Would seem strange that the 820 modem would be locking out band 20, I'm sure it's in there somewhere.

I donnot know，
maybe it is only Chinese version mi5，
you know ，there is no band 20 in china,
so xiaomi blocked it
china frequency bands:
FDD 1（2100M）、3（1800M）、5&26 （850M）、8（900M）、28 （700M）
TDD 38、39、40、41
I hope there will be a way to unlock /(add) band 20.

Did some testing with band 8 which is the only 4g band in this area on a particular operator and it didnt work, used both 2061719111903 and 2061584892127 but no 4g signal (works on another phone) so its wierd that you got band 5 working

Hi everyone. I have only 3G on my RN3 MTK. Rom is MIUI 8 Global 6.7.21 Beta. I tried to set it on LTE only from the hidden settings, but there is no signal. Anyone know a solution? Thanks
Depends on your carrier and which Band you are trying to connect to
My carrier is Vodafone DE. But I dunno which band I am triyng to connect. How can I check that?

Vodafone Germany uses bands 3, 7 and are adding band 20. If you're in a band 20 area you're out of luck as only the Taiwan Special Edition SD650 version has it.

Then you're either on Band 4 or have a Taiwan Special Edition that has both. But you definitely have the SD version and not the MTK he's referring to. If I'm wrong please post a screenshot of your "About phone" because that would be fantastic news.
Does anyone know how to add or enable FDD-LTE band 4 (1700MHz). I already tried with MTK Engineer app but this and other bands are disabled and cannot be activated.

I second your motion, but AWS will be hard to unlock, as the US version of the phone supporting AWS is not shipping yet. Maybe when is out you could crossflash the phone to get support, or mod the modem ROM/baseband or something, but before that I don't think is possible.
Yes. I guess so. When is the shipment of the US version expected to start?

It's impossible to flash new frequency ranges on any modem. Frequencies are purely Hardware based. The p9000 does not support USA LTE frequencies. (1700/2100 band 4). Although the website says the B version (US version) has been "coming soon" for months now.

I have searched on the internet that Redmi Note 4 hardware supports LTE Band 4 and Band 7, but the MIUI 8 itself locks those two bands.
I am located in North America that only those two LTE bands supported. Is there a way to open those two bands ?
at the moment, my phone can only use 3G.
thanks
Do you mean this?
I see band 7 but not band 4.
I had a look in here before too see if any bands were not enabled but there is only the one (AWS 1700)

Yes so band 4 it seems is not enabled by default.
It looks like anything in the table that is greyed out cannot be enabled so I am assuming that it's hardware dependant.
The only band that isn't greyed out & that can be enabled is as I noted before (AWS-1700)

Another question, Fido (the carrier here) supports Band 7 , but my phone cannot get the LTE mode, only 3G max . Do I have to enable band 7 manually ?

My provider uses Band 7, no problems connecting to 4G for me.

I see there are more UMTS bands available than what are enabled.
It's not a possibility to enable LTE Band 20 (800MHz), is it?
Recently ordered one and expected I'd have to live with Band 1 (2100MHz) and Band 3 (1800MHz) here in Norway
If Band 20 is available but just secretly disabled, that'd be very nice.
Checked in the engineer mode. The following bands are enabled by default :
FDD-LTE：Band 1 / 3 / 5 / 7 / 8
TDD-LTE：Band 38 / 39 / 40 / 41
I just enable the AWS 1700 ans Press set, but when I reboot the phone, it goes back to disable ?
Since Redmi Note 4X and Redmi Note SD have the same hardware, can the LTE bands unlocked in Note 4X be unlocked in Note 4 SD as well. Or is it possible to unlock the bands by the process in the Oneplus and Sony sections for Quallcomm devices?
Can you unlock band 2, 12 and/or 17 on global version of the the Redmi Note 4? (the one with band 4 and 20)
My Note 4 SD625 can't enter that engineering mode. But my LTE works fine here in Malaysia. But it's not that fast compared to my LG G4. Is Redmi N4 supports an LTE-A network? I've seen the SD625 specification and it supports advanced LTE, but my N4 aren't fast enough for only 2mb/s over my G4's 5mb/s on actual download speed.

