Setting your phone to the wrong settings so it fails over to 2G will no doubt improve your signal strength no end. But personally I would prefer to get fast internet on the move, and leave your radio settings well alone!

There are apps you can get that are called 'signal boosters' they just work by turning off your phone radio and then on again. If you were not connected to a nearby cell but one farther away this will 'boost your signal' ...

You're probably experiencing either or both of these effects. as well as the 4G effect - which is that if you have a local 4G aerial all the cellphones that can do so will be connecting to that, leaving you free to connect to an empty 3G cell instead with lots of bandwidth. Maybe not what you had planned to do, but actually improving your performance by setting the wrong settings :)
[YotaPhone] Crazyphil01:
Did anyone already find the secret USB menu code to put the device into Modem mode? As the YotaPhone has a Qualcomm processor, this could be used to enable additional LTE bands, which really would help with reception like in [GUIDE] Add all GSM and LTE bands to your phone.

seems cool! We have to test

Hi,

I am much interested in changing the LTE of YD206, has anyone suceed yet on this phone? A tuto would be really awesome! As I am new to android it would definitly help!

[MENTION=4493540]TheArt.[/MENTION] could you eventually translate the post please? My russian is far not good enought and google translated does not make much sens...! Did you succeed modifying the bands?
[YotaPhone] hippy dave:
After all the hassle I just went through to obtain a YD201 instead of a YD206 so I could have Band 20 :)

Great news for YD206 owners anyway, thanks for sharing!
[YotaPhone] borekon:
Me too.

Tried drivers installation with a yd201 (just for take a look about the wifi issue) and they are not compatible.

I guess modifying the inf files would do the trick.

Just did the procedure, can't confirm if it's working on 800MHz B20 yet because I can't find a way to force it or even know if its available in my region from my Network, because I live in the city and they use mostly the 1800MHz, 2G Only works correctly and it seems that somehow it also solves the Proximity Sensor, I will give feedback at how it behaves tomorrow when I will be on the move, but until now everything seems well and smooth, Many Thanks for the persons that worked on the fix, I guess Yota should be hiring!

[YotaPhone] Miroslav1999:
Hello,

I am from Bosnia and got Yotaphone 2 from China (YD206) and installed latest RU software 1.132, but I noticed that my phone only works in big cities. As soon as I leave for the countryside, there is no signal/service.

Is there another version of software I can try to upgrade to, to get these bands in the countryside as well, or the problem is with the limitation of phone's hardware?

Thanks!
[YotaPhone] borekon:
Whats the coverage in your contry?

Maybe outside big cities there are not mobile connection in the frequency that yotaphone can support
[YotaPhone] Miroslav1999:
GSM : 900 (E-GSM) 1800 (DCS)

UMTS: B1(2100) UMTS B8 (900 GSM)

That is what I found out from google. I am not sure what is the better way to find out what Yota covers and what is available here.

If someone knows please let me know.

If I perhaps flash the phone with EU software rather than RU which I currently have, would that unlock some bands?
[YotaPhone] Cyberdyne:
Can anyone confirm that this is working?

Is it possible to unlock B7 for the YD206 as well (as it is supported by the YD201).

On THIS website they make a comparison between the supported LTE bands:

YD201: B3, B7, B20

YD206: B1, B3, B41

For my provider I need LTE B7 and B20. Should I just add these bands to the others to get B1, B3, B7, B20 and B41 or is it better to only have 3 bands and take B3, B7 and B20 like an original YD201?

EDIT:

OK, I should read everything first! Forget about B7! ;o)

EDIT2:

I can confirm that this hack is working! I only added B20 and it worked! For the first time I have an LTE connection with my YD206!

Thank you so much!

(BTW: I could not start QXDM.exe using admin privileges but it worked without the privileges)
[YotaPhone] queser.info:
at 4 Install drivers for the diagnostical port. - where I cand find those drivers?

because for me at 7

Connect the phone via USB to the PC, in the Device Manager it should pop up as "Android Device" or similar, without a specific driver.

