need help. .
i'm now on MIUI 12.5.2.0 ID
since A11 need to change Worldmode to Lock low band onlya i accidentally changing Worldmode to LtCTG and can't back to default.
on default Worldmode was 12 and usually i change it to 15 so LTE Lock on FDD. but now it's only register to 16/17. any advice how reset to default.
*i Lock it since LTE Signal on my location was really bad. .keep switching between Band 5 and Band 40

Where did you even find that?? I'm on EM and can't find world mode. Is it buried in another menu? I need to access world mode to access North America LTE bands. I received my second Oukitel after complaining that the bands they say are covered are not listed

I have redmi note 8 pro.
I accidentally changing Worldmode to LtCTG and can't back to default.

MTK engineering World mode error
I am on miui 12.5 Global A11. I have this strange issue. In MTK engineering mode, I changed the world value to 16 and suddenly my 3G gone. Only 4G and 2G. And now When I set the 12 value again, the following error show. The more strange thing...

Dialler > 277634#*# opens the hidden menu
Field Test > Modem Settings > LTE BAND SELECTION > Tap Band 20.
If you're in the range of the 800 MHz the phone switch to it and will ONLY use it (until restart) or until you toggle WCDMA / LTE in the normal settings.
If you're getting No signal, go to manual network selection (do not change to WCDMA/LTE, leave it on LTE) and search for networks. If you don't see 3 RAT 4G, well, you don't have 800 Mhz.

OTA usually doesn't work on modified / rooted ROMS, so it's expected behaviour
ps. just checking. I can select band 20 and 4g works. if i select band 3 (1800) it keeps finding signal and unable to lock despite there being 1800 signal. does selecting band 3 work for you? is there a way of setting 4g only - so it works 800+1800 only ? (i know no volte on 1800)

hi, i have seen your previous guide on how to flash a G4 to work with 3's VoLTE
Is this still the case if i want to use VoLTE on a none 3 purchased handset ? guessing simply flashing the 3 stock ROM is not going to work?

UMTS/HSDPA/3G not connecting on MIUI 8 for anyone else?

I have an issue with every build I've tried of MIUI 8 (Stable versions), but not with the developer versions of MIUI 9.
The phone will not connect to UMTS/3G networks with either sim. LTE works fine, and there's no GSM where I live so I can't test that.
It will connect for a moment when first booting up the phone, then immediately disconnect and stay disconnected. It can't find 3G networks when searching either.
Again, this doesn't happen on MIUI 9 builds, but I figure this big of a bug, they would never release it as stable. Can anyone else let me know if they've had this problem?
Hello, I`m having same issue, here in this way. In town there are many repeaters. Here is no problem, in germany many 4G-Networks are working in band 20 (800 mhz). In areas, where no 4G/lte is possible, the mi mix2 (china stable miui8 and china dev miui9) the mix2 can not connect to 3G/UMTS. A smartphone Redmi note 4 with this SIMCard connects to 3G/UMTS and gets connection data to HSDPA+. The mi mix icon diasappears and there is a "emergency" Icon. Then the mi mix2 connect only to GSM and after 1-2 minutes get Data to EDGE. But at this place it is possible to connect to 3G. I rebooted the device many times, changes sim to other slot. Tried China dev and stable. Last test with XIAOMI.EU and EPICROM for MIX2 are sad. Same issue
Many MIX2-User have this effect. I have this effect on Sim-Cards from provider Telefonica/O2. I have tried 3 Sim-cards from provider O2. No 3G - Connect.
In germanys-forums the is a hint to define "force 3G-Connects". Some user writes, that they do not have this effect with this definition.
Does have XIAOMI a 3G-Bug with new MIMIX2??

