Hi, is there anyway to boost reception for Maxis on my S9+? I have been having 4g 2 bars in office and sometimes disconnection using internet.

QUOTE(andrekua2 @ Apr 25 2018, 10:56 AM) You can try to disable band 7 when indoors. Thanks, I will try this.*#2263# Stack 1 (or 2 depending which sim you use for data) Band disable LTE Tap on Band7 once (no more * beside band 7) Try and see if it improved. Repeat 1-3 and reset when you're outdoor so that you can enjoy 4G+. |

When I received call, voice quality was bad and my tethering apps got disconnected, signs at dropped to H+.*#2263# Stack 1 (or 2 depending which sim you use for data) Band disable LTE Tap on Band7 once (no more * beside band 7) Try and see if it improved.

QUOTE(silencer @ Apr 27 2018, 07:54 PM) It's quiet common for Maxis data connection quality to drop to H+ when u receiving any call.. According to the Maxis technician It's not just my phone, other maxis users on the same floor also have the same problem. So I guess it may not be my account issue. I still think that you should call their Hotline to reset your data account connection QUOTE(andrekua2 @ Apr 27 2018, 08:35 PM) That's because Maxis don't support Voice over LTE (VoLTE) yet. All the normal calls would force phone to drop back to 3G network. Thanks for the explanation, I learn some new stuff today. I guess u must work for telcos to know these stuff. DiGi and Yes already activated VoLTE in some area. Maxis will take a very long time or will never even implement it. Who knows. Why Band7? Band 3 is 1800MHz while Band 7 is 2600MHz. Technically higher spectrum would translate into higher throughput but at the same time it sacrifice wall penetration. So band 7 would have harder time penetrating offices walls than Band 3 which is why I recommended you to disable it altogether to force your phone to strictly use Band3. If you don't, Telco can force your phone to band 7 when they feel their band 3 is too congested. |