It only find my YotaPhone but has the drivers;

Kedacom USB Device - Android ADB Interface are the only thing that dosen't have the drivers are on.

Can maybe someone post its modded file for Band 20?

I struggle by using the guide on point 7+8 - adding new drivers. My PC tells me I have the newest drivers already. But then I can not follow the guide anymore - because I have the wrong drivers (I suppose).

It seems I have too many fragments from Flashing Nexus, Sony, Samsung, etc. devices on my PC. I do not find a way around.

Please put a modded file here to use Band 20 - it will help me out :)

Thx for your reply.

I used the Laptop of a friend of mine.... worked like a charm. See the attached picture - LTE is working. (I use O2 in Germany - so LTE is crowded and mostly slower than 3G)

i tried the complete latest EU, RU, CN firmware flash on my YD206, also the HybridModem solo radio flashing part (and combinated with mentioned firmwares), but unfortunately didn't unlock the band (at least 2G) i am looking for.

Now i have Android 6 and my YD206 got renamed to YD201 , Baseband is S01_003_4240_RU1_M05, no 2G band

i'm looking for 2G unlocking advice too,

greetings from germany,

but i am in the netherlands using the Tmobile network

i only need for 4G ( or LTE) the

[YotaPhone] Crazyphil01:
"B7" Category Filter

Regarding B7: I also experienced the crashing radio when enabling it in NVRAM. Therefore, I can confirm that simply setting the flag doesn't work. However, I found that QXDM has a category filter called B7 in addition to the LTE filter, where there are several options specific to LTE Band 7. I'm thinking now that maybe the parameters under this filter aren't set correctly for the YD206.

Could someone owning a YD201 (where B7 should work) post all of the settings from this filter so we can compare them to the YD206?

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freestyler912:
Hi All,

I wonder if any of you is able to help me please, I promise a kind donation in case the device works again.

So here's my story I bought a 2nd hand Galaxy s6 device from a store, it worked for about 9 months then it got blocked, I returned it to the store and after lots of arguing he decided to exchange the blocked device for a similar one if I repair the screen I broke, so I paid him another £180.00 to fix both the screen and back cover.

The wanker gave me a phone which looked fresh, I put my sim inside and it worked without any issues whatsoever... for about 30 mins then the sim card was not recognised anymore !! changed sim cards and nothing happened, when I returned back to the shop the IMEI number on the receipt was not matching the IMEI number in the phone, so the prick said that I am lying to him and that this device is not the one he sold to me, without any proof of it, I am now totally screwed.

After putting the device into download mode it shows the model name as: SM-G925X

The MF gave me a LDU, but whats driving me nuts is that it worked for about 30 mins, I made calls from this LDU for less than 30 mins before it stopped reading the sim card !

Now I took it to another store, where the guy completely f it up and got it bricked and now stuck at the samsung logo.

**If anyone could help me to get this device to work again I will be so grateful to you and promise and kind donation.

See if it boots into the recovery mode u just have to do is clear cache and factory reset(in same order) and then try booting the device
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freestyler912:
I am genuinely sorry about the bad language, its just out of frustration. And thank you very much in advance.

I am no longer able to get into recovery mode, I tried flashing various firmwares by removing all the .bin files yet the device is still stuck in boot loop.

I also cant locate the S/N to use the emergency recovery function in Smart switch, last time the device was on the imei number and S/N it had, showed up as a completely different samsung device !

Thanks for your quick reply Calum, no unfortunately am not able to get inside the phone, but I am certain that it does have an antenna because I made calls from it ! it seems like the phone has been bricked, because am still stuck in the bootloop and not able to start it up at all
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] callumbr1:
Have a go at flashing this firmware via odin. Rumour has it that you can flash unbranded G925F firmware onto an LDU. The worse that can happen is odin will fail.

