Mi 10 Pro 5G - how to enable 5G Standalone mode

[slawkoc]

Does someone know how to enable 5G standalone mode on Mi 10 Pro 5G?? It seems like with 20..9.3 (and even earlier) it received QC code MPSS.HI.2.0.5.c3 which should support both Dynamic Spectrum Sharing and 5G SA

 

[LaurentT]

I have same question for mi 10 lite 5G.
The specification support 5G SA, but is there any restriction on country/operator ?
My phone doesn't detect my 5G SA network, but it is a lab network, so it can also be wrong

Hi LaurentT, slawkoc
Did you solve your problem? We have the same with no attachment to our 5G SA lab network.

 

[tvcristi]

Here?

 

[andrewlmiles]

tvcristi, thank you. That's interesting, I don't have that option. I need to investigate ROM versions I think...

 

[tvcristi]

I activated with SetEdit app from market.

 

[tvcristi]

Im on last stable xiaomi.eu rom

 

[andrewlmiles]

Thank you. Can you remember whether it was fiveg_switch_visible ? (Already "1" for me.)

 

[tvcristi]

Look here

 

[andrewlmiles]

Thank you again. I'll set fiveg_user_sa_enabled and see what happens (it doesn't make the extra settings appear in your post #4 but that may be something else).
All the best, A

Hello tvcristi
May I just check... which phone and MIUI version do you have with NR SA support?

Few words from me regarding 5G SA enabling on MI10Pro....

I have MI10Pro CN version. I was able to successfully attach the UE to the 5G SA, using QPST/PDC tool. In QXDM5 this is equivalent to PCAT tool. I was running stable 12.1.3.0. Similar can be achieved up to weekly 20.9.24.
Simplified steps:
1. Load ROW MBN file
2. on ADB shell (as root): setprop persist.vendor.radio.5g_mode_pref_0 2
3. NV items (using QXDM/PCAT):
• 00850 (Service Domain Preference) - 0x2 --> CS PS
• 65777 (UE usage setting) - 1 --> UE_USAGE_SETTING_DATA_CENTRIC
• 74308 (nr5g_disable_mode) - 0 --> CM_NR5G_DISABLE_MODE_NONE
4. carrier_policy.xml - enable all HW 5G SA bands for your region/PLMN. Some people just delete all file in "policman" folder.

Unfortunately above does not work on newer weekly then 20.9.24. nr5g_disable_mode NVItem apparently is overwritten on every reboot, so 5G SA will not work.

 

[andrewlmiles]

Thank you. That's determination!
We'll try the same here with Mi 10T Lite and Mi 10 Lite 5G, both EEA, and report back.

Im on latest stabile .eu for mi 10, no root.

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone had any luck with this, I am trying also to get the M10T PRO to work in 5g SA mode for a test network.

Using the setedit app, I can see the setting to enable/disable 5G SA, but dont have android permission to edit it.
The image posted in post number 4, i have that menu, but 5G options are not displayed. Would appreciate some advice on this if anyone has had any luck/progress ?

MIUI version is 12.0.10.0(QJDEUXM)
Android version 10 QKQ1.200419.002

When going to change the setting in setedit, I get the message
"setedit does not currently support editing this table. pm grant by4a.setedit22 android.permission..WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS

Consult the Android documentation for more information"

Edit:- Ive managed to get write access to the setedit app, and changed the setting "fiveg_sa_user_enabled" to 1, but not seeing any additional menu options to set to 5g SA as a result ?

How were you able to give write access to it?

 

[wexfordman]

How were you able to give write access to it?

I followed this


"By default, for your protection, Android prevents you from modifying the SECURE and GLOBAL tables. If you have Android Jellybean or later, you can remove this protection from an ADB shell using the command "pm grant by4a.setedit22 android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS".

As I said, it gave me write access to.change the setting but still not able to set the device to 5g sa mode.

Anyone with any advice would be really appreciated

Hello,

I am using Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G, and facing the same issue. I followed your instructions and was able to access the Global Table of UE. However, the fields that needs to be enabled (0>1) are not available in the Database. Kindly see the attached screenshot. Is there any other solution to activate the 5G SA mode?

Thanks!

You are O.T here because we discuss about Mi 10 in all its variant and not about Mi 11.

Surely someone will be able to give you more help.
Many thanks.

Is it possible to get sa mode on mi 10t using this method
