Dual frequency GPS? - OnePlus 7 Questions & Answers

Guys, just saw on devicespecifications.com that O7 (non pro) has GPS L1 + L5? Is this true? Like 10cm accuracy and working in tunnels, inside buildings.

Anyone?

Ok, but does it work well? Because mi 8 have dual frequency, but in real world, brings no beneficts. No 30cm accuracy, etc.

Any news/pointers on this? Performance would not only be a matter of the chipset supporting L1/L5 but also of the antenna gain for L1/L5.
This might be as good/better/worse than on the OnePlus 7 Pro.
Is there a publically available track e.g. on https://www.openstreetmap.org/traces?

Can a O7 owner please do a test with GPStest and confirms the accuracy and if it works on tunnels?

Anyone?

Yep it works in buildings tunnels , you should be good to go

i test gputest and we can conect to L1,L5, E1,E5a,B1

Wi-Fi (2×2 MIMO)

Hi,
can someone, please, tell me whether this smartphone has 2×2 MIMO Wi-Fi or not? I wasn't able to find it out... (there's nothing related to this on the official HTC website). You can test it by being near to the router (which supports 2×2 MIMO), opening WiFi settings and tapping the network you are connected to -> you'll see WiFi link speed. If it is 300 Mbps (2,4 GHz)/ 867 Mbps (5 GHz), it means this device supports WiFi 2×2 MIMO, otherwise (150 Mbps/433 Mbps) it does not.

I currently have Huawei Mate 9 and it's a superb phone with one fundamental flaw - it doesn't support Wi-Fi 2×2 MIMO and therefore I get much worse internet speed using Wi-Fi with Huawei Mate 9 compared to my old device (LG G5). For this reason, I'm considering selling Mate 9 and buying a new smartphone...

HTC 10 did support it and naturally U11 does as well.

Dual frequency GPS?

Does the Note 10 have dual frequency GPS?
https://www.xda-developers.com/dual...location-feature-your-phone-probably-missing/
It appears to, yes.
It does. Confirmed by the gpstest app on the link
One similar question:
Could someone please check if your Note10(+) supports Beidou?
My Exynos one does not show any Beidou satellites while the Galaxy S8 does. I thought it did in the past, but I am not sure...

Question Dual frequency GNSS GPS chip?

Does somebody know if the new S22 Ultra supports dual frequency GNSS signals from sats like GPS, Beidou and Glonass?

Yes, most new devices support multiple GNSS.
The Exynos 2200 supports GPS, GLONASS, Beidou, and Galileo.
The Snapdragon 8 supports NavIC and QZSS in addition to the above.
The S21 Ultra did so I would expect the S22 to support it too.

dual frequency is not the same as multiple GNSS !!!

"Dual" frequency implies that the device uses two GNSS bands. The truth is, most modern devices support multiple GNSS systems, which do not share the same frequencies.
If you're specifically talking about using dual frequencies for a particular GNSS implementation, such as L1 and L5 bands simultaneously, many manufacturers implemented this 2 years ago.
They wrote "dual frequency", most likely they meant "dual frequency".
As per my experience it was implemented from Exynos 9825 on (e.g. L1, L5, E1, E5a), but the half year older 9820 does not have dual frequency (e.g. only L1, E1).
So I would also agree with Iywyn.

On developper settings
@V0latyle I need ask something. Dual GNSS Chip can work in one time with A-GPS and GPS?

Why do you think so? Do you know what can be switched on there?
I just can say that my S8 also has this option in the dev settings and my S8 does not have dual frequency.
Try use the GPS TEST app and post screenshot here please.
At least here in Brazil where it ships with a Qualcom Snapdragon 888 1st gen, I can attest that the L5 band is not showing up->
For a comparison, here's what GPSTest was reporting on my 3 years old Mi 9->

Oh, I would not have expected a step backwards at Qualcomm.

Good to see DF support of the Exynos, thank you! You might do some anonymization of your picture (Shakespeare location...).
And do you know, why Glonass is not listed?
According to Snapdragon specsheet it's supported...
https://www.qualcomm.com/products/snapdragon-8-gen-1-mobile-platform
So if you can't get it meant Samsung screwed it.

Yes. That's more likely
Just got my 512GB variant from Verizon. I can confirm dual frequency. I see L5/E5 satellites in GPSTest

Poco f2 pro n28 5g band

Hello i have poco f2 pro with x55 modem. But in this modem locked all 5g bands. Works only n77, n78 sub6. Maybe posible unlock 5g band n28 700mhz like this tutorial? https://www.google.com/amp/s/mt-tech.fi/en/modify-oneplus-7-pro-5g-8-and-8-pro-nr-lte-a-band-combos/?amp Or need change x55 modem chip from another phone like mi 10t pro and solder?

3500mhz range of 1km max or even less with high speed and are very sensitive to obstacles. I did the test next to a 3500mhz the speed drops to 800m.
700mhz carries much further but with speeds often lower than 4G.
the 5g icon is displayed because you have chosen 5g network by preference even if you are on 4g. (Xiaomi ).
Given the lack of 5g antenna nearby I leave it in 4g preferred and I am in 4g+ with very good speed.
Not TELIA but

Don't bother with that, 5g 700mhz offers lower speeds than 4g 4g+.
Its only advantage is that range.

dual frequency for GPS (L1+L5) and Galileo

Hello
I'm searching a smartphone , possibly under 300 euros , which supports dual frequency for GPS
(L1+L5) and Galileo (E1+E5a) in EUROPE .
Anyone can recommend me a smartphone with this GPS feature ?
Thank you
