Band 12 is not a prereq for VoLTE. VoLTE works fine on band 4 too. VoLTE is a prereq for band 12 (officially speaking, you can enable it without it) so T-Mobile can comply with 911 regulations.

I just downloaded "MTK engineering mode start" from playstore and enabled band 12. seems to be working great on my stock oem build
BLU_R0011UU_V12_GENERIC
MTK engineering mode start does not require root. (it might require developer mode, not sure though that is the only thing I have done to the new stock rom I installed. and yes my phone is a amazon variant that I changed to stock variant by installing the stock rom.)

VoLTE(voice over LTE) is what people want, but there's a lot more to it than just enabling band 12. It also requires software and certification that Blu hasn't completed yet. So, while you may have band 12, you don't have voLTE. Blu says on their web site that a voLTE update will be available "shortly after launch".
There is a way to activate B12 on BLU R1 HD before the official update comes out. Please note that you will not have access to VoLTE services while you are on B12 with this device until the official support of B12 is enabled. This might affect your ability to receive and make calls and limit your access to E911 services if no GSM/UMTS coverage is available in the area. Only data services will be provided when there is no GSM/UMTS coverage available.
Can you please tell which bands were also available to be enabled except 12 ?
Thanks

Does your phone keep the band 12 after a reboot though? I've also gone into engineering mode via Gravity Box (Xposed module) and it enables the band 12 that way but after reboot it does not stay enabled.
I tried searching for a tasker command that could automatically run on bootup to enable band 12 but no luck yet..

We did NOT get a band 12 update with the OTA. That's why everyone was cautioned not to take the OTA because it locks up the phone and disables use of SP Flash Tools. So at this time, there is no way to root or flash a phone that took the 6.6 update.
There is apparently an update
Apparently it is happening. Though, my phone says, up to date, when I check (so, may be not for everyone). (I am new, so it does not let me post a link, but, just google "r1 hd volte" and look in news)

Then your provider uses a band/frequency which is probably not supported by the S5.

Mate there is no option to activate LTE, its your provider who has to provide you the key (i.e convert the signals you receive to the band/frequency that of a 4G).
Contact your provider and ask them to activate 4G for your connection. I had to do this procedure for mine too.
You wouldn't expect to see LTE options if your current carrier doesn't support LTE. Can you provide a link to confirm that your carrier is using LTE?
The sm-g900f handset itself supports a set of LTE bands. Possibly your carrier firmware has disabled LTE if they don't use LTE. Again we need you to tell us which carrier the phone was originally sold through and what carrier you are currently using the phone on.
Or just reflash to another 900F carrier firmware, choosing a carrier that is known to use LTE. You should do a search and find the appropriate PIT file for the new carrier and flash that concurrently with the firmware.
Alternately, do a search to find the threads that explain how to use service mode to check your LTE band preferences.

Be sure permissions of persist.radio.lteon are set to rw and then to “true” inside this file, after altering the file save the file and make it read-only.
Reboot your phone, now you will see and be able to pick the option “LTE/WCDMA/GSM (auto connect)” in Network Mode menu
Important: before altering ANY file on your phone be sure you have a copy of the original, unaltered file!!!
I even found: find the file with this EXACT name 'persist.radio.lteon' and delete it.
Becareful with this i perfer to chance it name & loction not delete it.. (onlt if this first meton didn't work...)

Hey all, I am a noob to rooting and unlocking, but quite tech capable. So treat me with kid gloves.
I have a prepaid USA Verizon Motorola Luge, and I want to use it in Canada on the Telus network. Supposedly the Luge is the same as the RAZR M. From what I read, this phone is quad band and "should" do LTE On the Telus network (I hope, I hope)
I tried a Telus SIM card and get the message "The SIM card is from an unknown source". A bit of reading tells me that I need to delete some verizon specifics files, but I first must root the device.
Here is some device info:
Model: XT907
System Version 184.46.10.XT907.Verizon.en.US
Android 4.4.2
Kernel Version 3.4.43-g562f212
So my questions:
(1) Will this device really work on the telus network? Everyone says Verizon is CDMA, and telus is phasing out CDMA. But then I read Verizon is 4G LTE on 1700/2100 - which is the same a telus - I am very confused.
(2) Can I root this device using the Droid RAZR M instructions/root files? I am using instructions from adroid devices web site ( I am restricted from posting the link)
thanks for the help.
Try Towelroot first, compatible with RAZR M's .10 firmware, so it should also be compatible with yours.

