![]() However, the Airave 2.5 is not compatible with this technology and Apple’s update abruptly squashed your ability to make calls at home (if like us, your signal strength is too weak to make reliable calls (LTE or not). VoLTE is “Voice over LTE”, and it’s pretty cool because it increases call sound quality, and even better, it allows you to make calls and browse the internet at the same time, which was previously a drawback of being on a CDMA network, such as Sprint’s. Note, if you installed Apple’s latest update (13.6), the “LTE, VoLTE” options were added (replacing “LTE” (or 4G LTE)) and the setting was automatically set to “LTE, VoLTE On”. ![]() Now place another call and confirm that you hear the 3 beeps.Still in Settings, tap “Cellular Data Options”->”Voice & Data” and select “LTE, VoLTE Off”.Go back to settings and turn “Cellular”->”Cellular Data” back on.555-1212 (Sprint’s version of 411)) and listen for 3 beeps to indicate your call was placed through the Airave Reboot your phone once a minute has gone by.My iPhone SE’s “started” message eventually would disappear after about a minute if I didn’t hit OK, but I think hitting OK is fine, and keep the phone within 5 feet of the Airave for that minute Neither of our phones ever gave the update completed message in any of my dozens of attempts. You will see a “service update started” message.With your phone within 5 feet of the Airave, using the phone app, dial #UPDATE# (#873283#) and place the call (i.e.Still in Settings, go back to “Cellular” and turn off “Cellular Data”.Open the Settings app and go to “Cellular”->”Calls on other devices” and turn on “Allow Calls on Other Devices” * (see footnote if you are unable to set this).There may be other steps I previously tried (unsuccessfully) before getting things to work, but let’s try the last thing that did work for both our phones (iPhone 11 and iPhone SE, 2nd gen). We’ll start with the assumption that your Airave was working (as in our case) with your old phone and that all 4 lights on the Airave are solid green. I think in the past month, we’ve spent nearly 10 hours combined speaking to Sprint reps for all the issues, possibly more (and there’s probably a call yet to be had to address an incomplete refund for those erroneous charges).īut I digress, so let me jump straight into the how-to to reconnect your iPhone to the Airave 2.5… We had some difficulty getting our phones to make calls initially, but that’s another story, as is the story of the erroneous double charge for the Sprint upgrade/activation (both Apple and Sprint charged for the same activation and I’d been signed up without consent for the Sprint Complete protection plan!). My wife and I each got new iPhones recently (exactly a month ago today).
