Hey guys,
I followed the instructions for ICS flashing with my LT28i, had some ADB troubles but ultimately ICS installed fine. Now trying to flash with .111 baseband, Flashtool goes really fast through its process, says flashing is complete. Tried it twice already, and when i boot the phone back up an LTE option does not show up (gsm/wcdma/wcdma preferred+GSM). Phone connects to data and only shows me H icon.
are u in an LTE area? if so try a speed test.. u should be getting LTE speeds with that baseband... just b/c it doesn't show in network doesn't mean it doesn't work. at least thats what i gather from the other threads. i'm not in an LTE area so i can't test anyway.
Definitely getting HSPA speeds. Back on GB (.111) i got 40Mb down and 11 up, now getting 14D 3.6U. Maybe i need to score some 3rd party app to force bands?
Here's a fix for those who have the issue. Dial *#*#4636#*#* to get to the hidden service menu. Then go to phone information. From the list select LTE (preferred)/WCDMA/GSM. That should fix the issue. If it doesn't select LTE(preferred)/WCDMA/GSM, just turn off radio then turn it back on and select LTE(preferred)/WCDMA/GSM. If it all works, you should see 4g icon instead of the H next to the signal bars.
thanks for the responses. when im on that page what i see is LTE(preferred)/WCDMA/GSM. H icon next to data connection. Whether the radio is turned on or off i cannot change that option in order to change it back. Do you know if the config menu (the one that shows you active bands like LTE_BG5 and stuff) should actually say LTE, or is that just a soft-config? Those seem to be gone as well.
thanks

it should say 4g. not lte. It takes a couple of tries to change that option to LTE(preferred)/WCDMA/GSM
UPDATE: reverted to .111 then flashed .233 without baseband, 4G working well.

hey, im having the same prob. i flashed .111 then .233 like you did but am still having the same issue. my network type shows hspa:11, but does that indicate the network in my area?

Did you do a full wipe before flashing .111? If not try that.

Hi,
I have a 2 day old Gnex, rooted and running paranoidandroid(ICS) now.
I used to own a LG Optimus One in which I usually used to toggle between 2g and 3g when I want to use the internet. However, when I try to do the same in the gnex, it refuses to get a lock on HSPA signals. I see the H symbol and when I try to open any webpage, the symbol disappears and the signal bar is grayed out.
Edge works perfectly however. I've also tried this with the stock ics , cm9 rc1. It fails everytime.
I'm not sure whats missing here. I also tried to toggle between GSM only / WCDMA only in the testing menu. It still is of no use.
My current baseband is I9250XXKK6. From the little homework I've done, I figured its for the European region. I live in India. Could the 3g/hspa frequency band be causing any trouble? If so, which baseband should I try?
Please assist.

But when i use it in my old phone, the toggles work fine, so does the data network!
It is my first forum post and I believe I am posting it in the right section... I tried finding a similar problem to mine, but seemed to only find people that wanted to turn LTE off instead of on. The AT&T Galaxy S3 phone is rooted and I have gone between ics and jb roms and have gotten LTE to work every time. The problem is after I reboot the phone I lose LTE. I get 20+ up 10 down on LTE. After I loose LTE I get around 8 up 4 down.
I have tried.
1.) Re-installing a rom which gives me LTE until I reboot phone.
2.) I have tried installing modems from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831898. If I have lost LTE after reboot, I can (9 out of 10) get LTE to work again after installing a modem. I lose it once I reboot the phone again though and am unable to flash a new modem to get LTE back to working and it won't unless I do 1.) again.
3.) I have made sure apn settings are on the correct pta lte setting. Usually most of the rom's have that already set to begin with.
4.) I have tried the *#2263# to change it to LTE. This WORKS and will reboot my phone into LTE everytime, but I lose being able to make phone calls, etc. From what I understand as well, I am unable to go to 3g/2g after settings LTE ALL and I don't want that either...
It is the only problem I have had with this phone. I notice a lot of times after I install a rom and reboot, it upgrades, and I lose LTE. I install a modem and get LTE back. I reboot phone normally without doing anything to the phone and it upgrades apps again and I lose LTE. That is the only conclusion I can come to as to why I lose LTE after reboot.