If you need instructions on how quote me and I will get the notification

Thanks mate, I have tried that in the past and it worked through odin but the phone is still stuck at the Samsung logo, I will give it a go one more time though and see what happens
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] callumbr1:
Flash the firmware mate but uncheck auto reboot in odin. Once successful flash boot to recovery and wipe data and cache then reboot. Give that a try
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freestyler912:
Alright so I have given that a go, odin failed to flash the firmware, I tried a different one for th SM-G925F with only the F. Reset Time ticked and it worked, but its still not get into recovery mode, when holding the vol up, home and power it does nothing.
[Android Apps and Games] Williams.Joe:
Hi, everyone, we have developed new app, which could instant stream your photos, videos to your smart TV or DLNA devices.

Here is the app description:

The ONLY one Android app instant stream your phone's photo, music and video over WiFi to DLNA certified devices or applications - including smart TV, DLNA Blu-ray players,XMBC/Kodi, WMP and more.

And also it can browse any certified DLNA media Server, stream them to any other DLNA certified device,also stream to your phone for playing.

Features:

☆ Instant stream your phone's music, photo or video to DLNA devices.

☆ Directly stream any other DLNA Media Server content to DLNA devices.

☆ Stream any DLNA media Server's media files to your phone for playing.

☆ Browse any certified DLNA media server shared media files.

☆ Remote control DLNA media renderers, play/pause/volume +/-.

How To Use:

1), Make sure your phone and DLNA devices at the same network.

2), Make sure DLNA device or DLNA applications start service.

4), Browse it and tap one file, select one media renderer, then you can control it.

Here is the GP link: Necta DLNA
[Android Apps and Games] Wredal:
I downloaded it and tested, here are my 5 cents:

1. Add your app as one of the share options. This way I can open my phone gallery and share a pic to the TV.

2. Just list photos and videos as default when opening local device with an option to browse other locations. I guess most people wish to share something from the gallery, nothing else.

3. When sharing, allow to swipe to another image instead of forcing user to press on-screen keys.

Still thanks for another nice app.

Hi everyone,

I already searched a bit on the web and xda but couldn't find an answer what the "intelligent Wifi switch" in the settings does.

View attachment 3990008

Is it wifi roaming or switching to mobile Internet or something else?

It doesn't seem to be connected to the corresponding dev settings of Android and I haven't seen it on any other android device, yet, so I suppose it's oneplus specific.

I'm using Oxygen OS 4, but I also saw the setting in earlier OS versions.

All credit goes to XDA member guitardedhero. I've had a lot of problems installing V4A in the past, but I've been able to use it and it enhances your sound by a fair margin, if of course, you know how to use it. This method only works for Nougat ROMs like ResurrectionRemix, CM14, etc.

Getting to it, you need :

- Root

- A custom recovery, twrp or cwm

- How to use custom recoveries

- Viper4android zip file.

- ES file explorer or Root explorer (Basically any file explorer with root exploring capabilities)

- Patience.

I am in no way responsible for any damage to your device and I will not be held responsible for the thermonuclear war that may or may not be caused.

I've tested the given procedure on CM14 and ResurrectionRemix and BeanStalk myself.

Instructions :

- Download the "Viper4Android_2.5.0.5_ guitardedhero.zip" from the link below.

- Place it in an accessible location on your phone.

- Reboot to recovery.

- Flash the zip file.

- Turn your phone back on.

- Go to /vendor/etc through ES File Explorer.

- Rename the file "audio_effects.conf" to "audio_effects.conf.bak".

- Open V4A.

- Select to install drivers now.

- Accept prompt for root permissions.

- Insert that patience you collected earlier.

- It'll ask to reboot when it's done. Reboot the device.

- Congratulations. You have successfully installed V4A on your Nougat device.

I am not claiming anything, but the above method worked on 2 of my Motorola Devices running CM14 as well.

Download Link available in the comment.

Thank you.
