[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] iunlock:
I think your lack of optimism is obsessive and at fault. What's wrong with being optimistic and having hope? Most of us are just wanting a simple root on the SD variant of the Note 9, whether it be a samfail method or whatever, we'll take it.

The US variant Note 5 was Exynos and worked just fine, so its not impossible for an Exynos equipped phone to work on US carriers. After all, most of the newer phones have a wide range of frequencies that it can support. Sure some phones are set regionally, but you're aware that there are dual SIM phones right?

If you were familiar with the F model Note 8 that some of us got and have tested last year, then my post would have made more sense to you.

Yes it does matter, because with out the ability for the phone to hand off and/or merge the signals, for those in areas where the reception is sketchy, it'd become major headache.

Hey [MENTION=520136]clubtech[/MENTION], thanks for reiterating. Yea that was the case exactly as you've described.... I was getting the same results on TM on the F variant. I'm aware of the fcc filings, but the curiosity stems from the potential possibility...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Techronico:
Is this a possible lead to get CA working on N960F/DS?

https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyS8/comments/75ru94/root_exynos_galaxy_s8_how_to_get_carrier/

I've tried this method but just get these two lines without the menu popping up as instructed.

I am most likely doing something wrong or these devices are somehow further locked down. I'm rooted, connected adb, etc. as the instructions say with no success.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] jgoorn:
Mind sharing more info? I'm willing to try it with my device, I'll make a full backup and give it a go! Anything for even better reception!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Techronico:
I tried using the dialer codes *#0011# and *#2263# first to get an idea of what I was looking at. These are mentioned further down in the Reddit thread by other users.

Apparently the code mentioned in the Reddit thread OP is a more advanced code that was removed/disabled from being activated from the dialer several iterations of Samsung devices ago...(ie. It now requires root, can only be activated from adb or terminal).

My theory is that Samsung has now fully gimped it or further hid the activation method. This method apparently worked on the Note 8...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Interceptor777:
Hey, I'm the author of that thread and I also have an Exynos s9+ which is same as the Note 9.

The menu is indeed completely disabled, you can't get to it even with adb or root.

There is a way to activate it, but it will not fix our issue. I've been trying for weeks.

We have a problem that started out on the Note 8, and that is the phone is not reporting the correct supported aggregation combos to the cell tower.

Using the menu, my phone does not support 4+12 however it reports 2+12 and I get carrier aggregation when I disable B4.

So far j haven't found a way to change those combos. At this point I'm very sure it grabs them from the CSC. I've been experimenting and have been unsuccessful so far

The S8 reported the correct combos out of the box, however the ill configured 3xCA was stopping it from working, disabling 3xCA made 2xCA work perfectly.

Our issue here is just were missing those combos so no matter what the phone will not do 4+12 even though the hardware is fully capable.

If anyone knows how to change combos, pm me or reply here, thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Techronico:
I will totally donate to you if you can get this to work some how! It's pretty much the last feature I'm looking at as a "This phone is perfect except for X".
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] sirgoobs:
How were you able to disable 3CA on your phone? I’ve been trying all the dialer codes but from what I’ve read they’ve been disabled now. I’m trying to help a family member do it on their S9+ because we recently put them on our tmobile plan and I’m sure this would help a lot with the signal/speeds they are getting. 2CA is definitely better than nothing lol. They don’t have root and I don’t know if they are comfortable with rooting their phone so I’m hoping this is achievable without root!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Interceptor777:
Absolutely not doable without root.

Also if you read my whole post, you'll see disabling 3ca on the S9 does nothing and the problem is elsewhere.

Besides, 3ca is fixed on the S9 so even if we fixed the issue, we wouldn't need to disable 3ca.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] VICosPhi:
So I compared my Qualcomm S9+(USA) with Exynos Note 9(Taiwan) on T-mobile LTE, side by side. I am running TekHD's Detonator T-mobile CSC patch on Exynos Note9. Both Exynos and Qualcomm versions showed CA activated during these tests but Exynos wouldn't activate CA as often and quickly as Qualcomm does. Here are the results:

1. In area with 2 to 3 signal bars(RSSI -72) I get 2x the download speeds every time on my USA S9+ due to it switching to LTE+ and use carrier aggregation. Upload speeds are also faster but not by that much. 2. Numbers wise, I got 3Mbps to 12Mbps download and 1.5Mbps to 9Mbps upload on Exynos Note9. On Qualcomm S9+ I got 12Mbps to 24Mbps download and 10Mbps to 12Mbps upload. Both

2. In area with full bars, I got 32Mbps to 60Mbps download and 16Mbps 30Mbps upload speeds on Exynos Note 9 and on my Qualcomm S9+ I got 70 to 90Mbps download and 40 to 60 Mbps upload speeds.

Conclusion: Exynos Note-9 gets roughly half of the LTE speeds on US T-mobile. I think this is because of the non-standard carrier aggregation values that T-mobile uses, just like their non-standard VoLTE. I hope someone finds a workaround to allow the Exynos modem to use the T-mobile network in the same way Qualcomm does.

Hi everyone,

I've bought p20 pro a month ago and I've had no problem since yesterday .

The phone doesn't discover wifi SSIDs except only one.

So in my area I have around 20 wifi but the phone only shows one ssid and adding manual network wont work .

I'd appreciate if you could help to get to the bottom of this. Also I did reset factory the phone but didn't sort out the issue .

Regards

Ben
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] gm007:
So after the factory reset on first boot you couldn't see wifi networks other than 1?

