No 4G+ No voLTE - Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers

I purchased a Note 8 pro, and I noticed that with Vodafone Italia it does not aggregate nor the bands and I do not have the voLTE, although in the settings it is active.I obviously put the sim to check it was not a temporary disservice and in the Mi 9 I have both 4G + is the voLTE. The model is obviously European EU MIUI 11.

Activated MIMOX4 and CA in MIMO via engineering mode, this will enable LTE-Advance aka LTE+
You should check enable feature, other is depending on your network support and how much you want sacrifice mAH for max speed

I live in Italy too...Have you solved the problem? I'm thinking of buying this phone too, but I want to know about carrier aggregation...what have you managed to get? 2CA or 3 CA? Anyone else have better information about CA? The bands used in my country are B1 B3 B7 and B20 (B32 too but it is supported only on high-end devices).

I have not tried it yet, but I am disappointed being an EU model that does not aggregate bands and does not even support voLTE. everything works well on the Mi9, also an EU model.

What application is used to check the connected bands? I activated CA and MIMO but nothing has changed. Could someone send a screenshot of what the configuration should look like in engineer mode? Thanks.

I think it has something to do with " LTE Physical Channel Configuration "
comparing my Redmi Note 7 pro, It has open and close curly bracket while my Redmi Note 8 pro. There is config written on it.
I've seen a link. Its the same issue regarding 4G+ enabled, I didn't test yet

I hope some will come up a version for Redmi Note 8 pro

lte+/4g+ carrier aggregation support?????

Does anyone getting CA/LTE+ support on their RN 5 pro. Its mentioned on their website that device supports CA/4G+, but m not getting the CA support in the area where I used to get it on LeMax 2.
Same problem here with the redmi 5 plus.
According to miui forums, carrier aggregation with bands 3+7 doesn't work with xiaomi phones.
This seems to be a bug that has been going on for years with xiaomi phones, and xiaomi doesn't seem to be giving any feedback on this issue.
If you can get some feedback from xiaomi, please report back here. Thanks.

I thought the CA is volte support. Do you have global version and what country are you in?
CA (aggregation of multiple bands) and volte (voice over lte = the connection won't switch to 3g during a call, but remain in 4g) are two different things. Volte works with as well as without CA.

Change LTE bands (Unlock band 20)

Hi all
I bought a Chineese Version of the Redmi Note 8 pro. I installed now V10.4.1.0 Global Rom and it works. Last problem is that i need band 20 to have a good 4G connection.
Is it somehow possible that i can unlock and set this band ?
Kind Regards
You cant add new BANDS. China modem no support him !Re-flashing does not help!

Redmi NOte 8 Pro has big problems with LTE 4G + tape management. The phone does not keep the 4G + it switches and stays in 4G all the time. It's a modem management problem that does not support the double-banding needed for 4G +.

Hello, could you please specify what kind ofLTE band issues this phone have? I've just ordered Global vers. with 128 GB ROM, where Band 20 (800) is the most important for me, as it is the most frequently used one in Türkiye. It doesn't exist in my Mi5, so hope the signal and speed would be better with Redmi Note 8 Pro.
anyone played around with trying to unlock more bands? pretty sure the modem has the ability to get them all, and is just software locked for one reason or another
Even I go to engineering mode. It still cannot unlock the band 7 / 20.
it seem Chinese version cannot unlock the band.
I hope some expert can do it later and share with us.

what do you mean by "tape management"? If it's a modem management problem, then it is software related. Helio G9T's HAVE the WorldMode modem, what you're describing doesn't make sense and doesn't answer my question.

it's probably a modem firmware issue. the problem is the Helio G90T is only available on the RN8 Pro, so swapping modem firmware from another device isn't happening. I wonder if anyone with the Global variant has tried though.
I have Note 8 pro Global Version and band 7,20 is enable by default.
may work

Support for Carrier Aggregation LTE-Advanced(4G+)/LTE-Advanced-Pro(4.5G)?

Hello guys, I imported the device in the global version and read on some topic that it does
not support carrier aggregation LTE-Advanced(4G+)/LTE-Advanced-Pro(4.5G) anyone else to confirm this?
I confirm . Same problem whit vodafone italy , no carrier aggregation whit x2 but no problem whit x2 pro

Strange that they have limited this on the phone their version is the global one right?
Maybe if we press Realme he will release Carrier Aggregation, do you have the link of the email or forum?
yes, global model with b20, even I could not believe it, probably lte + is not essential but I still cannot understand how it is possible that it is absent in a medium-high end device in 2020. I'm also looking for a forum or an email to ask for explanations.

Apparently a large part of these medium-high Chinese smartphones have support for Carrier Aggregation blocked I saw in some post how to unlock the MI9 Chinese version and other phones
may work on Realme X2, however when I get mine I'll do the tests and try to unlock although I think it hardly reaches those speeds in my country and data plan,
well at least there is the B28 band that is not much like that price segment

Hello Sir almost everyone is facing this issue. For more info,I would suggest you to join the official telegram group @realmeX2Official , where you can connect with other x2 users and get instant solution for doubts and problems. Also we're working on custom roms. So join to get instant updates.
Oppo RealMe X2 support only Contiguous CA: https://cacombos.com/device?model=RMX1993EX - So this is reason why you don't get LTEA working in your network because your network do Non-Contiguous CA.

https://cacombos.com/device/SM-G986W Because your device doesn't support Carrier Aggregation combinations between 3, 5 and 40. You can check that easily on linked website.

Both model support CA but different combinations. Canada model is optimized to Canadian networks and Global to Global networks like India, Europe, Australia, Middle East... Just different models are targeted to different market area.

Question Oneplus 9 pro telus 5G

Hi, I have a question about telus 5G, anyone can connect telus 5G network? I don't even have 5G switch in setting.
thank you!
I have a OP9 and same issue. Data is also very slow but that could be a separate issue.
If it's available/provisioned to your SIM, I'd assume that setting your Preferred Network Type to the variant that includes 5G should allow it to be received.
I support some clients on Telus, but I'm not well versed in how they're rolling out 5G and/or what bands they're using, etc.

In other words "Buy a phone from us if you want 5G".

That's unfortunate. I swear I remember my OnePlus 8 Pro being 5G compatible though. I never saw it in the status bar but it was an option inside settings. Strange that the 9 is not seeing 5G anywhere.
Maybe someone will come out with some kind of mod or tool to force 5G.
Hola
Sad situation this is. Stranger still is that I had a Xiaomi Mi 10 last year and I was able to get 5G in certain locations. And at one point Telus was the least restrictive when it came to VoLTE and WiFi Calling enablement on non-Telus branded phones.
5G is not enabled in Telus 5G-network. Here is listed 5G supported devices: https://mt.ax/0x390
To enable 5G, you can follow my blog guide: https://mt.ax/uLgc2 .

Question Carrier compatible to Redmi K40 5G in USA?? Will POCO F3 Work?? Which carrier??

Anyone know which US carrier can use the Redmi K40??
I tried: ATT, Cricket, T-Mobile and Mint but none of them work.
Any info would help. Thanks.
Also, will POCO F3 work in USA?? Which carrier can be used??
Thanks.

I received my poco f3 and am using it right now as I am typing. For the most part it works. Support for bands is limited though. I think that is the reason why I can't verify my account to unlock bootloader. I can make phone calls fine. The problem is sometimes I don't receive calls or messages are delayed.

I'm using Cricket and Ultra. I brought the K40 want to use Cricket but didn't work. Tried Mint also no luck. Then it's working with Ultra.
