Bought my phone form Rogers. LTE was working fine.
Was going to USA and paid an online company to send me unlock code.
Used it and went using Tmobile which only has EDGE data.
Just got back swapped back in my SIM From fRogers and can only get EDGE speeds.
Tried reboots rmoving SIM card.
Also made sure settigns were correct for Rogers APNs and also that toggle was on for GPS/HSPA/LTE.
To no avail.
Briefly, I toggled on and off the apn setting from ROgers LTE to tethering LTE and low and behold it seemed to work.
But now it is back to stuck on EDGE and nothibg I am doing can help.
Can this be a byproduct of the unlock?
Is my LTE faulty?
I s there some hidden menu where perhaps a setting can be changed for a fix?
I am depserate as the alternative is to return the phone and they are on backorder everywhere now.
have you gone into settings> more settings> mobile newtorks>and taken a look at your access point names and your network mode?
yes
I even confirmed with Rogers and settings are correct
Are there any service mode type ways to switch on/off data? Maybe I inadvertently did something
What area you in now and was before.
Did you tried different locations like out of your house,work, out of city.

Try setting it to WCDMA only, and then use the network operators button to search for networks

Will try this again. though not sure of that option.
for me under network mode it gives me choice of GSM
HSPa
BOth with auto connect
or those two with LTE auto connect.
Right now if I try to select HSPA only ct it does't change and reverts to GSM/HSPA/LTE (auto). Seems it will only accept a choice that allows it to default back to Edge (GSM)
Anyone know if there are some deeper settings to

If I change the sim and put it in my old s2 I get 3g speeds right away so I should at least be getting that and I know form the day I got it that LTE was working well in my home.
it depends on what they flashed maybe they flashed a different antenna because the freq's of the tmo version are diff than the rogers version
Wasn't a flash. It was an unlock code for Rogers entered at the invalid SIM screen. They were not told which network I would be using it

Try resetting factory settings again, and flash this Rogers modem.

Can I flash the modem if I am not rooted.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Does flashing the modem show evidence of such?
I.e if this attempt at a fix fails my recourse is to return the phone as defective. Don't want there to be any evidence of tampering that could void my warranty
You can flash modem.without rooted.
Zip.file.modem.through cwm or .tar modem file through Odin.
And if you are under 14 days of purchase, reset your phone to get your log minutes under 30.
But I guess you.won't need to do.that, flashing.modem and reset should work.

Well did factory reset before risking modem flash.
Low and behold while i had to reinstall and setup everything again, LTE is now working again.
Not sure what happened. Will ultimately root at least to back things up.

I fixed it by flashing a new ROM and wiping all the data!
Someone please help! I don't know what to do!
Nevermind, I think I fixed it!
I fixed it by changing the band to GSM Preferred/GSM ALL but now I only get E. Any way I can get back 4g?
Change it back to automatic or Odin kl1 modem from rootzwiki team kang post.

I changed it to auto, and i'm getting signal. Time to check if 4g. Thanks.
EDIT: It shows signal, but Im not getting any. Can't send text or browse web. Time to odin modem.
I flashed it, and I went to settings and looked at the network mode: It was GSM only. I changed it to auto mode. It seems to still get and send texts, and I looked at band selection with the dialer code, and there wasn't a star besides anything. I think it might've worked, but I still only get e.
By flashed I mean odined. Lol

I had same issue and this is how I fixed it.
disable data connection and switch your phone off, remove the back cover and remove sim card completely. Then re-insert sim card and turn your phone back on and it should ask you to re-enable data connection once it boots up.
let me know if this helps

I did this, but it didn't ask me to turn it back on, so I turned it on manually, and still only E.

Other phones receive 3G? Perhaps T-Mobile is servicing your area? This has happened to me but I had no control over it.

I am not sure if this is the right place to have this but I have a tmob s3 that I am trying to get the 3G on att to work. I know the lte won't work but the hspa should thou since it has the proper bands for it.
I have been able to get the 3G to work by manual setting it by the dialer but it won't make calls until I set to it back to automatic it. It won't go back to 3G until I manual set it back
I have tried every apn settings and nothing doing...
I am not sure but maybe I need to try a different radio? I am currently on the latest jb radio.
Any ideas?

I think you need to make sure your phone sim is unlocked. You can do it by some method on these boards or you can call your tmobile and ask them for the unlock code.

If its unlocked you should only need to pop the att sim card in and it shoudl automaticly set the att apns(on CM10 or any aosp rom, rebuild TW rom), and get hspa+, tho if your on stock rom you need to add the apns manually since the apn.xml inside framework-res.jar dosnt have them.
Yea its already unlocked and it gets service it just doesn't make the switch to hspa+ unless I manual force it to do so and it doesn't always work sometimes it will show now service

im having the same issue, how do i manual for? im running on 4.12 aokp
I just bought this stock unlocked telus s3 yesterday and have everything working so far and love this phone. Esp since a jb update is apparently coming soon too.
I haven't setup my apn settings for LTE capabilities yet because I'm afraid of the battery drain and not knowing how to disable the LTE only (leaving hspa data on).
I can't find a setting or toggle anywhere to toggle LTE only? Do I need a third party app for this?

I just bought my S3 a few days ago from TELUS too, but I believe I've stumbled across what you're looking for under Settings -> More Settings -> Mobile Networks -> Network Mode...
Somebody can correct me if I'm wrong, but it certainly looks like this should do it.
you can also access the hidden menu and there is an option to disable the LTE. Not sure if it officially works or not but it's worth giving it a shot.

I've found that. That's the only place where I see anything LTE related. I was hoping for a toggle or switch.

I have a rooted, s-off Verizon htc one m8 that has its noble networks very messed up. I often go into Pimp My Rom to access the phones hidden settings and force 4G when my 3G is too slow. But for some reason about half of the network options immediately switch to a different option. When LTE is selected and I try to switch to EvDo it flashes EvDo for a fraction of a second and then switches to LTE. When auto it on (which includes EvDo) it never switches to 3G. I fear I will never be able to use 3G which is the only service available at my house. I was also playing around with the three radio bands, another setting in that menu. Nothing seemed to change and I don't even know what those are.
On a side note, is there any way to check the status of htc security (s-on/off)?

Boot into bootloader, and it will say either s-on or s-off in one of the top few lines.
What ROM? If a custom ROM, you sure its one that supports Verizon?
Its stock

Try the following:
1) power off device, remove sim, then turn it back on leave it for about 5min, power off, re insert sim then power it back on.
2) Call VZ tech support and see if they can swap out with another phone, just tell them you phone randomly drop signal, they will attempt to re provision your device or ask you to do factory reset and if still not working, tech support (not customer service) could over night another brand new phone to you no charge. Good luck!
Thanks , got a new phone.

Both my wife and my white note 4's appear to have signal issues. I think the crappy signal and drop calls is only happening at home (west bend, wi). I have never had this problem with US cellular and because both our phones are having this problem, I wont to believe its not the phones (or maybe it is?).
Is there a number to update the towers for Verizon? How should I go about this?
