Lte rogers - Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi,
Just got my mate 8 al29 and try speedtest and no more than 20mb....with my note 7 samsung with speedtest I got 55-60mbp.....
I don't understant because each cellphone have band 4 and 7

Hmm yes, but does the Mate 8 explode?
The Mate 8 doesn't really have a menu to see what band is currently being used but my guess is they're on different bands.

I think because mate 8 is cat 6 and note 7 is cat 12

Hi martinjo24,
From wich country are you and what is your model ?

Rogers ,
canada..montreal
model al29

Unfortunately it seems that the only model compatible with LTE Advanced is L09 (single SIM) model.
Double SIM models (L29, AL10...) are only compatible with asian LTE-Advanced.
Your model should have both band 4 and 7 band can't agregate them. In your country your phone is cat.4.

[Q] (Q) MT7-TL10 not seeing all EU/UK bands

I wonder anybody could help with this query/issue I am have?
I recently purchased a MT7-TL10 from the United Arab Emirates whilst on holiday and the phone came preloaded with the latest international ROM (V100R001C00B119SP03). As a result I thought I had an international version of the phone.
When I got back to the UK however I have noticed that a network scan revels that the phone can see both 3 and EE LTE networks (which run over bands 3 & 7) but not O2 and Vodafone (which runs over band 20). Which initially suggests the phone is band locked as UAE only runs bands 3 & 7, though their phones are usually fully compatible with European networks (such as the Samsung S5 my wife purchased).
I don't suppose anybody has had any luck unlocking the bands on this phone or the TL09? Also, there don't seem much logic to the flash the ROM with international version in my instance (which is suggested for the Chinese model) as I am already running it.
I have similar problem in Nigeria. My TL10 could not see band 20.

Don't wait for luck. MT7-TL10 does not support band 20. Check specs.
I bought the gold Mate 7 32gb from Huawei in Saudi Arabia.. and I confirm I don't get 4G on O2. I guess I'll have to change my carrier to either EE or Three. Any recommendation, which carrier would you recommend ? I live in London

I switched to Three as they where offering the best deal plus I had a mobile dongle with them and I knew the reception was always better than O2. The phone now picks up 4G just about everywhere I go.
nice!
there got to be a way to unlock all radio bands.. right? has anyone seen it done ?
I have the same problem with my Mate 7, I've emailed Huawei but they don't want to acknowledge that there is a fault. I suggest you guys also email Huawei!
Huawei Mate 7 TL10 does not support band 20 (800 mHz frequency) that O2 uses. it is not the matter of locking and unlocking, it is that the phone lacks the capability. Sadly enough, I own mate 7 TL10 and am using giffgaff that runs on O2 network.
Edit: This lack of capability is by design. You should check the specs before buying.
I have the Mate 7 TL10 and use in Austria on Three.Three use not the Band 20 at least not in Austria.
My Prepaid Card from Telekom Austria would need band 20,but in larger cities, it also works without

On mediatek based phones, samsung galaxy s6-s7 and iphones is easy with the engineering menu or field menu....

No, because the SoC doesn't support 5G.

			
				
Mate 10 will do

I think Mate 9 and Mate 8 will not support 5G network.

mate 9 is almost 2 years old model and 2 years ago chinese operators are not supported 5g standard yet. now some of them are upgraded and newest phones like mate 10 and honor 10 will support 5g.
but I think mate 9 is still great for 4g because it has dual sim dual active option (DSDA). so you can call using first sim and second sim card will be active and data will work so if you need to be always online, this is the great solution.
anyone know mate 10 will be DSDA too or only one sim card will be active ?

Mate 9 is Only 10 months old and Not 2 years, it doesn't support full active 2 Sims as you mentioned, and the last device from huawei was the P9 with DSDA.
FUTURE devicew will not support it as well.

the last device with 2 separate gsm modules was mate 8. huawei is not producing DSDA phones anymore, all upcoming phones will be dual stand by only

I heard that asus is still producing devices with DSDA function (like zenfone 3 or smth).
huawei was great with mate 8, but this is old device already.
不支持。It won't support,because the Balong 750 only support 2G/3G/4G LTE Category 12/13.

No 5G

Since the standards for 5G have not even been finalized by the ITU yet there are NO phones yet that support it. Even Qualcomm has yet to put their 5G into any SoC yet (late 2018 supposedly) let alone that there is no network infrastructure yet in place

From what I understand the 600 Mhz is just a uhf channel (which was used for TVs back in the days) and its only advantage is that it could be used in rural areas. 5G is completely a different animal.

Are all the bands of an OnePlus 6 bought in India open for TMobile network of USA.

Is there any difference in the open bands of an Indian model OnePlus 6 and an US model OnePlus 6

Can Indian Note 7 Pro LTE Bands be modded for USA

Have been using Redmi series of phones for a while. My son plans to be in US for 13 months. Indian Note7 pro only is compatible with two LTE Bands in US that too only from T Mobile and with one LTE Band of AT&T.
https://www.kimovil.com/en/frequency-checker/US/redmi-note-7-pro is the link I used to check compatibility.
Even Mi A3 Indian version got only 2 LTE Bands, same as Note 7 pro.
Wonder if anyone knows if there are other LTE bands enabled, but not listed? Also, if there is any mod by which you can enable other LTE Bands like B2 and B4?
Any info will be really helpful.
use QXDM tool to unlock bands
