NO GSM signal - Xiaomi Mi 4i

Hi,
using the Xiaomi Mi 4i I have some issue with the GSM signal (no signal at all; the sim card is correctly read by the phone so I don't think it is a matter of internal sim slot contact).
I'm moving my attention to the antenna but... which is the GSM antenna?

That does not seem to be a Mi 4i. It is a Mi 4... both are totally different from each other. Please check in Mi4 forums.

[Q] Xiaomi Redmi Note - Can I unlock the WCDMA band frequency?

Hi, I bought a xiaomi redmi note from china and I didn't realise that I'd bought the chinese TD-SCDMA version, the UK network frequency works on WCDMA. The seller gave me a full refund but didnt take the phones back so I'm trying to see if this can work or else iI'm just going to sell them.
Now the network does work but can only got up to 2G.
I've heard that the MediTek hardware supports both TD-SCDMA and WCDMA however the WCDMA may have been locked.
Is there any way of unlocking it?
Hi, I am in the same boat too... please share if you find out.
Thanks

Have you made sure you have the APN set up correctly??
Also check the Mi4 supports the 3G frequency that your network runs on.

That's strange, I didin't have to select any option at all. It worked on O2 network in UK straight out of the box after I set the APN.
I can post a screenshot of my network settings soon if you want, my Mi4 is charging at the moment.
I dnt know what the problem is please help me.

Try another providers SIM card.
Edit: Just read you already did that.
Sent from my Xperia Neo V using xda premium
Hmmm, try this;
Settings > Mobile Networks > [Change to 3G/2G]
Just to see if it'll work in the phone, seeing as the SIM works, maybe it's the phone.
Then try;
Settings > About Phone > "Tap" Internal Memory 5 Times > Phone Information > [Change Preferred Network] (Reboot)
Let me know if these things work, also let me know your provider and if you setup your APN info correct.
Thanks!

3g not working on xiaomi mi4
Hi .
I am facing the same issue . When i try to change preffered network type as wcdma in phone information and reboot it automatically changes to default one. Rest all settings are fine . Please help.
Thanks
Rishab
You don't need to reboot, just save the settings. AFAIK.
Hi,
I tried to save it. but how to save it. there is just option of selecting preferred network type as WCDMA preffered in Phone Information but it does not get saved. And in the mobile network setting i have already selected preffered network type as 3g. but it doesnt work.
Please suggest. thanks
Rishab
Just select the option and back out of the menu. Seems to work for me.
Screenshot?
Also, what carrier and plan?
probem
there are more versions of 3g ... there is a 3g china and than 3g unicom that should be identical with the 3g in europe ...
also there are 2 versions of LTE too ... am afraid you picked the wrong package there mate :/
google it that kind of 3g technology you use !!! and what is supported in your country
EDIT >>> .... Look for the Mi4 WCDMA version for Europe and at all costs avoid the TD-LTE/SCDMA ....

Hello
Why Poco F2 pro have only activate 1 SIM for 5G?

I only want to be able to make calls on Sim 2 and Internet on SIM 1 with 5G...
can't the Sapdragon 865?
does this come with a later update?
it works now on the Poco F1 ... Sim 1 with 4G and Sim 2 without or with 4G at the same time.
Kind regards

Poco said they will give update to fix this but no fix yet
Not a fix cause it's not a bug.
It's in the specifications from the beginning, and inside the manual (first pages).
They will provide a update but maybe not...
As we all bought the phone knowing that, they don't have to speed up to provide a 'fix'

They will but they didn't give ETA.
Here the exact sentence in the poco Manual :
"subsequent software upgrades will include support for primary 5G and secondary 4G/3G/2G card mode function in dual-card situations"
This means they can do it tomorrow or next year..., so we just have to wait...

Dual Sim 5g

Hi All, I have searched and can't find an answer.
I bought a Poco F2 Pro as it was advertised as dual sim and 5g, now I have a 5g enabled sim I thought great! but I cant use 5g and dual sim at the same time........... not great.
Is this a hardware limitation or software? thanks

well thats rather naughty isnt it!! I always liked Xiaomi on my second phone but this will make me think twice about buying their products now!
In the instruction manual it is also written that with an update they would have added the dualsim with a sim in 5G but have not yet done so after a year. It's a shame, I will never buy a Xiaomi smartphone again!

I have emailed Xiaomi UK and asked them, I don't hold out any hope for an actual response passed the one I have already that says they are waiting to hear back from that department.

I think Xiaomi has abandoned our smartphone ...
The Poco F2 Pro has great potential but is very limited, even the 5G bands are limited compared to new cheap smartphones such as the Poco F3.
Too bad it is not possible to unlock the modem ...

hy on weekly EU, you can use 5G on SIM 1 and activate SIM 2 with option 4G (LTE) by using VoLTE with SIM 1to switch automatly to 4G SIM2 at the same time.

I read it but I didn't get it well enough. 5G is used for only one SIM as far as I understand. I am asking that if SIM 1 is empy, can I use SIM 2 for 5G connection?

I have two sims in the Poco F2 Pro and I am using xiaomi.eu
I use the second sim for data and the second sim gives me 5G among the preferred networks while the first sim does not.
So I think 5G is usable among the preferred networks based on which sim you use for the data.

Network Issue on Mi Mix 2S

Hi everyone. I bought a 2nd hand Mi Mix 2S from China and it is in Global Rom. The problem was the network provider connection was too weak. I already changed ROMs to PE, MIUI EU and LineageOS but the network issue is still unresolved. Do we have a fix on this? I can't find any in the internet. I already tried the *#*#3646#*#* and changed the prefered network connection. Any solution or help on this matter? Thank you guys
