If you had WiFi calling before Android 11 update and its missing now, this is probably because you had the SIM in the phone during the install. (I know it sounds daft).

Restart the phone without the SIM card, after restart put back your SIM and you should find WiFi Calling menu item on Phone app Settings.

 

I have used this method on an unlocked S20 on O2 and its worked for me.

Hello all, I have noticed that 'some' reboots require the process to be repeated. I have however just updated to the latest bug fix / security patch dated 1st January 2021. Since updating I have not had to repeat the the SIM out process. This might be coincidence or it might have been fixed. I guess we will have to wait and see over the coming weeks. 

If you do lose the WiFi Calling, repeat the process and it will come back.

Still a very temperamental thing. Just reset my phone usually do at least once a week and WiFi calling has disappeared. Any ideas what to do when it does that?

Hi all, I have a slightly differnt situation I'm hoping some one can help me with. I've had a Samsung Galaxy S10 for about 2yrs and I'm on the BT mobile network, the wifi-calling button has always been switched on but not enabled, then, after a software auto-update some time around June '20 the icon appeared in the notification bar showing it as enabled and I've enjoyed good clear calls using it since (virtually zero mobile signal when I'm at home). However, after the software update to Android 11 yesterday (23/02/21) its disappeard again and despite following all the instructions in these threads I can't re-enable it. I don't believe it's a network issue but any advise would be appreciated, thanks.

When enable, the wifi icon has a handset within itWhen enable, the wifi icon has a handset within it

I suggest you disable the setting turn off WiFi, turn off phone, remove SIM, reboot without SIM, turn on Wi-Fi then enable the setting and finally reinsert SIM.

Good luck
