1. A method for providing voice and data services simultaneously in an Evolved-Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network New Radio-Dual Connectivity (EN-DC) capable User Equipment (UE) comprising at least two transceivers, wherein the method comprising:
determining, by the UE, whether a Voice over Long Term Evolution (VOLTE) service is supported by a network entity while the UE is operating in an EN-DC mode;
automatically switching, by the UE, from the EN-DC mode to a Single Radio Long Term Evolution (SRLTE)-ENDC mode in response to determining that the VOLTE is not supported by the network entity while the UE is operating in the EN-DC mode; and
configuring, by the UE, a first transceiver of the at least two transceivers for both the voice service based on a third radio and data services based on a first radio and a second transceiver of the at least two transceivers for a data service based on the first radio or a second radio while the UE is operating in the SRLTE-ENDC mode.
