Help w/ verizon. Porsche design dual sim, internet works. But phone call doesn't? - Huawei Mate 10 Questions & Answers

HELP W/ VERIZON. PORSCHE DESIGN DUAL SIM, INTERNET WORKS. BUT PHONE CALL DOESN'T?
I GOT THE APN WORKING... but phone just freezes..
I am on 129 and BLA-L29.
Wondering if I need to rebrand to turn on VOLTE for phone call to work?

not sure if it will work my friend. the phone does not have cdma.

So data is not based on CDMA? Cause I got data to work?
Also, before they cancelled the agreement, AT&T and Verizon was planning to sell huawei phones, i dont think they would engineer 2 versions of the phone? Only single sim and dual rim, maybe re branding?

Data is not CDMA - it's LTE.
The only way it would work for calls is if you could get VoLTE working.
Huawei did actually make a different (hardware-wise) phone for the US market. But it's not for CDMA networks. We never found proof that there was a verizon Mate 10 Pro, only AT&T.

I know verizon turns on VoLTE by default.
The phone itself should support it on Tmobile or AT&T.
So I wonder if i rebrand with a dual sim, would it work?
Has anyone tried a USA rebrand from a international dual sim?
Or how to activate VoLTE for sure in the mate 10 pro

So I checked the VoLTE and it’s provisioned on the phone as well as HD calling and video calling features.
Next I checked with Verizon and the feature is turned on? So what am I missing??

did you ever get it to work? are you able to make calls?

no, it seems like the VoLTE provisioned jumps back to off when it connects to Verizon. I called Verizon, and they said it's trying to connect on voice. VoLTE is on Verizon and the phone's hardware is capable.
It's really weird, since I bought the phone after PORSCHE DESIGN store had one from Europe dual sim one. They are the ones that told me everything works. I wanted to try it with a Verizon sim there, but they said they couldn't let me try it!
so I have one plus 5 which has the band for Verizon LTE, it connected to LTE and falls back to 3G, calls and internet on 3G.
Mi Mix2 works with VoLTE with Verizon, the APN all populated automatically with Verzion. But I don't think Mi had Verizon certified their devices. but Mix 2 works with Verizon LTE... I will try to take pictures. another phone is ZTE that works with Verizon .. but it's ugly.

so you have the international version? i was gonna buy one from best buy which is the US version i wonder if it will work different

Late to the party here, but have you tried calling Verizon and have them turn off CDMA Provisioning for your account? I had to do that with my HTC U11 since it doesn't have any CDMA radios. It's a pure LTE-only phone.

Metro PCS S5

Metro PCS just announced the S5 without contract for $649.99. Since Metro PCS is now owned by T-Mobile I would assume that their S5 is the same as the T-Mobile S5 with the same LTE bands. Does anybody know this for sure. I am out of town and can't get to a Metro PCS store or a Best Buy to confirm.
I was actually wondering the same thing myself and have looked into it. Here's what I've come up with.
T-Mobile - http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SM-G900TZKATMB
MetroPCS - http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SM-G900TRKATMB
They are both listed as having the same bands and it seems implied they both fall under the SM-G900T. For rooting though it is listed separately as the SM-G900T1.
http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/
That said, perhaps someone can explain any possible differences.
On a side note since I'm trying to figure out which one to buy here is a comparison I've come up with:
tmobile - 720 after tax - unlock after 40 days - 50 per month cheapest
metropcs - 700 after tax - unlock after 90 days - 40 per month cheapest
Thanks for the info. Now the question is which way to go.

Im very interested in buying the MetroPCS model as BestBuy.com sells it at regular price and they have an awesome 18-Month no interest if you use their card. Enticing enough that i bought one and will be testing it out on AT&T use. Worst case scenario i return it...big deal.

Anyone try this yet?
I have a TMO Note 3 that works great on ATT after entering the unlock code.
This looks like a good way to get a device on ATT and not have to wait possibly forever LOL for the exploit/root/unlock bootloader, etc.

