I am newbie and might be on wrong section but didnt find any help, hence this post.
Have T989 [Tmo Hercules / SGSII]. Followed all the steps and flashed to CM 9 RC 2. For some reason I only connect to 3G network, played with APN settings but no 4G. I see some screenshots of T989 running CM9 RC 2 with 4G.
What am I missing?
I even tried UVLE1 and UVLC8 - didnt help.
Using DARKSIDE.EVOLUTION.3_v8_TDJ I do see 4G.
have you tried running some speed tests to see if you still get H+ speed?

Go under setting about phone status and what does it say for network type? Mine reads hspa almost everywhere. I have read a couple threads and some posts in other threads where people weren't getting as fast of speeds on cm9 compared to when they ran gb. I think it's a cm9 issue not exactly sure.

Flashed touchwiz jellybean Rom. Had no lte. Flashed back to rogers original 4.0.4 and no longer have lte or 4g. Do I have to get into an lte area before It registers? I have my tab with me and it's getting 1 bar lte 4g in a weak area. Please help.

Go into your Mobile Network settings, check "Access Point Name" and see if you're on the LTE apn.

I've had the same experience with three other roms I've flashed on my roger gs3. I have been through apn settings on all of the roms, but I still dont get LTE. When I recover the stock rom it goes back to 4g/lte every time. So, I'm sticking with the stock rom until there is a definitive fix. I'm nowhere near good enough at this to figure it out myself.
I suggest, if you want to keep receiving lte service, that you restore your stock rogers rom.
From what I've been reading on xda threads; it seems that this problem is central to the at&t/rogers/bell phones.
Roms I have tried:
d2can OTA keeproot
aokp_JB_d2att-ota-eng.task650-ktoonsez-10.3.2012c (this one is so bad ass; I might just put up with no lte)
Liquid smooth d2att jb v.2.0
NexusMod-Triune-II-(UX)-20120918-NIGHTLY
Are you basing the no lte status solely on the icon in your notification bar, or have you ran speed tests to confirm your network speed?
speed tested everytime

No, unfortunately, when experiencing these 3g/h+ instead of 4g/lte problems, on the flashed jb roms, my download speeds are consistently under 5mb/s. When restored to stock rom they go up to almost 10mbs on 4g. I haven't been able to test the lte speeds yet because rogers towers somehow manage to miss my street, but are covering the college five blocks from here. I'll test again next time I'm on campus and see how they both fare.
There seem to be so many variables involved. I'm just trying to eliminate them one by one, so as not to confound the results.
I was thinking that the aosp roms don't usually have an lte icon.

I had to give up on ktoonsez &task rom and go with CM10 nightly. This is after trying out cm cfx official rom, to no avail.
I was able to get 4g with cfx, task 650&ktoonsez,but only for a short time then they would automatically either lose signal, or switch to a different APN all together. Now I have around 13 mbps on CM10 with H+. I'll settle for that instead of sketchy hit or miss with the others. I'd like to figure out how to fix Task650&ktoonsez rom. I prefer that one so far after playing around with them all a bit.
Hello xda. I need some help with my GS3 and LTE. I rooted my phone on day one and have moved from rom to rom. I live in the SF Ba. Area and they are turning LTE on. Using sensorly I found some LTE areas, but my phone won't connect. I have tried different roms: CM10, Paranoidandroid, Ktoonsez, and now Liquid. I started with radio LJ9 and am now on LJ7.
I hope someone can give me a few ideas on what to try next. I heard updating the PRL can help, but I don't know how to do that.
Sorry if I did a poor job of searching, I am on my tablet, on 3G, and I couldn't find much
To update your profile and prl (prl is for roaming and doesn't effect lte).
menu -> settings (scroll to the bottom) -> system updates -> update profile / update prl
I'd odin stock JB or ICS and test LTE that way.
Though all of the ROMs you listed should have perfectly working LTE.
good luck
I flashed back to a Odex stock, and updated my profile and prl (just incase). I still don't seem to get any LTE.

