LTE bands

Am I the only one who is mad that no one is following apple on the one thing they did perfectly? Apple has almost every LTE band you could need in one device. I travel for work a lot, I have to go to Japan and middle East. The bands in the American nexus devices lacks every band used in Japan on DoCoMo (1,19,21) except the 5X has band 1.

Right now I'm debating nexus 6P (can't do a 32GB device do no 5X) or the iPhone 6S plus. I'd grab the nexus in a heart beat if it had the bands I need. Ugh I hate these decisions lol.

[TUTORIAL] How to unlock more LTE frequency bands on Mi Note Pro

This was not made by me all credits go to ethan2k the text below is exactly what he posted on miui forum hope this helps.

Hi All,

After 3 days of researching and semi bricking my phone, I have now worked out how to properly unlock most bands of LTE for international use!

NOTE: This guide is for Xiaomi Note Pro 64gb China version only.
***** THIS GUIDE WILL UNLOCK THE FOLLOWING BANDS: 4G bands: LTE band 1(2100), 2(1900), 3(1800), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 17(700), 20(800), 28(700) *****

First of all download this package. I have zipped it up into seperate folders.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-0...ew?usp=sharing

This driver pack only works on Windows 7!! Win 8 and 10 are not working!

Here goes:

1. Unzip the package into anyplace on your PC
2. On your phone type in: *#*#717717#*#* This will enable Diag USB mode for your phone
3. Before you plug your phone in, enable USB Debugging
4. Plug in USB cable into your phone, then go to Device Manager -
* Update the driver for Device Manager --> Ports (Com & LPT) --> Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 9025 from the Zip folder: "1. Xiaomi Diag Driver"
It should now look like this, remember what Com Port the Diagnostic 9025 is using, in my case its on COM11.

5. Install "2. QPST v2.7 Build 4.11" from zip package
6. Install "3. QXDM-3.12.714" from zip package
7. Open up QPST Configuration
8. Go to Ports tab - By default it should have found the phone and auto added the port.

9. Leave QPST running in background
10. Open up QXDM Professional
11. Go into Options --> Communications --> Enable the Com Port your phone is running on.
12. Back to QXDM main window, in the "View" drop-down menu, select NV Browser

13. Now the fun part begin

Inside the NV Browser window, scroll down and click on line 01877 (rf_bc_config)(1); click the Read button(2), save somewhere the original value in case something goes wrong (inside notepad or anything), replace Input value with 3460734838925427584(3) and click on Write button(4).

14. Inside the NV Browser window, scroll down and click on line 00946 (band_pref_16_31); click the Read button, save somewhere the original value in case something goes wrong (inside notepad or anything), replace Input value with 0x0FF8 (please don't be an idiot and don't edit the empty one with "nam" in the name) and click on Write button.


15. Inside the NV Browser window, scroll down and click on line 02954 (band_pref_32_63); click the Read button, save somewhere the original value in case something goes wrong (inside notepad or anything), replace Input value with 805765120 (please don't be an idiot and don't edit the empty one with "nam" in the name) and click on Write button.


16. 10. Inside the NV Browser window, scroll down and click on line 00441 (band_pref); click the Read button, save somewhere the original value in case something goes wrong (inside notepad or anything), replace Input value with 0x380 (please don't be an idiot and don't edit the empty one with "nam" in the name) and click on Write button.


17. Inside the NV Browser window, scroll down and click on line 06828 (lte_bc_config); click the Read button, save somewhere the original value in case something goes wrong (inside notepad or anything), replace Input value with 2061853925599 (please don't be an idiot and don't edit the empty one with "ext" in the name) and click on Write button.


18. On your phone type in: *#*#717717#*#* This will now disable Diag USB mode


19. Reboot your phone and its all complete!!!

Unlocking LTE Bands

Hey guys,

I'm really interested in picking up a 4c, and would be even more inclined to do so if LTE bands can be unlocked (Ideally bands 2, 4 and 12).

This has been done successfully in the past on Xiaomi devices (specifically the Mi Note Pro with the Snapdragon 810). Since the 808 shares a very similar architecture to the 810, I'm hoping it can be done on the 4c successfully.

Here are some resources and guides to start with:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/redm...mi-mi-t3084774

http://forum.xda-developers.com/onep...lcomm-t2877031
http://www.xda-developers.com/remove...ions-qualcomm/

Hopefully someone with a Mi 4c is able to try and confirm their success!

[One M9+] Add LTE Bands

Hi, anyone tried to add LTE Bands to this device?

Lg g4 lte bands

Through the Hidden Menu, it shows that the VS986 has LTE bands 2, 3, 5, 13. The unlocked version (GSM, international) of this phone has more bands then that.
Has Verizon disabled the other LTE bands. Has anybody activated the other ones.
I had a LG G3 verizon running a custom rom (snapdragon) , which picked up LTE internationally.
Anyone have any experience with the VS986 traveling internationally.

Does installing oxygen (from hydrogen) change the bands that device operates on?

I want to get an Op2 but don't wanna wait to be given an invite so I was looking at getting the Chinese version. However, it does not operate on the same bands as the north american. I read something that said that the os changes the bands and not the device its self.
"The general feeling in the OnePlus community is that the hardware on both phones is exactly the same and only the OS changes what bands and frequencies the phone uses." -

So does this mean we can just install oxygen on the Chinese version and you will have coverage in North america? It seems hard for that to be the case because the north american version and the EU/asia version both use oxygen correct? Yet if you look at the difference between the eu/asia, north american and chinese versions. You will you see that there are differences in the bands that the eu/asia model use and the northamerican model use.
