Question
Hello s7yler! Thanks you very much for deep review of Blackwiew Alife P1 Pro! :good:
How did you enter to the engineer mode on this phone to see names of camera modules?
Which special code did you use?

Can this thing be rooted and run xposed?

For engineer mode, paste:
*#*#3646633#*#*
into the dialer.
Any tip on how to tweak it?

Blackview forum & OTA
Sorry I can answer the last question but just wanted to contribute that I understand Blackview have recently opened the sourcecode for this phone and have a forum also on their website for questions..seems like a new OTA update is being prepared.

Another (written) review online here: Blackview Alife P1 Pro review

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1ItEpI2ezwJaXo2eUpQWW5BNTg/view
source code for the kernel can be found there.

FYI I just ordered one for fun and to port CM 12.1 and 13 onto it

Update: The CPU clocks at 1.0 GHz in reality. Blackview tried to screw us over there
See: https://github.com/visi0nary/androi...087#diff-9cb8d0039fb739eef0bd6253de2acdd9L464

Actually if you watch my video in post #1 and go to time 20:45
You see that it says Possible CPU types: 988Mhz
Declared cpu type 1300Mhz
So I'm not surprised

Aight, CM 12.1 runs Everything works except fingerprint. Once I got that implemented, I will release the build

4G+ or not

Ok, Im currently living in Japan and we have access to 4G+ or carrier aggregation. I have the unlocked Moto z play (its not available thru the carriers here so moto sells it directly) XT1635-02 and just chatted to motorola support about 4G+ support.
While the customer service representative was kind and trying to be as helpful as they could be, I wasnt that confident that they answered my question. So Can anyone clarify, Does the moto z play support 4G+ ??? The CSR said "it is not automatic like my friend's zenfone 3" so I have to turn on data (which I have on all the time but still no 4G+ symbol)
Thanks

After updating to Nougat, my Moto Z Play is showing LTE+ (for LTE-Advanced)

I'm using jio in India and it is not showing LTE+ thats why i asked you

Yes

Guys, did someone manage to confirm that it supports carrier aggregation? There is a place here that I am 100% sure that has CA and I am very close to the cell, because its the headquarters of the telecom company, but my Z Play doesn't detect it at all and speed is just normal 4G speed. My model is XT1635-02 dual sim.
All of you who post screenshots, can you post a screenshot from the cell info page while you are shown the icon 4G+ or LTE+? Its accessible by typing *#*#4636#*#*, Phone Information -> bottom, the values EARFCN are important. This shows what band are you on. (if you don't know what's this, google EARFCN calculator and when you enter the value there, it gives you the exact frequency that the phone is receiving signal) I didn't manage to get 2 bands on the same time - either is 1575 (band 3 1800mhz) or 2850 (band 7 2600mhz) but not both at the same time which is what actually 4G+ ot LTE+ is - to be connected to two bands at the time.
Thanks

Yes 4G+ works automatically i am pretty sure

Greets from Australia
SM-N976B

Still on 4G here in the UK (Only around London has proper coverage, But they are updating as they go along. You still get very high speeds on the 4G ranging from around 100Mbs
Faster than what i was getting on my Note 8

I get the rectangular logo posted above, with a white background and black "5G" text when the phone is active on 5G. When it is connected on 5G but not active on data, I get the same logo but with black background and white text.
That's on EE in London (and Vodafone, when their network can be arsed to work)

These icons?
I've seen them both as well.

Yep, that's the two I get. I didn't realise they actually meant something different
(and anyway, I thought that the Note 10 5G was only capable of 5G NSA (non-stand alone), which makes a bit of a mockery of having 2 different 5G icons allegedly meaning 2 different methods of connecting...)

Question Enable 5G before OTA Update

Is it possible to enable 5G in the Indian variant of One Plus 9 Pro? I know I cannot test 5G network. I tried to edit the carrier_policy.xml. This was the output.

Also is it possible to enable the rest of the bands like North America Varient?

same question.

I do have this same question

I'm positive that the indian version might not have the physical antennas for 5g built inside, the north American does because apparently 5G is so important that every new phone in America needs it. Im guessing its the same thing like with the International version of the Galaxy Note 21 where they don't have the 5G antennas and the North America does but they sell them the same price no matter what.
But who knows I could be wrong

You need a 5g plan enabled sim and you should ask your provider if they have 5g coverage in your area.
If 5g is enabled in your phone. You shud select 5g in network type. Also options like Smart 5G will be enabled in settings. The sim should be in sim slot 1 if dual sim phone.

One way to check from UE Capability Information message if it report 5G band then it's enabled.
You can check few differents way to get UE Capability Information message: https://cacombos.com/contribute.

Hello brother,
Even I faced the same issue. Samsung's technical support is also struggling to provide solution to it. The upcoming row updates could help. But there's a solution. In India, there are carriers who provide an eSIM upgrade without EID. JIO will ask you for EID. But AIRTEL DOESN'T. Visit an Airtel store for more info. It worked for me.

@thrinaypotta I am using Airtel eSIM and I have EID.

A lot of s22's have "Not available" status on EID. So, Airtel doest ask for EID in registration for eSIM. JIO deos need an EID. Check the links below:
Airtel: https://www.airtel.in/esim
Jio: https://www.jio.com/jiofiber-services-high-speed-internet
Choosing Airtel could be a better solution if EID is not available.

The solution to the jio eid issue is very simple.
Check behind the box. successfully using jio esim. @mesuvith
