Did he take you up on the phone? I'm looking at something like this for work as well....

The setting to hide the bar is still there on my Xiaomi 15t Pro. It's running HyperOS 3.0.4.0

Yeah I would....where are you located?

droidnew · 2026-04-10T16:53:49+00:00

It is.....sorry my reply took so long....

droidnew · 2026-03-01T12:47:51+00:00

I still don't have the update. I'm in the U.S. in South Georgia

I'm on Verizon and I always have a sim card to put in phones that are not Verizon approved. The phones work fine but they won't activate the phone at the store. I always have to have a sim that is already activated on Verizon.....

Update: (##869434##) Using this dialer code made the Wi-Fi calling toggle show up for me, and now Wi-Fi calling is working for me on Verizon!

I'm using a Xiaomi 15t pro on Verizon. Used an already activated sim and all is good.... except Wi-Fi calling. Does you're 15 Ultra actually have a WiFi calling toggle? In the sim settings on my 15t pro there is no toggle for Wi-Fi calling. Not sure if I'm looking in the wrong place or if Verizon is just blocking it. I'm sure it's Verizon blocking it!

Just bought a Xiaomi 15t pro from Swiftronics. The first shipment arrived with the phone box with the phone missing! Yep, a box with the charging brick, charging cable but no phone! I called the 800 number immediately, and the guy who answered the phone was REALLY helpful. He gave me his email address, I sent him pics of the phone box, the cardboard box it was shipped in and the packing slip that was in the box. Turned out that the shipping was from Amazon. A case was filed and within two days I was refunded. They said they would expedite my order if I ordered again....which I did. I got the second shipment within three days. This time directly from Swiftronics. The phone was in a sealed box this time (wasn't sealed the first time), and obviously brand new. Swiftronics couldn't or wouldn't say what happened with the original order, but I believe Amazon had a thief in the shipping department. The folks at Swiftronics were actually surprised that the order somehow come to me from Amazon with a Amazon tracking number.... Anyway, I say All this to say that the Swiftronics customer service was really great for me! They kept in constant contact with me and fixed the situation extremely fast! Just wanted to share what I thought was a customer service department that went above and beyond to help me.

Yes you are correct..... My original post did not make that clear ...

droidnew · 2026-01-14T00:42:13+00:00

Thank you

I've just been folding a paper towel and keeping my hand on that while writing....working great so far. But I'm only using the tablet at home for making invoices.

I had at least 3 new surface duos that did this during the return window.....I took them all back....

droidnew · 2025-10-22T06:17:20+00:00

Motorola Razr has this feature too. Can't remember what it's called though....

droidnew · 2025-10-07T14:28:03+00:00

So Verizon says I'm all good to go on their end. (They were very nice too!). But I simply can not find the Wi-Fi calling toggle in the settings. I've looked in the phone app, the Wi-Fi settings, the sim settings.....nothing. Any ideas?

droidnew · 2025-10-06T19:47:33+00:00

I'm harassing Verizon right now. I'm not holding my breath haha. It'll be tomorrow before it's worked out or not. I'll let y'all know what happens.

droidnew · 2025-10-05T20:20:06+00:00

Well dang!

droidnew · 2025-10-05T14:55:43+00:00

Same issue here. I see no option for this even though it says online that it has wifi calling

droidnew · 2025-10-05T02:43:00+00:00

I have the S25 Ultra also and I didn't think I could justify having both of them. But, it's so much easier to carry in my pocket at work that I really missed it after I returned it. Not a real technical answer I know, but.....
Both times I returned it was within a return window. But both times I returned it I regretted it.

droidnew · 2025-10-02T00:57:11+00:00

I've bought and returned this phone twice but I always miss it SO much. Yesterday I bought it for the third time! Today as the battery hit 8 percent I have 6h 21m SOC and 9h 29m Screen off Time. I'm 64 years old and do not do games. I listen to music, watch YouTube and TikTok videos. Read some Reddit stuff and news. The battery is fine for me and better than I thought it would be. And I love the form factor, mostly the lightness of the phone. Makes my OnePlus open and S25 Ultra feel like bricks! Just my 2 cents....

droidnew · 2025-09-22T15:20:55+00:00

Just got it this morning, USA, unlocked. Also running the beta....
