From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Is calling voLTE audio working yet? I have the OP6T and have postmarketos edge installed but last time I updated it a few weeks ago voLTE still wasn't working with audio in the calls. My last hold out to start using it as a daily driver.

No, but regular calls (via 3G networks) work-ish; the only problem is that you can't switch the audio output, i.e. hands-free calls are not a thing.

There's instructions regarding VoLTE setup on the wiki: https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/OnePlus_6_(oneplus-enchilada)#VoLTE

That said, the one close-to-mainline phone Qualcomm SoC that's reliable for calls according to multiple accounts is the Google Pixel 3a.

Even then, it's hard to make blanket statements whenever it comes to VoLTE: It may work with the device for some one else, but as carriers are involved, it also depends on whether your specific carrier allows the specific device to use their VoLTE services.

(Given the fact that VoLTE is just VoIP, this feels really sad and unnecessary, but ... phone companies have always sucked, haven't they?)
