[Germany] SMS not sending with VoLTE enabled

The next time it appears, collect the logs following this tutorial.

#3

thanks, I’ve gone through the procedure right now. What part of the logs can I post without worrying about privacy?

#4

One additional thing: some people report similar problems with VoLTE – I haven’t switched that on manually, but I also don’t know if it is on or off: is there a way to see that?

#5

It is a toggle button added to Settings → System → Mobile network → 4G calling (beta)

#6

yes, it seems that I had this toggled “on”, and switching it off this made it work again. Thanks, saved my day!

#7

I would not call it as solution, but workaround. We need VoLTE on majority of networks nowadays.

thx for the thread. Just had the same problem after flashing a xperia 10 iii.
Disabling like described by @emva seems to be working.

Still not really a solution - even 1 year later…
