5123b in Pixel 6. 5300g in Pixel 7.

Still assessing new things like PC1.5, UL-MIMO, combos, 5G release version, etc.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] swieder711:
I ran Network Signal Info on my P6P and P7P and saw no improvement in the cellular signal. How disappointing.

View attachment 5734763

I have not sent in my P6P for the trade-in yet. If there are other tests that people can suggest then I will try them.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Deadmau-five:
I've had no issues. I switched from a 5a5g and its a bit faster IMO.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] McTerry:
I've been an every other generation Pixel owner from the original Pixel, to the Pixel 3 XL, Pixel 5, and now the Pixel 7 Pro. I used to really have a hard time getting signal inside my house on the Pixel 5 and calls were hit or miss and would generally take a few seconds before switching over to wi-fi calling and clear up but the 7 Pro gives me 4 bars in my home and crystal clear calls. This is a very unexpected thing as I just assumed it would be about the same and was an issue more with the tower location and the house itself.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] jaseman:
I never go by how many bars are showing in the notification shade because that can easily be manipulated one way or another. The only way to truly tell is to check the signal strength in the settings. Right now mine is at -100 dBm 40 asu. This is very good to me as most of my previous phones ran around -103>-105 and yet they showed full bars whereas the 7 Pro is only showing 2 or 3. So from my standpoint the 7 Pro is a winner in my book!
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Linuxkek:
@jaseman thats true. Its not standardized.

Xiaomi 5/5 with -98 dBm

Huawei 4/5 with -92 dBm

Samsung 0/4 with -124 dBm

The biggest issue with Exynos is after fall back to 2G (there is no only 4G mode) it needs 15 min. to go back to 4G but on my Huawei and Xiaomi it still gets 4G signal with 3-5 Mbit/s download.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Nestacres76:
Have had the P7P for 24 hours now and the connectivity seems better than P6P. On commute to work on train, areas where P6P would struggle, disconnecting from 5g, take ages to find 4g were not happening on P7P today. The switch from 5g to 4g was much quicker and stable. A step up in my opinion. Had much better connectivity out and about than before
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] swieder711:
The power in my house just went out and the cellular signal was crap.

The exclamation point showed next to the 1-2 bars. Seems no better than my P6P. My primary reason for upgrading was the hope of better cellular service. I'm disappointed.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Linuxkek:
So its just @McTerry which have to say good things about the new modem :/
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] McTerry:
Guess so, but I'm also coming from a Pixel 5, never had the 6. So, I dunno... It's an improvement for me.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] EtherealRemnant:
The 5300 just launched in tandem with the Pixel 7 series. Sure, it's very likely behind the X65, but it's still a new modem.

I'm also having zero issues with it so...
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] 5.1:
Hello,

I got mine Two days ago and I live in France.

Coming from a Pixel 4A 4G if that matters.

At home, my 4G signal seems better and speed. Where i used to have 2-3 Mbits/sec, it now doubled up. I set network prefs to 4G, i don't really care about 5G tbh...

I don't take it outside yet, as i'm waiting for TGSP/case to get delivered. Seems promising (y)

Cheers,

Sébastien.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Beefheart:
-98 dBm in my living room on my Note 10 Plus.

-84 dBm in my living room on my Pixel 7 Pro.

Both with the same Vodafone UK sim card.

All good as far as I'm concerned
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Rohan390:
I am pretty happy with the reception, checked both Pixel 7 and 7 Pro and getting around -75 dBm to -100 dDm.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] itiskonrad:
The 7 pro modem may not be spectacular, but it's been worlds better for me than my 6 pro. I didn't lose signal once all day at work yesterday on the 7 pro, where I used to have to reset my connection at least once every couple hours on my 6 pro. I just drove to a particularly bad spot that usually gives me borderline unusable signal on the 6 pro and did a side-by-side. Surprisingly I actually got some usable signal on the 6 pro (must be because I was there earlier than usual with less mobile congestion), but still my 7 pro signal was noticeably more stable/faster. Obviously not everyone will have the same experience as I do, but safe to say I'm pleased 😁
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] sam2c:
I don't think 6p had much of a problem with LTE. Also, If you're in a bad reception area, nothing much can be done. Can you check 5g signal in a reasonable reception area?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] sam2c:
P7p speed on ookla. I don't remember hitting 400 mbps on Mint with P6P, but I might be wrong. Maybe someone else can verify
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Lughnasadh:
On my Pixel 6 Pro I was on the Verizon network and the best speed I got was a little over 100 mpbs download and under 10 mpbs uploads.

When I got the Pixel 7 Pro I switched to Mint Mobile (T-Mobile network) and got the speeds below, which actually shocked me. My reception is also much better. Probably mostly due to switching carriers but the modem may also play a role. Can't really be sure how much, if any, though.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Linuxkek:
@sam2c the speed is not the problem here
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] sam2c:
It was a related problem actually. Several outlets tested the 5g speeds on 6p and found it way slower than Snapdragon counterparts
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] mwatson:
Are you sure they are connected to the same cell site? I can only see the ID on the left photo
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] morphius88:
I just tested my P7P at work on the same tower vs Asus 5S Pro.

P7P

4G: -102 db, 38 ASU

5G: -95 db, 45 ASU

Asus 5S Pro

4g: -100 db, 40 ASU

5G: -97 db, 43 ASU

So at least it appears as good as my previous phone.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] swieder711:
I dont have the P6P anymore. The measurements were was done from my home office with both phones side-by-side.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Linuxkek:
You need to use it more and compare it with the old one.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] morphius88:
I will. but for now, calling and browsing on cellular data seems to be on par with my previous device. I will also compare it to my older OnePlus 8T which was one of my favorite all around phones.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] old_fart:
I think the conditions need to be given and taken into account. Compare apples to apples.

