Vodafone 4G calling & Volte...Avoid

gunner786

Just to make people aware. I have seen alot of posts online where people are having problems with 4G calling/Volte on vodafoe. Truth is you cannot use them if you bought your phone from elsewhere. Only if you bought your phone from vodafone will it work.
They will make you reset your phone, force software updates and tear your hair out and waste your time but the 4g calling & volte is only enabled for phones bought direct from vodafone. Avoid if you use internet while on a call and bought your phone from elsewhere. Too many posts online with this problem. Avoid if you have a phone bought from elsewhere

Samsung?

Works just fine on my Samsung A54 & Flip6 bought direct from Samsung.

Did have grief with an A52s bought from O2, wouldn't work with Vodafone or Three, does seem that this may be a problem for some phones if bought from networks - they are often pre-firmwared-up. 

Just buy an iPhone, they always work.*

* I don't own an iPhone.

PHK

Works just fine on a Poco M6 Pro. Just put the SIM in and it worked. (Also on iPhone 12)

You're wrong, there are just some phones that don’t work, yours must be one of them.

Works fine on an iPhone 15 Pro Max bought from o2, a Samsung from Three and a different Samsung bought from Argos.

My last two Samsungs worked fine on Vodafone with 4G/Volte. No longer with them but only because of price.