Any break throughs on lte band unlocking? I edited my line 6828. I power off the phone. Power back on and check signal guru. Guru shows same lte bands at before editing line NV 6828. Is there another NV line for lte? Please assist as I saw no change in enabled bands when editing that line.
When I wiped data for signal guru it showed the bands I unlocked. No extra bands have worked on the 4x for me tho.
I opened the NON-HOLS modem bin and was digging around in the code. I was unsuccessful at putting the code from a global MI note 2 modem onto mido. Someone also modified their boot.img and was able to tell the phones which bands to use. I was unsuccessful on both endeavor

It does not have band 66 or 71. T-Mobile also hasn't widely rolled out these bands either. In my area I only have access to band 4 and 12. I am waiting to see when I get my phone if it supports wi-fi calling or VoLTE.
LYA-L09: Single Sim UK Variant
4G LTE TDD: B34 / B38 / B39 / B40
4G LTE FDD: B1 / B2 / B3 / B4 / B5 / B6 / B7 / B8 / B9 / B12 / B17 / B18 / B19 / B20 / B26 / B28 / B32
3G WCDMA: B1 / B2 / B4 / B5 / B6 (Japan) / B8 / B19 (Japan);
3G TD-SCDMA: B34 / B39
2G GSM: B2 / B3 / B5 / B8 (850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 MHz)
WiFi calling is a must have for me. Cell coverage is spotty at work and non existent at home. WiFi calling has solved this for the most part. The mate 20 pro looks so appealing, but I'd hate to find out I couldn't make a phone call.

I believe the phone has an option to turn it on. But I think TMobile is unique in allowing wifi calling, so not sure if it'll work. I "think" I saw it on an EMUI 9 feature walkthrough.

Huawei Canada is now listing a model LYA-L0C which does have band 66, but not 71. Not sure when they are shipping.
I have the Asian version (sold for Hong Kong, Australia and Philippines) of the Huawei Mate 10. Use it on Tmobile in US. I could never get wifi calling or VOIP to work although Tmobile supports this. Maybe an edit to build.prop could fix this but I decided not to root phone. Interesting to see if same for Mate 20 pro.
https://consumer.huawei.com/ca/phones/mate20-pro/specs/
The Canada Mate 20 pro will have Band 66 in it
( Model LYA-L0C:
FDD LTE: B1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 12 / 17 / 18 / 19 / 20 / 26 / 28 / 66

Hi Nicely!
I assume by now you've received your Mate 20 Pro for use on T-Mobile's network as it's been 2 1/2 weeks since your last post in here. I too have T-Mobile.
Just got the OnePlus 6T after seeing how great that phone is, though the camera isn't as good as Huawei's, even with the modded GCam options out there.
So I'm DYING to know lol......................were you able to successfully enable or activate VoLTE on T-Mobile's network? I would like to read your thorough review, but right now, I just want to know about the VoLTE thing. Wi-Fi Calling too, but that is NOT a deal breaker like not having VoLTE is. Please just let me know. If you have screenshots of the option in Settings, or even more importantly, of a call where 4G LTE stays in place (and doesn't revert back to 4G or 3G) during the duration of the call, that would be awesome too.
Also, did you get the Single or Dual SIM version??
This is always a pain in the a$$ thing I have to research when recently buying unlocked phones for use on T-Mobile's network. I wish it wasn't like this, but whatever. lol
Thank you!!

I'm curious to know about the EU/UK and CA versions, too.
Regarding the Chinese variant (mine is LYA-AL00) on TMO US, I haven't been able to see the options for VoLTE or VoWIFI. Somebody on a European network with this version had the option, however. I guess TMO just seems to be special in that regard?
I'm at .137 as of last night.

Oh, my bad! I didn't scroll down far enough to the LTE section. Yes it does!! :good:
But of course, on T-Mobile, and the reason why it's a big deal to me, is that T-Mobile WON'T let you access its Band 12 radio band UNLESS the phone is certified with T-Mo for VoLTE. But I'm finding more and more exceptions to this. The OnePlus 5 for example that my dad has shows VoLTE as an option, the brand new Sony Xperia XZ3 I just bought (and returned) surprisingly had it, and the P20 Pro has it too. None of them have Band 71 though, which annoys me lol, b/c my area is about to get it soon. But whatever. I'm finding also that having the perfect phone just isn't an option for me. lol

Hey Nicely,
Thanks for responding back so quickly!
Ok. That sux!! lol But ok. I guess I'm keeping my OnePlus 6T then. Awesome phone for sure, but I know the camera on the Mate 20 Pro would outdo it, even with me using the GCam mod from XDA devs on it.
Ok how about anyone who owns the DUAL SIM L29 version?? If you have T-Mobile, does VoLTE work?? Sometimes different models work I think, so hopefully someone reading this has one and can confirm.
If not, I will wait for the P30 Pro and HOPEFULLY that does (and Band 71 wouldn't hurt either Huawei!! lol) too.
Again, thanks so much. At least now I know I'm not missing out since VoLTE is deal breaker for me personally.