The default Setting for this SIM is: LTE/TD-SCDMA/WCDMA... this is almost wrong, because we havent TD-SCDMA in Germany, i ve switched to LTE/UMTS RPL ...this seems to work better with my o2 card.
Sometimes the connection breaks down from LTE or LTE+ to H+ ...but after the break down, i have no data connection. If i activate flight mode and re enable data, i also get H+ but for now with data connecting. This is very frustrating
Also that my Settings to LTE/UMTS are removed after a reboot or i switch to the second sim. Any suggestions to fix it permanent to LTE/UMTS ?
Did anyone tried MI MIX 2 Global - Version?´ Bug exists still there?
I am on 9.1
I set it on LTE/TD-SCDMA/GSM. I live in Germany too and have a O2 card.
GSM is slower than UMTS cause it's older. But it works without problems.
Now I trying with LTE/TD-SCDMA/UMTS. I have to say that I have some problems too.

sim 1 + data card : o2
sim 2 as voice card: D1
if i make a call with sim 1 / D1 my first sim as data sim loose the data connection, even it is connected to a lte network...strange thing today i had a conf call over sim2 for about 4 hours, while this time i didnt recieve any mail or whatsapp.
but if i set sim 2 / D1 as data card and make a voice call, this card wont loose data....strange, maybe a o2 issue?
edit: made a test with D1 as data and if make a call with the o2 card, also d1 loose data instant
I have a new (2.nd) MI MIX 2. And: I have the same Problem. O2 is switching vom GSM/EDGE to UMTS an gets no Connect. Then only "EMRGENCY CALLs". And then GSM again. o2 is provider. roaming is on.
With second SIM (Vodafone) there is no problem. Is there a fix for that problem? One member wrote there is a new "radio". Where to find it?
Same SIM (o2) in a REDMI NOTE 4 (LTE Band 20 800 MHZ) is "ok". It is an MI MIX 2 - Problem!
I have the MIUI 9 Global.
MI MIX2 with O2 and no LTE and no 3G/UMTS??? Joke?

change network to LTE/UMTS PRL ...then it should work better PRL = prefered roaming list; go to settings -> about phone -> tap several times on the info about internal storage -> the network app will appear, now you can change network settings... until next boot, then you have to set it again
maybe mix 2 has a problem with national roaming?! cause o2 uses national roaming -> their own network and the network from e-plus
Yes, the MIX 2 does have issues with switching to anything other than LTE. Even when it says it switched to H or H+ there is actually no reception at all and it takes a few minutes for it to recover. Really annoying, hopefully the engineers fix this issue as soon as possible. Pretty inexcusable bug for such a device.
Hello, Switching to " LTE/UMTS PRL" has the effect, only UMTS/3G-Connections are possible. No LTE/4G. Provider: German O2.
XIAOMI might have to fix this bug.
Q: Has anyone took a Message to [email protected] ?? http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=bugfeedback&fid=5&page=1

LTE/UMTS PRL fixed that for me totaly ... i dont had any issues since them! I am also getting LTE and LTE-A with o2 and i am travelling a lot due to my job in germany.
i think its also problem with o2 and national roaming. if you search for this problem in google, you will find the same issue reports from other devices within in the o2 network. I did never had the same problems with my other D1 card in the same device.
LTE/UMTS does not work for me.
Since yesterday I use LTE/TD-SCDMA/UMTS and it works fine.
Provider: O2 Germany
It looks like 3G/HSPA doesn't work when roaming (possibly local roaming too). LTE works fine. In the UK I can get internet all the time regardless of connection type. I travelled abroad and only LTE worked using my UK SIM. This also happens on AOSP based ROMs since I'm using Resurrection Remix and still experienced the issue.

Samsung Note 10+ Signal Fix Sprint (If Needed)

1.)Remove third party potential threating apps just to be sure.
2.)Always make sure the phones up to date on the latest firmware.
3.)The next step is to go to the dialer ##72786# that forces the phone to reactivate.
4.)Next step go back to the dialer and dial ##3282#
4.2)Go to edit
4.3)Then type 000000
4.4)Then go to LTE
4.5)Then go to band 41 that is enabled and uncheck to disable.
4.6)Then go to band 25 that is enabled and uncheck to disable.
4.7)Then go to band 41PCII that is enabled and uncheck to disable.
5.)Reboot the phone don't expect full LTE service yet there are still some more steps...
6.)Go to settings find VOLTE and enable. Search VOLTE in the search bar to enable it.Swipe right on the button to turn it on. New icon will pop up at the top of the phone if done correctly.
7.)Then go back to the dialer and type ##3282#
7.2)Go to edit
7.3)Then type 000000 again
7.4)Then LTE again
7.5)Then go to band priority
7.6 & 7.7)Set both bands 41 and 25 to the bottom of the list by typing the number 17 on band 25 and 18 on band 41 and that pushes them down the list. Make sure band 26 is set to 1 on the priority list.
7.8)Then turn off your phone and turn it back on.
This fix is broken from a network reset or ##72786# update or Samsung software update. So reapply the fix after each update or network reset

