Re: Using the Idol 4s with W10M on AT&T?

Were you able to revert back all your changes? I bet you have a point on the HW being different, maybe in antenna configuration or possibly even the SIM card module (if it is seperate) could be different. Then again it could just be disabled (EU LTE bands) at the SOC level too.

yes I revert back all my changes i can remember its something happned like sudden sound while booting EU rom 1st time maybe due mis hardware speaker got burnt ?

i flash back original FUU and all are fine except the ear speaker hardware issue

I had that happen more than once on this device. So it is nothing particularly related to what you did. You can get a repalcement from Alcatel if you want but risk them messing up and sending you a sim locked unit, which we have stories about that here in the threads...

Re: Using the Idol 4s with W10M on AT&T?

So your goal was to get LTE and or VoLTE in India right? Is the IDOL 4 PRO (EU Model) still over 200.00?

Wow still priced high.

Am wondering if even you can replace the antenna board or maybe if you had to the entire logic board with that of the model you need to get reception on the right network there.

I can open up my IDOL 4s since it is semi bricked anyway, and let you know what I see and I can compare it to that of the EU model if I find pictures or a video of the internals.

thanks nate for help. i was thinking if there is any hack to enable to common VOLTE like Android, i mean any carrier VOLTE will work without issue like that, and it would be good

Re: Using the Idol 4s with W10M on AT&T?

Thank you Mr Goswami,

I am sorry for the late reply, as i was out of town few days.

Once i receive the phone next week, I will check if LTE works on any carrier or i will just use data on JIO as a backup phone.

Which city are you from? Most of the carriers in India support LTE bands 3, 5 and 40.

It's a known issue. Many have had this problem and continue to have it. But it's random. You can search the idol 4s forum and find details. Some people never experience the blown speaker though, it's odd. Only option is to replace it yourself or send it for RMA.

Did you try using Vodafone sim card, as they have launched VOLTE service in Delhi, Mumbai and Gujarat.

I dont know if it is on the same LTE band.
