Okay so on my wife's epic 4g running cm9 under the settings there is a 4g section and her toggle wimax works. On this phone on the same rom I don't have that option. And the wimax toggle doesn't work. Is this just temporary or does this phone really not get wimax. Cuz I don't get lte where I live and 3g is so slow.

Yes, the Galaxy Nexus doesn't have WiMax, its not just your ROM. It has EVDO (3G) and LTE (4G). Since LTE isn't even starting to launch for a couple more months, expect to keep waiting.

You seriously are saying you bought the phone and didn't know it would not do wimax ? Don't think there is very much wimax in phoenix either...as I live at 75th and mcdowell....can't say that there is much 4g just a couple places that I ever connected and so spotty not really usable

Is the 4G toggle different than lte? I am running an AOKP rom and since changing from stock I see h+ and 4g never lte anymore.

I had that problem, I think it's the cosmetic setting that got screwed. I flashed another ROM and then back to stock to get the LTE icon back on.
- format System
-flash Kyan's ROM (caused it was based off of Rogersbuild or i747M)
- confirmed that it was showing LTE, then I flashed the stock Rom.

Thats because AOKP And other rom are based on AT&T not Bell so you will see 4G vice LTE.
I work for Bell and I have done a good 15 updates since it was released for customers. Still says H+lte. I know wanamlite had the att 4G, looked way cooler but thats the only rom I have tried that has had the 4g so far. the Bell update doesnt say that.
It is all based off of csc
Rogers uses 4g and lte, Telus says h+ and 4g and bell has h+ and lte. All same thing just their idiotic way of differentiating.
Mixing firmwares can produce some interesting results.
Waiting for JKay mod on GT-I9300
telus shows 4g or lte. people always think that im on lte when it says 4g and am 'wowed' by its speed. then i tell them they're actually on 3g.
happened to me for some reason 3g and and 4g are what I get.

I think It's the same thing but I like the way the 4g Icon looks better then the H+ one.
Ok firstly I'm from the UK where 4g connection is something very new and only major citied have it, now when I use a normal Rom statusbar it says h+ but using omega statusbar it will 4g, can somebody kindly explain the difference? Sorry for the noob question just always wondered this.

h+ stands for HSPA+, or "3,5G". It is an evolved version of 3G, offering higher speeds. But not close to 4G, of course. See wikipedia for more details: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GSM
Unless you got a carrier-locked CDMA model from the US, AFAIK, you have a international GSM device, only capable of connecting to GSM/UMTS networks, and using any of their data protocols (EDGE, 3G, HSxPA). Any ROM that tells you that you're on 4G, they're lying to you, purely an appearance tweak.

Make sure you're in an lte area
Make sure your apn settings are correct and you have selected lte in the cell settings.
Also something to keep in mind you'll only get 4g speeds when it's needed aosp roms have a throttle built in to save battery.

I did all of that but what would I do to make my phone use LTE? My speeds are fast I just want to make sure I'm getting what I paid for.

LTE coverage
[LTE is not yet at 100% rollout status. I am getting LTE backhaul, which is what most of the US will end up doing. It will take time to be on the "backhaul" but have you checked to see if you are in an LTE coverage area? You can purchase an LTE plan, and it say you have basic LTE on your AT&T app, but that DOES NOTmean that you have it. Check with your local store. For whatever reason AT&T doesn't have most of the backhauled cities listed.

Right? I hate that it has an ugly 4G simple as LTE and H+ for 4G
