Social worker w/ Tilt having trouble after flashing

After spending hours reading through the FAQ's and all on how to flash I finally took the leap and did it, flashing my AT&T Tilt to Dutty's DualTouch v3 Final.
*1* Unfortunately my usual 3G isn't working.. When I go to the Communication Manager and select (under the 3G logo) "Change to GSM mode" (to force it into 3G) it shows at the top that there is no service. Is this a radio issue? I know about radio's except **I can't find where to look on my Tilt to see what current radio it is using**..
also, There is an "H" in the upper task bar instead of the usual 3G or E (Edge). I guess this stands for HSDPA?
1.B. When I try to check my gmail account it says "Cannot connect for unknown reason".. I can't figure out why in the settings.
(Other, less important issues below, from unimportant to really unimportant)
2. How can I make it so the leading "zero" goes away in the time? (i.e. 03:00pm)
3. How can I change the date to make it "american style" (month/day/year)
4. How can I get rid of the anti-aliased look in the print?
5. how can I activate the cube look to check it out?
I guess if I can't get the email and all working I'll just switch it back to the old AT&T ROM and re-remove the bloatware
Thanks for your information and help!!

Turn of hidden proxy to get the internet working. And there is no Cube on version 3

Turn off hidden proxy?
How do I turn off the hidden proxy??
I googled that and searched the threads and couldn't find anything about turning off hidden proxies..
(New user + social worker + 2 posts = Going to require step by step in all likelihood)

Okay, Let me find the link for you

Download and install this cab
Link

4. How can I get rid of the anti-aliased look in the print?
Start/settings select screen. Goto clear type and uncheck it.

3. How can I change the date to make it "american style" (month/day/year)
Start/settings then goto system tab and select regional settings. Then goto the last tab date...You can change it there.

Hexane, I just flashed an AT&T Tilt with the same ROM. If you did the hardSPL you should be OK...to check your radio number power your phone down and restart...when it comes back on the number in red after the letter "R" is your radio number. I even flashed a ROM with a different radio number then what I had and my phone kept my old radio number...not sure if it was suppose to but it works. The H is for HSDPA which essentially is "3G"...my phone switches between showing the H and 3G, but it works either way. When you go into Comm manager, does it have the blue on button at the bottom beside 3G?

2. How can I make it so the leading "zero" goes away in the time? (i.e. 03:00pm)
settings --> System --> Regional Settings
Goto Time tab and select time style as h:mm:ss that will remove the leadin zero
3. How can I change the date to make it "american style" (month/day/year
settings --> System --> Regional Settings
Goto date tab and select the Date format in there,
5. how can I activate the cube look to check it out?
search for slither cube in xda forums and install it from there.
ask me if you don find the links

From now on if I have a question I will put the same magic words:

OP8 Says it's on 5G in the status bar, but is actually on LTE

So i was doing some speedtests to compare the 5G and LTE speeds at my house. I did this by switching the preferred network setting in settings to enable/disable 5g, and confirmed the icon in the status bar changed.
After a few tests switching 5g on and off in the network settings where the speeds were nearly identical...I checked the band the phone was using in Network Signal pro. Even though the status bar read 5g, the app confirmed I was still on LTE. I guess the tower by my house only has LTE, but the bigger issue here is that the phone never switches the indicator between 5G and LTE.
What gives? Is this normal behavior? I know it's been on 5g before, I was out somewhere else and got sweet speeds and even confirmed the band in the same app. Seems like the icon is useless if it doesn't actually tell me if it's using 5G or LTE.

Currently 5G is running in NSA ( non stand alone) meaning it has to connect to LTE to connect to 5G. Most apps will report the LTE information and not the NR information. You can use cell mapper and look for 5G State and if it says connected you're on 5G. It won't tell you what NR band your phone is on though. Only way in this phone to find out what 5G band your on is by using Network Signal Guru app (but you need root and license for it to show NR info).

I don't have any specific links. Just a lot of researching 5G lead to knowing that. I've been following 5G news and information before networks even started deploying it, so I've probably read too many articles about 5G at this point lol. An interesting thing is that all US carriers are planning on switching to stand alone 5G later this year. Once that happens, 5G will no longer have to connect with LTE as well which should fix the issue of the fake 5G icon. I will link 1 article that talks a little about the networks using NSA currently and how the 5G icon is currently set to display in Android (which can include not actually being on 5G). The one article is here. So easiest way to know for sure is cell mapper and 5G state: connected or get the beta version of Network Signal Guru (although you have to be rooted for that app).

