Airtel 5G not working on Nord? - OnePlus Nord Questions & Answers

I'm currently in Mumbai, India where Airtel has launched its 5G services. OnePlus Nord is on Airtel's officially supported devices list.
However my phone does not connect to Airtel 5G even though I've set Preferred Network Type to 5G/4G/3G/2G (Auto).
Is there any fix?

Samsung Note 20 ultra-SMN986U1-5G connection issue

I have bought a Samsung Note 20 ultra-SMN986U1 from USA. I work and live in Kuwait and is currently using Ooredoo 5G network. But my phone doesn't show 5G network. Few months back I searched XDA forum and through service mode, change some bandwidth setting. The phone showed 5G only when connected to Wi-Fi but as soon as I switched off the Wi-Fi, the network will change to LTE+. After the latest update no more 5G connection.
Could you guide me how can I activate 5G on my phone that shall work properly.
Appreciate your support.
Thanks & Regards,
Inayat

How To Guide How to Enable 5g on 6a for Indian carriers (Both Jio and Airtel)

I have successfully latched on to both Jio 5g and Airtel 5g using Network Signal Guru app (rooting required).
Below are the requirements.
1.
Jio sim with true 5g welcome offer and also proper 5g signals at your location (you can use speedtest.net application to know the 5g signals availability).
(OR)
AIRTEL SIM
2. Nsg app.
3. Open NSG and select respective sim and then go to Band Selection. Change the value from AUTOMATIC to NR/LTE
4. Restart
Update 1(9 Jan 2023) - Airtel has still not Whitelisted Pixel devices. So network reset(reset wifi , Bluetooth and network option in settings) is required everytime you restart your device.
Update 2 (15 Jan 2023) - Latest qpr2 beta(9 Jan 2023) build enabled 5g feature. So root is no more required.
Able to latch onto 3500Mhz at different location.
Working fine with Airtel 5g NSA as well.
Hello, I have Pixel 6a Jan updated, rooted with Jio 5G sim enabled 5G offer.
But even after following your instructions, phone refuses to connect to 5G.
@sampathkumar2811
The same sim shows 5G in iPhone 13 Pro Max at same location and speedtest gives 700-900 Mbps which means I am in a strong network area.

When we select NR/LTE, it lists all LTE bands and I select LTE_ALL (NRBand:TBD)
Reboot
Still on LTE.
Basically forcing NR Only mode by dialing *#*#4636#*#* does absolutely nothing.
Indian Pixel 6a model number: GX7AS
Under Sim, my Operator settings version is dated 2022-08-13

4636 menu won't work anything for now.
Selecting NR combo within NSG only works and you have selected properly.
Contact me on telegram so that we can check further with screen recording.

I'm too having same operator version. No issues with that.
Hey, i got operator version updated to 08/12/2022, on QPR2 BETA 2 . As i have pixel 6 unable to connect 5g, but i got option in setting 5G/LTE/3G. So i think if you update 6a to Beta, 5g might work without root.

Mine connects to 5G as I have the 5G Trial offer activated on my number. However, the 5G signal is less than half and speedtest does not go over 64kbps. Like Jio throttling my device via IMEI block or my Pixel 6a is busted with internal antenna problem. So 5G is unusable on my 6a (USA model but model number is same as Indian)
4G reception is absolutely fine.
@sampathkumar2811
My telegram is blocked because I requested too many OTPs. lol
My friend's 6A also has this issue of not connecting to n78 band. His phone connected to only 700mhz and had pathetic speeds.
My sim isnt activated yet and is not working. For Airtel on Pixel 6 it connects to 5G outside home and the maximum speed I got was 200Mbps.

Same here on US Pixel 6a model no. GX7AS which is same model number sold in India.
I hope it's just a beta issue because I purchased this for just 20k from OLX.
I loved Pixel 6a for following 2 reasons:
1. Connects at 2400 Mbps on my home wifi and so I am able to max out of my full gigabit connection. All other expensive phones like iPhone, Samsung reach 500-600 Mbps on Wifi only.
2. USB-C with 3.1 speeds.
Lot of pixel 6 users reported that 5g is working fine. If you are getting 64kbps only then raise a issue with Jio. It must be the problem with them. Certain BTS/band of Jio is having issues because they are in beta. Don't compare with other mobiles and comment here at all.

Who is comparing with other models? I spoke with Jio engineer and according to their system my Pixel 6a should be working fine with latest beta. Unfortunately it isn’t. Only connects to n28 (700Mhz) band with -110dbm signal strength with barely any data speed. Speedtest fails but web pages open excruciating slow.
I am even unable to root the latest beta. The boot.img when patched with latest magisk and flashed using fastboot does nothing.
