Activate network speed in statusbar by editing CSC - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hello, I'm interested in activating a network speed meter in the status bar of a official Pie ROM, using root.
I have tried adding this line, but it doesn't work.
Code:
<CscFeature_Setting_SupportRealTimeNetworkSpeed>TRUE</CscFeature_Setting_SupportRealTimeNetworkSpeed>
Thank you in advance!

Oh, it actually works. I didn't know that after editing the csc file, The option has to be enabled in Settings->Display->Status bar->Show network speed. Ha-ha.

How do you enable N9005 LTE option?

I've been using a n9005 bought unlocked in europe (Romainia) in Asia. I had my local service provide me with a new 4g sim. And they helped me connect to 4g using a 3rd party app from appstore to toggle 4g. (Viaero 4G Toggle)
Since the latest Samsung update i am unable to use the app -- and have no way to toggle the same. How can i enable 4g? shall i flash a different region rom? Of shall i change CSC? (tried once it never worked!) I am on XXUMDJ7.
If i should try a different rom or CSC which one?
Any help is appreciated (googled but couldn't find much useful.)
Not clear what you are reporting/asking.
It seems that you did have an N9005 (region-locked for EU but not carrier-locked) and you were using it somewhere in Asia (where?) with a local SIM that was working. Now you had the MJ7 update and the local SIM is no longer working - at all or just the LTE part? Do you still have the original SIM that you first used when you started your N9005 (or any SIM from EU)? Does that one work? (but be careful with mobile data since roaming costs on that can be ugly).
I also assume you are not rooted and never had RegionLockAway.
Just the LTE part. It was never on tbe connection options menu. I used d toggle app to enable it. New updates killed the app .
I dont mind rooting. Dont care abt d warrenty. No. Never needed unlock away..

What do you have listed under Acess Point Names (APNs)? (you might need to manually add a custom entry there, you don't need root for that on unlocked phones but you need a lot of settings from your local carrier).
Also around the same menu there is a setting where you can select LTE(4G)/WCDMA(3G)/GSM(2G) modes (4G can be kind of a battery killer, with 3G sometimes close second battery killer).
I don't have that option on settings. The app i used was a work arround.
I'm wondering which rom / csc will enable it?

Hi, I feel your pain and know exactly what you are talking about.
Samsung have a special file where they define which carrier codes are allowed to have LTE.
You need root and you have to add your carrier to the following file "lteon_netlist.xml" that is located in /system/csc/common/etc.
Study that file, make a backup and add your carrier there, reboot and the LTE option will show together with 2G and 3G
Enjoy!

Thank you. You are a genius! I had to do a CSC change to make that show up after changing the file. (It didn't get picked up on reboot.)
Before your reply, I'd looked over the CSC folder through XMLs -- but focused on the individual CSCs! wasted a good few hours digging up online and playing with Odin too.
Thanks again -- I am sure many will have this issue when they travel. Or, like me they would want to pick a European phone coz Samsung in some Asian markets don't offer LTE models (even though in Colombo and in this country, there is LTE all major urban/suburban areas!)
If someone else is looking this is what they need to modify. (on lteon_netlist.xml"located in /system/csc/common/etc)... create a new entry/ies - you need to put your network numeric code -- which an online search will get you, and the name and the country. like what i did, below!
<whiteLists numeric="41301" ltestate="PS/CSFB" operator="Mobitel" country="Sri Lanka" defaultMode="GWL"/>
<whiteLists numeric="41302" ltestate="PS/CSFB" operator="DIALOG" country="Sri Lanka" defaultMode="GWL"/>
And i can't believe that samsung cant just add all LTE enabled networks by default. They make top of the class HW, but the decision making is abysmal! Can't wait to get my hands on Cyanogen!

