Hello, I have been trawling through posts here and on Reddit for a few hours now.
I only today bothered to install the EMUI 10.0.0 update on my JSN-L21 (UK variant?) and have discovered the issue that many a EMUI user has had: I cannot disable the VoLTE icon on the notification bar. There is no option to disable VoLTE itself in settings. I have tried SystemUI Tuner, and directly blacklisting the volte/volte_call icons with ADB. Neither had an effect.
I suspect I may have had VoLTE switched on in settings prior to the update and left it enabled, but I cannot now disable it as the phone seems to have detected that my provider/contract does not actually support 4G Calling, so it hides this option from me; as such, I cannot see whether or not the option is turned on in the background.
Does anyone have any idea how to proceed from here? I know of SetEdit but I've no idea what I'm looking for. I've seen a small number of things that might be relevant but I fear changing them in case it's wrong. In the Global Table there's a line called "volte_vt_enabled" set to "1"; "card_volte_flag_0" set to "1"; "card_volte_flag_1" set to "-1" ( I assume flag_1 refers to the secondary sim card, which I do not have inserted), beyond that I haven't seen anything but I most likely have missed many things.
Thanks

I use my phone daily in a non-Verizon network, so having Data Roaming enabled is very important for me. The new ROM I installed, however, does not have a menu option for enabling/disabling Data Roaming.
Does anyone know of a way to do this through script? Or maybe there is something that can be changed in "build.prop" (or another file) that would change the default setting of Data Roaming disabled to be enabled?

Thank you, but that isn't quite what I'm looking for. It looks like it could possibly work, but I I'm looking for a way to permanently turn the Data Roaming on. I don't care if I need to edit the ROM files before I flash them or if there is some sort of hack I can install/perform after the ROM is running.
Maybe there is a way to install the AOSP or stock version of the component that controls this? Does anyone know what component controls the data roaming?
hmm i dont know how could you achieve this....its a bit more advanced
Still looking for the magic bullet
I'm very interested in this as well.
Does anybody know if the Roam Control app is able to keep Data roaming on at all times? I have not been able to find a trial version to try it out...
Or is there any other way of keeping it on? For a Motorola Droid 3.
I have tried modifying build.prop with many different settings that I have found in other threads but nothing has worked so far. I need to re-enable data roaming manually maybe 20 times a day.
Thanks!
Nobody?
I sent a mail to the author of Roam Control asking if his app is able to do this but still no answer
I finally took the problem in my own hands and managed to make a small app that re-enables data roaming at the touch of a button.
I needs to be installed as a system app for it to work, but it works! :laugh:

I want to permanently enable data roaming but several Google searches have led me to only this thread. I have just downloaded Roaming Control and will tinker with it to see if it solves the issue of the constant nagging data roaming warnings.
I am confused. In my Jellybean settings there's a selection field titled "Show roaming reminder". Even though I have set it to "Never" it still gives a data roaming warning every single time. Either I am misinterpreting the use of that selection field or it's flat out broken or disabled by the carrier.
I own a Galaxy S II that runs CM 11. I usually get a brown colored icon for mobile network symbol in my power menu most of the time. I tried doing some googling and I found that something called "fast dormancy" may/may not have something to do with it. Firstly, I don't know if SGS2 supports FD. Secondly, I want to know whether this is the root cause. I edited my build.prop file to add FD property but it changed nothing.
When the icon is brown, I will get a window of few seconds where I will receive WhatsApp notifications (this happens after every reboot I do with the 3G switched on!). Even though, I receive notifications from messengers, I am not able to send messages. Forget about accessing social networks! This thing has been bugging me for two weeks now. What's the fix? I'm quite sure that something other than FD is responsible for this.
Reboots didn't help.
Putting the mobile on and off flight mode didn't work.
Please help.

