Magic 6 coming out already and our telcos still haven't figured it out sigh..
Should complain to Honor to allow a force enable volte/vowifi mode like Xiaomi instead (carrier check disabled).
Anyway Honor Magic 6 Pro is coming out, will have their ex-parent company killer feature, satellite calling.

M1 VoLTE not enabled for Magic 5 Pro yet.
People like me on Singtel wait until neck so long still no news of support...now new phones are launching....SD8G3. Hope the same thing won't happen with magic 6.

Update:
They just reached out said end Jan 2024, they will provide VoLTE support for Singtel and M1.

Update 7.1.0.197 is out. Shows volte logo in status bar on singtel network
Thank you for the heads up. I have VoLTE with Singtel now. It comes with a Music Player too. But I cannot figure out how to set the Torch shortcut.

Dear user, this update adds Torch shortcut, music player on device, time watermarks, HONOR Frame, Smart Suggestions to switch on or turn off custom editing, and ringtone separation fuction, optimizes Notification Center, user experience of swipe-down status bar, enhances the system stablility and incorporates security patches. We recommend you to update.

Not sure if its the quick launch feature for the torch that they added. Didnt notice it before in the settings. Can double tap volume down button to turn on/off the torch when the screen is off

Settings -> shorcuts & gestures -> quick launch

How's the frequency of updates for this phone? I read that honor gives monthly security updates for this phone, is it consistent?

About a month to a month and a half. The last update before this was Nov 2023. Now Dec 2023.

Me on Singtel SIM 1 don't have leh
Is it the latest firmware? I tried to update but it showed me that my version was the latest. I clicked the three dots on the top right hand and chose Tryout version, then the latest firmware 7.1.0.197 started downloading and after the update, volte automatically available.

Otherwise go to Mobile Networks>mobile data> and then enable Volte calls.