Very interesting...the fun of being an early adopter. Thanks for the answer!

I have the tmo op 8 was pretty fast then tmo added two more bands and the speed is really good now. I read that they are going to have 5G LTE which will be even faster.

Themes / Apps / Mods *Guide* Moto G Stylus 2021 XT2115 Boost Mobile LTE Data fix

Have you noticed that your data doesnt always work in areas that you get almost perfect signal? Well this guide will help.
Get your dialer open. were gonna us a ussd code!
dial *#*#3282#*#*
(you should get this screen)

}
next you want to tap on LTE button and the next screen will occur
first we will tap on VIEW
make sure you know your MSL code for a later step
(BOOST Mobile normally has aa code of 000000 for their device for easy programming)
(View Screen)
the next step you tap on "Bands Priority" and get ready to change some values.
your values for each band should look like this below (tested on 2 devices and no issues so far)
thats it for that part of our journey. now we have to enable other band functions in the LTE Edit menu.
close that window and start another instance of the ussd code we used earlier and this time when we tap on LTE also tap on Edit (not view).
the next screen should look just like this
now type in your msl code
*again if you have boost mobile it will more than likely be 000000*
000000
the next screen you want to have has a bunch of Upload and Download enablers. Next 2 pictures.
you will want everything enabled that i have above. (pretty much all but 2)
the 2 left not enabled are
CA DL 26A-41A Enabled = off
and
CA DL 38C Enabled = off
they do not stay on for long if you turn them on.
Finally use this USSD dialer code
*#*#4636#*#*
then tap on Phone Information
next you will get the screen below and we aer going to change 1 thing
tap on "Set Preferred Network Type"
you will want to change the type to LTE/CDMA/EvDo/GSM/WCDMA(PRL)
afte that your finale step is to restart your device. and Voila you should have better data speed by up to 100mbps+/- a second.
Enjoy

Why does this work, and would it also work the same for the boost 5g model?
EDIT: I also want to add, it's probably a good idea to take a screenshot of your existing values before changing them if you need to switch them back.

It works because it puts that natural bands for boost mobile in the order to receive and send data first. They are off with a 0 by default. Which I thought was weird . I only added bands 25,26 and 41 to the queue operating first to capture packets from a native source tower. The UL and DL options enable those frequencies to use the signal sent and received. I enabled all I could by default so I can capture more packets over the network with more possible instances.
As for if it will work on the 5g. I am going to test that tonight and will post in the 5g forum. I do not know because I haven't had much experience besides reading at the moment.

I did the changes on my 5G, service still works, however no noticeable difference in coverage or speed, I did have to set a few to 0 that were enabled before

I probably wouldn't have done that because they're are 5g bands that were enabled like 71 and 12. Try adding the missing bands into the queue gradually and watching for cell tower switchover in phone information. So I would suggest a revert and slowly test each feature/band that you change. Don't go full out because it may cause a conflict with 5g capabilities.
Here is the original band queue for the 5g variant boost mobile. (So you got em in case)
Band 1 is marked as 0.
If you do decide to run with this then let me know how your testing goes and get over to the moto g stylus 5g forum and post there. Wouldn't mind the help testing on 5g as I only have 1 right now. DM/PM me with updates if you can.

Question Android 12 Disable 5G

Is it possible to disable 5G on the Galaxy S21+ on Android 12 & One UI 4.0? I've searched through the Android 11 method of Settings>Connections>Mobile Networks> Network Mode but apparently that has been removed all together. I couldn't find it in Dev Options either.
Could it be hidden somewhere else?
Does anyone know the ADB command?

To anyone else wondering how to do this, I ended up using an app called Samsung Band Selection to remove the use of the 5G band.

@USAMac , I have used the Samsung Band selector for some other purpose, can you detail how to remove the use of the 5G Band.
Would appreciate your time.

Happy to help. I used Samsung Band Selection straight from the Play Store. Once opened, 'Launch Band Selection'

Weird...my T-Mobile S21+ with Android 12 has this option. Settings -> Connections -> Mobile Networks -> Network Mode -> "LTE/3G/2G (auto connect)"
I have to use this a lot cause 5G around here isn't that great in some places.

I wanted to share with you that I ended up switching my connection type to GSM/WCDMA/LTE because in my area, even LTE is not always present. I've personally found this to be a lot more flexible in service and took away the occasional G I would see next to my signal bars. Hope this helps!

