MTN, just like Glo, doesn't support VoLTE, so you can't make calls over 4G LTE. Make sure you set the network mode to alternate between 2G, 3G and 4G, or 3G and 4G, or 2G and 4G, depending on the options available on your device. That way, even when you are browsing over 4G LTE, when a call is coming in, it automatically switches to either 2G or 3G, it would work seamlessly.

My point is, the reason you haven't been able to make calls, check account balance or receive calls is because you switched your network mode to 4G Only.

4G doesn't support voice calls or USSD operations. It's data only.

They actually do. But your mobile operator will have to enable it. Smile and ntel are examples.

Like dustmalik said, Mtn and glo currently do not support volte
