I enabled VOLTE (I think) by putting a code into the dialer. Since then, next to my signal and 4G, it has "HD" on the notification bar. I have dual SIM so it shows twice (twice as unnecessary). Is there a way to hide this?
Im not rooted and never quite figured out how to use ADB etc...
I tried to include a picture, but I have not posted enough to add it.
If you can see HD in SIM, the reason is you carrier and you SIM Card have VoLTE service active, this allow make voice calls through LTE connection and is good for you.
The code for disable or enable "region check" is:
*#*#86583#*#*
Check in Settings / Network & Internet / Mobile Network / Advance
The option
Enhaced 4G LTE Mode OFF ON
Use LTE services to improve voice and
other communications (recommended)
This option ON or OFF the HD in you phone.
Use the code to activate the hide option, turn OFF and use the code again to hide the option.

Hello!
You can hide this icon via "System UI Tuner". You can access to it using Nova Launcher, you can search in Google about it.

Does anyone know if there is a widget capable of toggling the 4g on and off?
I haven't found a widget but you can switch between 4g/3g in this menu...
Settings > Wireless & Network settings > Mobile Networks > Network Mode
That's been my current method, but i'm looking for something much faster for when I know ill be watching nfl live stream or using the market.
I have not found one either. Extended controls has the controller widget but I don't think it's updated for Bionic yet. Errors saying your device is not 4g-capable.
Have you tried Power Control Plus? I don't know if it's compatible with the Bionic (and I haven't seen any upgrade notices for it recently), but I believe it had a 4G toggle available.
The app "LTE Switch" is good. throw a shortcut on the homescreen and it takes you directly to the settings to turn it on/off

In my opinion this works good. it also gives you the choice for 1ex (cdma only) in those areas (like my work) where the phone is trying to access 3g but cant.
So you have the option to go 1ex, 3g or lte.
I just downloaded LTE switch and I agree that it works well enough for now.
Zdbox network widget works as well
I am running the dual sim version XT1068, CM12.1 nightly build.
I hate those carrier names or the 'No sim, no service' thing on the lockscreen!
(On 5.0.2 : I tried the well-known method: the "Hide Carrier Label" xposed module.
It hides the carriers names after activating it (& rebooting) for once, but after the screen is turned off or phone switched off, the carrier names get back in their places.
I checked Xposed, modules,app settings, but all appeared fine to me. But it never worked again. )
On 5.1.0 :
Since Xposed is not yet supported (pre-alpha, so bugs&bugs) is there a fix for this?
Ok, I've never looked at a 1068 and don't run a CM rom, but a standard phone setting in "cellular network settings" allows you to show or not show the mobile network name. Or are you talking about more.
I just saw the lockscreen part. There are a bunch of excellent configurable lockscreen replacements on Play and several excellent ones that are completely free.

Hey everyone
I've tried looking through all the settings
How do I get rid of the text saying ee WiFi calling?
Many thanks
Marcus
Wish I knew the answer. When it's on WiFi calling, notifications are hidden behind the notch. Very irritating.
Someone must have an answer ?
I guess you can disable 'Display carrier name' in settings. Just search for it. I believe the mobile operators often add an extra 'Wifi' part to the name thus making it somewhat extra long. Not sure
about the 'Calling' part, I don't get that, instead on my phone I just get a VoWiFi symbol and the carrier name (with WiFi) scrolling over from time to time. I'm on 128.
On mine, I have two choices. It can say "EE Wi-Fi Calling" - which is far too long, or I can remove the carrier name from with Apps & Notifications > Notifications & Status Bar, but then there's no icon or anything to tell me Wi-Fi calling is available.
Previous phone (LG G5) simply showed the Wi-Fi calling icon instead. It's a bit of an annoyance, but I guess I'll have to live with it. Almost everything else about the phone is brilliant.
Does anyone know of a 5g 4g toggle / widget or easy way to change the network setting for the pixel 5? I don't see an easy way to do it without jumping through the settings menu hoops but I could be missing something. Running on t-mobile USA if that matters.
how do you do it through the menu?

Settings - Network & internet - Mobile network - Preferred network type
Then choose the toggle of the network you want to use 5g LTE 3g or 2g
I was just hoping to be able to more easily switch between 5g and lte if I'm not going to be doing anything too bandwidth intensive and want to extend my battery life.
ok, so the built in app "phone services" has this activity called radio info. you can create a shortcut to it using nova launcher for example, or other apps that let you create shortcuts directly to activities. there's a drop down menu there that lets you change the 4g/5g (and 3g and 2g too). it's not a one click solution, but it's much faster than the other way (like 2-3 clicks).
Hey u can change it in phone info
Then set preferred network type if u don't know these setting do not mess it.

Currently Running GrapheneOS - coral-factory-2021.01.23.03 (Not rooted)
I switched from Google Fi to Metro by T mobile as a carrier however for my phone the google fi esim refuses to remove from that status bar even after defaulting to T Mobile.
I've reseated by physical sim to prompt the carrier selection process and rebooted by phone to finish switching over to T Mobile however Google Fi network icon appears in that status bar.
There is currently no option to delete.
I am wondering what tools may be available to hid or edit system icons.
Thanks in Advance!
