Guide to enable VoLTE

1. Download these 4 files:
QPST (Install on PC) - https://qpsttool.com/qpst-tool-v2-7-474

Qualcomm Driver (Install on PC, select WWAN option) - https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=11410963190603864074

Oneplus logkit (Install on phone) - https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4763657&d=1558542807

2. Install the files as mentioned on PC/Phone

6. Launch PDC Software on your PC

7. Select the Qualcomm WWAN Adapter




8. Right Click "Oversea-Commercial_DS", deactivate Sub0/Sub1 (Sub0 is SIM1, Sub1 is SIM2)



For me, M1 sim is in Sub0, so i only deactivate Sub0

9. Scroll down, and find and Right Click India-VoLTE-Vodafone > Set SetSelectedConfig > Sub0/Sub1



10. Once done, click on the Activate button below to activate the VoLTE Profile



11. Reboot your phone

12. Go to your Settings Wi-Fi & Internet > SIM & network > SIM 1/2 > Toggle on VoLTE

13. If everything is successful, the VoLTE icon will appear on status bar




Disclaimer: Try it on your own risk, dont claim from me if your phone up lorry

I couldnt dload the QPSt tool linked in the post so I dloaded new QPST tool from HERE. Worked for me.

WARNING! @Gixxerfied mentioned the following side effect from doing above. But doesn't seem to affect the Nord.

Spoiler

Just chime in. Changing the profile will enable volte etc etc but if you are gonna sent sms text to those 5 digits number to sign up for maybe cc promo, the sms won't go thru.

Did the same thing for my op6t to enable volte for tpg card last time(which also allows me to call/sms), found out I couldn't send those short number sms..

No workaround sadly..

I had to remove sim, plug into an old BB i have lying around and send out those sms



sms like this..

SMS YOLOULTRA<space>NRIC to 77862.

Spoiler

Looks like its not an issue on the Nord. Both circles & MyRep sms went through.

Oh yes ur right! Didn’t realise it was the 30th...

 

[ThinkMe]

Did they like make TV shows out of it?

 

[minuteez]

*sigh* thats exactly what they did. 10 min documentary showing the project team arguing at meetings.

To be continued 7 July.

Only thing confirmed is that its called OnePlus Nord and I think this is what it looks like.

 

[xonix]

Confirmed pill-shaped cutout liao...

Why couldn't they do a single ultrawide front cam and crop in if not need UW...

Specs leaked online. Seems like launch 21 Jul. No mention of sg as one of markets getting it at launch.

If the pricing accurate, Mi Note 10 looks like better choice if you want camera. This phone if you want 90hz screen.

If you buy this phone, no need buy case, just keep in the box. Supposed to be sturdy

Official OP7t prices not dropping much Online sales I see at most 699 for local set, before vouchers. Shoppee good place to camp but have to wait for next big sale & hope for big voucher .

Export set consistently 650 & below before vouchers. Online also.

If no rush, can wait for more info on this device. We dont know if we gonna get the device at launch also.

[xKazeolus]

 

[garychengjw]

[Fellowes]

seems like they focusing more in Euro/UK.

After so many years OnePlus still cannot launch phone globally in all nations which is quite sad. They didn’t even focus on Asia region properly except China and India.
