Question Does Network Signal Guru display the QCI? - Google Pixel 6

I test prepaid plans and part of that process involves checking the QCI. I know that Exynos modems have limitations that Snapdragon ones don't. My Pixel 3 XL unfortunately is not supported for NSG and if I can test this with a 6, I'll definitely upgrade. Can someone who has root run NSG and see if it shows the QCI? I believe it normally shows on the second screen you can swipe to. The QCI is your network priority designation which basically tells you if your plan is deprioritized or not so it's valuable information for prepaid customers to have when evaluating if a plan is good for them.
Here's an example of what the page looks like.

Thank you very much!
Did you have to do anything special to get it working or just stock with root?

I am running stock rooted with Magisk since Google doesn't support VoLTE/VoWiFi in my country and I need to go via this route to have a complete phone...
By the way, how would you rate my QCI rating being at 5? Is this good/bad/average?
Thank you!

Awesome, it's great to hear it works without needing custom ROM or kernel because my 3 XL it doesn't work even with a custom ROM or kernel.
That page is actually reading the IMS QCI, I believe you need to swipe one screen left to get your data QCI. Data QCI runs from 6-9 under the standard model we use in the states with 6 being the highest priority and 9 being the lowest. I would imagine that this is universal since it's actually a 3GPP standard.

@mightyvenom So I actually just went and looked and it should be showing on that same page. I read in another thread that there is an issue if DSDS is turned on that NSG can get confused. If you disable it in *#*#4636#*#* and try again, does it show you the info?
It would be strange to not be able to read the QCI of the data APN but it's only seeing the IMS APN for some reason.

I just checked and DSDS is already disabled by default....while there is another option "Cbrs Data" enabled by default.
Does this help somewhat?
PS: I checked the other screens in NSG and there is no other info on this QCI parameter.

Hmmm I wonder if it's your carrier's settings.
I asked in this thread to see if there is something that can be done to fix it - https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-for-the-pixel-6-exynos.4380231/post-86325917

You would need to perform a new attach while NSG is running in order to see the QCI for default bearer. Just toggle airplane mode.

Rooted on Jan update won't boot... Uninstalled and reinstalled the app... Anyone have a work around for this issue?

[Q] Tmobile S5 on AT&T

I bought a pre-owned T-mobile S5 to use on AT&T. I've sim-unlocked it, rooted it, installed CM12 on it. However I keep losing service. This is NOT an AT&T issue, as the tablet sitting next to it is on AT&T and works flawlessly. Do I need to flash a new modem? Or do something else to make this work closer to flawlessly? I already searched the forums and couldn't find anyone with my problem.
Thanks in advance.
Possibly you have to edit the APN settings. I did a small thread on what you need to do to use a Tmobile s5 on AT&T:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s5/help/tips-using-g900t-att-t2975336
Thanks, I assume when I inserted the sim card, the APN info was loaded, as I've not touched that part, and it's already on my phone. That doesn't seem to be my issue. Any other suggestions?
I've been having the same issue for months. I went back to a stock rom and recently came back to AOSP, but I forgot I was having constant signal drop.

I am having the same issue. Can you tell me what modem/rom are working the best for you? Thanks!
Solution!
My particular solution does require xposed and gravity box module.
I noticed that the cell signal issues only happen when I'm connected to WiFi.
I created a tasker profile that toggles mobile data off when wifi is on and changes the data mode to 3G only. I used the toggle data 5.0 plugin (see for details) in tasker to toggle to change to 3G.

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I then used the gravity box "change network type" action (see for details) to change network back to LTE and I used the toggle data 5.0 plugin to turn data back on when WiFi is disconnected. I guess this would be the end task?
I took a screenshot a couple hours ago of the result. Not one signal drop in 3 or so hours. I'm no expert in tasker, and these are the exact steps I followed.
I was having a similar issue with CM12.1 on AT&T using the G900T I actually posted on their forums about it: http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/106617-lte-issues-cm12-tmobile/ however it looks like they're has been any resolution..I had no issues running stock, and when I installed BlissPop (CM Based) I had no issues at all.
Thanks for the suggestions. I will try them out.

No you have to edit the Apn often times.

Device May be Monitored

Does anyone have any idea what this means? Or have it on their devices? I factory reset the tablet when I got it, so I can't think there'd be anything wrong with it from that perspective. My guess it has something to do with the user profiles being messed up or something. It's just a little message that sits right beneath my Quick Toggle tiles.

It's because you enabled my xperia so your able to track where your device is ?

Nope! Just checked in Security->My Xperia, and it hasn't been activated, and in Device Administrators, it is unchecked! :/

check out the Proxy Setting and VPN
if nothing set ask your operator about it
:good:
I got the same notification last night, with the same "null". I don't have a SIM-card in my Z4 tablet and every other device works fine in the WLAN, so I guess I won't have to worry.. (?)

No Proxy settings or VPN active... And I would like to contact my operator or the distributor, but I got it shipped from Hong Kong, so I doubt they have anyone that speaks much English, and I only know a little Mandarin.

