Like always, I was stupid again today, so I bought this A31 phone today.

Which brand? I honestly don't know except that when I switch it off I see a Tecno logo. Why one would purchase a phone brand that has no explicit description still baffles me. My instinct tells me it is an Oppo A31 though, because when I did a factory reset, the Bluetooth name states just that. That isn't the reason I am typing. The problem now is, I am unable to use 3g and 4g on the phone. I even tried *#4636#*#*

The options states that 4g/3g/2g would be switched automatically. However, only 2g works. I have tried every thing. Someone should help me please.

the phone that you just bought is a fake phone. My advice is to return the phone back to the person that sold it to you and collect your money.

There is no way you can use 3g on that phone. I am talking from experience. I had a phone with huawei body when I switch on the phone it showed tecno logo. I tought it was a tecno phone but when the phone finish booting. I noticed that the UI Is different from that of tecno, some apps in it are similar to that of huawei. When I checked the network setting I saw 2g/3g/4g option, which made me think that the phone was 4g but when browsing I noticed the phone was slower than 3g. Not until I went the Sim management in the phone that I found out it was EDGE (2G) And not 4G. I tried all my best to improve the network speed like tweaking the Apn setting. But it was to no avail.

Install Device Info app, open the app and post a screenshot here.. It will tell you what you need to know