Why are you telling people to put b26 as highest priority. And put b41 as the lowest? B26 is 5×5 for the lowest spectrum and up to 10x10 or maybe 15×15.
While b25 is lowest 10×10 and up.
B41 is maybe TDD 20mhz/40mhz/60mhz up to 160mhz
B41 is really fast.
Its better to let ##scrtn# do the reprogramming and activate the sprint service and leave everything the way it was.
Changing priority or disabling the lte bands do not help the signal fix.
Only power users would put the b41 as the highest priority to have the highest speed. I guess you dont like sprints b41?

There are some areas to where b41 and b25 does not work well in rural areas like in WV for example, if people have roaming issues this fix does work. This helps with battery life. That is why I said (IF NEEDED).

You didnt state this is for rural areas anywhere. It seemed like you meant for all sprint users. Because people like me that live in big cities can use it the wrong way.
Also the sprint phones already have #1 25 #2 26 #3 41 priority as default.
B25 is nationwide and is faster than b26 anyway. The phone and the towers will load balance the service accordingly. So its best to leave it as is.
I think where sprint doesnt have good coverage, im sure most people wont be with sprint at that area. There are smaller carriers that have better coverage for some areas.
For roaming, theres a limit of how much you can roam and it differs by each plan and to whom you roam to.
For me it is 300MB for all carriers except tmobile.
Ive been to rural areas in my state. If i dont have any sprint bands to connect to or have very weak signal, I roam to a diff carrier like US Cellular by itself. You may think itll save battery to change priorities but its the same because it will always want to connect to sprint first.
I just dont want sprint users to take this and lose some of the great benefits of B41.
And also there are some areas that do B25 + B25 carrier aggregation.
This was an issue with the S10 and S10+...I have permanent data loss on.my S10+..little to poor reception away from my wifi...got run around trying to replace it..but got greate deal on trade in for note 10 +...v
I hope I do not have the same issue like this..or will return the phone and go with something else..dare I say even an iphone if I have to

Stop here on my SM-N976N, dialing ##72786# nothing happens.
Maybe someone could help me: I'm on Vodafone, no more VoLTE calls since upgraded from Note 9 no brand to actual model.
VoLTE is active, no doubt.
Tried with another SIM from other carrier: VoLTE logo appeared and eveything works fine.
Any suggest?

lol.. this thread is clearly for sprint users or ppl using their device on sprint with sprint csc..
if the dialer code doesnt work for u then its not allowed by ur carrier/csc.. that or u can enable it after rooting or by changing ur csc
Yep, I can read since I was a child, but this is a forum so it's normal to ask.
Thanx for your answer, the SM-N978N must be NOT bought, definitely.

Well let me tell ya my situation that I'm dealing with maybe we can help each other! Okay so I also have a note 9 N960U that I also can not get VOLTE, the issue is that Sprint never integrated a APK that gives me the VOLTE feature in the Pie Update, but in Oreo they DID. So I wonder if its because of the Android Update and the Vodafone doesnt support VOLTE on the current Android Build that you are on. Its like when Microsoft took DVD Maker of Windows 7 out when you updated to Windows 8 8,1 or 10. I'm trying to get more information and if I come across some more information on XDA to help your cause I will let you know.
I am on sprint. Followed this to the T and got the screenshot of the slow speeds. Followed steps 1-3 to reset the data and got the fast speeds. Not sure about your priority but I guess it can't hurt to try and see if it works for you. You can always reset if it is slow.

i think OP should change the threads' titles reared towards rural people. people take your advice and use it for other ways.
you are spreading wrong info. do you know that you can roam on tmobile lte? it is better than having no lte or just ehrpd.
stop spreading nonsense

Question [5G/LTE Locking Bands] Reward?