Maybe that's the cause of it. I never put a SIM into my Xperia Z4 either. I'll try taking my SIM out of my phone and sticking it in there later tn and see if that does anything.
I synced my work account with the email app and also have this msg.
I have the same message after 1 week of using on the WiFi version SGP712

How To Guide Set Preferred Network Mode through Hidden Menu

Since the common hidden menu code does not work on our device ( *#*#4636#*#* ), there is another way we must use.
1. Download this app from the Play Store: Force LTE Only (4G/5G)
2. Launch app and choose "METHOD3: (Android 11)"
3. Under Set Preferred Network Type dropdown, select the network type you want.
-- to get 4G/LTE and below, set to "LTE/TDSCDMA/CDMA/EvDo/GSM/WCDMA"
-- to get 5G, set to "NR/LTE/TDSCDMA/CDMA/EvDo/GSM/WCDMA"
This was the only way to enable 5G for me since I am in Canada.
Only issue with this is that it may not stick once you reboot. You would have to follow these steps again.
Thanks man. This helped me with my Global variant. It got 5g to kick on when I couldn't see it in the menus.
Update - Found the shortcut keys to get directly to it
*#*#4636#*#*

It didn't work on mine. When I punch in the final *, it just goes to my contact list.
Although the app ForceLTE mentioned earlier by TikiThePug did work perfectly.
I finally get 5G all day long on a T-Mo SIM.
It's such a fast, beautiful phone and now it has all its functionality.

Hey I just started using Verizon coming from Fi. I have an unlocked.pixel 6 from the Google store what should my settings be? I know I need NR but what else or what would work best. I'm on new York it that matters at all.
And I can get to the menu via *#*#4636#*#* I just need to know what would work best for me .
I keep trying to set to NR/LTE/TDSCDMA/GSM/WCDMA ( Only way to get full speed on 5G
for some reason my setting keep resetting to NL/LTE/GSM/WCDMA (Very slow as if running 3G but says 5G)
How do I get my setting to stick Oh I'm on T-Mobile Network

It's always going to set to what your network tells

Question How to activate VOLTE?

Hi,
Some users have the VOLTE option in sim card settings. It should be under or above "data roaming" option.
However, the VOLTE option is missing for me. When I make calls, it drops to 3g service. I am using t-mobile in USA so VOLTE should be working and supported. My concern is that t-mobile plans to block devices without VOLTE in April 2022, so if i cannot figure it out, i would have to sell the device
Any ideas how to activate it?
I suggest 3 things. Had this issue (but not in US) and these helped VOLTE show up again. Try them in this order and if VOLTE shows up, great, no need to do the rest.
First thing:
Go to "Developer options" and set "5G Network Mode" to "NSA + SA Mode".
May help depending on ISP setup. No clue what TMOB is up to. This allows maximum compatibility, but MAY drain battery faster -- I don't know the full impact of this setting. Note that it often reverts to "default" when rebooting.
Second thing:
Settings > SIM card & mobile data > (pick active SIM card) > toggle 5G off then on again
(On this page I previously had VOLTE option, but it mysteriously disappeared)
Third thing:
1) remove SIM card(s)
2) reboot phone
3) reinsert SIM card(s)
4) reboot phone
Depending on country, sometimes carriers/towers aren't super reliable.
Good luck!
Hey thanks for the suggestions.
First thing: When I go to developer options, that 5g option is greyed out for me. I cannot select it.
Second thing: I only have 4/3g/2G toggle. I did download an app called "force LTE" which activates 5G.
Third Thing; Didn't work.
Thanks for trying to help me. Are you in USA by any chance?
Hi,
I don't think this will work for you, since you don't have this option
How to navigate the VoLTE feature in your realme devices? - realme (India)
VoLTE feature,VoLTE function
www.realme.com
Maybe try to update to the latest rom or reinstall it.
And if still not working you have to contact realme technical support.
Don't know whether it's because the change of 5G Network Mode. The LTE icon doesn't show up, but I do notice the voices in phone calls are louder and clearer.
Does the HD1 icon mean volte?
Propably HD Voice
Well, not in the US but I boot the phone, updated it to last one, reboot. So I didn't check that option since the beginning but I can see it under the SIMcard setting.
I didn't go in dev or else.
My second sim doesn't have that option though.
Hope you fixed it with an update.

Damn, sorry pal. I really hoped that would work for you.
Can you try borrowing a family member/friend's SIM card for 5 mins from their phone and seeing if LTE is greyed out with their card too? If so you can assume it's the phone and not ISP that's being weird...
And nah, I haven't lived in the US in years!

Question SIM Manager Restricted Selections

My apologies if this is posted somewhere else. I’ve searched and could not find it, but I may be using the wrong words!
In the SIM Manager, some phones (International, maybe?) there is the option to assign services to each SIM. In mine there is not. It’s one SIM or the other at a time for everything. It’s a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra configured for Spectrum (CHA).
Is this function disabling coming from Samsung’s programming? Spectrum’s? (I've gotten an inkling from what I've found so far it has to do with the CSC.) And of course the big question- Is there any way to change it without risking a phone’s stability? I just want to be able to use my home SIM to be available for calls/texts to my home number and a separate eSIM for data simultaneously while traveling in Europe. Is that too much to ask?
I’ve no experience flashing phone firmware and it’s a brand new phone, so I’m terrified of bricking it.
Unfortunately the US models don't have that feature and you can't flash foreign firmware to it either.

Thanks for the rec. It looks like a great app for taking band selection into your own hands. But it does not give you the SIM Manager functionality to select services per SIM, unless I'm missing something?
I know if you have 2 e-sims you can not do this

Thank you! That worked!
It's definitely glitched. It doesn't show the names of the networks on the eSIMs. Tapping on the one that said Active though and then tapping the SMS preference and choosing the option with a blank label worked.
Now when I send SMS messages I won't have to remember to flip the stupid toggle to avoid texting from my Boost number.
Too bad it didn't also change the RCS number from Boost to Tello but I can live without RCS.

Good to know. But I have one SIM, and the second would be an eSIM. I tried and then removed one when my attempts didn't work. If I see a possible solution, it's worth buying another to test.

The workaround works. Are you sure you hit the more network settings button? I successfully was able to select defaults for my pSIM and eSIM.
