Is Axon 10 pro Can be Used in USA

Any one Using Axon 10 pro in USA . When I check I see missing US bands on the phone so want to know that it will work or not

it supports enough bands for LTE with AT&T/T-mobile so it should work perfectly fine in the usa

Showing 10 out of 16 LTE bands for US, not bad.

My brother brought note 9 international version and he is having so much trouble getting calls, most of the calls goes to voicemail because range issues. When i check Band 66, 71 Lte bands are missing. Is that okay?

Lyca, they use Tmobile network

I'm using an EU model with a Fi sim, works fine.

I'm using the Chinese 8/256 version and it works fine in terms of calls and data but messaging is iffy. Looks like about a third of the SMS people send me is not getting through to me. It appears T-Mobile is using several bands for texting and one or two of those are not supported by this phone. I am now looking at switching carriers but still haven't figured out which one is using all the bands this phone has.

I have imported this phone from China as well. I have the 128GB version. I am on T-MOBILE and everything works fine. There are a couple of issues with the Chinese OS shutting down Google Assistant and the Google news feed, as well as, not being able to access backups on Google, but other than those minor issues, the phone works fine.

The ZTE website for the US shows the Axon 10 Pro has more bands than the kimovil states. I'll believe the manufacturer. Therefore, purchasing the US version of the phone should allow you to use it on many carriers. I've even heard that users on Verizon could use it if they have the phone provisioned for CDMA-less service. (Verizon does this with many other phones, like the Razer Phone 2)

If your planning on using it with a tmobile mvno, the US model has full tmobile band support both 66/71 bands, wifi calling and VoLTE

Haven't tried it yet. First thing I did was unlock the bootloader, rooted with magisk. When I checked the widevine drm, shows it as L3. Won't play Netflix in HD. Someone will have to check their widevine level before unlocking bootloader to verify.

Chinese version?

Has dual SIM.
I'm tempted to buy and import to UK. However, not sure:
1) If Wifi calling works (I've seen online some short-codes to input into dialler). Anyone know if these work (specifically 3 UK)
2) Situation re. network. Obviously I'm pretty sure 4g will be OK but not sure on 5g (Currently 3 UK and Virgin UK/EE/Vodafone)
Any suggestions?

I'm using on Vodafone not the best network, LTE would be more of a problem with no band 20, 5g would be fine, I haven't been to 5g area to test other people in Europe have no problems with 5g

Xioami explained that the china modem and bands are quite different from Europe. With 4G you won't have B20 band and 5G antenna works differently (that's why in europe it's not dual sim).

I have had china version to test before the global.
5G in Italy didn't work very good in the china Mi 10 pro. I mean that the global version has a 25% more speed.

Is that even possible, or lockdown and heavy usage at the time of testing, side by side?

My Chinese version works fine on 5G in UK. Not sure about Italy but in UK we only use N78 5G band and the mi 10 Chinese version has that and several other bands so I'm not sure what you mean by a 25% difference in speed?

How to enable carrier aggregation on Note 20 Ultra?

Hi Guys,
Does anyone know how to enable carrier aggregation on unlocked Note 20 Ultra (Hong Kong version but should be the same for all other regions)?
Thanks!

Hi,
It's enabled by default, and I doubt you can disable it unless you force it to use only one band (with Activity Launcher, search for a phone activity with the word "hidden"), but even then you won't be able to turn off intra band aggregation.
You can see if your phone connects well to multiple frequencies with an app called NetMonster

Thanks a lot!
The problem is that I imported the Snapdragon version from Hong Kong and it seems (from what I read about imported S20 Ultra) it doesnt have EU specific carrier aggregation so needs to be changed via Qualcomm tools and PC.
So I wanted to know the method for Note 20 too.

We don't know Carrier Aggregation combinations what HK-version support but there is way to list these from modem log. I think HK-version have Qualcomm so SCAT-method is best: https://mt-tech.fi/en/how-to-get-4g...tions-from-your-android-phone/#Scat_(Qualcomm
What region you try use? In Europe i think Carrier Aggregation should work but in US i think it doesn't support any combinations. If you just share QMDL modem log i can list all Carrier Aggregation combinations from your device.

Actually, carrier aggregation worked out of the box, without any fancy setup. Depending on network strength it shows either 2 or 3 bands combined.
So this issue is resolved.

Yes, I live in the UK and HK version works like a dream - except 5G that doesn't work yet...
And, yes, it should not fully work in the US as the bands are different. But in the US you guys have native Snapdragon variant (1 sim though) that should do it.

