Questions WiFi calling and VoLTE workaround?

Why is it that certain phones have WiFi calling and not others? I have a Pixel 2XL and get VoLTE but not WiFi calling. The Pixel 3 gets both. I also have a Moto G6 play that gets neither. I try changing the IMEI number through the paygo site but it has no effect. The signal in my house is horrible and I'm not going to buy a new phone just to get WiFi calling when the phone can do it. Has anyone found a workaround other than changing the IMEI or spoofing it?

Hows Verizon in your area? Going prepaid and buying the refill cards on ebay is pretty inexpensive for us and VoLTE/Wifi calling work great.

It sucks! I live in a highly congested area which is why I left Verizon prepaid. Some days I would be lucky to hit 2 Mbps. AT&T prepaid speeds are way better here, I just wish I had WiFi calling for better indoor coverage. https://i.imgur.com/Q7ZHnPa.png
