I live outside of Indianapolis and am on a weakisk 5G signal 95% of the time. Going deer hunting in southern Indiana I was surprised how much I stayed on 5G. Granted I was on or near a interstate most of the time. When I was out in the sticks was about the only time I was consistently on LTE. I also found the connection to be consistent with my OP8 as to where I could/could not receive a signal. That's on ATT with a unlocked phone.

I'll also add when I first got the phone I was getting some inconsistent results as to signal strength and speeds. That was with the 5-6 year old sim card I transferred to it. Getting a new sim from ATT solved those issues.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] gramicko:
I just recently received my Pixel 6 Pro from AT&T and did a very basic speed test comparison to my existing Pixel 4A 5G at two different sites, rural and city.

I had the phones side by side and would take the SIM out of one phone and install in the other.

Consistently the 4A 5G had higher speeds at least 30% sometimes 50% higher than the P6P. It's not a scientific study but the results speak for themselves. I reset both phones and had them install updates before testing.

I was going to trade in the 4a5G for the $800 upgrade offer from ATT but I don't think I will now. I will try a newer SIM as stated in above post to see if it improves speed.

I am in San Francisco on T-Mobile and live in one of the few locations where there is a hole in 5G service. On the cusp, I teeter between 5G, 4G and 3G when at home. Yes, I am on Wi-Fi when in my flat so this is less an issue.

However, I've turned off 5G altogether because the modem or software refuses to switch from an unusably weak 5G signal before picking up 4G.

This was making my phone unusable when walking around in the city playing Ingress. I was constantly toggling airplane mode to reconnect and by the time I do, the portal I was attempting to destroy have been recharged by the enemy. Google has crossed the line when they start messing with my gaming. ;)

On a positive note, my phone hasn't been snatched out of my hand by thieves so I should be thankful for that. 😂

I mean in UK I saw no one complaining about the s20 5g note 5g etc yet it's an exynos.

But most parts of UK are still space, in my city center is the only place for 5G and only certain parts.

But it's quick

This website seems to already have some carrier aggregation combinations/bands for the Pixel 6 Pro, but it only lists the ones that correspond to a particular mobile phone carrier configuration, i.e. the supported bands that it reports changes whenever you insert a SIM from AT&T, T-Mobile, etc.

4G & 5G Bands, Carrier Aggregation and Dual Connectivity Combinations for Google Pixel 6 Pro (US) (G8V0U)

From what you're telling us, it seems that obtaining the actual hardware capabilities is still pretty elusive.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Shipoftheline:
I had 5G as preferred but not covered that well so noticed battery was being hammered and Carrier Services was runtime of 22hrs 3 minutes so switched back to 4G. It looks like the battery was being drained because this was looking for 5G so much
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] LLStarks:
The December update looks like it could be substantial.

Early indications suggest that NR-CA being added. This means 5G signals can soon be combined. Awaiting further analysis.

This would be a major achievement for the modem.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] jstys92:
Is this something that's had any developments? I've recently verified my setup w/ scat.py and the leaked shannondm with an older s7 but haven't had any luck with the pixel6 yet. Came to the same spot you are in with the serial port being exposed prior to stumbling upon this thread.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] LLStarks:
I had tried scat but wasn't sure of the correct flags. Usually craps out when it scans the port.

With respect to Network Signal Guru, version 4.0.3 was finally published today. There still might be some weirdness in dual sim configurations if the 4.1 alphas are any indication. I've found disabling DSDS in the *#*#4636#*#* menu to be helpful.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] LLStarks:
Looks like Network Signal Guru 4.0.4 now includes 4G band locking for Exynos and Pixel 6. It's pretty crude compared to what I'm used to with Qualcomm but it works.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] LLStarks:
T-Mobile users might like this.

Did some more digging. I thought January only added 2-46-66_n71-n41 aggregation. It looks like T-Mobile turned on NR-CA overall for more towers over the past day or so.

But it looks like the phone can also do 2-66_n71-n41. That means I'm aggregating 2 4G bands and then aggregating 2 5G bands in NSA.

Unfortunately, the NSA aggregation and n71-n41 SA aggregation is prioritizing extremely weak signals and it's not live on every home tower around me.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] MArtyChubbs:
On Verizon, get same performance with LTE and 5g . Nothing special with regular 5g, but hoping 5g C-band will be a big difference over 5g. Expecting C-band to be available tomorrow after the new firmware release. 🤞
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Shipoftheline:
I've now got 5G in my area (mobile router) but my P6P doesn't, network is waiting on Google to certify the device so this phone was mis-sold to me, its clearly not a 5G device until Google switches it on for my network 🤬

Hello guys,

i need your help. Im using latest update of miui12.

After that update, system UI panel was changed from ringtone volume to media panel. (new panel in photo)View attachment 5440449

So if you use volume buttons , you can change media volume not ringtone anymore.

I want back ringtone option, because i'm used to it.

Can someone manage systemui apk to get this back?

Because its taking time to open whole panel just to change rintgone volume.