I am in the same boat as you. I can force LTE with *#*#4636#*#* and setting it to LTe only. But I lose phone calls and if I restart it goes back to WCDMA.
What rom are you using some roms don't have the late icon they have 4g instead. Also double check that you have the right lte apn enabled

Yea I realized that jb roms do not show 4g lte, they just show 4g. I check to see if I have LTE by doing going to the Settings->About Device-> Status and looking at Mobile network type... and/or a speed test as well.
I came from and tried these rom's
Year of The Dragon

WanamLite Smooth,Stable & Battery
Right now I am on Stock TouchWiz Jelly Bean PORT (JellyBean 747 Milestone 3)
I have gotten LTE speeds on every single one of the roms until I reboot phone.
[Update- Best Solution So far]
I found that using the WanamLite Rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1782732 enabled me to get LTE back fairly easy.
Everything is in the Settings->More Settings->Mobile Networks area.
1. I entered in a new Access point and just put Name: "pta" APN: "pta". You can fill out the rest like the MMSC, MMS proxy, etc but I did not need to.
2. Then went to Network Operators and waited for it to search for the networks (takes a minute or two). It showed up for me as two options being Maritime and AT&T. I selected Maritime and registered it. I was not able to register on AT&T and I don't even know what Maritime is. However,
3. I went to Network mode: Set it to GSM/HSPA/LTE(Auto mode). I get LTE every time.
Every time I reboot I can get LTE to work by doing steps 2.) and 3.) and is a little annoying, but better than having to flash a rom every time I reboot and lose LTE. I would like to try and find a solution though where I wouldn't have to do this every time I reboot.
[EDIT] There might be roaming charges, but by disabling Data roaming you should be fine. I believe you might incur charges if you try connecting to this network while on a cruise and have data roaming enabled. I have not done a lot of research on this so I could be wrong.
Ok so I have an unlocked LG Nitro HD with custom ROM (CM10) and it has a very weird problem. I've tried two different AT&T MVNO SIM cards (AirVoice and Consumer Cellular) both have the same issue. My data signal keeps changing from H to H+ and occasionally to 3G like every few seconds regardless of where I am using the phone even outside. I don't understand what the problem is. What could be the issue?

Data does work but it seems to drain the battery with the networks constantly switching and on occasion I get a "No Connection" screen on certain apps, I guess because if I open an app while its swapping networks the app cant connect. It's strange.

I had another odd problem, just a few minutes ago was texting someone and all of a sudden phone froze while vibrating then restarted! Don't know if that's a bug in CM10 or what, maybe the network swapping is as well.

I tried installing CM9 and it appears to have fixed the problem, the phone doesn't try to connect to the H+ network anymore, only the H network and seems to stay on it so far. I did see it quickly go over to the 3G network but it doesn't appear to be causing any issues, it went right back to the H network. However, I really wish the CM10 ROM worked right, as CM9 is so old...

CM10 is snappy and oh so buttery smooth, I give you that. On another note, did you try any other CM10 variants? I'd give tdmcode's AOKP a spin. He says he might have fixed that problem you were talking about in his build.

I downloaded the CM10 ROM. It seems to behave slightly differently. It stays on H normally, but when I start to do something with data, it will go to H+ until the data loads, then go back to H. So far no disconnects, I'll keep you posted. Right now I have very limited data, I'm switching to T-Mobile as soon as UPS decides to deliver my SIM card (just found out they have a 1900MHz HSPA+ network in my area!) I'll be able to test it better then, but for now I'm trying to stick to wifi, especially since I wasted so much data tonight playing around with this stuff, lol.

Ditto... H and 3g are subsets of each other. Namely they can handle simultaneous voice and data 4G (h+) and lte can only handle data. So it switches back to H so you can receive and make calls plus it uses less battery. If you are on either 4G techs and receive a phone call while downloading it will automatically switch to H from h+ or lte, this is why. The only way you will never see this is on an AT&T rom where it only has 4G and lte icons.

H+ isn't a subset of 4G is it? I know that the CM's have separate icons for 3G/H, H+, 4G, and LTE.

That certainly is debatable but the US's largest carrier considers it to be, it behaves like 4g, H+ may not be as fast but it is 90%+ as fast in most markets small enough to not make a noticeable difference as far as people's perception and the technology behaves like LTE in a lot of respects, CM is international so it just conforms to International norms so that's why you get H+ AND 4G (LTE) designators.

Yeah that happens when going back to a tw rom from an aokp. What you have to do is backup your current rom, restore a backup of your stock rom once you're in there go to more settings you should find the option for lte in there choose it wait for it to connect and once you're connected just restore you're rom and you should have lte.

This is slightly different than the guide posted above and has worked for me every time.
Go into your phone dialer. Enter *#*#4636#*#*. Go to phone information, and find the drop down menu. Select "LTE only". This should force LTE. Then you can select LTE/... Whatever one you want, and it should start connecting to LTE by default. If it didn't work, then LTE is unavailable to your phone for whatever reason.

So if i am not in a LTE area will i still have 4g cause right now it bounces between H+ and 3g. it does not hold H+ very long then goes to 3g for few minutes then back and forth and download speeds are crap. I was getting .22MB.

If you are not in an LTE zone, you cannot connect to it. If your phone says "4G", it is referring to LTE. "H+" refers to HSPA+ which is more accurately 3.5G. If your phone is switching between H+ and 3G, it may just be corresponding with your data activity, where H+ is active and 3G is inactive. It may also be because of poor connection, which could too be why you're getting bad download speeds.

