This guide will list the steps to enable VoLTE and VoWiFi without root. The Voice over LTE allows you to make and receive calls via carrier data [4G] whereas the Voice over WiFi enables the ability to do so on WiFi. These two have quickly become the preferred mode of communication over the traditional network calling for the masses. However, some OEMs decide to disable this functionality on their devices for reasons best known to them.
Fortunately, this restriction is just software-based and the hardware capability is still present. To remove this roadblock, you could take the help of the rooted ecosystem. However, this will then result in the SafetyNet and Play Integrity Tests failing, apart from a couple of additional drawbacks. So is there a way to get this job done? Well, there exists a nifty workaround using which you could enable VoLTE and VoWiFi without using root as well. And in this guide, we will show you how to do just that. Follow along.
How to Enable VoLTE and VoWiFi without Root
- Head over to Settings > About Phone > Tap on Build Number 7 times.
- This will enable the Developer Options. Now go to Settings > System.
- Then go to Developer Options and enable USB Debugging on your device.
- Once that is done, download and install the Shizuku app on your device.
- Then launch it and tap on Pairing under Start via Wireless Debugging.
- Now tap on Notification Options and enable All Shizuku Notifications.
- Now go back to the Shizuku app and tap on Developer Options.
- Then enable Wireless Debugging and tap on Wireless Debugging to access its menu.
- Now tap on Pair Device with Pairing code. You will get a six-digit code. Likewise, a Shizuku prompt will appear as well.
- Just type in that six-digit code in the Shizuku prompt and hit Enter. You will get a pairing success notification.
- Now go back to the Shizku app home page and tap Start.
- A command window will open for 3 seconds and then automatically close.
- Once that happens, you should get “Shizuku is running” message.
- This signifies that the setup is now complete and the app is up and running.
- Now download and install the Pixel IMS app from GitHub.
- Then launch it and you’ll get a Shizuku request, tap on Allow/Grant.

- Finally, restart your device and then enable VoLTE and VoWiFi from the device’s settings menu as well.
How to Verify if VoLTE and VoWiFi are Enabled?
Apart from the obvious check of trying to make a call via VoLTE or VoWiFi, you could also verify if this setting has been implemented or not via the two below methods:
Via Pixel IMS App
- Launch Pixel IMS and scroll to the IMS Status section.
- Make sure that it says IMS Status Registered.
- This would signify that both these features are up and running.

Via Dialer
- Bring up the Dialer and type in the below code:
*#*#4636#*#*
- Then go to Phone Information, tap on the overflow icon, and select IMS Service Status.
- The IMS Registration should now be shown as Registered.
