I recently got an eSim for my Globe postpaid and for some reason I can now get a 5G signal even if I don't have n78.

I think you're connected to NR41 - which I believe is the more widely used 5G band by Globe specially on NSA mode.
You can check the connected band(s) using the *#0011# code.
I'm seeing mixed results when searching, can you confirm if the SM-S9110 Snapdragon has an unlockable bootloader, and if the exynos procedure works to root it?tried this with the s21 HK variant (sm-g9910) -- no B3 or 28. Globe user here. My Oneplus 8T fone can get 5g just fine.
Hello. This is my first comment here.
That's a good news for us using U1 variant. Here on our town only smart has 5G and they are using n78 only so I have no 5G signal. I hope they will add n41 soon.
BTW after the June security update the hidden menu for selecting bands like on your photo no longer available. But you can still use *#2263# to lock bands.
Thank you to the man who share how to unlocked the CA using QPST tool it works on SM-N986U1 varriant.
I also tried the trick on my old note 9 SM-N960U1 but it doesn't work because based on my research the configuration is on the 00028876 file and I can't find anything on how to edit it.
if someone know please tell me. Thank you!
Here's the proof of LTE+ connection using TNT sim.
Edit: I found the way to make my note 9 supports CA and it was succesful

6Hi! I created this thread for SM-N9860 HK/TW/CH variant users from Philippines.
The GOAL is to make our units work with our local carriers':
- 4G Carrier Aggregation (4G CA) (i.e. 4G+/LTE-A).
- 5G network
UPDATES/SOLUTIONS
How to access ServiceMode menu on pre-OneUI 3.0
How to access ServiceMode menu on OneUI 3.0/3.1
I just saw a method for opening the menu again for Android 11. I saw this on the US thread.
Just check the code on my N9810 BRI
This method only works on Qualcomm versions
I use *#*#276633683782#*#* on Google phone dialer
and it brings up a service mode screen.
Press [5] RF Test and choose [2] PREF MODE SET
（or other options also works ）
It will show Please use *#2263# for mode set
Then just tap three dots on right top menu and choose back
It will bring you back to the main menu.

It was a consolidated effort.xUtsumi and kent800129.....Greetings form the UK
Huge thank you to your both.
I had almost givem up with this dam phone. Although it is my wife's , no 5g had stopped me importing one for myself.
In the UK this phone got 5g on networks Vodafone and Three but not on god dam EE which is the biggest UK network.
I am going to link your post in the other thread!
Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou Also the only necessary part on enabling 5G is the first part. I just included the next 2 parts to increase signal strength and diversity stuff. Although I don't understand what they do fully, I've researched a little and enabling them will not hurt battery life while increasing the strength of signal. Correct me if I'm wrong on this. 4
L2 are config files for layer 2 of 5G protocol stack. The other directories are a ML1 (for layer 1) and RRC (for layer 3, which contains the CA control files for 5G. ). Think of them as rules implemented by samsung. Other files that I changed using QPST are the ff for those interested (use Copy data file from PC):
IMPORTANT: Always backup the original files that you will be replacing or deleting.
- carrier_policy.xml and carrier_policy.xml_Subscription01 : added 5G Stand Alone bands for PH telcos. SA bands are disabled by default even if NSA/SA is selected in dev menu.
- policies.xml : updated so that changes on the above files will not reset on sim change.
- lte_feature_restrictions.xml : added PH telcos to the Dynamic Spectrum Share (DSS) network list
- also deleted policyman/persistent_items to refresh the contents
- edit: also deleted cap_prune and cap_prune_Subscription0 files inside nv/item_files/modem/nr5G/RRC (layer 3). This removes defined limitation on 5G CA.
You can check the enabled bands on your phone using this app3
