[ZTE Blade V8 Pro Questions & Answers] CCHIPSS:
I am helping a friend who uses Freedom Mobile in Canada to find a new phone. We bought the ZTE Blade V8 Pro. The phone arrived and the phone picked up the 4G LTE internet. It also works in streaming videos over LTE on Freedom. So internet works. Texting also works.

However her phone was not able to make nor receive any phone calls. I tried clearing the cache and resetting the phone, but the problem persists.

I tried to manually set the APN settings. No luck.

I tried to search for the networks. I was only able to see Home 4G. But there is no Home 3G. Is this why the internet LTE works, but not phone calls?

What is going on here? GsmArena said this phone is fully 3G 1700 AWS compatible.

https://www.gsmarena.com/zte_blade_v8_pro-8504.php

2G bands	GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 - SIM 1 & SIM 2

3G bands	HSDPA 850 / 1700(AWS) / 1900 / 2100

4G bands	LTE band 2(1900), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 7(2600), 12(700)

Even ZTE's website says the same thing. :(

https://www.zteusa.com/blade/

MODES

GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz

UMTS: 850/1900/AWS/2100 MHz

LTE: B2/B4/B5/B7/B12

Freedom's website also said both IMEI numbers are compatible, on the IMEI check. (This phone has 2 IMEI's.)

https://www.freedommobile.ca/plans-and-devices/bring-your-own-device-to-freedom1

Your phone is compatible.

If your phone is unlocked you can get started by signing up for a plan today!

The following network services will be supported:

HSPA+

LTE Advanced

Please note: Certain versions of older handsets may not have the ability to select the ‘LTE Preferred’ in the phone Network Mode settings even if the hardware supports the particular band. These handsets will not be able to connect to any LTE network.

See Coverage Map

Phone Information:

IMEI number: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Brand name: ZTE

Model name: Z978
[ZTE Blade V8 Pro Questions & Answers] redspeed:
Could be an issue with VOLTE not being supported on that carrier. If data and text works but not voice Im guessing theyre in an area only covered by a certain band.
[ZTE Blade V8 Pro Questions & Answers] CCHIPSS:
An update: My friend switched to Chatr.

She went to a Freedom booth. The Rep told her that just because it is listed as compatible on the Freedom Website, it doesn't mean that phone is fully compatible. In the case it only works with Freedom 4G and not 3G. And Freedom 3G is required for calls. 4G is only for internet and text.

My friend obviously was upset. Firstly this phone is supposed to be fully AWS 3G 1700/2100 compatible. All our research shows that it is. I am not sure if this is ZTE mis-advertising, or Freedom has compatibility issues even within their own AWS 3G. Secondly when a phone is listed as compatible on Freedom's website, it better be fully compatible.

This is BS on many levels. And I say this as a fan of Freedom.

She went right over to Chatr and switched to their $40 for 2.5GB plan.

Either way if you are a Freedom user, I say stay away from the ZTE Blade V8 Pro. It probably won't work.

In the future get a popular phone with lots of people saying "Yes it works" before buying a phone for Freedom.

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] MrColdbird:
I'm not a big MIUI fan but until the initial 72 hours go by I'm stuck with it... However that doesn't stop me from looking into all kind of AOSP ROMs.

I know that I'll have to test and try them all myself, but I'm curious what all of you are using and why.

My biggest focus is definitely battery life (screen time more so than standby) and I'd love it if any of you could give me numbers on this as well.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] alose:
Resurrection remix, OmniROM, and LineageOS all share code trees. The differences between them should rally just be the minor feature set differences. I personally use LineageOS, but that is just because I like Lineage.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] Wahoux:
RR from Arasthel is awesome, just very very bad battery life.

OmiRom, not as smooth as MIUI, but better battery life than RR (but slightly less than MIUI)
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] MrColdbird:
Funny you mention smoothness compared to MIUI.

I find MIUI to be a laggy mess.

So.. it seems Omni is the place to be for battery life?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] CrazyBeaver2377:
Definitely go Omni, you won't be disappointed.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] Mackay53:
They're all pretty much the same, Battery life is subjective.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] papavales:
is your device full or has 100 apps running at the background? Miui is very very smooth. If your phone is clean then something wrong is going on with your miui. Some people complained for problems after ota update. A clean install solve the problem.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] ang3l:
To add to what [MENTION=3902018]papavales[/MENTION] is saying, check what apps have autostart enabled. Great feature from MIUI that gives you great control over resource hungry apps.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] yanokashi:
I've swtiched from MIUI to Omni weekly builds and Im surprised how good this ROM is. I find xiaomi.eu laggy like hell last time...
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] MrColdbird:
Had some time to run the battery through its paces yet? Debating on whether I should go with official or unofficial builds here.

Official would mean hassle-free OTA, but unofficial (judging from the changelog) seems to be better tweaked for our device?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] yanokashi:
In my opinion WEEKLY are better, but thats mine. More stable and in my example more smooth (?)
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] MrColdbird:
I've settled for unofficial lineage os for the time being (now that I'm unlocked I need to try them all) and I'm just so happy to be back on AOSP after being forced to endure MIUI for three days waiting on the unlock permission...

The recent screen and notification shade on that thing just kill it for me.

Back in MIUI 4 and 5 they still rocked more or less clean versions of these but everything that came after just ruined it for me.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Pisolo:
I purchased a new H930 NO BRAND and I find it difficult to do the unlocking of the Bootloader with the usual procedure. Arrived with already installed Oreo and I tried to move to Nougat, nothing to do.

