Question Disable 5G? - Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra

I'm using an unlocked model and the "5G" (not UW) on Verizon is much slower than the 4G in my area. Is there any way to disable it?
It's 20mbps vs 100+mbps

Just go into network and change from 5G/4G/3G/2G to 4G/3G/2G

Mine doesn't have those options.

A lot of issues with 5G and it's implementation both networks and on phones.
Rarely does it justify its existence except in limited areas. It's also a known battery hog even if not in use. Blame Qualcomm's bum rushing for that.
Avoid any 2 chipset solutions for 5G like the plague.
At first I had minor regrets of not having it on my 10+... now I'm damn glad I don't!

Try this
From play store download the app "Phone by Google"
Open the app and dial *#*#4636#*#* it's gonna open a secret menu,go to set preferred network type and change to LTE/CDMA/GSM/WCDMA

"Cell Information" Running In Status Bar???

Guys,
I just got my unlocked D5803 compact today and put my T-Mobile SIM in it to test, and I've got this app called "cell information" running in the status bar in the upper left. I It just lists T-Mobile and the time I put the SIM in, however I can't get this icon to go away. I am missing something stupid?
Thanks,

This worked! Thanks! I wonder why the heck they have this enabled. It doesn't do anything or give you any information. I don't remember seeing this in past Xperia Z phones. This is build 23.0.A.2.93. I believe this is a Latin America variant D5803, however it the packaging is in all English.

Verizon issued Nexus 6 *#*#3282#*#* question

Can someone with a Verizon Nexus 6 take a screenshot of the LTE Bands in the *#*#data#*#* menu? I've been using a Sprint Nexus 6 on Verizon with no issues, but I'm curious why it doesn't show me the correct LTE bands in the menu. Using LTE Discovery, I know I'm on the right bands. I just don't know why they're not in the menu. Also, if anyone knows the EDIT password for the menu, it would be appreciated as I'd like to know what's the options are in there.
I searched and couldn't find a PW that works anywhere.
Here's what mine looks like.

I have a Moto NX6 that is on VZW, my screen shows exactly the same as yours. I am running LMY47D with the Radio from 47E.
@djsiva
It's like that for everyone (there would be no different)
And password would be "000000" (6 time 0)
Thanks Danny for confirming the status. The 000000 has already been tried and it didn't work. I think because it was a sprint phone and needs the MSL for the password.
Mine shows those bands as on..... Telus phone, 47e..... 000000 pass code did work....
The 000000 pw works on my verizon nexus, all bands indicate off, what benifit/detriment would there be to turning then on

[Q] Nexus 6 WiFi issue

So I got brand new Nexus 6 from Verizon a week ago and before installing any apps i used NRT 2.04 to unlock the bootloader and root the phone. Everything works fine except annoying issue with WiFi. What happens is that if you leave phone untouched for a long time you will discover that WiFi indicator as well signal strength indicator have ! on it and if you look on WiFi status it still says connected but in reality it's not so any help is appreciated.
Another question where the hell toggle to switch between Vibrate, Silent and Ring mode disappeared?
What are your advanced settings?

Add Band RF to At&t note 3

Hello, i'm new and don't have much knowledge if I will ask have a solution, but here we go... (sorry for my english)
I have a SM-N900A with 4.4.2 Kitkat and rooted with xposed. Now in my country, 3G only works on 900 Mhz (wcdma), I followed various topics about "unlock all bands in qualcomm cpu but i don´t have good results.
First, I can´t pull in USB Settings (*#0808#) CP option and RNDIS + DM +Modem at the same time.

If I keep the AP option, I can advance a little more in the process (i'dont know if is correct its). If I do it with mztool and QXDM I reach to get that the phone shows me differents regions, include select the wcdma 900 mhz band(see the picture), but never can get the 3G services (EDGE Works correctly ).
In case that I try by original way (QPST write phone) I got an alert on windows that only says "ban" and then continues, but before to finish , other alert "the phone has stopped responding to memory read write commands". and not work any mode,(no 2g, no 3g).In effect , normally don't pass it from "unlock Sim card" when I insert the PIN code.
What can i do for add this band to my phone, I love this phone, and I do not want to throw it away for this. thanks

Just flash the Verizon firmware using patched Odin
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s10/how-to/g975u-g975u1-firmware-links-t3905897
HD voice is just that, high def voice calls
VoLTE is what they term the entire thing, but that also allows data+voice
my unlocked s10 on verizon allows all, including wifi calling.
