Hello everyone,
Im sure someone can confirm what i have found from searching.
That the inspire unlocked will ONLY have edge capabilities due to a hardware limitation?
Reason why I ask, is b.c i just rooted,unlocked, and im only getting Edge.
Can anyone confirm this, or push me in the right direction to making the network be like it should in 4G or H?
Thanks.
You have something wired happening as rooting/unlocking does not limit the phone to edge.
On tmobile in the US or in a country that has different 3g band than at&t.

Nope worked just fine when it was at&t at 4g and H.
I called tmobile and they have also confirmed that the phone unlocked on t-mobile will only be EDGE due to hardware issues.
Im still looking into it...
Thanks for your input.

This is the HTC inspire that was being used on USA at&t, but i unlocked it and rooted, and it works great on t-mobile, just only limited to EDGE.
Thanks.

People in this forum have been saying that the I4G and DHD have the same hardware,so this is confirmation that the date signal receiver in I4G is different than DHD and no radio,software can allow the I4G from receiving 2100 frequency?
Can someone comfirm this?

You are absolutely correct about no being able to change frequencies. If your carrier is T-Mobile, why don't you get the HTC Sensation?

would love to get sensation.but i jus upgraded to inspire.maybe a few months later.....
besides,i like tinkering with this version of dhd for a little longer,while waiting for sensation to have a cm7 rom...
I have a feeling I know the answer to this, but is there any way to enable VoLTE on the unlocked version, notably on the Rogers network in Canada?
Thanks

Ok thanks. That would be a yes on all of those (as it worked on my GS7 quite well) so is it just an option in the settings? If so I can't find it..?

Settings-->More-->Mobile network-->VoLTE calls. Enable that. If LTE stays connected when making a call you have VoLTE.

Thanks but that's what I originally feared: there is no VoLTE option anywhere in there..? I had done a search too and nothing pops up.
Rummaging through the internet, I found an article saying the unlocked version (mine) would NOT have VoLTE. No sure how accurate that was.

Are you connected to Wind by any chance? I don't think that network has volte yet. I think Rogers purchased them.
No, I'm on Rogers and I can confirm I had VoLTE before on my Galaxy S7, so it's neither the network or my account the issue.

Very weird. Maybe ask your carrier to check provisioning for your device. What bands does your carrier use for VoLTE?
it should be supported bu carrier it self , not only the phone ! check with them !
Well after some investigating, I have an answer: Rogers only support VoLTE on Apple, LG and Samsung devices...
This is really unfortunate but it's one last thing missing from the Honor 8 to make it my daily driver. It's an excellent device and I was very impressed for the price tag, but not having wireless charging, VoLTE and 4k video made me realize how much I actually use it.
Thanks for the help guys!

U11 does not support VoLTE on AT&T
U11 does not support WiFi-Calling on AT&T
U11 does not support Video Call on AT&T
U11 does not support Integrated Visual Voicemail on messages app like it use to on HTC One M7, M8 & M9, you need the stand alone app which is crap...
the phone works for calls data LTE works MMS haven't test yet I don't use them....
Topic: General
Is VoLTE band used by AT&T suppoeted by the U11 and is it available in your area?
Was Wifi Calling verified to be working on your Wifi network on other devices? If it is then could be a faulty software glitch. If not the it could be a blocked port or their service is down.
I'd contact HTC and AT&T and ask them for clarification. HTC had to do testing with AT&T and gotten the approval from them to claim compatibility.
As far Video Calling, that sounds more like a third-party app feature then HTC. I've never known HTC dialer app to support anything like that.
You might have done all of this, but your post doesn't have any thing to show investigations or troubleshooting. Just a rant post.
Help future users out by having details and things that were tried etc.

Volte was working fine on my HTC 10 video call and Wi-Fi calling is been introducedon newest devices on AT&T since galaxy note 4 edge with is couple of years old and it does support both features
Sent from my HTC U11 using XDA Labs
I had my suspicions about this as well. An HTC rep told me directly that the U11 is certified to work with AT&T's VoLTE and Wifi Calling. Of course, when they told me that, I turned it around with something along the lines of "Yeah, I know it will support it from a hardware perspective, but AT&T only allows certain approved devices to use those features. Can you say with 100% certainty that the unlocked U11 will actually be allowed to take advantages of those features?" They responded that it would... 100% I still don't believe it, though, and I have a feeling I'll be sending my U11 back within the return period.
All of the same confirmed here.. no wifi calling or VoLTE.. as well as no Band 30 support. What a pain. On AT&T that is.. works fine on TMO.