Have one here, requested unlock code from cellunlocker.net. Got an email about 3 hours later that there's a delay and they need to check an alternative database.
I've read it's TMO and indeed it has wifi calling. As long as there are no issues with the unlock code (crosses fingers) I believe this should be a go just like my TMO note 3 on ATT. Have no problems using it whatsoever.
Updating in case anyone is interested.
Got my unlock code about three hours after yesterday's post.
Was able to unlock using deepfreeze code first, then network unlock code afterward!
I called ATT to switch a nano sim to a micro sim and mistakenly gave them the (Metro PCS) S5 IEMI! Don't do this as it will prevent LTE from working. I asked the associate if I could switch IEMIs and she said sure. I gave her the IEMI of my M8, restarted the phone and LTE is now working.
Just flashed TWRP and the Alliance Rom about an hour ago.
Running fine on ATT here with unlocked bootloader.
So if you're on ATT and want an S5 with an unlocked bootloader, this is probably the cheapest option outside of buying on swappa, etc.
I checked the APN settings in Google hangouts and it shows METROPCS as the selected APN, even though I am on a T MOBILE S5 And service.
What's weird is I never set up any APNs since having the phone so it must have came with those settings preinstalled.

What's the model number of the MetroPCS S5?
So I got a metro PCs phone unlocked it at https://www.unlocklocks.com/
And now I have it on T-Mobile no problems what so ever
I used hangouts for SMS so the apns where there already
And in order to enable the built in hotspot without root I went into wireless connections and added the APN for T-Mobile by copying everything as it was on my note 3, and just like that hotspot is activated

It's the same as tmobile I think, I'm using a metro pcs galaxy s5 and it says SM-G900T1

Since there isn't a dedicated MetroPCS section due it being 99% compatible with TMO ROMs, etc. I'd like to post an issue here that I'm having with my S5 from MPCS in hopes someone else has found a resolution. The issue I'm having is getting a tethering "hack" to work with my service. Has anyone found one that works successfully for them? Thanks!

[Q] Can I Flash an AT&T Rom to Get LTE?

Newbie here.....
I have a Verizon LG G3 that I am using with AT&T.
It works well but a couple of issues I'd like to address.
1) I only get H+ and would like to get LTE
2) I am having issues with sending & receiving mms messages where the pictures wont send if I'm on WiFi but send fine when I'm on the data network.
Is there any way to correct/ improve these issues?
Can I flash the stock AT&T rom on the Verizon phone and would it work?
Any help and/ or enlightenment is greatly appreciated.

also..mms has to do with apn settings...
Thanks for the info.
Do you know if the Verizon version has all the LTE bands as the AT&T version but just has them locked or deactivated somehow?
Is there any way to get LTE working for AT&T on the Verizon version?

I have the correct ATT apns and when I receive a MMS I have to turn off WiFi in order to download the picture. It has something to do with the phone
You will get LTE off AT&T (and T-Mobile) if they are using Band4 in your current area. In some areas they use a different band, maybe band 21 - I can't remember offhand. Our VS985 cannot use band21, it uses band 4 and band 13 for LTE though.
It has been figured out that it is also possible to enable Band3 LTE on the VS985, but that is only going to help in other countries, particularly France.

I recently went through this. I was assured from att that I would get lte. Well, after days of trouble shooting with att and trying different hacks I could only get h+
I even went right next to a strong att tower area and still could not. For mms the only way I could get it to work was by using textra, which had a fix for mms by turning off wifi.
What I have learned is that there are some att bands that are locked out in the Verizon phone. There was an xda post that almost had it figured out but nobody could get it working.
H+ is pretty fast by the way, but I was unsatisfied so I am back on Verizon.
And also, do not ever flash anything other than a Verizon rom and radio.

I would message @autoprime about this. He was recently working on unifying all G3 variants' modems since they all use the same radio with different bands unlocked. He may have a method to unlock the bands you need.

Did you make sure Band 4 was supported in your area? I know that's the only LTE band that is supported by the Verizon G3 variant.
The VErizon version uses only the Verizon modem (radio) firmware. It does not and cannot enable the ATT LTE bands.. Just so happens that one band is the same. For the rest you are out of luck. Read this for more information.

Will an unlocked T-Mobile LG v10 work with a Verizon sim card?

Topic.
I know the reverse is true. Verizon LG v10 comes unlocked and putting in a T-Mobile sim card works. I have heard people having small issues with 4G LTE calls or extra battery usage, but everything works as both phones share all the same bands except for one.
I love the LG v10, but not having root is driving me a little mad. I've never not had a rooted phone since I got my first smartphone the original Motorola Droid with the slide-out keyboard (and it doesn't look like that will change anytime soon on the Verizon version, if ever). Although LG has a TON of customization stock, I miss the little extras root gives you. At this point I'd be fine with just root access and not even worry about custom roms or kernels.
I'd like to sell my Verizon LG v10 and buy the T-mobile LG v10 H901 so I can have the best of both worlds.
IS IT POSSIBLE?
I would like to know as well

There may be a few issues as you noted in going the other way, but to my knowledge, once you get in carrier unlocked, it is possible and should work...

