Network Speed Identicator on status bar? - ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers

I have a question, does anyone have an option to show network speed on their status bar? Im with A2017G with 7.1.1 B04 and I don't have it, even after clearing cache... But other user is actually reporting that he have it under display settings o.o

Yes, i have it. Mine is the Chinese version though.

Looking at ur network network identicator (4g is like above the signal strength icon) i will bet that the person who gave me screenshot has chinese version aswell, thanks

Is any possibility to enable show network speed on a2017g, like on last picture?

I installed Internet speed meter lite app from the Play store. It can show your network speed in notification tray.

I know for like that apps, but I thought for stock (ROM) option in mifavour.

No such option on A2017G model. It would be nice to have it. Had it on Lenovo P2.

My note 3 with uae ROM was showing 4g in status bar, when I flashed Poland ROM it starts showing lte, means it's a region specific, some shows lte some 4g.

What is the work around then? Any way I can have LTE reflected in the status bar
why do you care ? youre getting the speed anyway regardless of what is shown in the bar.

Buddy, LTE and 4G is the same! 4th generation mobile network. If you've rooted your phone it's easy, just install gravity box and switch to LTE icon, done. It's just the icon, if it shows 4G your're connected to a LTE network!
Comprehensive list of ROMs for N910C?
Does anyone know of a site or thread that lists all of the available ROMs for the SM-N910C? The Phone INFO Samsung app shows it has a UAE ROM, but the default language on first boot is UK English. I'm having the same weird issues with the connectivity icon, and it would be nice to try some different regional firmwares.

Huawei mate 8 Full Active proof

Calling via sim 2 while data still working on sim 1
In this case the phone call through SIM 2 uses the GSM network.
As indicated in the specs, only one 3G/4G connection at a time can be supported.

This is very good news this means that I don't have to carry around d 2 phones anymore for my business. What app is that that shows the connection speed in the notification bar up top? That could be useful.

MHA-L29C567B167 BIG update for USA Version spotted.

Big update for the USA version spotted. MHA-L29C567B167
Updates include:
This update optimizes the drawer homescreen display.
Adds a feature, which enables you to send and receive group messages when you use a SIM card without MSISDN.
Adds a feature, which displays contact names in group messages for a richer experience.
Optimizes the drawer homescreen display for better user experience.
Fixes an issue where you cannot use Google Voice when using the SIM card of a certain carrier.
It's currently installable/rebrandable via a paid service, but not able to be installed any other way yet.
Edit: I am currently rebranding and installing it, so if anyone wants to know anything about it, let me know. I'm in Japan right now so I can't tell you any America-specific carrier features, but otherwise, feel free to ask anything.
Did they added more choice for fonts?
Do the messages appear when using a different wallpaper other than the OEM ones?
Changes in the camera?
Does "Ok, google" work when the phone is with the screen off?
Immersive mode where you do not see the home, back etc buttons until you swipe up?
Thanks!
I've got it installed:
http://imgur.com/a/1qwGN
So far I notice that the US version uses google as default keyboard and not swiftkey or swype. Otherwise, it's too early to know if there are any major differences.

I don't know what the original font choices were so I don't know.
The camera seems the same as before. No 10x zoom strangely, just 6x.
OK Google only works with screen on or device charging.
No immersive mode.
Good to know we'll a full ROM for your service or others that pop up.

Any noticeable changes to the drawer homescreen? Ability to make 5 icons across the app drawer?
I need a copy of the offline full rom, if you have it available PM me. I need it for testing on my KangVIP Slim rom and I would like to extract the system etc and make a US based ROM. I'll return the phone before I pay to rebrand it back to the US version. I have a week left to send it back. I printed out the return shipping label last night. I'm 75% sure I'm sending it back. The phone itself is great but the software is not. The more I pick up my Mi Max and start to use it the more and more I hate EMUI.

The kernel was built on February 9, so it's actually the newest update in terms of build date. But it seems Huawei is going in a slightly different direction for features in the US firmware.
I installed it and am now using it, so I'll report regarding anything I notice that differentiates it from the other international models.
Hi I have the US model MHA-L29C567B138 , is the update you mentioned in your post a future OTA update for this model ? I tried checking it, but no dice. ?

