I’m using the following guide:

https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/converti...ersion.4365275/

I’m not sure if it’s against the forum rules to share the link to XDA above, if yes then admin please delete my post ya.

Bear in mind that you need to root your phone first. So you’ve to be very careful and there is a step that requires changing the phone’s SKU using a hex editor. If you’re unfamiliar with all these, you better don’t do it to avoid bricking your phone. Perform the conversion only if you’re technically comfortable to do it.

These are the SKUs for Pixel 7:
GVU6C - Global
G03Z5 - Japan

Disclaimer:
Research before acting.
The instructions require basic Linux/Android knowledge. You could brick your phone if you’re unsure what you're doing.
I can only confirm that this works on my phone. But I'm not responsible for anything that happens to yours. Use at your own risk.

Yes there is a magisk module in the same thread as well if you scroll further down but the owner of the module hasn't included the Pixel 7 into it yet. Only the pro model has been included.

Just look for any (30w and above) charger that supports PPS (Programmable Power Supply) protocol
My personal preferred 3rd party brands include Anker and Ugreen

Guys, I am using Pixel 7 Pro US version, I checked the settings VOLTE is on however I am not getting VoLTE when calling (LTE logo disappear when making calls)

Telco : Maxis

Is it related to my SIM card ?

Happened to me once a while.. just flipped Aeroplane Mode on and off will do the trick. On Hotlink prepaid by the way.

(Assuming your SIM card already activated with VoLTE and VoLTE working on another phone?)

Called Maxis , they say will provisions my number and I asked why it is not auto activated as stated in website ,they answer system glitch .

Then say need specify model and said Google pixel not supported, I simply give a model at the end (Samsung s22 ultra which I bought with maxis) and they say say will provisions base on the IMEI.

Now I really confuse haha

You mean all these while you used your phone line without VoLTE? Since 2022 already shut down many 3G sites. 2G calls are awful.

For those with an unlocked bootloader, Google pay won't work, at least on an unrooted Nov stable build for the GP7 pro. But funny thing is, on the Android 13 QPR Beta, it can be set up and works. Just tried it this morning.

And the beta also has the clear calling feature, but that should come out in a stable build soon i suppose.

Called Maxis last night and got them to activate volte for me and seems like it’s working now. Initially they kept saying just turn it on in the phone settings but after a few rounds of explaining to them that they have to activate it on their end, finally only they understood.

I think it's quite subjective because it depends a lot on the availability of the antennas/towers in that particular location. I'm in Melaka, so it may not be relevant to you if you're elsewhere. The best way for you to determine if the locations that you'll frequent most have the best signal strength is to ask your friends or colleagues who are also within the same location. For my case, I don't have much issues with signal strength in buildings/malls unless that area is relatively new, prolly without the antenna installed yet.

australia. got it $1036

they are having black friday sales now and heard the google store can price match the retailers + $300 google credit during black friday. that's a bargain
*
Just did this rclxm9.gif
But had to contact them via Live Chat a few times - to price match, to push for refund (in case they deny after the sales period)

Best part is...the google tax invoice is based on A$1299 sellling price, should be able to claim back GST (about A$118)
And I have A$300 Google Store credit now which will expire next year end November

Phone will be shipped to my friend's place and i won't be getting it till Jan doh.gif

Thanks for the reply. I have no doubt melaka has no problem with congestion. Enjoy your newly activated volte. Is vowifi available for you too?
