Hi there, I have a new S22 ultra SM-908E but the region is for Latin America and other places in Europe. Everything works except 5G. Is there something I can do to fix this?
I look around for SM-S908E firmware with CSC TMB but there is none. I have Odin and tried different versions for the same model but no luck with 5g. I did this with an S21 ultra and 5g light up once I was able ti find the correct firmware for usa.
Thanks in advance..
There is no TMB CSC because no US carrier carries the SM-S908E. There is zero US firmware for that model.
What carrier? If T-Mobile you dont have 5G because its missing T-Mobile's 5G bands. Most specifically n71. It does support n41 on paper but I wouldnt count on that actually working.
Its also missing LTE band 71 for T-Mobile which for my area as an example mean you'd have no service while everyone around you would.

I got 4g and 4g+, when I swap phones with the s21 ultra it goes straight to 5G/UC.

Sorry to tell you but S908E doesn't have 5G mmWave. You can only use 5G DSS. USA models has mmWave.

Hi Sorry to dig up an old thread. I'm in Canada and I have the same issue with no 5G on my 908E. When you say that there's no 5G mmWave, can't it use DSS to get 5g instead? If it can shouldn't it still be able to catch 5g that way?
TIA

Same issue here. No 5G on Telus, Bell or Rogers. I double checked the bands and the S908E should be compatible.
Did you find out what the problem was? Thanks
Same here on ATT and TMobile.. on att 5g bands are 5 and 77, both supported by s908e
On TMobile the 5g bands are 41 and 71, the phone supports 41 but not 71.. obviously no mmWave, but I should still be getting "low" or "mid" 5g, but I only get 4g/lte..
I have this app "net monster" that says 5g nsa is available at my location, but unable to connect
Anyone find any solutions?

As I know T-Mobile use B2, B4 and B5 for its 4G network.
Due to the NSA type, the phone needs to get information via 4G and it looks like S908E doesn't have these Combo.
S908E for n41 Combo: B1 B3 B8 B20 (information from https://cacombos.com/device/SM-S908E )
So this may be the cause that S908E cannot get 5G access via B2 B4 B5 ?

Interesting enough when I go down to the states and roam down there, I get 5G... now I'm not sure which provider I connect to but it shows 5G on my phone... (first time it showed up I didn't even know what it was because I've never seen the icon before lol)

I think the main difference between Chinese V10 and European/US View 10 is the LTE bands. Do you know if it's possible to unlock band 20 on the Chinese version?
Can the CMDA be used on verizon?
No. No Verizon or Sprint.
Must have t-mobile or at&t correct?
Yes, and any smaller carrier that depends on their bands.

Before buying an unlocked phone to use on a US GSM network, you need to research the 4G FDD radio bands used by the carrier and make sure the phone you want supports those FDD radio bands. (Verizon users, even when Verizon abandons CDMA in 2019, you won't be able to go out and buy any phone with the correct FDD bands and that supports VoLTE to use on their network. Verizon has made it clear that it will only provision phones that it has tested and certified.) Here's a link with US and Canadian carrier bands. https://www.signalbooster.com/pages/what-are-the-cellular-frequencies-of-cell-phone-carriers-in-usa-canada

Best I can do is recommend you search this page by the carrier in India that you use, it will tell you if you'll get 2G, 3G and LTE with the Honor View 10, TD-LTE BLN-AL10. https://www.frequencycheck.com/compatibility/QePYuJz/huawei-honor-6x-dual-sim-td-lte-bln-al10/india

Look at these bands
Hi team,
It seems OnePlus is showing different frequencies on the 5G band for phones sold in China (IN2010) and Europe (IN2013).
IN2010: Bands 41, 78 & 79
IN2013: Bands 1, 3, 7, 28, 78.
Does anyone who if a Chinese phone originally intended for IN2010 bands are flashed the international ROM IN21BA, are the other bands accessible in Europe . Other bands being, 1,3,7,28 ect.
Or is there a hardware lock?
It's technically programmed into NVRAM, but the publicly found version of QPST doesn't support this device, so I don't know of a way to modify the bands.
1,3,7,28 and 20 are 4g LTE bands in France, so Europe. It's not 5g bands
These bands are presents on the IN2010 model too

Shame, when Europe starts using band 28 on 5G, the Chinese imported phone won't support this band then.
Also i recommend compare 4G and 5G Combinations between China and Europe variant:
China: https://cacombos.com/device?model=IN2010
Europe: https://cacombos.com/device?model=IN2013

In France B28 used for 4G LTE for now but i think they will transfer it to 5G like other countries. That will be low band 5G for many countries to build coverage.
I'm curious, since the iphone 12 series is in stores today, it seems that the iphone is using the X55 Qualcomm modem. If I understand correctly, that's the same modem that the Snapdragon Note 20 ultra uses? If so, how come the iphone 12 has so many 5g bands, and the Note 20 ultra is so limited by region? If it's the same modem, why the difference?
If the modems are different, then please ignore my question
What I have noticed is that using the *#272*imei# method and changing it to DSH... I get the exact same amount with the sm-986u1...

