that also with stock

cool. what about having voLTE or voWiFi icon next to signal bar?

 

[fuadhdmini]

So there have been users from China claiming getting 5G just by using this module. The reports are from Telegram group for Pixel 6 5G unlock bounty. Anyone else managed to test?

 

[Dexer125]

Hi, VoLTE and 5G is not working on A13 with this module. Any ideas?

 

[kakashi_ax]

Installed the module and have volte working in my pixel 6a, wifi calling isn't working doe

 

[bluegatar]
