Can anyone tell me any tips and tricks for this feature? Possibly direct me to a tutorial for the Lumia 950/XL.

I can access the menu with ##3282# but can't save the settings. I don't want to start messing around and brick anything.

You are better off letting it be. One of the best reasons to use the field Test menu was to enable bands that were disabled. On my 950, all the bands were already enabled.

There's also ENS mode that allows people to use other provider towers if your having low signal strength. I just want to enable and save it because at work I get subpar reception.

Interesting, they are all enabled for me except for LTE Band 41.

How exactly does this work? Is there a link you can provide that has more information?

Thanks

I work for a software company and all the E.M.T gives ATT subpar service. There are walkthroughs for previous phones not the 950/XL.

I don't know if this setting matters on Windows 10 but on previous devices/OS, the setting made a difference from what I have read. I am looking for a walkthrough as well 😋