Keep in mind that the other TIM H930 had no problem receiving the file unlock.bin and unlocking the Bootloader.

Some advice...???

Thank you.

EDIT:

The problem is solved.

To receive the unlock.bin file from LG, you need to create an account for each individual H930.

Nothing is received using the account of the previous H930.

[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] BlueCalex:
So basically i'm pretty sure my P9 is dying

The phone has been freezing and dying at anything from 20%-30% still left, but when i go to turn the phone on its completely dead, at 0% and wont make it past the splash screen.

When i plug my phone in to charge it after its died, it starts charging at 40%-50%, its completely unpredictable.

If anyone could help me out that would be great,

Thanks in Advance
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] furkey:
I am struggling with this issue too.

One obvious problem causing that issue the dying battery. The older the battery gets, the lesser its capacity. There is no turning back from it. Everything is born, lives and dies; and the cell phone batteries are no exception.

So since we cannot fix that, one might want to see at least the indicator showing the battery level correctly, so he/she do not encounter unwanted situations. To achieve that, you might want to simply calibrate your battery. There is plenty of ways to do this. Look it up, it's everywhere on internet. There is no guarantee it will work %100 perfectly but hey, that's at least something to do!

Lost IMEI and Baseband on your U Pro.

lets search for a solution.

forword:

if we flash the 2080227 stock rom we will lose the IMEI and Baseband information in Settings.

the IMEI and Baseband is still there its just that it dont show in settings anymore.

Why:

stock rom 20180227 contains all images of the official Stock Rom as dump.

also modemst1.img and modemst2.img. in that images are the imei information stored.

baseband information is stored in fsg.img

but why it dont restore also the imei info in settings ? maybe its region related. we dont know that yet.

lets Discuss and find a Solution/fix for that
[Android General] skeleton1911:
reserved

here i will post the possible solution ..............

1.

This will restore the IMEI numbers into settings for slot 1.

Slot1 and slot2 will be similar then.

1. Install xposed manager APK. You have to have root for that.

https://xposed-installer.de.uptodown.com/android

2. Download in the app framework v90.beta3 and install it ( all in the app)

3. Download this app from playstore (IMEI changer)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vivek.imeichanger

4. Your imei is written on your u pro box back cover.

Enter the IMEI in the app. Save it and reboot.

Done!

unfortunetly if xposed is uninstall imei is lost again
[Android General] skeleton1911:

For me without any changings the IMEI isn't gone. With *#06# I see two IMEI

I'm on eragon 4 but I've had to make a factory reset after update from 3 to 4 (there were some problems like system settings not working)
[Android General] gllark:
I guess the problem of losing the IMEI was caused if someone flashed the stock rom 0227. It was overwriting modemst 1 and 2 where the IMEIs are stored. Eragon doesn't do that.
[Android General] xdaONLINEuser:
I have found appropriate tools (also via xda), which perfectly fulfill the task...

QUALCOMM smartphone write IMEI tool 1.01

QMSL IMEI and SN writer 1.4

But apparently the tools do not support the chipset, or I have not yet found a way to use the tools accordingly.

If someone has experience with these tools…

Thanks in Advance ;)
[Android General] skeleton1911:
Already tested them a few days ago. They don't work.

Feedback of my progress so far:

I use NV ram tool to try to restore IMEI.

I was able to build IMEI but it did not flashed it because of a driver (diagnostic mode) problem.

I just have to find the right driver. Lol.

Sound funny , but I have around 100 different diagnostic drivers for Qualcomm devices.. one is the right one I hope ....

Been looking through XDA threads hoping to get some ideas on missing IMEI thing. I'm also trying to run a NV Backup using the QFIL program and up to now I wasn't able to do that, the blue 'start' button was always disabled(diagonal gray stripes) with the COM port and diag driver ON. I think, the problem is related to the lack of IMEI/ESN etc.., because today I hooked up my spare Moto G4 Play and got the NV bckp from it. Then, after that, I actually had a little success with Upro, I used the same diag driver which poped-up with Moto, HS-USB 9091 (instead of 900D), it's also a Qualcomm driver, found it on my desktop(uncheck: show compatible drivers to see it) Not a total success but, at least I could start the bckp. It failed, still, I've never gotten this far. Can you try and see if you're able to get the NV backup w/o IMEI#?

Is there a way to somehow convert to text the .qcn files? How about editing it, if that's possible then the imei could be written into saved files and fed back into the phone using 'restore'. Just saying, am clueless on that.

Ok, here is that link from another XDA thread and you'll find two screenshots below:

Are you in diagnostics mode? Which driver # do you see.
[Android General] dewois:
Its a placebo fix or better only a solution for fake/anonymize the IMEI for apps only!

If the provider needs the IMEI to connect to his network it is not working!

With a app on phone you can not bring back the IMEI, its stored in the NVRAM.

You have absolut no write access to this "partiton" on a running system.

for real restoring you must flash it!

Did you try pulling the .qcn files through Qfil >Tools>Qcn BackupRestore? You'd also need the diagnostics mode for that. I've seen on the web some methods with hex. etc to rewrite some LTE bands from that. It's basically the same as QPST. It's all just a theory for me, I don't have IMEI right now and I think that is preventing me from getting the files from Qfil.
