    No wifi 5Ghz in my Mipad 4 with miui EU

    You never mentioned your country so it's hard to help you out. I am in the USA and use my two MiPad4's in the usa... To Be Honest, I don't think that the Dev's unlocked the wifi & sim in newer builds as I indicated in my earlier posting. When I bought another MiPad4 and installed the latest...

    8.12.20

    I got my MiPad4+last week and flashed the weekly 8.12.13 two days ago and then updated to 8.1.20 last night. I downloaded the 8.12.20 file manually because the OTA ping wasn't live yet, but I did find the file manually on android host. OTA should work just fine for these weekly builds. It's very...

    Since people are too lazy to look around- Here is a condensed summary. ALL- There are big changes on the 5ghz wifi side. on 12/19/18 Xiaomi killed off channel 36-64 support. (Maybe channels 100-140 too) https://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=4944909&extra=page=1&mobile=2 Here is my...

    No wifi 5Ghz in my Mipad 4 with miui EU

    I'm using the weekly beta's and I updated mine last night to 8.12.20. everything is fine....If you want "bleeding edge" go with a beta....if you're worried about errors, stick to the stable builds. I was very happy with the 8.12.13 build, give the new one a try=8.12.20 you should be able to...

    No wifi 5Ghz in my Mipad 4 with miui EU

    There are explicit reasons why you would not want to change channels for 5ghz to a low channel number; primarily the broadcast power of 23dbm on channels 36-64 in CN and 36-48 in USA. Given that, I want to use channel 161 for 30dbm TX pwr (technically up to 36dbm, but max pwr to the...

    No wifi 5Ghz in my Mipad 4 with miui EU

    I am not sure if you solved your issue or not, but I had a similar issue this week (12/19/18) with my MiPad4+ that is LTE. ( you never mentioned if you have the LTE or regular version of the smaller MiPad4). The LTE Version of this, and perhaps the non LTE MiPad 4 (someone else who owns needs to...

    This file is very small (787kb) and only has the Meta-INF folder and a system folder with buildprop file and a wifi jar file. I'm a total newbie at this, Do i copy and replace the Meta-INF file with the original in the 8.12.13 Zip? I have no clue what to do with the system folder and its files...

    8.12.13

    +1 for another Mi PAD 4+ user. I am located in the USA and just installed 8.12.13 and do not have a SIM card inserted because I don't plan on using any cellular data with this tablet. I cannot see any 5ghz signal. If I insert my phone's sim card, the 5ghz Wifi radio starts working. I can...
