So I got this free sim card with 40GB free per month from YES https://www.yes.my/learn . My Mi A2 is under supported device, and when I check the coverage here https://www.yes.my/support/coverage it says 'This area has LTE & Broadband coverage'. So I put the sim card into my Mi A2 and it can detect Yes's network, but the mobile data doesn't work. Any ideas?

have you checked your APN? YES4G

Thanks for the reply. My APN is yes Internet, as that was the default. So need to change?

you have to find out whether your phone support yes lte band first.

yes, please change

I thought their APN is yesnet?

Try enable volte.

just changed the apn to YES4G but still doesn't work


is volte the "Enhanced 4G LTE Mode?". If yes, already enabled and disabled. Still cannot.

maybe your hp not support yes band in your area, b20, b38 or b40..which is not support on your mobile phone.

Try playing with the options in *#*#4636#*#*

Sometime it help in my case. And for the info, one of my phone can't use their SIM because of custom rom even it is listed as supported phone.

err what's that? But my hp (xiaomi mi a2) is listed under supported device at Yes's website

MI 6X
Network Technology GSM / CDMA / HSPA / LTE
LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 34(2000), 38(2600), 39(1900), 40(2300), 41(2500) - China


i scare YES on your location is running 4G channel B20 only... your area mamybe dont dont b38 n b40...so u wont have line...

and your mobile phone not support b20. only b38 n b40 4G YES band.

wah so complicated one...

thanks for your help though

Tried Yes line last year, it was really bad. They promote so much on their 4G, but so limited area got 4G connection lel

that is YES 4G channal band. b20, b38 & b40. see the area which band is running. hardly to have a band in the area. mostly is running b20.

or try others phone u had.

how to know my area have which band running?

call YES and check, if hp detected got 4G line, install apps can see which band u connected to. if no line at all probably hardware not suppport/ no line there.

depends on where you live and what phone you have.

for me it's quite good

ooh ok thanks

living in KL wo... and using samsung s10 :/

maybe just my luck

where you stay though?

in melaka
never have a moment where I don't get any signals

but again it's depends mostly if you happened to be near a school most of the time.

ah.. yea, that could be it. not staying anywhere near a school.

i heard that they deployed their towers in schools right?

yup.

also if not mistaken if a phone doesn't support band 20, you still get yes internet but you won't get any SMS registration nor volte.

remember putting it in my uncle Samsung j6, one need to activate the SIM card in some other phone first. also there's probability that TS is using non malaysian firmware

ah damn man! damn mafan man... yea, i heard about different 4G bands for different countries phone sets, that's why better to buy from local official dealers

well that's the reason why it's services are dirt cheap.

seriusly, they can't even be use in an iPhone despite the phone support their 4g band and they have operated the LTE for 2 years already.

enable volte for call.
for internet, try compare your APN settings wit mine.

is it? how cheap is YES? hahaha

dafuq? macam a lot of problems only one

depends.... like hardware 4G specs... see weather support or not or have the band support or not b20, b38 or b40 depends on the area tower 4G band, for YES mostly is b20.

RM30 unlimited data per month with really stable connection
they say 3mbps but any video would play just fine
no banned on prawn either.

dafuq?! rm30 is damn cheap! and got unlimited some more

interesting... but too bad, my place here sucks, the 4G tak boleh :/
