Im surprised nobody notice here that Maxis no longer operate on Band 7 LTE frequency. Maybe try to cut cost for incoming 5G or NGBB expansion. Idk what actually happen. When i try to manually lock to Maxis Band 7. It will just show Emergency Calls Only to Celcom/Digi network or No Service. It not big deals as Band 7 sucks at upload speed anyway. Just worth to point out Maxis not operate 4G LTE on Band 7 anymore. So, good bye 4G+ speedtest above 200Mbps.. whistling.gif

Band 7 still active in Cyberjaya.

Here it is being aggregated. Primary band is Band 3.

What I can try doing is lock B7 and check if it remains connected during my commute (Cyber to Shah Alam) back.

Looks like they might be preventing devices from using B7 as the primary band. Noticed this in the Puchong-USJ area.

With just band 7 enabled, and all others used by Maxis disabled. My phone drops to 2G. But let's say I enable just band 1. My phone would use b1 as the primary band and band 7 for carrier aggregation.

True for Kinrara and PJ area as well. This will allow more China imported phones to have 4G+ signal by default

Shah Alam as well. Locked on B7 (disabled B1/3/8 and B28 to prevent the phone from going on 5G) and it's back to EDGE.

Do China-imported phones don't support B7 or something?

certain China-imported phones support B7 but no CA with other band, stuck with B7. B1-B3 is a common combo in China so CA should works better

Interesting. Are there that many China imported phones on the Maxis network?
