Hi,
Having Razr HD, German O2 Version, but installed Retail ROM (4.1.2; 98.22.16001.XT925.Retail.en.DE; Baseband: VANQUISH_U_BP_100700.250.66.01P). Having phon now for 3 days, never any LTE on Vodafone SIM... I should have coverage where I live, so something seems to be wrong... Anyone here with working LTE with Vofdafone Germany?
Thanks,
DerRider
I´ll do some testing next week with other LTE phone and other SIMS/Networks to nail down/confirm the cause
I have a RAZR HD retail (1&1 ) with same software version as yours,
vodafone (red m) LTE working fine as soon as I'm in a covered area.
your phone ist best prepared,
have a look at the contract
[SOLVED] Vodafone Ultracard LTE limitation
Problem solved. I have an Ultracard from Vodafone and only the primary card works with LTE. The hotline could have told me this, when I called them yesterday to confirm my SIM is activated for LTE... damn, what a waste of time... Solutions was so simple.
Good you found a solution.
You should post this in all the other threads where you asked for help.

Thx for the advise for a newbie Of course I will post this in the other threads (actuall I already have done this, but being new to the forum I have this 5min limit for multiple posts...)
Hi all,
I hope to find a solution to a very strange problem I face. Sometime ago I bought a Nexus 5 D821. Th process was a little bit confusing, as I ordered the phone from eglobal (a chinese merchant), and the phone was delivered from the UK. until I faced my current problems, the phone worked quite nicely, so I cannot tell anything bad yet. However, recently I got a new mobile contract, which supports LTE (Vodafone Germany), but I am not able to connect to any LTE Band here. As it turns out, my phone, which in fact is the D821 Version, does only support the US LTE Bands 25, 26 and 41. I can only suppose that something strange happend during the manufacturing process, maybe this European phone should have been sold on the US market, so they patched it or something like that.
As I'm pretty sure, first you will think, well he got a D820, so whats this guy's problem, so I add some screenshot recently taken, which come from my phone. (I will add the images, once I figure out how it works.)
My Question is, is there any way to get the Europe Bands work on my phone. I found certain threads, discussing how to enable different bands on other phone versions, e.g. enable band 3 on D820, but that is not my use case.
As I understood it correctly, my hardware should support the European bands. If there really is a hardware difference, I guess that my phone neither will work on US LTE bands.
I can only speculate, so is it possible that someone extracts a certain file out of a D821, which I can flash to my phone? I read something about qnx files, which are also used to enable other bands. I think I'm quite skilled to do some further research, if someone can point me into the right direction. E.g. where can I find the configuration of the bands, is this somewhere in /proc filesystem? My phone is rooted and I'm familiar with linux and its commands. I bet it would take ages to gather all the necessary information on my own, unfortunately I do not have the time, so I though it would be beneficial to ask here for some help.
However, I would highly appreciate your comments, suggestions and any kind of help you could provide.
Best regards,

Sorry mate, wish i could help. D820 owner here, bumping your thread.
Hi everyone,
So I'm moving to the US for a couple months this summer, and realized that I will need to buy a data plan (I've been to the US before, and my home plan abroad was pretty expensive, and not very reliable). I'm not really familiar with how bands work, and I want to make sure that whichever carrier I choose, will have the bands compatible with my phone. I have the global (Snapdragon 625) version of the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4.
I checked Verizon's website, and there, it says that my phone is not compatible with Verizon (it didn't say that it's because it's using the wrong bands, but I don't really know what else can be the problem). So my question is: which carriers can be good for my phone?

