Iv just came across this in the developer settings
By default network it's set as NSA mode non stand alone, I have switched to SA + NSA.
I do not no if this will have an effect on battery or not.
(I think it might)
NSA relies on the 4G network facilities to provide more speed and higher data bandwidth. A 5G-enabled smartphone will connect to 5G or 4G network depending on conditions.
( standalone ) SA is the true 5G network, where the 5G network has its dedicated 5G facilities to provide enormous speed improvements and minimal network latency (delay). The 5G SA network is independent of the 4G network.
Will obviously only work if your in a 5G area, but I think I see a difference in browser speeds and the full web pages loads up much faster.
Test for yourself.
Switched both options and tried network speed test got no difference. Dubai 5G network

Maybe I'm just seeing things lol, it's ment to take full advantage of the 5g speeds, maybe it doesn't work yet I don't know

Is it possible to manually change the LTE band priority on an unlocked US S9+. I just activated mine on the Sprint network today, and data transfer speeds are slower than on my S5. I've tried resetting the network configuration which at least improved the upload speed from zero.

If your carrier is working with multiple LTE frequencies your phone will automatically use the one that has the strongest signal in your location.
If it's a LTE-A network it will connect in all compatible frequencies and use channel aggregation to boost the connection bandwidth.

You can change using shortcut master lite from playstore
find hidden network settings from that app
Received POCO F1 using Jio 4G & Vodafone 4G SIM
on Jio When network latch on 1800Mhz then 4G+ sign Here
but speed is same as 4G (1Mbps) only
& when it latch 850 or 2300 its only 4G & speed is same as 4G
Now Question is Its Really Support 4G+ (4CA) ?

Yes it does imho.
1. Speed of jio I have seen up to 63Mbps, whereas in other phones the same sim at the same location at the same time gives less than 40Mbps.
2. Checked with LTE discovery and Network info lite and both shows LTE_CA with band 40.
3. In the phone settings, about phone, status, sim Jio shows lte_ca whereas voda shows only 4g .
4. Getting good coverage even in rural area with Jio probably due to 4g+
Also Network coverage seems to better and 4g speeds better than other phones, even voda gives good speeds or is it a placebo effect?

no mean my aria no 4g + on jio? becoz not working for mea speed as 0.95mbps on all band
In Spain not 4g+ at all, doesnt allow CA in any combinations of bands. B3, 7 and 20 supported, but can't aggregate any of them, just using one always, tested with another phone that gets perfectly 3xCA.

kolkata band 40+band 40 ca so speed is 100 Mbps
POCO F1 Does not Support LTE band 3+5 or 5+40 Or 3+5+40
its only Support 3+40, 40+40, 3+3, 1+1, or 1+3+5 which is not usefull in india
OnePlus 6 Support any combination of JIO IND LTE band 3+5 or 5+40 Or 3+5+40 or 40+40

Glad to see you man..
In they launch event they said that they worked closely with Qualcomm to make sure carrier aggregation works properly in India, but still half assed CA support, maybe in future we can get other bands combination after update.

Has there been any update on this, i mean on supporting of other combination of bands you mentioned with recent updates?

