How to enable 4g network band - OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys, I purchased my OP2 in USA. Right now I'm in India and I observed this phone is not supporting 4G network since it is North America based phone and it is configured that way. So guys, please tell me is it possible to enable BAND 20 (I believe it is the BAND for Airtel 4G network) via custom ROM or any other method? I'm using Rooted Stock OS.

[Q] Force Nexus 4 onto a specific frequency for testing?

Hello, I am currently living in Toronto and would like to test the network coverage for WCDMA 850MHz only, because the phone I'm buying only supports WCDMA 850/2100 (my carrier uses 850/1900).
I tried using *#*#4636#*#* but this only gives me the option to switch between Japanese, USA and cellular bands and does not allow me to distinguish between individual bands.
I've tried googling this and no help has come up yet.
I'm currently on Purity 4.4.4 and Hell's Core.
I have the same issue. Traveling in India, and my US-bought Nexus 4 seems stuck on US frequencies. My coverage and signal strength are terrible and the phone can't hold a connection. I want to switch it to Indian frequencies.
I tried using an app called Radio Switcher which is just a friendlier way of accessing the hidden menu. However, under Select Radio Band, it only shows USA and Japanese bands, not Euro or Asia.

[Q] Airtel India - 4G/LTE - 2300mhz

Hi - I have LS980 on cm12 rom. I have subscribed to Airtel 4G connection however I was informed that LS980 does not support 2300mhz and hence 4G is not possible unless the Airtel also starts providing 4G connection on 1800mhz.
Would someone be able to guide/help me in letting me know if it's something can be done so my phone thinks I have 2300mhz, similarly like "QUALCOMM NV CALCULATOR".
Please let me know if this is possible to have 4G/LTE from Airtel in India on LS980?
airtel 4g
I think the only model that supports 4g lte in india is d802t. Airtel provides at 2300mhz only...

Meizu MX5 no 4G network capabilities

Hello,
I have been using my Meizu MX5 for about two months now without the 4G network working. I have recently updated to the latest firmware and I am currently running Flyme OS 4.5.2.7A and that has not solved any issues either.
I have checked that the phone settings are configured properly.
Network Mode is set to "4G First".
The phone is pending between, H-, H and H+ connection (3G I believe?)
I have checked with my provider and these are the following frequencies which should be providing 4G in my country (Sweden) for the provider:
800Mhz, 900MHz, 1800MHz, 2600MHz
Other providers have the same frequencies as well.
I have also gotten two new SIM-Cards during this period of time without it solving any issues. I have tried the SIM cards in some other phones and they get 4G connection without any issues.
I have been in contact with Meizu customer support in China and after some random troubleshooting of factory resetting and reinstalling the same firmware on the phone without solving anything.
They have also provided me information regarding the different bands/frequencies which the phone operates on:
GSM/GPRS/EDGE (900/1800/1900MHz)
WCDMA/HSPA+: Band 1/2/8 (900/2100MHz)
FDD LTE: Band 1/3 (1800/2100MHz)
TD-SCDMA: Band 34/39 (no freqency specified)
TD-LTE: Band 38/39/40/41 (no frequency specified)
I am not 100% sure on how this works but according to the information I am given, the phone and my provider share at least one frequency for the 4G network and therefore I do not understand why it is not working.
I am sure that it is software related and thus I won't send my phone back to China (4-8 weeks delivery time and all expenses has to be paid by me) for them to troubleshoot.
Anyone here who has knowledge which could give me an answer?
Kind regards,
Martin
Hi mate.
I had this problem but upgraded to new firmware late last night and it came on. Thankfully!
Give it a try
Hi,
I have checked the upgrade app on the phone and it says I have the latest firmware.
Which firmware version are you running?
Kind regards,
Martin
Maybe it is an APN related problem. Look if you have the same data as in the other phones that 4G works

Hi iicc,
Thank you for the reply.
I have checked the APN settings about four-five times and I can't find any inconsistencies. I have even crosschecked it with a support technician from my provider.
The only things I can think of is either my anntenna being gimped, that the firmware is not properly developed or that somehow there's trash in my system and that my phone maybe needs a complete wipe and reinstallation.
After the upgrade to firmware 4.5.2.7A the phone does not even hint on trying to connect to 4G. Pre-upgrade it atleast connected to 4G for about 5 seconds and then went down to 3G.
Kind regards,
Martin

Let me try to come up with something that might be your problem. If you are using 3 as your mobile provider then they use FDD-LTE band 7 & 20 none of which are supported by the MX5 and 3 are also using TDD-LTE band 38 which is supported by the MX5, but might not be available in your area.
If you are on Net4Mobility then they use FDD-LTE 3,7,8 & 20 of which only 3 is supported, so it could that in your area there is no coverage with band 3.
If you are on Telia, the story is pretty much the same as Net4Mobility as they use FDD-LTE 3,7 & 20.
In order to get more from your phone. You can open up google and search for 'meizifan eu' and go to the website. They have a pretty good description of how you install the international version of FlyMe on your MX5, the international version is called 4.5.2.7i. I believe it activates some other FDD-LTE and TDD-LTE bands.
1800Mhz band is a short range, higher bandwidth frequency which usually is less common and given that it has a short range it most likely isn't available in your area.

Thank you for the reply nasty_suicide!
I am using Comviq Tele2 as provider, which should use the Telia net.
This is what I believe as well, but I really thought there was no way to flash the international version onto the phone and was about to abandon ship by buying a new phone yet again.
I will try to install the International version as soon as I have time to follow through the steps. I have found the guide on Meizufans.
Once I have installed the international version I'll let everyone know the outcome.
Kind regards,
Martin
Hi Hawdes,
I've exactly the same problem as you do, please post back once you instal I version. I was planning to do so but since I already have everything installed I didn't want to go through trouble for nothing.
What were the results of this? Is it true that firmware can affect the signal received?
upgraded to the latest firmware yet?

Frequency bands question

Hi.
I want to buy an LG V20 h910 Unlocked, but I need Band 3 & 7 for my home network and possibly (when roaming on holiday) Band 20.
Various websites list at least Band 3 & 7 as being supported.
However, on the LG USA website, it says:
"LTE Bands 2/4/5/12/29/30, Roaming 1/3/7/20, and CA"
Will it work on my network, given that I will be using Band 3/7 in my home network, not just when roaming?
Thanks in advance
