[Google Pixel 6 Pro] reas0n:
No one figured out yet or simply don't want to.. For now we only have VoLTE by changing some build.prop parameters with Magisk module.

I was wondering... @Freak07 you seem to be a cool dude who eagerly supports the Pixel 6, maybe you would have any idea about it?

My carrier (Orange Poland) uses same 5G band and frequency as officially supported one (Magenta Austria) and I can't use 5G anyway..

On Pixel 5 it was simple because of QPST tool, with Tensor we are doomed

Another idea is to simply create a bounty, money would quickly improve the success :P
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] mightyvenom:
+1 for the bounty.

I am done waiting for my carrier to play nice with Google. My problem is that I also totally dislike Samsung, Oneplus etc.

We need to get this organised asap, I am sure there are plenty developers here on XDA willing to take that bounty.

Maybe we can use a platform like bountysource.com ?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] reas0n:
GoFundMe would be better, because you can't collect $ from people on the site you mentioned. Actually as someone who is on XDA since 2010 and already organized one bounty...maybe I'd be someone trustworthy enough to organise it
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] mightyvenom:
Oh yeah, I totally forgot about gofundme, sorry!

Feel free to organize this, hopefully we can get enough people onboard to make for a tempting bounty.

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ibrahim52:
Oh I am in for middle east UAE Pixel fans
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
The Pixel 6 (non pro) community made a module for that purpose, I don't know if that one works for the P6 Pro, I'd advise not to use it, but you could ask the creator of the mod (github page is linked in that thread) if he is able to help you guys.

https://xdaforums.com/t/activating-5g-in-unsupported-countries.4393697/

I remember that there was a relatively easy fix for the p4(a) and p5 to activate 5G in unsupported countries, even though I'm not sure if that still applies to the P6 Pro. Root required for both methods.

You could try these steps out (make backups!!!), but be warned that it might brick certain things.

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] TheShinyEnd:
The pixel 6 lineup isn't on a Qualcomm chipset, Google has made their own chip called Tensor. Now the difference is that in Qualcomm's way they give you developer tools such as the Qualcomm Product Support Tools (QPST) which makes the Chip unlock its 5G capability, easy. Now in Googles Tensor's case we don't have access to these type of tools, and the Chip itself can lock the 5G modem.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
That eliminates the second method with the file editing, but the first method was successful for the Pixel 6 non Pro, so that should be a possibility for you guys here, even though that Magisk mod might have to be adjusted slightly.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] TheShinyEnd:
If so I'll give it a ago in a little bit..

- I have the Pro version.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] LLStarks:
Do not flash that file. It's for Qualcomm chips and you're basically flashing Qualcomm directories onto your phone.

I don't know how anyone can say it was successful.

5G and other 5G features are controlled by the carrier settings. And that's not easy to manipulate.

Don't ever approach this phone with a "well this module works for 4/4a/5/5a" mentality.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] reas0n:
+1 don't do it, Tensor is Exynos based, QPST only worked on previous Pixels
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] LLStarks:
Getting lucky with the relatively simple flags to enable VoLTE by flashing tons of other crap onto your phone is not a validation.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] TheShinyEnd:
Okay I won't do it. And yeah that's what I thought.

Just that the fact that it worked on the non pro model caught my attention.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Shipoftheline:
I've given up on 5G now even though my network supports it Google have said they wont certify the device, certainly won't be getting another Google phone after this
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] LLStarks:
I'm still confused as to why people imported this device when carrier support was clear from day one.

I don't think it's right that an OEM controls that, but that's the reality we're dealing with.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] mightyvenom:
I think I know why, I will give my best shot:

Many prefer using Pixel phones as they offer the closest experience to iPhone (regularly OS updates for years to come, clean OS without unnecessary bloatware and clutter etc.) and they are willing to accept the current state of not having full connectivity support with a hope that things might change in the (near) future.

It's not like the first time a phone manufacturer aknowledges customer feedback. Call me overly optimistic but I think they will eventually cave in, at least for unlocking VoLTE and VoWiFi. Because more and more countries are shutting down the 3G cell towers.

As for unlocking 5G support - from my understanding that would be more complicated as that's subject to each country's policy and legislation.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] tanipat:
I am in for bounty. Thailand carrier
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Shipoftheline:
You aren't guaranteed it in a supported country, Google are 🤬

I'm on Smarty Mobile UK which is owned by Three and obviously on the Three network but Google say its not compatible with the network even though they've certified the Pixel on Three, THE SAME NETWORK, the signals, bands are exactly the same.............oh and if you think that's bad the Pixel 6 is also certified on the idmobile network which also uses Three
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ibrahim52:
It's about one more year and never ever I will ever go for pixel phones. Switch to brand like apple which has global reach and best customer care. Still let's see if anyone is able to crack the 5g someday. There is always a hope.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] TheShinyEnd:

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] felek73:
I wonder why everybody wants 5G so badly? As I heard 5G nowadays draining battery as hell, transfer is not so much superior comparing to LTE and the coverage of 5G network is not very well. Isn't volte and vowifi enough? Trully speaking I had to use magisk module to be able use them but it works very well..
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] arskozlov:
In my case, I'm using the phone as a modem. I have good 5G coverage in Prague, pay for unlimited data, and want to get all the benefits I could from my phone)
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] felek73:
Ok, your case explains itself😀 what's the difference between 4 and 5 G?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ibrahim52:
Imagine you had a pixel 4 which was already doing the same job, you switched to pixel 6 falling for its best specs there is and then you are still using what you had in the previous model.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] jcp2:
1G! Sorry.....had to do it ;)
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Shipoftheline:
I for one would like it because the signal as a whole on the Pixel 6 isn't that good so the more bands that are switched on the better

