For those using the app.....Keep only one APN. That is 'vox' for both internet and voice

i have an ASUS Zenfone Laser ZE550KL

it supports ntel bands. worked fine with LTE on Lollipop firmware.

when it received an update to Marshmallow, it stopped working with Ntel. wouldn't hold a signal.


i have stumbled on a solution for that on this page: https://www.asus.com/zentalk/thread-116511-1-1.html


it involves using fastboot to flash this modem file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5kaWlZcQC-TTnpYMVZ5VGdTaHM/view


just thought i'd share in the slight chance anyone else has same issue.

USUAL CAVEATS APPLY. O.Y.O i am not responsible for anything, neither do i have any solutions for you in the event of a screw up.

all i know is, i'm on CM14 and i can now use my ntel sim inside my device. thats all


Edit: should probably add that for some reason it works fine in sim 2 and not in sim 1.

I have no idea why

Is anyone using the vox HD app on a rooted device?

I keep getting validation failure error and Ntel help line is not useful.

I'm wondering if the app checks root status or something because I've done all recommended. Sim is in phone, APN is vox, LTE works fine.....

You can root with magisk+ magisk supersu and use Auto Magisk. I don't know if automagisk will work with none magisk root.

Get the Alcatel Pop4 plus, it's 36-38k on konga and does 4G on all the GSM networks including Ntel. It only spectranet and Swift that it doesn't cover.

Thank me later..... Cheers

Always provide the full background/product information when you seek for help, so people can better decide whether they can or cannot help you or point you in the right direction. For instance, it would be better if you give the full model name of your MiFi.

Good luck.

Thot it was just me, same thing here in yaba. Sometimes you don't even get signal at all for almost an hour. At this age and time NTEL is still acting like a toddler learning to walk....... SMH

It's back up again but it's epileptic, up and down but functional. So go ahead and try it especially if the network is okay over u.

I only get a maximum of 2bars here, most times i'm stuck on one. So don't let us scare you.

Which device did you root?
I don't think the app would have anything to do with whether the device is rooted or not, as long as your APN settings are correct.

you bought a mifi?

the swift and spectranet mifis are the easiest to hack. all you need is the code. i'm sure you have an old spectranet or swift mifi lying around
the desktop modems are the ones that are difficult, because apparently they require some hardware tweaking. i came this close to buying one of those, but the duplicity of the fellow selling turned me off and i went to pc village to buy a tplink modem. i almost bought the ntel desktop modem, which really and truly is a superior product , but i wasnt sure if it is locked.

i live in festac, and once i have 4 bars i can get 1 - 2mbps

this is their customer care line 0700 683 55483. no need to write multiple emails to ntel over the weekend.
where do you live?
Re: Subscriber Options for UNLIMITED Internet - WORTH IT? by pheesayor(m): 5:17pm On Nov 21, 2016
even if it is a router, it can be unlocked remotely except swift which I had to go to Ikeja to unlock on saturday for 4k.

By the way oyb, I'm a festac breed and I still go there weekends grin

i've taken it up with Ntel directly and even they are clueless on the matter so i've given that up.

the app won't login on the phone no matter what, and they say the app is 'not compatible'. which is BS, but i don't have time to waste on irrelevant shit

The ntel signal here was somewhat erratic yesterday. Today, it disappeared totally for about two hours, as far as I could tell; but it's been back and steady for the past four hours or so (Lekki area.)