I don't know or your provider supports fast dormancy I suggest to try to turn it off to see or that's the cause.
As far as I know the brown/orange icon means that you don't have connection to google servers/internet. It's odd that you are receiving but you can't send anything. As far as I have my computer knowledge, you've got some setting issue. Like it receives the data from the server but it sends it probably to the wrong location. Is there somewhere in the settings where you could enter manually your 3g settings from your provider? I can't specific tell you how since I don't own a smartphone for 5 months already and I never really used 3g.
If setting flighmode on and off doesn't work then I still think it's an issue just like you need to set on somethings your email server like from which server it receives stuff and to which server you are sending stuff.

I tried adding those parameters to turn off FD in build.props file! It didn't work! Maybe I should ask the network provider for fresh settings !!!

Yes I should ask that, you could also maybe try first another custom rom to verify it's your provider, But the orange icon means that you are already connected but there are still some issues.
Ask them for your problem and I hope for you that your problem gets solved:good: 2 weeks is a long time so they can't ignore you.
You needn't read this thread. There is nothing of any import here.
I was unable to learn how to delete it, or I would have.
As I mentioned below, I manually updated this phone to Nougat using the LG Bridge program. It complicates matters that I can't remember the exact time-frame for issues. I do remember getting real-time traffic updates using google maps even after I upgraded to Android 7. And I did stream Netflix once while on a 12 hour roadtrip, but I can't remember if that was before or after the road-trip. I have found and tried many APN's for the H2O service. Some are supposedly specifically for the G5, others just for mms or internet. Most recently, I did a factory reset after backing up my personal data and media. Twice now actually. The first time, I ran the backup software soon after resetting and when things hadn't changed, I surmised that maybe I was just importing the problem back onto the phone in my settings or something, so I reset again and this time only chose two of the settings categories near the top of the list since they seemed separate to the navigation programming.
I'm going to reset again now and see if the maps work with a stock setup, then see if I can slowly add things one at a time and continually monitor the data functionality.
If a moderator sees this and can delete this post, I would appreciate it since it doesn't seem like it could be helpful to anyone else the way it is. If I am successful in getting the data working and this thread still remains, I will post the process I had followed to achieve that in an "Issue Solved" heading at the bottom. Everything between the snowflakes (*****) is the older post and edits.

