I love my WiFi calling ability. I'm sorry to hear yours isn't working after the update. Let's get to the bottom of what happened. Please tell me, what experience do you have when making a WiFi call? Have you tried turning WiFi calling off and then back on?

I have this same problem.  Wifi activation fails every time. No reason is given.

NICBUL45, we don't want anybody to have a bad experience with the WiFi calling feature. Please tell me, have you ever used WiFi calling? What troubleshooting steps have you already taken?

I dont have twitter and I am not creating an account to for trouble shooting. Ever since the update the phone will not activate HD calling. Settings > Connections > Advanced Calling > and Activate Advanced Calling is greyed out. I use to always use WiFi calling because you don't support cell coverage in my area. I would hate to switch providers just to make emergency calls from my house. As of this moment I am unable to make any calls including 911 calls, THANKS VERIZON. Please fix this WiFi calling ASAP

Yes - @bearone21 gave it above:  in Settings/Advanced Calling/Advanced Calling, move the toggle to "OFF".

I want to turn off wifi calling, but when I press Advanced Calling, nothing happens. It just stays on the same menu. I don't know how to fix it!

YEEHAWYALL,

 

We definitely want you to be able to take advantage of this feature and the last thing on earth we would want is to lose you as a customer. We're not seeing any reported known issues specific to what you have described. Now, the Activate WiFi calling option should be grayed out once already enabled. You mentioned already having trouble at home. Do you receive this same message when attempting to use WiFi calling or HD Voice in other locations?
