D820 and D821 modems are the same byte for byte so you don't have to worry.
Oke, thanks.
But I see in the Netherlands only G and nog 3G or 2G.

G is 2G and you probably have bad coverage

How to Set 4G LTE Mode Only

Hi guys, does anyone know how to set this phone Honour 6x to 4G LTE Mode Only. I really need it because sometimes I need to download a large file but incase of a signal drop, it switches to 3G or even 2G which is very frustrating. Any leads I'd really appreciate. Thank you in advance. Am on Official Nougat ROM.

Thanks buddy, but unfortunately, the message I get is "device not compatible" I have tried so many other apps like those with no success. I don't know if there is a root method.
I found this thread
[APP][5.0+][ROOT] Toggle Network Type 5.0 (2G, 3G, LTE) (xda-exclusive free version) but it requires root. I currently have no root on my phone, and I'd really hate to root it just for that functionality and it fails to work. Has someone here tried or could try it on his or her Honour 6X. Thank you in advance.

If you have the patience, AOSP ROMs have that feature you were looking for. I'm positive that Honor 6X will get some stable AOSP based ROMs in the near future.

I am using this widget sucessfully on my rooted Honor 6X. You have to enable "Show all network types" to allow switching to "LTE only"
. Works as it should. I cannot make calls because I cannot use VoLTE over here, but fast 4G internet without falling back to 2G/3G.
try installing Settings Database Editor from google play, run it and then edit the "hw_networkmode_preference" under system table to "9,3,2,1,11"

Did already but no changes post reboot.
Added "12" and got "3g,4g" but entering 11 does nothing
Solution
Hi,
In Settings Database Editor, find the line "hw_add_4g_only".
Change this to "250;[yourMCC]" (in my case "250;262" for Germany) and reboot.
List of MCCs: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_country_code
This worked for my honor 7x al-10 band with al-21 rom

4G is not region dependent. You can buy an unlocked phone from USA and use it anywhere and vice versa provided that your sim is 4G capable. Have you tried inserting your sim to another device?

May be its just giving the H+ symbol but you have 4G. For me i can obly notice a difference when i am not on mobile data, that time it wont show the network symbol(2g,3g,4g) but when on data it shows correctly so i would assume this is just UI.
Did you check the internet speed by downloading any app or so? Are you trying 4g in sim one or two?

So, the LTE+others option is still available? If yes, put that on and try a speedtest to see the effective speed of mobile data traffic. It's weird anyway, you had 4G before?
Please update us OP.

you can download from google and flash it by yourself

Hidden TMO Band service menu.

All the digging I have been doing working on the unlock I came accross this service menu.I have not seen it poasted anywhere yet online. I don't know if this can help yet in anyway to get sim unlock but it does let you unlock different LTE bands and many more. Try it out on stock rom. *#*#866#*#*
And it's not even a 5g model
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm very cool find!!!!!
Indeed.
Now, what can we unlock safely?

There is no 5G radio in the device. The software for it, if there was a 5G radio, is built in to Android.
