Mi5 under LineageOS no data mobile (4G, 3G...) - Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers

Hi, I flashed my Mi5 from miui 8 to LineageOS Nougat a week and half ago. I have the latest update which is dropped since April, 11th
Rom is very nice, but I have a huge problem. My operator is a French operator (I'm from France). Its name is "Free".
When I was under miui I had all the time either 4G or 3G when mobile datas were activated
Now since I am under LineageOS, I'm almost always in H and very rarely LTE. I never have "3G/4G". I don't really care about the name, but my mobile datas suck... I mean pages are very slow to load, like it should be in H.
I thought It was a problem from my operator but a friend of mine and I went together at the cinema yesterday and we have the same operator. He was in 4G and had a very nice network.
Mine wasn't able to load Google and I was H... (And he's got a UMI Touch running Marshallow Stock ROM)
What's the issue? Can you help me ? (We got the same Access point names defined)
Thanks, best regards.

Up... Haven't found a fix yet

Change your network settings under sim settings to "Global". Also if you are having network connection issues, try to change your APN.

Can't connect to any freaking mobile network on cm based roms?

Hi guys,
I'm having some serious trouble with my phone not willing to connect to any mobile network at all it just simply says can't connect to this network right now. try again later and after 10 sec it goes into roaming mode :\ this only happens to me when i'm on a custom rom like MIUI, cyanogenmod, AOKP: all have these problems
maybe some important info:
carrier: telenet (in belgium running with a micro-sim)
phone type: C5303
working in stock rom with exact same APN settings!
I can make phone calls and send messages just fine
Someone who can shed some light on this occasion?
thanks,

Is it a "virtual" provider? If yes ROAMING is normal..

I don't know exactly but i do know that on miui on my old phone i saw that it said connected to Mobistar (appearently my carrier "telenet" and the carrier "mobistar are using the same exact network!)
EDIT: i found this on the internet Telenet Mobile is a MVNO that uses the network of Mobistar
so the hole roaming thing is normal then? won't it use more data or waste more money? i really just wanna have 3G or EDGE on the top like i used to have on stock lol it's a bit confusing having roaming at the top
A network using another ones network is called a virtual provider. Let me explain..
In Holland we have KPN, Tmobile and Vodafone. These three are the biggest one here. We also have Telfort, HI, Hollandsnieuwe and Simyo (or Simpel). These providers are called "Virtual" because they dont have their own antennas. They use the one from KPN (most of them) because this is the biggest provider in Holland at the moment.
The issue you describe sound very familiair. In the Galaxy S + section I've read about this issue and some users fixed this with turning ROAMING on. I did not encounter any issues like this on my Galaxy S+ at that time because im on Vodafone.
Perhaps this will be the solution for you? It also could be a CyanogenMod bug but I have no idea

YAY i got the normal symbols back!!! :: by changing this spn-conf with this one: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s...AGgdPfjLR9knQqvVECx_brcvkPoFkEccIHEAJIar7-lUA
and the enabling data network!
FOR ANYONE HAVING THIS ISSUES WITH MVNO'S USE THAT SPN-CONF.XML!!!!!
The R symbol is normal. It is cool that you changed it but still the R was normal..
Nice work tho
Mine is having throttled speeds, at only 25 Mbps maximum over both cellular network (LTE) and WiFi based on both the CM10.2 & PacMan ROM (Android 4.3.1). Can anyone explain why? Download speed over WiFi is normally over 40 Mbps for stock 2.254 firmware.

23.4.A.0.546 - Z3C 5.1.1 4G - Signal Problem

Hi Everyone,

I experienced the same problem on .546, here in Dallas AT&T has a strong LTE signal but my z3 only showed one bar consistently throughout the day. I found no way to remedy this other than downgrade back to 5.0.2.
Sony xperia z3c mobile data problem
Hi,
sorry for my bad english. After the latest aktualization 23.4.A.0.546 (Android 5.1.1) I have a problem with interrupted mobile data connection (3G, 2G), permanently connect, disconnect. 4G holds on (done up), but very bad signal, rather none. Device is factory reseted after the actualization, sim card is OK, operator (T-mobile CZ) doesn’t see any problem with configuration. Before the actualization no problem. Question posted on official technical support Sony a week without response. In my opinion - bugged actualization. Anyone any idea?

