Excellent, I will try this method and let you know how it goes. Thanks. :)
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Surfeur-des-Reves:
Hello Guyz,

Have been tinkering recently with trying to tweak my carrier_policy.xml file ( tutorial available here https://mt-tech.fi/en/modify-oneplus-7-pro-5g-8-and-8-pro-nr-lte-a-band-combos/ ) with Notepad++ in order to unlock more / as much as / all 5G bands I could possibly get from my device (CN IN2020).

Anyone has tried yet? It seems I can't manage to get 5G (yet) where I am at the moment (Thailand).

The main Telecom operators claim Oppo X2 can get 5G but they don't know about OP8 Pro... Well, the 2 devices aren't that different in their hardware, are they?

I attached my xml file on this thread.

Any help is more than welcome :)
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] olkitu:
Hi [MENTION=1042515]Surfeur-des-Reves[/MENTION] and nice you have found my site :)

Can you get log from me https://mt-tech.fi/en/how-to-get-4g...droid-phone/#OnePlus,_Oppo_and_RealMe_devices ? Put this Carrier Policy back to your phone and then just reboot. Please collect then logs so then i can confirm 5G support. Also you should able see 5G icon.

Do you have Oppo X2? Can you get log from Oppo device? Same method should work with Oppo too.

OnePlus have carrier policy just allow 5G certain networks. Other networks by default disabled. I don't know much Oppo but there could have similar system or not. It's just different configuration.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Surfeur-des-Reves:
Hello Olkitu,

Thanks for coming back to me regarding this issue with 5G bands on OP8 Pro. Unfortunately, I cannot manage to get the required logs, as it says "cannot get logs" after I finish the process and want to get them. Moreover, I'm sorry, I don't have any Oppo X2...

I'll investigate with Oneplus Thailand and see if they can help me regarding my issue. Thanks for your kind help anyway :)
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] olkitu:
Strange error - do you have SIM-card in? Of course to get logs your phone must be connected to network. Or some reason this logcat doesn't work IN2020 model - it worked fine with other models... Just sad because that was only way i could confirm 5G support without root.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Surfeur-des-Reves:
Sure I have SIM card in my device, and I can get other logs but not this one, unfortunately. I don't know if it's because I'm using a custom kernel (CleanSlate 1.2.0) as well as xXx No-Limits 11.5 Magisk module or if it's some issue that is specific to my IN2020 model... One thing for sure, I am rooted, so if there is any other way for me to get the data you need, just let me know and I'll gladly follow your instructions.

Cheers!
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] olkitu:
Aah that custom kernel could cause this issue. That could be reason why logkit doesn't work. Maybe this kernel doesn't have diag so maybe QPST doesn't work too?
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Surfeur-des-Reves:
QPST works and I could easily get access to the carrier_policy.xml file, through EFS explorer. As you say, the custom kernel might be responsible and developer may have removed some "un-needed" logcats that would slow the CPU down. I will flash another kernel and see if I can get the logs we need, but even if I get them, I've no knowledge of python so I may forward you the log file directly instead, if you're ok with this.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] olkitu:
Yes i'm okay with qdml log file :) With scat there is also possible on fly record logs but it's bit more complicated. Hope get success with another kernel.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] kevkid:
Do these instructions still work? I am in the same boat.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Surfeur-des-Reves:
Well, I have been trying to get those logs using 3 different kernels, with the same result, always the same error after the "log recording process" is finished: "Cannot get log" message. Anyway, it's okay, I can live with 4G+ instead of 5G. If there is any other way, please let me know. Thanks anyway :)
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] olkitu:
Well i think you can get 5G working without logkit... I just was interested about your log and that log is way to confirm you have 5G enabled... Otherwise not easy really... With CellMapper you should of course see 5G details and when it's connected.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Surfeur-des-Reves:
I've actuallyjust been told today by OnePlus Thailand that even though(some of) the 5G bands used by my carrier are compatible with my device OP8 pro, they are in 'testing phase' and it should be activated "by the end of the year".

Might be some bull**** though, hard to know for certain.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] olkitu:
That could be possible. They like to test before enable 5G - i think about same as VoLTE/VoWIFI... But atleast we have hack to enable it manually...
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] ecompton59:
root or no root settings database editor like in pics or activity launcher so you can enable bands is easy way
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] kevkid:
Can you please explain? I tried it and can't save the value
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] ecompton59:
did you change from T-Mobile or eu to global if you're not rooted it may have issue sticking i enabled cbrs and changed rat to 20,19 i hit 200mbps been testing network hacks for speed I started at 20-40 and could only use 4g had to turn 5g off us why i had to try stuff
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Surfeur-des-Reves:
Installed SetEdit but couldn't manage to get my modified settings saved, would definitely not survive a reboot anyway. About Launcher Activity, here is what I'm getting through RFToolkit:

https://imgur.com/7alNgsd

This is for the IN2020 Global phone. Wonder how to activate the 5G bands that are shown at the bottom of picture...
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Dezzmond99:
I'm also in Thailand and using AIS but my device is IN2023 purchased from AIS Store , are you on AIS as well? I have also tried editing the carrier policy and tried many different ones, but the most I could get was seeing this 5G DCNR Restricted(EPS Feature) = True in Cellmapper app. Also I have contacted both AIS and Oneplus and got the same reply as you did. I can't understand why they cannot enable it for Oneplus when they support Oppo Find X2 Pro.

