You would be one of the first ones to try

The Pixel 6 method could work perhaps since they are both Shannons

Be sure to post results

Edit: this needs root

I am waiting for confirmation if 7 Pro will work in Slovakia and I will be purchasing immediately. 6 Pro does not support 5G/VoLTE/VoWiFi in my country without root.

There's no reason to believe Google will finally enable worldwide 5G on their phones. Google is not a real smartphone brand, Pixel line is probably a showcase. Therefore, they seem to lack interest on better developing it.

I am a longtime Google phone user (nexus5, pixel1, pixel3, pixel5). If I am able to use VoLTE in Hungary, I will order a pixel 7.
Please post it here whoever has experience regarding global VoLTE support!
Thx

Sorry to jump on this thread but I've got an unbranded and unlocked Pixel 7 Pro and I'm using a pay monthly Vodafone UK sim card. I'm unable to find the method of turning on WiFi calling which would presumably be included in the Network And Internet settings had I purchased the phone direct from Vodafone.

I'm rooted, Can someone let me know what would be the best way of getting this option activated? Is there a Magisk or Xposed/Lsposed module that may force it? Vodafone UK definitely support it, the same sim card had WiFi calling working on my unbranded Note 10 Plus.

how do you know that VoLTE is disabled? Expect the VoLTE toggle will be hidden... Are you seeing the device fallback to 3G when trying to make a 4G call?

When I'm at home, my signal in some locations of my house is virtually non-existent. Previously, on my Note 10 Plus with the same sim card, WiFi Calling was a toggle in the network settings and, when on, I would have a clear notification icon on the status bar showing WiFi calling was in use when the phone was struggling to get a signal. I get no such notification on the Pixel nor is there a toggle when I've read elsewhere there should be.

voLTE isn't a concern, it's WiFi calling I want for when I'm at home.

I have just one simple question for Google...why do they ship the phone to non-supported countries from their official Amazon store?
Like...if you ship...make sure all features work?

Its not that Google doesn't support everything. Mobile carrier also need to implement device-specific attributes.

Google removed the WiFi calling icon a while ago in an android update or at least made it less visible. Would expect a toggle for wifi calling though in your call settings though. might be if it's not yet enabled, it'll come in a software update

People in non-supported countries still want a pixel device... VoLTE support isn't cheap or easy and Pixel is still growing

    Play Poland
    VoLTE working
    No VoWiFi
    No 5G
    Orange Poland is working!
    I'm surprised how simply it went. One step at a time as per Shizuku's instuction. Switching the sliders in the Pixel IMS. Restarting and starting the Shizuku service via pc. Going into the phone settings and I see that connections via 4G and WiFi have appeared. Another reboot and launching the Shizuku service from pc. I then turn off WiFi and see the 4G+ icon. I turn on WiFi and make a call. And I am shocked. VoWifi and HDVoice is working!
    Phone without root. Pixel 7Pro. Orange Flex.

    I don't know why, but it does not work for me on my Pixel 7 with Slovak O2 carrier. I am able to do all steps without problems. But when I make the call, icon "HD" is not always shown, sometimes it is, sometimes it is not. It seems to work randomly. No idea why.
    This is because the numbers you are calling does not support hd voice or they are have VoLte off. I think it is normal.

    It works on lat st beta, just sometimes it needs a restart after a few days.

    I already sold Pixel, I bought S23Ultra, all features are out of the box.
    We all knew that. But we have Pixel, not S23 Ultra. If I want buy Samsung I will buy Samsung. I prefer Pixel more then S23

    I'm lucky and I live in supported country and I have all features out of the box.