Hello,
i would just like to know if OnePlus 8 (China version) is good enough to support 4G LTE in EU, does it have all the bands required? I've read about "band 28" which it lacks and that this will be used for 5G? I don't care for 5G (yet), so my question is, will it work for everything else, is it good enough, i'm from Slovenia if that helps, i've been checking the bands, but i'm too confused to know what to think about this, those are too confusing for me, i've been checking them, but i'm just not sure, i think it should be fine, but i'm not 100% sure, so if anyone who knows this stuff can tell me, or even better, someone who has that OnePlus 8 phone can tell me, that would be great (=
Greetings
I have just ordered a CN version for use in the UK and from what i have read it lacks 1 frequency (band 32 i think) which from what i'm aware o2 in UK doesn't use .... Is this correct anyone? (Sorry if this a thread hijack)

Hi, just to be sure we're on the same page, I read that IN2010 is the international version (5 4gLTE bands support) and IN2020 is the Chinese one, which is missing one band used here in Europe.
Are you sure IN2010 is Chinese ?

Oh thx, I didn't see that one coming , so I have 2 questions : where to search for those infos (regional variants numbers I mean) and is this a software matter or a hardware matter ? (Will there be missing/China specials bands in it or it's just software)
Edit:
Are there any global version of the OnePlus 8, if so what would be its regional variant name ?

I just use google to find out a variant. The main differences are hardware related, specifically the bands of the device. There is also a chinese version of Oxygen OS which is called Hydrogen OS , but this can change easily by flashing global unlocked OxygenOS without any compromises.
Here you can learn more about the bands in each version : https://www.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/g1rm7e/oneplus_8_pro_versions_and_4glte_and_5g_nr/
Edit: I think there is not a global version bandwise. (US, Europe, India and China as far as i know )

Check this : https://www.kimovil.com/en/where-to-buy-oneplus-8-12gb-cn. It mentions band compatibility with your country's carriers.

Hi,
Thanks for all this clarification, indeed I've been kinda fooled by marketing speech...
I've bought the OnePlus 8 not on the OnePlus website but on another one, and the announce said "OnePlus International Version IN2010", I was like "cool, plus it's cheap, let's get this".
Now I understand the business behind the whole website (a French one): they buy in China, flash the global rom manually and sells it cheaper, but make a little margin on the final price. That's why they call it international, just because of the ROM!
I knew (but still wanted confirmation) about missing bands a HydrogenOS and now I fully understand the market scheme. So I'll be missing B28 band (used in France with my career for 4G LTE)and an EU-compatible charger. No big deal but I'm kinda disappointed in myself, not being able to see through marketing speech and candidly trusting attractive prices... Well, we learn as we make mistakes (and I'm not ready to forgot that one).
One last think, kil-movil had a section for the OnePlus 8 called "Global" with every bands marked as available, and the model number was still IN2010. I guess they're part of the deal, since when I clicked on "see offers" I was redirected to the website I bought it in.
Even the seller was lying as he said "compatible with every bands in France". And when people ask, he was denying it every single time
Thanks for your explanations tho, I'll be able to warn the next ones at least.

That is unfortunate. Can't you claim RMA or something?

Yup don't worry, I can return it and having all my money back but I don't think I will, my Nextbit Robin (daily driver) is dying and not having B28 4G out of 4 other antennas available isn't a big deal. I have only 50 Mo of data so I don't use 4G often. I would have been bothered by the charger but the seller claims (if it's not a lie) that he gives us an adapter. (Comments says he does, so hopefully he'll do)
Right now the only thing I have to do is getting past the disillusionment with some good music. Have you any title to recommend?
I have here listed supported 4G & 5G bands and Carrier Aggregation combinations of OnePlus 8:
China variant: https://cacombos.com/device?model=IN2010

IN2013= EU version, not global, there is no global version.
But thx for the website, it's nice to have that tool
Is it possible to activate the VoLTE service (Vodafone ITA) with IN2010?

You mean you're not getting 5G signal or you just don't have 5G infrastructure where you're at?

getting 5G signal
Ok, this might help.
Me and a friend got our Note 20 U imported version from Taiwn. It wasn't meant for our region (as Exynos is sold here) so 5G wasn't working.
We were advised by our telecom to upgrade the SIM, even then nothing.
My friend then put his sim in a Fold 2 (which was 5G made for this region) and it immediately detected SIM and 5G was working.
Switched SIM back to Note 20 U and 5G was working.
Try if possible.