Thank you

[General Topics] JamesDBartlett3:
Nice write-up! 😀👍

I just finished rooting my Power Armor 13 using your instructions, and now I'm trying to figure out what to do next. My last rooted phone was a OnePlus One (yep, the O.G. 🤣), so I assume a LOT has changed since then.

Two questions for you:

Now that it's rooted, can I re-lock the bootloader to make that stupid "condition orange" bootup message go away, or do I have to keep it unlocked?

I seem to recall reading something a while back about rooted phones not being able to use Google Pay, but that rooting with Magisk can circumvent that limitation. Do you know if this is true, and if so, whether any additional setup is required?
[General Topics] denis9rafael:
Thanks mate! Happy I could help

1. Relocking the bootloader check the link below. Honestly I would not recommend it. Higher chances of messing up the system. It does not affect system functionality and the reboot time are just slightly longer.

How to Relock Bootloader via Fastboot on Android

nerdschalk.com

2. I am unsure but I do not think it is true. I do not use Google Play since I use the patched LuckyPatcher version. Not sure about the forum rules around this app but just do a Google on that the LP version does.
[General Topics] JamesDBartlett3:
There were a couple of steps where I was a little confused (it seemed like there was some "assumed knowledge," which I of course didn't have, since I've been out of the root/ROM game for way too long), but otherwise, it was a nice, straightforward tutorial, which was great. I won't give unsolicited advice, but if you're interested in some constructive criticism on the bits that had me scratching my head, let me know.

Sounds like I should probably just suck it up then. Not really a big deal, since I rarely have to reboot, and the warning message is only there for a few seconds.

Sorry, I must not have been very clear. I was referring to Google PAY, not Google PLAY. Google Pay is the app which uses the NFC chip in the phone to pay for goods and services at retail establishments where contactless payments are supported. It's the Android equivalent of Apple Pay, and I believe Samsung has their own version for their phones, which also works the same way. Basically, most financial/banking apps (and some games) have built-in rooted device detection, and if you try to run them on a rooted device, they'll refuse to work.

Fortunately, with a little research of my own, I found out that Magisk has a feature called MagiskHide, which allows it to evade rooted device detection on a per-app basis. I also found a Magisk Module called MagiskHide Props Config by Didgeridoohan , which opens up more customization possibilities, though I haven't explored that much.

Anyway, after configuring MagiskHide and telling it to hide Magisk from the apps I mentioned, I have successfully tested my primary banking app, and I'll be taking Google Pay for a test run at the grocery store, hopefully this evening.

Hi,

Sorry for the late reply. I never used Google Pay and honestly sometimes I forget it even exists :ROFLMAO: .

Sure send me in a PM all the feedback you have in order to not clutter this thread! I´m always interested in improving myself. Also this was the first post I ever did here. Usually I am just using what other people have done.

I am happy I managed to help someone else for a change. Not that I have any real merit as I only put together info from other sites or threads.

Good day guys..

Love the info and genuine exchange of ideas I am seeing here..

Actually my first time trying to root..got a new ulefone armor 13.

Downloaded all the neccesarry file as mentioned above. But I have a challenge, don't know exactly from where to Copy or get boot/recovery image.

Tried using Mtkdroid to back up and extract the boot image..but got unknown ROM structure as a response,so couldn't scatter files nor go ahead with other steps..Is the any other way to get around this?
[General Topics] denis9rafael:
Hi,

Thanks for your feedback. Boot images for both EU and non EU phone versions are attacked to my first post. Boot images have .img at the end of the file. If you have an EU phone you already have a rooted boot image there.
[General Topics] Otapiapia:
Thanks...But keeps getting stucked on fastbootmode.. don't know the average time it takes to reboot in bootloader..or should I go on with the next commands regardless?
[General Topics] denis9rafael:
On what step do you get stuck? After you flash the boot image, you should get an ok message in the CMD window and then it should allow you to type the next command. After you flash the boot, you need to enter the reboot command in fastboot/adb.

Also remember to flash the vbmeta image first and then the boot image. Otherwise you will get stuck in a reboot loop.
[General Topics] Otapiapia:
After entering the "adb reboot bootloader" command, the phone goes blank, indicating FASTBOOT mode at the down left of the screen and doesn't reboot.
[General Topics] denis9rafael:
Adb reboot bootloader is supposed to bit the phone into fastboot mode. It does not reboot the phone into the OS because then you cannot flash a patch image. After it is in fastboot you continue with the next steps.

After you flash everything the OS reboot command is fastboot reboot.
[General Topics] Otapiapia:
Hi.. thanks for your time.

I carried on with other steps like you said..

But noticed no change nor response after typing the command "fastboot flashing unlock"..

Only saw "waiting for other devices" as a response in the CMD..as couldn't type any command again in the CMD..

Morealso, the phone screen remain blank and stucked in the fastbootmode..

I got it snapped,don't know if it against the rules to post pictures here.

With how your device looks, it appears it is not properly connected. Did you install all the drivers?

Under fastboot devices you should see a message as in the image below.

I will also add the direct image link.

https://www.androidjungles.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ADB-Fastboot-Commands-List.png

Without this, the phone is not properly connected.