So I ordered A us note 20 ultra then i read on here that these past couple of North American samsung devices Arent been able to be rooted, I didn’t know this because my last Samsung phone was a s8+ but anyway i returned it and ordered the N980 varient because im a dumbass and i have never been on a android phone without root and i have owned androids for over 8 years. I just Hope the 4g service is not bad, I already sacrificed 5g for it but i need 4g ?:crying:

I also migrated from S8 and the difference is huge.
I was also a heavy root user but stopped rooting phones as use Knox and banking apps heavily and neither works with root. TBH I didn't miss root much, we can do almost everything without rooting nowadays.

Hi Guys. Anybody can explain me why Note 20 ultra Hk version with Snapdragon Dual Sim doesn't work on 5G. I'm on UK on EE network, my brand new Note 20 Ultra just show me on the screen 4G+ speed. Is the problem with only that model on EE? Please help me. I got EE plan with 5G essential plan. Just want now is that model Sm-n9860 is compatible working on 5G in UK Networks.

Hi ALL. Thanks for sending me maps with 5G Coverage in EE UK. Looks like EE maps are different like real coverage maps with 5G range!!!
Anyway,acording that much accurate map I was check 2 places where 5G must working i Northampton UK ,and....still didnot pickup 5G on device screen. All the time is trong 4G+ only...
I got official message from Technician Team EE UK about SM-N9860,and it looks like that device on that moment is not compatible with EE 5G network .Is all good with 4G bands but not with 5G.

Thanks! I am among the first people in this forum who got SN-N9860 from Wonda, right after it was announced in HK.
The area I live in has no 5G yet so I had to travel to other places to test. The screenshot I posted was taken in Weybridge, near the high street. Three only has a tiny 5G area in Weybridge so I assume the speed and latency would be much better in London or other areas with better 5G coverage.

Carrier aggregation is not setup on the sm-n9860 to utilize the lte bands that USA use - for t-mobile anyways.
Im not sure if changing to csc bri might help for this. Probably someone from usa can confirm?
Maybe @inningsdefeat500 can confirm or not. I believe he has the same device and on T-Mobile USA.

5G on AT&T

Anyone getting a 5G signal on ATT. My ATT sim gets 5G on a Pixel 5 while my 8T gets 5G with a GoogleFi sim. But theres no 5G when I put on the 8T with ATT sim card for some reason.

What does that mean? Are you using an unlocked 8T on AT&T in the US, and you are positive you have 5G access? How do you know this? Do you have a setting that nobody else has to be able to select 5G as a default? Your statement is lacking at best.

BOZO!

In case any of you are unaware, all unlocked phones will be useless after 02/02/2022 on AT&T with the 3G shutdown.
I'm actually waiting to see the lawsuits happen...haha

Much of att "5g" is actually LTE-A (4g). They branded it "5Ge" the same way they branded their 3.5G (hsdpa+) network as "4g" when everyone else started rolling out LTE. since the 8T is not updated by att the icons won't be changed like they did with older phones that got "upgraded" to "5g" by changing icons in a software update. (I have a friend that is certain his galaxy s9 is 5g after att pushed an update)

How do I test it? Do I need a full signal to do so. Speedtest.net? What speed am I looking for.
I have a Google fi in the other sim slot and it reads 5G and would like to compare if I can get a little guidance.
Thanks

Question 5g not working on U.S variant s22 ultra

Hi,
I am currently using an u.s.a variant s22 ultra on xaa csc....I own a jio Sim card and jio 5g services are available in my city but my s22 ultra is not getting 5g connection....previously I owned an airplane Sim card and 5g was working on airtel but not on jio Sim card.
I tried unlocking all the bands using *#73# code but 5g is not working for jio sim...
I want to know is there any band lock problem for u.s.a variant that my 5g on jio is not working?

You won't get welcome offer without an Indian device, get the welcome offer by putting your sim in an Indian device for 24-48 hrs. Once you get it then try in this phone.

Are you asking if it worked or telling that this solution has worked for you.

Am asking whether it worked or not

Ok update.
I tried my sim on a mi11t. And i13 mini.
Welcome offer will get activated after confirmation messages come. But doesn't activate yet.
Then i tried an already activated 5g sim in my u1. Jio. 200mbps. So confirmation that it supports jio 5g. Just activation process we need to crack.
So i think i would need a day or 2 with the 5g phone to activate and then wait for the signal on that device. Then swap to this.
For now i don't hv another 5g device. So nothing much i can do . Except wait.
Regards
Santa

I have inserted my jio sim in my nothing phone 1 today trying the same trick to unlock the welcome offer....now lets see after 48 hours what will happen

Just a quick update my 5g has been enabled on my jio sim card by putting it in another 5g compatible device for roughly 24-36 hours....
Now using it in my s22 ultra
