Hello, I have a SM-N9860 with TGY CSC. I was able to get carrier_policy files with QPST. Can anyone help me modify them so that 5G is enabled in any country that use N78 Band (in my case Switzerland). You'll find both files attached.
Or : if someone with a BRI SM-N9860 could share his Policyman folder that would be great.
Wow! Following this.
Is this the file that controls the ability to connect to 5G? No need for root?
That would be nice, following.

That's amazing man.
I was wondering why we couldn't get 5g and got it on one plus 8 pro
Well it looks like that file already has band 78 enabled for sa and nsa 5g. So there might be an imei restriction you are running into.

And in your opinion this imei restriction is added by Samsung or the carriers in each country? Or an agreement of between both?
Is it possible to ask a carrier to allow an imei to connect to their 5g network?

Carriers. They need to whitelist your imei for 5g roaming if you are roaming.

I will buy snapdragon version but I read here in several topics is that in exynos regions even in your own country with your carrier sim you still not connecting to 5g with snapdragon note 20..
You think that carriers only have whitelisted exynos imei for they 5g network?
Strange is that with one plus it connects.

No need for root. I was able to get all the files from a S20 Ultra Snapdragon BRI (which connects to 5G here in Switzerland) and I replaced those of my Note 20 Ultra with them. Unfortunately I didn't change anything... I keep searching but I'm afraid that only flashing CSC could solve the issue...

Why s20 connects , and note 20 not? Is Samsung really scamming even more the costumers? One Plus is snapdragon and connects so is not SoC problem for sure.
That can confirm it is a scam, from Samsung, carriers or both.

And presumably for 5G access if you are not roaming (i.e., if we import an international phone)? Samsung has an issue with servicing international phones (they won't), but the carriers shouldn't have any issue providing service - that right?

I'm starting to feel the same way, and I've used Samsung phones ever since the original Galaxy S - even returned an iPhone 4 at the time to switch. What irritates me is how they have started taking their customers for granted, even with their top-tier phones - downgrading the memory capacity, eliminating the headphones (and not even offering a complementary set here in Canada). Samsung originally appealed to me as the underdog against Apple, who would take risks and truly innovate to attract customers - that role now seems to belong to others. And quite frankly, from what I've seen of the OnePlus Pro 8, it wouldn't be much of a lowering of standards to switch...

This information is incorrect. Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra takes as good pictures if not better and so does Oppo Find X2 Pro. My only reason to go for Samsung is US bands and mmWave bands. If I was elsewhere like some places in Europe or India would have definitely gotten a Find X2 Pro. (Dont trust Xiaomi much with ads etc). Look at that beauty Find X2 Pro with Vegan Leather.

So did you just mean it is a hardware problem? Perhaps the iphones support TD themselves. But in my view, MSM8974 of Snapdragon Series should support all kinds of LTE as what they peacock before, I don't know whether there is someone really good on "unlocking" the ability of that.

I'm not saying that it's the hardware. But search the internet for something like iPhone with LTE is coming to HK or so. I think I read that it's depending on whether the carrier supports it and has the network available for it.
As you might know, the Mi 6 was announced today. The specs look great for the price (see http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/new-product/mobile-phone/xiaomi-mi6-news-release-date-price-features-specifications-3653263/) and I thought I finally found the phone I really wanted.
But then the old story hit me again. No support for LTE band 20. As I live in Germany this means no matter what provider I have, I will be affected with less LTE coverage.
So I created this thread to gather any news that involve the possibility and efforts of unlocking the LTE band 20 on the Mi 6.
I hope there are maybe similarities with the ongoing efforts of unlocking the bands of the Mi 5 (http://en.miui.com/thread-242834-1-1.html or here https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5/how-to/progress-trying-to-unlock-bands-t3337476).
When the Mi 6 is shipped, I hope this will get some attention and we may find a way to unlock it together. :fingers-crossed:
I have the Mi Note Pro and I never spotted anyone succeeding in unlocking band 20.
I live in France and band 20 is one of the 3 main bands but I never suffered any need for band 20. I even had a Sony Z5 premium which had all French bands and I had to switch to 3g because it wouldn't receive well when I am in bed.
Depending on your carrier if you have just another band and live in a city, not having band 20 is not a deal breaker in my humble opinion.
If you really need it I wouldn't wait for sure for a way to unlock band 20.
Mi6 can work with AT&T network?

Yes that is a valid point. As I live in Berlin I won't have any problems here. But since I travel around a lot for work countryside coverage would be a good benefit. But as you mentioned band 20 won't stop me from getting the Mi6.
This thread is just if anybody comes up with a good idea on how this could be done. Just as a 'bonus'.
The most active in unlocking lte bands are people in the OnePlus forum as far as I know.

Because it needs to do a lot, such as patents, internal structure, and so on.

It depends on power amplifier and rf modules. In some case it can be unlocked with software or hardware changing.
If somebody find which power amplifier and rf modul are used in mi6, let me known, i tell you if unlock possible.

You could say the same for Oneplus's global and China variant. They must have their reasons. I'm sure everyone, let alone, Xiaomi, know that they don't benefit for locking the bands. So, there's no point speculating on why and rather to just accept the obvious that it was not for the US market or any other country that It's not being sold officially.
As far as do you guys think it will have a decent rom and kernel development section? Because the only reason I would buy a international version is for the custom Tom and kernels and mods. Thanks In advance!!!

yes - there is already some development in the S10 threads for compatible mods for our phone ...as twrp is updated and installation simplified, there will be even more development.