---------- Post added at 10:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:26 AM ----------

I couldn't save the settings as well, just resets everytime you close and reopen the app, and my RFToolkit also doesnt have any NR bands ticked.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Surfeur-des-Reves:
I am on True. I wish I could help more, but for now, I decided to go with their (already fast) 4G+. If any future update brings 5G here, it should and will be without modifying the carrier files or tweaking our phone.

By the way, are you also affected by the thermal throttling on your phone too?
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Dezzmond99:
Yes, I was also waiting for them to bring it officially, but since its gonna take time, thats why i decided to play around with the carrier policy file as well.

And yes, my phone does heat up more than usual at times, most of the times when its on mobile data, and also during sunny outdoor conditions using camera etc brings up the overheating warning. But since the latest update 10.5.11 AA , I didn't experience this yet, but I'm not sure yet if they have brought some fixes or not since its too soon to tell. I don't have any thermal throttling when playing games though.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Dezzmond99:
After a lot of searching in Oneplus thai community pages, I have found out that both AIS and True in Thailand only operates 5g in the n41 band (2600) at the moment. So in my case, I need to wait till they bring the 700hz band or till the auction of 3500hz band at the end of this year or next since my device IN2023 doesnt have the n41 band.

In your case, the Chinese device supports n41 band, but still not supported in Thailand somehow from the posts I have read. Have you tried this USSD code(*555*2#) for activating 5G in True?
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Surfeur-des-Reves:
I tried, but unfortunately, I only get a message saying that my SIM is 4G/5G compatible, but my phone isn't. I ordered the Chinese version, knowing that it had the N41 band right out of the box, but it's a pity to see that either True or OnePlus is doing nothing to help much.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] brmbjn:
Must rooted ?
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Surfeur-des-Reves:
Rooted for? Unlocking missing bands? Then no, but even if you tweak your carrier xml file, it seems to have no effect if your local provider doesn't support your device yet. Might be different from one provider to another though, I can't confirm.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Dezzmond99:
Ahh, same message i get for AIS, as a last resource maybe you could also try the new Android 11 DP2 which got 5G enabled by default with options for 5G as well. I tried it anyway recently, but didn't work for me since I don't have the n41 band i guess.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Surfeur-des-Reves:
Well, at the moment, I can live without 5G. Upgrading to Android 11 without being able to root it, given my personal use, would actually be a serious downgrade to me, so I'll pass. I'll keep checking with True when they intend to support 5G on this device, from time to time.

I have OPPO a5s device that supports project treble and I want to install Havoc OS GSI on it.

Can I flash GSI to system partition directly?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vijay399:
Yes

Yes You can Use SP Flash tool on OPPO but Do at your Own Risk then Can Brick your Phone
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robneymcplum:
yes, flash full stock rom and reboot and setup

add the gsi (renamed to system.img) into the stock rom folder (rename stock system.img to systemBAK.img)

turn phone off and flash as normal, it should boot into havoc, might take a bit longer than usual.

If you have no TWRP or custom recovery you cant flash Gapps so hopefully your havoc has those inbuilt

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] thatspokethu:
I have a Redmi Note 7 (lavender) that when removing some bloatwares it ended up getting stuck in fastboot mode. It is (or was) rooted, has TWRP Recovery and the Bootloader is unlocked. Can I flash the stock rom (fastboot rom) on it using MiFlash Tools? I tried to use a Wipe Data / Format Data by TWRP but it didn't work and searching only found the solution to use MiTools.

Is it possible to flash another rom on it the way it is (stucked in fastboot mode)?

Thank you

sorry for the english :p
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] DarthJabba9:
Just flash the full ROM again with your recovery. It shouldn't require a fastboot ROM, although that would also solve the problem.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] thatspokethu:
Can you recommend any recovery files? I only remember that MIUI was 11.03.6 Global. I dind't make a backup or any kind like that. The only ROM files that I had on my PC was LineageOS (I pretend to flash it on my phone - it's possible to do that on this moment?)

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] 7mada:
Hello!

I've read that there are two display manufacturers tianma and huaxing So which is the better one and how can I tell before buying the device?
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] ZeA_Quin:
From what ive read from a 9s/pro facebook group, most of the screen bleeding issues is with huaxing panel. I personally have tianma display, it has no bleeding and retention (as of now) but it does have some shadowing around the notch. And you cant tell what display you will have have unless you opened and checked it through engineering mode, its most likely a lottery really.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] blowy666:

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] vicl89:
I have huaxing panel with no issues. There's no bleeding even if I put my screen on black. But thanks for asking!

Better to know it beforehand than to cry about it later.

If only your display misbehaves, you'd feel the real pain of getting a faulty display of previous Redmi and Poco F1 owners :crying:
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] 1812CE:
My Redmi Note 7 had Tianma panel and it was really bad... Keyboard with lag and a lot of screen retention/burn. Now my Redmi Note 9 Pro (max, 6/64, 64 megapixels) have Huaxing and that problems are not present, by the moment.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] Madhuvrata:
But in YouTube you can see many videos with redmi Note 9 pro speaking about burn ins, ghost touches, etc. Typical tianma disease. For now maybe not many (?) users get this problems, but how these screens behave over time? Is screen from Indian unit (9 pro) different then from global (9s)? I can see more Indians completing. And trust me, they don't complain without good reason :)

I have one week to decide either to buy this phone or not. I would really like to believe that everything will be fine etc, but I've almost lost the hope

what precisely happens when you connect to the PC, allow USB connections in AS/MDC, and let the phone enter bootloader however it does? i can just flash a rom from there, but i won't (iirc) get any reports of as recognising the device...
