Field Test mode? - Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers

Has anyone managed to get field test mode on the mate 20?
I'd love to see the inner details on what LTE bands i'm connecting to etc
Samsung, htc etc all tend to have a handy ui behind a dialer code.

System Settings| About Phone | Status will give you what you're looking for wont it ?
Failing that try the LTE Discovery app

Questions regarding Hero

hi all,
just recently bought a hero and sorry for the noob questions. any help will be greatly appreciated.
1.) How do i activate the green notification light for any new notifications? so far i can only use the trackball to flash for a number of minutes and thats it.
2.) how can i permanently use 3g as a signal without switching back to edge? i prefer 3g because it is faster, but when i use the web, it reverts to edge making it slower when browsing. i want it never to switch back to edge just 3g.
3.) How do you update radio and rom? is it the same with winmo? i have a topaz and im currently using hero.
Thanks for any feedback!
So far the only answer i found was the notification light as a bug or a defect. line switching is still unsolved and updating.

1) It works as it is stated in the user's manual. How can you state that it is a bug or defect? Funny... Just because it works that way on Magic or G1 does not mean that it has to be the same on Hero.
2) You cannot as your phone will automatically switch between them when one another is not available. You phone will select 3G only if it is available around where you are. If it switches to Edge/GPRS/whatever, that means you don't have 3G signals around you.
3) There are 1.000 posts on the forum here regarding updating ROM, etc. Search is our best friend.

You can force HSDPA, but you do so at your own risk!
You need to download AnyCut from the Market and create new shortcut to the activity "Phone Info". From this short cut, you access a screen which gives lots of diagnostic info about the phones state and there is an option to "Set preferred network type". By default this is "WCDMA Preferred", but if you want to force to always use HSDPA you should select "WCDMA Only".
Note if you do this, your phone will never drop back to 2G, even if a 2G signal is available and a 3G one isn't.
I wouldn't advise playing around with any of the other options in this screen unless you know what you are doing!
Regards,
Dave

very interesting. because for my topaz i always set it to wcdma only. willing to give it a try. where can i download it? do i need a gmail account for this? cant find it any website where it can be downloaded.
Android software is downloadable via the Android Market application on your hero - any purchases are made by using a google checkout account which is set up like paypal so you don't need to enter your details all the time...

Disabling LTE/4G as simple as pulling the SIM?

Just watched a YouTube demo and the guy mentioned pulling the SIM card being the only way to turn off LTE/4G. I know there have been many questions posed and didn't see this mentioned so figured I'd put it out there.

I feel like I just have to ask... why would you want to turn off 4G? if you have no 4G in your service area, the phone already automatically switch down to 3G

To minimize battery drain when you're not needing/using data? I guess you could leech wifi as often as possible too but know many people have asked about disabling 4G, I can only assume its power consumption related.
Don't pull out the SIM card. What happen if you loose it? You'll be ended up by paying additional charge for replacing new sim card.
The good way to disable 4G is just type:
*#*#4636#*#* when you want to make call.
Then, scroll down until you see the word says "CDMA + LTE/EvDo".
Click that and change it to "CDMA PRL Auto".
If you want to use 4G, just do the steps above, and instead of "CDMA PRL Auto", change it to "CDMA + LTE/EvDo" (you can also change to "LTE mode" if you want 4G only).
Hopefully, it will help you

You can "automate" this is a way by downloading an app called "Phone Info" by [email protected] It allows you to enable/disable 4G. Basically does exactly what dialing would do but is faster and easier.

Thanks for the link. My app drawer's cluttered enough with apps, though; maybe after we get root and can remove all the bloat/crap-ware.
I usually just add a contact with all the dialer codes so I don't have to memorize them. I'm in a 4G area, so don't really see the need for this personally, but nice to know the trick anyways.

I used to have the same issue with a cluttered app drawer (I'd uninstall apps I used occasionally just to shrink my app drawer). I started using ADW Launcher EX a while back and it lets you make different app drawer versions. Basically you can choose which apps show up in the app drawer, so you can hide all the bloatware icons and leave the apps you use all the time. Then when you want one of your rarely used apps, just switch to the "ALL" app drawer and it will show every app installed on your phone. Just a suggestion, I found it to be really helpful.