That's strange. Try downloading this app.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.andirc.lteonfoff
I've been working on a fix since a long time now. If you are in SD community then you prolly know me. Anyway I was able to fix this on two of my phones and it's working fine. I tested for 12 hours now. I'll also tell you in the end what problems I'm seeing. I'm also working on a fix for that.
I noticed that a service is started when the fallback happens but if I kill that service the network also dies. But if you follow the below method it safely starts a new service which kills the one that's responsible for killing the 4G/LTE
1. Upgrade your phone to 13B firmware
2. Root 13B
3. Now download Shortcut Master lite app from play store.
4. Now add these shortcuts to your favorites in the "Shortcut Master lite app". You can search for "LTE" and click on search button
LTEBandSelection
LTETestMain
LTE System Selection
CDMAPreference
5. Now click on "LTEBandSelection" and enable all the bands
6. Save and reboot
7. You now need to enable your data and turn off your wifi. Make sure your phone is in Global mode (in settings >> Mobile networks >> System select)
8. After your phone is rebooted open "Shortcut Master lite" app.
9. Now tap on LTETestMain
10. Select Click on CDMA preference.
Now choose Band preference and select "any"
P_REV_Preference ---> "MOB_P_REV 3
This is important.. EVDO Revision --> Rev A
11. "LTE Connect w/o IMS PDN" must be checked
12. Now go back to your main menu in shortcut master lit app
13. This step is very important. Changing the timeout is important. Tap on LTE System Selection
Except "Scan duration" add a couple zeros to all the other timers. For eg: T_mpsr timer (Min) is 200
The fallback timer will reset itself after reboot. But don't worry the configuration is already updated with the new value. For some reasons the shortcut master lite app is not picking it up.
14. Now finally click on "CDMA preference" in the main menu and make sure it has the value you set in Step 10
At step 10 or 13 your network should go away and your phone should complain about "no network". That's fine. just ignore the message.
Now finally reboot your phone. That's it. You should now have 4G LTE and it won't fallback to 3G or H+
The only problem is when I'm on a call my 4G LTE is dropped to 3G/H+. But after I hang up it goes back to 4G LTE after 12 seconds. I don't know if it's an expected behavior. But I'm trying to see if there is a fix for that.
I tested this with Tmobile. Make sure your APN settings are correct.
Not working for me on Cricket (AT&T). Still will always go back to H+, 4G LTE only works when I select CDMA.

Awesome, thank you! worked for me T-mobile.
it initially didn't work but I had to turn data off then on.
It also cycles me to 2g speed for a few seconds sometimes but that may be due to poor signal in building.

Yeah It's due to the poor signal. I got that too. You can check your signal strength using LTE discover app.

Is 13B the main thing in the solution? I've changed these settings before on 11A and wasn't fixed. I tried these numbers on 11A and still don't work.
Also, unless a phone supports VOLTE, it'll fall back to 3G/H for calls.

I tried in 11A and it didn't work for me. So I guess it needs 13B.
So I tried various combinations last night for AT&T/Cricket, but I was not able to get it to work. No matter what I tried, when I had 4G LTE, voice wouldn't work and whenever voice worked, I was back to H+.
If others are reporting that T-Mobile works reliably on 4G and nobody can figure out how to make this work for AT&T, I guess it's time to switch to T-Mobile.

No. Hold on. I have a solution for ATT too. I tried something last night. Actually while I was working on a solution for ATT I found that we don't even have to go through the steps I mentioned in my OP to solve the problem. It boils down to invoking a service and killing a native VZW service.
The ATT solution I have works but in low signal area 4G fades and it doesn't fallback to 3G or H+. I had to recycle data to get 3G or H+.
It's Working!!!!!!!!! Thank you!!!!!!!
You just made my life much better now!
I finally have a phone which is great and also finally have good reception!
I Love U!

Yes, that same thing happens when you switch to CDMA mode with AT&T. Voice doesn't work then (obviously), but it also doesn't fall back to H+ automatically, when you lose 4G coverage you pretty much lose signal all together.

Yeah I know. I also know why that is happening. Actually I think it's a bug in the baseband firmware. But we can fix that issue by just overriding the command that was sent by baseband firmware.

Do you have a working fix for AT&T/Cricket? Is it different than the T-Mobile?

Ha! You are repped!
What root did you use? and steps?
easyroot?
did you split the file and merge it back?
I must have really bad luck or something. It doesn't work for me. The Tbsr_cdma timer resets back to 2 at reboot.
Edit: Appears to be working. Nice job!

Root? I just flashed the rooted sys image. That's it. instead of copying it in the FAT32 memory card just copy it to your phone's internal and you don't have to deal with split and merge stuff
If it drops out of 4G on a call then you're talking on 1X. So no video chat, no HD voice and no voice + data?