That kernel build date has been patched so Towel Root wont work. As of now, there isn't any other root methods for locked bootloaders. Sorry.
It will not hurt to try towel root though. I agree odds are it is the newest kernel but it's possible they compiled the old kernel on a second date.

You can use it on GSM network (outside US) without root. You'll just get the message "SIM from unknown source", after every boot.

Thanks for the tip. I did as you say, plugged in the SIM, got it registered with Telus, and now it all works fine.
It runs in global mode, so I am not sure how fast the data rate is - I will soon find out.
thanks
I ran speed test and its at least 3X faster than my other phone running - so it looks good. Looks like neither of them is running 4G/LTE, ah well.

This works for the SIM nag: Disable VzwPhoneService.apk using V3.4 Debloater. Additionally, this very nice app can clean things up considerably, but it cannot actually remove anything due to lack of root. Credits & Kudos to Gatesjunior for the debloater - suh-weet!
Next best thing to root I suppose
okay guys, just to let you know, some guys from russian forum 4pda.ru published this saying that they achieved getting permament root on 4.4.2 with locked boot and after they sort out how they've got this, some instructions will be published in next few days.
some more proofs:
screens from locked xt907
as soon as they publish instructions about how to do this, i will post it here, or mb in new topic to make it more noticeable.
upd2: luge rooted too, but some steps are different.
upd2.5: guys doing this said that there is still no way of unlocking boot, they've bricked one device already trying do this
upd3: they "killed" one moto on february 7 and still trying to revive it, only after this they gonna post instructions, because it's not safe to use.

If you flash it, possibly. There's no harm in flashing to find out and flashing back if you aren't satisfied.

Sounds like you're just in a bad coverage area, but there might be a certificate required for VoLTE on 3 that isn't on the EE firmware, not sure how its implemented outside of the US

Your phone should connect to the best band provided by your network by default, I don't think it's going to matter what European firmware you use. If you are on Three I would flash the Three firmware anyway so you can use VOLTE when it comes out.

You will have to factory reset your phone because you will get a small system update from Three, which I think enables the 800Mhz network.
Not sure if it supports VOLTE but my phone doesn't show the VOLTE arrows but I have made calls while on 4G.
Or you can try to connect to the 800Mhz 4G network by going to a area where the 1800Mhz 4G signal is weaker.

Or you can try to connect to the 800Mhz 4G network by going to a area where the 1800Mhz 4G signal is weaker.

A Marshmallow update should solve this as it uses Android's generic fingerprint API that supports 3rd party apps.
Will it support L-22 variant?
What is the current status of cyanogenmod development for our device ?
Please port Cyanogenmod for the KIW-L22 model as well.
All the 16/2 models should be supported eventually since they are almost the same. (Correct me if I'm wrong)

Cosmo, thank you for your help in attempting to keep the threads clean.
Have you been able to build CM using the manifest provided in the dev thread? I have been unable to build in Ubuntu 15.10 and Mint 17.3 Mint gets a lot further than ubuntu.

I am running Mint 17.3. And after installing all the packages mentioned in aosp and cm guides, it builds just fine. And yes, I copy-pasted my roomservice.xml to that post.

Maybe I should switch to Mint instead of Ubuntu 14.04. Not sure why that would have such a huge impact on building, but it's worth a shot.
Well, I was able to build with the latest sources today!
Is anyone else having trouble downloading apps from Google Play over wifi? I tried wiping the cache for both Google Play and Google Framework but that didn't help.
Finally got CM12.1 built and installed.....................
I've attached a couple pics. I can confirm that dual sim functionality seems to work. I haven't tested it fully yet but can switch data/voice and sms between the two sims and l have sent txt messages and made phone calls with both. The one issue I see at the moment is that the number 2 sim defaults to 2g data and won't switch to lte.
I know this is possible with the stock huawei rom but it seems like cm12.1 only allows lte on the 1st sim slot.
**Update**
After a little more testing, I can get LTE or 3G on Sim 2 if I set Sim 1 to 2G. Only one sim on LTE or 3G at a time.