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Utini:
Which module did you use to enable VoWiFi?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] TheShinyEnd:
This is a module I've found that works, enables VoWiFi and VoLTE, It's made by foobar66, so credit is where it's due!
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ibrahim52:
Problem with this modules I face is unable to make conference calls unless I turn off the VoLTE feature. That is a mystery unsolved with any VoLTE enabling modules I used so far.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
My phone (stock, no magisk mod that changed any connectivity settings) was - from october to march update - not able to make calls, if a VPN and WiFi-call were enabled at the same time. It's possible that your problems have nothing to do with this module, but are a Pixel firmware problem.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ibrahim52:
You can always reset your phone to cross check. Anyway everything is backed up on cloud
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] reas0n:
Hey guys! I got pretty busy lately, but finally I created a bounty for 5G unlock for unofficial countries

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] mightyvenom:
Thank you for this, I will surely chip in.

Did you also mention unlocking VoLTE and VoWiFi in this bounty?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] reas0n:
Magisk module is a few posts above though and it works. It's linked in bounty description as well
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] mightyvenom:
Yes, I am aware of that. I just think the whole point is to have all those features without needing to root, I think that's what people are mainly paying for.

I apologize if I misunderstand how things stand and I am looking forward do this initiative.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] reas0n:
You can't mod your phone without at least unlocking the bootloader...
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ibrahim52:

Mod Edit: Link removed.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] maxius4:
Also have to consider if your carrier has a band whitelist either on the phone or tower, also if they even have 5g band in your area. i have the coverage area and a S20 FE 5G I did all the things even directly connected AT&T chat that went to supervisor that kicked me into a 6 hour queue and politely disconnected me from that queue after 2 hours
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Scalee:
Interesting, I have 5G in an unlisted country. Didn't even know this was a problem.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] TheShinyEnd:
Google Fi? Maybe you're on a listed country and you didn't notice? There surely something..

This is a dumb question but have you made any changes to the GEO location or use(d) a VPN?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Scalee:
Maybe I misunderstood, I googled what the supported countries are supposed to be and the list I found was:

I am in the Netherlands, which isn't on the list. I didn't change any GEO location and also haven't used my VPN on this phone yet.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] TheShinyEnd:
Weirdly enough I don't see it listed.. but I'm pretty sure it is supported, have you bought it in a Google store in your area or just from amazon/other?

I don't live in Netherlands so I don't know how much Google "supports"/sells their stuff in Netherlands.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Scalee:
As far as I know, you cannot buy it through the google store in the Netherlands (since it's not officially released here, google deems us a too small country). It's also not sold by many retailers because of this, the one I bought it from doesn't list where it's actually from but as far as I can find it's 'grey import' which seems to mean it a model for a different European country.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] TheShinyEnd:
strange, 5G shouldn't work for you.

Perhaps, since it's a model for a different European country, it works for you*. I really doubt it, Google goes towards extreme lengths to do these abnormal stuff.

* Netherlands is a European country, so a phone for a specific continent, will work only at that continent.

[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markovidalis:
Hey guys

I've created an android application with a wearos module contained within it. This might be a rookie issue given that I'm new to android development (I'm from a web dev background) but I'm struggling to get my wear and mobile apps to communicate, when they are in debug mode.

Basically, I have written some code in the mobile application to detect if the wearOS app exists on a connected watch, and if it does, allow the user to monitor the sensor activity on the watch.

When I run the mobile application debugger on a physical device through USB, I see it doesn't package the wear application with it and so I cannot install the linked watch application on my watch (which is linked to android studio through ADB over wi-fi). While the mobile device debugger is running, I run the debugger for the watch app too and the app then runs on the watch, but it doesn't look like the code in the app is actually detecting the watch. This functionality does work though when downloading the published app through the play store, and then installing it on the watch through the play store too using the 'apps on your phone' menu on my watch.

How can I achieve the connectivity between the watch and phone apps through the debugger? This is a massive pain point for me and I can't seem to find anything online that addresses this and that describes how best to set up debug environments so that these apps are linked on the 2 devices and can communicate in debug mode. My mobile device app is heavily dependent on detecting watch sensors and interacting with them and so I need an efficient way to test this.

Thanks!

"Why JPEGs Look Better Than RAW Images"
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] p51d007:
I only shoot raw, because I have used a d-slr for well over 15 years, and photoshop for around 30. It just comes natural. Plus, on the phone, I don't have a lot of control when I'm in a hurry to snap something with the phone, so I can fix it later. ;)
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] stbxxl:
I use both JPG and RAW depending on the use case. RAW files have definitely more information, but they require post processing. I don't mind this since it allows me to make decisions re contrast, white balance, sharpness etc. and not some algorithm.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] MrBelter:
I only shoot raw when i am doing weddings other than that i always shoot JPEG.

You can do everything with a JPEG that you can do with a raw file you just cant push it as far. Plus when you shoot JPEG as part of the processing the sensor noise will be dealt with.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] darrylgreen12:

[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] dalepl:
Looked into my watch settings and found use remote connections. I did not set it up or try it, but it says it will work between my phone and watch. Do not know how valuable it would be to me since the phone and watch still have to be on the same network, using Bluetooth seems fine. I guess if I was outside with my watch and left my phone in the house I could still send and receive calls on the phone via WiFi if I no longer had a Bluetooth connection, but to tell you the truth, I usually have my phone with me and the range on the watch and the phone on Bluetooth is real good. Much better then my Galaxy Frontier.

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 12 (S), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.

LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps). LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.
