VoLTE
On Xiaomi phones, you can enable VoLTE using this command, just key in a the dial pad and dial *#*#86583#*#*
All three phones Huawei Nova 3, Xiaomi Mimax 2 and Samsung Galaxy Note 8 supports VoLTE.
Although VoLTE is enabled, tester is unable to make any voice calls. Making calls to the TPG numbers from other telco or fixed line failed too.
