B28 band on NXT-AL10 or any dual sim version - Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any chance to get the B28 Lte band working on 64gb or 128gb chinese model by flashing the international modem firmware?
Only the 32gb international 1 sim model has this B28 band avalaible. I need the dual sim stuff and the B28 band...
In France this band will start to be used by providers from april. My provider will use principaly this band for LTE.
If anybody has an idea, i'm listening to it

no idea, wed first have to figure out of the LTE band support is hardware or software-based before we can answer this question

Yep, that's what i ment by this question... If anybody already knows if it's the same hardware for LTE support than in the L09 or not.
Hope we'll find out.

ideally, we could potentially manipulate the modem.img as to unlock any and all available bands supported by the hardware modem

That would be great... but i'm a newbie in the dev world... So i have no idea about how to process to test things...
And i'm still waiting my mate 8. Hope i'll get it next week.

Hello,
I am also interested in this subject, it would be a good solution to unlock this frequency ....

Hi ? can install chinis software on international

yep, it should work

[Q] Xiaomi MI4 FDD LTE version - LTE Bands

Hello friends,
I have an FDD-LTE MI4 and I live in Brazil.
I realized that the MI4 only works in the bands 1 and 3 of LTE, whereas in Brazil using the band 7, is there any way to unlock the other bands in MI4? I saw that this procedure is possible in other cells, but found nothing about the MI4.
I await response, and now thanks.

Pity no one has idea about this one. More xiaomi are vailable now throw sellers but it seems the LTE bands will not satisfy much countries.
I am in France and as you, if I buy I will not benefit from LTE...
I heard non-mtk models do support other bands but are locked because of licenses, don't know if true

AT&T GSM Band Missing

Hello,
I have a question maybe someone has the answer. I live in the united states and my phone carrier is AT&T. I recently purchased the Huawei Mate 7 Model # MT7-L09. Its a great phone but is missing band 17 (700mhz) This seems to be the primary band for AT&T GSM. Is it possible to add this in order to use GSM on AT&T? Rom update? Radio update?
Thanks !!

FRD-L04 - Which LTE Bands?

Hi all,
Looking at replacing my Nexus 5X with an Honor 8 from the US (FRD-L04). I split my time between the USA and Australia, and as such I need good band support in both countries.
In the USA, I use T-Mobile which looks as though it'll be fine.
In Australia, I use Telstra. They use the following frequencies:
LTE
Name Interface
B1 (2100) LTE
B3 (1800 +) LTE
B28 (700 APT) LTE
Supported LTE Protocols
Name Generation
LTE 4G
LTE-A 4G
Click to expand...

As well as:
UMTS
Name Interface
B1 (2100) UMTS
B5 (850) UMTS
Click to expand...

I am a bit confused, because in some places it indicates that the phone does not support the LTE bands in Australia. But according to the HiHonor website, it supports all but one of them.
Any guidance on this? Thanks.
I've posted there details within the forum before, but here you go.

Hmm, see here is the problem.
According to frequencycheck, L14 supports B1 and 3, but not 28 and L04 supports neither.
But yet according to Honor themselves and even BestBuy, the phone should support everything I need for both Telstra and T-Mobile (except Band 28 which is no big deal for me).
So, which is correct? I'm sure you can see my confusion.

Trust the manufacturer. Honor official site will have correct info
I can confirm FrequencyCheck is incorrect. I can also, however, say I wouldn't want a phone without band 28 in your situation. The lower frequency should have much better coverage.

Frequency bands on Chinese Vs European OP8

Hi team,
It seems OnePlus is showing different frequencies on the 5G band for phones sold in China (IN2010) and Europe (IN2013).
IN2010: Bands 41, 78 & 79
IN2013: Bands 1, 3, 7, 28, 78.
Does anyone who if a Chinese phone originally intended for IN2010 bands are flashed the international ROM IN21BA, are the other bands accessible in Europe . Other bands being, 1,3,7,28 ect.
Or is there a hardware lock?
It's technically programmed into NVRAM, but the publicly found version of QPST doesn't support this device, so I don't know of a way to modify the bands.
1,3,7,28 and 20 are 4g LTE bands in France, so Europe. It's not 5g bands
These bands are presents on the IN2010 model too

Shame, when Europe starts using band 28 on 5G, the Chinese imported phone won't support this band then.
Also i recommend compare 4G and 5G Combinations between China and Europe variant:
China: https://cacombos.com/device?model=IN2010
Europe: https://cacombos.com/device?model=IN2013

In France B28 used for 4G LTE for now but i think they will transfer it to 5G like other countries. That will be low band 5G for many countries to build coverage.

[solved] North America firmware on the Global version?

Hello,
I bought this wonderful phone (Oneplus 8T) in Europe but it doesn't work in the USA.
According to this page https://www.kimovil.com/it/frequency-checker/US/oneplus-8t my "Global" version can't receive Band 71 (660 MHz) but the "Nord America" version can do it.
Is there a way to flash the USA firmware so to have all the needed Bands or it will be an HW problem?
Thanks in advance.

I bought the European version and mine works well in America. I'm on T-Mobile. Who is your carrier?
So, you bought the EU variant or the global variant?
My carrier is T-Mobile too. And the phone works very well in some places, but not where I need.
I am waiting for a confirmation but in the house where my daughter lives the only one band is Band 71.
Murphy's law, I think.
You can convert between the different oos versions without much problem but the band support can't be changed it is configured in hw, which we can't modify.
