Good News: 5 Easy Steps to Make Google Pixel and Pixel XL Compatible With Reliance Jio
Here’s a simple trick to make the Google Pixel and Pixel XL compatible with Reliance Jio.
Google recently launched its first set of smartphones, the Pixel and Pixel XL touting it as the first smartphone ever to be made by Google inside-and-out.
While the search engine giant's latest offerings may have a lot to offer for Android purists, they certainly lack in one major aspect, especially if seen from an Indian customer's perspective - full support for Reliance Jio.

Although they offer full support for data service, meaning you'll get to access Reliance Jio's 4G services seamlessly, the absence of support for VoLTE is a real bummer and that's what makes things worse.

An Update may bring support for VoLTE
The Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 chipset, by default, has the capability to offer support for VoLTE calls. However, the software part on the Pixel and Pixel XL smartphones is what opposes it. So, it is quite possible that Google will push an update in the near future at least before Reliance Jio's commercial launch in 2017 with support for VoLTE.
Does that work well?
Well, according to what Qualcomm says "the X12 LTE modem on Snapdragon 821 SoC is engineered to allow the Pixel to use the EVS codec (better known as Ultra HD Voice) for phone calls over VoLTE or Wi-Fi on supporting networks, so calls can sound even clearer than regular HD Voice, and stay connected longer in weaker signal conditions." However, it remains to be seen if this will be valid in real-time conditions as well.