If I'm not mistaken, Verizon runs on CDMA and lte, tmo is GSM and lte... But most phone now by law must run on all available technologies... Bandwidth might be off a little, but for the most part have to be compatible... This is why, when in network settings, it gives options for CDMA, even though tmobile can't use it... It all has to do with the deregulation of cell service laws they passed a few years back... In layman's terms, they have to allow phones and networks to be compatible (1) for e911 services, and (2) for phone and carrier portability.

Zdeuce2, WCDMA is not the same as CDMA. It is a 3G technology used on GSM networks. The CDMA equivalent is (was?)EV-DO and later, SV-DO.
Unless Verizon has moved on from CDMA as a whole for voice (they might have, I'm not sure) then compatibility will be questionable.
@ZDeuce2, what @LvDisturbed1 said.
WCDMA has nothing to do with Verizon's CDMA. WCDMA is one of the signaling technologies within the UMTS specification, old-school 3G stuff.
In the context of the radio mode selector on our phone, "WCDMA" denotes UMTS/HSPA/HSPA+/HSPA+DC (basically anything that isn't GSM+GPRS/EDGE or LTE).
In other words, the selector values can be thought of as 2G ("GSM"), 3G ("WCDMA"), 4G ("LTE").

The answer is yes, a T-Mobile LG V10 will work on Verizon. However, Verizon actively black lists any phone that is not purchased directly through Verizon. Purchasing an iPhone at an Apple store often runs into this exact same issue. Verizon's poorly trained customer service reps are unaware that Verizon has transitioned to all calls, text and data across LTE in major cities and most outlying areas and insists that the T-Mobile H901 must run on CDMA to connect (false), H901 is not compatible simply because the Verizon employee is told to say so by corporate.
I had filed a complaint with the FCC. Verizon issued a generic response saying that all of "Verizon's" phones are unlocked from purchase and that only approved Verizon devices will function on their network. The FCC was satisfied with this generic response and closed the case. If the FCC continues to receive these complaints, eventually they will make a move in our favor.

You're on the updated marshmellow Verizon V10 than id assume? Since root was achieved for the Verizon v10 but only for LP.

No, it is not possible, because the T-mobile variant does not have CDMA modem/radio.
Not possible, as others have stated, if it was a Verizon on T-mobile yes because it has both CDMA & GSM radios, T-mobile variant is lacking that CDMA radio.

Samsung Tab S6 wifi variant might have lte

When I pulled out the sim tray for sd card noticed the other side had spot for sim tray filled in. I popped out plastic part and noticed SMS function is disabled. Me thinks once the LTE variant comes out we're could flash that software on the wifi variant and cellular might work.
yeah noticed that too, it seems to have the sim card reader circuit on the inside of the tablet so yeah might be a free upgrade down the line
Yeah kinda excited for that.
You will brick phone.
Why is that? I'm flashing the same software on the same device.
Even if you could flash the LTE enabled firmware on the wifi Tab S6, it won't enable LTE. There's no IMEI assigned to the SIM slot (which I doubt there even is a SIM slot.
You mentioned that SMS function is disabled. I may know why.
I have a Galaxy Note 10+ through T-Mobile and I was able to enable the "Call and Text on other devices" feature through the Advanced Features section of the settings on both the phone and tablet. I can now get SMS and Phone calls through my tablet, as long as the Tab S6 is connected to WiFi.
I do hope that the tablet can be LTE enabled in the long run but I think for now this is just a feature to share phone capabilities with your actual phone.

