Carrier name display as Samsung - Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers

I have a note 10 Plus unlock and instead of seeing my carrier name like AT&T, Sprint, Verizon or T-Mobile, it display Samsung. Why is it not showing my carrier name Sprint. You can see it on preferences, about phone, status, sim card status, network, Samsung. You can see under Brand Samsung. Also on lock screen top left says Samsung instead of Sprint.

I don't know how to change it, but you can hide it with 'quickstar' pluggin for Good Lock.

Thank you, but anybody has any idea why is it displaying Samsung as my network operator instead of Sprint

I surely would like to see "samsung"instead of my carrier name!

No idea, but interested in learning the reason! I'm also with Sprint, and seeing Samsung would be nice for a change

Create a while list of phone numbers?

Is it possible to restrict the phone numbers the phone can call?
I want to restrict calling to certain list of approved phone numbers. Is this possible?
Should be possible with any phone and carrier, as long as you know your sim's PIN2 code. You should be able to enable it in Settings > Call > Fixed Dialing Numbers.
Good luck finding your SIM PIN 2 though. The default for T-Mobile is supposedly 5678, but I have found that it is hit or miss whether T-Mobile SIMs actually have the default values.
I can't speak for US users, but in Romania every SIM comes with its own set of PIN, PIN2, PUK, PUK2.
So I'm SOL with a Bell Desire Z?
If you can't find the PIN2 on the SIM card (the large, credit card-sized one), call Bell and they should be able to provide you with one.
Maybe I'm just missing it, but on the European ROM I can't see anything under Call->Settings for fixed dialling numbers.

Build 1.34.405.5, CID HTC__032 (WWE, not branded)
Thanks. That's odd though, because I'm on that same ROM version and I don't see those options. I can only guess that it must be carrier/SIMcard-specific ?

Help!!!! Please!

So, I just bought a galaxy nexus UK international unlocked version. It has 5 pins on the sim reader and only reads Simple Mobile sims, doesnt read Straight Talk, AT&T and T-Mobile. When the seller called the Play Store, they claimed the nexus only has 5 pins. Could you please post pics of your sim slots? Thanks
I am the seller and got two different answers. The first person I spoke to said it only had 5 and said they would send a user manual that showed that. When I didn't receive the manual, I called back. The second person I spoke to said he would take a picture and send it to me. Here it is.

Your phone should read every sim card you have.

Bought mine from an importer, a Canadian version technically. It has the same pin layout as the picture above.

Considering that SIM connections/slots are standard and the European unlocked GSM Galaxy Nexus are identical to the Google Play Galaxy Nexus in terms of hardware there should be no reason why they shouldn't read the same SIMs.

No roaming settings at all. Please help!!

Hi everyone im new to the site. I have a sprint lg g5 and im out of the country currently. So heres the deal. I requested a uicc unlock before i left. So i got here (israel) and i had roaming for about a half hour and then it just went to no service. So when i went into my settings to make sure the roaming was on i saw that the option for roaming whether domestic or international does not exist. Also network type options all i get is lte/cdma or just cdma no automatic option.
I called sprint and they said its lg's fault so i called lg and they said its sprint's fault.
Has anyone ever seen or heard of this problem?

SM-G988U1 on AT&T will not pick up 5G

I recently switched over from using my Galaxy Note10 which was a AT&T device to my unlocked S20 Ultra 5G. When I made the switch I also changed my plan from the Business Unlimited Starter plan I had been on since last year to the Business Unlimited Performance plan which now gives me 5G/5G+ access. I am in a AT&T 5G area & I can not pick up a 5G signal at all. My city is pretty much covered in 5G and their is a 5G tower not far from me. I've tried resetting my network settings with no luck at all. What issues could I be experiencing that I am only picking up LTE+ & not 5G?
Try this...
First call AT&T and make sure you give them the IMEI and ICCID...then get the Net Monitor App and go to the top right hand 3-dots click dots and click SETTINGS...Then ANDROID RADIO Menu....click okay when warning comes up....scroll way way way down to Set Preferred Network Type and just make sure your are on Unknown per the screen shots below...always remember what is chosen if it is not Unknown in case you need to go back. Please do let us know if this worked? Also, DO NOT change anything else in this app as it could mess with your connection

Just wanted to give a update on my AT&T 5G situation with my S20 Utlra 5G (SM-G988U1). After calling business customer support I had my IMEI# changed from what they had on file for me which was my Galaxy Note10 to my S20 Ultra 5G. This now allows me access to 5G on AT&T. If anyone else has this concern just contact AT&T customer service and make sure your account has your 5G device's IMEI# linked to it.

5G on Pixel XL 2?

I've only had my Pixel XL 2 for about a month. It was given to me and I know it's an older phone, but I like it a lot so I'm going to use it a while.
Anyway, playing around with the radios and APN's my phone says that there's access to 5G, but I didn't think this was a 5G phone. So is it possible to get 5G with the Pixel 2 XL? I'm on T-Mobile at the moment. We have 5G in our area with T-Mobile.
So like I said I'm curious if I can get 5G on this phone and why it says 5G recommended in my network options and why there's "NR" radio options in the radio/band settings menu.
Thanks for any insight into this!

No way you'll get 5G without the hardware.
That it shows in your settings must be a bug - probably a T-Mobile bug. It is not listed on my phone.

Sorry I've taken so long to reply to this. And yeah I thought the same thing also, that the SD 835's modem doesn't have the necessary hardware to get 5G. I have a Verizon SIM in my Pixel XL 2 now as of the time of writing this, and the NR option is still available in my radio menu. So idk if it's a T-Mobile bug or just a bug with my phone. It still gives me the option for 5G recommended in my system wifi/network/bluetooth menu also. But ya know, never connected to 5G so idk ya know? But thank you for replying!