How did you do a CSC change? I have similar issues(bought HK 9005 and using in new zealand) and changing the common/etc/lte_netlist.xml does not work for me. I even tried to flash a local CSC which made the phone look like a branded phone but still no lte option by default.
My alternative solution is to modify the /data/propert/persist.radio.lteon file after rooting.
i did this but it not working my phone also i dont know why my phone is note 3 sm-n9005 can u explain to me how to do it

It didn't work for me either, until i changed the CSC code for the phone -- apply any available - I am on BTU. The settings get applied once you do that only. Try CSC changer app by Manniakk from google play!
Of course that resets your phone -- so you might wanna back up your data!
Have you tried dialing *#2263#?
If yours is sm-n9005, you should be able to choose lte/wcdma/gsm band manually.

hi dude
can i get the locating in system file. and the codes

Same Issue with LTE in Colombo
Without altering the CSC and rooting is there a way to enable LTE by flashing a supporting ROM from a supporting region.
Mine was purchased in Malaysia (n9005) and already tried BTU but nothing.
AP is changed to N9005XXUDMK2
CP is the same which is N9005XXUDMJ7
CSC is changed to N9005OXADMK2
When i go to Settings - About Phone
Baseband is still N9005XXUDMJ7 and not changed.
Have i done anything wrong here. And the weird issue is i have nothing, Not even the standard 3G or HSPA+ service. NO DATA at all.
Please guys need help as im a noob
Hi. im using a N9005 with HK TGY firmware and couldnt get the LTE option available. Anyone know how to activate the Service Mode menu via the dialer app? i tried *#2263# and it didnt work.

By modifying the "\system\csc\common\system\etc\lteon_netlist.xml" file, you should also modify the file "\system\csc\BTU\system\csc\contents.db" to reflect the change of the size of the the file lteon_netlist.xml.
To do that, open contents.db file by using Hex Editor, search for "lteon_netlist.xml", you will see this string will follow by 2 bytes, e.g 34 85. This is the size of the file lteon_netlist.xml (in HexaDecimal. In Decimal it will be 13,445). Now see what is the size of your new lteon_netlist.xml file, convert it to HexaDecimal, and then put it in the place right after "lteon_netlist.xml" string.
For example, if your new lteon_netlist.xml file has a new size 14,525 (in bytes). This value will be 38 BD in HexaDecimal. Then put this value in the contents.db file, right after "lteon_netlist.xml" string.
Sorry for my poor english
Ok now I know you can edit the LTE file but this doesn't resolve the basebands the N9005 reads right?

How did you find network numeric code ?

[Q] EE Wifi Calling on S5 without EE Firmware

I have a non-EE S5 and have been trying to find out how to enable Wifi Calling. On this tread it describes editing system/csc/others.xml and adding
Code:
<CscFeature_Setting_SupportWifiCall>TRUE</CscFeature_Setting_SupportWifiCall>
I have found people reporting this works. So, I'm assuming the same process will work on the S5, but I don't want to root, so I was thinking of using an updater-script to replace the others.xml file with one that contains the new line.
Does anyone know if this will trip the Knox flag - which is the reason I don't want to root!
What do people think about this working?
If I get a definite answer about Knox, I will give it a go and post my experiences/details, along with full instructions/files if it works!
Thanks
I edited my others.xml file but no change.
I think it has also to do with the installed csc, maybe. Also there has to be some communication integrity with the operator in this feature, this could be probably why the operator given locked phone works. Phone should know where & to whom it should remain connected while on wifi only.
Samsung Galaxy S5 DUOS LTE (SM-G900FD).
ROM: G900FDU1BOC1, Android 5.0.
Tried it on my Galaxy Note 4 and I can't see the option anywhere so not working for me
Same problem
I have 900F BOC7 BTU stock firmware (as its the only one i could flash after a hidden.img.ext4 fail issue) and i'm also looking to get firmware that enables wifi calling. I tried calling EE customer services to see if i could blag an update but if you havent bought your phone from them you're screwed. However, they did enable the wifi calling option from their screen so you do need to call them to do this from their end.
Anyone know how to add the wifi calling option ?
Thanks.

LTE/WCDMA only option?

