It's an AT&T thing in the US. They don't allow non-AT&T locked phones (except for iPhones...) to access VoLTE/wifi calling. It's complete bullshit.

Not with any carrier I've ever used in the US. Maybe it's a Canada thing.

Don't think so, I'm Canadian and used 3 different carrier. Never heard of this.
