5G on EE phone with CSC changed.

[Kondek85]

Hey

Are here any people who were brave enough to changed CSC code from EE to get this beta and been using 5G network from them before the update? 

I did it and today I've noticed that in the area when I had 5G on my phone I'm getting only H+ if I have the 5G/LTE/3G/2G chosen but when when I choose LTE/3G/2G I can connect to 4G. 5G doesn't work, I understand that this comes from the CSC etc and it's ma fault

But

Does anyone know why it doesn't force 4G when 5G is not available when the option 1 is chosen?

If I have this option chosen max I get is H+ and I need to switch to the 2nd, lower, to get 4G. Weird

change to lte/3g/2g and then back again. that should correct it

[slater1991]

but to be fair I have no 5g in my area. but been showing h+ instead of 4g

I tried to change and it doesn't work. I bought my phone in EE shop but because of the fact that EE phones were not eligible for beta I changed the CSC.
So you have the same, if 5G is chosen and not in range it won't switch to 4G but to H+.

If you choose the option with LTE as first it does connect you with 4G right?

I've changed my CSC too. though mine was Vodafone. 5g works fine

shouldn't be an issue because of csc, have you checked your apn after changing to make aure it's still correct? mine needed updating

[Kondek85]

is it EE? Can you tell me what should it be there? Or screenshot maybe?

Still, when I'm on 5G profile in connection settings my phone skips 4G when it cannot connect to 5G.
Are you in EE network? Does it show you 4G or 4G+?

I googled the settings for EE 5G and they seem to be the same as in my phone.
After you changed the CSC - is this is how it looks like on your software information?

[Kondek85]

Solved, it was the name of the APN, it has changed to internet instead of EE 5G. Works fine now

I use a unlocked G986B/DS on EE. Works fine on beta. Switching between 5G and 4G works a treat still.