I just flashed the open gapps version of gapps and the few installs I've done seem to have gone fine.

I got a weird error when choosing to update some apps from the my apps screen but when i went to each individual apps playstore page and selected update, it then gave me a cancel/accept permissions dialog and installed just fine at that point. installed GPS Test and Ingress with no problems.
I used the full version of gapps. Although, I do have data via my sim, I was watching the traffic arrows during the install and they we're on the wifi icon so I assume they installed via wifi. let me turn on airplane mode and try to install something else.
* No issues installing apps from the play store via wifi with airplane mode on to disable cellular data. Just installed wink app

I don't know if it's a right place to ask .
Can you say when we can expect it's release .
Fedup of stock really .
And congrats u did a great job , stock too supports LTE only on one sim and other on 2g .so it's common not an issue either .
Open gapps super, full and aroma versions are not allowing to sign up even on clean wipe on stock .
I flashed and tested all (tried getting enough space by removing previous gapps (not core gapps) ) .
The other one's , full ,mini , micro , nano and Pico are working better and the RAM usage by them is pretty good.
Updating my phone now, just got an over the air update. It says its version 7.4.2, 372.62 megs, and in the info section it says it includes Band 12, VoLTE, and security updates. For those on stock, you guys may want this, especially those on T-Mobile.
I just tried to update my stock phone and it says no update available.

I still haven't received an OTA update. Are you a stock BLU r1 HD or Amazon variant?
and is 7.4.2 Nougat? just asking because I would think the 7 would mean the version of android and Marshmallow is 6.

It appears it only provides the security patch, band 12 & VoLTE. Android remains at 6.0.

So I've noticed that when I'm at work on band 12 I have full bars on 4G LTE. However it keeps reverting to band 2 where I barley have a 4G LTE signal. Isn't it supposed to connect to the strongest signal automatically? I have to go into MTK and disable band 2 for it to connect to band 12.

still no update here~ and yes I would think it would work on the stronger/strongest singnal, but then again this is "new" on the BLU r1 HD and there could be some bugs.
The update completely messed up my phone. My R1 is a completely bone stock prime version phone. Over half of my apps disappeared, and play store is not working at all to reinstall them. I tried uninstalling updates to the playstore from system settings, but that isn't working either. I hope I don't have to do a factory reset and start all over.
Any ideas of what else I can try?

Nevermind. All of my apps that were on the SD card are what disappeared and wouldn't reinstall. As soon as I moved just one of the apps back to the system storage, the rest reappeared.
Stock phone. Got the update last night. Went well. Wireless Update is now v5.5. Is band 12 & VoLTE of any extra value on ATT?
Edit: Guess it can improve voice calls on the same network.

BTW, if you're on Airvoice like me, and maybe other MVNOs like H2O, you have to call and have LTE activated.

Here's a link on it as well. Apologies for the late inclusion.
Prime/non-Prime update
From what I've been able to gather, this update only applies to the Amazon Prime variants.
...and I literally just converted to the non-Prime ROM via ColtonDRG's guide. Now I'm stuck on v12 without VoLTE (what I really want/need) unless I go back to the Prime ROM I'm going to bed and hoping that this all gets sorted out sooner than later.
still cant get the update

Yes, it has been stated several times this is only for prime.
Nonprime users are sol, I have been running this update for a few hours now.

VoLTE is a value for ATT also, not sure if Band 12 will help AT&T subscribers though unless they have some roaming agreements which is possible.
I am stock phone and still haven't received the update.

I was hoping an official update for V12 will be released but it seems BLU don't really care, while amazon is pushing needed updates.
I guess it will be time for me to convert my V12 to V7.4.2 when a safe, clean and open method is available.