Issues
The 4g is really weak but I'm also having trouble with phone calls. The caller cannot always hear me. I have to switch back and forth between speaker and handset. As a result callers hang up on me but also because the signal is weak my calls drop. Another issue I have is when I logonto WiFi all running apps fail to operate data specific features. For example if I long g into WiFi my whatsapp will stop sending and receiving messages and if I go back up cellular those messages will sometimes leave the queue but generally I have to restart my phone.
Body lock feature on smart lock does not work, first day out out caused me a huge problem with a girl I was seeing. I should add that these issues are also being experience by my friend, we both have the z3c USA version.
yeah I am having issues as well where it drops out and gets weak. I have another 4g phone on the same network and that isnt having the issues.
edit: using 23.4.A.0.546 - Unbranded - BALTIC (1288-5413) on a UK z3c
I have no problems with signal strength. In the place of my tests I have always 100% coverage.
But I have observed very slow change 3g / 2g to lte (preferred) / 3g / 2g. The delay was 2 to 3 minutes to switch from 3G to LTE. I have done many many tests.
Maybe finally I managed to solve: I have opened mobile mode info with * # * # 4636 # * # * and I changed mode LTE / WCDMA. Now the connection to LTE is faster, 15 to 20 seconds.
Maybe you can try the mobile mode info.
I continue to report more tests.
I using NCB 1288-5411 23.4.A.0.546_R14C (Nordic Combined) customized Slim Wajk . In Spain.
Lte only
That works for me but now I cannot make calls because voice is handled in the 3g network. Ideas?
---------- Post added at 12:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:50 PM ----------
Lte/GSM(auto prl) works for me and resolves the data issues
I switched to the UK o2 version (my carrier) and things seem to be back to normal and I now have the NFC icon in the notifcation panel, something absent on the version I had installed before.
very odd. but I like the o2 version as it allows me to chose just 4g/3g/2g etc for when I am in areas of bad signal, not something the other versions give you as much control over.
Blah
Still the same issues. Hopefully Sony can patch this.

Hi Azazelix,
I'm also in TMCZ network and I used to have data connection problems (losing data connection when travelling) with others than T-Mobile CZ branded fw.
Since I'm on branded TMCZ LP fw, all problems are gone.
I'm guessing it might have something to do with radio version -> now I have 8974-AAAAANAZQ-00063-42 and no problems.
As far as I know TMCZ branded 5.1 is not released yet! -> thus my suggestion for going back to latest TMCZ branded fw and hold on until TMCZ branded 5.1
is gonna get released.
Good luck to you!
The Sony support forums suggested that you changed your app settings. In your app settings where it says ipv6, change it to ipv4. This seems to have worked for me however I'm still having issues with people hearing me when I use speaker phone.
No news? Im brazillian. The same problem with 5.1.1
Unique solution is back to 5.0.2?

Mobile network not working for MI5 - Critical

Hi MI5 community,
I am unable to use mobile network flawlessly in my MI5. Sometimes SIM1 running, SIM1+SIM2 both running, none of SIM card works. 2 weeks back I mistakenly selected the radio band as USA Band from *#*#4636#*#* -> Phone information1. Then after a fresh flashboot ROM installed problem solved automatically, but ideally this should not be. But now I am having terrible issue with SIM1 and SIM2 signal reception. Finally I have successfully write NV Values which was originally. But even after setting up values to the original, I am not getting mobile network signal. If I put only one SIM card then status bar says No Signal. If I put both SIM then 1st one says No Signal and 2nd one says Emergency calls only. Sometimes randomly SIM1 runs but SIM2 not. sometimes both not, sometimes both. Frustrating experience ever. Would appreciate if anyone can help me.
Looking forward some help from @TheUltrametricSpace especially.
I don't know whether i can help or not but i used to have mobile network fluctuating issue. At the same area, my SIM1 AND 2 will goes from 5 bar to 0, then came back to 3, then back to 0 then back to 5 again. It happen countless of times during the day(or even night). But the problem fixed when i switched to xiaomi.eu rom for mi5. I did do clean wipe system, data via twrp before i switched to xiaomi.eu rom.
Hope that helped
Hi @yChoon
Thanks for adding some views. Yesterday full day I was in latest EU ROM and the whole day I couldn't able to receive any signal. But around 8PM I have received signal @sim1 only. I hope I will be able to find out the culprit someday. But completely clueless

Hello @yChoon
I'm having the same issue as you with my Mi5. Did you ever experienced those issues again?

Mi5 lte issue with all roms

Hello Fellow MI5 Users,
I am writing this thread to see if anyone else is having issues like me with my Mi5.
The problem is the intermittent signal issue with LTE, My problem started when I flashed 6.7.28 miui 8 update at first I thought that it was my Network Provider, but when I checked my dad's and sisters phones (same provider) their 4G signal is very stable without any issues at all.
So to describe my problem this is what's happening to my phone.
My phone is now running the latest Global beta miui8 6.8.12
When switching to LTE as prefer connection my phone signal goes crazy from NO SIGNAL - NO SERVICE - EMERGENCY ONLY - NO SIMCARD as I dig in to my settings i change my preferred connection to 3G Only which in my surprise works well and perfect without any issues but the problem here in my country(Philippines) you cannot rely on H or H+ at all since the network provider service sucks bigtime!
So far here's a list of what I did with my phone to fix it
- Flash back to China miui8 later version that I remembered that I don't have any issues with my LTE(Sucks because the issue was there also when I went back)
- Flash to MIUI 7 (Ohh well at this point I thought going back to miui7 will fix this issue but NO, not at all and I'm losing patience)
- Flash all KINDS of CM Based OS (Well switching OS might solve the issue, But believe me it got worst! after flashing all kinds of CM Based OS on my MI5 it all went down to Reboot forever bug (this happens when my phone boots and phone started to connect to LTE)
- Went back to Global beta miui 8 6.8.12 basedband version TH20c1.9-00038 up until now im still using this version.