So, what's the way to use Thunderbolt in overseas CDMA networks that doesn't offer 4G LTE service.
Is manual PRL programming (mean ##DIAG mode) or R-UIM card possible solution for this problem?
If you use LauncherPro you can create an Activity to go directly to the phoneinfo screen. I use this all the time to turn off 3G on my Droid1 when I'm at work thanks to no 3g at all.
Long press the home screen, add shortcut, then Activities. Select Settings and scroll down for what seems for ever until you see Phone info and select it.

What can I do with a MSL#

Hello to all my XDA'ers,
Question, So I now have my MSL#. What can I do with this number?? Can I fix the random reboots with this? Can I obtain better 3G service? What can I do now?
Thanks to all!
That's a very good question.
Okay, an MSL number benefits you in the following ways:
- Allows you to REPROGRAM your phone
- Access Hidden Menus
& More.
An MSL number does not allow you to:
- Fix Random Reboots
- Root Phone
Now, rooting the phone will allow you to:
- Get rid of Sprint Proxies, (which slightly speed up 3G, and 4G speeds, but doesn't allow you to use Sprint TV, not significantly on 3G, but possibly on 4G)
- Get Free WiFi Hotspot
& Much More.
If I helped you, don't forget to throw me a thanks, just click the thanks button!

Thanks for the response. I am currently rooted (stock rom). Unsure which ROM to use, I would like something that is fairly stable?? any suggestions??
as for the hidden menus that require the MSL - is there anything else other than ##3282#. I did see that there is a "hack" in which you change the IP's to 0.0.0.0 and the Ports to 0 - does this do anything for the Photon.
Yes ##3282# select multimedia hit menu button then edit
Then enter 6digit msl then done then change proxies to 0.0.0.0and ports to 0 then reboot
All it does is change the speed of 3g data slightly may not even notice.. it depends from device to device...its been a well known hack on the evo for awhile ..I do it on all my phones.. And other devices. If u wanna put back to original proxies and ports just be sure to right them down and same method then reboot
Stock proxys are
rtsp.vog.sprintpcs.com
Port 554
Pd.vog.sprintpcs.com
Port 8085
Dont loose your MSL code! !!!!!

Yes, there are a few other things than the ##DATA#, (##3282#), but I am currently unaware of them, there is a thread in the forums that show what the benefits of having the MSL Number. If I relocate it, I will add it to this thread.
The ROM that I would personally recommend is Joker Skinny ROM, it is the most stable as of right now.

[Xposed] [EXPERIMENTAL] National Roaming

Do you need to enable data roaming to get a connection even in your home network? If so, you probably know the hassle this causes when you travel abroad, or live near the border where your phone can sometimes log into another network. You have to disable data roaming every time, and if you forget, you'll get an unpleasant surprise on your next phone bill.
Maybe you know CyanogenMod's "National Roaming" feature that enables roaming only in your home country, so you don't have to disable roaming manually when you leave the country. I've used this in the past and got used to it, so much that having to live without it would annoy me a lot.
Since I just got a new phone for which CyanogenMod isn't available, I wrote an Xposed module which mimics this feature. My new phone happens to be an MTK6589 dual SIM device (Tronsmart TS7), so I also added support for the dual SIM modifications MediaTek made.
It's in a very early stage and mostly untested. It "works" insofar as the roaming icon is gone and I get a data connection without enabling roaming. I don't know if it properly detects when you're really roaming. It should, but I can't test it for now since I don't live near the border and don't have a working foreign SIM. If somebody could test whether it actually works, that would be greatly appreciated!
Requirements:
Xposed Framework
It *should* work on any Android version Xposed runs on, but so far I've only tested it on my TS7's stock 4.2.1.
Play Store?
I intend to publish it there as well, but only after it has been a bit more thoroughly tested and enough people reported that it works and doesn't cause any issues.
Source code:
https://github.com/leromarinvit/NationalRoaming
Version history (old versions here):
v0.2 - 2013-08-29 - fix Android 4.3 compatibility
v0.1 - 2013-08-25 - initial release
Technical details:
The module works by hooking pollStateDone() in com.android.internal.telephony.gsm.GsmServiceStateTracker. This function notifies listeners when the roaming state changes. So to fake the roaming state everything else sees, we only have to change it before this function is called. The logic is simple: We're roaming if and only if the MCC (mobile country code - first three digits of the numeric operator id) stored on the SIM and provided by the network differ.
In the past, I've manually patched framework.jar for some ROMs for my device and some others, by modifying isRoamingBetweenOperators()* to follow the same logic as this module. With Xposed available now, writing this as a module seems like a much cleaner solution that will work on many more devices than one could reasonably maintain manually, and with much less effort.
* I initially tried to hook this function with Xposed. However, this didn't work, because while the function exists in MediaTek's stock ROM, it never seems to be called.
I tried you module, but it doesn't work for me. I still have to enable "roaming" to get a data connection. The app "phono" shows "roaming" if I use a national roaming provider.
My network operator is "three austria", using only 3G (UMTS) networks but allows national roaming on the 2G network of "t-mobile austria". My phone is a Nexus 4 with stock rom (Android 4.3) , the XPosed framework works for XPrivacy, MaDaCo Toolkit and NFC LockScreenOff Enabler.
Can I help to find a solution?
Edit: Thanks for your dev version, works great for me now.
Thank you very much, oma, for this great little module --> this is really useful for me...!
Was anyone able to actually test it yet, either by roaming onto a foreign network, or popping in a foreign SIM?

