Galaxy m51 on US Carriers - Samsung Galaxy M51 Questions & Answers

Has anyone tried to use this battery beast on Tmobile? Do you get VoLTE and Wifi Calling?
Thanks

I just got it yesterday and i'm running it on Tmobile and i'm getting ever so slightly better reception and call quality than my A71
I just swapped sims and i was off and running on the M51
So far I"m loving it.

Nice, have you been able to activate wifi calling and volte? What the SOT for you?

Yep i have the wifi calling going
as for the Screen On Time, it's day 2 (46th hour to be exact) and i'm down to 29% right now after a full charge and completely setting the phone up adding apps and tweaking the settings for hours..
For some reason my SOT for yesterday was 8.5 hours.
so far this morning it's 45 min.
Oh i just noticed It listing 3 days 3.5 hours+8.5+.45min. so 12 hours and 45 min so far.

Is there anything different with software running on it, I should factor in? Have you tested apps like Google Pay?

So far I haven't noticed a difference from my A71 except that it's missing the side panel and photo cropping app.
Has for Google pay, I have no idea. I didn't use it on this phone or my A71

Have you run into any problems with the phone lacking Carrier Aggregation?
What LTE speeds do you get with using an app like Speed Test?
I read mixed things.

Probably no carrier aggregation. Probably returned the phone.

I went to go see the T-mobile version today

I went to go see the T-mobile version today at a store in Tacoma... AND I LOVE THE PHONE!
I'm definitely waiting until August 12th (which is the now rumored release date).
It is everything that I thought it would be.
But here are some impressions for those of you interested in the T-mobile USA version:
1. No chrome- thankfully this did not kill the sex appeal. I think that the phone is the sexiest phone I have ever seen. The look is not inferior to the International version, just different.
2. It is a speed demon! Whatever ROM it is running is even faster than the international version (from what I have seen in video reviews) and everything is very fluid.
3. The keyboard is perfect. Enough said.
4. The guy who owned the phone said that the release date is supposed to be mid-to-late August. Though I'm betting on August 12th.
5. Any questions, ask away. I'm very excited for the release of this phone.
Did T-Mo keep the second camera on this phone, is it full of bloat-ware, and lastly did they destroy any of what we love about the phones capabilities.
i have a german t-mobile vario 5 and i can say hardware is exactly the same so YES front camera is there too!
there is some software like web n walk and some other t-mobile software but its not that bloated.

I'm sorry. I was asking that question assuming the author was referring to T-Mobile USA. I know it's not out yet in US for customers, but there are some T-Mo employees that have demo versions of the phone. I thought this person was one of them.
I have the Tmo version , great phone I must say, ive had a couple of problems though

For some reason the Music player on Touchflo3d cannot read my memory card. I have an 8gb card, with around 1100 songs and it takes forever to load. After about 5 mins, it might show the songs, I click a song, it lags to play, then it plays, I try to change the track and it freezes.
Do we know yet which 3G frequencies the USA version of this phone will support? i.e. will it only work on the US networks, or be a proper 'world standard' phones that will work on all the UK 3G networks as well as the US ones?

I believe that it supports international EDGE bands.
However, it only supports T-mobile 3G. No AT&T nor European 3G I think.

I'm glad there's no chrome, personally. I plan to own the device for a long time, and with my luck the chrome would crack before I grew tired of the device. But from the one shot I've seen of it on a TmoUSA promo it's my least favorite looking of all the versions. I'd have to go digging around, but I think either the Sprint or Verizon was my favorite looking device.
Fortunately, appearances are the least important factor in my buying decision, because I'll probably end up on TMobile's network before I even get the phone.
The guy who has it name is Young.
If you don't like the looks of the phone, you can always get a gel skin. You can also order replacement exterior pieces online and just have someone take the phone apart and put the new parts on.
It is so bloody annoying that the TP2 is coming out everywhere on t mobile (in the US and mainland Europe) except in the UK. The rumour that it failed testing in the UK can't be right, as it appears to have passed testing everywhere else. Perhaps it has more to do with the fact that t mobile in the UK is being sold off and that it can't afford too many new launches of products.

WiFi calling on AT&T?

I'm hoping the wifi calling works with ATT... Probably the biggest reason I'm "upgrading"from my 2 xl. Can someone post here if they find out?

I don't thik so....ATT did not want to carry Pixel 3a. And wifi calling does not work by ATT fault not google. So they will do the same for pixel 3a. But I can confirm once I get mine today.

