3 Months Until The End Of The Year Still No Word On If VOLTE Will Be Enabled On TMobile
Please tell us some basic information before asking for help:
- Model Name: Zenfone 6
- Firmware Version:
- Rooted or not:
- Frequency of Occurrence:
- APP Name & APP Version (If your issue relates to the app):
In addition to information above, please also provide as much details as you can, e.g., using scenario, what troubleshooting you've already done, screenshot, etc.
========================================
Still no word or confirmation from Asus when all of us Zenfone 6 users will be forced to get a new phone once the new year begins what's going on? If it doesn't support volte on tmobile we have to get a new phone that does. It seems like Asus isn't commenting and it also seems like they won't be releasing the Zenfone 7 in america either. What is going on?

I am planning on buying a new phone when Black Friday sales come along. It is a shame. I really like this device, but if it can not communicate with my network it is worthless.
Same here, I truly love this phone, it's practically my dream phone but ultimately I need to be able to use it as a phone, and starting January that might become impossible, it's so annoying, my favorite phone will essentially become a small wifi only tablet unless if they enable volte
I know it has taken a long time and we still need you to be patient. We're still working on solving this. That's all I can say for now
Thanks for the feedback. Even an update like this every week or two to let us know that it isn't being ignored would be appreciated.
You guys literally were giving the same non-awnsers last year when we wanted VoLTE for the ROG 2. It's messed up. I have ZERO faith in Asus getting VoLTE natively on their US phones.
Meanwhile people looking for awnsers hit up XDA.
Today i stoped by my carrier to enable to vowifi-volte feature and allthough they did what was necesary i still dont have any of that. Same issue in Europe...???
Not sure if it is the same. In the US T-mobile and AT&T are saying that phones that don't support VoLTE will literally not work on their networks next year because they are turning off 3G access. If your location has 3G access I would assume you are still ok to have service.
So its the same issue but for a different reason... I still dont have vowifi too.
Hopefully this will get resolved quickly. I have no plans to leave T-Mobile or to go without a working phone. I will have to buy a new one in November if Asus let's me down.
Hope???
Hopefully they enable it for the 6 and the 7. I'd really like to get the 7 if I can
A little birdie told me that the beta Android 11 seems to activate VoLTE for T-mobile. I don't have it to confirm.
Someone else has also confirmed this to me on reddit. This is good news now I want to know if that coming to the 7 as well because I will buy it then lol
If they are selling it in the US I would say the odds are almost certain. I can't imagine they would enable it for the 6 and the rog3 but not the 7. The carriers forced their hand.
I don't have the answer, but since it should get another year of updates I would be very surprised if it doesn't get it but the Zen6 does. Probably not until Android 11 is released for your device. But, again, I have no internal knowledge but only common sense so hopefully it is correct.
I am going to give Asus two more months before I have to buy a new phone. That will be an annoying waste of money. The hardware in the Zen 6 is far from obsolete.
Interesting
Android 11 beta
Thanks for stealing my screenshot...
