Do you experience issue on 5G network?
I live in Australia and no issues on 5G.
After a clean flash go into your sim card settings and make sure your preferred network type and access point names are set properly. By default it should prefer 5G networks, I don't have 5G so I have to set it to LTE. In the APNs menu you should be able to put a blue check mark next to the one you want to use. In my case there are three different names to pick from but only one is valid.

EEA ROM works the best, reception issue resolved. Safetynet passes if you root with Magisk.
Be careful, you'll damage the phone
I am in the UK and using xiaomi.eu stable ROM which is heavily de-bloated and optimised. It works very well so far.

Hello everyone..
my nexus 6 suddenly cannot see 2.4ghz wifi bands. Only 5ghz bands are showing in the wifi page. So far I tried:
1) clean install of pure nexus rom.
2) tried stock, elementalX, and franco kernel.
3) flashed the radio.zip provided in the forum.
4) tried Two different modems.
I did not try another ROM, should I?
Furthermore, other phones and laptops are able to see the 2.4ghz wifi band and are currently connected to it.
Any kind of help would be highly appreciated.
Cheers
Radios / modems only handle cellular, not wifi. WiFi is controlled by kernel modules, so something is blocking of disabling those, especially with the various ones you have tried. Logcat, dmseg, and / or last kmsg is what you need to troubleshoot.

I thought the local SIM card set the wifi region code. Have you tried a network settings reset (settings > wireless and networks > more > network settings reset)?

yes I did... It did not fix it?
it's really weird that there is no app or option to specify wifi region. I would really like to go back to pure Nexus since lineage OS is really slow compared to pure Nexus.

Pure Nexus is based on stock. What you're describing has been discussed in the google help forums. That's where I understood that the SIM card defines the Wi-Fi region. People have reported shutting down, pulling the SIM card, rebooting then repeating after replacing the SIM card *sometimes* helps.

There is a region changer app on the play store. Whether it works I can't speak to ?

just remove the sim card and you will see the hidden wifi bands. This is what I did:
removed sim card
clean flash rom
boot and see available Wifi
you will see that 2.4 ghz wifi is now showing
connect
now add the sim card.
I am not sure if you need to reflash your rom... Try to just remove the Sim card, restart and connect to the Wifi without Sim card.
my wifi was still not showing even though other 2.4ghz Wifi were showing. Changed the wifi channel from 13 to 2. Now the wifi is showing...

Channel 13 isn't used in the US. So if the Wi-Fi region (set by SIM card) is not right, channel 13 won't show. This seems to be a major annoyance outside of the US based on the number of complaints on the google forums. Removing the SIM card, connecting to the Wi-Fi and then reinstalling the SIM card has reportedly worked for some.
I am using the dual sim Exynos version of Note 9 and want to be able to force 4g LTE on either of the two sims as needed.
Can someone please advise how to do this on an unrooted phone? Thanks
Anyone?
I also found no solution. I think it's possible without root but no one is updating the Phone Information Apps. We need to get access at phone information 2 and not only on 1
Mine are both 4G / LTE. Inever need to switch the Sims around. Whichever I choose for days gets LTE. this is different from what I had in the Note 8. I was pleasantly surprised. Therefore it may be a settings issue for you. I have the Note 960F/D
you may try quickshortcutmaker app on exynis version and follow instructions in video
https://youtu.be/AdGAB4qRvYA
I feel like the Tasker App could handle this easily.
I dont understand the actual need.
Simply changing preferred network mode from LTE to 3G shall do to stop LTE on any sim.
I use LTE on both sims for calls
I use LTE for data on specific sim by making it as preferred sim for data.
Settings -- Networks -- Sim card manager shall help in these settings.
I am on exynos N960F Indian firmware.

