Unlocked V35 and Band 71 (600 Mhz) - LG V35 Questions & Answers

Does the Unlocked V35 include band 71 for t-mobile? I have done a search and the results are not conclusive. I know--or think--it is enabled for T-mobile wifi calling. But I do not know much else.

Yes, it does have band 71 (600Mhz).
In the dialer put in (277634#*#). It should show the band 71.

Thanks very much. I am trying to decide between the V35 (unlocked) and V40. This info helps.

The phone is compatible, however the carrier may not allow it.
T mobile for example only allows band 71, wifi calling and volte on their phones.
In other words: in addition to the right hardware support you need to have the right modem software and rom

I am using unlocked V35 on T-Mobile and it has Band 71, Wi-Fi Calling and VoLTE. Works well for me.

Has anyone know of a way to see what bands are enabled and or a way to disable some bands?
I use a signal booster when in bfe. And some times phone wants to switch to bands booster don't suport. Like 30 and 66 .

Do you mean you're using a carrier unlock version (LMV350AWM) on TMOB?

Do you happen to know whether the carrier unlocked LMV350AWM will work with either a Project Fi or T-Mobile? I’ve search quite a bit but no seems to verify that it can.

I'm not certain but I've read on XDA that if you have an unlocked LMV350AWM, then you can flash the same code that runs on a LMV350ULM and using on T-Mobile or Google Fi.

Sorry to dig this up but how do you know for certain that you are able to use band 71? Have you downloaded a 3rd party and can see a band 71 signal with your v35?

All of the bands on my ULM phone are enabled, screenshots are included. Wi-Fi Calling and VoLTE works. I cannot show you a screenshot from LTE Discovery of Band 71, since it is not enabled in the Philadelphia metro area, yet. A couple of months ago, I did see it pop up on my phone when I was traveling through the Miami metro area.

I bought an AT&T unlocked v35 and am wondering how to turn on Wi-Fi Calling. Did you have to do any steps to get your phone to work well on TMobile?

The later builds of the v350 awm firmware seem to work with tmobile WiFi calling and early ones, no. The certain fix is to flash your awm with ulm firmware and wifi calling works.

That doesnt work for me for some reason. Is there another code? I'm having an issue where calls are not coming through. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, I can always dial out though. Any ideas?

You have to use an LG dialer, not the Google's dialer.

Is Indian Edge+ (SM-G928G) compatible with major Canadian carriers?

I would be moving to Vancouver in 2-3 months, so wanted to know if I can pop-in a GSM sim (of one of the good carriers over there) in the the unlocked version of Edge+ available in India (SM-G928G). Which all bands it supports, any idea?
Thanks

I wouldn't be so sure. Check the band it supports for 4G. Usually Indian and Canadian carriers use different bands, so a 4G device capable in India might not work with 4G of Canadian carrier. Other than that, phone should work without a problem. If the 4G spectrum is not supported, your data would be limited to 3G.
Check what all bands are supported in your model, you can see it here I guess. Also, check here for the LTE spectrum used by different carriers in different countries.
Hope that helps!

Try pressing *#*#4636#*#*
Once you're at the Test Menu, select Device Information-> Set preferred Network Type -> LTE/GSM auto (PRL). This is how I change my network type on AT&T. If your network/device is compatible with LTE, you should see LTE symbol below 4G symbol on notification bar.

Ofcourse. It's not a lot, you could have just tried once before asking again!
Usually samsung's service command codes start with *#*# and ends with #*#*

Checked it, Telus and Rogers both work at Band 4 for LTE, and SM-G928G has it, so I guess there shouldn't be any problem.

In my AT&T model, it works. And I believe it should work just fine for any other model as well as long as its S6 Edge+. Not really sure why it's not working for you. You just need to press #*#*4636*#*# quickly in the native dialer and that should open up the menu. You do not even need to click on dial button to make a call. You can search for your carrier specific model's service menu codes in google.

Using unlocked v20 on AT&T

Hi guys.
Will I have any band issues if I get the phone unlocked from LG?
Does it have all of the LTE bands for AT&T?
What about getting a t mobile V20 and using it on AT&T?
Thank you.
Probably. I am using a verizon v20 on my tmo sim and it never gets LTE. Just H+. Its a crap phone in that regard.

The unlocked V20 (US996) will work on ATT, even though it does not have ALL the bands. I have one on ATT right now and don't have any issues. The missing bands are for newer frequencies being added to support capacity. I live in a metropolitan area so I have good base support. Check this link for details. https://www.frequencycheck.com/models/AzWoD/lg-us996-v20-lte-a

To each his/her own. Reading papashex's words is what finally convinced me to get this particular version.
It has the same bands as my S4. US996 is missing Band 33 I believe, well so is my S4. I think I'll be fine.

Carrier compatibility.

Hello! My question I've nexus 6p 32gb Unlocked purchased from New Jersey.. But I'll be using it in India. So will it be compatible with all the carriers present here?
Thanks!

Okk..thanks...Got my Jio sim...Signal looks solid...for the first few minutes... but then it started fluctuating very much .. maybe changing bands every now and then coz jio operates on 3 bands 3,5and40. But as 40 is not present in American model, it switches between band 3(1800) and 5(850)very frequently...I got to know this from an app... So should I lock the band on 3/5 any of them(from network signal guru app) ? Will it stop fluctuating then?
Thanks!

Thanks... There are few issues I'm facing.... Got two more Sims voda and bsnl ... Voda gives no signal as soon as I insert it and bsnl is working well but most of the times I cannot place/get calls.... And according to that link these two are fully compatible with American model..:crying:
I've noticed in bsnl that as soon as I toggle the mobile data ON, then I can get/make calls but as soon as I put if Off, again problem starts.

TMobile

Curious.... What are people going to do if they get the phone on TMobile and it has no volte? Essential won't tell us so who knows
I thought this was already stated that it would work with all carriers including Tmobile
Yes but that doesn't mean it will support volte, HD or evs
I’m pretty sure it was asked directly if the phone would work with those features and they said if the service supports it then it will work as intended. The only questionable thing was some sprint uses which I forget what it was.
well, my Mi Note 2 supports VoLTE so I have no reason to think that this device will not work accordingly.

Yes on TMobile USA. Also, if I'm not mistaken, it's already certified on T-Mobile, just not Verizon.
Only Verizon certification is not complete. At least from the information I have.
I have the phone on T-Mobile and it supports Wi-fi calling, HD Voice, and VoLTE out of the box.

For wi-fi calling I just went to an area with wi-fi but no cell signal and confirmed I was able to make a call with it turned on. For VoLTE I just checked that the data didn't drop to 3G or EDGE when I made a call. And for HD Voice I just called another T-Mobile phone and it'll say "HD" next to the call timer if it's an HD Voice call.
Wifi calling turned on today on my phone after not working the past 3 days.

I understand it picks up LTE bands 2, 4, and 12, and that's all T-mobile uses (I think). But, our X Compact doesn't support VoLTE, so your phone will switch off 4G to use older networks to make phone calls. It also doesn't support wifi calling. Other than that, you're good to go.