History of Issue(s):
>This is my first smartphone and my first Android device
> Bought phone used off swappa running MM 6.?
>Have owned phone for around 8 months
>Volume down button wasn't working, figured I could live with pressing vol up and moving it down manually.
> Thought it would be good idea to upgrade manually to Nougat (10h update) Using LG bridge (about 5 months ago?)
> My carrier is H2Owireless, an AT&T MVNO
> Used to have internet, google maps real-time traffic used to work, Netfilx used to work (both without WiFi).
> Could make calls, send texts, listen to Pandora or Spotify and use my Maps for commuting to work.
> Couldn't send MMS pic msgs.
> Began to learn about APN's and what the different network settings did.
>Tried many APN's and fotzed around with Global, LTE/CDMA, LTE/GSM/UMTS and the submode settings
>Can get 4G and LTE , often have to switch back to Global setting to send SMS/MMS
> Had H2O set up APN as best they knew and network settings to what they felt would work best
> Can do anything and evrything when Wifi is enabled (that's never been an issue)
> I thought phone had bricked about 2 months ago while on a roadtrip.
> Discovered on forum that I could swap cam plus for chin and power on that way.
> Turned out power button was no longer functional
> Learned about vol up + charger to power on phone (use an app to power off and restart phone)
> took off cam plus so I could have phone in case.
And now, I'm standing at the edge of a very deep rabbit hole with a phone that can't use mobile data for most internet access (spotify works, Pandora never worked very well). I've discovered that the version of Nougat I'm running is problematic (update 10h Brightpoint) and that my forcing the update to Nougat might be largely responsible for these issues.
I see myself having a choice between learning how to flash the phone back to Marshmallow, or learning how to flash it up to update 21c... or live without mobile data for most of the functionality I wanted from the phone...
I seek advice from the the forum for which of these options people think I might best choose. Do I need to acquaint myself with these programs used to flash the ROM? Does it seem to you readers that my problems are symptomatic of those which are best rectified by flashing up? Or rolling back to Marshmallow...
I just want to be able to google something while I'm away from wifi.. to get traffic updates while I'm using the navigation.. to listen to spotify.. maybe even watch something on netflix... (calling, SMS and MMS functionality is a given, but I do still have them for the most part).
I can pick things up if I read tutorials / guides... I've flashed PC BIOS before... I could figure it out if I needed to...
But maybe I just need a new chin or clean it? Maybe I should factory reset? Maybe there's other potential causes I'm unaware of?
Any and all suggestions are welcome. It's late here and I won't be reading any responses until tomorrow at work.
Thanking you very much in advance. --Wayne
Edit: I was about to check LG Bridge to see if there was an update available for nougat.. thought I would get this out there first since I was pretty sure I wouldn't get both done tonight..
3rd edit: I checked for LG update, nothing available. I finally decided to factory reset before getting into flashing. That seemed to fix the google maps issue as it seemed to be working without WiFi enabled (I say 'seemed' because my office is slightly below grade and getting a good signal is tough. If it's not working, the address remains grayed out and the connection just buffers, the address filled in after the reset. Then I decided to move some of the things I had backed up from the SD card but neglected to deselect the settings box. After restoring much of what I had backed up, It seemed more like how it had been before the reset. I noticed a small icon next to the signal type and strength meter at the top which hadn't been there before the reset (a small white square with rounded edges that has a zig-zag line going through it that kind of looks like a jagged "N"). Instead of saying offline, the app says poor connection, so I will test it on my way home.. I am hopeful. It seems promising. If I have to reset again, I will deselect settings and set things up fresh; I think that will help. I am beginning to think this isn't so much about my OS or any hardware failure as it is the H2O at&t mvno being throttled or something similar. Even when I'm getting 4 bars of 4G, the maps loads very slowly.. nothing at all like it does on WiFi.
I'll post a final edit after I try it out on the ride home this evening.

Hello,
I'm running stock Android 8.0 (47.1.A.5.51) and recently I have noticed that manual network selection feature is either not implemented or not working. After selecting a network manually from the list of found networks the phone switches automatically(without even asking) to any other available network once the signal of preselected one is missing. As I live on the border between two countries it is quite a frequent problem and very frustrating one at that. I have system updates disabled; could you please comment whether Sony fixed this issue with a later SW version? Also if you know any third party app that can fix this I would appreciate a reference.
Hey guys,
I'm from India and I have an Mi 11x Pro running the latest stock global stable rom (13.0.3). I'm facing an issue where my wifi automatically turns off at night and I'm losing money because I freelance and I'm missing out on work emails. My phone automatically turns off the wifi connection from 2 to 3 a.m. to around 5 or 6 a.m.
I googled before posting here and I found a few recommendations on the internet and on reddit, but none of those recommended things exist in my phone. There is no "Scenarios" in the battery section. There is no "Enable/disable wifi automatically" in the Wifi Assistant section.
Please tell me how to disable this behavior, else I'm throwing this stupid phone away and never buying an Mi/Xiaomi phone again. This is preposterous. I've already lost hundreds of dollars worth of work, which is more than what I paid for this stupid phone.
I am finally turning to the good people of XDA to help me solve this.
Thanks a lot in advance and sorry for the rant.
Check your router settings. My router under Advanced-Wireless Settings, has an option to "Turn off wireless signal by schedule" with a start and end time to disable all wireless. Just a thought, but may be worth a look.

It's not a router thing. It's a thing that MIUI does where it turns your phone's wifi off at night. As soon as you unlock the phone, the wifi icon comes up and it connects to the network and there come all the email and whatsapp notifications. There is an option to disable this behavior in the EU version of the rom but not in the Global Stable version. Morons just outright removed the option to disable it while still keeping the behavior active.
I found this...

And I think the first option should help with my problem. I'll check it out and see if it helps. Will post here of my findings.
