Rev. A -- For real?

Two questions
After upgrading to the latest firmware which supposedly includes Rev. A functionality, is the setting in ##pst# -> Data Parameters -> Rev. A -
Is it Disabled or Enabled? (mine is disabled, even after firmware update)
When you enter a DO area w/ Rev. A. capabilities, does Windows Mobile notify you about this?

Are you sure it says "disabled"? You better check because, i'm pretty sure it should say "disable"... Check it again and see.

Disabled means rev.a is enabled.

Disable - I read it wrong sorry.

Rev. A working with Verizon??
Is Rev. A added to the Verizon phones that have done the upgrade as well. Running DCD 3.0.1 with the Sprint Radio 3.35.
In the ##778 menu under Data Parameters it doesn't show the Rev. A line that everyone is referring to.
So I assume it didn't add the Rev. A capability since it is a Verizon phone.
GPS does work and I would like to thank everyone on the forum for all the post helping me to get to this point.
Anyone?!?

I would also like to know if it is enabled on my xv6800. I am in Phoenix and its network has been upgraded according to VZW customer support. I did a speedtest and didn't notice any improvement from rev 0.

Mine is enabled, using no2chems 5055 rom. D/l is within rev-a range, upload not so much. I wonder if enabled/disabled makes a differance, anyone have any tests ?

Well, today, I thought I would give my phone a real world test. Right now I am downloading some files to my laptop tethered to the xv6800. Download speeds have been typically around 1.0 Mbps, sometimes going up to 1.5 Mbps for a while.
I am a believer. Simply fantastic.

Ok this has beaten like a dead horse. Disable means it is enabled and selecting it will disable it and vice-versa.
Its kinda an opposite thing and by changing it you have done what it said.
We Verizon folks just wanna know why we dont have the option in the #778 menu. Is it just cuz of the cross carrier differences and can only access Sprint Rev. A, and not Verizon Rev. A.
Found this on the Titan Upgrading etc.. section:

I work in the switch and logged into the network side and see REV-A session on mine and speed tests bear it out, but the phone has no REV-A indicator. Trust me, if you have REV-A coverage where you are it is working.

Appears we may be in luck it just doesnt show we have it. Thanks madman34

Eh lots of people are posting tests with it enabled/disabled. Some people say its on, some say its off. Where is the clear cut answer. Mine isnt that far off from others and mine is "off"

Either way the speed is till slower than prior to the Rev A update.

Toggle 3g/2g

Hey guys,
I have been looking several days for an option to toggle 3g <-> 2g but it simply isn't there where it supposed to be.
After discovering this article I'm wondering why this feature is missing in all wp7 samsung devices.
I really miss this option because I get at home barely 1 bar on 3g and thats not very good for the battery.
I thought that OEMs aren't allowed to customize the os on this level but why is this option not visible ?
Regards

I always thought that this option has been disabled by my provider because "3" doesn't have 2G at all. All GSM data is transferred via Roaming with A1 mobilkom.
Don't know, I've realised that my Omnia7 doesn't have this option but I don't miss it though.

worth a ponder

My boyfriend's Trophy has the 3g toggle located in settings. He's using vodafone. My omnia however is missing the feature. HTC vs samsung or carrier difference?

According to Orange it is missing on all Omnia 7s as it's missing from the Samsung software.

Thanks for your answers but nevertheless I'd like to hear why samsung did exclude this feature on their wp7 phones because I couldn't barely find any information about it on the internet.
It's incomprehensible and there we see that samsung failed once again with "their" software. Toggle 2g is an option that I really won't miss specially in areas where I have bad signal. I'm going to contact samsung to see what they say about it.
Regards

Would be interesting to know, but don't get your hopes high...I cannot remember any time Samsung answered a support question for me

My Omnia 7 has this setting. I have a 16 GB device from T-Mobile Germany running on o2.