Thanks again.
I'm living in Austria using Hutchinsons Network "3". Yesterday I tested your module near the Czech Republic and it works perfect!
With data roaming disabled data transfer in the czech network did not work (as expected) but swiching between "3"'s austrian 2G-networks works fine.
Congratulation, great work. Let us know when we can find your program in google's play store.
Sent from my Mobistel Cynus T5 using xda app-developers app
That's good to hear! Before I put it on the Play Store, I want to add an activity that does some sanity checks (is Xposed installed? enabled? module enabled?) and tells the user what to do if anything isn't set up correctly so I don't get loads of "I installed this and it doesn't do anything, there's not even a launcher icon!!!1" comments.
This app might prove useful to me when I visit my home country in a few months.
Many thanks, it's suppose to working fine in my MTK6589 device, roaming R sign is gone, I will report some more results after a week when I am roaming in other state.

You can't receive incoming calls any more? This definitely shouldn't happen, and is a major bug. Thanks for catching this! Does the problem go away when you disable National Roaming or Xposed?
Edit: This seems to be a combined GSM/CDMA/LTE device, correct? Which of the radios are you using, i.e. what's your provider and which network type is it?

Difference with GravityBox Implementation ?
Hi,
Thanks a lot for this module, it was on my todo-list for months.
Could you explain me quickly the differences with GravityBox's implementation ?
It seems to me that theirs lake per-SIM handling, am I right ?

So you have a Korean SIM, but are currently in Vietnam, right? Which provider are you roaming on, do you know which technology it uses (GSM/UMTS or CDMA)? CDMA could potentially be a problem with the current implementation. But the most important question is still: Does the problem go away if you disable National Roaming?

That's cool, I haven't seen this yet. Thanks! The biggest differences seem to be that GravityBox only supports 4.2+ (or at least it did last time I checked), but the implementation looks cleaner. It should support MTK dual SIM as well (the "Gemini" stuff).

I had assumed that the setting would always be there but greyed out if not supported by the network; but perhaps not! The phone definitely supports it as you can see.
I think this is sim dependent, based on my experience with other phones

Sorry can't help further; it does work for me in the UK on the BT (EE) network with the Find N (I have terrible network reception where I live also). Might be worth checking with your network provider to see if Wifi Calling is only enabled for certain phones on their network, and whether they can enable it for the Find N?

It's very weird: Wifi calling is enabled on my SIM, works on my Samsung, but doesn't show up on my Find N.
Oh well...

Did you ever find out why you couldn’t Use WI-FI calling? I am having the same issue, there isn’t the option for me to enable..
I found it wasn't working on ColorOS 12, but is on ColorOS 13 beta
We’re you able to get it downloaded onto your fold and work?

Yep. I had it listed as an update and it installed fine. Writing from it now and it hasn't missed a beat. Yet to notice any bugs
Thank you, now I guess I just need to get lucky in downloading the beta? Tried the download steps and it wont pop up. Any other ways tog eat it onto my fold?

I was already on ColorOS 13 developer preview 2, so I suspect this has something to do with it.. The problem is, 1 - The software needed to get DP2 is no longer available on the Oppo developer site. 2 - Most importantly, if you did manage to get your hands on a copy of DP2 and your version is already above 19 this wouldn't work anyway, as the process to install DP2 only worked on versions 19 and below..
