Can anyone point me to which file I need to query with SCP or CellMapper to directly get the EARFCN values? /dev/smd11 is the default, but seemingly incorrect.

Sorry very late answer but update last Android 7.0 and band reading working with API 4.2.
If you like use Qualcomm method your phone is rooted?
My phone is indeed rooted.
Are you saying that in Android 7.0, API 4.2 provides the information I'm asking about without needing to read that modem file?

Yes, on Android 7.0+ on Android Cell ID API 4.2+ included band information. Also depends manufacture and phone model how it implement to phone. Maybe not working customs roms, Samsung, Huawei and Xiaomi phones.
This is the Nexus 6 forum, so I'm likely using a Nexus 6.
I have since moved to 7.x and the band information is available.

I wanted to ask if it is possible to flash custom android ROMs in nokia lumia 625, becuase I saw android-marshmallow60.net/tutorial/upgrade-update-nokia-lumia-625/ to be showing to install Android 6.0 on nokia phone and fullandroid.org/nokia-lumia-625/ to be showing screenshot of working andoid ROMs. Please guide me the steps to install custom Android ROMs.
What you see was spam for sure.

Yes - someone would have to do lots of work, especially on drivers. Never said it was easy but it has already been done for mac's with hackintosh, so it's not impossible.
Windows Phone Internals 2.3 is released, now it is possible to install any custom rom on any lumia phone so very soon android roms will be available. Good luck.
Hi guys!
I hope you all are well.
I git my P20 Pro and I would like to install a stock android version on it.
I am completely new in this area - I am an iOS switcher
I found already some tutorials but all of them say I would like to need a SD card etc..
Details:
Model: CLT-L29
Build Number: CLT-L29 8.1.0.107(C432)
EMUI Version: 8.1.0
Android Version: 8.1.0
Can you help me?
Not possible at this point, nor would you want to install stock android on this phone. I imagine most people bought this device because of the camera and installing stock android would completely destroy camera performance. Switch back to your old iPhone 6 because that would have better cameta performance than a P20 on stock android.

There are Project Treble (Stock 8.1, see here) ROMs that do work on our device, and with Project Treble comes also support for the hardware of the P20 Pro camera just that uses different software which in some cases (personal preference) works better as it uses less aggressive post processing.
Further to the above, I have tried the Project Treble ROMs (which do boot and successfully function) on our device however at the moment it comes with random rebooting every 10 minutes or so - so steer clear of it for now until this is fixed.
If you want to prepare for when these ROMs fully function - then I suggest that you unlock your bootloader (to do this, email Huawei Support with your IMEI number, Serial Number, Product ID and also the reason for unlock request - I suggest saying 'Development'. Bare in mind that this process may void your official Huawei warranty dependent on the trading regulation authority for your region ) and once you receive the unlock code then you can unlock via fastboot commands which will allow you to make device modifications such as installing ROMs or rooting your device.
Hope this helps
Stupid question, but what are the odds of booting up and running old android versions(4.4-6.0.1) on our device?
So you might ask, why did this come into my mind? Not much really, I want to run old games, games that don't work on Android Nougat and above.
So edit 1: a quick Google search revealed a MIUi rom based on Android Version 6.0.1 is actually available for santoni. New question is, will I be able to dual boot a Oreo rom (as primary) and the aforementioned ROM above this question? If I'm not mistaken MIUi uses a different file format for system compared to other ROMS is that correct?

I think you can do by using dual boot patcher
TL;DR: I wanted to install an Android 9 Rom on my phone alongside the stock Android 10 Rom in order to use GLTools.
So, the question is basically on the title. But the reason that I want to install two Roms on my phone is GLTools. Since GLTools' developer didn't release an Android 10 compatible version of his app while it was under development, Thus can't use it, since my phone is on the latest firmware. Now, I mainly wanted to play Fortnite on my phone (Please don't judge me?). I'm open to other solutions tho, like any GLTools alternative compatible with Android 10. (Ps. Phone is rooted with Magisk)
AFAIK, Dual boot custom ROMs were possible on some devices but that was before introduction of SAR A/B Devices. While theoretically, newer devices have separate A/B partitions and hence could have separate ROMs I believe it is an issue of shared libraries/partitions being used by the device which might mess up things.
But then I am neither a developer nor a gamer so the entire theory could be wrong !

So, to be short, All I needed to do was install Havoc OS and now the game is installing. No idea why, but, It works!

In stock 10 rom?
How can you find out what version of the phone you have? I purchased a used Google brand (or so I thought) P5 this spring and I thought I flashed the Feb 21 A11 RQ1"A".210205.004 build (certain I did because that's the build I have downloaded). I did this before I ever installed my Verizon SIM card. I have been struggling with connectivity issues for a while now, and another XDA member suggested that I reflash the radios from that build. Sounds like a good idea, but when I just looked at the build number on the phone its a RQ1"D" build number. I never downloaded that version, so three questions:
1, Could the phone change the build number when I installed the Verizon SIM card? If so, which radio flash would be the correct one? The Google version or the Verizon version?
2. What can I check on the phone to determine what version of the hardware I have? I had the bootloader unlock option available when I got the phone, so I thought it was a Google phone. Are there other clues as to the hardware version?
3, Generally, if you are using a Google phone with a Verizon SIM in it, do you use Google builds or Verizon builds?
Thanks in advance
Settings > About phone > Android version
Or
Settings > About phone -- Build number is on the bottom
When I first bought the phone (Google unlocked) I was using Verizon.
I'm now on AT&T, however the build used remain the same.
I'll link the latest factory images for Pixel 5
Android 12
Android 13

Thanks for your response. Something odd seems to be going on here. I found the phones hardware to be GD1YQ in the Regulatory Labels tab, so is not the Japan or Global model. So I know I did not download and flash the Verizon build, but yet the phone says the version is the "D" (Verizon) build. I am not sure whether to flash the radios out of the Verizon version or the Google version of the update. I do not want a brick, so I am confused as to how to move forward.
But, if there is no specifically Verizon version hardware, why is there two different updates? It should not matter which version you use, right? Especially if the hardware is unlocked and the only difference is the sim card...
What am I missing here?

I'm still using A11, actually. I can get the downloads, but just not sure which one I should use.

This is as simple as I can possibly make it for you...
Android 11.0.0 (RQ3A.211001.001, Oct 2021
Android 12.1.0 (SQ3A.220705.003.A1, Jul 2022)
Android 13.0.0 (TP1A.220624.014, Aug 2022)
Depending on if you want to stay on Android 11, upgrade to Android 12 or latest Android 13.. these are the links for the Pixel 5 - Redfin
I personally suggest you upgrade to Android 12, and wait for more releases of Android 13, before upgrading to it.
Choice is yours obviously.
