prakritish 1 Report post Posted September 5, 2016 Does Reliance JIO support VoWifi? My house is surrounded by big buildings and signal quality is terrible. Will I be able to make calls over my broadband connection or it has to over JIO Wifi only? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LTE4G 195 Report post Posted September 5, 2016 AFAIK few models of LYF do support VoWiFi. Jio join app also supports call send and receive through wifi over Jio Network. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prakritish 1 Report post Posted September 5, 2016 I understand that Lyf phone do support VoWifi so does many other phone. If I am not wrong, Service Provider needs to enable it for their network before you can make call over Wifi. For e.g., Google FI allows users to make calls even where there is no cellular network.

Jio is offering VoWiFi also. Those who are using JioFi - They can use Jio join App and connect through JioFi hotspot to Jio Network. Read features. https://www.jio.com/preview/jiofi There is a catch "You can use Jio join app ONLY if you are connected to Jio Network either through Jio 4G or Jio Wifi Hotspot". As specified by Jio. Otherwise it will be a violation of telecom regulation - still needs clarification as the below articles say that Jio can use any network. http://rtn.asia/t-t/16963/reliance-jio-users-can-make-calls-from-airtel-idea-vodafone-networks-too http://trak.in/tags/business/2016/01/27/reliance-jio-voice-calls-airtel-vodafone-idea/ Calls can be made through JioNet Hotspot (WiFi) if you have the sim in your handset. The handset which do not support VoWiFi can use Jio join App AFAIK. Have not tried yet though my phone supports IP calling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arun 795 Report post Posted September 6, 2016 I have tried VoWiFi on iPhone 6 with Jio SIM. The option does show up in iPhone 6 which suggests that the operator supports it. However it doesn't work on other broadband connections; it requires a Jio WiFi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LTE4G 195 Report post Posted September 6, 2016 (edited) Has anybody tried Jio Join app on a 3G Handset connected via Hotspot to 4G handset (tethering enabled) with Jio SIM connected to LTE network ? Like the way it can be used in 3G handset connected to JioFi hotspot. May work with LYF handset. Edited September 6, 2016 by LTE4G Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

balac_m 17 Report post Posted September 6, 2016 I've tried that and not working. The only scenario it is working is with the JioFi device. I can use the jiojoin if my 3G handset connected to a JioFi network. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In updated My Jio there is a new option "Manage Device" where you can enter the Serial no. of device. Don't know what it is for ? but read somewhere that it is related to Jio Join app. Any Idea ?

commonman 228 Report post Posted September 7, 2016 As per FAQ only one device can be linked for voice at one time. For a VoLTE set, the phone itself is already linked. So logically jiojoin will not work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jpchheda 7 Report post Posted September 7, 2016 Vowifi is working absolutely fine. Put you Jio sim in 2g/3g phone.Download jio join app.DONOT go in airplane mode. Phone doesnt detect the sim in airplane mode . So it is important not to be in airplane mode so that jio join can detect your jio sim. Connect to a good wifi connection .Put your jio number in app. There will otp sent to your registered mobile with jio. Verify jio join with otp. And you are done. The jio join app should go online. I could make and receive calls on my 2g 3g phone using wifi on jio join. So this practically is a useful thing when there are places where you dont have jio coverage but a good wifi internet. Specially places like basement areas. My app didnt go online when i connected to wifi with speeds lower then 1mps. Not sure if it was a problem with net or app. :-)Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used 5 different wifi networks. Including hotspots of Vodafone and Airtel 4g. Low bandwidth broadband make JioJoin unable to go online.

May be if the number associated with Jio join is ONLINE (data or network connected to 4G) then Jio join can be routed through its own network only. And if the associated number is totally OFFLINE (Switched OFF) then the Jio join can use any WiFi or may be 3G/4G network to connect. Because if the SIM is ONLINE then it is registered on network - so Jio join can register through the same IP (Jio being IP based network). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
