[Q] Any Nexus 4 China Mobile users here? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I am using nexus 4 with my China Mobile sim card.
As far as you know, China Mobile do not support International 3G/4G networks. They are only running TD-SCDMA which do not support by nexus.
The signal on my nexus 4 is not so stable. It sometimes lost signal and wont come back unless I switch to fly mode on and off.
Also the EDGE data is worse than iphone. The iphoen users can navigate website well I do not have any data connections.
I didn't root my neuxs now. Is there any suggestions? like root the phone and use some other base band. etc...
Thanks & regards

Well you could root and attempt using an earlier baseband such as .33 although it may easier to attempt to switch carriers.

how about choose only 2G mode in your network settings, if the 3G is meaningless for you

Is it working on 2G only?

I am heading to China soon, and want to use China Mobile on my LG Nexus 4 as well.

I'm using it and I don't have problems.
Well...it's China mobile and you only have edge.
For Google services...at times it is like that.
PS.
I'm on stock 4.2.2 and rooted
I have full bar signal in my area
Anything not china = relatively slow

Hi, I suggest you choose China Unicom if you want high speed data. China Mobile only support TD-SCDMA which nexus 4 does not support.

[Official] Galaxy Note 2 Discussion China

Hi,
This thread is for Chinese or people who live in China. You can discuss problem related to the Chinese version of the phone.
In China we have the N7100/N7105 and N7102 versions
Re: [Official] Galaxy Note 2 for Chinese user
If some of you get the problem "NOT REGISTERED ON NETWORK" after flashing a custom ROM here is the solution(thanks to zuleamu.
Well to be honest zuleamu found the solution but it was there all along on this thread from Ariza27->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1918601
When you use Ariza27 solution don't be stiff and press the THANKS button.
Not a lot of Chinese users here.
Well, Chinese users usually prefer forums in Mandarin. I think the problems of the N7102 are pretty well documented in the N7102 thread. Any news if Samsung China has done anything to solve them?

Well if you know it's a fake, there is not much we can do for you here.
I live in mainland China (Beijing) and own the GT-N7100; my unit is the international version from Hong Kong to be more precise.
The guy who sold the phone to me (a friend's friend...) said that it was lock-free and that I would be able to use any SIM card in it.
While it didn't matter too much at first, it does now. I bought a China Telecom SIM card hoping it would work but it doesn't seem to.
I don't know anything about phones to be honest, but I'm usually okay with electronics and gadgets and I've been playing around for a bit.
My problem is the following: When I scan for network, I am only able to find CMCC (China Mobile) and China Unicom networks. I tried changing some stuff in the settings and playing with the *#197328640# menu, following my friend's advice, but it didn't help.
Is that specific model incompatible with China Telecom networks and unable to use CDMA2000? (It's supposedly unlocked/sim free....)
My baseband version is N7100BUALI8 and the build number is JRO03C.N7100ZSALJ2.
As I said, I don't understand phones too well yet. I read those forums a bit but I'm still confused.
Is my modem not adapted to mobile networks in China? Do I need to change settings somewhere?
I didn't root the phone either by the way.
Please Haaaalp!
Hey, in reference to the China Telecom...I am not sure that you will be able to access that network, I am not sure about the technology that they use. I know that you can use EDGE with either China Mobile or China Unicom, but, I know that Telecom sometimes uses some lesser-known standards for 3G. I have never actually tried to use their GSM network, as over my 10 years here, I have never had access to it. I don't know how helpful that is...
I also use N7100 (International Unlocked Version) in Shanghai. I only have access to China Mobile (2G) and China Unicom (3G).
CDMA is not a GSM compatible technology.
Rooting only has to do with the file structure, nothing to do with the modem on the phone.
Anyways, I hope something I said helps.

Cda9er is right above. China Telecom doesnt use GSM technology as long as i think as they are using CDMA for their network.
China mobile - GSM for 2G but TD-SCDMA for 3G
China Unicom - GSM for both 2G and 3G (Perfect for our internation GT-N7100)
China Telecom - CDMA for 2G and 3G (I think)
So you can either use 2G china mobile as i am using or use 3G from China Unicom. Hope this helps.

I'd like to thank both of you for clarifying that! Exactly the answer I was looking for.
I had the feeling that it had to do with the technology used by the different phone companies.
I've been with China Unicom for a year now but I find their connection very unreliable.
Their 3G plans are kind of expensive and the network has a lot of weak/blind spots... I'll probably resell this phone and get another one compatible with China Telecom.
Thanks for all the replies guys!
Re: [Official] Galaxy Note 2 for Chinese user
TD-SCDMA is China mobile home grown 3G. You need their own phone to use their 3G and it's not as fast as the China Unicom. Normal N7100 won't have 3G on their network.

Sounds good, so I assume it's ok to purchase just a sim on it's own and do you have to pay upfront for the whole 12 months ?.