My Omnia 7 also has this setting (Optus stock [unlocked] 8GB version).
Settings > Mobile Network
What I LOVE about these settings is that whenever my phone tries to access the internet and 3GB/Data is turned OFF, it won't force it on. Infact, unless you have Wi-Fi turned on, it will just say it's unable to access a data connection.
More than I can say for Windows Mobile, which always turned it on no matter what you told it to do.

So it's not Samsung's idea but, more likely, our provider's idea to cut this setting.

T-Mobile service menu access... (PLEASE LOOK AT PICTURES)

So i just found out from another thread "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11088696" that we can access the tabs service menu with the the following code (*#*#197328640#*#*). Now this is a LONG shot but here it goes, for all of those with more technical knowledge than myself, would it be possible to set the tab with Voice+3G using a T-Mobile sim through this menu or no? Just wondering but i am sure i will get bashed for this.

I tried that! The menu has the choices we want, but they don't do anything. I'm sorry you got nervous to post that idea! I wish it worked. Did you try it yet?

*#2263# gets you to the frequencies. Try it, but write down what you try, and what modem and carrier you have. Good Luck.

just noticed something interesting:
this picture shows all the bands while on voice+edge using Roto's modem switch:

and this picture shows all the bands while only on 3g using Roto's modem switch:
now clearly while on 3g the is an extra band, WCDMA 1700(FDD IV) , and it does not show up while on Voice+edge does this mean anything? i wished someone with technical knowledge regarding this would chime in....
sorry for the way the pictures are layed out.

Well that confirms what we all have experienced. The modem in use that allows voice calls to be made does not have theT-Mobile 3g Bands( Band IV/ AWS/1700). The original T-mobile modem does allow 3G access but does not allow voice. How we combine the two is the challenge.

Enable VOLTE on Verizon Nexus 6

These were a couple things I had to get Advanced Calling 1.0 (VOLTE) working on my device. This is for either Lollipop or Marshmallow
Step 1 - Make sure you the feature added to your plan.
You can call Verizon and have them add the feature or you can do it yourself from logging into your account and adding it as a feature

I didn't need to enable the VOLTE provisioning flag. I didn't even need to reboot my phone, the toggle showed up in the menu shortly after I enabled the feature on my plan.

it was auto enabled on M

Just because it worked for you guys already, doesn't mean it worked for me out of the box. I actually had to do this to get mine to actually provision

Three in the UK recently started rolling out VoLTE so I'm left wondering how the option can be enabled in the UK.
The VoLTE Provisioning Flag is already showing as off but I can't see the menu in Network Settings ?

You want the provisioning to be enabled, not off..... Also, you carrier has to have it enabled on your account and it working on their network

It's free for all customers as of the beginning of September.
From the screenshots I've seen everything looks okay, guess it's not enabled on international carriers in the rom.

Thanks. Always been meaning to look up what I need to do to turn it on.... But haven't really cared enough to do it

Under cellular networks its a setting called enhanced 4g lte. That is what enables volte. *#*#4636#*#* will take you to a menu to check bands and other stuff.

WiFi calling and VoLTE both work out of the box on T-Mobile. You can download the LTE Discovery app which will tell you what band you're connected to

Enhanced 4G LTE Mode (VoLTE / HD Calling) works!

Sry. Didn't actually read. I just saw a new post and did not connect that you are the OP. Lol
Its an issue. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=64227798

I am on fi now, but the first day I had the phone I put my tmo prepaid sim in. Noticed in the APN, the setting APN type was : default,supl
On my previous t-mobile branded phones the setting has been:
APN type: default,mms,supl
Not sure if it matters or resoved any problems, but I edited mine to match.

If I am on LTE with VoLTE, I stay on LTE. If I am on HSPA+, I drop to Edge while on a call.
Not all LTE towers support VoLTE yet. Find someone else on T-Mobile with a VoLTE and see if you get HD calling. You can really hear the difference. It sounds like a Skype to Skype call.
My APN settings are the defaults for T-Mobile. You can reset them to defaults when in the APN menu from the three dots drop down.
The first one if for data and Assisted GPS (default,supl).
The second one is Wi-Fi calling (ims). Not sure if it is used by VoLTE.
The third is for MMS (mms).