This is on the 9860 model?
I'm still curious why apple uses the same modem and has pretty much all worldwide 5g bands covered, and the 9860 has a paltry 3 bands, especially when they're the same modems

Cool, although I'm referring specifically to the 9860 model. Assuming all snapdragon units have the same X55 modem, I don't understand why they don't have the same 5g bands, when Apple has clearly shown that the modem is capable of ALL major 5g bands. Does Samsung specifically gimp the modem?

All the units do have the x55 modem and I am not sure why all the bands aren't available for roaming either. The available bands are controlled by the service mode built into the firmware, then further defined by the CSC. I know here in the US, the CSC controls more than just the 5G band availability as well. I have noticed when using t-mobile while on Verizon CSC, SA 5G won't register any service bars in the corner icon. Also band 41 5g, although enabled, won't connect. And then when using Verizon on Tmobile CSC, 5G n5 won't connect even with DSS and n5 NSA enabled.
It looks like architecture in iPhone is one worldwide firmware that just enables all bands and then available services are further changed by the carrier services from the installed Sim.
I followed this user's notes and I think this did the trick.

After going through that thread, doesn't seem like enabling all bands is possible on the 9860.
Hello,
I am looking to buy an unlocked S21+ from Samsung Canada store (SM-G996W) and I checked here :
S21+ Differences that the following 5G bands: n2, n41, n66, n71 are the ones supported by the Candian model so my question is:
Is it possible to change the supported bands? For example, if I travel to a country where the used 5G band is the n28, will the S21+ support this band. If so, how please?
Btw, I have seen some users changing Network bands on Samsung devices without root so I want to make sure that it works with the 5G bands especially from someone who have a S21+ please?
Here is the link of the short tutorial: Un/Locking LTE Bands on Samsung I am talking about.
Thanks for your help

AFAIK this 5G bands are hardware related, not software related. So no "unlocking" in this case.
I know there will be B and '0' versions like s21 ultra that are dual sim, but does anyone know if the US versions of s22 will have their esims enabled like the s21U (well, they finally were)? I hope so. Anyone know anything?
Samsung US claims the US models will have Nano + ESIM, but I trust Samsung info like I trust a politician.
A little eSim hope
If you watch this below video review carefully you can see on the box the dude has the US U1 unlocked Samsung direct versions of the phone and then when he goes into setting you can clearly see Sim Manager there

Good news
Checked the S22 out today at T-Mobile and it defiantly does support Esim

No, he's not. He promoted a scam phone, sold by a scam artist. then went on a racist rant when he was called out on it.
Droid Life confirmed with screen shot on a TMO S22 that Esim is active in USA
For all wondering, I received my ultra 22 unlocked and it has a SIM card manager, and I have set it up with SIM and esim. So yes is the answer to my original question.

You did it with the Unlocked version from Samsung right? OP was wondering if it would work the carrier variants. I'm also interested in this. Want to run dual sim, on different networks using a carrier branded version.

I am the op!
Yes, on the unlocked U version from Samsung. I have TMOB on esim and another carrier on SIM. Works same as my previous s22 which was a dual SIM. The only thing I haven't figured out is why I only see 5G and not 5G UC on TMOB, whether I get it or just dont see it.

I think you may be a little confused. There is no unlock u version from samsung. If you got it from Samsung and it's unlocked then it is the u1 version. The unlocked only means the SIM card. If you don't see the 5guc then you have the u1 version. If you were on the u version of T-Mobile's firmware then you would see the 5guc.
I am on the AT&t firmware on my s22 ultra. In the SIM card manager I don't see an option to turn my physical Sim into an esim. And the only way I can add an esm is if I have the QC code.
It am not confused! I have the U1 , that is correct. Though that doesn't answer why I would not see 'UC'. I have seen it for example on an unlocked Pixel 6 pro. Do you know for certain that no one with unlocked U1 sees UC?
With a physical dual sim model, can you use both physical sims and an esim?
mine is 1 nano +esim
Just finished setting up eSIM on the US SM-S908U1 S22 Ultra today working great better then expected.
I'm running my Sim biz card number off Xfinity mobile and activated the eSIM personal number off T-Mobile coz Xfinity don't support eSIM. Feels great to finally not have to carry around 2 phones for the first time.
lol, just replied here, to the other post about uw not being displayed. uggg....

As you can see out of those 3 Bands on TMobile the Ultra only supports one of them. Band 28. So you might never see UC. It Depends what Band TMobile is using in your area.

As you can see from the attached using BAMD SELECTOR, my U1 has 3 of the TMOB 5G bands. Which one is UC?
...also I'm getting over 500mbs speed in NYC which I assume is UC. And when I compared to a T-Mobile ultra 22 in store which showed UC ieas consistently getting the same or.faster speed in my U1.