Could it be you're own carrier hasn't got coveridge for LTE for your device?

In my country lte is Band 3(1800) and mi5 should support that band,right?

For me my carrier do support coverage for MI5, but just recently it went nuts
hi im using official global rom with my mi5 but i cant make native video call on my gsm operotor because of not support miui 7 and 8 so.. is there a rom support native video calling like samsung ?
Mi5 Prime user here. same problem with LTE as well using GLOBE sim, no problem with SMART so far. using China ROM MIUI 8
here are my observations
GLOBE switched to LTE - stable when stationary.. goes NO SIGNAL / EMERGENCY CALLS ONLY when moving in a vehicle
i guess there is a problem on the radio signal switching from H+ to LTE vise versa. unlike my other phone - Meizu M2 Note. no problem switching between 3G / H+ / 4G.

Sucks right? I wanted to switch carrier as well but then again, LTE coverage with smart sucks specially in my location... Hoping that this will be fix soon..
I used to have a perfect LTE with globe 4G+ after some time after updating OS version it went nuts

Hello James,
I am having the exact same issue on my Globe Sim. I just bought mine last week. Whenever i turn on my mobile data, signal suddenly goes to no service, not detected, etc. Its very frustruating.
Is my unit defective? Or is it just a firmware issue?

I am using both Mi5 and Redmi Note 4x. In both phones, I experience frequent network connection drops for both SIM cards in serted on the phone (one is Sun, the other is Globe). Even while stationary, I exeperience the network drop where the signal bar for both SIMs suddenly simultaneously disappear. The network drop is worse when I am mobile. In addition, the network drop is causing the app I am using at the time to restart. PLEASE HELP.
hi.. is this thread still active? have you found the solution?
i am also from the Philippines, been using globe for 2 years in mi5 with no connection problems, then recently, when i try to connect to data, the signal goes on and off just like yours.. just this month, i updated from miui7 to miui9 and the problem got worst! when i connect to mobile data, phone reboots after a minute! i tried every fix i found in the internet (reset APN settings, factory reset, airplane mode) but nothing seems working.. So i tried Sun as my other network and it works perfectly fine.. Also, i tried to interchange sim 1 and 2 slot but still not fixed.. Another thing, when i turn the data in different place, my connection seems okay.. i live in cebu city but works in lapulapu.. the problem occurs in lapulapu..
help! is this network related or somethings wrong with the phone?
Good to see this thread. I thought my phone had a factory defect.
based on my experience.
version 9.1.1.0 and below only loses signal for globe while on data connection in some locations .
higher versions up to the latest(now is 9.5.5.0) causes our phone to totally reboot in some locations as well.
maybe it has to do with the signal/radio frequency on the area for the identified carrier(Globe).
this is easy.

4G doesn't stay, always return to H+

Hello everyone,
I just bought a Oneplus 3T and it's a really good phone, but i'm facing an issue : 4G only appears a few time (with almost full bars) but it's just coming back to H+ every time, i mean every time.
Usually i have 4G in that place, even with my old ****y Samsung Xcover 3 and its the same with another phone operator sim card.
What do you recommend for me ?
Thank you very much
Details :
French version
Up-to-date (Android 8.0.0)
Phone operator : Sosh (tried B&YOU)
Fix
*#*#4636#*#* use the diagnostic under phone information and move it to 4g/lte only
I've seen this solution but it's not a real one, no ?
If I put LTE Only, i will not have 3G/H/H+ and stuff if there is no 4G around me, right ?
Perhaps your ISP radio tower is far away, doesnt mean its phones fault
I had some issues with sim. I've to get new sim and 4g service reactivated
Well, as i said before, i was able to have 4G even with my old Xcover3 in that place, so it's not the network provider's fault.
4G is working on my Oneplus 3T, it's just that it's most of the time, like MOST, on H+ and not 4G even if I had 4G in thèses places before...
It looks like he phone auto balance between 4G & 3G as soon as 4G is a little bit weak (even weak, it's still beter than 3G anyway...) and I noticed that sometimes the data are just turned down (nothing DL, charge, but H+ still on status bar).
Im on Oreo stock OOS, do you know if there is any issues on this new version ?
