Wifi Calling Provisioning Failed - Need Help Fixing!

Introduction

I’ve been facing a frustrating issue with my Android phone where Wi-Fi calling just won’t work. Every time I try to enable it, I get the error message: “Wi-Fi calling provisioning failed”. I’ve tried doing the usual things like restarting my device and toggling the Wi-Fi and airplane modes, but nothing seems to work.

What I’ve Tried

  • Resetting Network Settings: I went into the settings and reset the network configurations. This usually solves various connection issues, but not this time.
  • Rechecking Wi-Fi Connection: I made sure my Wi-Fi is stable and connected properly. Other devices are using the same network without issues.
  • Updating the Device: My phone is fully updated to the latest version of Android, so that shouldn’t be a problem either.

Possible Fixes

I’m hoping to get some advice or find out if anyone else has had a similar experience. I’ve read about a few potential fixes online:

  1. Check Cellular Settings: Making sure that the carrier settings for Wi-Fi calling are correctly enabled.
  2. SIM Card Issues: Some suggest that the problem could be linked to the SIM card itself. Anyone experienced that?
  3. Contacting Carrier: Has anyone had success by reaching out to their mobile provider?

Conclusion

I’d appreciate any insights or suggestions on how to resolve this. Maybe if you’ve experienced the same error, you could share what worked for you? Thanks a bunch in advance!

Looking forward to your responses!

WiFi calling provisioning can fail for various reasons, such as incorrect carrier settings. Ensure your device settings are updated and compatible with your carrier’s requirements.

I’ve also noticed that sometimes it can be a network configuration issue. Restarting your router or checking its settings might help!

Great point, lgarcia! Don’t forget about device compatibility. Older models may not support the latest WiFi calling updates, causing provisioning to fail.

Exactly! Plus, sometimes, a simple carrier reset can resolve the issue. Have you tried that?

Carrier settings really matter. Go to your settings and check for updates manually. Sometimes, carriers release updates that need to be installed for services like WiFi calling.

That’s true! I once had an issue where I had forgotten to enable WiFi calling in the settings. Maybe that’s the case for some users too?

I’ve faced this before! Sometimes, just toggling the WiFi calling option can re-establish the connection. Also, check if your phone is connected to the preferred WiFi network.

Very true, llynch! It’s always good to double-check which network you’re connected to, as some networks may block this feature.

Does anyone else find that sometimes the issue lies with the app permissions on their device? I had to allow specific permissions before WiFi calling worked!

That’s an interesting thought! If only all tech issues were so simple to resolve. I think my phone sometimes has a mind of its own!

If all else fails, don’t forget to contact your carrier. They might have specific troubleshooting steps that can help, as they know their systems best.

Good reminder! But sometimes it feels like talking to a wall when trying to get proper support. Anyone else felt that way?

I’ve had that issue too. Try resetting your network settings first! Go to your settings, find ‘Reset Options’, and select ‘Reset Network Settings’.

Absolutely, I also suggest contacting your carrier support. They can often see issues on their end that we can’t. Don’t hesitate to reach out!

That’s a great idea! Have you noticed if this issue happened after an update? Sometimes software changes can mess things up.

Thanks for the suggestions, everyone! I’ll try the network reset first and will contact my carrier if that doesn’t work. Fingers crossed!

Has anyone experienced a long wait time when contacting carrier support? Sometimes it feels like forever!

I’ve had long waits before, but persistence is key! Just have snacks ready. They usually come through with some solid advice.

For sure! I waited almost an hour last time. But they eventually fixed my issue with their guidance.