No need to pay 12 months in advance. But you need to go at China Unicom. If you buy a Sim card on these little shop you don't have 3G. You need to register with your passport at China Unicom.

Actually the Sim cards from the little shops are not bad, but you will have to go to Unicom anyway to activate the 3G so it's better to go right away, sometimes they have specials.
N7105
What about N7105 which suppose to be a 4G LTE phone? Can N7105 get 3G or 4G data in China? Seems China Mobile Hong Kong has 4G LTE. Does China Mobile or other cell phone company in mainland China have 4G LTE?

Mate 7 TL10 only getting HSPA with TMobile

I decided to order the Chinese TL10 version of the phone and im only able to get 3g HSPA on the t-mobile network. One thing i must say though is that even though it says HSPA, i am still getting 4G comparable speeds when im using it and it hasnt disappointed in connectivity. This phone is freakn fast so im anxious to see how much faster it'll get on 4G. Can you guys point me in the right direction?
If you are based in USA, specially T-Mobile use FDD B4, aka AWS, and the Chinese version does not support it.
Good news you receive HSPA+.
thank you for sharing this information

Even though the Ascend Mate 7 is available primarily outside of North America, this unit was still able to connect to LTE networks on T-Mobile and AT&T. It does struggle with maintaining the connection from time to time, but the mobile network experience has been reliable for the most part. Call quality is also good, with calls coming in quite clear at both ends of the line.

Once we have the international version rom for the TL10, we should be able to flash it and open up all the other bands in the radio, that are enabled in the tl09
Not really related to this phone but is it possible by any means to enable WCDMA frequencies in TDCdma phone? Thanks in advance.

The Chinese MT7-TL10 comes with both WCDMA and TD-CDMA. For some models that come with TD-CDMA only, there is no way to have CDMA, for instance, P7-L05.

Using Exynos S7 Edge on T-Mobile

Hi, I've only ever used the carrier-supplied phones on their networks. However, I'm thinking of getting the international version of the S7 Edge due to the Exynos processor. I'm wondering about the following though:
1. Will network performance be ideal? ie. Could some missing band support mean I don't get full speed?
2. How will updates pushed by T-Mobile work? I understand there will be an update for the new 4x range LTE band which has better building penetration. Would an international variant of the phone on T-Mobile receive such an update AND/OR be able to make use of the new band?
Thanks,
Steven
Network performance should be fine as long as the variant you pick up has proper bands.
Updates will be pushed by Samsung instead of Tmobile with an unlocked variant.

Do you think the difference is really worth it if there is even a difference?
From what I've seen one is better with certain things and the other is better with other things but even then the difference is very small.

I've been thinking of selling my tmobile s7 edge and get the international one. I switched from an iPhone 6 plus to the s7 edge, and my god... This thing is a beauty. The only thing I miss from ios is the emoji, and that is the sole reason why I desperately need to root my device haha
Edit: I'm still new to the Android scene but if samsung push the update instead of tmobile, does that mean the international variant will get the update much earlier than the tmobile version?

Perhaps you work in a large warehouse with poor cell signal or a large complex building such as a hospital. Perhaps your house is at the edge of coverage where signal is unstable. Plenty of reasons why wifi calling is useful for many people.
Wifi calling is not great but if you're in an area with poor indoor coverage, that's the only option.
My office just happens to be in a dead spot. When I walk outside, I have full bars. Even the tmobile repeater only picks up 2 bars. We have stable wifi so wifi calling works best. Sometime package drop affects phone quality issue but that's the nature of VoIP.
T-mobile Wi-Fi calling is a must for my phone. Tmobile service is not existent in hospitals, office buildings and sometimes on the other side of a tree.
I keep watching tekhd thread in international to see if that is one of the "T-Mobile" rom parts he gets working.

I have the euro version on tmobile, and my speeds are the same as with the U.S version, also I live in nyc where tmobile service is great so I never use wifi calling. I do miss volte though.
so you get LTE speed and everything else, except VOLTE and wifi calling and oh samsung pay ( but android pay will do) right? Because I ordered 1 from amazon so we'll see
Any reason why would wifi calling not work on Tmobile? I was able to enable and use it on my N6P so I don't see why it would be different. If I believe the international version forum, the most recent update enabled it and numerous users report using it on other carriers.
Exynos Lte icons
Hello this might seem dumb but i can't find the answer anywhere. In the past i have owned phones that did not show lte on t-mobile and would instead show HSPA+ now on my s7 exynos it just shows 4g and when making a call it goes to the hspa+. Is that how the exynos versions show lte or is mine not picking up lte. Or how can i check to make sure it is running lte. Thanks in advance and from personal experience i enjoyed using my exynos s7 a lot more then my s7 edge from tmobile. The exynos runs a lot smoother.

Yes, it is LTE. You can check in the settings, phone info area or with an app to switch network data type (in which you can chooses LTE only, etc.)