I'm also experiencing the same thing, does anyone know a solution?

I was referring to the removal of Network Mode

There's another app called Network Mode Samsung that gives greater details on what the bands mean:
GSM ALL -> 2G GSM only (GPRS/EDGE)
WCDMA ALL -> 3G WCDMA only (UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA/HSPA/HSPA+)
LTE ALL -> 4G LTE only
GSM/WCDMA -> 2G / 3G only
WCDMA/LTE -> 3G / 4G LTE only
Band Selection Mode -> Manually choose 2G/3G/4G Bands
I intentionally ordered a 4G model, but they sent me a 5G model samsung flagship. It isn't what I ordered. However, what happened was I thought I was using a safe 4G phone but after holding it a minute or two I started getting this splitting headache, and I don't get headaches. Then I looked at the About phone section and discovered they sent me a 5G model! That's not a placebo effect folks. I didn't know I was using a 5G phone until AFTER I got the symptoms - headache, fatigue, foggy brain, head pressure. All symptoms of 5G radiation. I never had any of these symptoms before.
Well this phone is going back immediately. But I did take the opportunity to test the app listed.
I installed the Samsung Band Selector app and it does allow to switch the bands. However, I'm not sure if it actually does disable 5G, I was trying to figure out a way. I didn't add in a sim card, so Signal Spy didn't work. Maybe I'll add a sim card just to check it.
But anytime I took off airplane mode the headache gets worse, in fact I am keeping this phone away from me, I don't want the 5G phone anywhere near me, I'm waiting on a return label.

Question Dev Option "Mobile Data Always Active" No Longer Functional

I have an ATT branded S21+ and have an issue I am trying to solve around always keeping my mobile data on. I connect to a couple of devices around the house, in the truck, and on the boat that are "wifi" devices. (For instance, on my boat, I have a WIFI transducer that sends sonar data to my phone for depth and temperature) Problem I am having is while I am connected to these sources, which do not have internet service, my phone refuses to use mobile data. I used to be able to toggle the "mobile data always active" function in dev options to correct, but it no longer seems to function. Anyone have a workaround?
S21+, A12, One 4.1, and just to see if it would correct the problem, I recently moved over to the U1 firmware. The problem still exists, but at least I don't have the ATT bloatware anymore.

go to settings > software information > tap Build number 7x or 10x idk...
Go back to Settings > scroll down and find Developer Options > search Mobile Data Always Active

That's what I was saying in the title of the post. The Dev Option is checked on, but it does not do anything and mobile data is not connected simultaneously. In past firmware (pre A12), when you toggle that on, the "5G" symbol shows up in between the Wifi and Signal Strength meter.

Nobody has run into this?

I have the same problem. Found settings under connections, mobile only apps, but it seems to do nothing.

There has to be a developer who can fix this. Willing to donate if so!

The weird thing is, I used that option to test this as well, and with the dev toggle mobile data always active OFF it does work for some reason....
My Chrome using whatismyip shows a Vodafone IP correctly..

I don't even have a "Mobile Data Only Apps" option to select. I know where it's supposed to be, it's just not there. On Samsung A12 U1 firmware.

I have my phone set in Dutch language but the general idea is the same. Here's my menu and software version. It's unrooted stock latest software with Knox intact but with Samkey edited CSC as this is/was a carrier locked phone which I changed to a different carrier CSC.

Same issue here on my Note20 Ultra.
Did you find any workaround to have both connections active in the status bar?

Hi, I have the same issue with my Redmi Note 9 Pro with MIUI 12.5.7.
I have the "Mobile Data Always Active" option activated and it isn't working, when connected to Wifi the mobile data isn't connected...
Anyone knows a fix for this?
Or there is any app that can be a workaround?

Same here with s21 plus on Verizon, I used to have both 5G and wifi on, after the last update the 5g icon disappeared while im on wifi. The problem is everytime I leave a wifi area the phone takes forever to switch back to mobile network and I have to restart the phone.

Same here, I used to use this a lot using my phone with a wifi obd scanner, the scanner obviously doesn't connect to internet so having cell data with the wifi connection was great to be able to read codes for vehicles, it's been about a year or 2 since it quit working for me on anything android 11 and up

Same issue here on my Galaxy Tab A7. The intelligent Wi-Fi doesn’t even work. There is this app Speedify that works for free up to 2gb. It does channel bonding via a VPN but I would like for the basic features built into my OS to work also
