Hello everyone
I have a question about lte band of Chinese version
On Huawei website, we can see that the mate 7 support FDD LTE band 1/2/3/4/5/7/8/20/28. Todays, we can find the Chinese version for sell "limited" to bands 1,3,7.
But what I don't understand if the Chinese version got all band if you use it in another country or does it need a firmware mod to activate the other bands?
I need band 3,7 and 20... Can I buy a Chinese one or not? (2gig/16 would be good)
Thanks
This has been answer in our Q&A thread. Please take a look at recent discussion on this topic.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-7/general/wait-compatible-ascend-mate-7-buy-t2899404
Forum member from Switzerland has reported that the Chinese TL10 works flawlessly and we will hear more news from EU user next week.:fingers-crossed:
And we highly recommend 3 GB RAM, or the premium version. You will notice significant difference when opening multiple APPS.
We will post a root instruction for xda community early next week so that it will be a more fun machine to have.

Hello!
I just came back from a trip to China. Bought my Mate 7 in Shanghai. Its the MT7-UL00 Version.
At the shop they told me it should work in Switzerland. They even installed the Play Store for me (good service).
At the Stop Over in Dubai I had no LTE. So I was a little worried. Now in Switzerland it looks like I have same LTE coverage like I had bevor with my LG G3.
Hope this helps you.

MT7-TL10 Chinese -> European
I just got af Gold Mate 7 (3 bg/32 rom) from China - MT7-TL10.
Its a Chinese version, with Chines text i a few palces (even i chosed Denmark for language) but its also without google or anything - and im living in Europe.
So my question is, how do I get the international version af the software on this phone so I can use it like a normal phone here in Europe?
I would be really thankfull for any help and guidance regarding this issue.
Thank you!
Yep i dreaming of my futur AM7 but for no problem at all like the guaranty, i prefer wait till the european version launch officially. i'm so disappointed the gold version will not sold in europe, oh well the grey/black model will be fine too ^^
the official launch in france will be soon around 12 of november.

You can already buy at amazon.fr, can't you?
they've been selling it since last week. and they already discounted by 20euro in white version yesterday. (looks like it's back to normal price though)
You can buy it EUR 455.70 at amazon.fr now. price dropping so fast. nobody's buying it?
I bought mine on amazon.fr but I have not yet received

I bought the Gold TL10 version from ebay and had the international rom flashed on it. Works fine although i only get 3g hspa with tmobile (which is still pretty fast).
I want to unlock the 4g lte though like the TL09 versions so i cud see how fast the cat6 realli is. Regardless though, this phone is pretty fast to even be in 3g mode.
Can you buy the 3gb ram version from amazon fr?
Also how does warranty work on amazon fr? I live in the uk.
Thanks

It's amazon so warranty usually good if you buy from them. 3gb ram 2gb of ram wont matter much with the Chipset they are using. Feel confident that 2gb will be enough after all the video tests I have seen on YouTube. The 3gb is only the Chinese model which I would not purchase. Get the European model much safer bet.

Hey, I have my MT7 brought over from China. I am using it in the Czech Republic on Vodafone network. I can only get 2G connectivity. No 3G or LTE. in the Settings/Roaming Settings, it identifies my SIM card as "2G" only, and I cannot switch on 4G. I have a brand new nano SIM that should work with our local LTE.
My MT7 model MT7-CL00, build number MT7-CL00V100R001C92B120SP07
Any ideas?

You should inquiry before purchasing. The CL00 version, aka China TeleCom version, only recognizes their specific SIM, otherwise, locked at GSM only. Choose a reputable seller in the future.

Yeah I got this as a little gimmick to play with., but it certainly is a disappointment.
Do you think the CL00 version can be loaded with TL10 firmware? I can see CL00 and TL10 differ dramatically in the network and data connectivity support, and TL10 is what I need.

No. There is no way to unlock the SIM and flashing TL10 ROM will not work either. In addition, CL00 uses an additional chip for CDMA2000, which consumes more batteries (only 2/3 of battery life vs. other versions, stated by HUAWEI's website). If you consider TL10, we have Gold color version in stock.
We cannot help you on this version any more.
Good luck!

have smae issue indeed ... nothing works with me i don,t thin you can,t convert it
I have a north American nexus 6P (H511) which I later found out is missing band 20 which is the band my carrier uses (Vodafone) for LTE as a result I have no LTE/4G coverage with 6P. I also found out that the rest of the world version (H512) has band 20 and band 1 support unlike my version.
I was wondering if it would be possible to flash the radio from the H512 to my H511 and get band 1 and 20 support or wouldn't it work due to missing hardware?
Can anyone tell me if that is possible?

As you might know, the Mi 6 was announced today. The specs look great for the price (see http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/new-product/mobile-phone/xiaomi-mi6-news-release-date-price-features-specifications-3653263/) and I thought I finally found the phone I really wanted.
But then the old story hit me again. No support for LTE band 20. As I live in Germany this means no matter what provider I have, I will be affected with less LTE coverage.
So I created this thread to gather any news that involve the possibility and efforts of unlocking the LTE band 20 on the Mi 6.
I hope there are maybe similarities with the ongoing efforts of unlocking the bands of the Mi 5 (http://en.miui.com/thread-242834-1-1.html or here https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5/how-to/progress-trying-to-unlock-bands-t3337476).
When the Mi 6 is shipped, I hope this will get some attention and we may find a way to unlock it together. :fingers-crossed:
I have the Mi Note Pro and I never spotted anyone succeeding in unlocking band 20.
I live in France and band 20 is one of the 3 main bands but I never suffered any need for band 20. I even had a Sony Z5 premium which had all French bands and I had to switch to 3g because it wouldn't receive well when I am in bed.
Depending on your carrier if you have just another band and live in a city, not having band 20 is not a deal breaker in my humble opinion.
If you really need it I wouldn't wait for sure for a way to unlock band 20.
Mi6 can work with AT&T network?