I'm not really up on the specifics, but from what I understand the international version lacks some of the LTE bands used by some carriers in North America. Also, some carriers apparently disallow volte and wifi calling under certain circumstances for foreign esn's.
Worth exploring further if you're buying from overseas and those kinds of things matter to you.
Yes, it's worth it. Rooting makes the phone better. You get better audio with viper4android, custom roms and customization. You get more control of your $1k phone

This depends on your coverage. I did do a side by side test with a T-Mobile 6t, and my international S10. We were getting similar speeds side by side.
The fastest I've gotten is 110 Mbps. Which is similar to the LTE on my previous devices. Even with CA on a 6t, you get the same or similar speeds. The only difference right now for me, was my service on a call while driving. I had a little connectivity issue while on a call recently ( just breaking up here and there).
Also, it may depend on your CSC if you have Carrier Aggregation for certain bands enabled. My XSA does not.

If #benchmarklife is your thing, then each to their own, thats cool. I like to game and the Exynos game lag experience is real. Plus the Qualcomm 4G/wifi modems are the best in industry.
I also disagree on battery life, I've done a side by side comparisson with the Exynos and SD855 - using them the way I use a phone and my SOT was around 6hrs for the SD855 and under 5 for the Exynos. I would love to see your battery stats getting 8-9 hrs SOT, because, cough, it seems, cough, a little bull**** to be honest.. :laugh:
Here's a good comparison between the 2 handsets, I fail to see how the Exynos is better than the SD855 S10+. But thats ok. Im sure your own benchmarks show a different story :good:
https://www.anandtech.com/show/14072/the-samsung-galaxy-s10plus-review
For me, ultimately, the biggest issue with Exynos in Australia is that wait for carrier firmware releases.. And I'm glad I don't have that wait. The G9750 seems to be around 1.5 months ahead of the carrier releases here for the Exynos.
Ultimately the S10+ whether Exynos or SD855 is an awesome handset. Samsung did real good :good::good:

Hi I am interested in buying the Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g mainly because T-Mobile is going live with 5g where I live on Decemeber 6th 2019. But from what I know the this phone doesn't support the 5g bands for T-Mobile.
I heard that there is a way to unlock those bands on Qualcomm devices and this phone uses the Snapdragon SOC.
Can this be done?

So the bands for 5g that tmobile supports is not dependent on just the processor, its also dependent on what the manufacturer decides on. As with all phones, you need to see what is the most compatible cell phone provider for that phone. If the mi mix 3 does not support tmobile bands, there's no way to force it to.

Correct. I've had a discussion on a Mi Mix 3 5g thread where this guy says it's a update thing not a hardware thing. Which I feel he's clearly wrong. Cell bands have nothing to do with updates, it's a hardware thing.
Dear slimegpod,
The frequency is supported in hardware but we did trials and only the Vodafone and global rom version has the Vodafone de 5g Network activated.
So I am on eu rom and cannot use Vodafone de 5g only Telekom and I am planning to switch ROMs but waiting for a moment to unlock since I will lose all my data.

Carrier Support Not needed for mi mix 3 5g
Dear slimegood,
I called my carrier and the result was that they communicated the values to connect to the 5g network to Xiaomi and they need to add it to their firmware. The problem being that some variants of the firmware have not picked up the configuration options.

Any luck? The phone does not support 5G out of the box. According to manufacturers website, "5G function will be available via OTA update. Update times depend on your specific carrier and network."
Let us know if you find a way to do it without the OTA update.

There should be a option under network settings. I it seems the development for this device is crap though (as far as the updates are concerned). It sucks it's on MIUI v10 which I understand why but they still should've had this figured out before releasing it.
Thanks.
Well thanks for the feedback, if the firmware gets released somebody let me know. I really like the phone, but compatibility with USA 5g is really important to me.
i dont think it will ever get 5g support in the states - it uses a different 5g tech than what the us telecoms are proceeding with as far as i was told.
Stating that - i use it on t-mobile and i get great 4g in most places.
So is there a thread for this already? Anyone one else excited to see what 5g gonna be like?

I think this topic is a first. If my S10+ can handle 5G then I will be excited.

Yeah I'm super happy I'm in miami and damn near every where i travel is covered so truly happy about that. I'm guess well get a surprise update to active the 5g in our phones first?

I don't know if 5G is software or hardware related. If it's software yeah there will probably be some kind of update. If it's hardware then a new phone is required.

From what I was told is that the S10 is capable of 5G and has 5G capability but doesn't have the 5G modem in the phone itself so therefore we cannot get 5G unless we purchase the 5G model.

Modems used to be interchangeable and updateable back in the Galaxy S4 days. I guess that's changed with the newer phones.
Think about it. Why would S10 5G exist if the current models were 5G capable? And I don't mean what AT&T does in the US by replacing the 4G LTE icon with 5GE, I mean actual 5G
lol eh?
What's this?
Sorry, the S10/S10+ cannot and will not be 5G capable. It doesn't have the required hardware. Which is a 5G modem and associated components.
That's why there's an S10 5G: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s10-5g
I'm not sure where you read this, but it's very much false.

By the time 5G is available on a wide scale all premium devices will have 5G capability since realistically that's at least a year out. This is why I passed on the S10 5G model. There is no possibility a software update will enable a "5G Capable" S10 as it requires a modem. The S11 will have a Qualcomm 865 SoC (7nm) separate from it's modem which is fine however word has it Qualcomm's 875 Chipset (5nm) will have the modem integrated into the SoC.