You don't understand the actual need ??
So i will tell you
On my work i am located in a big Hall underground. The Provider i need down there is only coming in with -110 dB and less which is one LTE Bar. If i leave Automatic Mode it switches always in 2g Mode because of much higher Signal. So to get a nice experience and have LTE always available there is no other solution. The same kind of problem is on my other LTE Sim when on different Locations during the Day ! So i have no time to always switch sim cards so that sim2 is forcing lte !
And off course no one else knows this and so i benefit of this extremely fast connection where all others are crying because of no 4g connection

OK understood.
Did not you get one UI already which has option of LTE only selection too for network mode.
Negative. Here the German Rom (dbt csc unbranded)
Has never got LTE Only mode in the menu. This is also for all European Roms. I have had this only when using Root and Custom Roms.
Because i use many banking and streaming apps it's not possible to root this time. Even with Magisk Hide they will not work.
If i could i would have rooted long time ago. This is getting me Crazy really

Sorry but are you reading my Post?
I am talking LTE Only on Sim Slot 2 of any Samsung Phone out today. All the LTE Only Apps or the Phone Info Menu where they lead you is only working on Sim Slot 1.
I am sure there is a dial code like the one it gets you to the Phone1 Information Screen where you can change the bands. But only for Sim 2 (Phone info 2) on Samsung.
So again LTE Only on sim Slot 2 on Samsung Duos Versions is not Possible @ the moment without Root!
If there is any Dev out there you would be the first One to create an app where Phone INFO 2 is possible to change! Or just find the right hidden code for that i know it's there like the Phone Information 1
Hi,
There's an option to force the selected APN to LTE only but I don't know if it will behave like you want to.
What's great is that it's per SIM so you can try any combinaisons.
Deselect "undefined" and select only the "LTE" one (screenshots).
I expect that if it find any other bands getting a better signal than LTE, it will just let the phone loss the signal and not trying to catch the LTE one, but you can try.

Hey thanks for that. I really was in hope this could work but that would have bean to easy. Unfortunately it's not changing bands after deselecting undefined and than choose some network mode it remains to the same band but it looses the mobile data symbol (but still remains in same band).

This code and all Codes are not working on European Samsung Devices with Android 9 .
I Even Rooted my Galaxy Note 9 and all the hidden codes are Not working ! Even Samsung Phone Info App or other Apps are not working with Latest Android 9.
Only way is Root and Custom Rom like Alex Dev Rom where the CSC is Modified. There it was possible to change both Sim to LTE Only ! But as told before with Root
i loose to many services which are detected even with Magisk . So my next Phone will not be Samsung anymore because of that.
How do you do this on mi8?
I can on phone call while using mobile data to chat on my iPhone 7
You description needs more details. However, it seems that you are wanting to make phones using data and you can't?
If you have properly gone through your settings and enabled WIFI calling and Mobile data, and you are still experiencing an issue, then try checking your APN settings.
There is a very good chance that your settings are incorrect and it's why you are experiencing this issue.
He is asking why data is disabled when you answer a phone call.
I have the same issue on Sphinx + AOSiP
With my older Xiaomi Redmi 4X I was able to browse the net while speaking to someone on the phone.

