[Magisk][Module] OnePlus 5GHz mod

[Thomasvt]

Hi,

I just got my Google WiFi 3-kit and it seems that the channel they work on (149) wasn't supported in my country (NL) so I made a simple Magisk module to change the region to [EU]

This 'fix' is simpy a change to "wifi-service.jar" which can be located in /system/framework/

Updates v7

• Update OOS to 4.5.10

• Add support for Magisk v14.0

Would there be any benefit to flashing this if I'm in the US, or do they all have the NL flag?

The wifi region is selected based on the SIM in your phone. Most people won't need this, care, or notice.
Second, this is probably illegal since it changes your phone to use frequencies that are not allowed in the users home country. Is anyone going to get caught or in trouble for this? Unlikely. But it also won't be useful unless you've purchased hardware that broadcasts on frequencies not allowed in your country. IE, Google WiFi hasn't been released in Europe yet and doesn't officially follow EU frequency range. Which is why it's useful for @Thomasvt but not for anyone else.


@PokemonTotalWar: Long answer? No.

 

[Thomasvt]

@PokemonTotalWar: For US users, probably not, except if you use channel 12/13 from the 2.4GHz spectrum. > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels
@Raharazod Actually Google WiFi is released in the EU. (France, Germany and the UK) http://www.androidpolice.com/2017/06/26/google-wifi-may-coming-france-monday/ as for my country. All Apple products, and my laptop happily use the 5GHz network without any modification except my OnePlus 5.

OH! I thought it was still pending release over here. Wasn't really keeping a close eye.

Well it shouldn't.
There ARE 5Ghz bands that are allowed in the EU, just not all of them. I was assuming that your module enabled ones that weren't otherwise allowed.

After installing module I've got my phone bootloop. May you define place for the original wifi-service.jar file during module installation.

Thanks, Kinger

Just use 'magisk mount' and remove it from /magisk.

What O2OS are you running?

Thank you for quick response

Thank you, restored system easily. Problem I'm not running O2OS system on phone I've crashed, installed on different phone by mistake.

Thank you, cheers!

I got another Problem on oreo closed beta 2.

After update from 4.5.14 my 5ghz wont connect with settings in router auto channel..

This means channels 36 above until 52 wont work.
If i sett a special channel like 52 above my 5ghz wifi connects to my op5..

Did OnePlus messed something up?

Located in Germany op5 A5000

Hi Dimontiman,

Have you tried with the official OxygenOS Open Beta 1? Since leaked closed beta 1 and 2 were not made for public and lots of bugs.

Did it give any errors when adding the module in Magisk?

If still doesn't work on official open beta 1, then perhaps an update to this module would be required perhaps.

Hi Dimontiman,

Have you tried with the official OxygenOS Open Beta 1 (8.0)?

Yes both open beta 1 and xlosed beta 2

Same Wifi Problems

 

[Thomasvt]

I do have a Oxygen (leaked build 1) version on my github: https://github.com/thomasvt1/extendwifi/tree/4.5.2 (just download as zip).

I haven't been able to get smali working yet with the open beta 1. I'm not sure if the closed beta one works on the open beta.

Edit: My version from git still does work with the open beta 1. Just tested.

Edit2: New updated version for Open Beta 1: https://github.com/thomasvt1/extendwifi/tree/O2_Open1 [just downoad zip and use in magisk]

And then just the setCountryCode method as per this guide;

This is for Open Beta 1

 

[Thomasvt]

Small update for Openbeta 1 - the region didn't apply every boot so I fixed that;

Hey can you update this version to magisk repo as i cant use the zip on magisk

Sorry the magisk repo version will only be the stable version of OxygenOS.

Maybe try a file explorer to select the zip, I know ES File Explorer works when using the 'file way' and not the 'normal android way'.

I hope this helps!
