Hey all,
Wondering if the sprint version of Note5 work properly on virgin mobile?
Just purchased a Sprint version of a note5 and I can do everything, but cannot work on virgin LTE, no network at all.
I can make calls, and receive calls, but no network.
Just came back from purchasing a new SIM card, but still no network. I put the SIM card in my Nexus5 and it works properly, full LTE
I did check the mobile settings, everything looks okay in there. I added a Bell APN, but still nothing.
This is an Android 7.0, Baseband version N920PVPU3DQC5
Regards

Hi all, has anyone here tried or been successful in getting the data or lte over voice calls with Verizon's S6 using Tmobile? I have Tmobile and trying to use my gf's unlocked Verizon Galaxy S6. Almost everything works fine except that while on voice call, the signal drops to 1x and I can not simultaneously use data or receive mms. Are there any fixes for this? Any help would be appreciated as she is planning to switch from Verizon to Tmobile and I would love to just reuse the phone on Tmobile.
PS: Sorry not sure if this should be in a carrier specific thread. If so, not sure which one to choose since it sort of dual carrier concern

Try going to Settings > Mobile Networks > Network Mode and change it to LTE / GSM / UMTS and see if that helps.
So I had a boost phone that recently broke. It had a sprint sim card. My mom got a new phone and gave me her S6 SM-g920a. I had to go online to get it unlocked. Upon unlocking it and it not working I called att. They told me it wasn't compatible. Ok.. So then I read on xda if you root it there's a way you can unlock it for my sim. Cool. Problem is my computer fried the other week. No oden no flashing nothing. My questions - Is it true rooting it will really make the sim compatible? And can you root this phone using no oden or even computer?
Thanks in advance
Not really.
The S6 SM-G920A is an AT&T phone (the A at the end of the model indicates AT&T model) so it uses GSM technology and can work with only a GSM SIM card.
Boost and Sprint are both CDMA networks, this means they use CDMA technology.
So, your phone, previously from AT&T, recognizes only GSM bands. Whereas Boost and Sprint use other bandwidths.
Check your phones and networks bads here and see if they really are compatible: https://www.frequencycheck.com/carriers/at-t-united-states
If their not, then you could use this phone only with GSM networks, such as AT&T, T-Mobile, Cricket, MetroPCS
Well that's just disappointing. Thank you very much for your help though
Hi, I bought the Samsung S8 US Unlocked version from Bestbuy in US. I recently moved to India and when I tried Airtel or Jio Sim, I dont get the network and not able to place voice calls. However when I goto Network selection am able to see the right network selected (respectively for whick network's sim I used).
Can I use an US Unlocked S8 in India? If so, how to make it work. Am stuck, please help!!
Edit: 4g LTE is working, but not the calls. If I have the sim put in another phone, able to make calls. Not sure whats wrong in S8 with placing the calls when 4G LTE is working??
No wifi calling option on S10E (SM-G970U1)
Model: SM-G970U1
Andriod 10: one UI: 2.1
G970U1UEU4DTF3
Using MVNO ATT SIM.
No wifi calling option to turn off/on in the dialer app, no VoLTE. MVNO said I am confirmed to enable both options though.
Is this an ATT sim restriction for unlocked/non ATT devices? I did plug in my wife's att sim card and was able to get LTE+ but no wifi-calling. This isn't a branded ATT S10E.

I have an Unlocked S10e (U1) and the only way that I could get those AT&T features was to flash the "U" firmware AND the AT&T User Data file that has all of that crappy bloatware. I also used my old AT&T SIM card that had been in AT&T's system for years on previous phones. I had to do the same thing with my Note10+ too.
Another S10e that I have is still on U1 firmware & I just popped in a T-Mo SIM with no problems. Wifi calling etc. Work except I needed to download a visual voicemail app. Otherwise working great.
AT&T makes it so difficult!
It was a must for me because I have poor AT&T service where I live & need wifi calling.

Thank you, that is what I expected from ATT. I will switch to verizon MVNO. I don't want to have an unlocked phone, only to be forced to install carrier bloat.
Hi,
I use my international variant S7(sm-g930f) on the ATT network, and they notified me that my phone will not work on their network in February 2022 because they are shutting down 3g in my area. They say my phone will not work on hd voice.
Two things I notice is that my phone does have 4g lte, and the ATT variant S7(SM-G930A) will still work.
Is it possible to make my phone still work on their network by installing ATT variant firmware?
Thanks