We set out to clarify technical jargons in simple terms so that average smartphone users can make sense of it all, and be well-informed when buying a smart phone and/or a signal booster kit for it. 4G and LTE are closely-related technologies. However, despite what some people think, and despite the impression some networks try to give – they are not one and the same thing. But then what are the differences, and how much do they matter? The first step in answering these questions is to determine what exactly the two terms mean.
What is 4G?
4G is the 4th Generation of mobile internet connectivity, and refers to mobile internet networks that are able to offer certain speeds. These speed criteria were first defined in 2008, long before they were realistic, as something for mobile networks to aspire to, in developing the next generation of internet connectivity.
On-the-go, a network has to offer peak speeds of no less than 100 Mbps to qualify as 4G. In more stable applications, such as stationary hotspots, peak speeds must reach at least 1Gbps. While these speeds may have been nothing more than future targets when they were first set, new technologies have allowed 4G-compliant networks to be rolled out, and some older 3G networks to be improved to offer 4G speeds. However, even so reliably achieving 4G standards proved a bit more difficult than anticipated, and this is where LTE comes in.
What is LTE?
LTE is 4G – in a sense. It stands for Long Term Evolution, and refers not to a single technology but to the processes, developments, and set of technologies used to try to bring about 4G speeds. As it proved more difficult than expected to actually bring about 4G speeds, regulators decided that LTE networks which offered a significant improvement over 3G speeds would be eligible for labelling as 4G even if they did not meet the speeds originally set as 4G standards.
This was a decision companies were quick to take advantage of, and a lot of the time when your phone claims to have 4G reception it is actually connected to an LTE network. This is 4G in a sense thanks to the regulator's decision, but it isn't true 4G in that it does not really meet 4G speed standards. LTE mobile devices are typically capable of CAT4 speeds (Category 4 speeds) and can reach a theoretical speed of 150 Mbps (Mega-Byte Per Second).
What is LTE+ (or LTE Plus) and LTE-A (or LTE Advanced)
LTE+ and LTE-A are exactly the same - The terms are used interchangeably because some carriers in some countries decided to use one or the other for no particular reason. This technology is basically based on the basic LTE platform discussed above, except that the data transfer speeds are triple or even more faster than LTE.
Availability of Plus or Advanced LTE in mobile equipment (smartphones and tablets) is increasing steadily as more manufacturers are manufacturing their flagship or higher end devices that are capable of it (Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge being a prime example). LTE mobile devices are typically capable of CAT6 speeds (Category 6 speeds) and can reach a theoretical speed of 300 Mbps.
The coverage of Advanced or Plus LTE is also gradually increasing as more cellular service providers such as Verizon, T-Mobile, AT&T, Sprint in USA and Bell, Telus, Rogers in Canada are expanding their coverage offering these incredibly high data transfer speeds outside of major cities in USA and Canada, respectively. North American mobile service providers have started this trend of starting with the largest cities first, and then aggressively building their Advanced or Plus LTE networks to support remaining vast areas of their respective coverage areas within their respective countries.
Do the Differences Matter?
In an everyday sense, the differences probably don't matter very much. Most of our signal boosters are also 4G capable (forward to 5G capable and backward to 2G & 3G compatible) whereas all of our commercial boosters are 5G/ 4G LTE compatible. There is not a hugely noticeable gap in speeds between 4G LTE and true 4G networks, and due to time and location variances, these networks will often offer virtually identical speeds. LTE Advanced or LTE Plus on the other hand, offer considerably faster wireless data transfer speeds which may be very helpful if one performs a lot of Internet activities such as frequent downloads, etc. on their mobile devices using their mobile networks. However, it is important to note that in order to take advantage of those higher speeds, the mobile devices have to be capable of those higher speeds and the cellular provider has to have that Advanced or Plus network available in areas of mobile use.
There can be something of a difference when it comes to buying signal boosting equipment. If you are buying a signal booster or repeater with the intention of extending a type of LTE or 4G reception, for example, then you will probably want the one that has "4G" included in its name or description. We sell 4G signal boosters that are compatible with both true 4G, LTE, and LTE Advanced/ Plus networks so you will be covered for all because they are backward compatible, all the way down to 3G and 2G. Now you know the differences between 4G LTE LTE+ and LTE Advanced!

Wow thank you soo much for the information
i canstill achieve speeds of 120mpbs without high speed LTE however
ATT will ONLY work upto 3g. You will see an H on top the signal bar which indicates a Enhanced 3g speed also know as HSPA speed connection. I have tried 2 new sim cards. I have tried several APN's I have tried all updates and a reset. No 4G and no 5G on ATT. Unless someone can tell me something new, this phone will not FULLY work on ATT. Text works. Calls work. Internet is sort of hit and miss with decent signal but again rather slow.
T Mobile will ONLY work upto 4g. No Volte although it seems to have the capability of Volte it cant not work with Tmobile Volte because it seems the cell bands are not compatible. Text work. Internet works rather fast, Good solid signal however no 5G and no Volte due to incompatible cell bands.
I did research on this subject and found that the ATT cell bands for everything including 5G do seem to be compatible with the 7 pro but again, it does not FULLY work oddly
I also did research on Tmobile cell bands and the bands for 5G are not even close to being compatible. Volte is also non compatible. 4g is compatible and works..
That is disappointing to hear as I have been looking into this phone and assumed it would have full usage on ATT.

Hello,
I have a brand new s21 5g wothout a 5g contract.
I'd like to scan the network searching for 5g availability around me and I often saw here screenshot with
Network name - 5g
Network name - 4g
etc.
The basic scan of the s21 doesn't do that. Can you suggest me an app or something? I use netmonster but it show only the connected cells and, as I said, I have no 5g contract so no connection.
Thanks!
