Rom with stable wifi, Bluetooth, volte, wifi calling ? - Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers

So right now I can't basically make calls on T-Mobile (mint mobile) without volte or WiFi calling not that it matters because it drops the internet connection on my home wifi frequently. Is there a rom where stuff just works ?

[Q] won't connect to data network

Hi! i'm using XDANDROID 2.2.1 with the latest update. the unknown problem that I discovered is that it whon't connect to data network. The network operator said that i dont need settings for the data connection but if the phone insists then i should use APN = ppinternet. tried bouth but didn't work! what shoul i do?!
Can you provide more info? Like, what build you're actually using? (Saying you're using "the newest" doesn't mean anything).
Also, what network operator are you on? You can make/receive phone calls/text messages?
Have you ever been able to use data on Android? Does your provider require a proxy?
this ([prj][XDANDROID][2.2.1][AOSP][24.01.11]FRX04 MINOR UPDATE. IMPROVED 3D performance)
my network operator is Digi mobil prepayd Romania. yes! i can make and receive sms/calls. no, i wasnt able never to make a data connection with my carrier.(in WM works). No, my provider works without o proxy. in fact, it works without any settings @ all. Im WM the only thing i imput for my connection to work is the connection name. the rest i leave them empty.
Try going into settings->wireless & network settings->mobile network settings->access point names->then add new apn. Set the name to Android and apn to Internet.
tried! wont work!

...what about it didn't work...?
SOLVED! It seemd that all was fine EXEPT the RECEPTION!!! It seems that XDANDROID is'nt so good in connecting me to the network in places where WM6.1 ENERGY is!!! hope the AOSP team will get this note!
Well AOSP= Android Open Source Project so just google made the aosp and maybe the settings are wrong, for me everything is fine, and still in romania. Using latest build.

SoD's definitely are related to poor service - it seems even worse when the phone is flipping between 3g and 1x or EDGE.
If this is a problem, run WinMo - as you said, it works fine in WinMo as our current RIL is atrocious. It's being worked on, but again - this is a work in progress, still under heavy development.

Sorry, really don't know what could be causing the issue in that case

Wifi tether slowness

Has anyone else experienced slow download speed when using wifi tether? I can do a speed test on my phone and get 40mb/s then connect to the OP3 tether from my laptop and it will not even get 1mb/s. Max I got this morning was .69
I am as well. I just noticed this and haven't been able to figure it out just yet.
What carrier and OS are you on? I'm on T-Mobile and running the initial CM13 Unofficial build from 07/03.
I've been messing with my APN settings, but I don't think that's the issue. I wonder if it has to do with T-Mobile not recognizing the OP3 as an allowed device or something like that.
Were you able to figure it out?
OK, so I restored to the Stock OOS 3.2.1 backup I had made, and tethering is fast and working as it should. So maybe it's a CM13 thing. I'm going to download the latest official nightly and see if that fixes it or not. I'll report back once I do.

Update: I installed the latest cm13 nightly 07/31 and immediately enabled my hotspot after initial setup and still experienced extremely slow tethering speeds.
Anyone else on cm13 that can test?

Rather than try to discuss this in the Offical CM thread, I'll try to keep any related info in this one. Here's what I found out recently:
OK, so far I have tried the latest builds of CM13 Official, BlissROM, Dirty Unicorns, and RessurrectionRemix, and they all exhibit extremely slow WiFi tethering speeds between 0.01Mbps - 1.5Mbps, The only ROM that returns expected WiFi tethering performance is the Stock Oxygen 3.2.2 (between 20-50Mbps).
It would be really nice if anyone here could run some quick speedtests while tethering to Hotspot to let us know what you get and what carrier!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And one user in the CM thread ran a test and had steller performance:
Notebook: Lenovo Thinkpad X220
Carrier: O2 Germany
32 Mbps over Wifi Tethering
Phone is on 3107 official CM
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So...without additional results from other users/carriers/ROMs, now I am thinking that maybe it is related to T-Mobile somehow. I wonder if maybe T-Mobile isn't recognizing 3rd party ROMs (and somehow is aware of Oxygen OS), and then throttles the tethering. I tried changing my device on their website to my previous HTC m9 with no change in tethering performance.
Anyone else care to test WiFi tethering speedtest for us (me)? Please also list your ROM and carrier.
TIA.

Just tried aicp and still had slow tethering. Only got about 1Mbps down. What speeds do you get?
T-Mobile does seem to be a common denominator though.
UPDATE: There are actually two AICP roms, and I had originally tried the 'KRYO" version, with slow tethering results. I just tried the "Unoffical" version and the speeds were better, at about 3.5Mbps. It's usable, but not great compared to OOS.
Interestingly, I only started using the [then] Unoffical CM13 rom on July 18, and my data usage shows about 1.5GBs of tethering usage. I didn't notice any issues with slowness until the end of last month, so I feel like it was working for a while in order for me to rack up so much usage.
My thoughts are that T-Mobile is throttling me, but I am on the 6GB plan (with full tethering allowance), and so far this month have only used ~2GBs of data.
I may try to call them later if I can and report back.
Any other T-Mobile users noticing wifi tethering slowness when using a custom rom?
It's almost the only thing with this phone that I really hate is, wifi tethering...it just does not work, atleast not properly...couple of times even random bootups...really annoying....it just that I need it with my laptop. I've had no problems with Huawei Mate 7 and the download speeds are superb...

