Using Android 9 for this phone, the phone works fine but the tethering does not work. There is no way I could figure out to get it to work properly, following various instructions on the community forums and talking to the mods, I have been able to get it to work. I have the exact same phone with Lucky Mobile and tethering works with that. Also note that it's not possible on Android 9 to edit any of the APN settings, they are disabled. I hope the engineers at Public Mobile will fix this issue at some point.

That's a phone problem with the APN settings. Tethering not working is a software issue too. You might have to add APN type dun.

With those numbers yes but if you could provide the full make/model/sub-model we could be a little more sure.


it is  Umidigi  A5 Pro Global  Version


Based on those specs provided earlier, yes the phone will work.  However, some customers have had some difficulties configuring APN settings required to make use of cellular data when using phones from this brand that are running Android 8.1 (although this issue isn't limited to this one brand).


Thanks for the infor.

Yes. You can use this phone on PM network 😉

 

Public Mobile utilizes the following frequency bands:

4G LTE and LTE Advanced

700 MHz, 850 MHz, 1900 MHz and 2100 MHz downlink and 1700 MHz uplink (AWS)

 

HSPA

850 MHz and 1900 MHz (UMTS)


glad to know that  Thanks 😀😀

Make and model are only relevant to determining the available bands on the phone.  This information is already supplied, so don't really need to know the phone model anymore.


I did say "be a little more sure". But fine. Just trying to be helpful.
