My phone kept switching to edge because the wcdma signal in my area is very low but 3 bars of edge is worse than 1 bar of hsdpa+ (no lte in enterprise al) so I choose wcdma only and I always have signal. You can set preferences or choose certain signals only but be aware if you change to a specific signal only and it's not there you will loose service... If you ever need to reset the settings and can't remember the code removing the sim card and reinstalling it resets back to default.
Here's where I found this I take no credit but I can confirm it works on the at&t version of the One.

I thought I saw it in the user manual. Looking at tech specs, no LTE. I read this thread because I wanted to disable Edge, I would rather have no data connection at that time then the frustration of NOTHING connecting on edge.

Idk it should have something very similar to that menu but I've never had the device so I don't really know.

That menu is disabled on the at&t variant.

This is all I get.
Awesome! I just got mine today (Australian version) and don't have the mobile carrier menu, which I think is ridiculous. This did the trick for me to disable LTE
This is the procedure I have used to disable LTE after finally figuring out that my "missed calls with no notification whatsoever" issue (unless caller leaves a VM) was caused by having LTE enabled. Something to do with the One having to switch to HSDPA for voice and the handoff not working right. Sucks not using LTE but I can't be missing calls....
Works a treat, too bad we have to dive into a Service Menu to choose our network preferences.... Thanks ATT...

How long will this maintain your selected network? I've used this many times on past phones, but carrier settings have frequently reverted the setting automatically. at the least, it will reset itself on boot (which isn't necessarily that big of a deal, unless you're Dev-ing and rebooting frequently.). If rooted, there are a number of ways to be able to easily select your desired connection type and have it stick. glad to hear this has worked for your needs so far.

It will revert back after air plane mode/disabling data and on restarts. I just use the app if I notice I'm on edge which is rare and pretty obvious. This is my first smart phone ever since my htc excaliber windows phone that I haven't run unofficial software on. it's just a great package and I feel I'll deal with more issues rooted than I do stock. Can't wait for 4.3 next week the ONLY thing I miss is battery percentage in notification bar lol
I would like to have WCDMA/GSM (auto), but that option is not present.
I'm guessing WCDMA preferred would do the trick? I currently have GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto but I don't use LTE..

Here's a little trick for anyone that's rooted - If you want to be able get the Preferred network mode list when selecting Settings>Mobile Data>Network Mode, you have to change your sku ID in /system/customize/ACC/default.xml. Using a text editor (I always just use the text editor built in to Root Browser), find
Code:
<item type="integer" name="sku_id">7</item>
almost at the end. 7 is ATT's sku, and gives you things like ATT's Data Icons and lying signal bars, but will also enable the NFC icon in the status bar when it's on and remove the Preferred Network mode from Settings. Changing this to 11 will set it as TMobile - Tmo data icons and other tmo settings (I believe T Mobile has the Preferred Network mode settings as well). Changing it to 42 will set it with WWE device settings, so you'll get generic HTC data icons, signal bars that actually work, network mode settings, etc. Obviously Save and Reboot after making the change.

i want to set my network settings to 2G only, what setting should i use? GSM Auto or GSM Only? Also, does changing these 2G/3G/LTE settings by dialing *#*#4636#*#* have any effect on anything else besides the network mode?

Same here. If you just want to access the network settings you can download an app like "ForceLTE" or similar.
I'm facing the same problem, I am appreciated if anyone have the solution?
Check your carrier and location
Whether you can use VoLTE or not depends on a few things:
* Your location, your account with your carrier, and the model of your phone.
* The carrier, carrier account, location, and phone model of the person you're calling.
* Some carriers support VoLTE only in certain cities or area codes. Contact your carrier to ask about your area and account.

Thanks for your reply, the problem is I have no problem to have VOLTE by using Galaxy S10 with same sim card and I couldn't find the volte "switch" in the oppo UI and couldn't turn on/off. As a result couldn't use the VOLTE function. Therefore I do think it is the firmware problem from Oppo.
I just thinking about if I could flash the official Taiwan rom of same global phone model to my current one for solving the problem. But I'm not sure if it is workable or not.