Hello! So I got the Pixel 6 Pro and I am coming from Galaxy S20U (Owned Pixel 1/2/3/5)
So on my S20 I can change NR/LTE bands as much as I like without root by using an app or the hidden menu *#2236#
Where I work all day its all concrete walls, so me locking LTE Bands its a must.
I can not do that on my google Pixel 6 PRO and yes I tried *#4636# but those options do not work with me because you can not lock bands.
I am ok If I need to root my 6Pro in order to do this, Will Network Guru do this once rooted? I am willing to include reward $ for whoever helps me with this.
Thank You
I'm sad to say that Network Guru simply won't work because Pixel 6, Pixel 6 Pro uses Shannon Modem for 5G, which is an Exynos modem (if i'm not wrong) and Network Signal Guru requires Qualcomm Modem to work.
**edit: typo**
Under settings__internet__gear wheel next to your carrier and scroll done to preferred network type. Unless you don't have that option.
I'm still trying to figure out diag modes for this phone. I can get the modem and serial devices to show up. Per my conversations with cstark:
resetprop ro.bootmode usbradio
resetprop ro.build.type userdebug
setprop sys.usb.config acm,dm,adb

Everything seems to be controlled by /vendor/bin/modem_logging_control and /vendor/bin/dmd.
Regular START/STOP calls to modem_logging_config from root shell can yield usable logs. We can also get the apps started in special SHANNON_DM or SHANNON_APP modes, but no idea what to do with them.
For example:
modem_logging_control START
modem_logging_control SHANNON_APP
modem_logging_control STOP

Logs saved to /data/vendor/slog/.
The Shannon DM version floating around is too old and I haven't gotten a decent scat setup. Airscreen might work but Network Signal Guru doesn't. No tools for this phone are good at the moment.
And that's the extent of our knowledge at the moment...

I'm sad to say that Network Guru simply won't work because Pixel 6, Pixel 6 Pro uses Shannon Modem for 5G, which is an Exynos modem (if i'm not wrong) and Network Signal Guru requires Qualcomm Modem to work.

I'm still trying to figure out diag modes for this phone. I can get the modem and serial devices to show up. Per my conversations with cstark:

Thank you, I will try to be checking on this if decide not to return the phone. Is Airscreen a Magisk Module?
No, it's a desktop app. There is no band locking.
Can someone tell me the benefits of this mod? Genuinely interested.
Lower frequencies penetrate walls and concrete better than higher frequencies in the spectrum, at the cost of speed.
Locking a 5G/LTE band helps save battery life because it prevents constant hunting for a better signal between bands.
You can try your luck with 'Shortcut Master' app on Google Play. Once opened click on show all apps -> Phone services -> scroll until the bottom and click on band or radioinfo and click on Launch. Then you can change the band and frequency as per your liking.
No wifi at work?
A lot of workplaces have strict firewalls and network policies in place so it's understandable to use your own network connection for non-corporate usage

With this method let's say I choose class 9, it will remain locked?
I believe this is a WCDMA band selection and will have no effect on LTE/5G, am I wrong?

Not sure but I'm really frustrated that I don't get the option to at le last turn off 5G in any way :/

I think you can simply turn off 5G from the settings menu. (You can also set Prefferd Network type to LTEOnly from Radio info... *#*#4636*#*#)
The sad thing is that you can't fix the band in Network Signal Guru (or any other APP).
This may be difficult to do unless Google provides a development tool that supports Shannon modems.
The above looks like something different, aiming more at 'by region or country' to me. Not the traditional band selection found in other devices. It'd be nice to find out if we can systematically program these to hunt on certain LTE/5G bands. I am on a tmobile migrated sprint plan on my p6p. It works great except for that fact that where I live band 26 is garbage. The only solution realy is to find that sweet spot when it swaps to 25 or lock it into the device. So would be nice if the google momos release it, you know, in the spirit of open source, like they initially set out to do so many years ago when android started.
good news everyone. version 4.0.4 of Network Signal Guru has band locking for the pixel 6