I am referring to where the cell tower sits in relation to your phone.

So the big test is how the phone's radio handles hand-offs like when you're traveling. ? ? ?

I am most often at my home ( retired ) and the closest cell tower is not near me. I have been getting one, maybe two bars once in a while, of signal strength for 10+ years. I'm not moving. I talk on the Pixel phone through the Cox cable modem.

.

The Pixel 6 gave me one bar and the Pixel 7 gives me the same. No magic happening but reality.

.

I have read several articles by experts and they agree the new chip is a better chip.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] danw_oz:
Here is Brisbane the Telstra network is pretty crap, I have now had a couple of not drops but no data signal on my morning commute. I am putting this down to Telstra and not the phone
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Samuel Holland:
I was on the beta, and today back on stable, and maybe it's a coincidence with T-Mobile congestion, but definitely seems night and day not as quick.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] LLStarks:
I have so many questions right now. Finally got this phone hooked up to ShannonDM and there's a ton of hidden menus. Just the tip of the iceberg.

n70 not enabled yet but somehow n13 is? A Release 15 phone advertising a Release 17 band. I don't get it.

View attachment 5766451
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] MrBelter:
Doesnt seem any different to my P6P to be honest but i never had a problem with that either. Signal is always terrible in my house regardless of network but out and about its been fine.

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nifluril:
Hi,

I've just taken a 101-G8 out of its box after about 10 years. I was pleased to find it was still in working conditions, was able to connect it to the wifi, use the installed apps, but trouble started when I tried to browse (using the pre-installed Dolphin browser). Almost all sites give me the 'Web page not available' message. After some trials I found that accessing http version instead of https would work, if the site didn't force a redirect. So I suspect a certificate issue, but I have no clue how to update them. Then I found out that the AppsLib and Market apps are no longer supported, so I can't update or install new apps.

After reading the forums, I know I could try to upgrade Android to something like 4.0 (via Cyanogen), but I'm not even sure this would fix my browsing issues, which is all I need right now (I'd like to use it for my kids to access the doodlelearning.com website). Any advice for me?

Thanks!

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xanrer:
Hello there, I installed lineage os before to this phone with open gapps, at first I thought open gapps was well... open to fix that mistake I decided to reinstall lineage without gapps, and well I deleted the existing OS and tried to write the new one. Well, the thing is it took about a second but it TWRP said success. so i restarted. Turns out it failed and now the phone trying to boot into no operating system. I was thinking of throwing this brick under a car but I thought there may be something you guys know about. So is it going to recover or is it going to be under a car?
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xanrer:
Ah never mind, I thought recovery mode was volume down + power. It was apparently power up + home + power. Guess the car has to wait for another chance...

Hi @Nem1x & thanks for your work and the link!

Are you by any chance in contact with @0xcafebabe ?

I'm asking because it would be great to have threads here in XDA for the official releases for Mi439 and Mi8937!

For example: in the Mi8937 LOS20-ROMs April14th and April7th the ROM destroys the WiFi and BlueTooth function: "adresses not available"

[I do have a RedMi4x = santoni]

So any forum for discussing bugs and supporting each other to solve problems would be great! :)

Cheers! raimerik
[Redmi 7A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Nem1x:
Maybe you should use his unofficial builds. Also does it still happen on other roms after switching from lineage? If so, you may have corrupted persist partition. And no, cafebabe doesn't accept private messages from people.

EDIT: If you're still on Lineage, try this:

Solution:

Enable adb root

connect to pc

adb root

adb shell

restorecon -R -F -v /mnt/vendor/persist/

reboot
[Redmi 7A ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] raimerik:
Hi @Nem1x - cheers for replying.

I didn't want to 'private message' the developer. I was just wondering, where a discussion of his official Lineage ROM would best fit within the XDA boards? (So maybe (s)he could respond to the feedback?)

What would you suggest?

Has anyone used smart watches from Aliexpress or TomTop or Amazon? There seems to be a lot of these watches which are pretty useful up to some extent.

They have limited functionality as compared to Samsung Galaxy Watch or Garmin watch -- but they do provide information similar to Samsung Watc4 or Watch5 - when it comes to SPO2, BP, heart rate, steps, sleep, etc. Some of them have their own apps on the phone and is available on both iOS and Android.

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] oraned:
IS THARE GCAM 50X ZOOM FOR PIXEL 6 PRO?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Alekos:
why all caps?

and why would you want 50 times zoom?

"The Google Pixel 6 Pro features more or less the same optical zoom sensor as the Galaxy S20 Ultra – it's got 4x actual optical zoom, while the rest is a mix of the sensor's megapixel count, optical zoom, and digital zoom all in one."

so between 5x and 20x its just digital zoom (but very impressive). The 7 Pro has a new Res Zoom feature that is part of the new Tensor2 chip, so if you want the best zoom, get the Samsung S22 or 7 Pro.

If you are looking for a GCAM app (google camera modified camera app), there's one made by MWP specifically for Pixels, found here. Use the first non-beta build from March (it doesn't have any further zoom capabilities but does have a number of manual settings that can be changed in the camera app).
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] 96carboard:
Yes what he said. Once you zoom past the physical lens, all its doing is CROPPING the image.