Ah. I have CPH1919 (UK) and only option is call over Wi-fi. There is also no way to get to the hidden service menu either like in every other phone I've had.
If you know for sure that Taiwan firmware has it, then I suppose, in theory, it would work providing that it is also definitely CPH1919 - any other variant has different partition structure. Be careful. Read around and let us know. Good luck
I have a CPH1919TW, it's using the same global firmware as CPH1919EX (even Oppo TW provides CPH1919EX ROM for download), the phone will ID itself as CPH1919TW.

Hey guys,
neither my Wifi Calling, nor 5G doesnt work on my Redmi K30 Ultra. Not sure whats the deal behind it, maybe its the Mediatek chip or that it doesn't pass Safety Net or that its not made for Europe.
Anyway: Can we hack this somewhere? Maybe modify some props or something and magically make it work?
Thanks so much! <3
More info: I've done the usual stuff like activating Wifi calling, VoLTE and 5G in settings and also disabled carrier check via number code. I also tried all 3 big carriers in germany
Telefonica/O2: Nothing works
Vodafone: LTE "works", it shows an HD icon at the top but Wifi Calling doesnt work and 5G doesnt either. Shows both VoLTE and Wifi Calling as enabled in Phone Info.
Telecom: Nothing works, but it shows in Phone Info that VoLTE and Wifi Calling is enabled.
@Mirardt
Per description the phone supports Wi-Fi calling, VoLTE and LTE, so I think it's not a chipset problem. Carriers will typically sell these data services with smartphones as part of a bundle.
I guess it is a problem with carrier ( data plan chosen ). You can try to contact your carrier and check if everything is correct from there end.
In no case your issue has something to do with SafetyNet API what is an anti-abuse API application developers can implement.

Hey there, yes everything is activated from the side of my carrier and also i spoke with vodafone technical support and they activated everything they could, reset the network etc.
Also both VoLTE and Wifi Calling work on the iPhone with all of the cards. So it has to be something on the phone.

Sometimes they just block per device model (supporting only phones that were certified for their network) and you need to convince them to let you in
Or, you could (again) play with props like ro.product.manufacturer and ro.product.model to pretend you have some fancy Samsung - bcs if it shows enabled in the settings, it's likely blocked at the time of handshaking and negotiating to use the service
It's also possible to capture the UE Capabilites offer (see attachement for my LTE part) and response - I will try to find where was the URL with know-how and instructions

I talked to a vodafone technical support guy and he said that everything is fine and open from their side. Also my phone runs with your fingerprints (Mi9T) for a week or so and it didnt change anything.
Do I understand it correctly, that all the methods you linked there only work with Qualcomm chips? Cause the K30 Ultra does have a Mediatek chip. :cyclops:

If the doc is only about Qualcomm, you will need to Google for e.g. MTK bands UE Capabilities
But MTK was usually more open, people were even able to easily change IMEIs.
There used to be a code for MTK Engineering mode, with options to enable bands and so

Ok do I understand correctly that UE Capabilities are parameters that my devices has that sends information if it can do 5G or VoWifi and so on?
After a bunch of Apps that refused to work with my phone (unknown device not supported) I did found one that looks promising. The problem is that I have only littly orientation and understanding. Can you see what setting might be relevent and maybe if we can get those UE Capabilities changed inside the app?
What I tried is switching the "Entitlement Status" of Wifi Calling on "Enable" (It was disabled as I opened the app), but nothing changed. The Entitlement server is left blank, maybe that could help?
Also I just swapped every possible thing from "false" to "true" inside ePDG Config, but it didnt help so I reseted it.
If you (or anybody else) could have a look and give me some direction I would grind it out myself!
edit: Upload doesn't work on this forum somehow, strange. Here is the Gdrive link.
Ok I just looked through every single option their is, screenshoting everything that seemed relevent.
There is band information that seems like it is what you mentioned and it is editable! @zgfg
Also a couple of other direct mentions of VoLTE, like props in IMS settings.