Hi all,
I recently upgraded from an S5 to an S7 edge.
Because of the way 3 manages it's network in Ireland the phone is constantly changing to GSM coverage (2G) and takes ever to switch back to 4G or WCDMA (3G) even when there's coverage.
On the S5 I had the option in device info to select LTE/WCDMA only which ensured that the phone stayed on 3G or 4G at all times, however I don't see that option on the S7 (see below).
Is this a firmware setting that can be changed?
Do any of the custom ROMs support this setting?
Any help appreciated...
Is there a file I can edit to add this option?
Anyone, anyone, Bueller?
Can any devs explain where these options come from, are they firmware settings or are these options carrier dependent, surely someone must know where these options come from?
Do you have options under settings>mobile networks>network mode?

These are the options I have under network mode and also in device settings (no option for 3G/4G only):
It appears that your carrier disabled the feature. You could try flashing a custom rom or a different csc.

Yeah it appears so. I've flashed nearly all the custom ROMs and the options are always the same. I also flashed 3 different CSC to no avail.
Not sure where to go from here. I wonder if I edited the build.prop file would it add this option?
didn't you find a solution yet? I've just tried the 4G Switch app from the play store to find out this combination is missing and developer email address is invalid... Is there an HW limitation?
I'm using the Helios Rom now and the option is there for lte/wcdma only. Happy days.

How to enabled VoLTE

Hello,
I've a G935F and my network operator have the VoLTE (Proximus in belgium). The problem is I have the LUX firmware and not the PRO.
When I download the correct firmware, I never got the PRO firmware but the German because, it's a multi-CSC firmware…
I don't want root my phone. Is not possible to force the PRO csc ? Rebuilding the firmware and force the PRO csc has master for example ?
LUX and PRO has the only firmware working for network share and I don't want to rooting my phone and lost many features…
Thanks for help

I had the same problem.
Jack, i can give you a code so that you can choose PRO but it will wipe your phone so you will have to back up everything.. I got the code from somebody from Proximus.. if you want it, PM me
But make sure you have the multi csc installed..

Thanks but it's working for me. Want to change to PRO from VD2 and it's not working; no pop-up, no menu, nothing…*
Never tried by myself but out of the codes available that seems to be the most promising one (*#272*IMEI#, *#272*TIME# are others).
Which Android version are you on? I also heard it works under MM but not N.

Trying with Nougat…*Never testing on MM
Any update on this? Mine is LUX CSC as well, would like to change it one where I can use VoLTE. Just switched to proximus.
A little bit too late, just had mine activated with LUX CSC. No need to change CSC, just give them a call to make sure they activate VOLTE on your SIM.
This was on NOTE 8, with OREO.

Video Calling/ ViLTE Options Unavailable?

Hi all
Current setup: S7 Edge G935F, CSC: TEL, provider: Telstra , ROM: Superman 2.7 .
Problem: There is no option to video call when I try to call. I also cannot find any options in settings or the phone app to change this.
ROM developer says that it is a CSC issue. I've tried XSA CSC with no luck. The others.xml file in the TEL CSC seems to be enabling video calling but it is still not available.
e.g.
<CscFeature_IMS_EnableLTEVideoCall>TRUE</CscFeature_IMS_EnableLTEVideoCall>
<CscFeature_VoiceCall_ConfigViLTESettingMenu>TELViLTE</CscFeature_VoiceCall_ConfigViLTESettingMenu>
Any lines I could add or change? Any other ideas? Would like to keep VOLTE and VoWiFi.
Thanks for your help in advance
Just to let any future readers know that I did end up getting video calling to work on my S7 Edge running superman ROM 2.7 . The TEL (Australia, Telstra) CSC in the 2.5.0 selection by tkkg1994 ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/development/utility-flashable-csc-selection-30-t3392957 ) enabled it for me. Keep in mind that my provider is Telstra in Australia and that is why it works for me. Both the provider and the CSC must support video calling in order for this to work. I did not end up working out what line to change but there is a line in the customer.xml file in the csc folder that looks like it enables video calling => just ctrl+F and search for "video" in that file and you should find it.
TLDR: This is indeed a CSC issue and both the telecommunications provider and the CSC must support video calling (and probably match) in order for this to work. I worked this out by flashing a more up to date CSC from my provider.