Did you unlock the fastboot in developer options as well? It is called there OEM unlock and you need debugging activated in the same place.
[General Topics] Otapiapia:
Thanks..

actually started the whole process afresh, downloaded and installed properly the driver's from the links you provided..Unlocked the OEM bootloader in the developer settings and also allowed for debugging...but couldn't still get past the Fastboot mode /waiting for a device.Once I input the "Fastboot devices" command, the command which you post its link

https://www.androidjungles.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ADB-Fastboot-Commands-List.png

doesn't display either.

Checked device manager..for the status of the Installed driver, says up to date..

But the general info says "this device cannot start" (code 10)
[General Topics] denis9rafael:
Hi, did you do a PC restart? Did you install the drivers manually? It appears there is a problem with the drivers on your PC. They did not install properly.
[General Topics] Otapiapia:
I restarted the PC..and while in fastbootmode..I tried updating the driver manually from the device manager.. Android ADB interface..

Says "windows encountered a problem installing the driver software for your device"

Had to uninstall and reinstall again...Same problem!
[General Topics] denis9rafael:
I think you may need to disable the driver signature verification in Windows 10 before you can install the drivers. Not sure though if that is the case :(.
[General Topics] Otapiapia:
Hi...made progress

But one more thing... should I input the magisk patched file...or StockNONEEAboot.img

My phone is non EU variant..

AND FINALLY ROOTED with no issues..

Used the magisk patched file...

Thanks so much for you support, patience and guidance.

I so much appreciate!! 🤝

Here is a small contribution for the users with Mac and terminal command (I did struggled with that :cool: )

all adb commands should have ./ infront of the posted lines.

That means

./ adb devices

./ adb reboot bootloader

etc etc..

Cheers!
[General Topics] denis9rafael:
Hi,

Sorry for the late reply. I did not get an email notifications for your post. If the phone is non EU, you should have patched the stock image for the non EU version. The already patched image is for EU phones only. Not sure how or IF it affects the phone, but that is the recommended way to go. If you have any issues, you should reflash the non EU patched version.

How did you get your computer to see the phone in fastboot mode? Ive been hitting a wall trying to get the phone to show up after rebooting into fastboot thru adb, ive tried everything else I could find with no luck thus far
[General Topics] benhall847:
I was able to resolve this issue.

1st - Put the phone into fastboot mode & plug it into your computer.

2nd - Go to the Device Manager where you install the drivers.

You should see under "Other Devices" >"Android"

Right click "Android"

'Browse my computer for drivers'

'Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer'

'Next'

'Have disk...'

'Browse...'

Select 'android_winusb.inf' in the fastboot drivers mentioned in OP

Ulefone Power Armor 13 USB Driver for Windows (Official Mobile Driver)

Download the official Ulefone Power Armor 13 USB Driver for your Ulefone Mobile. We also provide all other Ulefone Mobile drivers for free.

gsmusbdriver.com

Click 'Ok'

Select "Android ADB Interface"

"Next"

You will get a warning

Select "Yes"

Done.

You should now be able to proceed with the fastboot commands.

Note - I have to do this EVERYTIME I restart/plug in the phone.

Hi

I wanted to root my phone (it's the Ulefone Power Armor 13).

I first installed all of the ADB and Fastboot drivers on my PC.

and then activated USB debugging.

and unlocked the bootloader in Fastboot mode.

then when the bootloader was unlocked I installed Magisk and patched the stock Boot.img

it worked too.

then I rebooted into Fastboot mode (before that I copied the leased boot img. to my PC.)

then wanted to flash the patched Boot.img on my cell phone

then the message came

failed:

Partition does not exist

What can I do now?

the cell phone works but is still not rooted.

Best regards.

Hi @denis9rafael,

Thank you so much!

I have just rooted my phone on the basis of your description.

There was only a little problem, because in the fastboot mode the device could not be detected.

The problem was with the drivers in Win 10. I could solve it by doing a windows update search for driver updates.

With the latest drivers the phone was detected, and the rooting process went flawlessly.

And again many-many thanks to you! 🥇

Hi Everyone,

I wish to ask a question from who has rooted the Ulefone Power Armour 13.

Did you have any problem with the front camera after rooting?

I have tested my phone before I done the rooting process, and the selfie camera worked as it used to be.

After the root I didn't tested it. I have installed and configured my apps and the phone.

Now, after around two weeks, I wished to make a selfie ( I am not a selfie maniac), but when I switch to the front camera, the whole phone freezed, and after a few secounds, it rebooted itself. The camera app stucked in selfie mode, so when I tried to open it, it freezed immediately. I have done the basic troubleshooting by clearing cache and data of the camera app, than the app started with the useing of the back camera, which is working without problems.

The front camera still giving the same result. In other apps, like facebook messenger, the camera functions didn't work at all. I cannot do photos useing the messengers built in function, and I cannot make a video call too, because it freezes the phone.

Also tried to use other camera apps, but the result was the same.

I need an advise how to solve this problem? May it relate to rooting, or I should search for the problem elsewhere?

I didn't wish to do a factory reset, and start the whole configuring over, but if you cant see other solution, than I will do it.

Thank you in advance!
