I use page plus cellular (shows up as Tracfone) who uses the Verizon network.

Verizon has permanently shutdown CDMA.
Calls now use voice over LTE.

I can not get phone calls to work.

Any ideas ?

Did you try another SIM or contacted the provider to have your device reprovisioned?

Data works for internet.
I always have the VoLTE turned on in LineageOS settings.

I did try removing SIM, reinserting SIM, and rebooting.

With DATA working OK, I do not think it is the SIM.

When I try to make a cell phone call
there is a delay of maybe 10 seconds
then the error displayed is.
"Mobile Network not available"

I think the LineageOS needs some changes for
PagePlusCellular (shows up as Tracfone)

I prefer continuing to use LineageOS
rather than go back to the last old
Google stock OS.

I might switch to Verizon prepaid (costs more than page plus cellular).

Are phone calls working on pixel xl lineageos latest version and Verizon ?

I installed Google dialer so I can use the */*/4636/*/* hidden menu

It says "emergency calls only."
Also said provisioned for volte

Does this mean I need to ask pageplus cellular for a new SIM card ?

Everything working fine so far except I installed the Google phone app but don't see call screening in the settings menu. It auto declined robo calls.

Did anybody have issues with not having any ringtones after installation?

I flashed the version 18.1 from 2022-10-19, and after sideloading I rebooted to recovery (not OS!), then sideloaded the MindTheGapps MindTheGapps-11.0.0-arm64-20220217_100228.zip

But now I have no ringtones or notification sounds installed.

Edit: I noticed that the system was finishing the setup (notification), after that all it good.
Hi I have this same issue with no sounds. I think I had it when I first installed but now I don't a few days later? Which setup are you referring to

There's no one maintaining these anymore and they're wayyyy out of date.

You must be new to computer programming.
Absolutely nothing works until it is tested and fixed where needed.
I've known this my entire IT career.


I will switch to another Verizon network provider, if correct function can be verified...by someone...anyone.

So I have a phone which currently can not do the basic function of a phone. No Calls and texts.

So, I am using Google voice on Verizon network LTE data.

I only get a good signal at home from Verizon network.

Maybe eventually someone will recommend a Verizon network provider (or verizon itself) that is known to work with this LineageOS pixel xl for volte calls and texts.

I will be patient and wait.

Dude lol, I'm the one that developed this, I'm the one who posted the OP, I tested this thoroughly, including on Verizon, we made the IMS stack match 1:1 with stock and matched up all of the missing bits and pieces.

It works, I tested it.

Thanks - so it works with a Verizon Sim card ?

If so, I will look into joining Verizon, though it costs more than Page plus

What I'm trying to convey to you - with this setup, and the way it is setup, if one of the carriers has functional VoLTE, the same routing is used, so anything that works on stock (VoLTE and Wifi Calling wise) will work here.

    IMS (VoLTE/Wi-Fi Calling) are fixed. Next build will have it remediated.

    Anyone know if the PixelExperience Android 11 based version for Marlin has functional VoLTE ?
    If theirs works, maybe ask them how they did it ?
    (I recently ordered an extra SIM to test this in my spare Marlin - already loaded with PixelExperience, but won't get it for a few more days).
    My daily driver has been running great on the official LineageOS based on android 10 for a year, but I don't want to mess with that.

    Please let me know cause I asked and no reply yet

    None of the Android 11 ROMs have a working IMS/VoLTE module. This includes Pixel Experience and Pixel Dust.

    Yes that I know. But if moto g6 can support fully android 11 why cant pixel xl? I know specs are different and moto g6 is not a/b partition.

    Just tested new Verizon SIM and CDMA -1xRTT only, NOT LTE for the Mobile Voice Network Type. bummed ! but not unexpected, after reading others comments.

    Ya im bummed after hearing this to since I am on verizon. But ya I expected it to not work as what been said over and over. But maybe one day. I guess lineage os 17.1 ftw.
    Collective response to all of these:

    IMS (VoLTE/VoWIFI) doesn't work on 11 ROMs for sailfish/marlin - not PE, not Lineage, not anything at the moment.

    Legacy devices have IMS die at some point usually - ours just broke sooner than expected.

    I hope to fix it someday, but given it's an old proprietary implementation with no documentation, the chances are low.

    G6 has more modern and compatible blobs to kang, and it _just to happens_ to work.

    Tl;DR: Chances IMS will every work for marlin above Android 10 are really, really low.