This doesn't answer the ATT question but Verizon Wi-Fi calling works on the unlocked 3aXL from Best Buy. So maybe it'll work on ATT....hope so for you. It's a great phone
WiFi calling does work on the pixel 3 with ATT though, and that's not offered through them either

Fantastic. Looking forward to getting this Friday
sweet thanks for the info guys, mine will be here today, I bought mine from B&H photo and when you bought the 3A XL you get a 100.00 gift card to use on there website like Best Buy is doing also.

Results vary, apparently. Did you use a sim you already had, a new sim, or eSim to get your phone connected? I just ordered one from B&H, but won't ship until the 14th. AT&T wifi calling is the main reason I got this so I'm sort of tracking responses. It seems my Z3 Play is never going to get that feature. We do get wifi calling with our prepaid plan on the one iphone we have.

Thanks. If, by any chance, you lose those features (some have reported that happening, but more in the past and with phones NOT provisioned by AT&T), please let us (me) know. I felt secure enough to order the phone, so here's hoping it's all good.
I got my 3a XL today and wifi calling works perfect on my ATT service.
Confirmed as working on the 3a. VoLTE and wifi calling. Didn't have wifi calling before but was able to turn it on in settings and click through the att setup. Excited about this phone!
Also, posted at #410. That poster has prepaid (as do I). I'll open the box tomorrow morning then report my findings. :fingers-crossed:
Edit: It took persistence, but on the fourth try, BINGO!
WiFi calling failed during the first 24 hours with att Sim installed. After that period I tried again and it activated! Maybe they need to update imei in their system and then it works?

Is the Mate 20X Worth Buying?

I'm in NYC presently and using Tmobile. I'm using the samsung a70 with is amazing. But I also bought the mate 20X. I read that it doesnt have wifi calling and google map history and google pay dont work. I dont want to use a phone if it presents issues. My question... is this phone worth using? Will it be more of a headache?
.
If you want a powerful phone with a big screen, good camera, and big battery, nothing else comes close.
I used it with T-mobile in NJ and NYC without any problems, but I don't use the features you mentioned.

Hi btblue,
Thanks for the reply. But why are people complaining the phone lacks these features?
What version of mate 20X do you have? Do you have L29 version and do you have tmobile?

Hi.
I have EVR L29.
I have owned the phone since January and only with the recent update did the WiFi calling option appear for my carrier, Vodafone.
If I used an EE (T Mobile) or Three sim I would instantly have WiFi calling enabled.
Might be something to do with carrier settings?

Pixel 2 XL 2019

Is purchasing a Pixel 2 XL in 2019 worth it? I had originally purchased this phone immediately upon release but then the news of the screen issues surfaced and I cancelled my order. I was purchasing one sight unseen and didn't want to get a device with issues. I went and looked at roughly 6 devices between Best Buy and Verizon, after cancelling my order, and they all exhibited pretty significant blue shift and each phone was slightly different. This made cancelling my order a smart thing in my opinion. Paying $900+ for a phone with a crappy screen isn't something I would ever consider. I bought the Galaxy S9+ instead and it's display is utterly astonishing, truly spectacular.
Now to the present, I have just purchased two Pixel 2 XLs, one a factory replacement and the other a lightly used unit. Paid $330 total and I thought that was an excellent deal. The interesting thing is that both these phones have screen that are significantly better than the ones I viewed nearly 2 years ago. They are for my parents as Christmas gifts and it's now got me thinking that maybe I should jump on one.
I found the below listing on eBay and was wonder if it seems legit. Says the devices are new. Should I take a shot at one you think?

It seems legit, and that's a good price, however, it appears to be a Verizon variant, which means you probably can't unlock the bootloader if you wanted to root it.

It's odd cause it says Verizon GSM Unlocked. Verizon isn't GSM it's CDMA and why would it also say Unlocked. I believe the seller is in Hong Kong so I think it just might be an English thing.

That's what I was thinking but the way the guy lists the heading is confusing. If you look at the item details it says AT&T, T-Mobile, Unlocked, Verizon. Would be easier if it just stated unlocked and works with all major US carriers. In any case I have asked the seller a direct question to confirm the fact it is unlocked. I am still rocking my S9+ which just updated to Android 10 and have been thrilled with it, but not having root and the ability to backup all my data is annoying. Even though the displays on the devices I just bought are way better than the initial XL releases, they still aren't as good as the S9+. Samsung simply makes the best displays. Hard to pass up $269 for a brand new factory Pixel 2 XL though. Unfortunately the Pixel 3 XL and Pixel 4 XL just don't do it for me, and the 4 XL isn't getting great reviews.