Don't feel bad im goin thru the same thang had the phone four days rooted it the second day i had it NO LTE to date wtf sprints trippin
samsung GSIII rooted
I know! Don't you love paying 4G price for 3G service? Fo real!
Well I'm not 100 % on what fixed it but it suddenly started working. Speed seems a little slow. 5mbps up and down. Don't people get in the range of 10 to 20

On CM10 (and all AOKP ROMs based on it) eHRPD authentication is not working right yet. I think they're close to a fix, but for right now, if you're in an area with a weak LTE signal; you're gonna have some problems
Ok guys, here i go again. I recently installed the "smooth ion" mod thingy, after a little help from yall, and i love it. However, now my data icon is not 4g, but either an "H" or 3g, it switches constantly. I was kinda bummed at first until i realized that my speed was much greater, around 2.5 to 3 mps dl. I only get about 1 mps at best when on 4g. why is this?
Well...4g is not shown as H(3.5G) on Non ATT firmware, so it should be faster. Make sure your apns are correct (assuming AT&T)

well, as it was new, it always said 4g, and even 4g lte when i was in okc, but now it is an H mostly, and 3g flickers on momentarily sometimes. I had made a nandroid backup of the original rooted ics before i did the smooth ion thing so i went back to it and the 4g was back.
yeah what is confusing me is that i did the same smooth ion flash by ganeshbiyer but my icons were still there...
running ATT firmware

Smooth Ion installed new SystemUI inwhich controlled the signal icons. Assuming you got LT28at, you got to understand ATT market called 4g when it really H (3.5G). So when you are not using ATT stock firmware it will unhide the reality - that's why you see the flicker between 3G & H. About the speed it should be the same as whichever firmware you used all depend on signal received. Could be that one firmware gave you better signal reception than anoher.

I have been having some serious issues with data ever since rooting and flashing custom ROM on my Galaxy SII which is on Boost Mobile. When i first got the phone before i did anything to it, i was getting pretty good 4g and 3g speeds. After rooting i noticed that my 4g and 3g speeds had dropped significantly. I called boost they said there is some work being done in my area, which i think was crap. I was running baked ROM 4.2.1 JB and it ran nicely but i had no 4g connection by this point and had only 3g connection but VERY slow. I thought to restore my saved backup of rooted stock and maybe my speeds will come back. NOPE 4g still doesnt work at all and NOW 3g doesn't work either. I've checked APNS it seems to be correct, but my connection status is still "mobile network state disconnected" . Oh, also i've tried flashing different modems and kernel repacks cause i know using custom stuff can bork ur 4g.
Can someone help please?

Right now i am on Stock Rooted, Using modem FI27. Before i was using baked ROM as my daily driver on FL24 Modem, thats when i noticed 4g had gone completely. I am using AGATs kernel FI27 repack. Its strange though my baseband says Fi27 but build number says FL24 on the end. Should it be that way?
oh btw my 3G came back, it just took forever to connect. But my 4g still wont work, it connects to the network but it still says "mobile network state disconnected".
SOS HELP
when I flashed AOKP's rom and using this rom almost half year
there has a crazy problem is about the T Mobile H+ signal
I remember that I used the stock rom showing the 4G icon everytime. and speed really fast.
but now I'm using the AOKP's rom when you using the H+ maybe just five minutes the network signal change to E(EDGE) or 3G
and network just stopped alittle while like 5-25 seconds then returned back to H+ or H
the problem make me crazy,
I searched in google sometimes but I didn't find any answer, maybe I just use wrong keyword on it.
so, anyone knows this issue? and how to solve that?
AOKP was released a 4g_signal.zip but it could not work right now on the android 4.2.2 ...
It happened every AOKP rom. when I flashed and use it
network signal is really instability.
It's not an issue.. the TMO S3 has only been supporting the HSPA+ bands at most and that is our 4G. When you flash an AOSP ROM it will display H+, which are the bands your on when your network is originally displayed as 4G on a stock ROM. H+ is displayed while data is being transferred. When no data is being transferred your data will bump down to UMTS or EDGE, which displays as your 3G, to conserve more battery. It's something you're gonna have to get used to on AOSP ROMs
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Actually, no it does not jump down to Edge when there is no data pull (and you'll use MORE battery, because its search for the 4G network). When there is no data pull, it will display (on custom ROMs) as 3G. When it pulls data, it will show either H or H+. You already know that T-Mo network (exception of the LTE cities) has no difference between their 4G and 3G.
Now, you said that you're getting edge every once in a while. Try flashing a new radio. But, I'm confused, because you said you're trying to flash a 4G zip onto 4.2. There hasn't been a 4G zip even for a long time on 4.1. It won't work with most 4.1 ROMs, as the last time I saw a 4G zip it was for a specific updated of AOKP. Anyway, how long has the issue been going on since you started dipping down to Edge at certain times?

My mistake. That is what I was initially referring to. I should have said H+ displays AFTER data has been pulled. Thanks for clearing that up for me.