Yes that is a valid point. As I live in Berlin I won't have any problems here. But since I travel around a lot for work countryside coverage would be a good benefit. But as you mentioned band 20 won't stop me from getting the Mi6.
This thread is just if anybody comes up with a good idea on how this could be done. Just as a 'bonus'.
The most active in unlocking lte bands are people in the OnePlus forum as far as I know.

Because it needs to do a lot, such as patents, internal structure, and so on.
Maybe Xiaomi note3 will behave better.
Band 20 in mi5 CAN NOT be unlocked. It is hardware limited. Please read thread mi5, page 76.
You only need schematic diagram, then you can see.

It depends on power amplifier and rf modules. In some case it can be unlocked with software or hardware changing.
If somebody find which power amplifier and rf modul are used in mi6, let me known, i tell you if unlock possible.

But still shouldn't the network setup be kept stock... I mean why waster resources on a freaking modem... When u can divert them to something else....
And if I am not wrong Qualcomm gives the chipset/modem with all the bands unlocked.. quite like apple .. hence making s truly global phone

You could say the same for Oneplus's global and China variant. They must have their reasons. I'm sure everyone, let alone, Xiaomi, know that they don't benefit for locking the bands. So, there's no point speculating on why and rather to just accept the obvious that it was not for the US market or any other country that It's not being sold officially.
Hi,
yesterday I got my new 4GB/64GB Pro3.
Surprisingly it's branded Lex728 instead of Lex720.
Does anybody know the difference?
More important: Is it SW compatible (Rom/TWRP) to X720?
EUI seems newish: 5.9.020S
Greetings

Hi mike. I think its compatible. Look at the rom of tora at leeco.ru forums. Its compatible with the x720,x727 and x728. I bought one of this but it didnt arrive. I think one more week to arrive.

I'm interested in the differences between x720 and x728 though. I can't find relevant informations anywhere...
Is the same as x720 but not Lte Band 20
LTE Bands 1/2/3/4/5/7/8/12/17/29/30/38
Hi,
that would be really bad!
Any chance to switch band20 on using a (Qualcom) tool?
I had a qick look using CPU-X and found no differences to X720 so far.

Looking with Network Signal Guru from Playstore.You can see had Band 20 or not.But you must be a rooted Phone
No B20, that sucks. And for the same price as a x720 I imagine...
Hi,
today I tried with a LTE-enabled SIM,
and network signal guru showed the use of Band20 ?!?
If it can use Band20, whats the real difference to Lex720 then?
Sent from my Elephone P8000 using XDA Free mobile app
I have this phone since yesterday.
The real bands of the phone are LTE 1, 3, 7.
I flashed other roms like Grossoshop, Tora, Turbo and in the signal guru app appear all the bands, like 4, 20, etc.
The problem is im in a country with band 4 and the phone never worked with LTE. Only 3G.
I think this phone didnt have the hardware for work in LTE 4, 20, etc.
If you will buy a lepro3 buy x727, x720 or x722. Never x728
It could be modem matter. Maybe changing the modem (it's a software driver) with one that will enable band 4 (from Lex 720 or 727) you might solve the problem. Try asking an experienced developer, I think it can help you easily!

I tried that. With x727 modem--- no simcard detected.
With x720 modem---simcard detected but only 3G.
I think its more that a hardware limitation.
So does it have band 20 or not...
It is currently sold on banggood (x728 version) and they say it has band20 and all the bands x720 has. Does ROMs for x720 work on x728 ?
Roms for Lex 720 are working for Lex 727 and 728 (same hardware). If something related to specific model is not working as you expected (2 sim support or band/modem related) is to see case by case and (perhaps) there is a solution searching in this forum. Cheeers!

Where did you buy it? On aliex there are two "global" phones. One is "global rom" version which does not have B20 support (it is actually a chinese version with global rom pre-installed by the seller), and the other is "global version" of the phone which supports B20.
Search on the forum, there were attempts of unlocking B20.
I buy it on Amazon
Check on the box to see if it supports B20

Sorry your question ist very silly...
Global Version has band 20. In Germany band 20 is the Most used on. If you bought it from Amazon Germany you have band 20. If Not you can send it Back.
An No, its not unlockable. Maybe we can Help you to unlock your VW Polo to Porsche gt?!
A question is always silly when you know the answer. I didn't know that band 20 is the most used in Germany, like in France!
And why do you talk about polo and Porsche ? I didn't ask to boost the phone performances. If i want a "Porsche", than i just buy one! I know that i didn't buy one.
You can lock or delete this post if you want
Same situation here. I bought a Xiaomi Redmi note 7 pro, and it doesn't have the B20 band. My fault.
Some hope I can solve it with a software-based solution (e.g. installing an app, or flashing a custom ROM without a Windows PC) or it is really an hardware based problem ?
