Hello, I bought M9+ in Dubai, where it was said LTE band 20 (800MHz) is not supported. To be precise, FDD band 20 was missing in the listing. I know for sure, the HW is absolutely the same as the EU version (even the MID code wasthe same), so I chnged the CID to HTC__032 (EU) and applied EU OTA which I thought would replace the radio file allowing me to use this band wich is perfectly usable on EU versions i Czech Republic.
But it seems that it either does not work or the radio was not changed (or perhaps there is more to be done?)...
How can I chec which LTE bands are configured to be supported? What can I do to support band 20 if it is not set atm?
Hi. I purchase a Blu VIVO 5R from amazon uk
The product description was that the phone sold by amazon have the following bands 4G LTE/FDD (2/4/7/12/17), 3G (850/1700/1900/2100)
But the one that it came have the following band 3G: (900/1900/2100) 4G FDD LTE: (1/3/7/20) TDD LTE: (38/38/40/41)
So im unable to receive 4G sinal (i need the FDD b4)
Is there any way to activate the band 4? maybe by installing another rom?
I checked on willmyphonework and its seems that there is only one version. That is why i think that maybe is possible to activate it..
Any help will be much apreciate.
Thanks for reading.

Hi,
If you want you can try to flash newer update V25. It's here https://forum.xda-developers.com/vivo-5r/how-to/blu-vivo-5r-stock-roms-bluv0090eev11-t3492756
Backup your important data. Use SP flash tool to flash the newer update. Let it ran through the setup, and then factory reset.
Please let us know if you managed to fix the problem. Thanks.
Hi. I have UK version BLU_V0090EE if I flash it with the USA versión Blu V0090UU would be able to use the lte bands from USA or would just brick the phone?

Hi, I have a korean LG G6 G600L model. I am based in Germany and use the T-Mobile (DTAG) network. LTE Band 3 works but I would like to check the LTE band list on the device itself. Does somebody know the network test menu code for this specific device/network?
Additionally is it theoretically possible to exchange the modem driver to enable additional LTE bands (Band 20 in my case) ? Is it only possible with root?
Happy to test stuff on this device as I would really like to keep it and improve the LTE reception. I love the DAC btw.
Thanks.

Hello
Just a question
Do you think if i flash a different firmware (H870) in my mobile (G600L) i can receipt UMTS 900 ?
It will not help u to add WCDMA b8 900 to supported bands, because:
1. Korean submodels probably have no hardware antenna support for this band, which is totally unusable in Korea;
2. U will not be able to flash another submodel's stock to Korean models without root and some rom cooking preparations, flasher just restricts u to flash another submodel's stock;
3. In case u modify another submodel's stock enough to sucesfully flash it to Korean model, but without Korean kernel, modem and specific patches - it will probably softbrick ur device.

Thank you for your reply.
I will change my modele by another
So I can confirm that G600L is not only showing the bands but also work with them. Band20 and 3 successfully tested here in Germany. Now if it would be possible to configure VoLTE with T-Mobile or cross-flash the german firmware but still keep the DAC would be perfect for me...
Looks like the Korean version has the most international 4G LTE Bands. The rest of the models in Asia barely have any 4G LTE Bands. Not sure what is used with this. Is the Korean version a dual sim version as well? Anyone have a picture of the box of the Korean version? There is usually a sticker on there that shows which 4G LTE bands are supported on box

One more question.. Anyone here that has the Korean version able to tell us if it comes pre-installed with facebook? Do not want a smartphone with Facebook preinstalled that can only be disabled and not uninstalled.

how did you bring up that menu with all the bands? I have the lg h870ds model with hifi dac and 64 gig, but I can't locate the LTE bands to turn them on
Try the same but with 870 instead of 600.

Hi i new here and inglish not is my native languaje sry for you eyes hhahaha
I see the forum, i see other question unlock band 20 method but is posible unlock the band 4 (aws) lte ?
The cellphone only have aws in 3g, the cellphone support band 4lte ?
I dont want brick the new cellphone, the proce is snapdragon 430 (xiaomi 3s) actuallity global version
Thanks for you time
Had anyone who doesnt have the Global Version tried to change the LTE Band with the Snapdragon software tools? If you haven't heard or tried this just search Unlock LTE Bands in XDA main search. Because I'm think its going to be much cheaper to by the Chinese version that is like only 343USD for 6gb of RAM and 128 ROM and unlock the bands. Any thoughts? Thanks.
Changing the bands with QPST or QXDM can be done but it has no effect on functionality.
Some software will see these bands as unlocked but the phone itself can not make use of them. You might also run into some trouble on MIUI though custom roms seem more flexible with this.
At the moment there is no way to convert a CN (band restricted) model into a Global model (no band restrictions).
Hi, somebody has any news ?
for conversion(activate ) band 20 in Xiaomi Note 2 ?
thank you
This is very important topic I think. What I find really weird that the firmware files (modem) and rom are the same no matter which version you have...
On redmi note 3, kate and kenzo have different rom and different modem files. Its really weird here.
