does anyone know if its possible to unlock the lte band 20 (800Mhz) on the pe-tl10 ?
The Kirim 925 processor should be able to work with, as e.g. the mate 7 has the same processor an the lte band 20

Bands are antenna specific, means the antenna used in your phone so can't be changed.

Frequency Bands are pre-installed at the factory, and cannot be changed by the end-user.
It's a hardware limitation. No piece of software will ever be capable of fixing it.
Antennas don't match on all models

Hi XDA,
I found a website where I can check if LTE will work. However, carriers in the Netherlands use multiple band, such as band 3, 7 and 20. The GEM-702L doesn't support band 20, but it does support 3 and 7.
My question: Will LTE work on just band 3 or 7, or is band 20 necessary for LTE to work?
Thanks in advance,
Kind regards,

Its necessary only one band for LTE work. 3, 7 or 20, in this case the 702 model has 3 or 7 so can work in one of those bands.

Thank you so much. I have contacted my carrier and they said in the rural area's also the bands 3 and 7 are supported. However, when looking at the entire country, band 20 is the most used. So with bands 3 and 7 I am able to use LTE in certain area's.

I am using KPN. They actually are the one with the worst band 3 and band 7 coverage. I guess I have to look for the GEM-701L.
Does someone maybe know where to get the GEM-701L? I can't seem to find one for a good price which will ship within a few days and doesn't look like a scam.
Hello I'm French and in my country the carrier use the B1 B7 and B20 to connect to network.
But all the xiaomi not use the B20 radion
I see it's possible to unlock B20 for smartphone use Qualcom soc ?

Unfortunately you can't unlock band 20 at the moment, in fact you might not ever be able to unlock the band. So if it's crucial for you to have band 20, buy a different phone.
However, it's a really nice phone, if if you don't necessarily need the specific band, then this phone is a good buy I believe.
ok thank's a lot
@ggkameleon,
I don't have this phone (yet ) But, my Telco uses Band 20 too.
What I intend to do is use my sim for phone calls/TXT's and get a 'Pay As You Go' LTE sim for Net access.
If you see the most good chines provider don't use B20 Mezu Xiaomi Lenovo why ? And other use it but it's not the more good smartphone or huawei use it but the price are expensive. When you see the last Xiaomi Redmi 3 Redmi note 3 and now MI5 very good smartphone and not expensive.
Hi din't know what is it a 'pay as you go' ?
But if your telco use b20 you can't have 4g lte in b20 ! But if use with b20 the band b7 or b3 the phone connect to b3 or b7 if ist possible or connect to wcdma in 3g network !
But i can't know why meizu pro 5 use the same soc exynos than galaxy s6 and the galaxy s6 work in b20 ! It's not possible to unlock b20 in meizu?

He meant he'll use a second, prepaid sim to get LTE from another provider who uses a different band. Although it's been said that using the dual sim function on this phone reduces battery life quite a bit.
Yes, if you don't have the correct 4G bands, but do have the 3G or 2G bands, your phone will be fully functional, just not have the best speed possible.
It's not just a matter of having the same soc, it's a combination of soc, radio and firmware. In some phones a workaround can be found to unlock the radio, others not.

Ah ! Ok but if they are a provider don't use B20 go it ! Don't use two provider ? Ok it's not possible to unlock.
Me in my country (France) They are 4 provider Free use 2600 for 4g, but it's a new provider and they are not many radio in 4g and even less 3g I test it's not possible. Bouygues use for 4g 1800 2600 and a little 800 it's the best for chinese smartphones but where I leave there are not radio Orange use for 4g 800 2600 and in radio there are two band in city but in campaign only 800 Sfr use 800 2600 and use a lot of 800 and it's actually my provider. I speak with users of chinese phone the best are Bouygues or Orange because the one don't use many 800 and the second if don't possible to use 800 the phone go to H+ (wdcma 900) and the speed of 4g 800 it's the almost the same of H+ wcdma 900 !?
If I buy a Xiaomi or Meizu I do change my provider but the smartphone do use the 3G Wdcma 900 ! I believe do use it.
The problem now it's Xiaomi block the boot loader of the new phones ? I see the new Redmi note 3 Pro it's a more good quality but It's more complicated to change language and don't use B20 ! I'm disappointed.... I stay to see what Xiaomi make for international customers.

Ok i understand
Yes it's not a good idea to use 2 different provider one don't use b20 and one use it !
Because if you have a provider don't use b20 go for this provider Because you paid 2 provider ! It's just if you are in contract you can make this option but it's more expensive.
In France all provider use b20 ! Only one don't use but there are not enought radio.
Thank you for your message I understand it's to complicated to unlock band and it's possible to use only in 3g.
Yes, too complicated or simply not possible with the hardware. Whatever the case, 3G can be more than sufficient.. I have never done anything with my phone that required more speed than 3G.
However, the phone does have a lot of other LTE bands, be sure to double check if there's not one that matches, it was the case for me.
1(2100), 3(1800), 7(2600), 38(2600), 39(1900), 40(2300), 41(2500)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LTE_networks_in_Europe according to this, there should be enough in france that match to provide normal LTE operation.
Free Mobile is fine for Mi4c you know
I have LTE in outdoor in all Paris (indoor i'm always on wifi)
Thank you for your support and link
Actually my provider are Sfr (because I have a promotion for one year 10€ calls/sms unlimited ans 20go of data) and I do not want to break this wonderful contract
This provider use fifty/fifty FDD B20 800mhz/B7 2600mhz and UMTS B8 900mhz/B1 2100mhz
That good for Xiaomi Meizu FDD-LTD except FDD B20 800mhz
But there are a new problem with Chinese smartphones the Boatloder are lock now
I use Apple phones after Samsung with 3gs 4s and 5s but now the price of their phones are to much and not as high as the difference of Use Android phones ! It's stupid now to buy a smartphone than 800/1000$ it's not possible to my heart and my wife said go out of home if you buy it !!! Paid us a travel and buy another phones. she's right you know.
I like Xiaomi phones and I stay for the mi5......

Wat about other bands ?
i used also my Mi4c with 2 SIM cards (one private with Free operator and the second one with SFR for pro usage). No real problem with 800mhz band used by the two operators.
Ok thank you

The problem will be in a zone where the SFR antenna will deliver 4G only on the unsupported band, you will have only 3G.
That'all. So, it's up tio you to test in the main zone you are, what bands are used by SFR.

Yeah i read all that ...i was hopiing
thx tho....i can still use band 7 here LTE is doing great ...band 4 would be nice for full coverage especially inside building and metro ...
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

Just to let you know it seems that our mate 8 NXT L29 support the B28 band. Huawei made an update in february. You can see it here : http://m.huawei.com/be-frmobile/consumer/support/faqs/detail/index.htm?id=74232

Hi guys,
Has anyone been successful in enabling LTE Band 40(2300 Mhz) on Honor 6 plus PE-UL00? I believe the device supports the band as the other version PE-TL10 has it enabled.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Sorry but band 40 is not supported on your model and it cant be activated as far as I know.
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...
Click to collapse
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.

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.