Voice over LTE (VoLTE or HD Voice)? Is that what you mean? VoLTE enables LTE voice calls which sounds clearer than using 4G (HSPA+) and sometimes this is needed to simultaneously use calls and data (internet, downloads, etc).
Make sure your carrier supports this technology, and that your carrier's APNs are properly set up. If your carrier doesn't support VoLTE, it's not a problem, but the following steps will not help you. As far as I have an understanding, if you have two SIM cards active, you can only use one SIM card at a time for multiple functions. Also, I have only tested this in SIM slot 1.
Go to Settings > Additional Settings > Region. Set your region to Hong Kong. This may automatically install some bloatware (useless) apps, but you can delete them as they are mainly for China. Once this is done, try to call and see if it sticks to LTE and allows you to use your internet. IF IT DOES NOT, go to your dialer (phone app) and dial *#*#86583#*#*
You will see a message pop up at the bottom of the screen, this is normal. Now you should be able to enable/disable VoLTE in the carrier settings (Settings > SIM cards and Mobile Networks > tap your SIM card and phone number). It should already be enabled by default. Now try again. If it still doesn't work, double check your APN settings or contact your carrier to see if this phone fully supports their network.
As a bonus, setting the region to Hong Kong also unlocks the Face Unlock functionality, although I believe it has already been enabled with the latest update. KEEP THE REGION SET TO HONG KONG. Do not change it back as this will disable VoLTE. Region does not affect languages or other phone functionality, so it is safe to keep it this way.
Just got my Pixel yesterday, noticed that I don't have any sign of 5G connection even if I have everything activated on my sim and used 5g in my area with a Huawei P40 Pro....
I noticed, when I accessed the *#*#4636#*#* menu that it shows my sim card as sim2. I know that on second sim there's no 5g and I wonder if that's the problem. If it is, is there a way I can solve it and make the phone see my sim (physical, and my only sim) as sim 1?

I know that. But it doesn't connect to the 5G network, even if the phone itself is set up to use NR, LTE and all the stuff there. It stays connected to LTE only.

Yes, tested with P40 Pro, working. Here's the Pixel
https://support.google.com/pixelphone/answer/9449293?hl=en
Do you have both SIM activated? It says "Pixel 5 and Pixel 4a (5G) phones with two SIMs in use will fall back to 4G networks. To connect to 5G networks, temporarily turn off the SIM that isn't set to use data."

Nope, I don't have both SIM activated. I only have a physical SIM that's in the phone, no Esim and still, it shows it's SIM 2. That's why I asked if I could reset or something and make the only sim I use SIM1, I suspect it has something to do with the phone keeping 5G off for it.
Hello balenax
I have the same issue I am based in Kuwait. They told me that my carrier needs to do some configurations with the manufacturer (Google) and then google will enable it with a software update. The physical sim I installed says Sim 2 similar to yours and once I tell it to use NR only the Network goes away instantly. I will play with 2nd sim and tell you if something happens. Please do update me if you try something

Yes, I think it's similar to OnePlus 8, the 5G connecting is enabled only for some carriers. It's a matter of time (hopefully) but I'm afraid they won't do that for unsupported countries (I'm from Romania and Pixel is not sold here officially).
Our best bet is root and edit the carrier policy files, just as on OnePlus.
I'm not that eager to do that, I'll wait for a while and see, maybe it will be solved by Google and operators.

Yes it's the same for all 5g Androids and unsupported countries, unfortunately. It is really frustrating since the bands are supported. Only Samsung, Apple, and Huawei devices are supported everywhere since they make deals with everyone. I hope this 5g mess gets fixed soon. I am not a fan of rooting my Pixel. I am hoping it will be fixed by beg on Next Year. I just tried installing an esim but it shows up as sim 3 so there seems to be something blocking the use of sim 1. It would be interesting if someone with 5g working to give us a screenshot of the Phone info I suspect that they will be on Sim 1 . If yes is it region locked!

Hi. I don't know how to fix this. I have mi 11 cn version flashed with eu rom.i have 5g and lte signal for both sim cards but they can't make or get in coming calls( my network tries to go back to 2g/3g signal to make a call). I tried both my sim cards to another phone and they are working just fine. I was able to manually switch them to both 2g and 3g with the other phone. I did the *#3646 thing to manually choose a network but it still doesn't work. Tried to reset this a couple of time and even reverted back to cn rom still no luck.
Haven't studied this in detail so not even sure if it is even an issue. But I heard china 5G or 4G etc networks and phones use certain radio bands that are different than in US or Europe or other continents. Perhaps this is why your phone has no 5G reception...?
i have 5g reception.the one that is not working are 2g and 3g.this was working before.im not sure if it it due to eu rom.i know the signal are good because i tried my sim card on a different phone and all receptions are working.