Very interesting, (as expected) you can control many things on MTK ( too many)
For LTE bands, I think you need bands 1,3,7,20 and you don't need TDD bands.
For 5G, googling tells me that for Germany you need: n1,n3,n28,n78,n258.
Suggesting you to double-check for your operator and enable what's missing and reboot.
B20 might be available in a shopping center, or dense busy district
In the Call* and IMS-Registration* screensots, are all those params enabled or you need to open another screen for each (modes)?
On the IMS, I would put VoLTE to Default, not to CMW500 - seems to be a mode for testing equipment.
Also, you could try SMS over 3GPP or 3GPP2 (that means SMS over IMS but when you register to IMS), but check does it still work over cellular
Last screenshot says that it's not registered to IMS, but seems there are additional settings for IMS authentication (that's about registering to IMS - VoLTE is an IMS service)
I pretty much tried everything out you suggested and it didnt work. Thats why I waited to work on that until I freshly reset my phone with GApps Pico and I did that yesterday. During the Installation process there are 2 question came up:
1. There are Google Carrier Services I can install through play store. No clue what it is, does it matter?
2. I have found multiple interesting sounding apps in system/priv-apps like "engineermode", MtkCapCtrl", "MtkTelecom", "MtkTelephony Assist" and "MtkTeleService", the only one I can find in Apps is "engineermode" and i didn't manage to open it. I tried to install the other apks but it didnt allow it. Anything that might help us?

Tried everything but it made no difference. Also tried IMS test mode on with and without SMS.
Also it keeps saying its not registered in PhoneInformation1.
Should we try to change those numbers in the VOLTE settings to something like this?
Edit: I activated logs telephony logs and somehow got a bug report without even calling somebody. Uploaded it.

wifi calling hardly ever works on foreign phones but my k30 ultra gets 5g on tmobile in my state.
Wifi calling hardly ever works on foreign phones but i get 5g on tmobile in my state , the k30 gets 3 bands that havent been listed , just get a mtk engineering mode app to see what bands you can work with.
The phone is relatively new and since it's not mainstream most carriers don't support it yet. Some people say they have VoLTE enabled and it works but I personally switched to Singapore EX and it seems VoLTE isn't detected at all so I started digging and it seems this issue is present in most Chinese phones. (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-activate-volte-and-vowifi-simple-and-clear.4116051/) In this thread they used the Qualcomm tool and exploit the bug in EngineerMode on OnePlus phones which we don't have an access to and since we can't root or unlock the bootloader we can't modify build.prop or change any system files.
-----Maybe it's my carrier, maybe it's the Singapore ROM so please if VoLTE and VoWifi works for you could you post here which country you're on, which ROM version and if you changed region before or not.------
First a warning: If you aren't tech-savvy, experiencing issues or want to potentially turn your phone in a paper weight do NOT try this at the moment. We do not have the tool to restore your phone back (wiping data might work but idk). You can send your phone to Oppo for repair but you might have to wait for a month or two.
I don't know if you need to unlock your phone from the other thread to have access to this mode(I did have it all decrypted during this test) but in addition to the *#808# engineer mode and *#*#4636#*#*(Where you can check if you have VoLTE enabled) I found we have access to *#36446337#.
In *#36446337# I managed to enter "Protocol test switch" -> "MBN TEST" and switch my profile from Common-Commercial(I think it was this one) to Commercial-DT-VOLTE. The phone rebooted and everything is fine but "MBN Validate" is giving me an error when I run it and I can't test if it works because I'm currently out of the country and my temporary SIM provider doesn't support VoLTE.
It's probably nothing and the error is because of the lack of developer files on the ROM but I need people who can test if these profiles act like the flashing from the Qualcomm tool in the thread mentioned above.
So once again if you don't have VoLTE enabled and are feeling a bit courageous - give it a try.
I think the problem maybe for those that changed to Pakistan build on Android 10 and then switched to Singapore ex to get ColorOS 11 and dual SIM meant that things like VoLTE do not work on those builds.
I did it a different way as wasn't bothered about dual SIM. I was on A.46 UK , waited for EU to get ColorOS11 , then switched to EUEX on sec5 and downloaded ColorOS11 c.57 through Belgium VPN.
VoLTE is working for me. it's not present in SIM settings( WiFi calling is) however when I look at my call log there is a VoLTE HD icon next to all my calls, so is working.
Since being on ColorOS11, I have tried several different regions on SEC tool, EUEX dual SIM, Singapore EX, back to GB CPW to check still works and now back to EUEX. Build number always changes to different region in about phone when I have made any changes and check however VoLTE has always remained working for me and is showing as provisioned in engineer mode.
I am from Germany and have a phone with Vodafone FW originally. I switched region to Singapore EX, than installed the Pakistan FW and got C.5 and C.6 via OTA. I switched the region to EUEX (DUAL SIM) and didn't receive the update to C.57, so I switched back to Singapore EX and got the update to C.57 when using VPN Hongkong, which was quite funny.
VoLTE and Wi-Fi calling is working fine with Vodafone, but you can't toggle it in the hidden service menu, it's just active! You can activate or deactivate Wi-Fi calling in the regular settings, but VoLTE is just there, you can't deactivate it.
Both Wi-Fi calling and VoLTE are shown in the bar on the top. With the former Vodafone FW, VoLTE was not shown with an icon, but it was nevertheless working.
Hy here T-Mobile shown volte and Vodafone don't shows but on the status bar there is the volte symbol