As mentioned in the original post, it is currently not being pushed to phones or signed for installation by Huawei, and therefore cannot be installed on phones right now without a paid service like FunkyHuawei. In the future, if you have the US model, you will likely get it as an OTA update. It's anyone's guess when, though.
Is there a difference in LTE bands between the US and other versions? My wife has a U.S. Version and I currently have L29C636B158 and places where she has 4 bars of LTE I only will get H+. I've checked APN settings and they are identical so it's not that. I just purchased a US version and am going to sell the one I have now but I'm more so wondering for down the line if I flash a custom rom if there is anything I'll need to do to preserve that LTE band from the US version.

No, there's no LTE band difference. I took a Chinese model to the US and got reception on T-Mobile the whole time with no issues over New Years. All of the same US LTE bands are supported by all versions.
But by any chance were you on T-Mobile in a Band 12 area? That's the only thing I can think of, as I think T-Mobile does some weird things with Band 12.

C636 I believe is the Chinese version of the mate 9 which does not have the correct us bands. There's no way to get those bands in your version. You'll have to purchase the us version. Flashing does not alter capability in terms of LTE capability.

No we were both on At&t. I know there's a difference between the two because even with fresh reboots there were certain areas in SoCal that her mate 9 would get solid LTE and mine would not lock on no matter what and I'd only get H+.
CptAwesomes explanation seems legit, I remember reading somewhere that one of the models had a different LTE band, I was thinking it was the US model but I guess it's the one I have which is one of the SE Asia models I believe. That's good news then since I already purchased a U.S. Model and will be selling this one shortly. Clears things up for my future flashing needs.

4G icon

Hello to everyone.
I got my S8 in germany. It isn't rooted and on stock rom. Basically I haven't touched the phone in that way.
My question is: is there a way to change the 4G to LTE? Im just annoyed by that icon.
Thanks for all answers.
Isn't it a Nougat thing?
I think it's how your carrier labels it. Mine says LTE

Is it possible to get access to Network roms like Three UK?

I'm after the Three UK firmware because I'm told by Three only their Oneplus 8 Pros have access to all bands on its network including the one that allows VOLTE

Mine does indeed allow volte but I don't think its alone there and it doesn't have all the other bands which 5G devices can utilise..
The firmware is just the EU one though mate

I've put the EU firmware on and no option for Volte so flashed it again to the UK firmware and still no Volte option so it must be something in the Three UK firmware that allows the band (800 MH)
On my old Oneplus 7 Pro the Volte icon shown all the time

There is no three specific firmware mate, it's just the EU firmware. Three phones are unlocked.
Wish there was something I could tell you but there's not..
There is no volte option on my phone either, not on 11 anyway. Was on 10.
The person you spoke to from three is blowing smoke up your bum.
If you know a way to test what bands are in use I'll be more than happy to test
Three are telling people this on the Oneplus forum, you said you've got no Volte feature but have it so do you see a Volte icon telling you its on?
I've tried a few Volte apps from the play store which confirm it isn't on mine, have you tried checking to see if you really have it

So if you turn off wifi then place a call you cant surf the net ? Does it drop to 3g ? I have the volte icon on my in2025 but the apps also show that it's off. Which is a lie / inaccurate.

Yes I'm able to surf whilst in a call on 4G/5G
I'm just testing using that app now.
App doesnt say it's active no.
This is the readout from
*#*#4636#*#*
Says volte is provisioned but greyed out. So I think it is on but unable to turn it off.
Like I said it was on and had a visual status bar icon but doesnt on 11
Slightly dubious app though is it functional on 11?

How about if you're just on 4G? Turn off 5G. When I'm on a call using 4G LTE and surf web it stays on LTE and doesn't drop.down to say 4G or in the uk it'll probably be 2G or 3G if I was originally on 4G.

Comical. Mines the other way around. Shows volte in status bar for both sims but that menu shows volte off. However disabling one sim then shows those options volte enabled via that menu posted. Rather confusing so to speak. However in practice volte is working.
Edit worked it out. For me, if I select voice call as "ask .." then those sliders in the 4636 menu are off.
