VoLTE still not showing after 1 month. Poco F3 here other users seemingly said able to receive VoLTE on this phone. Whyyy??? Gigaaaaa??

Btw, tried waiting on the chatting app, 0 reply. Tried sending feedback in, 0 reply too. Bravo.

I managed to activate my iMessage! This is how:

I switched to giga last week and my iMessage keeps showing me the message "Waiting for activation..." Some time I even get "failed to activate" message
I checked APN, log in log out of iCloud, uncounted time of shutdown and reboot, on and off airplane mode. Nothing work. I also contacted Apple support and they asked me to contact telco if international SMS is activated.

I almost give up and wanted to port out. So I tried one last thing: turn on Data Roaming and reboot. And immediately after I clicked OK for "Your carrier may charge for SMS messages used to activate FaceTime
and iMessage" popup, my iMessage is activated! 🥲

In short, I don't know if turning on data roaming really helped to activate iMessage. But you may give it a try and feedback. :)

Good, at least yours can activate

Previously before port out I did tried to turn on data roaming but failed to activate, even reset my iPhone (data roaming and reset part of the tips given when I google failed to activate iMessages).

The earlier pages of this thread some explain giga doesn’t support international sms as the reason.

dont think thats the reason of getting it working though cos i have a spare giga sim that didnt work as well previously on my spare iphone. just booted it up without doing anything suddenly it works too.
giga did something or fixed something probably. But is it reliable enough for me to recommend to my friends who's on iOs and require the use of imessage that the question!

sms got issues cannot send to no 72XXX for bank atm activation
I did sms to bank to activate credit card before. No problem.

I guess you call the bank hotline or activate by internet banking then.

anyway to feedback to them?

I don't have issues in the areas I use my phone with Giga
You can feedback via their chat or facebook page.
but if another telco works better for your area of usage, it will be more straightforward to just switch providers.

Anyone try their 5G package? It seems that the 5G network speed is even lower than 4G.
BTW I am using POCO F3. May be phone not supported?
