Hi Everyone,
At home, we get two RN7 global.
My wife get official global MIUI 11 latest.
Mine is with LineageOS 16 unofficial from June 19.
Both have the same french prodiver.
We live near the boarder (not good side of the provider) , but no matters, in Europe there is facilities with Roaming.
At home, both telephones near. My wife can find our operator, and on MIUI she can choose the bands (operator 3G, 4G, 2G etc) and stay connected on it (with weak signals but it works).
On LineageOS, it only detects the operator name. and when I connect on it, switch automatically to the abroad operator... can not force manually.
What should I do on my phone ?
Change roms? which one let me choose network bands?
Update firmwares?
I use a great ignored app "Phono"
From this site : phonoins.blogspot.com
It allows to get the logo of the provider in the status bar and identify easily if on roaming or not (instead of the really small R logo on the network zone).
Works on my roms, but not on official MIUI
Someone knows a good app like this ?
Thanks for your precious help.
Regards,
Jc.

I upgraded to PixelExperience Latest.
I add some little troubles because my /data was encrypted (stuck on G logo at first boot). So need to erase /data partition.
With PixelExperience the "manual mode" is available and my phone doesn't switch randomly to another provider.
So my old rom LineageOS 16 is bugged and does not allow "manual mode" for cellular/network mode.
I will replace PixelExperience with something else. First feeling, I dislike it.
I found something called Network Info Lite that suits me partially... but still no logo in status bar. Will retry Phono with my new custom rom.

I'm new to flashing custom roms and what not. I used odin and flashed everything to the point, csc, modem,pda,pit the rom works awesome but i cannot for the life of me connect to the internet. the 3g icon or h icon wont' show up. in the status it says my network type is gprs and i'm roaming and my mobile network state is disconnected.
I'm with fido, the phone is unlocked i have never had trouble with data or anything until i flashed to a custom rom.
Anyone have the same problem or suggest how to fix?
Data Conn. Issue
Hey mate,
Have you gone into 'Settings', 'Wireless and Networks', 'Mobile Networks' and then 'APN settings' and entered your appropriate settings?
That should fix it if you define the correct access point.
Alex
hey man, yeah i did all that stuff, went in there, found my carrier, put in all the apn settings i can find and still nothing. when i put data roaming on then i get data and the edge icon comes up.
Hey dude,
That sounds strange, flashing custom (or even release) roms is never a guarantee especially with weaknesses in the way that ODIN communicates with your phone, What I would do is Re-Flash your stock rom through ODIN then use the "quick" install method from Darkyy.
I am running 5.6 like you, and I had issues doing it through odin (I kept getting random FC's), additionally, the rom; if installed from CWM will keep your apns and apps e.t.c. along with many settings and configs from the base rom you're using before the flash.
That is the best advice I can give you.
Alex
My config is a follows:
I9000 International
16gb SDHC
500HZ Hardcore Kernel
Darkyy 5.6
Whats the process for reverting back to stock 2.1 eclair rom?
Did you keep a record of your firmware version before reflashing?
If not, you may have to ask someone on here what your base firmware was.
Are you familiar with using ODIN? (The software used for reflashing)
Alex
I am having same issue to...I used 5.4 from Darky and it works well...same with DocRom 4.0 works and the next 5.1/6.0 don't work.
Both Darkys and DocRom are based some JPX....which seem to be root cause..
I've have the same problem. Tried eveything but still didn't work. So went to Samsung Service Centre to have my SGS firmware refresh. I notice after the refreshed same issue of data com missing. Told them and they when into the SGS to select the telco operator setting selection. Now data com. working well. Anyone know the SGS handset setting code? I want to reload to Darky's v5.6 again.
hi folks
i have the same problem... my provider is a virtual provider in the network of our biggest provider here in austria. i was using doc's rom based on xwjpa firmeware and everything worked fine without enabled roaming options.
since doc's rom is based on the newer releases (xxjpx, xxjpy) i' only able to use data connection if i turn on roaming. it also shows me that i'm in a roaming network. i guess the cause are the xx firmwares. xw and xx are european firmwares but i do not know the differences between them. maybe someone has more information about the differences? currently i'm using xwjpa firmware because i don't want to use my phone with enabled roaming options.
hey um i'm having the same problem and thought replying here would be better than starting a new thread.
well i installed the rom without having any idea of what i was doing *stupid idea* so i didn't take note of my original firmware.
i didn't use odin to install the rom just clockwork recovery and the rom and everything installed fine except my data network. i can get signal, call, receive the only problem is i get no data transfer. any help much appreciated. if anything can someone help me step by step to reboot my phone to original?
just for future travellers
Sadly this isn't my own gem, but yeah. hold the power button down, wait for the shutdown menu, above the airplane mode there is a data network button, and it'll most likely say "de-activated" if nothing else has worked. Its ok to feel like a chump, I did after rehashing the hell out of this phone for a few days ( the wifes phone, my phone does exactly what its told. )
Anyway, yeah, this will probably be the reason for the lack of the icon "G", "3G" or "H" where it should be.

