The followong devices have been tested on Verizon in the US:
Xiaomi 11T
Xiaomi 12 global version
Xiaomi 12X global
Working:
5G
VoLTE
SMS both sending and recieving
Phone calls both sending and recieveing
IMPORTANT:
MMS on stock Global/China ROM wont work on anything other then Verizon messages
Verizon Messages - Apps on Google Play
Stay connected using Verizon Messages on your Smartphone, tablet, and PC
play.google.com
Please install and set as the default sms app.
However MMS does not work on mobile data only wi-fi. Luckily there is a way!
Getting MMS on data:
So this gets complicated. The xiaomi phones come with the wrong APN settings. So what needs to be done is copying the APN settings of a known good rooted android.
1. Copy the telephony.db off the good verizon phone
2. Install signal spy on the xiaomi https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.novvia.fispy
3. Once thats done find out what the verizon carriee id is, it should be a next to verizon, ie. Verizon(######)
4. Now pull the xiaomi telephony.db off the device
5. Install https://sqlitebrowser.org/dl/ on a computer
6. Open up the dbs
7. Now delete in the xiaomi dbs all entries ror LTE - Verizon, delete the rows dont NULL it.
8. Almost done
9. Now in both dbs search carrier: Verizon and numeric: ######
10. From the known good db copy everything except the _id column.
11. Past the data into the xiaomi table from row 0
12. Now delete whatever rows were NOT altered.
13. Now both tables should have the same exact verizon settings except for the _id column
14. Push the telephony.db back onto the xiaomi
15. Reboot
16. Open the dialer
17. Enter *#*#4636#*#*
18. Click phone info1
19. Set prefered network type
20. Select the second to last option NR/LTE/TDCDMA....
21. Turn the radio off and on
22. Reboot
23. Open settings and select the VZWINTERNET as the APN (thank you bjs339)
24. ???
25. Profit
The xiaomi can be unrooted and the telephony.db will survive a reboot and a sim removal.
One thing of note, you may need to enable roaming and 5g for the phone to register properly.
RESETTING APN OR RESETING NETWORK WILL ERASE THIS TABLE.
Other apps will now work for text mms, but will be limited to downloads of 30kbs, uploads are unaffected.
Let me know if you need help or have any questions.
I am so sorry for my terrible spelling.
One thing to add, I couldn't send or receive group text messages with iPhone users until I set the APN. I had to actually go into the settings and select VZWINTERNET. This is on the 12x global.
Interesting, did you have to change any of the other settings or did just selecting the APN fix it for you? Also are you able to recieve mms on data only? Thank you.

Selecting it was all I did. In fact, the other settings are locked down. I think I can get mms on data or wifi if that's what you're asking. And I could message with individual iPhone users prior to making the change, just not groups.

Very odd, yeah I messed with it for hours but had to actually root the phone and adjust the APN settings to get it to work. Hmmm, maybe we have different. Ooooh, are you on the 5G plan? I'm the LTE plan.

I will try that, my other idea is your phone is magic and does not abid by the rules the rest of us follow.
Strangely it didnt work, there was a split second it did but then no. Maybe it's regional

Hello, I recently traveled and my phones LTE won't come on when its on (CDMA/LTE) auto. It only gets 3G on this setting.. Its what I'm normally on. but 4G works when I change it to LTE only but doing that doesn't get me any calls. How can I get 4G working again with LTE/CDMA auto? Thanks in advance!

Have you tried opening the dial pad and entered *#*#4636#*#* and checked your radio settings there? Mine is set to WCDMA preferred, yours should be set to LTE/CDMA/EvDo/GSM/WCDMA.

Hi,
If you had lost your IMEI you could not make calls or SMS... EDIT: ok, IMEI is fine.
Check your APN settings in Settings/More/Mobile networks/Access Point Names.

Hmm, at this point multiple things...
Is the APN selected is the one used from your carrier? If yes the settings are correct (just in case)?
Have you network coverage (how is the signal, have you a edge/2G/3G and so on icons, bars)?
What happens when you try to use the browser or whatever (an error message)?
Could you test your SIM card in another phone?
@s-essa, try to add it manually depending of your carrier (maybe call them or take a look on the web for the settings), always in Settings/More/Mobile networks/Access Point Names and click on the little cross surrounded and don't forget to save.