It's not only the tethering which is working poorly it's also keeping up with the lte or 3g connection. It is changing too easily from lte to gsm only (edge)..As I said it's good with my other phone but not with this. I live in Finland and I have telia-sonera carrier. Elisa (carrier) is selling the phone here , it shouldn't matter(or maybe it should), but all the apn and others are configured fine.

Thanks for the update. Yours is the first in this thread that is not using T-Mobile and are experiencing the slow tethering issue.
I ended up calling T-Mobile and they were not able to resolve the issue. They escalated the issue to a higher level of technical support and said I should be hearing back from them in a few days. I'm not counting on anything, though.
I'm on Vodafone in NZ as well as on 2 Degrees in NZ and both have slow tethering speeds. My old LG G2 was much faster while tethering
Fixed it! (for T-Mobile at least)
It's an APN issue, at least for T-Mobile USA.
Just go into the SIM Card settings and edit the Access Point Names (i.e. APN) for the T-Mobile US LTE
Change the APN from fast.t-mobile.com to epc.tmobile.com (no hyphen). Use the menu option to Save the settings, then test the hotspot. For me, this worked instantly and without a reboot. Got 20Mbps down on my first Speedtest!
Yay!

I wanted to chime in and say Thank you for this. I changed my APN and am getting upwards of 26Mbps via hotspot. It does appear that I lost IPv6 but I'm not too worried about that right now.
Again, Thanks a lot!

This worked! you are a serious life saver dude!! woo hoo
This is what I found lately. When I received the OnePlus 3 last week, I tested the Hotspot functionality and it worked only with epc.t-mobile.com APN. However, after couple of days, the tethering became very slow on my other devices even though the speeds are of D/U 100 Mbps/20Mbps respectively.
Even though the tethering is slow, when I test for Speedtest.net on my laptop it still shows good speeds but no other website works. Then I filed a ticket with OnePlus thinking that hotspot tethering is not working. But then, I called up T-Mobile to check with them. They said I crossed the 5GB hotspot tethering limit and so they are automatically gets throttled. They said since they use speedtest.net for most of the testing purposes, that website is allowed automatically even through tethering and so it works.
In order test if it is the limit or a defect with the device, I requested T-Mobile to add little more bandwidth to my 5GB hotspot cap so that I can test it again before my billing cycle ends and they helped with the request. Voila, now the hotspot tethering works again super good. I have been testing on and off for the past few days and it is working pretty good since I did not cross the additional bandwidth yet. I am looking for a proper solution though so not to use the native hotspot which counts against the hotspot limit.
So, the native hotspot feature counts against the T-Mobile hotspot cap limit.
Hope this explanation helps.

T mobile and pretty much I've tried every nougant ROM all the way up to the recent 7.1.1 beta. If I roll back to marshmallow everything is fine which led me to believe that something got tweaked in the nougant update that killed VoLte

Here everything works fine for me. As I am an Indian so using JIO network which supports VoLTE and I can make and recieve the calls using the network.
Have you tried to enable enhanced 4G LTE mode in the SIM settings.

Yep and i even went as far as to go into the secret menu and tell it to grab only lte, which it does but as soon as a call is initiated from reason its drops the 4g connection and sticks to 3g/hsdpa. Then takes its sweet time to reconnect to lte after said call if it does it at all.

Maybe a firmware issue cause even after you are selecting LTE only then also it is switching to HSDPA. Weird.... You can try to flash the firmware file again & check if the issue is resolved. You can find the firmware from Jamal's thread.

Tried that too, I ever redid the apn's. At this point i just left it on 6.0, in all honesty i may trade this phone eventually anyway starting to miss having a lot of storage space. Especially with the job and all.

If you want to use 6.0 then go for Sultan's CM. It's best of all. Very much stable with latest updates.

I'm sure in there you seen that the voLTE provisioning is toggled on. I have only been able to get voLTE to work on official oxygenOS post Nougat and not any modded ROMs based on OOS such as experience or freedomOS. Toggling the voLTE in the status bar settings can tell you if it is working because the icon will show up there when it is. Turning that on and off seems to make it turn on at least for me after flashing the open betas which are the only OOS Nougat that I have tried.

Mobile data issue after pie update

Hey,
after updating to android pie I have problems with mobile data. In my area I usually have 4G or 3G but I now only have 2G a lot of times. I even compared the coverage with a friend who has the same provider as me but an iPhone, and she had 4G while I only had 2G. It also seems like I can't receive or send any WhatsApp messages unless I am connected to the WiFi.
Does anyone else have these kinds of problems, especially those living in Europe (I live in Germany)? Is there maybe a problem with LTE band 20? (my phone is not rooted, so I am unable to check)
I have the global version btw, and everything worked fine under oreo
