Hopefully this is the correct link for the VoLTE FAQ. It will tell you everything you need to know

I've "heard" people have gotten the survey twice now? I wonder what that's all about..

I read that there was a 23.3.23 soak test two weeks ago, then volte was dropped from the droids over that weekend temporarily, then there was another 23.3.24 update about this time last week. So, if I were a betting man, I'd bet that there was a problem with the initial 23.3.23 ota.

Might have been.

Android is upgrading...

Optimizing 86 of 196.

Update complete, now I'm getting "Unfortunately, EAB application has stopped" errors.

Rebooting...

New splash screen, same "M" logo in the middle, but "powered by ANDROID" (with ANDROID in a nice font), is now at the bottom

Once you get VoLTE added to your account through the My Verizon site, reboot your phone and then the new VoLTE toggle should look like this. I have not noticed any difference in call quality yet....just that its a battery hog. Settings > More > Mobile Networks.

I have noticed much more clarity when talking to the wife. That said, being that she's currently the only other person in my contact list that has a VoLTE enabled device, I've turned it off. It's a battery hog on the S5 as well and I've gotten used to not having to plug in my phone until I go to bed each night. It's a waste imo...

From Androidforums...

When the screen is off and you pass your hand over the proximity sensor the previous release would show the active display. This release does not. Moving the Maxx with the screen off will show the active display.

In Settings | Google | Voice | “OK Google” Detection make sure “From Google Search app” and “from any screen” are both off. If they are on very strange things happen with Touchless Control.

With both options turned off ... when you are in the Google Search app ... it now responds to the launch phrase. The previous version didn’t.

When you place your Maxx on a wireless charger the tone is now different. There still is no way to change it or disable it.


I can confirm, wave over top to show notifications (active display) no longer works...we're back to knocking.

I can't speak to the other issues mentioned.

Edit: Wave doesn't work, it was fooling me. Now the display wakes up every 13 seconds on the mark for me, stays on for 3 seconds, then off for 9. I've clocked this for over 5 minutes this way.

I am thinking about turning it off now also, 2 short calls every day the last few days are using 15 - 20% battery??? I now have to charge my Maxx every day to have any juice by the next morning just because I made a few calls. Hopefully Verizon will continue to tweak and update their VoLTE network so it's not such a battery drain on the phone. It's a cool new feature...but they have some things to work out before it's ready for every phone.

Yep...the "Jedi Hand Wave" to see active notifications is gone...bummer!

I can confirm that if both options are checked very strange things happen when trying to use Voice Controls. If they are unchecked, Voice Control seems to work fine.

True...that's another reason why some people may not want to turn VoLTE to ON. Folks that travel between 4G and 3G areas might drop some calls if they turn VoLTE on.