I hear ya on the Sammy displays! My wife's note 9 display is beautiful. Having said that, it still has stutters from time to time, lots of bloat, and no root. I absolutely love my rooted P4XL despite what the reviews say. Runs like a champ, and I get 2 day battery life because I'm a light user. I came from the P2XL, which I still keep as my backup. It was a great device for 2 years, and still works great. However, it feels really slow compared to my P4XL :good:

Did the P4XL go back to using Samsung displays? I know the P2XL used LG P-OLED. I just wish they wouldn't hadn't done away with the fingerprint biometric reader.
It's a tough choice to give up my S9+ and try out the P2XL. I've got used to the S9+ and the UI doesn't bother me, especially since I installed the Pixel 2 XL Launcher . The S9+ is snappy and beautiful, but not root capable, and that's a bummer. S9+ also has expandable memory, wireless charging, and headphone jack. Man it's a tough call, I've been kicking it around for days now. The money isn't the issue at all, it's the giving up the S9+ itself, I have enjoyed it. It's the best not rooted phone I have ever had, and I haven't had a single issue with it. In the end, I am still looking to switch to the Pixel platform, but definitely didn't like the P3XL and I'm still evaluating the P4XL. We'll see what the P5XL brings to the table.

Nope, Snapdragon version can't be rooted. It really does suck as Android still doesn't allow backup of all app data via Google drive backup. I should say that developers have disabled backup within their app, Google doesn't control it. So you're left completely setting up your new phone for the apps that don't allow Google drive backup. Samsung has a great app, Smart Switch, but it still suffers from app developers who have disabled app backup.

Unfortunately, I have tried this and any app that has ADB backup disabled will not backup. This is the same method the app Helium attempts to use and many apps won't backup because the developer has set ADB backup to disable.

Well ain't that a kick in the can! Guess that's why we like to root. At least for now, and until android becomes iOS 2.0, TiBu still works for user apps.
I went ahead and pulled the string on the eBay listing I posted. It's definitely a seller in Hong Kong so that worries me a bit. Luckily VISA or Mastercard are pretty good if you get scammed. Happened to me once on a purchase that was made out of China. The item I got was not as described and PayPal unfortunately wouldn't resolve it for some reason. Kind of irritated me that they wouldn't, but my VISA took care of it and performed a charge back no problems at all. If it comes and is perfect by all accounts, I'll let folks know it's legit. For that price you could get a fresh P2XL and rock on for years to come.

Yeah if I get the feeling that it's carrier locked, I'll send it back. No way I would go this route if root isn't possible. We will see I guess, hoping for the best.

Verizon isn't GSM. It's currently CDMA and LTE with 5G rolling out. That article simply states that old 3G and non-HD voice 4G will no longer be able to activate on Verizon's network. Verizon has never been GSM, to my knowledge. Soon there will be no such thing as GSM or CDMA, only 4G and 5G, and whatever comes after that.

Verizon has never been GSM, to my knowledge. Soon there will be no such thing as GSM or CDMA, only 4G and 5G, and whatever comes after that.

The LTE network on Verizon is a GSM network.

Question Does Oneplus 11 work on AT&T?

Title says it all. I remember reading in the past that there was some issue with their phones working on AT&T.

The OnePlus 11 is fully certified to work on AT&T, including 5G. Only thing you won't have is mmwave as the 11 doesn't have mmwave.
OP 11 works on all major US carriers it's on the OP website.
Yes it will work. Unfortunately WIFI calling won't.

Are you saying if I use Google Voice wifi calling it won't work or are you saying that 'native' wifi calling won't work?

Ok. Thanks!
I'm using a OnePlus 7T on AT&T and ATT Support had to enable Wifi Calling on my account, it works w/o any problem and should still work when my OnePlus 11 arrives.

Interesting. Does that cost extra?

No. ATT Support just had to enable it on my device (OP 7T).
AT&T is pretty hit or miss with OPlus in my experience. They forced me out of their network when I had a OnePlus 7 Pro. Told me to upgrade, gave me the 3G network nonsense. Bought the 10 Pro, called support, they enabled all the switches on their side... two weeks later they cut my service completely right after a billing cycle and I couldn't text, call, and didn't have data. They kept telling me **** like my phone wasn't certified or something for their network, a brand new device bought from best buy, lol. The gall.
For OPlus I would use T-Mobile, as that's their "licensed" vendor so even global, EU, or CN Oppo devices seem to work fine. But that's just my personal experience last year, perhaps others are different.

That used to be the case but not since the 10T. OnePlus is now officially certified for AT&T network (but only the 10T and 11). In the past though, it wasn't certified and AT&T loved to kick people off for using a non-certified phone. As far as T-Mobile though, yeah OnePlus devices fully work on their network without any nonsense. They also fully work on Verizon without any nonsense too.

The phone works EXCEPT that the Hotspot does not start. I have a oneplus 7 pro that has no problem starting the hotspot with the same sim.