Yeah who knows i know with the one plus 7 pro snd 6t you could flash the interntional software and put a dual sim tray in the phone with the tmobile variants and it will do dual sim so hopefully it can be like that lol either way is whatever but that would be a cool added feature
I would love this, My tab is coming today, but EXTREMELY unlikely as that would mean they lied to the FCC and have the LTE baseband radios
Assuming it has a cellular radio, in addition to not having the s/w to support data or dialing, it doesn't have an antenna. While you may be able to insert a nano SIM in the card tray that doesn't mean there's anything in the tablet to read it.
Unlocked cellular tabs are XX5 and the carrier versions are XX7 while the Wi-Fi versions are XX0. You cannot flash a ROM that's not for your specified model number and this isn't new, it's always been that way. People have gotten Wi-Fi-only ROMs to work on cellular Tabs but it blew away all the cellular features. People have driven themselves nuts over time trying to activate the dialer and MMS on a XX7 by flashing XX5 s/w and no one's been successful. But many tablets got bricked trying. And both of those devices had an active cellular radio with all the correct supporting h/w. Do a search on XDA or browse older generation Tab forums to learn more.

Crazy thinking this would work. Best is to get an LTE version if you really need it ?
Seriously, this non story has been doing the rounds since at least the Galaxy S4 phone.
Samsung DO NOT build the modems into non LTE devices, however for manufacturing simplicity and spare parts reasons use the same combo Micro SD SIM adapter.
Anyone who believes this will work can I perhaps interest you in my private shares in the London Bridge Holding Company that I might be wiling to sell.
can anyone who has the T865/LTE model confirm that it includes the Samsung Phone app and you can place/receive calls with the T865 model? I have Tab S4 LTE that i use for work in the field and having the phone part of the tablet is a must for me. thanks to anyone who can reply to my question.

I read about two hours ago about being able to do Samsumg calling and texting using my samsung account on my verizon connected Note 10 plus , I enabled it and it works flawlessly, it uses my Note 10 plus remotely to make calls, however!, before all this i had downloaded My Verizon messeges app from the play store and i did the pairing barcode so i can get text on my tab s6 from my verizon phone number, it worked but no calls on my verizon messages app, "until" i enabled Samsung calling and text! the next time i opened my verizon messages i got a pop alerting me that i could now CALL from my verizon messages app so i enabled it. I tried calling right after and it worked!! i do not see the remote calling notification on my Note 10 plus when using the verizon messaging app.
#1. I work for Verizon retail but as far as my understanding a tablet must have a designated phone number with verizon (1×/3g/4g) to be able to receive text from the verizon network thru my verizon messaging app. The tablet was able to receive messages to my surprise. Although it did let me somewhat select the call option in my verizon messages it didnt work for calling at 1st.
2. Enabling Samsung calling and texting gives the tablet a "Voip" phone number? Is it my carrier number? Without an IMEI ID or SIM ID? And lets me call from a messaging app using my carrier phone #? ??
3. That was sick!! And if it helps anyone please dont thank me. ?
Wrong post.

Wifi calling

I'm a little confused about wifi calling. I'm on US99830B using a Straight talk sim. I found out they offer wifi calling now. I just need a new sim from them. But, does it work with the version of Pie that I'm on? I thought I read that it didn't but I see others saying it does.

Straight Talk what? Straight Talk AT&T, Straight Talk Verizon, Straight Talk T-mobile, Straight Talk Sprint?
You can't just say Straight Talk. Straight Talk uses underlying carriers and many options depend on those carriers. For instance, since T-mobile allows Wi-Fi calling on US998 (which is NOT a T-mobile branded phone), any Straight Talk T-mobile account would probably also have Wi-Fi calling.
But since AT&T does NOT allow Wi-Fi calling on non-AT&T branded phones, then neither will Straight Talk AT&T.
So, you need to find out what particular carrier your Straight Talk SIM card is using, if you don't already know. There are codes and colors that will tell you that. Straight Talk will tell you if you ask hard enough. They like to pretend they are this standalone company, but they are just re-selling the 4 major carrier services but with lower prioritization and adding lag.
I used to have Straight Talk AT&T and eventually dumped them to go to what is now AT&T Prepaid. I was already using AT&T carrier services and the part that kept screwing up was Straight Talk's fault. So, I cut out the middleman.
You're right, I forgot to mention that. It's ATT

Don't think so, since it's not an AT&T branded phone. (For some reasons iPhones or at least some iPhones seem to be an exception.)
But check this link. It's for all Tracfone companies.
Good luck.

The link tells me exactly what I said. I would need a new sim card. But, my question was is wifi calling even working on US99830B?

It does. I forget exactly how to enable it, but it does. My carrier on the lock screen says T-Mobile Wi-Fi Calling

Yeah, T-Mobile allows it. Not sure AT&T does. I know it doesn't on AT&T Prepaid on US998.