I am in the same boat as you. I rebranded to Singapore to get ColorOS 11 update, to use 2 SIM and Call Recording, along with Theme Store, etc.
While on my previous phone (Xiaomi Mi9) I had VoLTE and VoWiFi and my carrier supports them and my SIM has that activated by my carrier, on Oppo Find X2 Pro it seems for them to work is needed special Modem Profile for the concrete carrier you use.
My Carrier is not listed at MBN Test Menu, I tried all the profiles available there, all Commercial ones and all Volte Branded ones and they are not giving me VoLTE and VoWiFi options available in Menu or VoLTE or VoWiFi functionality.
This method used to work on Xioami and Commercial EU Carriers profiles gave me the VoLTE and VoWiFi functionality with just Activity Shortcut access to this menu on Mi9 and simple dialer code to activate VoLTE and VoWiFi switch in Settings.
Oppo Find X2 Pro is not sold officially in my country and by all carriers here and that is why there is no Carrier Volte Profile for carriers from my country and thus it is not possible to activate VoLTE and VoWiFi with other Carrier Profile from MBN Test Menu.
Maybe if we find a way with a Dialer Code or some menu to activate the VoLTE and VoWiFi switch in Settings first this profiles from MBN Test menu will work...
I am out of ideas for now.

While on my previous phone (Xiaomi Mi9) I had VoLTE and VoWiFi and my carrier supports them and my SIM has that activated by my carrier, on Oppo Find X2 Pro it seems for them to work is needed special Modem Profile for the concrete carrier you use.

I'm pretty sure they force disable most of this stuff with region profiles (/etc/oppoRegion* folders)
At this point I honestly care more about GDPR protection,VoLTE and removing tencent/heytap crap than call recording and theme store which I don't use anyway.
So my plan atm is to wait for Oppo to release android 11 .57 .ozips so that I can flash back to european firmware then I'll see if changing region to EUEX Dual-SIM works and it's limitations.
This method might help people on EU roms with VoLTE, and I'll test it myself in the future, but at least for now *#36446337# lets us adjust MTU, 4G bands and some other smaller network optimizations.
Okay I don't know where to post this but I found *#649010# and this is where it gets into the spooky territory. I never tried toggling any of the options but I think "Full-port switch" option lets us connect our phone to the qualcomm diagnose tool just like the OnePlus phones from the Carrier profiles thread. I'm just documenting this code here so we know we have an alternative to the OnePlus LogKit.apk option in our Oppo phones.

Interesting to find out what these options do.
For some reason, non of these codes work for me now after doing the region change a couple of times.

We keep telling people - you gotta unlock every time you change region and even then the unlock lasts a fixed amount of time ex. 24 hours before it locks itself again

Unfortunately, the tool no longer works for me to unlock, the codes don't work. I'm stuck.

Works for me no issue. Try adding cloudflare dns to your setup, tether your phones connection to your pc while disabling your main connection and adding the number values from the original thread, fiddle with the loopback driver, disable firewall in windows or your router. Everyones connection and setup is different you just gotta find a way to make it work on yours.
Tl;dr it works you just got to tinker with it

Did you have the call recording option right after you switched region? I changed to Singapore Ex right after I got the phone, didn't see that option. Then I upgraded to ColorOS11, still did not find that option.

Do you mean recorder App?
Already given all permission but still no call recording option, and the recorder only has cloud sync on its setting

(base on GSMARENA)
This phone support the following 5G bands:
5G bands 1, 3, 28, 41, 77, 78 SA/NSA
however, my current phone sim need to utilize the Band 40, n257/n258 for 5G,
anyone know how to enable or activate these bands? Is there any MTK engineering software for this purpose?