Yes i have bars but i have no icons saying 3g or 4g....
when i try to use the browser it just doesnt load and said that i have no internet connection.
I entered it manually. i got the details off the website for my carrier.. and i did click save.
Does it take time to activate ? So after i enter it and save it and select it... how long until my internet will start working if what i did was correct?

Hi
Did you upgrade the bootloader and modem as they recommend?
Also check your APN and see if they are correct , check with your carrier they will provide the information , in most cases if you delete them and re start the phone the carrier will send the information automatically

Hi
not sure what you mean , normally your carrier will send that information automatically , if you place a new sim the sim´s carrier will send that information.
Go settings / mobile networks / Access Points Names there you you can see what you have ask your carrier for the correct information and review them or just reset them and reboot , here is resend automatically and configure by itself
What network mode you have selected?

Ok thankz
With stock firmware, I can receive SMS sent via email. I have tried a few S7 flat custom ROMS and all prevent me from receiving SMS sent by email.
This seems to be the case also when I was still using S6. So what is it with custom ROMS that prevents receiving SMS via email?
Thanks

I never did. I just eventually found a custom ROM that did not have that issue. Forgot which one.
I am now on S8 snap dragon. If you still using S7 exynos, you might want to try Black Diamond by @Kill-Switch.

id be willing to wager that it was the APN. Many custom ROMs build in the APNs to make their ROM foolproof. Dollars to doughnuts its the APN
Is there a way to override the rom's apn? Tello (Sprint MVNO) automatically configures the network settings and doesn't allow to adjust and when I used a RedPocket GSMA (ATT MVNO) sim card, I was able to insert their apn info but still was not able to receive sms text messages.
As a workaround, I am using my Google Voice number forwarded to the phone and all texts are received as long as I have wifi or data connection. Not perfect but it's better than nothing.
BTW, I am working on an LG X Charge SP320 but posted here because of a google search and relevance to the issue in general.
Thanks for the insights and any suggestions.
Hey,
for about a month I've been having problems with calls going directly to the voicemail and not reaching me. I use 4g cause 3g has very bad connection where I live.
Now I am almost 100% sure there was a VoLTE option that I could check/uncheck in the mobile network options, but it seems it has disappeared.
Is there a way to disable VoLTE? Cause I read my problem comes from having it enabled, but now that the option is gone, I can't disable.
Phone is European version, I didn't flash anything or so, 100% stock
L09 B394
Anyone, please?

what's your access point name? have you chosen it to correct carrier? have you recently change carriers, if so that may the the problem not supporting the correct LTE bands for that carrier.

The APN I can only choose one, which is the correct one.
The carrier, there might be something about this. Recently my service provider merged with another, but I can only use one it seems. See the picture attached. Also thanks again .
Edit: When I searched for a carrier manually the first time, there was no 4G E-Plus. There was only 3g. Does this tell us something?
I use FRD-AL10,..Does it support VolTE?
Can anyone who has already upgraded a Pixel 6a to A13 tell me if the "Allow 2G" option is still available in Settings-->Networks-->SIMs ?
Some people on twitter are saying that they cannot set 2G as a "preferred" network anymore, not sure what it implies.
The option is still here yes. However, you can't set 2G as the preferred network type.
Try this..
Open Dialer
type :- *#*#4636#*#*
Click on Phone info
Select Preferred Network type & Scroll Down & select "GSM Only"
Thank you guys.
Current situation is bizarre for me. I need 2G working for voice only. My carrier is switching 3G off, and I cannot have VoLTE working (despite the corresponding option being enabled and carrier saying that it should work). Currently, when I make a phone call, the 4G data connection gets disabled and voice travels over 3G or 2G. When the phone call is over, 4G data connection gets back on. Since 3G is being switched off, if 2G suddenly became totally unavailable, I simply couldn't make phone calls anymore.

Not sure if you have tried enabling this option in the SIM settings (something to do with the Tensor Security settings as Google deem 2G to be less secure.