I have several issues with my US996 on Verizon, running LineageOS 14.1. (I'm not asking in the LOS threads because I figure more people here know the details of this device)
The main problem is I can't get SMS to work unless I set the preferred network type to CDMA or CDMA/EVDO only. I have been using the "VZWINTERNET" APN.
Any time I set an option that includes LTE (including the "Global" setting), SMS/MMS stops working.
Also, the signal indicator works strangely, oftentimes when I have strong signal the signal indicator shows 0 bars.
Lastly, many of the fields in Settings/phone info/SIM Status are blank, eg phone number, signal strength and service state. (Perhaps this is a CDMA/Verizon idiosyncracy since the SIM is not the primary auth to the legacy CDMA network?)
Do I need to flash the VS995 radio to this device to address these things? Is that even feasible? What about what Verizon calls "Advanced Calling" options? Ideally I would love to have VoLTE and WiFi calling as well.
Thanks.

If youre device is abr0 you can use the patched dll version of lg up. https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4233875&d=1502007613 to flash vs955 firmware. I have found that the this version VS9951BA01 is the one has fastboot mode and can get to recovery if you want to use dirty santa on it. or if you get to the you have 9 attempts of 10 to enter the passcode. you will then need to factor reset to get the data formated. But this link has the full instructions. https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/guide-patch-lgup-to-unlock-features-t3652222

