WiFi Calling and VoLTE for Google Pixel

[skip501]

Does anyone have any information as to whether WiFi Calling and VoLTE will be supported on the Google Pixel? My Pixel is pretty much useless at home without these features. For a flagship, I am shocked that these features were not offered from the Pixel launch date.

I meant that VoLTE works for me since the last update.

Did you ever fix this problem? I'm having the same issue. If Enhanced LTE is on, no calls come through when on WiFi. If you learned anything new it will save me a lot of time. If you're still in the dark, I will call support and gather new information.

Good morning @Elmajian!

Welcome to our Community Forums! 

I know how annoying it can be when a feature like this inexplicably doesn't work. In this case, we'd like to check out your account as it's possible you have the WiFi Calling feature on your account even though the device itself isn't yet supported.

If you do have WiFi Calling enabled on the account, I can disable it for you and then we can test to see if that fixes this issue.

Please PM us @CommunityHelps for further support.

If you're not familiar with how to PM, please follow this link for instructions: http://communityforums.rogers.com/t5/blogs/blogarticlepage/blog-id/CommunityBlog/article-id/535

I spoke with my account rep (corporate client) who directed me to the our Tier 2 Enterprise technical support team who indicated that in their "database" that VoLTE is "TBD" for if it's supported (even though this page listed April 3rd as a supported date.) - http://communityforums.rogers.com/t5/forums/forumtopicpage/board-id/OSUpgrades/thread-id/1

What gives?

I purchased the Pixel XL as a replacement for the Note 7 and all the advertising said these features we're available. I soon found that this was not the case but getting Rogers to acknowledge their false advertising would be a waste of time since they don't care about customers they already have. I may switch to bell to get the Galaxy S80.

Hello @SWade

Yeah unfortunately it seems like they wanted to advertise them but never delivered until late or later.

Also what's a S80? Lol ( i know it's the S8( lol

Anyone else get the update for June 5 that's supposed to have VoLTE fixes yesterday. Nothing here yet.

[jefflessard]

Nothing here.

[Meowmix]

Hello @Mythen

Hmm it does state that it was supposed to be released yesterday. So i wonder if it's being held back due to a issue OR a slow release? I do know they go in phases for the releases of updates.

[Mythen]

I've had this phone since November and the updates have come like clockwork on the 5th of the month. Possible it got held back. Anyway to find out?

Just use  Skipsofts kit to sideload the OTA.

Link to the OTA download?

[Mythen]

Is there a reason the update has not been released yet?  Anyone from Rogers able to shed some light on this.  Google has already released the OTA.  and its specifically for rogers as well.

Any thoughts

7.1.2 (NKG47L, Jun 2017, T-Mobile, Fi carriers, and Rogers) is the one you want.

[Mythen]

Is there any reason Rogers has not released it yet. Just wondering if it will cause a problem

[SWade]

I have 7.1.2 but no sign of the WiFi calling in my phone settings.

Hey Community!

We have confirmed that the Google Pixel & Pixel XL update originally scheduled for a June 5th 2017 release date has been delayed as Google/HTC are awaiting regulatory approval for the update.

Thanks,

RogersDarrell

@RogersDarrell

Thanks for the update

[SWade]

Thanks. Please let us know if you hear of the release.

anyone else have issues receiving calls when wifi is on?  

I just got the pixel 2 days ago, and any time my wifi is on it takes 2 attempts to actually get the call to come through (did not have this problem on my last phone).  The first attempt you get a message stating the customer is not available, second attempt it comes through fine.  

Turning wifi off and no issues, the call comes through fine, turn it back on and get the "customer is not available" message. 

Is this somehow related to the pending VoLTE/Wifi calling feature?
