        I can't find out much about "agms". There's a little bit of information on the web about AGMS Global, based in Singapore. A couple of sites give APN settings for AGMS Global.

        Weird.

          said in RedPocket SIM card doesn't work:

          MI Activation Lock: OFF

          Does this mean that the phone is OEM unlocked and I would not need to go through the process of waiting a week for it to be unlocked before I can install UT?

            Another data point is that I have an old T-Mobile SIM for which the account is closed. I used to use it on my Pixel 3a. It doesn't connect, but it does fill in the T-Mobile APN correctly.

            Does this mean that my N9P is NOT carrier locked? That it will work with T-Mobile if I get a new SIM card?

              I got a Mint Mobile SIM card and it is working. I believe that it is over T-Mobile. T-Mobile APNs came in by default. It would not connect to AT&T using my AT&T SIM card (not an MVNO, but directly with AT&T).

                Argh... voice and text work, data does not. This one is complicated. (Note, I'm still running Android on this. Haven't gotten to unlocking the boot.)

                  Yeah, this is really weird. It beeps, then works, then stops working, then switches to T-Mobile, but the APN is set to the Mint settings given in Mint's website.

                    With Mint Mobile, it doesn't really get data. Almost zero connectivity for data. MMS is unreliable. Voice and SMS okay.

                    My conclusion here is that this phone is not a good option for the USA. I'm going to return it.

                      @lsitongia Maybe @TotalSonic would give you a feedback. If I'm right, he does use a Redmi Note Pro in the USA without any issue. Even phone calls now work with VoLTE.

                      Redmi Note 9S Stable

                        @lsitongia do you have correct android version?

                        what is my device?
                        adb shell getprop ro.product.name
                        should print like "joyeuse_global"

                        adb shell getprop | grep incremental
                        should print

                        [ro.system.build.version.incremental]: [832]
                        [ro.build.version.incremental]: [832]
                        [ro.odm.build.version.incremental]: [V12.0.2.0.QJZMIXM]
                        [ro.vendor.build.version.incremental]: [V12.0.2.0.QJZMIXM]

                          @uxes Correct Android? I had whatever it came with. 10.something. I wasn't running UT. I was only starting the process. I couldn't get data, so I couldn't unlock the phone with Xiaomi. I wasn't close to installing UT yet.
