I live in Japan, and I bought a Mi Max 128GB from China. We have a Band 41 network, but it never comes up when searching for networks with the Mi Max. My other phone, a Huawei Mate 9, always finds it. I'm wondering if the Mi Max actually supports Band 41 or not.
Checking with QPST, it seems Band 41 is enabled, but I can't find the network. Anyone else experience similar problems? Anything I can try to fix it? I'm pretty lost for ideas.

is there any solution to change 4g band in hisilicon chip.
because when im testing speed in netvelocity and band 40 (2300) give me max speed of 200-300kb in mid-day.
Sometime my device automatically set to Band 5 (850) and give me 1.5-2Mb speed at the same time.
Is there any possibility to set a specific band in honor 7x.
Model--- BND-AL10
sorry for my english.
Thank You.
till now this is not possible
why its not possible can u explain plese.thnx
Hello, I heard a rumour to use the new mi mix 2s in the USA you need to buy the 8gb ram/256 model?
Anyone know if that is true. I would prefer to use the lower versions of the mi mix 2s on T-Mobile in the USA but worried it won't work.

I doubt that's true. The bands are the same and the Mix2 works on both gsm and cdma (Verizon) lte. Since the new T-Mobile bands (band 60?) aren't widely deployed, I don't think you'll have a problem.

You should be fine...like the post above stated, the main T-Mobile frequencies are present. However, you will be missing band 66 and 71, the latter of which is becoming more and more important (the state of Wyoming, for instance, is almost exclusively band 71 on T-Mobile). Unfortunately it may take a while for Xiaomi or similar phones to support band 71 as it's been really slow in getting manufacturers to adopt this band, excepting Samsung, LG, and Moto. But in any case, all variants of the Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S do have the vast majority of T-Mobile's network covered vis-a-vis LTE banding.
It looks like all global versions of the Mi Mix 2S are compatible with T-Mobile LTE. But only the 256GB version of the Mi Mix 2S is compatible with Verizon. So if you're only worried about T-Mobile you should be fine.
I'm also in the same doubt..
Here in France we get the new b28 lte band, which is perfectly supported in the mi mix 2 whatever version, but in the 2s, it seems to be only supported on the 256 go/international version which is very very expensive!
But on some merchant (gearbest, aliexpress, etc...) the description of 64go global version say b28 lte band compatible...
Both 256go and 64go get the same cpu, snapdragon 845, and then the same lte modem...
So is there a chance to get a 64go global version compatible with this lte band, or could it possible to unlock the missing band with some tweaks???
According to official Mi Max 3 website:
LTE band support: B1, B3, B4, B5, B7, B8, B20
I just bought a Global version model: M1804E4A:
The user guide indicates band support: 1/3/7/8/20/34/38/40 (Bands 4 & 5 are missing !!??)
WIthout Bands 4 & 5 - I'm guessing I can't get onto AT&T and TMobile ?
Does anyone know if there is a code dialler to check what LTE band is being supported by Mi Max 3 ?
For folks using mi max 3 in USA successfully - may I know what is your model number?
I see 3 model variants on various websites: M1804E4A , M1804E4C, M1804E4T - anyone knows what the differences are?
Thanks !!
Screenshot from same global model. All those listed online are supported. Looks like they copied user guide from Mi Max 1/2 to save money...
For model #s nobody knows and until we start collecting data nobody will know for sure. My guess would be China 4GB and 6GB RAM, and Global. Second guess - diffident hardware variants regarding display and touchscreen, 2 each in kernel -> 4 possible configurations...
Wow thanks for your reply, how do you you get your phone to display the LTE bands? Is it difficult to do? Thanks

HI,
I operate a Note Pro 5 in the UK on the plusnet network which uses the following bands / frequency's. I use the global ROM
800MHz band, the 1800MHz band, the 2100MHz band
Iam not having much luck with the 4G speed / connection. Iam wondering if that's because the handset does not work with these bands. No point reformatting my phone only to find out if the phone does not work with these bands !!!
Thanks
Mathew
It should work fine, as they use EEs network. I use virgin mobile that also uses EEs network and its fine. Have you tried amending the APN settings?

Yes you are correct Virgin and Plusnet both run off EE but its not that simple.
EE only allow some bands to be avalible for resale the ones I have listed are what Plusnet use.
You have pointed out something I should have done!!!! I have removed the APN and started from scratch I will try this for a few days and see what happens.

So from what I've read plusnet don't seem to offer the 800mhz frequency (EE/virgin do), but if your Redmi Note 5 is the global version it will work with all UK 4G bands (including 800 or band 20 if its available from your provider). Usually band 20/800mhz travels further and so tends to be used more in rural areas to help improve coverage. Were you connecting to 4g OK before or have you just changed to plusnet or just got your RN5?

Yes I thought that but have had conformation directly from Plusnet that they do use the 800mhz range
@MathewRB
Global version of Redmi Note 5 supports all frequences You mentioned. The only problem is that it doesn"t support carrier agregation (LTE+) which can lead to slow data acces when the transmitter which Your"s phone is connected to is clogged

Thats a good bit of information looks like Iam finding more and more of reason (excuse) to upgrade to the 7 Note Pro. But when is the 8Note Pro due to come out any idea?
I'm start thinking my on board 5G modem is not propelly working as I have never connected to any 5G spot .
Of corse I have installed a 5G SIM and the carrier give me a 5G connection but no way to make It connected to a 5G network . The strange thing is that I didnt have any 5G network listed (if I try manually to force the device to find any networks available). I did this test in the center of many big italian cities but I got the same result: only 4G+ or 4G networks were listed.
I have tapped the 5G prefferred network
I did a recovery
I have the last original Rom installed.
Is there any sw to detect if the onboard modem is working propelly ?
Thank you in Advance for your cooperation.

Check what band use your 5g network, n77 or.. I can't remember...
Then check if your phone support that band... There is a difference between Chinese network or Europe..
Check out this thread, it's for Poco but the same point
Poco F2 Pro only support N77 and N78 5G
For Europe in future you need N1 and N28, without that you only get 5G in hotspots. So if you from Europe and care about 5G it is a bad idea to get a Poco F2 Pro. Source: https://www.poco.net/de/poco-f2-pro/specs_m/
