Ok I just found this ....

" The 2013 DROID family – MAXX, ULTRA, and Mini – is receiving an update today from Verizon to version 24.3.7. The update does one thing, so I hope it does it well. The only item listed on the changelog says that this update brings bug fixes and stability improvements to VoLTE, which Verizon calls Advanced Calling 1.0. "

"According to the Verizon Wireless support pages, the following installments come with an advanced calling bug fixed, stability improvements and not much else."

Yep, that's all it does, tweaks and improvements for VoLTE. I have not seen any difference since applying the update. It does turn VoLTE to ON automatically if you currently have it Off. I tried it for two days and it was still a battery hog so I turned it back to Off. I am just not seeing any benefit to VoLTE for my personal needs.

Is VoLTE something that has been re-enabled on the phone subsequent to this update? If so, how do I turn it back off? (I've never enabled nor used VoLTE).

Thanks all.

Go to settings, more, mobile networks and you will see the on/off switch

Unless you have enabled it on your Verizon account, you won't even see the option on your phone. If it's not turned on with VZW, then it won't be turned on on your phone and you don't need to worry. For now it's useless and just a battery drain so I don't even have mine turned on with my VZW account.