This is really really sad. I was going to buy the U11 with my Discover card's 1st year double cash back (would have covered the whole cost) that rolls into my account at the end of August... Figured S-OFF / Locked may be available by then too. But after reading about VoLTE and WiFi calling not working on AT&T, I'm having 2nd thoughts. I live in NJ so WiFi calling really isn't super important (we have amazing LTE coverage just about everywhere) but neither working?? That's really super beat man.
I also saw posts on AndroidCentral reporting the same thing, so I believe you guys that this is a real problem. Thread was titled "Where is the WiFi Calling setting?" Although one user said that VoLTE was working on the U11 / AT&T, another verified it does not. As bassoprofundo so accurately explained to the CS rep at HTC, a guy on the other forum thread also referenced how the advanced calling features on the U Ultra, although "supported" by hardware, didn't actually work on AT&T either.
At least the HTC 10 was an awesome enough phone that I don't mind continuing to use it for the next year to come. But still, I hope HTC and AT&T collaborate and get this solved... which unfortunately sounds unlikely. I really like the U11 and I haven't even seen it in person yet.
Plus ViperU is already out. I WANTS.
I'm praying that AT&T / HTC surprises us!!!

Data on LTE is different than VoLTE {Voice Over LTE} basically is VoIP but on a LTE connection don't get things messed up LTE data indeed does work just no VoLTE that means you will not be able to talk and browse at the same time with LTE speeds but 4G does the same thing just on a different speed

I contacted Essential support and asked if the phone would support WiFi calling. They responded yes but to contact the carrier to make sure. I am currently on Verizon so I contacted Verizon and they said yes it did support WiFi calling. I was a bit skeptical but I had the agent verify the phone model number. Hopefully this is accurate. I finalized my pre-order right after.
I would take this for what its worth until we have the device in our hands and can make sure. I just thought I would share.
Chat Transcript
Verizon
Thank you for contacting the Verizon Wireless Chat Team regarding your device. How can we help you today?
You
I am thinking of buying the new Essential phone. I was wondering if it will support WiFi-Calling on Verizon
You
https://www.essential.com/
Verizon
That is a great question I will be glad to look into that for you today
You
It says it will support Verizon. I would like to know if it supports the WiFi Calling on Verizon. My signal is very poor at my house and work.
Verizon
Understood let me double check on the WiFi calling feature
You
thank you
Verizon
My pleasure
Verizon
I do see here that WiFi calling is supported so you will perfectly fine to utilize that feature with Verizon
You
WiFi Calling is supported on the Essential Phone? What else does it say about the Essential phone?
Verizon
I can only view tech reports so I do see that the WiFi calling is supported any other questions I would need them to be specif so that I can search
You
I am just trying to make sure we are talking about the same device.
You
I see the model listed as: Essential PH-1
You
is that the same thing you have?
Verizon
While following the link this is the newest unlocked android the device screen is pretty big yes this is the PH-1
You
ok.. Sounds good.. Thanks for your help.
Verizon
No problem at all, was there anything else that I could assist you with today?
You
Nope. All set.. Have a good one.
Wifi calling
Thank you for posting that...I was looking into this myself and emailed essential, and have not recieved a response yet. Now the question is... Yet this phone, or wait for pixel 2

I don't know how anyone could have an accurate spec sheet comparison for a phone that has not been officially announced yet. It would just be speculation and leaks, which are often wrong.
That aside, I think if one is inclined to compare this phone to the Pixel 2 (as I am), why not just wait? It will be announced soon and then you can make an actual comparison between the two phones. Also hopefully by then the other colors will be available (since I don't like the glossy black or white colors).
Unless you desparately need a new phone now, I don't see the harm in waiting.
Thanks for sharing, I'm on Verizon as well, and I just ordered my essential ph-1. Hope that rep is correct and not just blowing smoke, but at least now I can be optimistic!
So the word on the street from the first folks that got their phone is no WiFi calling for Verizon. If that is the case my phone will be going back.

Hopefully it gets certified soon. Only feature that doesn't work for me on Verizon is WiFi calling. I actually get a bar of LTE in my house so it is ok for now. My ribs iPhone gets no service just like my s8 and pixel. I'm actually shocked I get any service, nobody does where I live.
Visual voicemail won't work either.
Sent from my PH-1 using Tapatalk
I cannot get wifi calling or voicemail (either proper voicemail notification or visual voicemail to work) with Verizon. Everything else seems to work fine.
Does anyone know which default network we should use for Verizon to maximize signal and battery? I am in a fringe area so small differences in reception is a big deal.
Thanks in advance.

I'm not really sure what is involved in making this work, but it seems strange to do it for the new "standard" phones and not the current premium one. Maybe there will be some way to port it over? I'd love to have this working but I don't really want to downgrade my phone to do so.

Cool. I just ordered a XZ Premium of swappa. I'll give it a go for a bit until the V30 comes out.
I called T-Mobile and got the APN data seems to work pretty well. I get LTE signal now but I don't know if that includes VOLTE. I'm pretty noob with some of this, so I'm not sure how this all shakes down
The problem is when you make a call, it switches from LTE and changes to HSPA. You will run into problems when your area has no HSPA and full LTE. In that scenario, you will not be able to make calls.
Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
I was just on an extended back and forth with Sony Xperia support (3 different times today) and they assured me that the XZ Premium does indeed support wifi calling through T-Mobile US. Maybe they baked Volte into Oreo?
Unless it's baked into an upcoming update, this is not the case. I sold mine a few weeks ago, but it had Oero already and it didn't have wifi calling or VOLTE on T-Mobile.
