Reliance Jio Wi-Fi Calling (VoWiFi) launched officially

@Ameen How do you get that update?

 

[Ameen]

@varkey there are channels on yt which regularly gives updates on open beta for OnePlus, just saw one today. Don't get it.. Betas aren't worth it.
Unless you are too desperate for network range.
Let the stable version come out. It will in a couple of weeks maybe even one week.

If you still want to get it.

Its a big route to get back to stable version. From beta to stable version. The device storage will be wiped. So might need to create backup.

I'll probably wait. Not in a hurry. I just have a bit of connectivity issue at office but then Jio VoWifi doesn't seem to work with my office WiFi for some reason (on colleagues' phones). Yet to troubleshoot as to why.

@varkey I wonder why vowifi doesn't work in office wifi.
Both Airtel and jio vowifi is not working on my office wifi.

Not sure, the wireless network is pretty open and doesn't have any captive portal for auth etc. However the default DNS resolver is located in Europe, unsure if that has anything to do with the problem. Have to try with a different resolver to see if it makes a diff.

In my office Airtel VoWifi works, just Jio that is not working.

^^ Confirmed, its the issue with the DNS resolver, I changed to Google DNS on my colleague's phone (Samsung A50s) and VoWiFi worked. I guess Jio VoWifi doesn't work with non-Indian DNS resolvers. I think that also explains why sometimes it fails to work with 1.1.1.1 where you might get routed to the CloudFlare node in Singapore.

Good info @varkey

The irony is that we are on airtel leased line and Airtel vowifi doesn't work.
I think my office wifi uses cloudflare dns maybe because of that I'm unable to use vowifi.
I'll try with Google dns and post the results.
