What’s going on with that?
Probably just swapping over to the cell network to continue the call.
While VoLTE is using data, it’s not part of the normal data service your phone uses for the internet, so turning off data likely doesn’t affect it.
Sounds like it’s just switching the call to the cellular network. But I could be wrong.
It’s miles away from my home so that’s got to be it but cellular is turned off. I guess it doesn’t do anything unless it’s in airplane mode…?
Well the cellular network has voice over LTE or voice over NR, whether the data side is turned on or not. So unless it’s an airplane mode with Wi-Fi turned on and you go out of range of the Wi-Fi, it should just switch it from the Wi-Fi over to the cellular network.

When you make a phone call, the antenna’s are used 100% for calling and using data is disabled (or at least, it used to be). Android might thus “pretend” that it is still connected.

Does that also work for people who never had data service and is a wi-fi only phone for calling, no cell/mobile service?