You can try to reflash ur phone's firmware with erecovery,or use hisuite on ur pc and let it do a software recovery.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] benyamin22:
Yes that's correct.

It only shows one ssid after reset factory !

I don't like to flash any rom to be honest just in case there'd be a hardware fault and Huawei them blame it on me by saying you have damaged thr phone by flashing rom and void the warranty
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] gm007:
Erecovery or hisuite will flash the same official rom to ur phone so no modifications involved.

This can fix ur Phone if it's a software issue.

Hello,

I recently aquired a note 9 from French Carrier SFR, the 128gb version.

Without thinking, I flashed the latest PHN firmware from samfirmware downloader using ODIN : N960FXXU1ARH5/N960FOXM1ARGD/N960FXXU1ARGC/N960FXXU1ARH5

All works great but I have lost calls over data (VOWIFI & VOLTE).

So does anybody know how I can redownload the oringal carrier firmware and flash back using odin ?

I have no idea what the region code is for SFR - FRANCE in order to download with samfirmware downloader tool.

Thanks,

2 solutions

1 ,if you want to stay with OXM firmware :

-save all your data

- Go to recovery , HOLD home ( or bixby button ) + Volume up together , and power up

- In recovery , chose factory reset .. This will give a warning and then reset everything

- Choose power off , in the recovery .. you should do this before booting up as your CSC will be configured when you will start

- Power on the phone , wait and . then chose restart to system now when asked

- wait and after reboot , your CSC have change according the sim tray ( XEF )

2 if you want to come back to SFR

SFR CSC is : SFR , but like it's a multi CSC firmware ( OXJ )

after flashing the firmware

-save all your data

- Go to recovery , HOLD home ( or bixby button ) + Volume up together , and power up

- In recovery , chose factory reset .. This will give a warning and then reset everything

- Choose power off , in the recovery .. you should do this before booting up as your CSC will be configured when you will start

- Power on the phone , wait and . then chose restart to system now when asked

- wait and after reboot , your CSC have change according the sim tray ( SFR )

How can I fix this?

[Sony Xperia X Questions & Answers] mbc07:
Unfortunately, that seems a common issue with Xperia X. I bought mine in June 2017, the display didn't show any image retention, not even when hot. In May 2018 I noticed it started to show this issue when the phone was hot, so I sent it to warranty. They replaced the whole mid frame + screen (it seems they treat this as a single part) then sent the phone back to me. After the service, I got no image retention issues, not even when hot. Fast forward to today and I'm now experiencing this temporary image retention again when the phone is hot (but this time it's way less pronounced than before).

My warranty already expired, so I won't bother replacing the screen again since now I would need to pay for the repair and after experiencing exactly the same issue in two different displays I think it's safe to assume the problem would appear again sooner or later if I replaced the screen once more. Fortunately the issue isn't permanent and at least on my case the image retention is very faintly (you need to put brightness at maximum and display a solid gray image to really notice it), and you just need to let the phone cool down for some minutes to make the image retention go away...

I'm not responsible for bricked devices or any other problems!

If you want to remove the backdoor virus this is my proposal:

Install Sophos antivirus from Google Play,

Scan phone system, ther will be one red alert at WIFI Updater system aplication.

Root your phone using KingoRoot.

Install some aplicaton for root exploring, example Root App Deleter.

Deinstall WIFI Updater and/or com.yulong.android.ota or other infected aplicaton.

Restart phone, and enjoy!

Credits go to this thread: ;) http://en.miui.com/thread-3754714-1-1.html ;) and copy the prewritten email and send it to global Xiaomi support!

And participate in the movement, so we can achieve an answer from Xiaomi!!!

"You may have seen my first thread on my email correspondence with Xiaomi customer support and their useless answer here:

http://en.miui.com/thread-3744798-1-1.html

There's an update today with more of the same. I got the other boiler plate about the "server process" and how to "be patient":

>From: service.global service.global@xiaomi.com

>Also, I would request you to kindly wait for some

>Please get in touch with us if you need any further assistance.

I don't think we need "to be patient". We must be polite, but persistent.

So, go and ask Xiaomi for a clear and responsible attitude. If you have the bricked phone problem, don't just spend time on the forums. Send an email to the Xiaomi customer service!

Here is how:

Hi. Thousands of users, including myself {MI ID ______} , are facing the ARB-bricked Xiaomi

phones issue.

There are literally thousands of people with soft-bricked phones due to your poorly announced

and poorly executed ARB decision, which is contrary to Xiaomi's past policies and promises

of hardware openness.

The hottest topics on the MIUI forums are about Xiaomi not addressing the issue.

It is literally a flood. Here are some, and some that have been there for weeks.

http://en.miui.com/thread-3612759-1-1.html

http://en.miui.com/thread-3307173-1-1.html

http://en.miui.com/thread-3495776-1-1.html

http://en.miui.com/thread-3149410-1-1.html

Xiaomi's poor decision bricked thousands of new phones.

Some users did get authorizations, most of us were left hanging.

There are now scammers who post offers to unbrick for money, who ask

people for remote access to their PC and phone. Xiaomi is putting many, many

of its customers at unacceptable risks because of the stubborn refusal to

provide the required access in a timely manner. This is completely unacceptable.

You must not reply with boilerplate excuses, but with a solution.

Please don't stall, and explain your policy and "the server process" fairly to

everyone.

And please authorize my (and everyone else's) account for EDI flashing.
