Activate Advance Calling is Greyed Out on Droid Turbo

All of a sudden, I lost the ability to make and receive WiFi Calls on my Droid Turbo. The Activate Advance Calling is greyed out and I cannot activate it. I do get the HD icon when I make calls because HD voice is activated, but not WiFi. Just happened yesterday. Anyone have the same problems. Any idea how to fix.

What does the line under the 'Activate Advanced Calling' say? My Droid Turbo 2 has the Activate Advance Calling greyed out, but the line under it says 'Service upgraded to HD Voice and Video calling'.

Mine says the exact same thing. Problem is though, when I make or receive calls, I don't get the WiFi icon anymore that I used to get. I only get the HD icon, and I'm not engaging in a WiFi call

danieljon,

We can relate to how important it is for your features to work. Advanced calling is now referred to as HD voice on your device.

One way to verify the feature is working is to enable Airplane mode, then ensure WiFi is on, then place a call. What happens?

danieljon, help is here as we always want you to have access to every feature on your device. Let's get started. Via your phone, go to Settings>Advanced calling. You should see the following:

Activate Advanced Calling (grayed out)

Advanced Calling

Wi-Fi Calling

Do you see Wi-Fi Calling listed as the third option? If so, what happens when you attempt to tap it? Also, has there been any recent changes to your account or device?

Hello Kati

I did this a couple of times. Does not enable wifi calling in spite of the fact that wifi is active. I reset the Network settings as well as a cache clear. Still no wifi calling. Getting kind of frustrated. Any idea what my next steps are ? I'm really not wanting to do a factory reset on this.

I appreciate the steps you've taken, danieljon. Let's dig into this further before resorting to a factory reset. When you enable WiFi on your device, are you able to connect to a WiFi network? What software version do you have on your Turbo? Here is a link to check: https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-117844/

Hello Lynn

I actually responded to this yesterday, but I got an error on the email and it never went through. So let's try again.

I am on Android 6.0.1. I updated March of 2017. And there are currently no more updates.

I have a very good WiFi Connection. So I don't have any problems accessing things like Google, Twitter, etc. I've tried everything. I've wiped the Cache Partition, Reset the Network Settings, Shut down the phone and restarted, taken out the SIM card and put it back in. Used a different WiFi Network. Put it in Airplane Mode, turned on WiFi and tried making a call. Nothing works. Just cannot enable WiFi. I've not made any changes to my account. I took a look at it yesterday and HD Voice was on my account.

I've had problems with this before, but never to this extent where a reset or something similar didn't work. The original phone (Droid Turbo) did not have WiFi calling when I got it 3 years ago. So I'm wondering if it just wasn't built to accept this upgrade. I really hate to have to go out and buy a new phone. And I hate to have to go through a Factory Reset. But if I do, I do.

Any ideas ?
