I just purchased an unlocked S6 active from the online market in Indonesia. everything works well expect 4G LTE network.
it only showed 4G icon behind the signal bar, after I checked the network on sim card status, mobile network type was on UMTS or HSPA, screen shot below

}
then I also check the network status via *#*#4636#*#*, it still the same, network only connected to UMTS/3G and HPSA/3.5G
when I try to change the network type from LTE/GSM auto (PRL) to LTE Only, the signal completely disappeared.
and the network name on the sim card status changed to Unknown
I also change band via *#2263# but nothing.
I'm using Telkomsel, my previous phone (Mi4c) has no problem with LTE network. Telkomsel band was 900mhz/1800+ https://www.frequencycheck.com/carriers/telkomsel-indonesia
the S6 active supported 12 band inlcuding B3 1800+ and B8 900. https://www.frequencycheck.com/models/A3aR9/samsung-sm-g890a-galaxy-s6-active-lte-a
on paper, it should be worked
Is anyone has the same problem? or any solution to solve this?
anyone?
Did you try calling your service provider and asking for the apn settings? Also check that the provider that the phone was originally on doesn't handle LTE differently, and check if your service uses VOLTE, if it doesn't then you'll never get LTE in calls at least.

So, I got the unlocked S6 off of eBay, SM920-F model. I made my research, it should work with the t-mo's LTE and all but so far it has not been playing ball with me.
First of all, even when I am on LTE on this phone, it just shows as 4G which is not a big deal, I can live with that but when I am on LTE, as you can see on the screenshot below, it does not show anything as to how strong my signal is,etc...If I am on H+ though, it does show my signal strength.
And my LTE(4G Signal) is always at about 2 bars at best, no matter where I am, even if I am in the T-Mobile store. I checked my APN settings but I don't think that's the issue.

Someone posted in another thread regarding LTE Discovery and the like apps don't work on the international models. I have the SM-G920I which is also International minus a couple of bands from your "F" global. Anyhow, with my Cricket Wireless sim the network status (not the lte discovery app) shows signal reception and movement however with my T-Mobile sim the network status does not move at all. Always shows -113. But if you use *#0011# the RSRP will show the true results of your reception. Oh and someone also mentioned that not all Global/International phones will display the "LTE" icon in the notification section even when you are connected to LTE. I believe it was carrier or tower/band specific.
Can Jio sim work in Mi4 and can i use mi4 to buy it
I know it's a stupid question lol:silly:
No, Jio works only on 4G phones, and the Mi3W or Mi4W is a 3G enabled phone only.

I got an update MIUI 8 Global 7.1.5 | Beta it shows support for JIO in Change log.
But, unable to find settings to enable VoLTE in preferred network type.
Please check screenshots and help to use Jio in Mi3.

That changelog is just a general one, not device specific.
I don't know why people keep asking how to enable 4G on a 3G phone through software. It is a hardware limitation and no software on earth can make a 3G receiver work on 4G frequencies because it isn't designed to work in that particular frequency at all.

Hi, sorry what's the point of this? I thought you'd want to force LTE only on a 5G phone where you do not have 5G coverage, in order to save previous battery juice. Please elucidate
You can also do it by dialing *#*#4636#*#* - a new screen will appear from where you need to select Phone Information 1 or 2 (as per your respective SIM) and from there you can access the same drop-down and options.
Just use "Network Guru" App
Hello, my name is Matias, I am from Argentina, I have this great phone. My question is the following, in my country 5G is being implemented little by little, but until now I have not been able to see/connect to said network, the maximum that appeared on my phone was 4G+, guided by this post (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/is-your-5g-working-in-uk-on-x30-pro-china-variant.4546301/) I realized that I have the GSM/WCDMA/LTE (PRL) option selected by default and below I have the NR option (and its derivatives) searching a bit I found that the acronym NR refers to New Radio and is based on 5G, if someone could give me more info I would appreciate it.
Thanks
p.s.: in the mobile network part I have activated the 5G option (recommended)
Model: XT2241-1
Network Signal: NR/LTE/GSM/WCDMA