OK got 4g until I changed sim data then went back stuck on 3g again

Settings > All settings > Dual SIM settings > Mobile networks > Access Point Names - make sure your APN is correct, you should be able to Google the correct settings.
By the way, EE is about twice the speed of 3...
I had issues with Three when I was just in the UK. I was getting LTE however the signal was weak and barely worked. My O2 and EE cards worked fine though and stayed connected. I double checked the apn and they were correct, I'm thinking that Three's service is just horrid.
Are you sure you got the European Version?

Not sure where you're getting that info from, but the US version has the LTE bands that Three uses, which is bands 3 (1800) and 20 (800). I was also checking the bands using LTE discovery while I was in the UK with the US version and it was hitting the bands just fine. O2 works using the same bands and my service was great.

I'm on Axon 7 US, LTE is working fine on Three UK.
It might be my imagination but I think I even have one more bar on my LTE connection than on my old phone (Moto X Style) at the same location.
The only issue I have with it is for some reason it says 4G on the navigation bar when it's a HSPA+ connection. And when it's actually 4G it says 4G LTE. :/

4g is not ok on this phone with three.
Note 5 -83db on 3g 25mb/s speed test
Axon 7 - -97 to -110db 5mb/s speed test
note 5 -109db LTE 64.6mb/s speed test
Axon 7 no data as never connects to 4g for more than 2 seconds
However on vodafone both phones signals seem the same but three there is no contest the axon 7 is nearly unusable i have regular drop outs, full signal loss, having to put into flight mode out of flight mode to get a web page to load. I will be sending this phone back for a dual sim note 7 believe it or not a phone needs signal first, features second this "phone" got it the wrong way round shame really because if the signal was good this phone would annihilate the note 5 or note 7.

RELIANCE JIO 4G SIM ( INDIA ) Nexus 4 Issue..

Recently I bought a Reliance Jio Sim for my nexus 4. But When I plugged it in, It doesn't register on any network.
Anybody knows how to make it work..
I tried changing Cellphone network in Settings to LTE. (didnt work)
I also tried 2nd method which i saw in one of Unbox Therapy Video.

Our Nexus 4 is an 3G device even if you switch it to LTE(4G) it wont register, because Jio and all those other 4G sim in India uses different Band than aboard carriers.

Which band does 4G network in US work on ..?
Taken from Quora:
Reliance holds the license for 2300 MHz spectrum all over the country plus, 800 MHz spectrum in 10 circles and 1800 MHz spectrum in 6 circles for all kinds of services. 1800 MHz band is one of the most popular bands for deploying LTE services across the world, due to considerable advantages over 2300 MHz band. Around 44% of global 4G networks are deployed over 1800 MHz spectrum.

Swapnil .. 4G wont work in our device.. Only 1-2 bands are supported on our nexus 4 ..
New 4G band auction is going to happen very soon .. Maybe then we can get 4G from some carrier..
But its not worth it .. As i have read somewhere the antennae is there in phone but not the amplifier... So you'll get very weak signals all the time and it'll drain your battery very fast..

Even though you have Nougat on your phone, the modem is still the old one (because you might be knowing that Google doesn't support this phone since last 2 years i.e. after lollipop).
And as I mentioned earlier in my post, JIO can be used on Nexus 4, see this post on facebook.
What Nougat ROM do you have BTW?
Nitin
Is LTE really working on Nexus 4 in India? If so, on what carriers? If someone would be kind enough to confirm. Its just that, other than one person everyone is saying no. Really like my Nexus 4, don't want to buy a new phone
PS: Haven't bought a 4G sim yet, just waiting for confirmation.
I came to know that it only works in LTE band 4; and this band is not used in India. So LTW WILL NOT WORK in India. Don't know why that guy posted that on facebook (to which I linked on last page)
Nitin
Nexus 4 doesnt support TD LTE even after flashing hybrid modem. heck it doesnt even support remianing LTE bands. so no go
This really sucks guys, considering we would have achieved free services till 31st dec

Shocked to read this. Expectations from a device released in late 2012. But i think you can try multiboot kitkat/jellybean for LTE hacks with mm/n till dec 31.
My N4 is on your build NitrogenOS 7.1.1 but Jio ? Have you tried jio on N4?

Have you personally tried Jio on N4?
I follow your NitrogenOS releases and was happy to see the LTE recommendation in the settings.But today I've tried jio sim on my N4, the device has shown the Jio 4G but with a warning, NO SERVICE should I have to tweak something in the phone information provided by *#*#4636#*#* ??

Unfortunately 4G/ LTE can not be used on Nexus 4 in India (I think the post on FB to which I linked was misleading)

Fine, we're only left with an option to upgrade our hardware ??? 4G on N4 is only possible when some network carriers get band 4 1700/2100 AWS
see this
Ok...so u cant use jio...its ok...take 4g 'IDEA' sim ...recharge I with 4g one month plan......then turn this sim on in any 4g mobile.....use some internet...then take it out out and put it in any 3g phone....u will be able to use free calling feature and 1gb daily internet on 3g speed.....