I'd like to help but I'm not sure if the solution I would use would fit your needs and capabilities.
The (apparently secretly hidden) Android Activity it calls is apparently
com.samsung.android.app.telephonyui.hiddennetworksetting.MainActivityBased on what a free google free ad free gsf free shortcut inspector says
Activity Inspector
Having said that, I can bring up the HIDDEN Activity that allows you to select the bands available on the phone by calling the activity directly.
C:\> adb shell am start -n com.samsung.android.app.telephonyui.hiddennetworksetting.MainActivity
They even make apps that do that for you such as this one.
Network Mode Universal
See my screenshots below for my phone.
Hope this helps.

Thank you very much for your suggestion. I have tried all these and found:
Network mode universal - this is similar to *#*#4636#*#* for phone information.
Shortcut Widgets (+ Inspector), nothing shown in POCO X3Gt for band. it "maybe" work on your Samsung phone. Could not find any band information.
However, when get into *#*#3646633#*#* Developer option, it shows bands as attached photos, the Band 40 is greyed, no possible to enable it.

My response will be in two posts because I don't want to confuse you with the response about "Shortcut Widgets" so I'll take that separately as it's really useful only as a final step.
As for the band B40 being grayed, out, that is a problem.
My only experience with this band selection is on my phone, where nothing that is listed is grayed out. That is, for example, I don't have Band B28 on the phone (AFAIK) but that band is not listed either.
What I have that is listed, as far as I know, can each be checked.
So the fact you can't check a band that is listed, is really, I think, the problem all of the users here have to put our heads together to figure out why that is the case.
I don't know why you can't select Band B40 even though it's listed.
I can only suggest tests you can run to perhaps figure out why.
a. Anyone else with the same phone could run that test for you.
(Let's hope someone with that same phone will see this request.)
b. Maybe you can try one or two other "band selection" apps?
(This would eliminate it being a bug in that specific program.)
c. But the real problem may simply be the phone hardware doesn't support that band.
(I don't know any way around that.)

Ah. I think I figured out what I'm doing differently from you since *#*#4636#*#* doesn't work on my T-Mobile Samsung (we really need someone to test this using the same phone you have!).
My Samsung has its own app from that same outfit I referred you to
Network Mode Samsung
I'm guessing that your "network mode universal" is (maybe) giving you a list of all possible bands but (maybe) not just the bands on your phone alone like my "network mode samsung" is apparently doing for me.
If you can find a network mode app for your specific phone, that may show just the bands you need... but... you already ran the *#*#4636#*#* dial-code to bring up the hidden activity I think... so you may already have seen that the dial-code you gave probably brought up only the bands which are available to you.
Hope this helps. I'm NOT an expert in this. I would hope others with the SAME phone as you have can confirm our suspicions or prove them wrong (better yet).

At this point you don't need Shortcut Widgets + Inspector, as it's only useful to find out what the hidden activity name is, and even then, you only need to know the name if you're going to create your own shortcut to bring it up.
It's useful mainly for HIDDEN activities, because once you know the name of a hidden activity, you can bring it up in a single click if you know what you're doing (you have to create a shortcut to it).
As far as I know, it's the ONLY APP in all of Android that does what it does (although others may exist) so it's a keeper, for sure; but it only tells you what you want to know AFTER you've already brought up the "activity".
An "activity", if you aren't aware of what that is, is kind of sort of like a "pseudo public page" inside any Android app, which can be brought up if you know the unique name of that activity.
There are something like three or four hundred public activities in the Android "Settings" app alone, while most apps have a few dozen or so public activities you can call up directly, which means there are about a thousand or so, which is why you might need an app that tells you what activities are brought up when you do stuff on the phone.
However, if you can ALREADY easily bring up the band-selection activity on your own, you won't need this app to tell you that so I'd ignore it for now. Sorry if I wasted your time.
Appreciate very much for your reply with detail explaination.
I believe this Dimensity 1100 is prebuilt with all bands when sold to each different phone company, however, MTK will price differently base on the the number of bands given (enabled), some companies may sell its phone with lesser bands so to lower its price to make it more competitive.
This problem is hardware problem, so it could only be done with MTK special engineering software or some special code to enable/disable them.
This is just my suspicion, I may be wrong....

I agree.
I hope you find someone with the same phone who can try it to help. Or someone who knows the MTK software. Good luck!