Thanks for that tip, I will read up on it a bit later.
The main reason I got a US996 rather than a VS995 is the lack of an officially unlockable bootloader on the VZW variant and having to use an exploit to unlock/root it which only works on old firmware leading me into a potential trap if the device ends up in a state I can't either unlock/root or return to stock from.
I already unlocked the US996 bootloader - will that get reset if I flash a stock kdz onto it?
I tried using LGup shortly after I got the phone but I was having problems getting it to work on my Win7 workstation, perhaps I had the wrong version..
Hi guys!
I'm from Venezuela, I recently acquired a Nexus 6p (h1511), so yes, I'm a noob. When the cell phone arrived in Venezuela, I connected it to the Wi-Fi network without placing a SIM card, and there was an update notification, I executed it, anyway it already came with Oreo 8.1, the update was December, the one that had It was November. After updating the SIM of the operator Movistar, recognizes it since it says "Without service - Movistar", when trying to call it shows the error "Mobile network not available", when trying to do a network search, it gives error, sometimes to one side of the signal bar, appears an R (Roaming I guess) ... I've been doing a lot of research, believe me I would not be creating this post if I was not so desperate, I have many doubts
I took it to a technician, he looked at it and said it was CDMA that there was nothing to do, he wanted to sell me a GSM motherboard, I told him I would think about it, it was strange for me to be just CDMA, I investigate more and I realize that it's dual, and it changes from MEID to IMEI when I put the SIM card ... I did a factory reset and it did not work. I used the options in *#*#4636#*#* the default is LTE/CDMA/UMTS Auto (PRL) ... I tried to put GSM Only or Auto or any option that included GSM. Without apparent results, I think that it did not even change the default option, the radio bands are few, all from the USA (logical being the USA version of the cell phone) ...
Investigating further, I understood that the problem persists in Android Oreo ... Under the official firmware of Google 7.1.2, I follow the steps, I do the unlocking bootloader, flash vendor / radio, flashing system, in the end there is an error , something about user, I really do not remember, something like that could not erase the user partition or had no permissions ... The issue is that I turn on the cell phone, start to do an erasure, then start asking for google account, etc. ... I configure it, but I see everything the same, I enter the configuration and details of the team, it keeps dialing android 8.1.0, but I see that the base band has changed, some apps have changed, like the application of calls ...
Does anyone know what happened? (And no, the SIM problem was not fixed) :crying:
I want to install this ROM
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/development/rom-chroma-11-08-2015-lockscreen-navbar-t3244444
According to many sites and here in XDA comment that it solves the problem, but this is 6.0.1 ... It means that I must flash 6.0 stock? To install the custom? Or can I install on 8.1?
Any other more updated custom rom that solves this problem?
Thank you! :fingers-crossed:
Hello people, got a nasty situation that I'm trying to fix on a custom rom based on LOS (crDroid to be more exact) and that's the Volte enable.
Running stock OOS 9.0.17 managed to do it using this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7-pro/help/force-enable-volte-vowifi-t3934227 but since the OP logkit doesn't work on custom ROMs can't access *#*#800#*#*/*#*#801#*#* service menus I can't really use that anymore. Using that guide I managed to activate Volte by activating modem connection with Vodafone India settings. On Rom I'm using now, the only menu I can access is *#*#4636#*#* that shows me the connection type is active at the time, but no working Volte. When I use my 1st sim to make a call, connection switches to H or H+.
Another thing is that on INFO menu the connection type shows after reboot like in screenshot attached even if I have my volte switched on.
Also from that guide I've linked, I can't find that VoEnabler magisk moduke, so I've added the lines manually to build.prop (lines found on GitHub module page)...
Anyone knows a work around for it? Or a way to switch the LTE band to the one Vodafone India use to match the band Orange Romania uses for Volte?
I installed the latest lineageOS 19 version, rooted my phone then ran into this problem where the phone says i have service, but when i place a call it wont fully make the call. Then my mobile data will X out and i get pop up error saying mobile service is unavailable. I then tried lineageOS 18.1 and arrowOS and same problem persists.
formating between installs obviously.
I have looked at every option on this phone and tried combinations and everything in the network/system/ everything and still not working.
The process was actually very simple since i have some programming experience. Other sources mention possible baseband issues? On the fastboot screen it shows a baseband version. all the information there appears normal. I only flashed the boot image one time to root and didn't mess with any other manual flashing processes. Just used twrp. I didn't quite understand twrp at first and therefore didn't get a backup using it... iused adb to make a backup which apparently didn't work so Im lost and hope someone could help me out here. please and thank you!
If i may add I can use mobile data just fine, i can browse the internet and such (with wifi off and data on only) so i really dont understand. Is this a normal issue to have when using custom roms? did I trip some security that blocked me now? any input???
I wonder, though, this moto g7 is an A/B partition thing. so if i understand correctly, flashing twrp would not work and thus why i did not do that. it makes sense. But should i try flashing it, booting into it then installing lineage? even if i did i feel like that would give me same issue considering the method i followed got me into lineageos, plus root checker said i was rooted.
What I can tell you is what I had to do in order to get LTE (voice calls) running on my G7 - I was forced to switch over to LTE because AT&T turned off 3G here in the US and 4G without LTE is not good enough for voice calls:
Get the latest stock firmware and install it using e.g. Lenovo's "Rescue And Smart Assistant". That will get Motorola's Android 10 on the phone.
After installation, go through setup and actually make a call (calling your mailbox is fine). Then check your ims status (*#*#4636#*#*, goto phone info, pull ims status) to see that ims is actually working.
Shutdown the phone and start installing LOS (use the partition copy script too to make sure that the partitions not touched by LOS installation are updated "on the other flash bank").
Go through LOS setup, select a valid APN for your setup, set "LTE only" or "LTE / WCDMA" for the network and make a call. You should be good to go.
Again this is what I had to do to get LTE working with AT&T USA. YMMW.

I know this is way late, and you probably already figured it out. I didn't share the no text problem. The Problem isn't just the "LTE" setting itself. There is one more option(some Roms show it, some don't) I believe its in the phone app settings? VOLTE must be checked. I have noticed Some Roms do have this option and some don't. when volte is checked, it'll keep your data/internet on during a call, some Roms that option won't show up or isn't available. I haven't used G7 in a while, but I do remember the problem and how to fix (on my phone anyway).
